Chapter 47 Aunt's Surprise

What's going on? Ye Fei was at a loss. What exactly was his current situation? What had just happened? Recalling his appearance just now, Ye Fei suddenly had a thought: why did that image resemble a barbarian in a game? Could he transform into a barbarian?

At the thought of this possibility, Ye Fei became excited. If he could truly switch between two appearances at will, then wouldn't the secret weapon of his family be even more secretive?

Slowly recollecting, he felt that, after the development of his brain domain, Ye Fei's thinking ability was definitely many times greater than that of an ordinary person. He quickly found back the feeling from a moment ago, his body suddenly grew larger, transforming back into that beastly strong bald man.

At the same time, Ye Fei also discovered that in this form, he could possibly use some functions from the game, and the skills he had previously grasped became even more handy.

With a thought, two giant swords measuring a meter and a half long and twenty centimeters wide appeared in his hands.

After swinging them gently a few times, he moved his thoughts again, and the two swords disappeared into thin air. Ye Fei was overjoyed; not only did he possess the strength from the game, but unexpectedly he also had a storage space.

This space was not divided into grids like in the game but was a huge space of over a thousand cubic meters. Placing the two giant swords in this space made them seem insignificant.

Excited beyond measure, Ye Fei couldn't help but let out a deafening roar, then leaped off the Watchtower like a shooting star, disappearing in a flash. However, unbeknownst to him, not far behind in a balcony, two incredibly beautiful faces were staring at the direction where he vanished in disbelief.

Tian Lu was the chief anchor of Watchtower TV Station. Today, she received a task to personally interview the mayor of Watchtower, Liu Fengyi.

Unlike other officials, Liu Fengyi rarely accepted private interviews, but Tian Lu had a good relationship with her. They attended the same university, with Liu Fengyi being a senior when Tian Lu had just entered.

In an incident, Liu Fengyi helped her, and their relationship improved. They stayed in touch after graduation. The station director somehow got wind of this and sent Tian Lu to interview Liu Fengyi.

Though Liu Fengyi didn't want such a private interview, she couldn't refuse her good friend. So after work, she casually chatted with Tian Lu for a while. By the time the interview ended, it was already late in the evening. Liu Fengyi simply invited Tian Lu to stay over and return the next day.

Due to their busy work schedules, the two rarely met. Hence, Tian Lu agreed. They reminisced about old times that night and were getting ready to sleep when they heard a roar that seemed to shake the entire Watchtower.

Liu Fengyi, who had profound internal strength, immediately recognized that the sound came from the top of Watchtower. She felt a bit startled, wondering what kind of expert had arrived at Watchtower.

She knew that such a roar was impossible for her to produce even if she practiced for a lifetime. Moreover, she had never heard of anyone in the world being so formidable. Her martial instincts made her want to witness this.

As a journalist, Tian Lu's curiosity was even stronger than usual. So the two sisters quietly went up to the top floor.

Not knowing the temperament of this extraordinary expert, the two women didn't dare make any noise as they ascended the stairs very slowly.

When they reached the top and saw Ye Fei, who had transformed into a barbarian for the second time, Liu Fengyi felt a strange sense of familiarity with him. She couldn't remember where she had seen him before. Normally, encountering someone of his stature would be unforgettable under any circumstance.

Curious, Liu Fengyi was about to go over and greet the man when he let out another roar and jumped off the Watchtower abruptly. This left Liu Fengyi dumbfounded. She couldn't believe that such a skilled individual would attempt something like suicide.

Wouldn't he be in danger by jumping like that? It was inconceivable. Could he have some sort of parachute or similar device on him?

Considering this possibility, Liu Fengyi hurried to the edge of the terrace and, using her keen eyesight, looked down. Watchtower was brightly lit at night, and with Liu Fengyi's vision, she could see clearly. However, she found no trace of the big man, let alone a parachute.

There was no commotion below either. There was only one explanation: the man had indeed jumped without any aid and had landed safely.

How was that possible? Liu Fengyi even began to doubt if she was dreaming.

Contrary to Liu Fengyi's surprise, Tian Lu was extremely excited. Out of professional habit, she had brought a camera with her when she came up. She had captured the tall figure and his jumping moment. Now, she opened the camera and checked the footage, which was quite clear.

Excitedly, she couldn't help but say, "Fengyi, look at what I captured."

Setting aside her surprise, Liu Fengyi leaned in to watch the footage with Tian Lu. Seeing the figure again, that familiar feeling arose within Liu Fengyi. She was convinced she had seen this person before and even felt a sense of closeness to him, but she clearly hadn't met him.

"I didn't expect that today's interview with you would yield such unexpected results," Tian Lu said with excitement. She could already imagine the sensation when this news aired.

"Yeah, I never thought there would be such a master in the world," Liu Fengyi thought, her perspective completely different from Tian Lu's.

Tian Lu smiled, "I can't wait to broadcast your exclusive interview along with this. I'm already eager!"

"What? You want to air this video?" Liu Fengyi was taken aback, then said seriously, "No, this video absolutely cannot be broadcast."

"Why not?" Tian Lu asked, puzzled. "Are you afraid people will suspect he jumped off? I think as long as we explain, it will be fine."

"It's not about that," Liu Fengyi shook her head. "Have you ever thought about what consequences there might be when something beyond human understanding appears in people's sight?"

Tian Lu was startled, suddenly feeling a bit scared.

Thankfully, she had shared her thoughts with Liu Fengyi. Otherwise, if this video were broadcasted as she had initially intended, it might have caused panic. It seemed that one's perspective changes based on their position.

While Tian Lu had been thinking about making the news sensational, Liu Fengyi had already considered the larger implications in that moment. Compared to her, Tian Lu realized she still had a lot to learn.
