Chapter 2505: Finally arrived, a familiar voice~
"Sigh~"
Ling Tian slowly woke up, took a breath of cold air, and felt an indescribable pain all over his body.
The moment he opened his eyes, a figure suddenly rushed in front of him and said in surprise, "Brother, you're awake?!"
After saying this, Ling Tian looked at Lin Qi who was close by, smiled helplessly and nodded: "Yeah, he's awake."
After saying that, Ling Tian sat up and found himself lying in the back seat of the car. Du Yanhao was driving, and Lin Qi was sticking his head out from the passenger seat in a strange posture, looking at Ling Tian with curiosity.
Ling Tian rubbed his head, then looked outside. After a brief observation, he asked in confusion, "Where are we going?"
"Holy Mountain, we knew that Big Brother had fainted due to lack of energy, so we started to approach the Holy Mountain. We thought that after you woke up, we could speed up and save some time. What do you think? Big Brother, isn't our idea a good one?"
Lin Qi chuckled and spoke, looking at Ling Tian expectantly, obviously waiting for his praise.
Ling Tian reacted, nodded, and said softly: "This is a good idea. It can indeed save a lot of time. Han Bing didn't come again, right?"
"No, brother, during the time you fainted, everything around you was quiet and nothing unexpected happened, but..."
Lin Qi hesitated to speak. Ling Tian looked at him and said, "Don't be so shy. Did something happen?"
"Not really. It's just that Du Yanhao and I discovered that the distance between the Holy Mountain and us seems to have remained the same, so we're wondering if we've been trapped in an illusion again."
Hearing this, Ling Tian was stunned. He looked out the window, then looked at the surroundings, then at the distance between them and the Holy Mountain, and asked in confusion, "How long have you been driving?"
"It's been almost half a day, this..."
"That's fine." Ling Tian waved his hand. "It seems like Han Bing dragged us into this illusion a long time ago. It seems like we've been walking for a long time, but we've been going in circles. We're now in the vicinity of Jincheng, so we're quite far away from the Holy Mountain."
After hearing Ling Tian's explanation, Lin Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. "Then I'm relieved. I've been very worried, afraid that some monster would appear and kill us. If Big Brother isn't here, we're really useless."
After the words fell, Lin Qi looked at Ling Tian curiously: "Brother, how about letting Xiao Hao and I improve our realm before rushing to the Holy Mountain? Otherwise, the two of us will really be a burden and completely useless!"
"That's not necessary for now." Ling Tian waved his hand and refused: "I know you are not satisfied with your realm, but now is not the time. After everything is settled, before we leave, I will definitely give you a chance to improve your realm."
"Okay~"
Although Lin Qi was a little disappointed, he didn't dwell on it too much.
He knew that Ling Tian had his own plans, and all he could do was be obedient and do as he was asked. As for the rest, no matter how anxious he was, it would be useless.
Ling Tian glanced at Lin Qi, then looked at Du Yanhao and said, "Xiaohao, I want to ask you something. I hope you can think about it carefully during this time and give me an answer."
Hearing this, Du Yanhao nodded: "Okay, big brother, you go ahead."
"In Jincheng now, Lao Bing is gone, and Han Bing's strength is very weak. It is actually quite easy for us to occupy Jincheng now. So I want to ask you, do you want to leave with us, or stay in Jincheng?"
Ling Tian finished speaking, fearing that Du Yanhao might not understand, and quickly added: "If you want to stay in Jincheng, I will solve all your problems for you so that you can better control the city. At the same time, I will leave you with top-grade crystals to help you improve your realm and face crises."
After Ling Tian finished speaking, Du Yanhao was driving the car, thinking seriously.
Lin Qi did not continue speaking in the passenger seat, fearing that he would disrupt Du Yanhao's thoughts.
Time passed by little by little, and the car fell into silence. Du Yanhao was very serious throughout the whole process, and it was obvious that he also realized that this choice would have a significant impact on him.
After all, if Du Yanhao chooses to stay in Jincheng, he will become the master of the city and will not have to live under the management of anyone. He can do whatever he wants and do things according to his own wishes.
But if he follows Ling Tian, he is just a younger brother, and he is the younger brother ranked after Lin Qi. His presence can be said to be the lowest in this team.
Just by following Ling Tian, he could go to the central city and learn more, so Du Yanhao was very conflicted at the moment and didn't know what to choose.
As night fell, Ling Tian was about to speak and ask the others to rest for a while, but Du Yanhao spoke first, "I want to stay. Big brother, please leave Jincheng to me. I will also inherit my brother's wish. He always wanted to be the Lord of Jincheng, so... I will stay."
Ling Tian was not surprised to hear Du Yanhao's answer. He just nodded and said, "Okay, then when you come back from the Holy Mountain, we will accompany you and clear all the troubles in Jincheng for you so that you can stay in Jincheng safely."
"Thank you, brother!"
Hearing this, Ling Tian waved his hand and said, "Alright, this matter has come to a conclusion. Let's rest here tonight. It's still a long time, at least three days, before we can reach the Holy Mountain. So there's no point in being anxious. We must rest well."
"Yes!"
Several people began to prepare and then rested in the tent.
That night, Du Yanhao was standing guard outside, Lin Qi was lying in the tent to rest, and Ling Tian was sitting inside the tent reading a book in his hand.
Until midnight, Ling Tian went out to replace Du Yanhao, let him come back to rest, and let Lin Qi read.
This night was very quiet, nothing out of the ordinary happened.
The next morning, Ling Tian woke them up and set off again.
This situation repeated itself over the next three days.
Three days later, Ling Tian realized he had entered the foot of the Holy Mountain. He looked at Lin Qi, who was driving, and said, "Stop the car and find a place to hide. From now on, we're going on foot."
"Okay big brother!"
Lin Qi nodded, hid the car with Du Yanhao, took some necessities, and followed Ling Tian to the Holy Mountain.
Ling Tian and the others walked for almost half a day. When they were less than five kilometers away from the holy mountain, a familiar roar sounded in the air, causing the earth to tremble slightly.
When the voice died down, Ling Tian slowly raised his head to look at the sky, a smile on his lips as he murmured, "Here it comes!"
