Chapter 148 Shall I send you off on my sword?
"Sword dizziness?" Rose asked, puzzled.

Jian Ning was so dazed by the wind that she was almost dumbfounded. She was also dizzy from vomiting and couldn't explain the situation to Rose. She only said, "I flew here on my sword."

Rose's eyes lit up immediately. "Ningning, after the meeting, you'll probably need to go back and pack your things, right? Could you give me a ride on your way?"

Jian Ning swallowed hard and asked with difficulty, "Are you sure?"

Rose nodded affirmatively. "So far, no one in Sector N09 can fly. You are the first, and I also want to experience this joy."

Jian Ning chuckled dryly, "Hehe, okay, I'll take you there later."

It's the same meeting room as last time.

The locations of the three islands were circled on the huge glass screen.

"We can roughly pinpoint this area, but you'll need to spend some time exploring to find out which island it is. Professor Wenxing is a particularly important chip expert at our base, so we hope this rescue mission will be a complete success."

“Of course.” The woman’s gaze fell on Jian Ning and she said to her, “The most important thing is to ensure your own safety. If anything happens, you can contact our headquarters at any time via carrier pigeon. If the rescue is extremely difficult, we can discuss and come up with a foolproof plan.”

"We have prepared a map for you, as well as an island survival guide. There are also a few photos of Professor Wenxing to help you identify the person. We also have some medicines and bandages that you may need in case of emergencies."

"Since we thought it would be better for you to travel light, we didn't prepare anything else. If you need anything, you can get it yourself, and the base will reimburse you."

Jian Ning took the map, survival manual, and a small first-aid kit, and nodded, saying, "No problem."

The woman asked, "Do you have any other concerns or things you need to explain?"

Jian Ning shook her head. "That's all."

The woman then asked, "What time is your flight? Is there anything I can help you with? We'll assist you throughout the process."

Jian Ning thought for a moment and said, "Book me a flight to Zhangdao."

The people in the conference room were puzzled: "Are you going to Zhangdao to set up some kind of formation in advance, or..."

Jian Ning replied truthfully, "Being closer means I can avoid flying a bit further."

Everyone: "..."

"Okay, I'll arrange your flight this afternoon right away. I'll send you the ticket information via Feige later."

After the meeting.

As Rose walked out of the conference room, she noticed that Jian Ning's hands were empty. "You didn't take the maps or anything. I'll go back and get them for you."

Jian Ning grabbed her and said, "Take it."

Although Jian Ning explained most of the things about the cultivation system, she didn't reveal everything.

For example, she didn't mention the Qiankun Ring, or that Teacher Su came from the cultivation world to guide her.

Rose immediately understood, "You have a space, just like the kind of space described in novels, where you can take things out and put them back in anytime."

Jian Ning replied dismissively, "I guess so."

The two went downstairs, and Jian Ning summoned the Qingfeng Blade from her Qiankun Ring. The gleaming sword floated on the ground.

Rose's eyes lit up even more. "I'm just going to stand there like that?"

Jian Ning stepped forward and stretched out a hand, "Come on."

"Can you support the weight?" Rose took her hand and carefully stood up, her body wobbling slightly. She gripped Jian Ning's hand even tighter. "Won't I fall?"

Jian Ning used an invisibility spell and flew upwards on her sword.

The sudden feeling of weightlessness made Rose's heart skip a beat.

"Ah ah ah ah..."

The wind howled against her face. Rose, afraid of falling, clung tightly to Jian Ning's waist, refusing to let go: "It's too high, it's just too high. Ning Ning, am I going to fall?"

"Yes, so hurry up." Jian Ning stood up and wiped her nose with her hand.

It's so damn cold. She didn't understand what went wrong, why there was such a big difference between her and Teacher Su when they were both flying on swords.

Behind them, Rose's incessant screams echoed.

"Ningning, slow down."

"Ahhh, I never want to play this again, it's too exciting!"

"Flying on a sword is not fun at all."

……

Upon arriving at the villa, Rose jumped off the Qingfeng Blade, her legs trembling. Fortunately, Jian Ning caught her, preventing her from collapsing.

Rose gagged, but because she hadn't eaten anything that morning, she couldn't vomit anything.

Her voice trembled as she said, "I understand, I understand everything."

Jian Ning asked, "What do you know?"

"Now I understand why you reacted that way this morning, ugh~" Rose gagged a few more times. "This sword is really dizzying. And there's absolutely no protection, it's too dangerous."

Jian Ning said sincerely, "Then I'll put a baby seat on the sword next time, and you can try it again?"

"No, no, I dare not sit here again." Rose waved her hand, her eyes, which had been shining brightly before, were now dull and lifeless. She felt as if her soul had been ripped away. She quickly made an excuse to escape: "I have a blind date at noon, I'm going to be late, I'm leaving now, Ningning."

Jian Ning kindly said, "Shall I take you there on my sword? Hurry up."

Rose's legs were faster than her mouth; she had already run quite a distance and shouted, "No need, I'll take a taxi myself."

Jian Ning chuckled.

She started packing her luggage, including her winter coat.

Also, bring along a full set of winter hats, scarves, and cotton boots, stuff them into your storage ring—they don't take up much space anyway.

Jian Ning thought that if the rescue mission dragged on for a long time, she should bring more food.

Unfortunately, besides eggs and vegetables, there was nothing else at home. The only thing that could be considered food was the steamed bun dough she had frozen in the refrigerator. She didn't usually eat snacks.

She packed the frozen, rock-hard steamed bun dough, thinking she could buy some food after landing in Zhangdao.

Jian Ning wandered around the house, and also packed a few bottles of the pills she had made for practice.

She also brought the alchemy furnace, just in case the system triggered a mission about some rare monsters on the island, and she could refine pills on the spot.

Before leaving, Jian Ning said goodbye to her cats and dogs, asking them to take good care of her.

"Wait until I come back."

As Jian Ning left the villa and got into a taxi, she sensed that something was wrong.

There was a car following too closely behind.

She frowned, pretending not to see it, and went to the airport to get her boarding pass and choose her seat. The feeling of being watched never left her.

Jian Ning saw that it was still early, so she went to buy milk tea, and then casually turned around and glanced at it.

You can spot a suspicious person at a glance. If she looks at them and they immediately look away, then they're probably up to no good.

He was a man in his thirties or forties.

Jian Ning held the freshly made milk tea and deliberately walked towards that person, who then pretended to be looking at his phone.

She went through the ticket check, found the boarding gate, and could still see the man.

It seems the other party had some knowledge of her schedule.

She finished her milk tea, threw it in the trash can, went to the restroom, and sent a message to Rose via carrier pigeon.

"Someone was following me, and my itinerary was leaked."
