Chapter 1805: Chapter 1802: Captured
Ling Fengâs face was grim because the voice in the voice transmission jade token told him that Cheng Minxue had been drugged and taken away by Zuo Yiqi and the others, placed in one of the rooms.
Although he wasnât sure if this information was true, Ling Feng shivered at the thought of how Zuo Yiqi and the four others had wagered Cheng Minxue before!
Those were lawless heirs; if they really did something, it wouldnât be impossible. But now Ling Feng had no evidence. If he told Elder Cheng, what if it wasnât true?
So Ling Feng decided to follow the jade tokenâs instructions and find out first. If he did discover Cheng Minxue, he would rescue her right away.

However, Ling Feng was aware that someone made a point of notifying him while he was still in the Cheng family, indicating that the mastermind behind the scenes had already learned his identity. And the people who knew his identity were either Dao Chengzi or Qiancheng from the Storm Sect.
Ling Feng didnât let his guard down at this moment; he understood well that this was also the enemyâs trap. It was very likely that nothing had happened to Cheng Minxue at all, and everything was just a trap!
But Ling Feng couldnât just ignore it. After all, the Cheng family had shown him great goodwill, and even the Head of Cheng Family had proactively hidden his whereabouts. If Ling Feng turned his back for his own safety, it wouldnât be his style.
As Ling Feng appeared inside the airship, a man hidden in the shadows smirked coldly: "You finally came out!"
Throughout the journey, Ling Feng was very cautious, but he hadnât discovered any suspicious traces. Finally, Ling Feng approached the room mentioned in the jade token.
But the door to the room was locked. Ling Feng took a deep breath, the Mo Yu Sword flashed in his hand, and the door fell with a loud crash.
Entering inside, Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief; Cheng Minxue was lying on the bed with her clothes intact, albeit her breath was somewhat weak, but overall she was unharmed.
"Really, never a moment of peace!" Ling Feng exhaled, thinking with some helplessness.
He stepped forward, about to wake Cheng Minxue, when suddenly dozens of beams of light rose inside the room, enclosing Ling Feng completely.
"How dare you violently break the entrance, storm into Cheng Minxueâs room, trying to assault her!" an angry voice shouted: "Youâre simply crazed, I must capture you today!"
Ling Feng looked up to see Dao Chengzi, the Guild President, leading a large group of people who appeared in front of Ling Feng. Ling Feng suddenly felt heavy-hearted; this was all orchestrated by him. He didnât seek to ambush Ling Feng but rather capture him in front of everyone!
Ling Feng scanned the area but didnât find the Head of Cheng Familyâs figure, inwardly giving a bitter smile. If Dao Chengzi had planned all this, he would naturally have sent away the Head of Cheng Family.
Dao Chengzi stepped forward, feigning concern as he checked and said: "Fortunately, we arrived in time, and niece Minxue didnât suffer any harm. This truly is a blessing amidst misfortune."
Ling Feng stared daggers at Dao Chengzi: "Was this all your plan?"
Dao Chengzi smiled slightly: "I donât know what youâre talking about, but your attempt to molest niece Minxue is something we saw with our own eyes! Moreover... who are you? I donât recall your name on the airshipâs roster; are you a stowaway?"
The term âstowawayâ caused an uproar among the crowd; they hadnât expected that even the airship of Canglan Commerce would host stowaways?
"Kill him, kill him! This guy turned out to be a stowaway and did such disgraceful things; heâs simply human scum. President Dao Chengzi, kill him!"
"Exactly, with this person alive, we canât sleep or eat in peace! Canât imagine thereâs such a person on the airship!"
"We must punish the culprit severely, return us a peaceful environment and justice!"
...
Dao Chengziâs aged face showed a satisfied smile. This young guy was still too naive; with a little setup, he obediently walked right into it, just too cooperative.
Ling Feng took a few deep breaths, gradually calming down. He looked at Dao Chengzi and said: "President Dao Chengzi, I donât know why youâre so set on capturing me, but I can tell you, you wonât succeed!"
"Young man, confidence is admirable, but overconfidence becomes arrogance!" Dao Chengzi said blandly: "Youâre already trapped now. Itâs best not to struggle too much to lessen the torture!"
Ling Feng tested it just now; these beams of light were solid and blocked internal space from each other. If Ling Feng wanted to leave, he would have to break them through violent means. Otherwise, as Dao Chengzi mentioned, heâd indeed be captured.
Just as Ling Feng prepared to summon the Mo Yu Sword to shatter the beams of light, a weak voice emerged: "Huh, where am I? My head... hurts!"
Dao Chengziâs eyes flickered with surprise; he hadnât expected Cheng Minxue to wake up so quickly. The person who spiked her drink was instructed by Dao Chengzi himself, but Cheng Minxue only drank a bit. Though she fainted, the effect wasnât strong, so she recovered quite fast!
"Xiaoxue, youâre awake?" Ling Feng thought about it and temporarily abandoned summoning the Mo Yu Sword.
Cheng Minxue looked at Ling Feng trapped in the beams of light with surprise, somewhat perplexed, and asked: "Big Brother Feng, why are you here? President Dao Chengzi, what is going on here?"
Dao Chengziâs face showed a shadow, but it disappeared quickly. He amiably said to Cheng Minxue: "This stowaway violated the airshipâs rules. Iâm about to catch him, so leave everything to me. You should rest assured and relax!"
Speaking, Dao Chengzi patted Cheng Minxueâs shoulder, and Cheng Minxueâs eyelids felt heavy again. But this time, she fought the feeling off and got up from the bed: "Though I donât quite understand what happened, please, President Dao Chengzi, let Big Brother Feng go!"
"Miss Minxue, donât be deceived by this guy. He just tried to shame you!" someone from around shouted: "You canât let him go!"
At this moment, Cheng Minxue shivered, suddenly recalling that she seemed to have been drugged. Before her sleep, she had a fleeting thought...
"President Dao Chengzi, whatâs going on?" Cheng Minxue took a deep breath, retrieved a bottle of elixir from her bosom, took a pill, and completely rid herself of the effects of the drug, then asked clearly.
Dao Chengzi inwardly cursed, regretting not forcing her to drink another cup of wine earlier, knowing she would wake so soon.
"Hereâs what happened!" Before Dao Chengzi could speak, someone around had already told Cheng Minxue the sequence of events.
