Chapter 1853: Chapter 1850: Success Comes Effortlessly

Half a day later, the airship docked at a resupply planet. Ling Feng and the Cheng family members bid farewell to the people from the commerce and then left the airship. Those in the commerce were well aware of the current situation facing the Cheng family, so aside from Dao Chengzi saying a few insincere platitudes, no one else said anything.

"Ling Feng, let’s go to the branch for a short rest, then hurry back to the Cheng family," Elder Cheng said to Ling Feng, "Do you have anything else you need to do?"

Ling Feng whispered, "Elder Cheng, I have some personal matters to attend to, so I’ll join you at the branch later. You go on ahead!"

Elder Cheng nodded, "Alright, you don’t need my help?"

"No need, it’s just some simple things!" Ling Feng shook his head.

After the Cheng family members left, Ling Feng found a secluded corner, then released Hei Shi from the Heavenly Spirit Stone Cave.

"Big Brother Hei Shi, we’ve already evaded the Storm Sect’s pursuit. It’s fairly safe here now!" Ling Feng said in a deep voice, "Let’s say our goodbyes here!"

Hei Shi looked at Ling Feng, "Brother Ling Feng, I won’t forget your life-saving grace! Once I’ve rescued my wife, we’ll go to thank you personally!"

Ling Feng smiled, "No need for that. I imagine once your wife overcomes the Half-Dragon Bloodline flaw, her bloodline purity will greatly enhance, and she’ll likely need a long Nirvana Phase of closed-door cultivation!"

Hei Shi nodded, then turned his hand, and an avatar embryo appeared in it, "Brother Ling Feng, this is the avatar embryo. I give it to you!"

Ling Feng was shocked, "Big Brother Hei Shi, what do you mean by this? Didn’t we say before..."

"Before, it was a transaction, but now I want to trade this for our friendship!" Hei Shi said sternly, "And I trust you. If I insisted on the previous deal, I wouldn’t be worthy of being your friend!"

Ling Feng laughed. Since Hei Shi put it that way, he was happy to accept.

"Brother Ling Feng, let’s part ways here!" Hei Shi cupped his hands towards Ling Feng and said, "Oh, by the way, I hope you’ll visit me when you can!"

As he spoke, Hei Shi took out a token and handed it to Ling Feng, "Follow the guidance of this token, and you’ll be able to find me!"

Ling Feng’s eyes narrowed because the graphics on this token were very familiar, almost identical to the one Dao Chengzi took a photograph of, except this one had an extra gold edge, making it look more mysterious.

"This..." Ling Feng felt his heart pounding; he couldn’t believe his eyes. He had been thinking about how to get the token from Dao Chengzi’s hands, but now...

"Big Brother Hei Shi, there’s something I want to ask!" Ling Feng stared at Hei Shi, his voice trembling, "Are you from that rumored mysterious faction?"

"Mysterious faction?" Hei Shi was taken aback, then chuckled, "Oh, you must’ve heard at the auction, right? That’s right, I’m one of their people, but we aren’t some mysterious faction. We just don’t want too much involvement with the Ancient Ruins people!"

Ling Feng took a deep breath, then smiled bitterly, "I never expected, Big Brother Hei Shi, that you were hiding so deeply. No wonder you don’t care about the Storm Sect!"

Hei Shi chuckled, "The Storm Sect is powerful, but there are quite a few experts in our tribe too. But I snuck out earlier, so I didn’t bring those guards. Otherwise, those from the Storm Sect couldn’t possibly be my match?"

At this point, Hei Shi still showed a trace of indignation on his face.

From childhood to adulthood, he had never experienced such frustration.

Ling Feng exhaled; he had many questions to ask, but he knew now wasn’t the time to discuss these. However, with this token, it should be much easier to find that mysterious faction. When the time comes, Ling Feng will get to the bottom of whether they have any connection with Huaxia Earth!

"Brother Ling Feng, I’m off now!" Hei Shi patted Ling Feng on the shoulder and said, "Don’t forget to visit me! When the time comes, my wife and I will cook up a feast for you!"

"Definitely, and when the time comes, I won’t be polite!" Ling Feng also replied with a smile.

Hei Shi left, and Ling Feng tightly held the token, feeling a ripple pass through his heart. If he hadn’t saved Hei Shi then, how would he have received such a rich reward?

After putting away the token, Ling Feng contentedly headed toward the Cheng family branch.

"Look, isn’t that the pretty boy of Minxue?" In the distance, Zuo Yuqi and Li Zhiyuan spotted Ling Feng’s figure and said playfully.

"Heh, the Head of the Cheng Family has been captured, and the fall of the Cheng family is already inevitable!" Li Zhiyuan said indifferently, "I’m curious, does Minxue still have that arrogant attitude?"

Minxue was a flower of the Canglan Commerce, with no previous scandals, which made many young talents in the commerce admire her. Naturally, Li Zhiyuan and Zuo Yuqi were also drooling!

But unexpectedly, Ling Feng emerged halfway and became Minxue’s close companion, making them feel deeply frustrated and angry, as if their cherished possession was seized by someone else.

"What? Want to go tease him?" Zuo Yuqi said playfully, "What’s so special about a mere pretty boy? Now that the Cheng family is nearly ruined, we have nothing to fear, right?"

Li Zhiyuan chuckled, "Exactly, I want to see, without the Cheng family, can this stray dog still act tough? Let’s go, have some fun!"

Soon, Ling Feng felt a few unfriendly gazes directed at him.

"It’s them?" Ling Feng frowned slightly. Although he didn’t know what these business heirs wanted, he just wanted to return to the branch and didn’t want to stir up too much trouble, so he prepared to speed up.

"Looks like he wants to flee. Stop him!" Zuo Yuqi waved his hand, commanding the mid-stage Azure Sky Realm expert by his side.

The guard beside him nodded and then flashed to block Ling Feng’s path.

"What do you want!" A hint of killing intent flashed in Ling Feng’s eyes, and he asked calmly.

Zuo Yuqi and Li Zhiyuan approached from behind, Li Zhiyuan speaking playfully, "What do we want? Tsk tsk tsk, a mere pretty boy daring to speak to us in that tone? Who do you think you are?"

Ling Feng’s face changed slightly.

Zuo Yuqi laughed, "Don’t worry, we don’t mean you any harm. We just want to ask how Minxue’s skills in bed are? She’s a flower of our Canglan Commerce, and for you to take her, if we don’t share insights, it’s such a waste!"
