Since Zhongzhou was far from the coastal cities, Ye Feng could only travel by car or plane.
In fact, he didn't have to take a car or plane. After all, the speed of a Grandmaster at full speed was not much slower than a plane or high-speed train.
However, if he did that, his Sea God power would likely be depleted before he even arrived.
At that point, let alone competing for the exotic treasure, it would be good enough to keep his life and not be killed.
Therefore, Ye Feng took Xiao Hei Long and went directly to the airport. Xiao Hei Long transformed into a small snake and burrowed into Ye Feng's sleeve, and the two boarded the plane.
The reason for doing this was to save money on one ticket.
Although many cultivation forces had emerged, modern transportation had not been eliminated. After all, spiritual energy had not yet recovered, and modern transportation was still the mainstream.
Upon arriving at the airport, Ye Feng noticed the presence of many cultivators around, some strong and some weak.
The strong ones had reached the late Grandmaster stage, while the weak ones were only at the Xiantian realm.
It was clear that these people's destinations were likely the same as his, heading straight for that pillar of light.
As soon as Ye Feng sat down after entering the cabin, he suddenly saw a woman dressed in ancient attire with an extremely cold aura walking towards him.
The woman was also wearing a veil, so Ye Feng couldn't see her face clearly. However, even without seeing her face, he could still feel that she was a beauty.
The woman walked up to him, then looked at the ticket in her hand with a confused expression, seemingly unable to understand it.
Seeing this, Ye Feng spoke, "Hello, do you need help?"
The woman heard him and replied, "Um, hello! Excuse me, which seat is mine?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng took the ticket from her hand, looked at it carefully, and said, "It's the seat next to me!"
"Okay! Thank you!" the woman said as she sat down.
However, as soon as she sat down, Ye Feng felt as if he were sitting in a refrigerator.
Ye Feng observed carefully and felt that this woman's cultivation should have reached the Grandmaster realm. A cold aura emanated from her entire body, which did not seem to be deliberately released but naturally emitted.
Fortunately, Ye Feng's cultivation was not low, so this level of cold air had no effect on him. If it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't be able to stay for more than a few minutes.
"It seems she's someone who has just emerged!" Ye Feng thought to himself.
After sitting down, the woman closed her eyes to rest, not saying another word.
Seeing this, Ye Feng spoke, "Hello, may I ask your name?"
The woman heard him, sized up Ye Feng, and said faintly, "Luo Ningshuang!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh, truly living up to her name. She was cold, and her name was also cold.
"Hello, my name is Ye Feng!" Ye Feng said with a smile.
The woman nodded upon hearing this, offering only a polite smile.
Seeing this, Ye Feng didn't know what else to say, so he sat there quietly and began to meditate with his eyes closed.
Just then, another person came to their side.
It was a young man, also dressed in ancient attire, with a large saber on his back.
He looked at his ticket, then sat down next to Ye Feng and Luo Ningshuang, and then said with a hearty laugh, "Hello everyone! My name is Wang Man!"
Luo Ningshuang opened her eyes and glanced at him, but said nothing.
Only Ye Feng smiled at him and said, "Hello! My name is Ye Feng! Her name is Luo Ningshuang!"
"Heh heh, you two don't look like ordinary people. Are you also going to compete for the exotic treasure?" Wang Man asked with a smile.
Ye Feng nodded and said, "That's right, but I just want to see the world and join in the fun!"
"Heh heh, want to team up? I'm very strong!" Wang Man said without concealment.
He even deliberately released his aura. Ye Feng and Luo Ningshuang were both surprised.
Mid-stage Grandmaster!
Ye Feng and Luo Ningshuang both looked at Wang Man deeply.
Wang Man looked noticeably younger than Ye Feng and Luo Ningshuang, but his cultivation had already reached the mid-stage Grandmaster realm.
"It seems he's a genius from some major power!" Ye Feng thought to himself.
Moreover, Ye Feng felt that Wang Man was quite simple-minded and probably not a bad person. Teaming up with him would definitely be profitable!
Therefore, Ye Feng said, "Of course!"
Hearing Ye Feng agree, Wang Man laughed and said, "Haha, great! By the way, beautiful lady, what about you?"
Luo Ningshuang said nothing upon hearing this.
Seeing this, Wang Man immediately said, "Brother Ye, why is your wife so cold and not speaking?"
Pfft!!!
Ye Feng almost spat out his drink. How did she become his wife?
"She, she's not..." Ye Feng was about to say that she wasn't his wife.
Luo Ningshuang glared at Wang Man with her icy eyes.
However, Wang Man said dismissively, "Never mind, if she doesn't speak, consider it her agreement. You've already agreed anyway!"
Ye Feng was speechless.
As for Luo Ningshuang, her expression and gaze were now extremely cold, as if she were about to erupt at any moment.
Seeing this, Ye Feng quickly comforted her, "Calm down, calm down!"
If they started fighting on the plane, wouldn't the plane be torn apart?
How would they be able to compete for the exotic treasure then?
However, Ye Feng's action was seen as henpecked by Wang Man.
Just as he was about to say something, Ye Feng quickly said, "Brother, say less, say less!"
Hearing this, Wang Man nodded and said, "Alright!"
Seeing that Wang Man had stopped talking, Ye Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And Luo Ningshuang, under Ye Feng's comfort, did not erupt.
As more and more passengers entered the cabin, it soon became full.
Ye Feng felt that a quarter of the cabin was occupied by cultivators, with no less than ten of them at the Grandmaster realm or above.
However, Ye Feng did not see any experts at the Grandmaster realm.
Perhaps it wasn't that there were none, but that they had used some secret technique to conceal their cultivation aura.
Just like Luo Ningshuang and Wang Man next to Ye Feng. Wang Man had already demonstrated his power, and although Luo Ningshuang hadn't, based on the constant cold aura emanating from her, Ye Feng knew she was definitely a Grandmaster realm expert.
Moreover, both of them were not very old, so they were likely geniuses from their respective regions.
Soon, the plane started. With a roar of the engines, the plane rapidly ascended, heading towards Ye Feng's destination.
For the entire three hours, Luo Ningshuang did not speak.
Wang Man, on the other hand, was a typical chatterbox and kept talking to Ye Feng.
Luo Ningshuang, sitting between Ye Feng and Wang Man, was almost driven mad by the two of them.
After enduring three hours, the three finally reached their destination.
As soon as Luo Ningshuang got off the plane, without a word, she directly shook off Ye Feng and the other, flying towards the distance.
"Hey, Brother Ye, your wife ran away! Aren't you going to chase her?" Wang Man said urgently upon seeing this.
Luo Ningshuang, who was halfway through her flight, heard this and stumbled, almost falling from mid-air.
She looked back at Wang Man, her gaze almost capable of killing someone.
Only after Luo Ningshuang left did Ye Feng explain, "Brother, she's not my wife!"
"What? Not your wife? Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier!" Wang Man exclaimed in shock.
Ye Feng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You didn't give me a chance to say so!"
"Uh, alright! No wonder that little lady was looking at me strangely just now!" Wang Man muttered to himself.
Seeing this, Ye Feng smiled and said, "Alright! Enough talk, let's hurry to where the exotic treasure appeared!"
Wang Man nodded, and then the two of them sped off towards the distant pillar of light...
