Chapter 1700 1700: Wuliang Immortal Palace
These two organizations are known for their expertise in assassination, especially Watanabe Kazushi's people who are assassination specialists.
Apart from these people, what worries me is the Guimou Sect.
Ever since Ling Zhenfei dealt them a heavy blow in Tangcheng and the Provincial City, the Guimou People have seemed to vanish without a trace. Who knows if they'll return,
especially since I've invited so many celebrities. If something were to happen, I really can't bear the consequences.
As he thought about this, Ling Zhenfei became increasingly terrified, and the joy of having invited celebrities disappeared in an instant.
Ling Zhenfei thought for a long time and realized that the only option was to seek external aid.
Near Xianling Mountain, there are bound to be many cultivators, perhaps even those two from the Twin Dragons Society, whose strength seems to be at the Dawen Initial Stage.
But behind them is the Wuliang Immortal Palace, and who knows how many experts are there.
Ling Zhenfei was still a bit worried. What if the Wuliang Immortal Palace decides to join the fun too?
The people from the Wuliang Immortal Palace have invited him to join them, but he can't join now, so there's not much possibility of them helping him.
Ling Zhenfei couldn't agree to join the Wuliang Immortal Palace because the organization wanted him to enter with them.
If he had to choose between the Wuliang Immortal Palace and the organization without any strings attached, and if entering the Foreign Land Space was a must, Ling Zhenfei would definitely choose the Wuliang Immortal Palace.
The Wuliang Immortal Palace has been researching the Foreign Land Space for over a thousand years, so they must be very experienced. This time, they have gathered so much external aid and are determined to win.
On the other hand, the organization's research on the Foreign Land Space has only been recent, and they don't even know as much as he does.
Zhuang Jing said that a Pursue Heart State expert would join, but who knows if that's true.
After thinking it over, he realized that in this situation, if he wanted help, he'd probably have to turn to the organization.
With this in mind, Ling Zhenfei called Zhuang Jing.
It was already very late, and he didn't know if Zhuang Jing would pick up the phone.
But after a few rings, Zhuang Jing actually answered the call.
"Ling Zhenfei, are you dying? Do you know that you've disturbed my beauty sleep?"
Zhuang Jing's voice carried a hint of anger, yet it also sounded like she was teasing.
Ling Zhenfei hurriedly apologized: "I'm really sorry, I have something very important to discuss with you, which is why I'm calling this late."
Zhuang Jing said: "Alright, what you have to say better be extremely important, or I might really kill you."
Ling Zhenfei felt terrified inside; it seemed that no matter what, you should never disturb someone who's sleeping, especially a woman who's asleep.
"It's like this. Didn't we talk about the Foreign Land Space last time? I'm calling because of that."
Zhuang Jing spoke calmly: "So, have you finally made up your mind? I knew you were a reasonable person."
Ling Zhenfei said: "I can't not go, but I have one condition."
Zhuang Jing was a bit unhappy and said: "You dare to negotiate conditions with the organization? You really have some guts."
Ling Zhenfei said: "Actually, it's not about setting conditions; I just want to ask for the organization's help."
Zhuang Jing said: "Are you in some kind of trouble? Tell me, how do you want the organization to help you?"
Ling Zhenfei shared his thoughts with Zhuang Jing.
Zhuang Jing listened and paused slightly in thought. After a moment, she said: "This matter is actually quite simple. I'll report it to the top, and it should be fine.
Recently, the appearance of many cultivators near Xianling Mountain has already caught the attention of the top. I think the organization is looking for an opportunity to deal with this issue, and your request happens to provide them with just that."
Ling Zhenfei was very pleased after hearing this and said: "This matter is truly very important, and I hope the organization will pay attention to it."
"Don't worry, I'll inform the top. Alright then, I'm off to rest now. Once again, don't disturb me while I'm sleeping."
Although separated by mountains and rivers over the phone, Ling Zhenfei could almost feel the strong sense of intimidation from Zhuang Jing's side.
After resolving this matter, Ling Zhenfei finally felt at ease. It was already very late, and Ling Zhenfei went back to rest.
Early the next morning, Ling Zhenfei got up. With two days left until the fan festival, there was plenty of work to be done within these two days.
Because the fan festival had many sponsors, in return, the sponsors received advertising space. So starting from yesterday, the sponsors' ads began to arrive one after another.
In these two days, the sponsors would focus on setting up their ads.
The Xi Shan Resort Villa was also preparing. Starting today, guests would no longer be allowed to extend their stay at the villa.
Therefore, the Xi Shan Resort Villa would be vacant for a day to make enough room for the fan festival.
Although the Xi Shan Resort Villa is quite large in scale, the number of attendees on the day of the fan festival is enormous, making it impossible for everyone to stay at the villa.
So the option of accommodation had already been drawn in a lottery.
Even if someone couldn't stay at the Xi Shan Resort Villa, it wouldn't be a problem. The villa had arranged many shuttle buses to transport visitors to Binyang City.
Ling Zhenfei had already contacted several large hotels in Binyang City in advance, including hotels under the Xi Shan Group and those run by the Three Killers Club.
Some visitors chose to stay at a farmhouse in Qinghe Village.
Due to the influence of Xishan Manor, some farmhouses have appeared in Qinghe Village, and many people opt to stay at these farmhouses.
Staying in a farmhouse has its own unique charm.
Of course, these farmhouses claimed affiliations like being run by Ling Zhenfei's uncle's family, aunt's family, or neighbor's family.
In reality, aside from being neighbors, there's no other connection, but Ling Zhenfei pretends not to know about it, as it wouldn't be meaningful to make a fuss over it.
Since they all belonged to the same village as Ling Zhenfei, they see each other frequently.
These farmhouses conveniently relieved the crowd pressure of the fan festival. Ling Zhenfei had already instructed beforehand that these farmhouses shouldn't raise their prices just because of the increased crowd during the festival.
If any farmhouse was found exploiting the festival goers, Ling Zhenfei wouldn't allow them to continue operating.
These farmhouses were aware that if Ling Zhenfei truly didn't let them operate, they wouldn't be able to, so they readily agreed.
Ling Zhenfei knows that some rural people have a short-sighted view and think that with so many people around, they should raise prices.
However, they don't realize that gouging for this one time could greatly damage the reputation of their farmhouses or the Xi Shan Resort Villa.
Reputation works like this: One person saying something good can influence four or five others, while one person saying something bad can affect ten and more. It's the so-called good news doesn't leave the house, but bad news travels a thousand miles.
The villagers might not understand this, but Ling Zhenfei was well aware, which is why he used firm methods to prevent the farmhouses from overcharging.
