Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

Chapter 2844: Chapter 2844: Meeting With Dian Family First

”I just asked the flight attendant to bring out our lunch.” Yu Qi mentioned, looking over at him.

”Mhm...” Long Hui nodded with a soft hum.

Moments later, the hot meals arrived. The flight attendant carefully arranged the freshly prepared dishes onto their respective tray tables one by one.

Yu Qi’s eyes lit up, and a sweet smile spread across her face when she noticed that every single dish served was one of her absolute favourites.

”You really know me inside out, don’t you? Thank you for arranging all my favourites beforehand.” Yu Qi said, turning to Long Hui with warm, affectionate eyes.

”Of course I do. You are my beloved wife, after all.” Long Hui responded smoothly, his eyes filled with endless devotion.

With that, the two of them picked up their utensils and began enjoying their lunch.

They ate at a leisurely pace, chatting happily about lighthearted, everyday matters. Their conversation flowed completely naturally, warm and relaxed, looking just like any ordinary, deeply in love couple enjoying a quiet meal together mid-flight.

However, neither of them dared to bring up a single topic regarding the cultivation world while airborne. Even though the rest of the crew members were not standing directly beside them, it was always far wiser to exercise extreme caution when dealing with secret affairs.

They had no way of knowing if anyone on board possessed supernatural hearing or could somehow comprehend the true nature of their hidden lives.

Therefore, both Yu Qi and Long Hui tacitly maintained complete silence on anything related to cultivators or secret sects.

For the time being, they simply savoured their delicious meal and enjoyed each other’s peaceful company, waiting patiently for their private jet to touch down in Fanghai Nation.

...

The private jet landed smoothly in Fanghai Nation. After completing the routine airport check-out procedures, the couple walked out of the terminal together. Great-Grandpa Dian had already informed Yu Qi earlier that he would dispatch someone to pick them up, so as soon as they stepped outside into the cool air, they began scanning the waiting crowd.

Yu Qi spotted their ride almost instantly, as the person Great-Grandpa Dian had chosen to send was none other than Dian Zin Fang. Seeing him standing near a sleek vehicle, Yu Qi and Long Hui immediately made their way over.

”Get in.” Dian Zin Fang said, opening the door for them.

Yu Qi nodded appreciatively, and both she and Long Hui climbed into the back seat.

”Did Great-Grandpa fill you in on the whole situation?” Yu Qi asked as the car pulled away from the curb.

”Yes, he did. The team members have already been selected, and I am one of them.” Dian Zin Fang replied from the front.

”That’s great. Who else is coming along?” Yu Qi inquired curiously.

”Shu Xian, Ren Qi, Chi Ne, Wan Ye, A Yue, Sang Mu, Cang Ye, Uncle Henry...” Dian Zin Fang began listing the names, but before he could finish his sentence, Yu Qi suddenly cut him off in surprise.

”Wait a second. Isn’t Uncle Henry Great-Grandpa’s personal bodyguard?” Yu Qi asked, her brows knitting together.

”Yes, he is.” Dian Zin Fang nodded resignedly.

”Don’t tell me... Is it exactly what I am thinking?” Yu Qi asked, staring at him in sheer disbelief.

”I am afraid so.” Dian Zin Fang let out a heavy sigh.

”Great-Grandpa is actually planning to come with us?!” Yu Qi exclaimed.

”Yeah. None of us could stop him. He signed himself up on the spot.” Dian Zin Fang sighed once again, sounding thoroughly helpless.

Yu Qi fell completely silent for a few moments. She could vividly picture the scene in her mind. Truth be told, even if she had been present at the time, she likely would not have been able to dissuade the stubborn old patriarch either. Great-Grandpa Dian was notoriously set in his ways whenever he set his mind on doing something. She could not help but let out a soft sigh of her own.

”Brother Zin Fang, I completely understand.” Yu Qi said, shaking her head wryly.

”I am just glad you understand our plight.” Dian Zin Fang nodded with a weary smile.

”You don’t need to worry too much about Great-Grandpa. That old man is as tough as nails.” Long Hui chimed in reassuringly.

Long Hui knew firsthand just how formidable Great-Grandpa Dian truly was, given that the old man dragged him off to the training grounds for intense sparring sessions every single time they visited the estate.

While Great-Grandpa Dian might appear like a harmless, ordinary elderly man on the surface most of the time, his martial foundation and raw strength were anything but ordinary. Long Hui had personally experienced his overwhelming power on numerous occasions during their clashes. He was undeniably a powerhouse.

The car navigated the winding roads and finally arrived at the grand Dian Residence nestled atop the mountain. By the time they stepped inside, the entire selected team had already assembled in the main living room, eagerly awaiting their arrival. Without wasting a single moment on pleasantries, they immediately convened to discuss the upcoming operation.

Yu Qi stepped forward and laid out the situation clearly for everyone present. Their target destination was Manhe Island. According to the intelligence she had painstakingly gathered through her private network, Manhe Island served as a major operational nest for a faction of evil cultivators.

Even more horrifyingly, these evil cultivators were actively purchasing human beings as living resources to sustain and advance their dark cultivation techniques.

A heavy, stern silence settled over the room, and everyone’s expression turned grim upon hearing this revelation.

”So that is the full picture. Our primary mission is to capture these evil cultivators alive if possible.” Yu Qi stated.
