Chapter 677: Depart to Paradise Island
After that, Chen Xiaobei spent another few days at the film base to complete his shooting. In order to convince the filming crew, Chen Xiaobei told them that he passed out during that day because he took in too much smoke. And, he was completely recovered after resting in hospital for a night. None of them doubted his reason since he managed to return to the movie production, unharmed.
The name of this movie was Lin Yue the Heroine after all. Naturally, most of the scenes left belonged to Tang Mengwan. Other than re-shooting some of the minor scenes, Chen Xiaobei took the opportunity to complete the ending scene as well - where he met Tang Mengwan in a huge crowd. Finally, all of Chen Xiaobei's scenes were completed!
Time was just right for Luo Puti and him to depart for Paradise Island. Before leaving for Paradise Island, Chen Xiaobei made a trip to Bei Xuan Faction to collect the pills that he concocted earlier. This time, he managed to produce eight Taiyi Life Enhancement Pills and ten Bone Burning Pills. This current production was more fruitful than the previous batch. Clearly, it was all because of his recent boosted luck. Combined with the previous pills that Chen Xiaobei produced, he now possessed fourteen Taiyi Life Enhancement Pills and fifteen Bone Burning Pills!
Before traveling, Chen Xiaobei would definitely carry all of them with him - in case of emergency. After that, Chen Xiaobei kept his Green Jade Cauldron and Heavenly Smithing Furnace back to his treasure chest and went to the airport.
........
At Dragon City's airport. Luo Puti was there before Chen Xiaobei. The combination of a black cap, long hair, and extra-large shades managed to hide her face completely. However, her small-sized t-shirt and skinny right jeans still managed to bring out her sexy and voluptuous body. With her natural ice-cold goddess aura, men were attracted to her no matter where she stood. Though she did not show her look to others, all men would still do a double take on her.
"Chief Inspector Luo! I'm so sorry for keep you waiting for me for so long!"
Chen Xiaobei strode towards Luo Puti with a smile on his face. He then tapped on her shoulder and shouted.
"Stop shouting! Because of this trip, I have dropped lot of work at Six Doors! That includes a few higher-up meetings! I don't want others to recognize me and accuse me of prioritizing personal business over work!"
"Damn! Honey, are you alright? Did you drop all your work just to keep me company on this trip? Am I hearing it correctly?"
"Paradise Island is a very special place! Since you know nothing about the place, I'm worried if you go alone!"
"What so special about that place?"
"Let's board the airplane first. I will explain it to you on the airplane."
After that, Luo Puti handed the flight ticket to Chen Xiaobei. Initially, Chen Xiaobei wanted to travel to Paradise Island with Luo Puti on the Somersault Cloud. However, Paradise Island was located outside China. As such, a passport and visa were needed for this trip. If not, it would be extremely troublesome if they were being caught as illegal immigrants!
The boarding procedure was smooth and easy. First class seating in the airplane allowed the two of them to have a private talking space after drawing the curtain. No one would overhear their conversation if they stayed in their private space.
"This flight will first send us to the Maldives. After verifying our paperwork to travel to the island, there will be a ferry sending us to the Paradise Island. It can be considered as a private island; hence it does not belong to any country! That's why it is called Paradise Island! On the island, it is filled with facilities that bring joy to people! As long as you are loaded, you will get to enjoy paradise-like treatment!"
"What do you mean by that?"
"You get to enjoy top quality food and drinks! The best shopping experience! The craziest gambling experience! And, men's favorite top quality and most luxurious brothel!"
Luo Puti frowned when she thought about the prostitution service on the island. Clearly, she was disgusted by it.
"Pfft... What's wrong with the brothel over there? I'm pretty sure there are gigolos provided for those rich ladies!"
"They really have gigolos on the island... Just be careful while you are traveling on the island. I won't be able to rescue you if someone kidnaps you and forces you to become a gigolo on the island!"
"Damn! Since when my ice-cold goddess learn how to make a joke like this? This is rare!"
Considering that Luo Puti was always looking cold and emotionless, the moment she made a joke was definitely rarer than seeing an eclipse! This was a good sign for Chen Xiaobei! Cracking a joke could mean Luo Puti was slowly opening up to Chen Xiaobei. Now, she had already trust and acknowledged Chen Xiaobei's masculinity. Sometimes, she even chose to rely on Chen Xiaobei. The day she opened up her heart to him, she would be able to accept Chen Xiaobei fully without holding back.
"Stop talking nonsense! Let's get back to serious business!"
Flushed, Luo Puti was embarrassed. Immediately, she changed the topic.
"Our goal for this trip should be pretty clear! We must get our hands on the thousand years old ginseng! Regarding the auction, there are few things you must bear in mind!"
"Number one, do not expose your real identity! Second, return to our country once the deal is done! Third, lay low! You must lay low!"
"This is not your first day knowing me. I know a lot of things! Laying low is not one of it! What should I do now?"
"Can you stop acting cool? Showing off will only bring you harm! Those who can travel to Paradise Island are not ordinary individuals! And, those who are rich enough to take part in the auction are even more powerful!"
"There is a high chance the both of us will become hot targets if we manage to win the bid on the item that we want! By that time, we might not even know the way we are killed!"
"I don't think so... With our combat power, I don't think it is necessary for us to fear those foreigners!"
"You can think big but you need to see further! There are just too many things in this world that you have not come in contact with! Ask Xiangyu about it if you have the chance! Then, you will know the Jianghu of foreign countries are more terrifying than our Jianghu!"
"Jianghu of foreign countries..."
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei fell into deep thought. The Six Doors Organization that Luo Puti in charge of was supposed to deal with the Jianghu in China. On the other hand, the Thunder Kirin Special Force that Xiangyu worked with was existed to deal with the Jianghu of foreign countries.
"Honey. Do you know where is Bro Yu sent to carry out his mission? Judging from his combat power, he should be back by now. However, I haven't heard from him for a very long time!"
"I'm not too sure about it as well. I think he is sent to protect someone special! Don't worry! Xiangyu now is the most powerful member of Thunder Kirin Special Force! His name will definitely be listed on the new God of War Leaderboard! There is nothing that can beat him down!"
"God of War Leaderboard?"
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei thought of something important.
"Honey, have you registered in the Heroes of War Leaderboard martial arts competition?"
"I did. Did you register to take part in it as well?! No!"
