Chapter 1667: Chapter 1666: diation
After taking a deep breath, the voice from inside the cha said, "Ling Feng, stop causing trouble. Destroying this base isn’t good for anyone!"
Ling Feng realized the other person was genuinely anxious, so he nodded, "Alright then."
After speaking, he called out in his mind to Tian Lian, who surprisingly answered right away, "Master, what’s wrong?"
"It’s okay now, I’m fine. Co back!"
"Alright!"
Tian Lian replied and then swiftly returned to the Jade Pendant from the entrance.
Ling Feng turned to look at the cha, "Now what do you have to say?"
"You’ll pay for this!" the other person said angrily.
"Alright, enough venting, let’s talk business!" Ling Feng rolled his eyes and said.
"Arica does not welco you. Please leave imdiately, and take a flight back!" the other person said.
"Sorry, I’ve co to participate in the competition, and I won’t leave until it’s over!" Ling Feng said.
"We’ll cancel your participation. As for your team, they can stay!" the other person said.
Ling Feng felt speechless, glanced at the cha, and regretted not knowing who was speaking or what kind of mind they had to say such things.
After a mont of silence, he sneered, "It’s ridiculous. Do you think you can just cancel my qualification? How will the international community see you? Have you thought about that?"
"We don’t care. Arica is number one in the world; what we say goes, and others have to listen!" the other person said.
"Damn, your shalessness is unparalleled!"
Ling Feng rolled his eyes again and said, "Don’t worry, I won’t leave. I will participate in the competition. If you’re unhappy, feel free to send soone to eject —provided you can!"
"...."
The cha fell silent again, presumably to discuss counterasures with others.
Ling Feng wasn’t in a hurry, standing there with a defiant smile, waiting patiently.
After a while, the voice returned with a slightly threatening tone, "Ling Feng, aren’t you afraid we’ll harm Catherine?"
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng was stunned, only then rembering Catherine was in their hands.
But after a mont’s thought, he smiled and said, "Catherine is one of yours, and I barely know her. If you want to use one of your own people’s lives to threaten , what can I do?"
"You!"
The comnt obviously hit a sore spot, leaving the other person speechless again.
Then, the voice changed to a sowhat elderly tone, "Ling Feng, the title of number one on the Superpower Users combat ranking truly lives up to its na!"
"Who are you?"
Hearing the change, Ling Feng knew Arica thought the previous person was incompetent in negotiations and revoked their speaking privileges.
Now it was an old man, judging by the tone and rhythm, he was probably a Huaxia native.
"My surna is Fang, call
Fang Zhou."
"I don’t know you, never heard of you!"
Ling Feng shook his head, then laughed, "Old man, you’re from Huaxia here in Arica, right?"
"Yes, I’ve been here for twenty years, dedicating myself to cultural exchanges between the two sides. By coincidence, I’m here today, so I thought I’d try to diate." Fang Zhou said.
"Is that so? How do you intend to diate?"
Ling Feng was taken aback, thinking the old man’s appearance was a good thing. Otherwise, without either side willing to concede, wouldn’t this drag on forever?
Fang Zhou chuckled, then said, "How about this: the military was in the wrong first with their retaliatory behavior. Your people also caused so damage to the secret base, and both sides have suffered losses. However, Mr. Ling, your losses appear minimal, so why not let both parties drop the issue and move on?"
Hearing this, Ling Feng imdiately nodded, "Alright, let’s drop it then!"
He was clearly taking advantage of the situation. He was almost controlled, but unhard with no real loss, whereas Arica suffered differently. Who knows what Tian Lian did inside the base? But the downed plane was real.
A fighter jet plus a pilot must be worth tens of millions of US Dollars, right?
Clearly, Ling Feng had the better deal, and he was satisfied with it.
After nodding, he quickly added, "But I have one more condition!"
"You an about the competition? Since Mr. Ling is interested, feel free to stay and watch, just don’t participate, is that okay?" Fang Zhou asked.
"Sure, I agree!"
Ling Feng nodded, then said, "But that’s not it; where’s Catherine? Release her imdiately!"
"Well..."
Fang Zhou was taken aback, then after a montary pause, said, "I can’t make the decision on this matter; it requires discussion before I can respond!"
"No problem, I’ll wait!"
Ling Feng smiled and found a clean rock to sit on, waiting for a response.
In the anti, the cha emitted a hissing sound, followed by the opening of a gap, from which a small figure erged, rubbing his head as he jumped down.
Ling Feng glanced at him. The man was small and wiry, and the cha’s internal space seed custom-made for him. A few more centiters of height, and he wouldn’t have fit inside.
Seeing the appearance of the cha pilot, Ling Feng knew it was the aftermath of his Mind Soul Art, so he ignored him.
Soon, Fang Zhou’s voice ca from the cha, "Ling Feng, the Aricans agreed to release Catherine, but she cannot leave Arican soil or return with you to Huaxia. You must agree to this!"
"Fine, I agree!"
Ling Feng nodded, then asked, "Where is she?"
"Once released, she’ll naturally go to the hotel to find you!" Fang Zhou said.
Ling Feng was taken aback, then narrowed his eyes, "You’re not lying to , are you?"
"Of course not. If the military breaks their promise, this base won’t just disappear. You can always co back for revenge, can’t you?" Fang Zhou laughed.
"That’s true!"
Ling Feng nodded, then said, "Alright, I’ll trust you this once!"
Having said that, he stood up, ready to leave.
But after just one step, an alert rose within him. Ling Feng used his Divine Sense to scan and saw the cha’s pilot pulling out a gun, aiming it at him!
"Bang!"
The sound of a gunshot echoed as a bullet flew straight at the back of Ling Feng’s head!
"I hate it when people point guns at !"
The small man was still surprised that the person in front of him had suddenly vanished. Then he heard a voice behind him, making him shudder!
Just as he was about to turn around, his nape was forcefully struck, rendering him unconscious!
Ling Feng turned to look at the cha and shouted, "Old Fang, did you see this? Is this what Aricans call sincerity?"
