An Lin and his team traversed the mountain on foot. The most pressing matter at this moment was to reach the location they had agreed to meet at.
In truth, the location they should have been teleported to was Baiyun Temple, which was located in the suburbs of Rong City.
However, even an idiot could tell that their landing location had deviated from the target. Casting their eyes into the distance, there was no temple in sight.
Mountains surrounded them, and apart from the looming forests, there was nothing else!
Right now, they had no idea where they were.
After trekking for around an hour, An Lin finally saw a road.
His eyes lit up in joy. If there was a road, then they could determine their location by simply asking some random driver who passed by.
Moreover, they wouldn’t need to walk anymore and could take a car directly to Baiyun Temple.
“Hmm? A human has been trapped… It’s a monster!”
Xuanyuan Cheng’s expression became serious. His figure became a blur as he rushed forwards.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were also startled, and they had a bad premonition.
Boom!
A car which had been speeding down the road was ground to a halt by Xuanyuan Cheng’s bare hands, and the entire bonnet was crushed by his hands!
Immediately afterward, the dreadful sound of metal ripping could be heard.
Rip!
With his bare hands, Xuanyuan Cheng tore the car into two. He then ripped out the ‘tentacle’ which was binding the human, grabbing him out and quickly dashing to the side!
Boom!
The car exploded…
…
Xuanyuan Cheng carried the male and a warm smile appeared on his face. “That was such a close call! Are you alright?”
The male’s eyes bulged. His face was deathly pale and his lips quivered. “Ghost… Alien… Ahhh…!”
Xuanyuan Cheng sighed and shook his head softly. He could understand what the male was going through.
It was clear that this male had received quite a fright from the monster!
Watching this scene from the side of the road, both An Lin and Xu Xiaolan’s mouths widened into an ‘O’ shape.
Xu Xiaolan had been very diligent when studying mortal studies, so she knew that the thing speeding down the road was not a monster but a car!
As for An Lin, he had never seen a monster being torn apart barehanded before…
Now, however, Big Brother Cheng had allowed him to witness a f*cking car being torn apart barehanded!
Holy f*ck! Tearing apart a car barehanded! How could he not be shocked?!
A short while later, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan finally came to their senses.
“Big Brother Cheng…” An Lin walked over and reminded earnestly, “The thing speeding down the road just then was a car, not a monster!”
Hearing An Lin’s words, Xuanyuan Cheng fell into deep thought.
“Oh… I remember now. It’s a type of man-made machine, huh. No wonder I couldn’t feel any life force coming from it!”
Xuanyuan Cheng’s eyes lit up as if he had recalled something.
Immediately afterward, he looked apologetically at the slightly plump male in his arms. “I’m so sorry, I acted too rashly and accidentally tore your car apart. I’ll compensate you with a new one!” he promised.
The male was already ashen-faced with fright. Hearing Xuanyuan Cheng’s words at this moment, he shook his head frantically. “N-no need to compensate me! I only ask for you to release me! My flesh is too greasy and it doesn’t taste good… Every day I eat food injected with hormones while breathing in smog. My flesh is toxic!”
Xuanyuan Cheng: “…”
An Lin: “…”
Xu Xiaolan: “…”
So, it turns out that this man mistook them for flesh-eating monsters?
An Lin sighed. He walked before the male and cast a memory-erasing spell.
This was an immortal spell that every cultivator had to learn before descending into the mortal realm. The aim of such was to prevent situations like the one just now from happening…
After the male’s memory was erased, he fell unconscious.
Xuanyuan Cheng laid him down on the floor and cooperatively cast a healing and awakening spell on him!
The male awoke gradually. Seeing the three strangers standing before him, his expression involuntarily changed. “Where is this… Why am I here?”
The male felt a bit dizzy.
He racked his brain yet could only remember up to when he was driving. How come he was suddenly laying on the floor?
At this moment, an attractive looking youth started speaking with a smile on his face. “Uncle, you were already laying here when we came. We passed through here by chance and were quite worried about seeing you laying by the side of the road. So, we stopped to look after you.
“Also, is that your car over there?”
Saying this, he pointed his finger toward the road.
The male looked toward the road and saw the smoking shell of a car as well as a scorched license plate. “Holy f*ck! My car exploded?!”
“Yeah, that’s so weird! You don’t seem to have any injuries either. What on earth happened?” An Lin looked at the male and wondered aloud curiously.
Xuanyuan Cheng and Xu Xiaolan also looked toward the male with an expression of curiosity. It was as if they had witnessed some unfathomable thing.
One had to admit, their acting skills were very good…
The male was baffled as he looked toward them and he found that they were all looking at him inquisitively.
Eventually, he pulled his phone out with trembling hands and took a picture of the car. Then, he called the police…
…
Thanks to the male, An Lin and the others were also able to hitch a free ride in the police car.
An Lin described him and his friends as warm-hearted youths who had got off a bus halfway through their trip in order to help the male.
Hearing this, the male was extremely moved.
Afterward, the two of them started conversing cheerfully.
Toward the male’s gratitude, Xuanyuan Cheng—the car-tearing culprit—flushed red in embarrassment.
“An Lin, let’s try to compensate this uncle in the future,” Xuanyuan Cheng whispered in An Lin’s ear.
“Don’t worry, the state department concerned will help clean up our mess. We just need to find our contact and hand this matter over to them,” An Lin chuckled.
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and the feeling of guilt in his mind subsided a little.
The male was called Zheng Hongbang and coincidentally, was a resident of Rong City.
The location of the incident wasn’t far from Rong City and was just over fifty kilometers away.
An Lin was in no mood to go to the police station and record statements. So, once again, he cast a memory-erasing spell on all the people in the car.
After the people in the car all fell unconscious, he, along with Xuanyuan Cheng and Xu Xiaolan, all got off.
Rong City, or Chengdu, was the biggest city in the southwest and was hailed as the heavenly province.
An Lin’s hometown was in Chongqing, which was not far from Chengdu.
When he was free, he would often come over to Chengdu. As a result, he was fairly familiar with this place. Thus, once he got out of the car, he started showing Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng around.
There was a forest of skyscrapers in Chengdu, and when they arrived at Chunxi Road, they found that it was even more lively and bustling.
There were all types of stores on this road and there were also countless mouth-watering delicacies. It was bustling with activity and appeared extremely prosperous.
This was the first time that Xu Xiaolan and Xuanyuan Cheng had descended into the mortal realm, thus, their eyes were wide with astonishment and curiosity as they looked around at the various strange and exotic goods.
Fortunately, they both came from famous sects and large clans, so even though they marveled at these new and interesting things, they didn’t react in an exaggerated or ridiculous manner.
At least, situations like the one where Xuanyuan Cheng tore apart a car barehanded would not happen again…
“That’s right, An Lin. Don’t we need to go to Baiyun Temple to meet our contact first?”
After strolling around for a long time, Xu Xiaolan finally realized that they still hadn’t gone to meet up with their contact yet…
Hearing her question, An Lin chuckled and shook his head. “Before coming here, our homeroom teacher already told us that Baiyun Temple is a very carefully hidden Daoist Temple. Ordinary people don’t know of this Daoist Temple’s existence. As our landing location was incorrect, we also don’t know of the precise location of Baiyun Temple.”
“That being the case, rather than having us go look for them, it would probably be better to have them come looking for us!” An Lin continued.
Xuanyuan Cheng nodded in agreement. “M-hm, this is indeed a good idea. We just need to create some supernatural phenomena. Presumably, some observation department will take notice of it and send people over to investigate. It’s indeed an easy and effortless method.”
“Exactly! Let’s do that tonight. We’ll continue enjoying ourselves during the day!” An Lin grinned.
