Chapter 1656 -1601: Fairy Descends to the Mortal World (Part 3)
Song Xiaodong nodded, leaned back, and lay on the ground, saying: âRight now, I really donât want to do anything, just want to have a good sleep.â
Chu Xianling said: âDonât sleep here, letâs hurry down the mountain and rest well at the hotel.â
Song Xiaodong was just saying it, sleeping here would turn him into an ice pop.
As they were about to go down the mountain, Song Xiaodong suddenly paused, his expression turning somewhat grim, and said: âWhere is Elder Su?â
Chu Xianling froze for a moment, then gave a bitter smile, saying: âI donât know either, but you donât need to worry, since the two of us were able to escape, Elder Su, with his skills much higher than ours, will surely escape too.â
Song Xiaodong hesitated for a bit, then said: âThatâs true, letâs wait for him at the hotel; here the phone signal isnât good anyway, even if we want to reach him, we canât.â
The two flew down the mountain and headed straight to the hotel arranged upon arrival. As soon as Song Xiaodong entered the room, he started calling Elder Su.
But Elder Suâs phone was always out of service, which made him very worried, really unsure whether Su Lie could escape that enormous avalanche.
Unable to reach him, Song Xiaodong had no solution; even if he thought about rescue, he knew it was impossible to start. This avalanche covered such a large area, just observing upon exit, the snow spread over tens of square kilometers, trying to dig someone out would be impossible, itâs all up to Su Lie for self-rescue now.
He lay on the bed and rested for over two hours before his phone rang and woke him.
Seeing the number, Song Xiaodong immediately sat up quickly, exclaiming: âElder Su!â
âYoung Master!â Su Lieâs voice was full of joy, âWhere are you?â
Song Xiaodong replied: âIâve returned to the hotel. I have been calling you, unable to reach you.â
âGreat! Iâm coming back immediately; finally managed to come out, intending to find rescue, only to find youâve escaped already.â
Song Xiaodong could clearly feel Su Lieâs happiness was genuinely heartfelt.
This made Song Xiaodong suddenly feel guilty, thinking about relying on Su Lie to escape on his own, while Su Lie still wanted to rescue him. Though it stemmed from his confidence in Su Lie, it also showed his care couldnât match theirs.
Chapter 1603
Su Lie rushed back, seeing Song Xiaodong, excitedly lunged and hugged him, âYoung Master! You scared me to death!â
Song Xiaodong quickly said: âElder Su, donât be so excited, calm down!â
Su Lie then released Song Xiaodong, saying: âYoung Master, I thought you were buried by the avalanche, this time is certainlyâŠâ
Song Xiaodong chuckled, saying: âJust an avalanche, itâs not enough to take my life.â
Song Xiaodong continued: âElder Su, how did you escape?â
Su Lie said: âAfter being buried under the snow, I compacted the snow beneath my feet, then piled up snow little by little, but the snow was too thick, I estimate I had stacked over thirty to forty meters, finally breaking through the snow surface. Young Master, how did you escape?â
Song Xiaodongâs face darkened, saying: âI didnât even think of such a simple method. Xianling and I dug horizontally, eventually reaching a cliff base, and climbed up along it.â
Compared to Su Lieâs method, Song Xiaodongâs was evidently more cumbersome; his burial spot probably wasnât as deep, had he used Su Lieâs method, he mightâve gotten out sooner.
Su Lie chuckled, saying: âRegardless of the method, the fact is we came out safe, thatâs all that matters.â
Song Xiaodong gave an awkward smile, saying: âElder Su, youâve been through a hard night, quickly rest a while.â
Su Lie nodded, saying: âWith Young Master safe, Iâm relieved, and the mission was beautifully completed; two wielding Second Stage True Qi, directly took down a Three Meridians True Qi expert, thatâs certainly something to boast about.â
Song Xiaodong smiled, saying: âIf it werenât for the avalanche, I guess we would really need to celebrate, but letâs rest well now.â
Though they said theyâd rest, Song Xiaodong and others didnât rest long; by noon, the three of them were already on a return flight.
After all, being abroad, having defeated the Dark Night Sectâs Elder and a protector, it was easy for sect members to come after them, leaving promptly was safer.
As the plane landed in Beijing, Song Xiaodong, Chu Xianling, and Su Lie all exited together.
Lin Feng had already arranged a car to pick them up; Chu Xianling also departed with Song Xiaodong and the rest, following this action, wanting to discuss many things with Song Xiaodong, things that were too tiring to address the previous night.
This time, Song Xiaodong didnât stay at the He family, instead opting for a hotel.
Su Lie quickly said a few words and went off to handle other matters; within Chinaâs borders, they didnât worry about Song Xiaodongâs safety, as the Dark Night Sect dared not venture into China recklessly.
âXiaodong, this collaboration has inspired an idea.â Chu Xianling, sitting on the sofa with Song Xiaodong, gazed at him with bright eyes.
