By this ti, the sky had already begun to darken. Although the forest was extrely unsafe at night, Ling Zhenfei still planned to continue on.
Having calculated the ti, it was really very tight. If Ling Zhenfei were to set out in the morning, he really didn't know if he could reach the Capital City before the fifteenth.
The two of them didn't hesitate, as they were already at the edge of the Outer Mountain of Xianling Mountain, where there weren't any powerful beasts, so they didn't stop and continued to hurry on through the night.
Close to the Inner Mountain of Xianling Mountain, it was all prival forest, and at night it was so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
But the further out you walked, the better it got, at least there was so light at night.
Especially as they moved outward, the trees gradually beca shorter, and eventually there were even so areas with more shrubs.
Ling Zhenfei and Ru ng sprinted wildly; both were now masters of the Realm of Reaching Wisdom, and Ling Zhenfei's strength had recovered, making it much faster than when they arrived.
It took them only half the night to successfully exit Xianling Mountain.
"What do you plan to do next?" Ling Zhenfei asked Ru ng.
Ru ng said, "Although I'm now in the Realm of Reaching Wisdom, my strength hasn't stabilized yet. I still want to go into Xianling Mountain to cultivate."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Didn't you want to see the outside world? Did you forget?"
Ru ng said, "Of course I haven't forgotten, but you don't have ti now. Once I've stabilized my strength and you have ti, I can go out."
Ling Zhenfei said, "That's fine too. You cultivate well, and once I'm done with my errands, I'll co find you."
"How will you know where I am to find ?" Ru ng asked with a smile.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Isn't that simple? You're either on a tree by the Pile of Rocks or in the cave behind the waterfall."
Ru ng said, "Alright, then co find ."
There seed to be a trace of reluctance in Ru ng's deanor.
In the cave behind the waterfall, their shared passion benefited both greatly, with Ru ng successfully breaking through the Realm of Reaching Wisdom.
Not only did Ling Zhenfei heal his injuries, but his strength also advanced to the Late Dawen Realm.
After they parted, Ling Zhenfei drove directly towards the airport, driving as fast as he could.
It was already the fifteenth day of the lunar month, a day for family reunions.
Ling Zhenfei called Chen Qian.
When the call connected, Chen Qian's voice ca through.
"Zhenfei, how's it going over there?"
Ling Zhenfei replied, "Everything is going smoothly; I've already made it out and got the herbs, but I'm running short on ti now."
Chen Qian said, "No worries, there's still ti. I'll book you a ticket right away; you should be able to make it."
Ling Zhenfei said, "But there's no ti left for alchemy."
Chen Qian replied, "Just get on the plane first. There's still ti to make elixirs once you get here."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright, book the ticket for ."
Chen Qian said, "Hold on, let check for you."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Okay, check. How's the junior sister's health?"
Chen Qian replied, "Her health seems a lot better than before, and she seems to be in a good mood."
Ling Zhenfei said, "I'm just worried it's a false recovery."
Chen Qian said, "Yes, that's what I'm worried about too."
Ling Zhenfei said, "No problem. As long as I get there today, as long as the alchemy can proceed normally, it'll be fine."
At that mont, Chen Qian had already looked up the flight information and said, "I'm afraid you can't catch the flight from Binyang to the Capital City; you'll have to take the train."
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, "Why can't I make it?"
Chen Qian replied, "It's about to depart; you probably won't make it."
Ling Zhenfei said, "No, the train is too slow. Stick with the plane, book the ticket now."
Chen Qian said, "Alright, let try."
After a while, Chen Qian said, "No can do, it's too close to departure ti to book a ticket."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry about it, I have a way."
After that, Ling Zhenfei hung up, thinking over who could handle this. Zhou Xia ca to mind; her position should be able to deal with this sort of thing.
And Ling Zhenfei didn't need much ti, just at most an hour.
Zhou Xia's phone quickly connected.
"What's up, Brother Ling? What made you think of calling ?" Perhaps she wasn't at work yet, Zhou Xia's voice didn't sound like she was in work mode.
Ling Zhenfei said, "I have sothing to ask of you, so I called."
Zhou Xia was surprised, "So straightforward? Not even a bit of small talk."
Ling Zhenfei said, "It's urgent, no ti for small talk, let cut to the chase."
"Okay, go ahead," Zhou Xia was understanding of the situation.
Ling Zhenfei said, "I have an urgent matter and need to get to the Capital City. The plane from Binyang is about to take off and I can't buy a ticket; I was hoping you could pull so strings so the plane waits for a little."
Zhou Xia paused for a mont before saying, "Isn't that abuse of power?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "Sister, it's just a small favor. If I bought a ticket, shouldn't they wait a bit even if I haven't arrived? Besides, it's for a legitimate reason, I've done my service for the country."
Zhou Xia replied, "But it's really inappropriate. I'm in a bit of a bind."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Help this ti, and I'll repay the favor."
Zhou Xia thought for a mont and said, "Alright, I heard sothing involving you recently, explain to first."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned, not knowing what needed explaining to Zhou Xia.
"What is it, sister? If I know, I'll tell you."
Zhou Xia said, "No need to be slick, you definitely know about this."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Then tell ."
Zhou Xia said, "I'll give you a hint; you should know Moergawa, right?"
Ling Zhenfei was shocked, not expecting Zhou Xia to bring up Moergawa, but how could this relate to Zhou Xia?
Zhou Xia said, "There was a coup in Moergawa recently and the new Emperor is in power. The information has been released, and I heard that the key player was soone nad Ling Zhenfei. That's you, isn't it?"
Ling Zhenfei was taken aback by how quickly the news spread.
Ling Zhenfei said, "Sister, how did you know?"
Zhou Xia said, "I received a ssage from above. If you didn't find , I would have sought you out. Be honest."
Knowing he couldn't hide it, Ling Zhenfei admitted, "That's right, sister, it's indeed related to . What do you want to say?"
Zhou Xia said, "I also heard you were titled a Prince of Moergawa with a large island as your fief."
Ling Zhenfei was quite frustrated, thinking this matter was discreet, yet Zhou Xia knew so much.
