Ye Feng had just arrived at the Sea God Palace when he felt a violent tremor from the seabed not far away.
Initially, Ye Feng didn't think much of it, assuming it was just the commotion caused by the creature in the giant cave.
However, he soon sensed something was amiss. Besides the tremors, there was a fluctuation of spiritual energy emanating from ahead, which immediately caused him to frown.
Although the spiritual energy fluctuation wasn't very strong, it clearly wasn't natural. It felt more like the result of a fight.
Driven by curiosity, Ye Feng quickly activated his underwater detection ability.
In an instant, Ye Feng's vision expanded from his immediate surroundings to a distance of a thousand meters.
Soon, he witnessed a scene that excited him. Two colossal creatures were battling on the seabed nearby, exchanging blows and seemingly enjoying themselves immensely.
Both creatures were enormous, each measuring seventeen to eighteen meters in length, their massive bodies sending shivers down his spine.
Ye Feng squinted and blurted out, "Xiao Bai, Xiao Hu?"
Indeed, the two creatures fighting in the distance were his great white shark, Xiao Bai, and his orca, Xiao Hu.
Seeing these two wouldn't normally be cause for excitement, and their fighting wasn't strange either, as they often sparred playfully.
However, the difference this time was that they were using spiritual energy in their combat, which greatly surprised Ye Feng.
This indicated that both of them had successfully cultivated the techniques he had passed on to them.
Filled with excitement, he quickly swam towards the location of the fight.
Soon, he arrived at the spot where Xiao Bai and Xiao Hu were sparring. Both creatures had their bodies covered in spiritual energy, constantly colliding with each other.
While their fighting style was clumsy, they were indeed capable of using spiritual energy, which made him incredibly happy.
"Good job, you actually managed to cultivate successfully!"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's voice, the two creatures immediately stopped.
"Master? You're back?"
Seeing Ye Feng, they also showed signs of joy, quickly swimming to his side and rubbing their heads against him repeatedly.
"Alright, alright, you two giants, stop rubbing! Tell me quickly, when did you succeed in your cultivation?"
Being nudged by two colossal creatures, each over ten meters long, made Ye Feng uncomfortable, and he quickly interrupted them to ask.
"Little Eight, the octopus, was the first to succeed the day before yesterday. He then guided us two, and we only succeeded yesterday!" the great white shark, Xiao Bai, quickly explained.
Ye Feng was astonished upon hearing this.
He hadn't expected Little Eight, the octopus, to be the first to succeed, let alone guide the other two.
However, he didn't dwell on it and simply called them all together.
Currently, only Little Eight, Xiao Bai, and Xiao Hu had successfully cultivated.
Among them, Little Eight had the highest cultivation, reaching the mid-stage of the Houtian realm, while Xiao Bai and Xiao Hu were at the early stage of the Houtian realm.
Ye Feng was somewhat amazed by Little Eight's talent and comprehension, managing to cultivate so quickly and improve his cultivation so rapidly.
This would likely be considered exceptional talent even among humans.
After Ye Feng understood the situation, he passed on some martial techniques to them.
Previously, Ye Feng had only taught them internal cultivation methods to absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth, but not any martial techniques.
Now that they had successfully cultivated the internal methods, it was time to impart some techniques and martial skills.
However, Ye Feng only had a few cultivation methods and martial skills at his disposal, and he wasn't sure if they could cultivate them successfully.
Without overthinking it, Ye Feng taught them the "Stacking Waves Palm," a water-attribute technique that should be relatively easy for them to cultivate.
After doing this, Ye Feng finally entered the Sea God Palace to check on Little Black.
Little Black was coiled up in the center of the Sea God Palace, motionless. It appeared he hadn't fully refined the Black Dragon Pearl yet and wouldn't be waking up anytime soon.
Ye Feng paid it no mind and found a spot to sit cross-legged and begin his own cultivation.
Meanwhile, at a bar in the provincial capital, Tang Zhiyang and Zhao Yanxuan were enjoying themselves with beautiful women and fine wine.
After drinking and eating their fill, Zhao Yanxuan suddenly asked, "By the way, didn't the Rakshasa Killer Organization issue a kill order for Ye Feng yesterday? Why haven't we heard any news yet?"
"Huh, that's right! I almost forgot you mentioned it! I'll call and ask right away!" Tang Zhiyang said, quickly making a phone call to inquire.
However, after several attempts, no one answered, which made him wonder, "Damn it, what's going on? Why isn't anyone from the Rakshasa Killer Organization answering?"
Hearing Tang Zhiyang's words, Zhao Yanxuan felt an inexplicable sense of foreboding and frowned, "No one's answering? Could something have happened! I'll have someone investigate!"
After speaking, Zhao Yanxuan immediately sent a message to someone.
Not long after, he suddenly received a message that shocked him.
"What? How is that possible?"
Zhao Yanxuan, usually a refined gentleman, suddenly looked stunned, his mouth twitching.
Seeing this, Tang Zhiyang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Yanxuan dazedly handed his phone to him and said, "Last night, the Rakshasa Killer Organization was wiped out overnight!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zhiyang immediately stood up and shouted, "How is that possible? That's the Rakshasa Killer Organization!"
On the other side, in a high-end hotel belonging to the Jiang family, Sun Manzhu, Jiang Dong, and Wang Teng were all frowning, their faces filled with worry.
Jiang Dong suddenly spoke, "Boss Sun, are we just giving up on this big piece of cake?"
Sun Manzhu frowned upon hearing this, "Give up? How is that possible? It's just a small Sea God Company. If we give up like this, where will the face of my thousand-billion-dollar Sun family go!"
"Then, what do you plan to do?" Wang Teng quickly asked.
Sun Manzhu frowned for a moment and said softly, "I haven't thought of anything yet! But what I find strange is, what kind of background does the Sea God Company have that the Ghost King Killer Organization would rather return the money than assassinate him!"
Jiang Dong said, "Could it be that the money we offered wasn't enough? How about we offer more money? If that still doesn't work, we can find other killer organizations!"
Hearing this, Sun Manzhu's eyes lit up, and she slapped her thigh, "Damn it, that's a great idea! How did I not think of that? Let's do that!"
Immediately, Sun Manzhu picked up the phone and called the Ghost King organization again, this time increasing the price tenfold.
However, the person from the Ghost King Killer Organization shook his head and said, "Miss Sun, I advise you to abandon this idea. Forget ten times the price, even a hundred times we wouldn't dare to accept!"
"The other party's background is unimaginably powerful. Not only us, but the entire southeastern province, and even the surrounding provinces, have no killers who dare to take this mission. So, you should give up!"
"By the way, let me tell you something else. Yesterday, a killer organization named Rakshasa issued a kill order to your target, and they were wiped out overnight! That's all I have to say, take care of yourselves..."
After the person from the Ghost King Killer Organization finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone.
Hearing this news, Sun Manzhu and the others were instantly petrified, remaining in a daze for a long time...
