Chapter 2559 - 2558: Past Events
The other party was left red-faced and speechless, unable to refute, so they could only nod awkwardly.
Afterward, he continued, "Since that’s the case, please, Mr. Ling Feng, hurry up and leave with your spaceship. The Capital City has already descended into chaos, with incidents of looting, smashing, and arson happening!"
Ling Feng chuckled and thought to himself, serving them right!
However, he said aloud, "Alright."
Finishing his words, he turned and looked at Xiangxue beside him: "Do you still want to chat with me?"
"Of course!"
Xiangxue nodded and then pointed to the Ling Yun ship: "Are you going to that? Can I follow you?"
"Sure, but what about your mount?" Ling Feng asked.
"I can put it away."
Xiangxue said, raising her hand, and the massive creature was absorbed by her.
Ling Feng, unfazed by the strange sight, knew she had something similar to his Pet Space, so he smiled and said nothing, turning to fly towards the cabin door.
The deployed Magic Crystal Warriors had all returned, and for the loss they caused to the Kyoto military camp, they could only admit their bad luck.
After everything was retrieved, the Ling Yun ship slowly turned and flew away from the city of Kyoto.
Seeing the spaceship leave, the chaos in the city gradually calmed down, and those representatives of the Dongying Imperial Family could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Inside the spaceship at this moment, Li Chunxi watched Xiangxue with a wary look but said nothing.
Ling Feng knew her feelings well; he himself was curious about Xiangxue, unsure of the woman’s origins.
But now wasn’t the time to ask, as Xiangxue surveyed everything inside the spaceship with curiosity, her eyes not enough to take in everything.
After watching for quite a while, she turned her gaze to Ling Feng: "This thing is so huge, to make it fly is really amazing!"
"Not too bad."
Ling Feng smiled and then asked, "You said you came from Extreme North Land, where is that?"
"It’s the Extreme North Land, all covered with ice and snow." Xiangxue said.
Ling Feng immediately understood, realizing she meant the Arctic Glacier.
Nodding, he quickly asked, "Do you live there alone?"
"Of course not!"
Xiangxue shook her head: "Our entire tribe lives there, it’s been hundreds of years!"
"Oh? Your tribe? Where did you move from, to live there?" Ling Feng continued to ask.
"It’s a long story, we’re not Earthlings; we came here hundreds of years ago, falling from space!" Xiangxue said.
"Huh?"
Ling Feng’s eyes widened: "Are you from the Devil Clan?"
"No, you’re mistaken, we are people, but not from the Devil Clan; back then, our ancestors came here due to a war with the Devil Clan, resulting in some from both sides breaking through time and space, arriving in this space!"
Xiangxue explained, telling Ling Feng that after a meteor fell, their race and the Devil Clan suffered severe losses, both sides lost the ability to continue fighting and decided to separate.
The Devil Clan chose to go south, while Xiangxue’s ancestors chose to go north, each avoiding contact with Earth’s civilizations, heading to places far from human society.
After hearing this, Ling Feng pondered, was it that they didn’t want contact with humans, or were they too weak at the time, fearing they might fail to invade and instead be wiped out?
But this was hundreds of years ago; proving it now had no meaning, this thought flashed by, and he didn’t dwell on it.
Then Ling Feng asked, "Why did you appear in the lands of Dongying?"
"I’m here to collect Ice Crystals."
Xiangxue looked at him: "This is useful for us and considered a unique lifestyle of our tribe."
"Ice Crystals?"
Ling Feng was a bit puzzled.
"You don’t need to understand; it’s something contained within the ice layers that our race needs." Xiangxue said.
"Alright then."
Ling Feng nodded: "Now it’s your turn to ask me."
"Since you have the ability to traverse time and space, can you help us find the homeland of our ancestors?" Xiangxue asked immediately.
"Uh, this might be possible."
Ling Feng pondered briefly, looking at her and asking: "Are you wanting to return to where you lived before?"
"Yes!"
Xiangxue nodded: "The Ice Crystals of this planet have been nearly exhausted by us, and if there are no more, our entire tribe faces the risk of extinction unless we return to our home planet; otherwise, this day will eventually come."
Ling Feng said, "I see, but in this vast universe, finding your planet won’t be easy."
"I know, our ancestors left a message indicating where our mother planet is, which might help you." Xiangxue said and added: "I know the rules of humans on Earth, you can’t help us for free; there must be benefits given!"
Ling Feng smiled: "You’re too kind."
"No, it’s necessary!"
Xiangxue said but then shifted the topic: "But I didn’t bring anything valuable with me, I’ll give you something once we arrive there!"
Ling Feng was a bit curious: "What can you give me?"
"The wealth our tribe has accumulated over the years, a large amount of gold." Xiangxue said.
Ling Feng replied with an "oh", feeling somewhat disappointed.
Exotic treasures still held some appeal for him, but gold seemed rather ordinary.
Yet, considering his development efforts in the Li Dynasty required astronomical funds, some returns were still acceptable.
He nodded and told Xiangxue: "Alright then, we’ll head back to Huaxia first, and afterwards, I’ll go with you to the Arctic."
"Not the Arctic, it’s Extreme North Land." Xiangxue corrected him.
Ling Feng chuckled, didn’t say anything, and ordered the Ling Yun ship to return immediately.
The giant spaceship activated its warp engine and vanished into the sky instantly.
The few Dongying martial artists secretly trailing them were dumbfounded upon witnessing this scene, frozen in place.
They were there to monitor the spaceship, to see if it truly departed, only for it to vanish into thin air, leaving them wondering where it went?
Ling Feng didn’t care about the Dongying people’s surveillance, the spaceship returned to Huaxia territory instantly, soon flying above the Capital City.
At that moment, Li Chunxi leaned next to Ling Feng’s ear and whispered: "I’ll first go back to report to my father about our affair, also prepare for the wedding, you going with this Xiangxue won’t cause any problems, right?"
Ling Feng paused, understood her meaning from her look, and shook his head with a smile: "Of course not, don’t worry!"
"I hope you can reassure me!"
Li Chunxi glared at him.
