The air in different places had different smells. Suzhou and Hangzhou had the smell of Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Beijing had the smell of Beijing.
It had only been a few months since he left Beijing, but Ling Chen suddenly felt that it had been a long time. The air in Beijing still had the same smell, but it made him feel strange and alienated.
He never wanted to remember that night in Beijing again. He didn't even want to step foot in Beijing again.
The two years in Beijing were the toughest two years for Ling Chen and Ling Shui Ruo. They were tortured by the Isloka virus every minute and every second. Their persistence and hard work didn't get them any mercy or favor from God. The dawn brought by the 13223 drug only lasted for a month before the nightmare suddenly came …
From that day onwards, he was filled with resentment towards Beijing. He hated the Long family of Beijing to the bone and the depths of his soul.
Chao Ying and Chao Xi didn't manage to book a plane ticket at the time that Ling Chen had set. They flew a private jet to the center of Bamboo Forest Wonderland, which shocked Ling Chen on the spot. Then, Chao Ying, Chao Xi, Ling Chen, and Tian Tian piloted the plane and flew thousands of miles to the sky above Beijing.
In "hell", piloting was one of the compulsory courses. Naturally, piloting all kinds of flying equipment was included. Whether it was Ling Chen, Chao Ying, or Chao Xi, they were all very good at piloting this kind of mini plane.
"Let's go and find Gui Ya and the others first."
In a very ordinary residential area, Ling Chen knocked on a door on the top floor. When the door opened, an honest-looking middle-aged man appeared. He looked at Ling Chen and Chao Xi, and his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "You're here. Come in, it's cold outside."
He entered and closed the door. After a short moment of silence, the middle-aged man suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Ling Chen. He was so excited that even his voice was trembling, "Master, it's great to see you safe and sound with my own eyes!"
The doors of each room opened, and seven figures quickly rushed out. They knelt down on one knee in the same posture and called out in unison, "Master!" They didn't say much, but their fervent gazes revealed the deep excitement in their hearts. Ever since the day Ling Chen escaped death and left Beijing, they had never seen him again in the real world or the virtual world. Although they knew that he was fine and that Chao Ying and Chao Xi were taking care of him, they were still deeply worried about him. Now that they finally saw him in perfect condition without a single wound, they were completely relieved in their excitement.
Feeling their emotions, Ling Chen's mind was in turmoil. He said softly, "Get up quickly … Brothers, it's been hard on you all this time. Are the injuries on your bodies healed? "
During that night's battle with the Long Family, everyone had suffered varying degrees of injuries, and some were even heavily injured. Even if their physiques were different from ordinary people, they would not be able to recover in a short time. After all, there were only a few freaks like Ling Chen in the world.
The middle-aged man wiped his face with his hand, and the ordinary face that had been through the vicissitudes of life instantly turned into a determined face with three horizontal scars. He quickly said, "Don't worry, Master. We're all unkillable cockroaches. We've fully recovered. At most, we have a few more scars."
The art of disguise only appeared in movies, TV shows, and novels. It almost didn't exist in real life. However, for the Reapers who were given the mission of "punishing", disguise was one of their compulsory courses. Changing one's appearance perfectly was an extremely powerful way to save one's life and create opportunities for assassination. Everyone who followed Ling Chen out of Hell had the art of disguise, which was considered to be superb in the eyes of ordinary people. As long as they had the right equipment, they could change their face into a completely different one in just a few seconds. Moreover, it would be impossible to see any traces of it with the naked eye.
This was also the biggest reason why the Long family had locked down the entire city and searched for Ling Chen, but could not find any trace of him. In modern society, the concept of "disguise" had long since faded away.
Ling Chen also wiped his face lightly and returned to his original appearance with a smile. The Reapers in the house all cried out in excitement. They rushed up together and pushed Ling Chen to the ground, venting the excitement and joy in their hearts.
This ordinary house was equipped with special soundproofing equipment, so they did not have to worry about anything. It was only when it was almost noon that the Reapers calmed down from their excitement and became quiet. They were deeply grateful to Tian Tian, who Ling Chen had brought with him, and their gazes towards her were especially gentle and respectful. This was because they knew that it was this little girl who had used her thin shoulders to carry Ling Chen out of the line of death. It was also her who had become the spiritual support for Ling Chen's recovery.
"The Long family has already stopped searching for me?" After listening to Gui Ya's report on the situation in Beijing, Ling Chen frowned.
"Mm. Since last week, all of the people searching for you have been withdrawn, and the related orders have also been stopped. It seems that they know that continuing to search for you is futile, "Gui Ya said.
"Do they think they can find master's hiding place … hmph! They should be glad that they haven't found him yet. Otherwise, they wouldn't even know how they died, "one of the Reapers behind Gui Ya said disdainfully.
Ling Chen sank into his thoughts … that night, he had left a deep impression on the Long family, and it was enough to make it so that they wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace until they got rid of him. This would force them to do anything to make him disappear from the world. Even if they couldn't find him, they wouldn't let him rest in peace. Ling Chen could not understand why the Long family had suddenly stopped searching for him.
Could it be that Long Zheng Yang had been pressured by the ten or so countries, and wanted to 'have a chat' with him?
Ling Chen's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Where did Bing Yao go?" Ling Chen asked.
"She spends most of her time with the Xiao family. A few months ago, she said that Xiao Qi would stay in the game for a long time, and that she would stay there to take care of her, including changing her nutrient fluids, bathing her, and ensuring her safety. She rarely comes back. With her there, Xiao Qiu Feng and Xiao Zhan don't have to worry. As for why Xiao Qi would stay in the game and not come out … "Gui Ya looked at Ling Chen and said," Master should know better than us. "
"In other words, Xiao Qi is still safe and sound, right?" Ling Chen asked.
"Yes," Gui Ya nodded.
"That's good." Ling Chen felt much more relaxed. Xiao Qi's fate had always been like a boulder weighing down on his heart. Qi Yue had appeared in the real world, and had told him about the 'resurrection method'. This caused him to have faith in the Vermillion Bird's words. He looked down and said in a voice that only he could hear, "Qi Qi, you must come back safely."
"Master, the Long family ruined your life. If it wasn't for that year … master would have been killed long ago. And now, they've killed Mistress Shui Ruo. This enmity is irreconcilable! Don't worry, master. When we're ready and find a suitable opportunity, we'll gather all of our strength to destroy the Long family and take revenge for master! We'll also take revenge for our brothers who died that day! We must take revenge! "
Facing Ling Chen, the shortest Reaper clenched his fists as he spoke with a ferocious look in his eyes. All of the Reapers' expressions became cold as they vigorously nodded and swore, "We must take revenge!"
Ling Chen looked at them and sighed, "Gui Ya already said that after that night, the Long family's guards have increased by at least 3 times. And this is only on the surface. There must be even more powerful guards in the shadows. Even if we all gather together, we won't be able to shake the Long family's foundations. I was too impulsive that day, and I implicated my brothers … I promise everyone that no matter how much I hate the Long family, I won't be so impulsive a second time. Everyone, please don't be impulsive. "
They blamed Shui Ruo's death on the Long family. After all, when she had died, the Long family's Steel Dragon Army had attacked. That was the only reason they could think of. As such, Ling Chen's hatred towards the Long family was magnified by many times … he hated them to the point where he didn't know how to take revenge. After settling down in the Bamboo Forest Wonderland with Tian Tian, Ling Chen spent the rest of his time looking for a way to revive Shui Ruo. He never mentioned taking revenge on the Long family again, nor did he try to do so … because he was afraid that if he tried to do so, he would go crazy to the point where he would lose control of himself.
Ling Chen stood up, and his heavy expression turned into a smile, "Let's not talk about these unhappy things. We brothers haven't gathered for a long time, so I'll personally cook today. Gui Ya, let me borrow the kitchen! "
"Wow! Master is personally cooking?! Oh my god, I'm not dreaming, am I? "One of the Reapers was drooling all over the floor.
"Ever since master met lil sis Shui Ruo, he gave all of his love to her. I've never tasted master's cooking again. It's a taste that I've always dreamed of, wuuu … I'm so excited that I can't control myself."
"Happiness came too suddenly … Holy shit! What are we still standing for? Go and buy some groceries! This is a rare opportunity, buy as much as you can!! "
"Ah, right, right!!"
The Reapers immediately dispersed and ran out to buy groceries. Seeing them, Ling Chen laughed as he walked into the kitchen. Tian Tian also hurriedly ran in, "I'll help too."
Only Gui Ya, Chao Ying and Chao Xi were left in the living room. Gui Ya stared at the kitchen for a while, and said softly, "I haven't been able to contact master for a while, and I've never dared to contact him directly. I've always been afraid that he would be unable to recover. Only today did I realise that my worries were unnecessary. Looks like that little girl called Tian Tian … and you two, are enough to replace the position of Shui Ruo in his heart. "
"Of course not." Chao Ying and Chao Xi both shook their heads, and the girl on the left smiled, "Actually, it's master who got over it. His mood is sometimes very heavy, but most of the time he's very relaxed. Moreover, this sort of relaxed mood isn't fake, but real. Master is much stronger than we thought. "
In actuality, they didn't know that the change in Ling Chen's attitude was completely due to the 'resurrection method' that Qi Yue had told him. As such, he began to believe that Shui Ruo was only temporarily asleep, and that she wasn't gone forever. One day, he would wake up Shui Ruo and let her return to his side. Because of this, the pain in his heart dissipated a lot.
"Yes, master is really amazing." Gui Ya said happily. Then, he looked around and lowered his voice even more, whispering to Chao Ying and Chao Xi mysteriously, "Look at the two of you, your eyes are full of love. Could it be that you and master … hehehehe …"
Chao Ying and Chao Xi looked at each other and smiled. The peerless elegance of the two beautiful women made Gui Ya's world seem a lot brighter. His mouth was wide open, and he said absentmindedly, "Could it be … really … master really got over it …"
He suddenly took a quick step forward and said in an agitated and urgent voice, "If Master really accepts all of you again, then … then there's no reason for him not to accept my little sister, Yao Ying. Oh, that's right, and her good sister, Qian Mo … and Bing Yao … and … I mean, in any case, if it's possible … you … you have to help Yao Ying and the others. They've been waiting for so many years … "
