Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 523: The Mysterious Black Fog
This time, Great Chu and Xizhou have sent a total of about ten thousand jin of Heavenly Stones, which must be smelted as quickly as possible in the Underworld Market.
Only then can we sell those high-priced Heavenly Weapons to the competitors before the second round of the Competition Among Ten Countries begins.
"In that case, I will leave this matter to you. Tomorrow, take the mercenaries and transport ten thousand Heavenly Stones up the mountain. Absolutely no mistakes are allowed. I will go to the Soldier Inn tomorrow to investigate the Black Fog with leaders from other countries. Hopefully, with the help of the Ten Countries Leader, we can resolve the Black Fog issue sooner. Only then can the regular transportation in the Underworld Market return to normal."
Changsun Rou pondered.
Early the next morning, Dugu Wu and Mr. Nan Chen went to the Soldier Inn. Not long after Dugu Wu left, Feng Bailing also disguised herself as Feng San and arrived at the city gate.
She secretly registered herself because she did not trust Feng Luochen and his group.
Coincidentally, she was also planning to go to Wei Mountain to check on the forging of the Heavenly Stones. Wei Mountain was very tall, and she could see the state of the jungle from there; she could take advantage of the geographical location to help Dugu Wu and Mr. Nan Chen.
After all, she carried the Wooden Holy Seal, allowing her to understand the situation in the jungle more quickly.
But there was something else Feng Bailing did not expect.
Shortly after leaving the inn, Dugu Xiaojin also secretly trailed behind White Wolf.
White Wolf leaped from the inn and headed towards the city gate.
At the city gate, Elder Liu was overseeing the transport of several dozen vehicles loaded with Heavenly Stones.
D-level and E-level mercenaries who had registered to transport the goods had also arrived at the city gate, and Feng Bailing instantly recognized Feng Luochen, Dongfang Yong, and Hong Xuan among them.
"It’s you, Feng San!"
Dongfang Yong didn’t expect to see Feng San here. It had been quite some time since he last saw Feng San; according to Zhang Dafa and Zhang Erfa, the brothers, Feng San was often not in Chu City, with elusive whereabouts. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"You’re also here to participate in the transport mission."
Feng Bailing said with a smile.
The expressions of Dongfang Yong and his companions were somewhat displeased because of Feng San, they were forced to sell themselves to the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce.
This woman was just too cunning; none of them liked her very much.
Therefore, they ignored Feng Bailing. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Elder Liu spoke out loud.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the hour is about right, and everyone is here. Two people will escort one carriage each, and we will set off to Wei Mountain together. Your task is very simple; as long as you transport the Heavenly Stones safely from here to the Forging Workshop halfway up Wei Mountain, the mission will be considered complete. The Soldier Inn and Underworld Market will then pay you the corresponding reward."
After hearing this, the mercenaries formed their teams and set off from Qinghe City.
Since it was two people escorting one carriage, Dongfang Yong and Feng Bailing happened to be allocated the same carriage.
Feng Luochen and Hong Xuan were assigned to another carriage; Dongfang Yong had an unpleasant face and stayed silent all the way.
Feng Bailing didn’t say much either. After leaving Qinghe City, the mercenaries discovered that the originally clear sky had turned gloomy.
After traveling about five or six li, Feng Bailing furrowed her brow.
She looked up and saw that between the mountain and the jungle in the distance, with Wei Mountain as the boundary, there was a faint movement of fog.
The mercenaries in the group began discussing; most of them were old mercenaries from Qinghe City and had also heard about the Black Fog. However, they initially heard that the Black Fog was only lurking in the jungle; they did not expect it to spread so quickly.
The Black Fog looked set to spread to the Wei Mountain area soon.
Seeing this, Elder Liu was not flustered at all.
"Don’t worry, everyone. The Black Fog won’t spread that fast. As long as we quicken our pace, we can return before nightfall."
Upon hearing this, the mercenaries stopped discussing and continued to hurry along with the carriages, while Elder Liu sat in a horse carriage, directing everyone on their way.
"What exactly is the situation with that Black Fog? I heard that today’s Ten Countries Leader will send people to explore the Black Fog."
Feng Luochen and Hong Xuan were escorting the vehicle, discussing in hushed tones while on the move.
"It’s said that they used Wen Energy to explore the Black Fog, which is quite peculiar. Just now, I overheard a few old mercenaries saying that if one is not careful enough to inhale the Black Fog, they will be poisoned, losing clarity of mind. Those who went missing previously due to the Black Fog all perished in this manner."
Hong Xuan muttered softly.
Their voices drifted to the ears of Feng Bailing and Dongfang Yong.
Dongfang Yong furrowed his brow.
"That Dugu Wu, he really has a death wish."
Dongfang Yong grumbled inwardly.
On the way here, he also heard that Dugu Wu had a conflict with the sisters Wu Zhenzhen, and seemed to have been injured. To still want to show off by exploring the Black Fog under such conditions, it’s simply courting death.
However, Feng Bailing was looking in the direction of the Black Fog, feeling somewhat irritable for some reason.
At this hour, Dugu Wu’s side should have already begun.
In the Soldier Inn, Dugu Wu and a few other leaders had already arrived.
What surprised Dugu Wu was that this time not only did Dongfang Yu come, but he also brought Hua Wushang.
"Prince Wu."
Hua Wushang gave Dugu Wu a slight nod.
Although Hua Wushang accompanied Dongfang Yu on the trip, he kept a low profile, and Dugu Wu hardly ever saw him.
Dongfang Yu then said.
"Prince Wu, if you’re feeling unwell, there’s no need to force yourself. Wushang also has considerable strength in the aspect of Wen Energy."
The implication was that if Dugu Wu was not up to it, Hua Wushang could replace him.
This Black Fog exploration was rather important to Dongfang Yu, especially since three countries had sent representatives to explore. If Great Chu failed to come up with anything substantial, they would likely lose face.
Dugu Wu was injured, and Dongfang Yu wasn’t very confident in him.
Dugu Wu snorted coldly, not bothering with Dongfang Yu.
However, Hua Wushang caught Dugu Wu’s attention for a few more glances.
The man in front of him was gentle and refined, seeming almost too frail to withstand the wind. His handsome features were almost excessive, with no Wenhua Seal on his smooth forehead, leaving Dugu Wu curious about the extent of his cultivation.
Yue Shan and Changsun Rou also walked in.
Yue Shan cupped his hands towards the crowd.
"Gentlemen, there has been a change in the situation. No matter what, please give it your all today. Just moments ago, a westerly wind began to blow outside the city."
All the leaders present were shocked; Qinghe City’s windy season had come early.
Dugu Wu’s brows were even more tightly knitted, for Feng Bailing had mentioned that this morning, Feng Luochen, Dongfang Yong, and others were to escort the Heavenly Stones from the Underworld Market to Wei Mountain.
With the wind starting up, that Wei Mountain...
"There’s no time to lose, thank you all."
With that, Princess Changle, Mr. Nan Chen, and Dugu Wu each took their seats.
Using Wen Energy to explore the Black Fog was relatively simpler than going in person; all that was needed was for the three of them to focus and activate the Wenhua Seal, releasing Wen Energy.
The Wen Energy would follow the will of the three individuals to explore tens of miles away in the forest. As for how far they can explore and who would make the first discovery, that would depend on their Cultivation of Wen Energy.
