Chapter 836: Chapter 836: Departure
If not for the inappropriate environment right now, the two of them might have already given in to their romantic passion, crossing the line and turning uncooked rice into cooked rice!
Thanks to the modifications brought by the Power of the Abyss, Ling Fengās physical condition had improved significantly. In just an hour, Ling Feng had already recovered from his previous state of weakness.
"Wake everyone up!" Ling Feng said to Bai Feifei.
Immediately, following Bai Feifeiās call, Fat Bear and the others were all awakened one by one.
"Ling Feng, what about this guy?" Bai Feifei pointed at the Indian Snake King and asked.
Looking at the unconscious Indian Snake King, Ling Fengās lips curled into a faint sneer. "Since he isnāt waking up, just kill him now!"
The Indian Snake King opened his eyes helplessly. His attempt to feign unconsciousness had been detected by Ling Feng.
He had originally planned to ambush Bai Feifei when she got close, using her as leverage to force Ling Feng to remove the seal on him. However, it seemed all his efforts were in vain.
Ling Feng clearly understood the Snake Kingās intentions but chose not to expose him. Instead, he gave him a warning look before shifting his gaze to the altar.
This plaza had no other exits, and it seemed like there was only one way to leave.
Ling Feng slowly walked up to the altar, placed his hand on the stone slab, and soon black lines appeared on his face. However, with his back turned to the others, they did not witness any of this!
The Power of the Abyss was gradually channeled into the stone slab, causing strange patterns to emerge on its surface. As the power flowed in, the patterns began to emit a faint white light.
Click, click, clickāthe stone slab started to rotate slowly, and a beam of white light descended from above, landing on the stone slab.
When Ling Feng turned around again, he was back to normal. "Everyone, come in. I think this is the way out."
Because of Ling Fengās series of miraculous actions, everyone followed his orders without question. Even if Ling Feng had claimed that this was a portal to the Otherworld, they would probably have believed him!
"Letās go!" Fat Bear and the others filed in one after another, their figures disappearing into the white light.
"Asura, donāt forget your promise!" The Snake King spoke seriously to Ling Feng as he stepped into the light.
Ling Feng nodded. "Donāt worry. Once weāre out, as long as you fully release Bai Feifei from her bindings, I will naturally let you live."
"Youād better keep your word!" The Snake King took a deep breath and then stepped into the white light.
Now, only Ling Feng and Bai Feifei remained in place.
"Ling Feng, letās go!" Bai Feifei said with a smile.
Ling Feng grabbed Bai Feifeiās hand, took a deep breath, and said, "Feifei, thereās something I want to tell you!"
Bai Feifei tilted her head, looking at Ling Feng with a hint of confusion.
"IfāIām just saying ifāif someday I end up like Uncle Liu, completely powerless, would you still like me? If someday I were paralyzed and couldnāt even turn over on my own, would you still like me? If one day I..."
Before Ling Feng could finish, Bai Feifei reached out and pressed her hand against his lips.
She looked at Ling Feng seriously. "Ling Feng, I donāt know why youāre saying these things, why you have these concerns. But what I want to tell you is this..."
"Even if youāre paralyzed in bed, even if you donāt recognize me one day, even if you walk into darkness and Hell, I, Bai Feifei, will always stay by your side! I like you. I love you. Not because of your strength, but because I love you as a personāyour soul, your everything!" Bai Feifei said earnestly. "Even if one day you grow tired of me, I will protect you from a place you canāt see and quietly watch over you. Because for me, Bai Feifei, in this lifetime, my heart will never belong to anyone else."
Looking into Bai Feifeiās determined eyes, Ling Feng pulled her into his arms. "Feifei, thank you. Thank you!"
"Itās me who should thank you!" Bai Feifei murmured softly as she leaned against Ling Fengās chest. "At one time, my only goal in life was to find my fatherās killer and avenge him. But because of you, my life has once again been filled with desire and passion for living."
...
Just as the few people outside were growing impatient, a flash of white light appeared, and Ling Feng and Bai Feifei emerged before them.
Bai Feifeiās cheeks were now flushed, her eyes filled with a tender warmth. If not for the fact that she was still a virgin, everyone might have assumed Ling Feng and Bai Feifei had "done the deed" right there on the plaza!
"Where is this..." Ling Feng looked with some surprise at the dense forest surrounding them. He seemed a little taken aback, as this was clearly not Egypt.
"Given the temperature and humidity, along with the surrounding vegetation, this must be a temperate maritime climate. Weāre likely somewhere in France!" Bai Feifei said.
Ling Feng looked at her in awe. "You even know where we are right now? Youāre amazing!"
Bai Feifei stuck out her tongue and said, "Look over thereāthereās a sign in French!"
Everyone looked up, and sure enough, there was a sign indicating they were in a small border town in Lille, France. Not far away was a small winery.
"Snake King, letās part ways here!" Ling Feng said, giving the Indian Snake King two slaps on the chest. Instantly, the Snake King felt his strength returning.
He stepped back two steps, casting a vigilant gaze at Ling Feng.
But Ling Feng made no further moves, only looking at him quietly.
The Indian Snake King knew full well that he was no match for Ling Feng, which was why Ling Feng could confidently unseal him without fear.
"Blood-Handed Asura, truly deserving of his reputation! It seems I underestimated him before!" the Snake King thought to himself.
"Fine. Since Asura kept his word, I will not break mine!" The Snake King murmured under his breath. After chanting some serpent incantations, he glanced at Ling Feng. "I have now released my control over the Seven-step Silver Light Snake. Farewell!"
With that, the Snake Kingās figure flickered and disappeared before everyoneās eyes.
"Ling Feng, whatās going on? What does this have to do with the Seven-step Silver Light Snake?" Bai Feifei asked with some confusion.
Ling Feng smiled. "Itās over now. Everything is fine. Right, you should lead your team to the base. The Freedom Organization members in Egypt are likely wiped out. If you show up rashly, itāll definitely attract their attention!"
Bai Feifei nodded. "Alright, Iāll contact Chen Wei now. But... arenāt you coming back with us?"
Ling Feng shook his head. "I need to destroy the Freedom Organizationās plans, and since we happen to be in France, thereās something I have to do here..."
