Chapter 1488 - 1487: Hotel Attack
Xia Lan shook her head, "None of those you’ve mentioned are the right ones. The Mount Jiuhua I’m talking about is where Nuwa once stayed, to the northwest, about two thousand kilometers from here!"
"Oh, okay, I don’t have an issue with that."
Ling Feng smiled and then asked, "But neither of you are ordinary people, why would you want me to take you there?"
"You don’t understand."
Xia Lan smiled, "There’s something left behind by Nuwa there, but to awaken it, we need a drop of mortal blood. Ling Ling and I couldn’t think of anyone else who could do it, except you."
"Uh, is that so?"
Ling Feng was at a loss for words, thinking that to them, he was just a mortal!
But this wasn’t meant as a derogatory term since they were the divine essence of Nuwa, and he really was a mortal in comparison.
So Ling Feng nodded, "Alright, if you two are in a hurry, we can set off now!"
"Great!"
Xia Lan nodded, "Ling Ling has also materialized a physical form now. The three of us can take a flight to get there faster. As for the subsequent journey, you’ll need to arrange it!"
"No problem, leave it to me!"
Ling Feng nodded and immediately agreed.
Afterward, the three of them left home and went straight to Longyuan.
The reason for coming here was that Ling Ling needed an ID to board the plane, and the quickest way was to find Zhang He.
Zhang He didn’t ask many questions and directly helped get one, then the three went to the airport.
Everything was planned out. After they arrived at the airport, they were just in time to catch the flight. Ling Feng immediately purchased the tickets and boarded the plane before takeoff.
Since it was Sato Saori’s mother and Ling Ling, Ling Feng specially booked business class to ensure they were comfortable.
After a few hours of flying, they arrived at Yinzhou City by dusk.
This is a famous city in the northwest, one Ling Feng had only heard of before but was visiting for the first time.
Seeing it was already late, continuing their journey was unrealistic. So, after reaching the city center, Ling Feng booked a hotel on his phone.
The hotel’s standard was also quite high. Upon seeing it, Xia Lan nodded in satisfaction, "The environment is decent!"
Ling Feng sighed to himself; just one room cost over ten thousand, yet it only resulted in a "decent" from her.
He couldn’t say much, so after letting the two rest early, he turned and went to his room.
This was not a presidential suite, just a simple suite.
Ling Feng sat down in his room. Since he’d left in a rush, Mo Jiaolan wasn’t aware yet, so he called her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the call connected, Mo Jiaolan immediately asked, "Have you arrived?"
"Hmm? You know I left?" Ling Feng asked.
"Of course, we all know about it!"
Mo Jiaolan said and then asked, "Everything going smoothly?"
"Yes, very smoothly. We’re resting at the hotel now, setting off in the morning!" Ling Feng replied.
"That’s good. I suggest you rent an off-road vehicle with good performance. I checked out the destination, and the roads ahead aren’t nice." Mo Jiaolan advised.
Ling Feng laughed, "Alright, I know."
Then he changed the subject, "Everything okay at home?"
"No worries, everything’s well arranged, you don’t need to worry!"
"Alright then!"
Ling Feng nodded, then asked, "I’m bored over here, should I teleport back to be with you?"
"No, this matter is significant. It’s more important that you take care of them!" Mo Jiaolan immediately responded.
"Alright then."
Hearing this, Ling Feng had no choice but to drop the idea.
After exchanging a few more words, he hung up the phone. Seeing it was getting late, he got up and went to the bedroom.
Even while resting, Ling Feng didn’t relax, habitually monitoring the movements in the corridor outside his room.
This had become a habit.
As night deepened, the hotel grew quieter.
Ling Feng had already entered dreamland when suddenly two figures appeared in his divine sense, emerging from the fire escape.
Both were dressed in snug outfits, looking like black martial arts uniforms.
Initially, Ling Feng didn’t pay much attention, as guests appearing in the corridor was normal.
Unexpectedly, upon seeing these two stop at his door in his divine sense, Ling Feng immediately awoke.
The two stood at the door, then took out a palm-sized device, attempting to unlock it!
Ling Feng sat up in bed, wondering, "What’s going on? Thieves?"
After all, this was a five-star hotel. How could such a thing happen?
Ling Feng thought that the security in Yinzhou City shouldn’t be this bad.
He didn’t move, just sat on the bed waiting, wanting to see what those two were up to.
Moments later, with a click, the device in their hands actually managed to open the door!
Ling Feng was speechless, thinking how unlucky they were to target him, wasn’t this courting death?
Divine sense revealed the two tiptoeing inside and entering the living room.
They were very cautious, glancing around, then looking toward the bedroom, hesitating without acting immediately.
Ling Feng sat on the bed, waiting for them to enter.
The two quietly stood for almost a minute before one of them pulled out a black object from their waist, looking like a bamboo tube.
Then he placed the bamboo tube at the bedroom door slit and gently pulled, releasing a white mist.
"What the hell?"
Ling Feng thought, are they trying to drug me?
His curiosity piqued, he remained still, merely holding his breath.
With his current abilities, he could reduce his breathing rate to almost zero for several minutes without any problems.
Thus, even if the white mist was toxic, he wouldn’t inhale much.
Moreover, with his inner spiritual power, even if inhaled, he could easily neutralize it.
Ling Feng wasn’t in a rush to act, wanting to see what those two intended to do.
A few minutes later, deciding the time was right, they gently pushed the door open.
Ling Feng leaned against the bed head, eyes closed, pretending to be unconscious.
The room lights were turned on as they saw him, they froze!
Then the two exchanged a glance, with one saying, "It’s still the wrong person."
"Next room!"
The other said and turned to leave!
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng nearly jumped up, thinking what did this mean, not targeting me?
As the two left the room and quickly reached the hallway, he scratched his head, getting out of bed.
The situation was becoming more intriguing; if not after him, could they be targeting Xia Lan and Ling Ling?
