Chapter 408 continues in-depth

The incident with Zhang Qiling was a minor episode and did not change Cheng Feng's pleasant mood.

Back at the camp, Cheng Feng found Hei Xiazi and told him about the departure of the four women and Zhang Qiling.

The blind man also agreed with Cheng Feng's decision; prioritizing stability was the right thing to do.

If Zhang Qiling is truly unlucky enough to be controlled by Tian Shou, he won't be able to help them and will only cause them trouble.

"Boss, our Black Whirlwind duo is making a comeback. Don't worry, with me here, there won't be any surprises."

Hei Xiazi playfully put his hand on Cheng Feng's shoulder, looking like they were good buddies.

"You better watch yourself, don't lose the talisman I gave you, or I'll beat you up if you get it by fate."

Although Hei Xiazi rarely messes up when it comes to important matters, Cheng Feng still gave him a reminder.

The situation down there is complicated. If this scoundrel runs away on his own after being given the opportunity, it will be difficult for Cheng Feng to find him.

Hei Xiazi smiled and made an OK sign.

After breakfast, Wu Sansheng, Xie Lianhuan, and A Ning went to Cheng Feng's camp together.

After settling down in the tent, a hint of doubt flashed in Wu Sansheng's eyes. Chen Wenjin and the others were always inseparable from Cheng Feng.

Now we need to discuss the next steps, but no one is around.

Seeing that Wu Sansheng remained silent, Xie Lianhuan had no choice but to speak:

"Boss Cheng, our supplies should be replenished today, so I came to ask about your plans."

In terms of the level of importance attached to this operation, Xie Lianhuan and Wu Sansheng were second to none.

Both families firmly believed in the great divination left by Qi Tiezui, so they both approached the matter with the mindset of "do or die trying."

"My plan was the day after tomorrow, but judging from your expressions, you all seem a bit impatient, so let's do it tomorrow then."

When Cheng Feng arrived here, he wasn't in a hurry, after all, he could run away but he couldn't hide.

After obtaining the exact time of the operation, Wu Sansheng and his companion discussed some details with Cheng Feng before leaving satisfied.

After they stepped out of the tent, Cheng Feng looked at A Ning, who had remained silent throughout.

"They've all left. Is there anything else you need?"

Ah Ning put down her teacup and answered irrelevantly:

"Where are your three beloved concubines? They should be present on this occasion as well."

Cheng Feng frowned slightly, stared at A Ning, and said in a low voice:

"Have I been giving you a nicer look lately?"

Cheng Feng felt that his relationship with A Ning wasn't yet at the point where he could joke around so freely.

Especially these disrespectful jokes about Chen Wenjin and the others.

Ah Ning realized she had said the wrong thing, and filled with remorse, she quickly said:

"I misspoke, I apologize, I'm sorry!"

"This is the first time, and I hope it's the last. Please."

Despite her deep regret, Ah Ning had no choice but to get up and leave Cheng Feng's tent. She realized that she had been somewhat arrogant.

Now it seems that although Cheng Feng didn't stop her from following the group these past few days,

But she never truly entered Cheng Feng's heart.

Little did she know that if she weren't called Aning, she would never have been treated differently by Cheng Feng based solely on her figure and appearance.

You know, what kind of beauties aren't there in the current Xieling faction?

If Cheng Feng wanted to, he could have a different girl every day for a year from the hundreds of girls he brought back from the Wang family.

next day

Before the morning star had even set off, Wu Sansheng and his group began making intensive preparations for their departure.

As dawn broke, those who were to continue their mission gathered at the sky burial site.

There were no changes on Wu Sansheng's side; it was still five people, with him and Xie Lianhuan leading the team, and Wu Xie, Xie Yuchen, and Pan Zi following behind.

Aning's side was reinforced with five fully armed foreigners, making a total of six people including herself.

They also noticed that Cheng Feng seemed to only intend to bring Hei Xiazi, but that was Cheng Feng's own business, and they didn't feel comfortable asking him about it.

"Everything is ready, let's go."

After explaining some things to Zhang Qiling, Cheng Feng came to the front of the group and spoke to everyone.

With the help of the Unloading Ridge disciples, the ropes were secured, and the group stepped back into the deep black dragon vein.

Cheng Feng chose the route along the crack in the mural that Wu Sansheng had previously discovered.

Upon reaching the target area, Cheng Feng stood in the crevice and untied the rope. Without the Venus Umbrella to bother him, the danger here became very low.

Of course, this is under the condition of carrying the meteorite; otherwise, one might not even know how they died.

Before long, Wu Sansheng and the others arrived at the crevice one after another, untied the ropes, and gathered around Cheng Feng.

Cheng Feng's gaze swept across the faces of these people, wondering to himself how many would be left after this journey.

"Keep a close eye on your bronze gear, or don't blame me if you lose your lives."

After saying that, Cheng Feng ignored their reactions and led the way into the depths of the crevice.

Black Bear followed closely behind, staying beside Cheng Feng.

He knew exactly what he was going to face this time, so even though his skills far surpassed those of ordinary people, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

As they ventured further into the crack, the surrounding light disappeared.

The light from the flashlight replaced natural light, illuminating the dim cracks.

Soon, the group arrived at the place where Wu Sansheng had discovered the mural, and Cheng Feng walked straight past it without stopping.

The club on top is undoubtedly the Lu in the eyes of the ancients. Traces of this thing have never been lost from ancient times to the present. Cheng Feng even saw traces of this thing at the Cloud Palace on the top of Changbai Mountain.

After passing through this relatively spacious passage, the road ahead begins to narrow.

In some places, you even had to turn sideways to get through, so the queue started to stretch out.

Cheng Feng and the others passed through the narrow section one by one, and then the space ahead suddenly opened up.

A vast space hidden at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains is filled with darkness.

Aning stood silently beside Cheng Feng, and seeing that there was plenty of space ahead, she raised her hand and placed it on the signal flare on the side of her backpack.

"Pay attention to the angle of the signal flare. These are all wooden buildings, which are easily ignited by the flare."

Cheng Feng noticed A Ning's actions and immediately reminded her.

Ah Ning quickly responded, and then carefully held the signal flare above her head, close to where they were standing.

After the safety was pulled, the signal flare rose into the sky with a streak of light, and when it reached its highest point, it flashed with intense light.

Only then did Wu Sansheng and his group come into view of the situation in this space.

Just as Cheng Feng said, what they saw in front of them was a group of ancient wooden buildings that looked very old.

In front of the buildings, there is a dense forest.

It's quite surprising to see living trees in this dark and gloomy place.

They walked in silence, following Cheng Feng toward the underground building.

When Cheng Feng reached the grove of trees that stretched out in front of the building, he stopped.

“Look at the fruit on the tree, doesn’t it look like the stone mark on the banquet table in the Corpse Kingdom?”
