Chapter 76: Prioritizing Romance Over Friendship?
Chapter 76: Prioritizing Romance Over Friendship?
"Brother Ling, can I borrow your phone?"
"So, you still don't trust me?"
Ling Yunxiao raised an eyebrow. At this point, the highest level of Nightfall Realm cultivators they'd encountered was only at the Sea Realm, and they'd probably only just discovered the problem with Fatty's file. If they couldn't contact Fatty, he'd naturally go to Guangzhou and Shenzhen; they wouldn't miss anything.
"No, no, no... With Brother Ling protecting me, I feel very reassured."
Baili Pangpang waved his hands repeatedly, not daring to offend Ling Yunxiao at this moment.
"Brother Ling, where are we going now?"
Seeing Ling Yunxiao leading him into the deep mountains, seemingly wanting to climb them, Baili Pangpang asked in confusion.
"Oh, let's go catch a few rabbits in the mountains to eat. Don't be nervous. Even if we're no match for them, there's still a mount flying in the sky, isn't there?"
Ling Yunxiao finished speaking nonchalantly and continued walking towards the mountaintop. Baili Pangpang followed behind with a worried look on his face. Who would be in the mountains catching rabbits instead of hurrying when they're trying to escape being chased?!
Baili Pangpang dared not be angry or speak out, and followed behind Ling Yunxiao who was humming a little tune.
Just then, Ling Yunxiao's phone rang. He picked it up and found that it was Zuo Qing calling.
"Where did you and Mr. Lu go? Is it convenient for you to go to Changping now? The entire Phoenix Squad has lost signal over there. Xia Simeng's last distress message was very confusing. You and Mr. Lu should go there now!"
"Ok!"
Ling Yunxiao didn't mention that he wasn't with Lu Wuwei. Now that he was in the Boundless Realm and still had the Human Book and the Human Brush, he could go and save people. Thinking of this, Ling Yunxiao raised his eyes to look at Baili Pangpang. His gaze narrowed slightly as he considered what was about to happen, but it seemed that things had gone smoothly without any major incidents.
"I'm going to Changping now, and I'll be passing through Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Do you want me to take you with me?"
"Of course I will, thank you Brother Ling for saving me! Brother Ling, you're like my own brother."
Seeing that Ling Yunxiao had given up on using him as bait, Baili Pangpang had no reason to refuse. He happily got up, several times faster than when he came.
Ling Yunxiao smiled and nodded, glancing at the void. Garuda King immediately landed, and the two quickly climbed onto its back. After confirming again on his phone that they would be passing through Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Ling Yunxiao gave Garuda King directions.
Half an hour later, Garuda King hovered above Guangzhou and Shenzhen, carrying the two of them on his back. Baili Pangpang swallowed hard as he looked at the clouds beside him. Just as he was about to ask Garuda King to fly higher, Ling Yunxiao kicked him down.
"You survived the plane explosion unscathed, so why are you pretending to be weak? Don't waste my time saving people!"
After Baili Pangpang opened Yao Guang in the air, he didn't forget to give Ling Yunxiao the middle finger in the clouds.
"Brother Ling, I never thought you were such a womanizer who would neglect your friends. I misjudged you~~~ Ah..."
"Me? More interested in romance than friendship? That's not the captain over there... Pshaw, pshaw, pshaw..."
Ling Yunxiao was momentarily stunned, then swallowed his words and commanded Garuda King to advance at full speed towards Changping. In the original storyline, Xia Simeng's team shouldn't have encountered trouble at this point. But he dared not gamble, lest his actions, like a butterfly flapping its wings, bring annihilation to other teams.
Therefore, he was very eager to get there, mainly because he didn't want his comrades to die because of him.
Another half hour passed, and Garuda King's speed gradually slowed down.
"Master, we've arrived. Changping City is just below. Where do you want to land?"
