Chapter 332 Tianlin Tower



Chapter 332 Tianlin Tower

"Legend has it that Thunder City can heal all the regrets in life."

Three off-road vehicles were driving on the road to Thunder City when Black Bear's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

"Blind man, is there anything you wish to make up for?"

"I have so many regrets, I'm afraid even Thunder City can't make up for them!"

It has been half a month since Cheng Feng returned to Golmud from Beijing. Huo Xiuxiu stayed in Golmud for a week.

Then, urged by Huo Xiangu, he left Golmud.

Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling returned three days after Huo Xiuxiu left. Through their combined efforts in investigating...

Finally, they cornered Wu Sansheng, this slippery eel, in the Wu family's underground palace.

Black Bear was unlucky; he traveled all the way to Guangxi, only to find that he had caught Xie Lianhuan in the middle of a tomb raiding.

Later, they contacted Zhang Qiling, who was still in Changsha, through the intelligence department of the Unloading Ridge faction, and finally found Wu Sansheng, who was hiding at home in seclusion.

On this trip to Leicheng, Cheng Feng brought all the women in his family with him.

The Thunder-Listening Artifact of Thunder City is also made of meteorite jade, and one can gain some benefits from the sound of thunder through it.

Although the four women had all taken the Longevity Pill, their physical strength was still the same as that of ordinary people.

This time, Cheng Feng is seeing if he can enhance their physical abilities by listening to thunder.

Ten days later, the three cars stopped in front of an inn built against the mountain.

The inn is called Tianlin Tower. I learned from Wu Sansheng that the entrance to Lei City is inside Tianlin Tower.

The Tianlin Tower occupies a vast area and is shaped like a bird's nest, with three floors on the outer ring.

Each floor is lined with guest rooms.

At the center of the circular area was a courtyard, where some tables and chairs were placed, and Cheng Feng and the others were sitting there.

Chen Wenjin looked around and soon fixed his gaze on a room on the second floor.

According to Wu Sansheng, the entrance to Leicheng is in room 208 on the second floor.

"Old Cheng, your goal this time isn't just to eliminate the evil spirits, is it?"

At this moment, Yang Xueli spoke up and asked Cheng Feng.

Besides Cheng Feng and Zhang Qiling, the only people present were Chen Wenjin and her two daughters, as well as her younger sister A Xiang. At this moment, they all looked at Cheng Feng.

"I did have other purposes for coming to Thunder City this time, but it's a good thing for you."

Cheng Feng's answer clearly did not satisfy the group.

Huo Ling stood up and came up behind Cheng Feng, wrapped her arms around his neck, and said angrily:

"After all these years, can't you get rid of this habit of keeping me in suspense?!"

"What's the rush? You'll see when we get to Thunder City."

Cheng Feng grabbed Huo Ling's small hands, placed them on his shoulders, and said.

Huo Ling pinched him hard a few times before obediently massaging Cheng Feng.

A short while later, Hei Xiazi, who had gone to check in, returned with an air of indifference.

He shook the keys in his hand and said:

"As the boss instructed, we've booked the entire second floor. We can stay wherever we want tonight."

"It's fortunate that this inn is located in a remote area, so there aren't many people coming here usually; otherwise, hiring people from outside would be a real hassle."

As he spoke, Cheng Feng picked up his backpack and led everyone up the stairs to the second floor of the inn.

Upon arriving at room 208, Hei Xiazi picked up the keychain, examined it for a few moments, and found the correct key.

After leaving their luggage in the hallway, the group entered room 208 together.

The room was spacious, with two adjacent beds, each with a bedside table and a lamp on it.

The surrounding walls were covered with wooden planks and decorated with landscape paintings.

"Everyone, let's find a room to rest first. Wu Sansheng wasn't lying; this is indeed the entrance to Thunder City."

Cheng Feng glanced at the wall next to the bedside table and then addressed the group.

"Blind man, open 209 and 207. We'll carry our luggage over there ourselves in a bit."

Hei Xiazi agreed and then pulled Zhang Qiling away from 208.

After resting at the inn for a day, everyone sat in the inn's courtyard drinking tea after dinner.

As the sun set, a lingering glow remained in the sky, and all the incandescent lights that had been hanging from the eaves of the inn were turned on.

Just then, Cheng Feng looked towards the entrance of the inn.

"What's wrong with the head of the household?"

Huo Ling, who was pestering Cheng Feng to explain what benefits Lei City would bring them, noticed Cheng Feng's gaze and asked him.

"Five vehicles are approaching the inn; we don't know if they're tourists or troublemakers."

Sure enough, just as Cheng Feng finished speaking, the sound of car horns could be heard in the distance.

Cheng Feng and the others also stopped their discussion about the trip and waited for these people to arrive while drinking tea.

Not long after, five cars parked in the open space outside the inn.

The group of people took off their backpacks in an orderly manner and gathered behind a middle-aged man wearing a suit and sporting a mustache.

"That map came too easily; I suspect it's a trap set to warn my men to be careful."

Don't sleep too soundly at night.

The man with the mustache gave instructions and then led the dozen or so people behind him into the inn.

Because Cheng Feng and the others were sitting in the courtyard, they saw Cheng Feng and the others as soon as they entered.

The man with the mustache who was leading the group smiled when he saw Cheng Feng and the four women.

But when his gaze fell upon Hei Xiazi, who was still wearing sunglasses late at night, and Zhang Qiling, who was sitting to the side in a daze,

The smile on his face vanished instantly, leaving only a look of utter existential doubt.

"Hei Xiazi and Zhang Qiling, what are they doing here? Are they also here for Lei City?"

With a growing sense of unease, the man with the mustache withdrew his gaze and quickly led the people behind him toward the stairs.

After the group went upstairs, Black Bear tilted his head slightly and whispered:

"This guy is no pushover; the men he brought with them reek of gunpowder."

"That bastard Wu Sansheng has a good plan."

Cheng Feng cursed under his breath, his face full of displeasure.

The quick-witted Hei Xiazi, Chen Wenjin, and the others immediately realized what was happening.

Given their strength, the possibility of their secrets being discovered is extremely small, and there has been no sign of them being followed along the way.

If this group of people and their destination are aligned, then the problem lies only with the source of the information.

"These people were deliberately brought here by Wu Sansheng, but what was his purpose in doing so?"

We can't expect these rotten fish and shrimp to cause us trouble, can we?

Chen Wenjin asked, his face full of doubt.

Cheng Feng sneered:

"That bastard is using someone else to do his dirty work. The guy in the suit is Wu Sansheng's enemy."

Wen Jin, you should remember this person. Think carefully.

After hearing this, Chen Wenjin fell into reminiscence. Since Cheng Feng said that, they must have had some interaction before.

However, so much time has passed that she can't quite remember.

Soon, Chen Wenjin looked enlightened, and Cheng Feng said upon seeing this:

"I remembered?"

Chen Wenjin nodded: "Twenty years ago, I went to the Tomb of the King of the South China Sea with Wu Sansheng."

There was this person in the team at the time; if I remember correctly, his surname was Tian.
