Chapter 1366: Ambushed
Chapter 1366: Ambushed
"Maybe it’s your intimidating presence that scared them off, huh?" Zhang He said.
Ling Feng glared at him, then asked, "Director Han, what did the higher-ups say?"
"We don’t need to worry about it, the higher-ups have their own ways of handling it." Han Wancheng replied.
Ling Feng said, "Alright then, I was thinking of teaching them a lesson, but it turns out they’re pretty sly and reacted quickly!"
"The main point now is whether there are Spirit Stones in other places, just wait for my news!"
Han Wancheng said this and then hung up the phone.
Zhang He looked at Ling Feng, and Ling Feng looked back at him.
"So, it seems you don’t have much to do now." Zhang He said.
"You’re wrong, I still have to take Cheng Xiao back, go to the mountains to check things out, wait for the replacement personnel, and then arrange for Ah Tai and the others to return to Harbor Island. There’s a lot to do!" Ling Feng smiled bitterly.
Zhang He chuckled: "Compared to those Spirit Stones you collected before, this is nothing!"
"Why, are you feeling the pinch?"
Ling Feng rolled his eyes at him and turned to leave.
Zhang He chuckled: "Why would I feel the pinch? I’m just envious!"
As they talked, they went back to the office next door, where the authorization agreement was already prepared.
After Cheng Xiao signed it, Ling Feng asked, "Miss Cheng, shall I take you back?"
But Zheng Yitong quickly said, "No rush, Xiao Xiao hasn’t been here before, I want to take her around!"
"Uh, that’s fine too."
Ling Feng smiled and asked Cheng Xiao, "Miss Cheng, would you like to take a look around here?"
"Sure, I’ve already taken leave from the law firm, so I’ll stay." Cheng Xiao said.
"Alright!"
Ling Feng nodded, asked Mo Jiaolan to arrange things for them, and he and Zhang He returned to Longyuan.
Later, the two went to the office and took out the fax sent by Han Wancheng.
The Peng Family was sensible this time and explained everything thoroughly.
They actually didn’t know what was in the mountain area owned by the Cheng Family, they only received a secret letter from England instructing them to get ownership of the area.
After some investigation, the Peng Family learned that it was under Cheng Xiao’s name, so they targeted her.
Not only targeting Cheng Xiao, but also her father and stepmother. If all three of them got seriously ill, Zhou Yan would have the opportunity to take advantage and transfer the forest ownership to himself, then pass it to the Peng Corporation.
This method, one has to admit, is quite insidious.
But it’s understandable, straightforwardly buying that mountain area, Cheng Xiao would never sell it, so they had to resort to scheming.
After reading the document, Ling Feng frowned: "It doesn’t mention the identity of the people from England!"
"Hmm, I’ll ask around later." Zhang He said.
"Not sure it’ll help!"
Ling Feng chuckled: "This document might not be the original, Old Han probably didn’t want us to see the detailed content."
Zhang He was surprised: "Are you sure?"
"Ask him if you don’t believe me!"
Ling Feng said, getting up: "I’m going over to Ah Tai’s side first, we’ll talk later!"
"Why rush?" Zhang He asked.
"It’s a serious matter; I don’t want anything going wrong in between!"
Ling Feng said and directly teleported away.
After returning to the Nine Heavens, he didn’t go look for Ling Yao or the others, but went straight back to the deep mountains of Qianxi.
Upon arrival, the scene immediately shocked him!
Ah Tai and his three subordinates were lying on the ground, barely breathing!
Meanwhile, a few men in black were busy on the mountain!
Seeing this, Ling Feng became furious and charged forward with his blade!
His sudden appearance startled the figures, who immediately rushed forward!
They had no idea what a Teleportation Array was, so they didn’t destroy it; otherwise, Ling Feng wouldn’t have been able to return.
His sudden appearance also frightened the other side, thinking no one else would show up here!
Upon contact, Ling Feng’s hands showed no mercy, immediately slicing a man in black into two with the God Slayer Saber!
The remaining three were shocked, realizing the power of his Short Dagger, and immediately retreated, drawing their weapons.
Seeing them using slender Longswords, Ling Feng narrowed his eyes.
These three guys had Western faces, and he immediately thought of the word England!
Ling Feng didn’t want to waste too much time, as Ah Tai and his subordinates were still lying over there, so after a cold snort, he immediately used the Mind Soul Art on them!
"Ah!"
The three let out a scream and clutched their heads, collapsing on the ground!
Ling Feng stepped forward and tapped their acupuncture points, then turned to Ah Tai: "How are you?"
"I got a bit injured, but it’s nothing serious!" Ah Tai said with a bitter smile.
Seeing his face was as pale as gold, Ling Feng immediately helped him sit up and put a Medicinal Pill into his mouth.
The remaining three were the same; after taking the Medicinal Pill, their faces looked a bit better.
Ling Feng felt a wave of fear in his heart; it’s fortunate those foreigners didn’t deliver a fatal blow, giving him a chance to rescue, otherwise, he would have regretted it!
After stabilizing the three’s injuries, Ling Feng called Zhang He: "When can the replacement personnel arrive?"
"Shouldn’t take more than an hour, why?" Zhang He asked.
"There was an ambush, Ah Tai and they are all injured!" Ling Feng said.
Zhang He was surprised: "What a coincidence?"
"You better hurry, then come and take these three back for interrogation!" Ling Feng said with a deep voice.
"Got it!"
After hanging up, Ling Feng looked back at Ah Tai: "It’s all my negligence, if I had left Ling Yao or Little Yu here, you wouldn’t have been hurt!"
"These three appeared so mysteriously, we had no defense at all, can’t blame Mr. Ling." Ah Tai said with a bitter smile.
"Oh? They appeared suddenly?" Ling Feng asked.
"Yes, just like how Mr. Ling and others appeared just now!" Ah Tai said.
Ling Feng narrowed his eyes, glanced back at the three, and then went over to search them.
Soon, he found similar items on them, each one had a uniquely styled Ring!
Just like he used the pendant as a teleportation item, this Ring was obviously a teleportation medium too!
"Impressive, you guys also have a Teleportation Array!"
Ling Feng murmured, putting the Rings into his pocket.
At this time, Zhang He already arrived with Lin Xue, Chen Yan and others, and they took the three foreigners away after binding them. Ah Tai and the others were also sent to the Nine Heavens.
Ling Feng stayed, waiting on the spot.
Half an hour later, a team of soldiers in camouflage uniforms surged into the mountain, and an officer quickly approached: "Mr. Ling, the mining team reporting for duty!"
