When in the Netherworld, Meng Po saw through Lin Tian's zombie identity at first glance. Back then, Lin Tian didn't think much of it. Now, thinking back, it's not really a good thing. If the other party truly has any schemes, this could become leverage against him.
"Thanks." Lin Tian said honestly. He had only healed Zhang Lingyu once, while Zhang Lingyu had helped him quite a lot.
Zhang Lingyu looked slightly upward at Lin Tian and said, "I've said everything I should, and I've done what I shouldn't. It's time to say goodbye, you should go."
"What? Out here in the wilderness, how will you get back if I leave?" Lin Tian frowned slightly, surprised at how hastily Zhang Lingyu was departing.
"I always come and go like this, besides, I won't be returning to Xikou City. It doesn't matter where we part, so why not just say goodbye here." Zhang Lingyu said softly.
Zhang Lingyu appearing as a transfer student at Xikou City High School was just a cover, and now that the guise was no longer necessary, the departure was naturally straightforward.
A trace of melancholy passed through Lin Tian's heart. Sadness often accompanies farewells, but he still pretended to smile nonchalantly, then reached out and gently embraced Zhang Lingyu.
Zhang Lingyu's body stiffened for a moment, then quickly relaxed, letting Lin Tian hug her. Her previously complex heart was at this moment so calm, with only a simple wish: hoping this moment could pause. But she knew it could never be.
"You go first, I'll watch you leave." Zhang Lingyu said gently.
Lin Tian let go, stepped back a bit, gave Zhang Lingyu a deep look, turned decisively, and walked away in big strides, not speaking another word. Yet with each step he took farther away, it felt as if some corner of his heart was being emptied.
Zhang Lingyu stood still, watching Lin Tian's gradually disappearing figure, until even his silhouette vanished amongst the weeds and shrubs, she still hadn't moved.
In the distance, a faint engine sound could be heard, but this sound too quickly disappeared into the silent wilderness. A tear slid down from Zhang Lingyu's eye, appearing so crystal-clear in the dazzling sunlight.
Zhang Lingyu sighed slightly, turned and started to leave in the opposite direction, but just as she took a step, her face turned pale, and a line of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
She gently wiped away the blood, smiling bitterly, "Forcibly using the White Tiger Seal, still doesn't work?"
She was about to continue forward when a shadow in the distance swept toward her at low altitude at an incredible speed, so fast that even the fastest flying birds were left far behind. Yet strangely, at such a speed, it didn't stir up any wind, as it passed through the grass without making any commotion, silent and unnoticed.
"It's you..."
Zhang Lingyu's eyes widened in surprise, but before she could finish speaking, the shadow had already reached her. In a hurry, she tried to counterattack, but a wave of weakness struck her body, slowing her reactions.
Meanwhile, the shadow suddenly emitted a peculiar sound, and upon hearing this, Zhang Lingyu felt as if her head was heavily struck, then the world started spinning, and she collapsed as her body gave way.
The shadow didn't pause, gliding above her, and after passing over, it quickly vanished into the distance, with Zhang Lingyu disappearing from the spot as well.
The whole process was silent and quick. The shadow appeared and disappeared suddenly, and Zhang Lingyu disappeared along with it.
Meanwhile, Lin Tian had already driven the bulletproof car onto the main road, unaware of what had just transpired at the previous battle site.
The bulletproof car sped along the road, the wind blowing in from the window and brushing against Lin Tian's face. Only in this way could Lin Tian slightly stop thinking about Zhang Lingyu.
For now, he had more important things, or rather a plan. This plan was based on clues provided by Zhang Lingyu, and its purpose was precisely for Xiao Manxuan.
Using the blood of Jiang Chen, Nu Ba, Houqing, Ying Gou, and Cain's five bloodlines, together with the Shennong Ding, to refine the ultimate Yin object, this is the method to cure Xiao Manxuan.
These five Ancestors are legends of legends, and acquiring the blood of their descendants seems almost impossible upon first hearing. However, as Lin Tian thought carefully, it turned out he actually already had quite a few clues in hand.
"There's no need to consider the bloodline of Nu Ba, as I myself am one. As for Jiang Chen's bloodline, nine times out of ten, it is Xu Feibai. Although his exact location is unknown, he is surely within Japan's scope, which counts as having a direction to search."
"The remaining ones are Houqing and Ying Gou, these two zombie Ancestors have no information, it's challenging to find zombies from their lineage." Lin Tian sighed.
Then, he thought of an even more severe issue: if Houqing and Ying Gou hadn't bitten anyone, meaning there were no descendant bloodlines, then what would be the point of searching?
Moreover, the Shennong Ding is rarer than the Ancestors, being utterly unique, and in such a vast Huaxia, there's really no starting point. If it's buried in an ancient tomb, then forget about it, unless, as Zhang Lingyu said, the Shennong Ding emerges by fate, only then might it be found.
As Lin Tian pondered, it gave him a headache. A bit of consolation was that at least the bloodline descendants of Cain were somewhat traceable, although it was uncertain if the name Charlotte was real, despite her repeatedly claiming it was her real name.
However, Bale Bank certainly exists. It's a world-class bank, won't run away, and the black card Charlotte used was issued by Bale Bank, which is at least a big clue.
"Alright, let's start with you, Charlotte." Lin Tian said loudly, deciding to go abroad to search for Charlotte. This also counted as fulfilling the promise he once made to Rossi, to find an opportunity to search for his own identity and family with him.
However, Zhang Lingyu also said that this matter couldn't be disclosed to others, including Zhang Lingyu and Tang Ziqing. Yet, to go abroad, he needed to get a passport and handle these procedures.
Regarding the procedures for going abroad, he was completely clueless, not knowing where to start or which department to go to, given that he used to be just a poor kid, the term "going abroad" was too far removed from him.
Back when he went to Japan, although exit-entry procedures and documents were needed, he didn't have to worry about them at all, responsibility was delegated to others.
But now it was different, he had to do it alone, and couldn't let Miss know. After much thought, he thought of someone.
After returning to the city, Lin Tian didn't head back to the Xiao Family immediately but instead went towards the Qi Family. In no time, he arrived outside the Qi Family Villa District. This time, he entered openly, rather than climbing over the wall.
His sudden visit startled everyone in the Qi Family. They probably saw Lin Tian through the surveillance cameras, for when Lin Tian knocked on the door of the Qi Family, the entire Qi Family came out to greet him.
"Mr. Lin, your sudden visit makes me feel flattered." Qi Dapeng said happily.
"Brother Tian, long time no see." Mr. Qi said respectfully.
