Gu Feng looked over at Ling Zhenfei. Initially, everything seed normal, but after taking a closer look at Ling Zhenfei, a hint of shock appeared on his face.
"Who are you, sir?" Gu Feng asked Ling Zhenfei.
Ling Zhenfei replied, "General Gu, hello, I am Ling Zhenfei, from Huaxia."
Gu Feng addressed Ling Zhenfei, "What are you doing here in Moergawa? Moergawa is not welcoming foreigners now."
Ling Zhenfei chuckled and said, "Mr. Gu Feng, you also know about Huaxia's traditions and customs. Huaxia is celebrating the New Year now. Do you really think I wanted to co here?"
"If you didn't want to co, then why are you here anyway?" Gu Feng asked.
Ling Zhenfei said, "My girlfriend was kidnapped in your Moergawa. I couldn't simply enjoy my vacation at ho; I had to co out to rescue her."
"You're here to rescue her, just you alone?" Clearly, Gu Feng was skeptical of Ling Zhenfei's claims.
Ling Zhenfei responded, "One person is enough. It's just that the journey is a bit long, but what's wrong with that?"
Gu Feng snickered, "Indeed, truly impressive. However, with Moergawa in turmoil right now, we're not welcoming anyone, so you better abandon that thought."
Ling Zhenfei snorted, "It's just chaos; what does it have to do with ?"
Gu Feng's eyes widened suddenly, "Kid, I've realized you're really audacious!"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Sotis, one needs to be a bit audacious, or else people will look down on you. If you succeed, everyone will rember you, but if you fail, you remain unknown anyway."
Ling Zhenfei's words were clearly hinting at the current state of Moergawa, ant for Gu Feng to hear. This was because upon seeing Gu Feng, Ling Zhenfei felt that Gu Feng was not an ordinary person.
Gu Feng said, "Being too audacious cos with a price. Do you really want to take such risks? It seems you are an adventurer."
Ling Zhenfei knew that Gu Feng understood what he was talking about. Just now, La Feng had noticed the Northern Spiritual Energy flowing in Gu Feng. Regardless of the depth of his cultivation, cultivating Spiritual Energy does make one enlightened and smarter.
Ling Zhenfei said, "I'm not an adventurer, just soone who feels that if I don't take this risk now, it might cost even more in the future, perhaps disappearing entirely in the river of history."
"Your thoughts, sir, are truly intriguing. But if you go now and get killed, do you not think that's a possibility?"
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "Of course, there's a possibility of getting killed if I go now, but it's extrely small. If I wait until the war is almost over, that's when it will be truly dangerous."
"What you're saying, sir, is truly interesting. Don't you think it's a bit of a pipe dream?" Gu Feng's face showed a hint of surprise.
Ling Zhenfei had just tested Gu Feng with his words. Although he spoke of rescuing his girlfriend, he actually was suggesting that Gu Feng join them. If Gu Feng joined the war now, he could possibly gain a lot.
However, Gu Feng had so reservations in his heart, so he told Ling Zhenfei he would not join in just yet, which disappointed Ling Zhenfei slightly.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Mr. Gu, say no more. My mission is crucial. Even if I know my girlfriend might have been killed, I still have to go to avenge her. That's just the kind of person I am."
Gu Feng nodded, "I wish you a safe journey."
Gu Feng clearly saw that Ling Zhenfei was not an ordinary person. To be on board his warship, surrounded by so many soldiers, and still converse with Gu Feng so composedly, indicates he is no ordinary person.
If it were an ordinary person, upon eting Gu Feng, they would have likely turned pale with fright and been at a loss for words.
But Ling Zhenfei was different; he spoke with logic and even probed Gu Feng with his words.
The people around listened in confusion, but they didn't realize that Ling Zhenfei and Gu Feng had already discussed many things.
At this ti, Gu Feng said to Zhang Bin, "You guys are really sothing, to even know a friend from Huaxia. I don't care if you really are here to pick soone up this ti or if you t soone while doing so.
I'm warning you, the sea has been extrely dangerous lately. Don't set sail, understood? I'm saying this for your good, so you won't bla later if sothing happens and I don't co to save you."
"Understood, boss, we'll be careful." Zhang Bin and Li Wu replied with smiles.
In fact, Ling Zhenfei was very curious about the relationship between Zhang Bin, Li Wu, and Gu Feng.
Logically, it was apparent that Zhang Bin and Li Wu had an unusual relationship with Gu Feng, clearly very familiar with each other, but they weren't military personnel.
Logically, Gu Feng, as a general, should have so official position for Zhang Bin and Li Wu if they were to be so close. But instead, they chose to be pirates, which is truly puzzling.
Gu Feng said, "It's getting late. How about we go inside for a drink?"
As Gu Feng spoke, he glanced at Ling Zhenfei, clearly indicating that Ling Zhenfei was also included in their group.
Zhang Bin and Li Wu looked at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Since we're all here, of course, we should go for a drink. After all, tomorrow I'll take Mr. Ling to Nakajima to complete the rescue."
The group entered the ship's cabin and arrived at the place where Gu Feng resided, and soone had already prepared food and drinks. The four of them sat around the table.
Moergawa's dietary habits retained the traditions of Huaxia, and the flavor of the food was quite similar to that of Huaxia, so Ling Zhenfei had no trouble adapting to it.
Gu Feng said to Ling Zhenfei, "Mr. Ling, now that there are no outsiders here, let's speak frankly. What are you really here for in Moergawa?"
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "I ca to Moergawa truly to rescue my girlfriend. Who would've thought things would be this lively here, which took by surprise."
Gu Feng said, "A master like you, Mr. Ling, moving around, is truly rare."
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, not expecting Gu Feng to notice how strong he was, though he wasn't sure what exactly Gu Feng knew about his strength.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Indeed, those cultivators striving for quick progress often need to forget worldly distractions. People like are indeed rare."
Zhang Bin and Li Wu said, "Mr. Ling, what exactly is your strength level? We brothers can't see through it at all."
Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "I'm just a bit higher than you, that's all."
Ling Zhenfei had seen through Zhang Bin and Li Wu's strength the first ti he t them. The two were rely at the Mingmu Initial Stage, and in front of Ling Zhenfei, they were like children in kindergarten.
Gu Feng's strength was a bit more advanced, but he was only at the Late Stage of Mingmu Realm, still a distance away from a true master. However, for a general or a prince to have this level of strength was already comndable.
Ling Zhenfei said, "General Gu, I'm quite interested in Moergawa now. I heard Zhang Bin and Li Wu say that Mao Sharlu isn't a bad person."
Gu Feng said, "That's right, in these past years leading Moergawa, Mao Sharlu has been striving hard to develop the region. But Moergawa's foundation is too weak, so it's not easy to grow strong; he can only genuinely put effort into developing tourism.
