The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 974 The Visible Future
A few months later.

In the northwest wilderness, countless whistles roared across the deserted Gobi Desert.

Qiu Qingqing looked at the extremely desolate background outside the car, and turned to look at Ding Peng who was standing still beside her.

Without the protection of Long Wu's power, Lin Taiping, with the support of the Shenlong Guards, carried out a major reshuffle of the security offices in various places.

This huge political turmoil lasted for several months. Even though Li Chaofeng was personally in charge, people in the Central Plains were still in panic.

The turmoil gradually subsided, but Li Chaofeng knew.
The Central Plains martial arts world needs a strong enough stimulation to prevent the world from falling into an endless power struggle.

So he brought Ding Peng and his wife, as well as various other people, to the northwest wilderness.

As the scenery outside the car became increasingly desolate, Qiu Qingqing looked at Ding Peng with a ridiculous expression and said sarcastically.

"Do they want to exile us to the wilderness?"

Ding Peng listened to Qiu Qingqing's words but did not respond. He just stared at another car in front of him.

Sitting in that car was a tough-looking middle-aged swordsman.

"Husband, can we really return to Qingzhou?"

Qiu Qingqing's voice came again, and Ding Peng also lowered his head to explain.

"Qingqing, the Dragon God is not something we can fight against, and Master died from overusing his magic, which has nothing to do with the Dragon God."

Ding Peng's words made Qiu Qingqing's face turn black, but she knew better.
The moment Ding Peng was found by Li Chaofeng, the couple no longer had the ability to compete with Li Chaofeng.

The enemy was strong and we were weak, so Li Chaofeng did not kill the couple directly. He also promised to set them free after the matter was over. They were lucky.

But Li Chaofeng brought them to the wilderness, and Qiu Qingqing couldn't help but have wild thoughts.

"This place is so desolate. If we die here, who in the world can blame him for breaking his promise?"

Qiu Qingqing's words made Ding Peng quite helpless. He looked forward again and smiled.

"It is possible that the court will break its promise, but the Dragon God will never break his promise in front of the man in the car in front of him."

Qiu Qingqing looked confused. As they walked along, the convoy was getting bigger and bigger, but Li Chaofeng didn't explain and just kept moving forward.

Sensing Qiu Qingqing's doubt, Ding Peng reached out and touched her hair, then asked with a smile.

"Among all the warriors in the world, the Dragon God is naturally the number one. No matter how strong my swordsmanship is, I can only boast of being the third."

"So who is the second best in the world?"

Qiu Qingqing continued, "My husband, are you saying that the person sitting in the car in front is the owner of Shenjian Villa, Xie Xiaofeng?"

Ding Peng nodded: "I have defeated the Sword Saint Ye Gucheng, and fought with the Sword God Ximen Chuixue."

"The two of them have their own unique swordsmanship, and they are equally matched with mine."

"As for the man in the car in front, I only felt him slightly and I realized that his sword intention surpassed that of the Sword God Ximen Chuxue."

"There is only one person in the world who has this kind of sword intent."

"Excalibur, Xie Xiaofeng."

As he was speaking, all the vehicles had stopped in front of a small hill. The driver looked at Ding Peng calmly and said.

"We have arrived at our destination. You two can get off now."

Ding Peng nodded slightly, turned around and took Qiu Qingqing's arm and got out of the car.

As he glanced over, Ding Peng's heart moved slightly, because it was not only Xie Xiaofeng who got off the car at the same time as him.

Wudang Taoist priest, Shaolin monk, and Emei master.
All the well-known and countless authoritative figures in the world are here.

What exactly does Li Chaofeng want to do by gathering so many powerful people in the underworld?
Just as everyone was puzzled, a short and fat old man jumped out from the hillside.

When the short and fat old man appeared, the people around him began to whisper.

Ding Peng heard clearly that this person was the leader of Luban Divine Axe Sect, Zhu Ting.

As soon as Zhu Ting appeared, he looked at Li Chaofeng, who was at the front of the crowd, with disdain and cursed.

"Li Chaofeng, why did you bring so many people here without caring about anything? Are you here to make fun of me?" Li Chaofeng laughed: "We came here just to let them watch the rocket launch process."

"After watching, they all went back."

Hearing this question, Zhu Ting's expression became even more disgusted, and he spoke angrily.

"How many times have rocket launches failed? How much manpower has been wasted? Others may not know this, but are you not aware of it?"

"Do you want me to embarrass myself in front of all the people in the martial arts world?"

Li Chaofeng smiled and nodded: "Failure is the mother of success. I believe that this launch will be successful."

Zhu Ting was choked by Li Chaofeng's words. Finally, he waved his hand and no longer cared what Li Chaofeng wanted to do.
Although Zhu Ting had always been focused on mechanical research and development except for asking for funds and did not care about what major events were happening outside, he had heard about the turmoil in Anqing Prefecture.

The incident involving Long Wu had such a huge impact that Li Chaofeng now needed a miracle to stabilize people's hearts.

And allowing a giant steel object several meters long to enter the void is this miracle.

Li Chaofeng felt a little uncomfortable as he watched Zhu Ting disappear on the hillside.

Airplanes have been invented for a long time, but they can only carry a little supplies into the sky and cannot form a strategic deterrent against the lawless world.

For a martial arts master who can take several steps, a cannonball falling from the sky is a huge blow.
Not even as threatening as a bullet.

The bullet can hit the face, and the time it takes for the shell to hit the ground is enough for a top-notch master to escape several miles away.

So, we can only use rockets.

It is not the rockets that can hurt the masters;
To the people in the world, rockets are more magical and greater than airplanes.

Just as Li Chaofeng was thinking about how to intimidate the leaders of the major forces behind him in case of a launch failure, Xie Xiaofeng slowly walked up to Li Chaofeng and asked.

"I can understand you asking other people to come here."

"But why did you invite me here?"

After returning to Shenjian Villa, Xie Xiaofeng has been working hard for the family inheritance, but his heart has always been on Li Chaofeng's side.

Xie Xiaofeng has never been a ruthless person, but he is too smart.

He was smart enough to know that the friendship in his heart would only force him to fight to the death with another group of people.

The reason why the other group of people fought to the death with his relatives was never because they did anything wrong.

They just have to do this to survive.

Xie Xiaofeng couldn't actively attack a group of people who were trying to survive.

Before Li Chaofeng appeared, Xie Xiaofeng was in despair.

Because he knew that the sword of the Third Young Master of the Divine Sword would either maintain the order of hierarchy in the world, or betray the friendship in his heart and stay away from the world.

There are two paths, and he doesn't want to choose either one.

But the appearance of Li Chaofeng created a third way for this world.

A place where everyone is equal and yet one can still see the path to the future.

Li Chaofeng listened to Xie Xiaofeng's doubts, looked at Xie Xiaofeng and said.

"In the past, you could only see the moon in the sky through a telescope. Don't you want to personally witness the miracle of mankind's first entry into space?"

Xie Xiaofeng knew the Rockets, but he knew even more clearly that the Rockets' technology was still not mature enough, so he frowned and retorted.

"As Zhu Ting said, the launch failed again this time. What will you do?"

Li Chaofeng looked at the group of puzzled martial arts masters and said with a smile.

"It doesn't matter if you fail. As long as the reason is right, you will succeed in the end."

"I brought them here just to tell these people that what I have done is never to pursue absolute power, but just..."

“Explore a better future for mankind.”
