Chapter 2340 - 2339: Xuantian City
Ling Feng chuckled and stepped forward, "Of course I like it. You act out of instinct, and my instinct just happens to love this kind of thing the most!"
After saying that, he lunged at her directly!
When morning came the next day, holding Mu Mu in his arms, Ling Feng said, "Actually, there’s something I should have told you last night."
"I know! You’re going to leave soon, right?" Mu Mu asked.
Ling Feng was taken aback and turned to look at her, "Did Xiao Xiao tell you?"
"Yes!"
Mu Mu nodded and then smiled faintly, "If you really have to leave and can’t come back, it’s okay. I will spend a lifetime thinking of you."
Ling Feng was moved and held her tight, "I will try to find a way. If I can break through the time-space barrier, I could come back. It’s just that I haven’t found a method yet."
"I believe in you. If you set your mind to it, there will definitely be a way!" Mu Mu pressed her head against his chest, speaking softly.
The two were still sweet-talking each other when Xiao Xiao’s voice came from outside, "Hey, time to get up!"
From the tone, it sounded somewhat unhappy. Ling Feng shook his head helplessly, while Mu Mu rolled her eyes and mumbled something as she got up to dress.
By the time she and Ling Feng went out, Xiao Xiao had already left, and they didn’t know where she went.
Exchanging glances, Ling Feng and Mu Mu both shook their heads helplessly.
There were still a few days before departure, so Ling Feng didn’t idle and focused on supervising the training progress of the Ling Family Army.
With a large supply of Mystical Spirit Stones, everyone’s progress was very fast.
However, since raising a normal person’s physique takes time, their speed was naturally slower than his.
Because he needed to explore the outside world and gather more information, Ling Feng wasn’t sure how long he would be away. Therefore, he talked multiple times with the captains of the Ling Family Army, repeatedly instructing them on what to do if anything happened in his absence.
Additionally, he specifically visited the Dark Clan and communicated with the elder he had met before.
If strong enemies attacked Ling Family Village while he was away, apart from the soldiers of the Ling Family Army, the rest of the elderly, infirm, and young in the village could follow the Dark Clan into the depths of the jungle.
After careful consideration, Ling Feng planned for all possible scenarios.
Once things were settled, Ling Yao and Amaterasu also broke through the third layer of the Hidden Dragon Technique.
Afterward, Ling Feng decided to set off immediately, as there were only just over fifty days remaining.
However, concerning who would accompany him on the journey, because everyone wanted to go with him and it was necessary to leave people at Ling Family Village, Ling Feng resorted to drawing lots to make the decision.
It turned out Mu Mu and Amaterasu drew the lots to stay behind, while Ling Yao and Xiao Xiao drew the lots to leave with him.
Accepting the outcome of gambling, Mu Mu and Amaterasu had no objections and accepted it calmly.
Thus, that morning, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Ling Feng, Ling Yao, and Xiao Xiao soared into the sky and flew toward the southern side of the Dark Forest!
From the Earth superpower users he had encountered earlier, Ling Feng learned of the existence of Xuantian City, so he decided to go check it out.
This place was definitely large, and given the arrangements when they teleported into the Xuanling Realm, he felt it was possible he might find Long Xiaoyu here.
The distance of five hundred kilometers was actually not close.
Their speed of flying in the air was fast, but it still took all morning before they saw the end of the forest and a series of mountain ranges appeared far away.
Among those mountains was a tall peak with dense buildings scattered from the top to the foot of the mountain; Xuantian City was built entirely on the mountain.
The elevation difference was several hundred meters, and Ling Feng couldn’t help but click his tongue, "The architecture here is indeed quite unique!"
As an inhabitant of the Xuanling Realm, Xiao Xiao was shocked to see Xuantian City too, as she hadn’t even heard of this place before.
To avoid attracting attention, the three landed twenty kilometers away and then walked toward that side.
As they approached Xuantian City, Ling Feng and the others saw some people heading to that city.
The area surrounding Xuantian City was mountainous, but there were roads built on the black rubble.
These people were grouped in threes and fives, carrying heavy luggage or items, looking like they were moving to the city.
Some pushed wheelbarrows filled with various sundries, resembling peddlers.
Seeing this, Ling Feng remembered something important and turned to look at Xiao Xiao, "By the way, what do they use to buy things around here?"
"Uh..."
Xiao Xiao was a bit confused too, "In our village and between other villages, we trade things. As for here, I don’t know!"
"Alright."
Ling Feng thought, hoping it’s not something difficult to obtain. It would be great if it’s Mystical Spirit Stones!
His Space-capturing Mirror had plenty of those!
But if it’s something else, he’ll have to earn it somehow, and he wasn’t keen on starting from scratch as someone penniless.
The three of them merged with the people heading to Xuantian City. Since there was a variety of clothing styles among them, Ling Feng and his companions didn’t stand out.
During the journey, Xiao Xiao casually chatted with the people around and learned they were truly seeking a place to live in Xuantian City. They were all from nearby villages or towns, driven by troubles at home to do so.
As for the reasons for the disasters, Xiao Xiao inquired and found they varied, including floods, fires, or attacks by groups of wild beasts.
Anyway, they were all refugees.
Ling Feng heard this and thought that the Xuanling Realm was not peaceful at all!
He then pondered the alien civilization that created this place, feeling quite speechless.
Owners of immense strength, yet indifferent to the Xuanling Realm?
Is this place meant solely as a Trial Space, without other significance?
With this speechlessness, Ling Feng and the others slowly approached Xuantian City along with the refugees.
From afar, the city appeared upright, but as they got closer, it lost that impression.
The city’s scale became incredibly vast, exceeding the limits of their vision. The buildings were layered, with stairways and smooth paths leading to higher levels.
At the foot of the mountain, there were many buildings surrounding the mountain body, but compared to those on the mountain, these were quite run-down.
Ling Feng could tell at a glance that the houses at the foot were slums.
Despite being a place for the poor to reside, these houses were surrounded by walls, with each entrance having guards.
Ling Feng and his group moved forward with the refugees, watching as one after another passed inspections and entered the city, thinking entry seemed relatively easy.
Yet unexpectedly, when it was their turn, the three of them were stopped!
