Chapter 1169 How Could He Hit on a Stewardess So Impulsively?!
“You mean, you all are not aware of the news?”
Hearing Lin Qingyi’s question, Fang Qiu immediately frowned and looked at the people around him. He finally realized that everyone’s faces were filled with doubts.
It seemed that no one here was aware of the arrival of the foreign forces who wanted to intervene and get a slice of the pie.
“What should we have known?”
Lin Qingyi asked with a puzzled look.
“Before I came here, I received some authentic information.”
Fang Qiu shook his head slightly and continued, “Someone released the news about the secret land in Zangjiang on the world underground force forum. Now, not only the Wulin forces in Huaxia but even organizations in worldwide countries are all eager to locate the ancient relic of our country.”
“According to the information I got, most foreign forces are still taking a wait-and-see approach, but I’m sure some of them have already started to take action and are now on their way to Huaxia!”
Speaking of this, Fang Qiu turned to glance at the masters of various forces sitting in the hall and asked, “I believe everyone should be able to understand what the consequences would be, right?”
As soon as he stopped, those force leaders immediately frowned, their expressions changing slightly.
“Have the foreign forces set out already?
“How did John Doe receive such breaking news?
“If it is real, who leaked the news on the underground forum?”
Everyone present was shocked by what Fang Qiu had just told them.
As leaders of Wulin forces, people here were all exceptionally shrewd and sophisticated, so they knew well what would happen when these foreign forces came without being invited.
If what John Doe said was true, they would have to face more opponents: the foreign forces. Besides, merely for the sake of Huaxia Wulin’s reputation, they couldn’t lose the ancient relic to foreigners.
If people from outside the country took the relic away from them, Huaxia Wulin would be greatly disgraced!
“Is that true?”
In a state of shock and suspicion, Lin Qingyi hurriedly asked.
“If you don’t believe me, you can log into the underground force forum to check the information,” Fang Qiu told him.
One after another, they took out their phones and logged into the forum.
After skimming through a few web pages, they finally believed him!
All the doubts they had about John Doe a moment ago suddenly dissipated like a breath of wind.
They finally understood why John Doe had rushed over so hurriedly and why he was so insistent that they go to the secret land in Zangjiang ahead of schedule.
All of this was due to the involvement of the foreign forces.
“Humph, how audacious these foreigners are to try and snatch treasures from us?”
“I wonder who would dare to turn up. I’ll deal with them accordingly!”
“Yes, sure, we can put up a fight. But if these foreign forces come for real, the situation will be completely different.”
The faces of each force leader darkened in an instant.
Everyone in Wulin wanted to pocket all the profits for themselves. After all, such an ancient relic that could be found only by chance was too rare an item to share with others. These leaders had the same idea. Since the situation this time was different, they had to compete with each other for opportunities.
The competition within Huaxia Wulin was already very intense. If foreign forces got involved, their chances of getting the ancient treasury would fall drastically.
How could they bear it?
…
“I’ll contact the four great families and the people from Pear Garden immediately.”
Lin Qingyi did not dare to hesitate. Right after saying that, he called the four patriarchs from the four great families and the chief of the Pear Garden.
When they received Lin Qingyi’s call, they were already halfway there.
As the top forces in Huaxia Wulin, they already received information about the foreign forces’ planned invasion only a little later than Fang Qiu.
The four patriarchs arrived soon.
Fang Qiu and the others had completed all the preparations required and were waiting in the square of the Peace Faction.
“Everyone.”
As soon as he landed on the ground, Diwu Mingchuan saluted everyone and said, “The matter this time concerns the reputation of our Huaxia Wulin. We were about to inform you about it initially. However, since our young friend John Doe has informed you in advance, I have nothing more to reveal. I only hope that we can unite as one and not allow outsiders to take what belongs to our country!”
The others nodded in unison.
“Is there anyone else?”
Patriarch Qian looked at Lin Qingyi and asked.
“The chief of the Pear Garden is on the way here and several other force leaders have also been informed. They are now rushing to the airports in different places. Let’s gather at the airport in Sala. We can set off when the chief of the Pear Garden arrives,” Lin Qingyi said to everyone.
“Good.”
The four patriarchs nodded.
“My young friend John Doe, you are much more well-informed than us.”
While waiting, Xi Fengling looked at Fang Qiu with a smile and said, “Even my Xi family only got the news an hour ago. I suppose you must have been halfway here at that time. Am I right?”
“I’m lucky.”
Fang Qiu smiled faintly and said, “I have a habit of browsing the underground force forum. Everyone knows there are many topics about me. This time, I happened to see that post.”
“Is that so?”
Xi Fengling shook her head with a smile. Obviously, she didn’t believe this explanation.
“The chief of the Pear Garden that we’re all waiting for, is he Yun Yangzi’s master?”
Fang Qiu asked Lin Qingyi.
“Yes.”
Lin Qingyi nodded and said, “Master Numinous is the chief of the Pear Garden and Yun Yangzi’s master. Since the Pear Garden was established, he has rarely been in Jianghu. Meng Lingyun, the Pear Garden’s deputy chief attended almost all events on his behalf. I didn’t expect that Master Numinous would come in person this time.”
Everyone was shocked by his words.
“Master Numinous will be coming here personally?”
“How is that possible?”
“He has been cultivating in seclusion for more than ten years, hasn’t he?”
“With Master Numinous’s transcendental bearing, he shouldn’t be attracted by an ancient relic, should he?”
Everyone said, one after another.
It could be seen that except for the four patriarchs, everyone else was shocked when they learned that Master Numinous would personally participate in this mission.
The four patriarchs were all smiling to themselves.
No one spoke.
“I’m late. Please forgive me.”
After a while, a sonorous voice which sounded like a great bell, suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked over.
An elder with white hair and hoary eyebrows, wearing clothes that were as white as pear blossoms, strode over in the air.
At a closer look, the old man’s bushy eyebrows had reached his neck. Though he was old in age, he looked energetic with his slightly chubby and ruddy face.
The others sized him up from head to toe.
His robe, which was as white as pear flowers, was exceptionally long.
The robe completely covered his feet, but as he took steps forward, they noticed that he was barefooted.
“Master Numinous.”
As he appeared, the four patriarchs went up to him in unison and greeted him.
“Greetings, patriarchs.”
Master Numinous smiled and returned their salutes.
Then, with Lin Qingyi as the leader, the masters of all the forces also saluted Master Numinous.
Fang Qiu was also among them.
“Everyone, it’s very kind of you.”
After bowing back, Master Numinous said with a smile and walked over to Fang Qiu. He first looked at him intently and asked, “John Doe?”
Fang Qiu nodded.
“Well, not bad.”
Master Numinous nodded and smiled, “You deserve to be the leader of the younger generation. No wonder you were able to defeat my disciple.”
“You flatter me.”
Fang Qiu replied smilingly, “Yun Yangzi is good. At that time, I only won by a narrow margin.”
“But a narrow victory is also a victory.”
Master Numinous shook his head and said, “Back then, you won by half a move, but now you can defeat him within ten moves. The large gap between you two is obvious at a glance.”
“Uh…”
Fang Qiu was secretly shocked.
This old man seemed to have seen through his combat capability.
But his vision couldn’t have been so penetrating.
Master Numinous must have said this because he had heard of Fang Qiu’s combat achievements and had discerned his strength at a glance.
After all, Fang Qiu’s present strength was nearly as good as what it was before his recultivation.
“Right then.”
Master Numinous chuckled and said, “If there is no one else we need to wait for, then let’s set off.”
“Good.”
Lin Qingyi immediately nodded in agreement.
Then, the group went straight down the mountain, got in a bus parked at the foot of the mountain and made their way to the airport.
Everyone paid for their air tickets.
They bought tickets for the same flight to Sala.
Soon, they arrived at the airport.
After getting off the bus, everyone collected their tickets and then went their separate ways.
After a while, Fang Qiu saw to his surprise that all those people who had just gone their separate ways came back with large backpacks filled with food and water as if they had made a prior agreement.
Fang Qiu gaped in astonishment at the scene.
“Are you going to walk thousands of miles?” he asked.
“My young friend John Doe, we’re all human beings.”
Diwu Mingchuan laughed and said, “As humans, we have to eat and drink. Especially this time, no one knows what we’ll encounter there. After all, the place we are going to is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Besides, we don’t know anything about it. For us, this is an adventure, so we must prepare all these items, like water and food!”
“That’s right.”
Fang Qiu nodded knowingly. Without hesitation, he went to get his own supplies too.
In the end, he bought a camping bag much bigger than everyone else’s. Then he filled it with sorts of useful items and boarded the plane with it.
The plane took off.
Fang Qiu sat quietly in his seat, ready to close his eyes to rest.
Because they bought the tickets almost at the same time, the seats they got were all in the same area and they could see each other.
But unexpectedly…
As soon as the plane stabilized high in the air, he heard some rustling sounds nearby.
He opened his eyes.
He saw Diwu Mingchuan. He had taken off his glasses and rearranged his hair. In addition, with his deep facial features, he appeared somehow attractive. He even began to chat with a stewardess in a low voice.
The air hostess flushed!
Everyone was shocked upon seeing this.
No one had ever seen Diwu Mingchuan behaving in this way before.
He seemed to have become a totally different person. At this time, he was as handsome and mature as those popular models on TV. At this moment, one could completely forget about his age.
Under everyone’s gazes, Diwu Mingchuan kept on chatting zealously with the flight attendant.
Seeing they had attracted many people’s attention, the stewardess hurriedly left, her face flushed in embarrassment.
Diwu Mingchuan grinned and unfastened his seat belt and went after her. Then he followed the flight attendant to the back of the cabin and continued to talk enthusiastically with her.
This scene made everyone speechless.
“This guy is already in his forties, but how could he still hit on such a young stewardess without feeling any shame?”
