Whoosh!!
That day, ten o’clock in the morning.
The small white-gray private plane pierced through the sky, leaving the last high-altitude border of Chi Country.
"What’s the current situation?"
Chen Feng sat on a leather sofa by the window, seemingly gazing outside, but in truth pondering internally.
Several hours had passed since Yang Wudi and others had sent a ssage, but despite his attempts to contact them, no further communication ca through as if they had vanished into thin air.
The matter concerned clues about divine attributes fragnts, and added to the suspicion of the two missing persons.
After thinking for a mont, he decided to check the situation personally.
"The electromagnetic signals are still unreachable, with strong interference blocking them, making it impossible to determine their current location."
"The only confird detail is their last sighting was in the eastern part of Lou Yue Country."
Star Spirit responded in his mind, aiding in tracing and pinpointing the clues.
Chen Feng nodded upon hearing this, and soon a cup of coffee was handed over.
"The situation in Lou Yue Country has beco complicated lately, not allowing ard flying devices to enter; traffic control is quite strict."
"We should be able to reach the agreed private airport by four in the afternoon... But why did you suddenly decide to go to Lou Yue Country?"
Lin Hao asked with a smile, dressed in a light gray suit, holding an orange juice in his other hand.
Behind him stood familiar figures of Uncle Liu and Yuan Yueshan.
The forr wore a black suit and shirt, with white gloves, giving off a gentlemanly vibe as always.
As for the latter, robust in build, wearing a dark trench coat.
Chen Feng sensed briefly and could clearly detect the concealed and restrained electromagnetic energy field on the other, which had reached the strong Fifth Rank level.
"Yang Wudi went missing in Lou Yue."
Retracting his gaze, Chen Feng accepted the coffee.
Upon hearing this, Lin Hao’s eyes widened, and the accompanying guards, Uncle Liu and Yuan Yueshan, also showed expressions of shock and doubt.
"Hasn’t he already transcended? Is there soone in Lou Yue Country capable of harming him?"
Coming to his senses, Lin Hao sat next to Chen Feng, puzzled and inquiring.
If he didn’t know Chen Feng’s character, he would’ve thought the other was joking.
After all, Lou Yue Country is just a small nation in the southwestern part of Chi Country, plagued by long-term warlord divisions, overall weaker even than Nido.
Few Sixth Order Flying Generals exist, and Yang Wudi’s strength could certainly dominate this area.
Yet he suddenly disappeared?
"Unclear of the reason, that’s why I need to take a look."
Shaking his head, Chen Feng took a sip of coffee.
The taste was sowhat bitter, and he promptly set it down.
"Is that so...."
"I heard rumors of recent unrest in Lou Yue - several high-level officials have died, could he have gotten involved in all this?"
Lin Hao automatically filled in several scenarios in his mind, recalling the recent news from Lou Yue.
Chen Feng shook his head, refraining from answering, only silently gazing at the slightly dim sky outside the window.
High-ranking officials were assassinated by mbers of the Evil God Church, ard conflict erupted among warlords...
Because of this, the situation within Lou Yue Country is extrely sensitive, highly resistant to foreign ard forces.
Initially, he planned to enter through military connections.
Later, considering the special nature of divine fragnts and the tense situation within Lou Yue Country, he changed strategy to avoid further agitating the locals and drawing excessive attention.
As for Lin Hao.
The reason for his accompanint was quite straightforward.
"Once we get to the airport, I’ll talk to people at Tonghe Group to help investigate the clues."
Lin Hao asked no further questions but instead offered assistance.
Jade Biotechnology is a massive conglorate, and besides being prominent in Chi Country, it holds so notoriety in the southwestern region of the Eastern Continent, with nurous business partners.
For instance, Tonghe Group, a local company in Lou Yue Country.
That’s precisely why Chen Feng contacted them.
"Thanks."
Chen Feng expressed gratitude, knowing such matters carry inherent risks.
"It’s nothing."
"If it weren’t for you helping back then, I wouldn’t have been able to retrieve my things."
Lin Hao said with a wave of his hand, still recalling when Chen Feng invited the White Giant’s aid.
If not for that, he would’ve struggled to inherit his father’s legacy and beco a director at Jade Biotechnology.
Soon enough, they exchanged smiles.
Having supported each other to this day, their bond had long surpassed others.
Without further ntion of past events, they quickly dived into the main topic, casually chatting while planning their next steps.
........
Whoosh!!
Eastern Lou Yue Country, a vast desert land.
White-gray mountains undulate endlessly, vegetation is scarce, with only sparse patches of Green Field.
Gales swept through, stirring up sand, leading to a Gobi Canyon at the desert’s end.
Footprints were buried by the sand, revealing a spectacular and steep canyon, several hundred ters deep.
Looking around, it seed endless, with rocky ravines at the sandy bottom resembling dried stream tracks.
Upon raising one’s sight, on the rocky terrain of the canyon’s Gobi, were thousands of maze-like cavern entrances.
Dark, profound, seemingly bottomless, connecting to so unknown place, even devouring sunlight from above.
Occasionally, shadows of people moved here, wearing ragged jackets, lips chapped, resembling wandering scavengers, attempting to delve into the caves but soon perishing silently.
"Are you sure those two went in as well?"
Silently observing all of this, figures lood above the canyon, clad in black robes.
Their only exposed eyes sowhat resembled vertical pupils, appearing non-human, emitting a cold sensation.
"Walker, absolutely sure!"
"That man and woman were fierce, killed several of us from the Church, and forcefully broke in."
