Chapter 399: Chapter 399 Mutual Admiration
Under everyone’s gaze, Li Yuan stretched out his little hand and opened the box.
Imdiately afterward, everyone saw what was inside, and the most eye-catching items were naturally the two fist-sized white stones!
"Pick up one, hold it in front of the cara, and give soone at the scene a good look!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
Li Yun didn’t know what was going on, but still did as instructed.
Li Fei’er’s phone was quite high-end, and the Spirit Stone was captured very completely in front of the cara, in every detail, and even the misty energy inside could be seen!
The scene instantly beca silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop!
Ling Feng turned his head and saw Luther’s eyes about to pop out, and imdiately felt very pleased with himself!
After a slight smile, he said to Li Yun, "Alright, put them away now, and later take them to Qian Qian’s place, in the safest spot we have."
"Understood, when will you be back?" Li Yun asked softly as he put away the Spirit Stones.
"It’s only been a day, it should take another two days I guess, I’ll tell you what happened when I get back," Ling Feng said with a laugh.
"Understood."
Li Yun said one line, and the screen instantly turned black as the video call was disconnected.
"How about it? Do you believe now?"
Ling Feng turned back and looked at Luther with a cold chuckle.
"You, you..."
Luther, pointing at Ling Feng, opened his mouth but couldn’t find the words to speak!
Ling Feng gave him a glance and then turned to address the audience, "Now everyone knows, right? I have two superior Spirit Stones, and they are both much larger than Luther’s. So I wasn’t shirking responsibility earlier, our Huaxian security departnt truly looks down on that piece of junk, and we have no need to steal from ourselves!"
His statent was resolute, leaving no room for rebuttal from anyone who heard it!
After all, they all saw it; his Spirit Stones were indeed larger and better!
No one spoke at the scene. Zhang He’s eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at Ling Feng. He then walked over and whispered in his ear, "You sly dog, keeping your cards close to your chest!"
"Heh, if it weren’t for desperation, I wouldn’t have brought them out. It’s mainly because that Luther is too arrogant!" Ling Feng said with a laugh.
"That’s true, you’ve really slapped his face hard this ti, and the sound was crisp!" Zhang He laughed and patted Ling Feng’s shoulder.
The two conversed quietly without giving Luther another glance, yet the latter seed unable to sit still and said to Ling Feng, "Is what you said earlier still valid?"
"What?" Ling Feng turned to look at him.
"If my Spirit Stone can’t be found, you’ll compensate
with that one!" Luther said.
Ling Feng’s mouth curved into a smirk, "Sure, but rest assured, I will definitely find your ’little thing’!"
Luther: "..."
Now, having seen a larger and better Spirit Stone, he felt his own little stone was quite embarrassing to show and swallowed hard, thinking to himself, "I actually hope you don’t find it now!"
...
...
After quashing Luther’s arrogance, a thorough search operation comnced at the venue. Everyone from the Huaxian security bureau, whether they were part of the security detail or not, now turned into workers, aiding in the search for the missing Spirit Stone.
The main subjects of the search were the people, but the Spirit Stone could also have been hidden in a secluded corner, so there was a lot to do, and it was complicated.
Ling Feng wanted to help, but Zhang He pulled him aside, "Don’t go there. Just wait here with ."
"Really? Wouldn’t that be giving
special treatnt?" Ling Feng asked with a smile.
Zhang He glanced at him, "You have the privilege!"
Ling Feng chuckled slyly and didn’t beat around the bush, "Because of the Spirit Stone?"
A hint of embarrassnt flashed across Zhang He’s face, followed by a shake of the head, "Not entirely!"
"Oh?"
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, "Then what else?"
"Also because you helped
just now, personally, I’m willing to offer you this special treatnt," Zhang He said indifferently.
Although he was expressionless, Ling Feng still felt the sincerity and smiled, "I think you’re pretty good, we could be friends!"
Intending to rely exchange pleasantries, to his surprise, Zhang He took it further, "Is that so? How about transferring to Demon Capital to work with ?"
"Uh..."
Ling Feng was taken aback and then shook his head with a wry smile, "That might not be easy!"
"You an Chen Ping, the loose cannon? Don’t worry, I naturally have a way to make him loosen up and let you go," Zhang He said.
"It’s not that, you’ve misunderstood; it’s not because of Director Chen that I can’t leave, but because my ho is there. Although the big city is nice, I still prefer the countryside," Ling Feng explained with a smile.
Zhang He looked at him seriously and asked with curiosity, "The scenery from earlier, was that your ho?"
"Yep, why?" Ling Feng asked.
"Nothing, just surprised!" Zhang He stated flatly.
"Hehe, I’m a farr and a bachelor, you know what I an," Ling Feng said with an awkward laugh.
The two were whispering when Joanna ca over, her eyes twinkling, "What are you two talking about?"
"Nothing much, just chit-chatting. Did you find anything?" Zhang He glanced at her and said nonchalantly.
"Of course, otherwise do you think I ca here to slack off?"
Joanna rolled her eyes and pointed at the device they were just examining, "Check this out, I’m afraid we won’t find the Spirit Stone at the scene!"
Hearing this, Ling Feng and Zhang He hastily stepped forward.
"This pattern, if I’m not mistaken, is a Teleportation Array," Joanna said, pointing to the inside of the device.
"What?"
Ling Feng was taken aback and took a closer look imdiately.
Unfortunately, the pattern was so faint that it was impossible to make out what it depicted.
Looking up in shock, he turned to Joanna, "The Teleportation Array you ntioned, is it the kind that can teleport things to other places?"
"Yeah, what else?" Joanna shrugged her shoulders.
Ling Feng was speechless; the Illusionary Ring was a tool for teleportation, so he could accept the existence of such things.
But what he hadn’t expected was that soone could potentially teleport objects away with just a drawing!
If what Joanna said was correct, then the situation might really be troubleso!
"It seems so. The Spirit Stone emitted energy when it was detected, activating the Teleportation Array, and then it disappeared without a trace," Zhang He concluded after examining for a while, frowning.
Ling Feng’s face turned gloomy; the absence of the Spirit Stone at the site ant the chances of retrieving it were zero, and didn’t that an he had to fulfill his earlier promise?
Seeing his strange expression, Joanna seed to sense sothing and chuckled lightly, "Don’t be so tense, just because sothing is lost doesn’t an it can’t be found. Besides, you didn’t agree to compensate Luther right away, did you?"
Ling Feng paused, and seeing her wink at him, he quickly grasped her aning, "That’s right, I said I’d compensate if it couldn’t be found, but I didn’t set a deadline. We have to keep looking; sooner or later we’ll find it!"
"Smart!" Joanna gave a thumbs up.
