"With Instructor Fang here, getting first place will definitely be no problem!"Long Shisan said with a smile.
Fang Bai was not humble, nodding and saying, "Thatâs right, the reason Iâm bringing you all to America this time is to aim for first place! Whoever tries to compete with us for first place, weâll beat them up good!" TĘe sourcá´ of thÉŞs content ÉŞs Nová´lFirá´(.)ná´t
Fang Baiâs words caused a burst of laughter among Long Shisan and the others.
However, Dragon Maiden spoke seriously, "Although we should not underestimate ourselves, we also cannot be arrogant... As far as I know, some of our opponents this time have sent even stronger teams than in previous years. Itâs clear that everyone is determined to win first place!"
Long Wu clicked his tongue and said, "The organizers are really generous this time, usually the prize money is five hundred million US dollars, but this edition theyâve increased it to one billion US dollars, which is quite tempting!"
"If youâre tempted, then strive for it!"
Fang Bai said loudly, "Once we get first place, the one billion US dollars will be split evenly, what do you guys think?"
Before Long Wu and the others could respond, Dragon Maiden already spoke sternly, "Instructor Fang, âDragon Guardâ has a rule, any prize money must be turned in and confiscated!"
Fang Bai pursed his lips, dismissively saying, "Turned in and confiscated? Isnât that a bit too harsh? Whoâs the miser that made this rule? This is simply demotivating everyoneâs drive and hard work!"
Long Wu and the others secretly laughed, but no one dared to join in with Fang Baiâs complaints, because this rule was set by the âDragon Guardâ leader, Long Jingtianâwho would dare to disagree?
Dragon Maiden heard Fang Bai actually calling her own grandfather a âmiserâ and rolled her eyes, saying in annoyance, "It was my grandfather who made that rule. If you have a problem with it, go talk to him!"
Fang Bai laughed and said, "Alright, Iâll talk to him later! Confiscating the entire one billion US dollars... thatâs a little unsightly. If you ask me, we should at least keep a few hundred million for everyoneâs expenses!"
Long Wu, Long Shisan, and the others looked up to Fang Bai admiringly, thinking that in the entire âDragon Guardâ, probably only Instructor Fang had the guts to reason with Long Jingtian.
Although Fang Baiâs ability and status were comparable to Long Jingtianâs, he was not as stern and rigid. He and the ten âDragon Guardâ members on the airplane cabin laughed and joked, blending in as one of them, without the slightest air of superiority.
The ten âDragon Guardâ members were very relaxed in front of Fang Bai, completely lacking the tension and restraint they felt in the presence of Long Jingtian.
The airplane flew steadily at an altitude of ten thousand meters above the ocean. When midnight came, all the âDragon Guardâ members, including Fang Bai, stopped talking, sat cross-legged, closed their eyes, and entered the Cultivation State.
Suddenly, a series of soft "beeps" disturbed Fang Bai. The sound was very faint, and if it werenât for Fang Baiâs extremely sharp senses, far beyond that of an ordinary Martial Artist, he would not have detected it.
Fang Bai abruptly opened his eyes, a sharp light flickering in them, and his eyebrows furrowed tightly. His natural instinct allowed him to sense an unusual crisis from those soft sounds.
"Dragon Maiden, how many captains are there in the cockpit?"
Fang Bai turned his head, asking Dragon Maiden in a low voice.
Dragon Maiden came out of her Cultivation State, opened her eyes, and looked at Fang Bai with some confusion. Although she did not understand what he meant by his question, she still answered, "There are three captains in total, one main and two co-pilots... Why?"
"Among the two co-pilots, is there a woman?"
Fang Bai asked again.
Dragon Maiden nodded and said, "Yes! The womanâs name is Huo Hongyan, sheâs thirty-five years old, very beautiful, and currently single..."
As she said this, she gave Fang Bai a strange look, thinking to herself that perhaps Instructor Fang had a thing for uniforms or liked mature women. Otherwise, why would he ask this?
"Huo Hongyan..."
Fang Bai muttered, his eyelids suddenly twitching rapidly.
"Instructor Fang, whatâs wrong?"
Seeing Fang Baiâs change in expression, Dragon Maiden asked in surprise.
"Huo Hongyan... fiery red face... Wrathful Beauties..."
Fang Bai looked at Dragon Maiden, as if muttering to himself, yet also as if speaking to her.
When he uttered the words "Wrathful Beauties," Dragon Maidenâs pupils suddenly dilated, and she sprung up from her seat as if on springs.
The commotion on Dragon Maidenâs side alarmed the other Dragon Guard members. Long Da, Long Er, and others ended their cultivation and looked at her in confusion, unaware of what had happened.
"Maybe... Maybe the name is just a coincidence? There are many names with âHongyanâ in this world... Besides, weâve thoroughly investigated Huo Hongyan before..."
Dragon Maiden felt her reaction was a bit over the top and said to Fang Bai with a smile, but it was somewhat forced.
Like the other core members of the Dragon Guard, Dragon Maiden was filled with admiration and reverence for Fang Bai. His serious demeanor and recent speculation also caused Dragon Maiden to feel a strong unease; her previous words and the smile she showed were both just forms of self-comfort.
If there really were a "Wrathful Beauties" aboard the plane, it certainly wouldnât be good news, and it was easy to guess what she might do.
Fang Bai said, "The name Huo Hongyan doesnât seem to connect to âWrathful Beauties,â but... have you heard a very familiar âbeepingâ sound?"
"âBeepingâ sound?"
Dragon Maiden focused her mind and listened carefully, shaking her head, "I havenât heard it!"
Fang Bai said, "The sound is coming from the cockpit, very faint, and because your strength is not strong enough, you canât hear it..."
Suddenly, Dragon Maidenâs face turned pale as she exclaimed, "The âbeepingâ sound youâre talking about, could it be..."
"Yes! Weâre in big trouble now..."
Fang Bai said with a wry smile and nodded. "What if I told you that the beautiful co-pilot has a timed bomb on her, and it has already started the countdown, would you believe me?"
"Instructor Fang, you... youâre joking, right?"
Dragon Maidenâs face went pale in an instant, her voice trembling slightly as she spoke.
Fang Bai sighed, "Do I look like Iâm joking?"
"Iâm going to the cockpit..."
Dragon Maiden gritted her teeth and turned to hurry towards the cockpit.
The other Dragon Guard members in the cabin, all extremely clever individuals, sensed something from the conversation between Fang Bai and Dragon Maiden. Their faces turned white, expressions filled with panic as they stood up one by one.
If they were in a car, they would have many ways to escape, but on a plane, no matter how strong they were, once they encountered a crisis, there was simply no hope of escape; the only thing awaiting them was a catastrophic end.
"Dragon Maiden, wait a moment!"
Fang Bai stopped Dragon Maiden and then slowly stood up, speaking in a deep voice, "If you go, you might not even be able to open the door of the cockpit. Let me go instead!"
His figure flickered and he darted past Dragon Maiden like the wind, rushing towards the planeâs cockpit at the front.
Dragon Maiden bit her lower lip tightly, her slender waist twisting as she closely followed behind Fang Bai.
Long Da, Long Er, and the others looked at each other and followed suit.
