Chapter 2386: Chapter 2385: Request
"No, I knew you would come today."
Feiyan shook her head and pointed to the seat opposite the table, "Sit."
"Thanks."
Ling Feng nodded and sat down on the ground.
Feiyan put down the book in her hand and looked up at Ling Feng, "You must be very curious why I came looking for you yesterday and specially went to the shop today. What is it all for?"
"Exactly!"
Ling Feng nodded, "I think it’s probably because you want me to help with something?"
"Yes!"
Feiyan nodded and continued, "That’s indeed the case!"
"What do you need me to do?" Ling Feng asked.
"This matter needs to be kept secret. Before I tell you, can you promise not to mention it to anyone at Lingjian Mountain?" Feiyan asked.
Ling Feng was briefly stunned but still nodded, "Sure, you wouldn’t make me do anything against my conscience, so I’ll agree."
"Of course not something that will trouble you."
Feiyan nodded, and then continued, "Actually, it’s quite simple; I just want you to help me find something."
"Oh? What is it?"
Ling Feng hadn’t expected it to be such a matter, so he asked.
"It’s a special metal unique to Lingjian Mountain, I need it to craft weapons." Feiyan said.
"Oh, that?"
Ling Feng laughed, and then said, "That’s easy, I’m best at finding things!"
"Really? That’s good."
Feiyan nodded and continued, "Once we find it, I will reward you. I won’t let you do it for nothing."
"Oh, alright."
Ling Feng thought to himself, we’re not that familiar, saying no directly would be inappropriate, and it would seem too purpose-driven.
So he continued to ask, "What kind of benefits do you plan to give me?"
"Here are some things I’ve collected, see if there’s anything you want."
Feiyan’s palm glowed, and a wooden box appeared beside her.
Then she continued, "I know you’re not short of money, so I won’t give you those things."
"Okay."
Ling Feng nodded, seeing her open the box, he glanced inside.
Inside were a few books, some beads, and a few metal objects whose purpose was unclear.
"These may appear useless, but they’re the best I’ve ever discovered and are quite useful," Feiyan said.
"Oh."
Ling Feng didn’t ask much, casually picking up a bead, "What is this?"
"Seven Heavens." Feiyan said.
"What does it mean?"
Ling Feng was taken aback.
"Inside are seven layers of space, varying in size. Some have nothing, while others have some resources like trees and minerals," Feiyan said.
"..."
Ling Feng was speechless.
Isn’t this similar to his Nine Heavens?
Only, his Nine Heavens was within a sword, whereas this was just a simple bead.
Caught by curiosity, Ling Feng quickly asked, "Doesn’t this need charging?"
"Charging?"
Feiyan was astonished and immediately asked, "How do you know about charging? Most people who hear about Seven Heavens first think of its mystique, but you’re considering another point."
"It’s nothing really. I have something similar to yours, but it’s Nine Heavens." Ling Feng said.
"You actually have a Nine Heaven?"
Feiyan was stunned, exclaiming.
"Yeah, it’s just two more layers than yours. Why are you so surprised?" Ling Feng asked, puzzled.
"Seven Heavens is already rare in the world, but you have top-tier Nine Heavens!"
Feiyan was quite surprised, then asked, "But you have Nine Heavens, so theoretically your realm should have reached Ascending Realm, free from natural law constraints!"
"No, it’s mainly about my physique," Ling Feng said.
"Oh, right, I forgot about what you said last night."
Feiyan nodded, then continued, "But that’s already impressive. You must have obtained quite a lot from it, right?"
"It’s alright."
Ling Feng smiled, "I’ve got quite a few things, but they were quickly consumed up, now Nine Heavens is just a place for leisure."
"That’s still nice."
Feiyan remarked, then asked, "Anything in these interests you?"
"I’ll take this Seven Heavens then, even though you’ve used it, as a memento." Ling Feng said.
"Alright!"
Feiyan nodded and then said, "Once we return, I will give you even better rewards."
"No need, it’s merely a small favor," Ling Feng said.
Feiyan smiled, saying no more, then asked, "When do you have time?"
"Right now."
Ling Feng looked at her, "By the way, how long will this take?"
"Slow, two days, fast, we can return in a bit more than a day," Feiyan said.
"That’s perfect, I’ve just decided to reopen three days later, so I’m free until then," Ling Feng said.
"If that’s the case, let’s set off now. If all goes well, we’ll be back by this time tomorrow." Feiyan said.
Ling Feng nodded, "Alright."
He didn’t bother with further preparations; he was already here, might as well just set off.
However, after departing, mid-way he realized they agreed to return tonight, but clearly wouldn’t, Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu would surely think too much!
Even if he explained later, they probably wouldn’t believe it!
Thinking of this, Ling Feng shook his head helplessly.
The two flew side by side, bypassing Lingjian Mountain and continuing northward.
Ling Feng and Feiyan flew swiftly, through the whistling wind, Ling Feng saw a stretch of forest ahead, and beyond that forest was a white line, not knowing what it was.
But since Feiyan mentioned it would take quite some time, perhaps they’d be flying past the forest.
Eventually he would naturally discover what that white line was.
No words on the road, they flew for quite a while until the sky darkened, and before them appeared a stretch of undulating white mountains; Feiyan signaled Ling Feng to descend.
Soon, they landed at the edge of a forest; there was a meadow filled with green grass between here and the mountains.
After landing, Feiyan said to Ling Feng, "Those mountains are our destination, but it’s about to get dark. I’m wondering if you plan to camp in the forest or go into the mountains?"
"I think both are fine, it doesn’t matter where."
Ling Feng said, then asked, "You’re definitely more familiar with this place than I am, where do you think is suitable?"
"I’m also here for the first time, not familiar at all."
Feiyan shook her head, then said, "How about in this forest, at least we’ll have wood for a fire."
