The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 666: The Fifth Layer Heaven

Feng Ling cracked a joke casually, but everyone else just looked at her speechlessly.

Ling Feng shook his head helplessly, "How can you still be in the mood for jokes with such a serious matter at hand?"

"Is it that serious? I don’t think so!"

Pouting, Feng Ling then said, "Don’t worry, everyone. I’ll head back shortly and as soon as I figure out the situation, I’ll come and notify you all immediately!"

After speaking, she turned to look at Li Fei’er, "I will definitely explain your mother’s situation!"

"Thank you, Sister Lingling."

"Alright, I have a long flight back and my subordinates are probably anxious waiting for me. I’ll head back to the provincial city to meet up with them!" Feng Ling said with a smile as she stood up.

"Should I walk you out?" Ling Feng offered.

"No need, you should spend more time with Huaihua. Yu Linglong’s matter is what you should really care about now!" Feng Ling replied.

"Okay then."

Ling Feng didn’t insist, and watched her leave.

It was only after Feng Ling had left that Zhou Yi suddenly remarked, "Did you all notice? She’s no longer the young girl that she was when she first arrived!"

"Indeed, Sister Lingling has quite the air of a bossy big sister now!" Li Fei’er nodded in agreement.

"It’s like that. The Black Dragon Sect is without a leader, and she has no choice but to take on the responsibility and force herself to change," Ling Feng nodded in acknowledgment.

After chatting for a bit, Ling Feng turned and asked, "Sis, I’m a bit in need of Spirit Stones lately, can you help me find some?"

"Don’t you still have some?" Ling Yao inquired.

"I did, but I promised Director Chen fifty pieces, and now it seems I don’t have enough!" Ling Feng said with a wry smile.

"Fifty?"

Everyone was taken aback to hear this, and Zhou Yi couldn’t help but say, "You’re really generous, giving away so many for free?"

Ling Feng let out a chuckle, "Of course not for free, it comes with conditions!"

"What conditions?"

Zhou Yi was curious upon hearing this, being part of the security bureau herself, she wondered what benefit Chen Ping would offer Ling Feng in return.

When he finished talking about bullets and such, Zhou Yi pursed her lips, "That trade doesn’t sound profitable at all!"

Although things like bullets were scarce, they could still be purchased with money. In her estimation, even if it was a truckload of ammunition, it would only cost around twenty million yuan at most.

But fifty Spirit Stones?

The price was simply incalculable!

Seeing her reaction, Huaihua couldn’t help but laugh and say, "Sis, aren’t you also part of the security bureau? How come you’re standing on Ling Feng’s side now, acting all concerned like a housekeeper, afraid he’s getting a bad deal?"

With that, Zhou Yi’s face turned red, and she glared at her, "What nonsense are you talking about, girl!"

"But what I’m saying is true!" Huaihua said with a light laugh.

Seeing that she had put her previous burdens aside, Ling Feng relaxed and laughed, "That’s right, what Huaihua said is on point. If the main bureau knew you were sticking your neck out for me, I bet they’d be fuming, right?"

"..."

As everyone teased her, Zhou Yi’s face became even redder, but she bit her lip and remained silent.

She didn’t know how to respond!

Fortunately, Ling Yao changed the subject, sensing her embarrassment, "As for the Spirit Stones, I’m afraid I can’t help you there!"

Ling Feng’s face, which was full of smiles before, suddenly stiffened, "Why not?"

"There are no Spirit Stones in the First Layer of Heaven, and there were only three in the Second Layer Heaven, which you’ve already discovered. The Third Layer isn’t much better; Qian Qian found those as well!"

"What about the Fourth Layer Heaven? I found quite a few in a cave there before!" Ling Feng quickly inquired.

"Yes, but that’s the total reserve of the Fourth Layer—there is no more!" Ling Yao said.

Ling Feng was suddenly speechless!

He had just been boasting to Chen Ping, and now he was slapped in the face so quickly—wasn’t the retribution a bit too prompt?

After feeling helpless, he remembered he had promised Chen Ping to deliver the Spirit Stones in two days, and his face suddenly twisted into the likeness of a bitter melon as he looked at Ling Yao and said, "Sis, no matter what, you have to help me think of something—I’ve already blown my own trumpet!"

Ling Yao gave him a disdainful glance and said irritably, "How am I supposed to help you? Spirit Stones are rare to begin with, who told you to blabber nonsense?"

Ling Feng: "..."

Seeing that he was indeed worried, Li Fei’er also felt upset, but then a sudden inspiration struck her, and she said, "Actually, there is a way!"

"Hmm?"

Everyone turned their heads and all looked at her!

"Qian Qian and the others are exploring the Fourth Layer Heaven, and it seems like they’re about to finish. Once the Fifth Layer Heaven opens, there must be Spirit Stones in there!" Li Fei’er said!

"Right, how did I not think of that!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Feng was dumbfounded and stood up without another word, dashing out immediately!

Time was of the essence; since he had nothing else to do, he might as well help Xun Qianqian and the others hurry up with their exploration!

Arriving at the Fourth Layer Heaven and not knowing where the three women were, Ling Feng headed straight for the Giant Spirit Root. Upon arrival, he asked loudly, "Where are Qian Qian and the others?"

"Southwest, thirty kilometers away."

Ling Feng nodded, "How is their progress? Are they about to complete the exploration?"

"According to the ratio, there’s five percent left."

"Got it!"

Ling Feng sprinted towards the southwest, thinking that five percent was nothing—he could finish it quickly and strive to do so tonight!

Running wildly, he soon saw the figures of Xun Qianqian, Joanna, and Miao Ruoruo.

The three women were battling a giant sea turtle, which was bigger than any he had seen before—it was one size larger!

However, they had already developed a tacit understanding with people covering for each other and attacking. The three wore different colors, resembling three butterflies fluttering and dancing in the sky—a beautiful sight!

Ling Feng watched from a distance for a while and only approached quickly after they defeated the sea turtle, asking with a grinning face, "How did it go? What’s the loot like?"

"Ling Feng, why are you here?" Joanna asked.

"I’m here to help, aiming to finish exploring this place as soon as possible and open the Fifth Layer," Ling Feng said with a smile.

All three were stunned and asked in unison, "Why?"

"It’s a long story; let’s walk and talk!"

Ling Feng gave a smile, not minding the giant sea turtle, and stepped forward to continue walking.

As they continued the exploration, the three women heard the reason, and afterward, Joanna smacked her lips and complained just like Zhou Yi, "You are really generous!"

"Don’t worry, once the Fifth Layer opens, we will have more Spirit Stones to use. It’s not a big deal to be short of a few dozen!" Ling Feng said with a laugh.

Xun Qianqian glanced at him and said, "What if the Fifth Layer doesn’t have any?"

Ling Feng: "..."

After being speechless, he glared at Xun Qianqian, "Don’t jinx it—how could there be none!"

"Hmph, that’s hard to say!"

Xun Qianqian retorted with a roll of her eyes and a pout.

The four of them talked and continued forward. Although only five percent of the area remained unexplored, it was still a substantial area, so they needed to hurry.

However, unexpectedly, just when they thought they could easily finish the last bit, the ground beneath the four of them began to shake violently!
