Suddenly, a loud noise echoed as the thick cabin door was swiftly removed and thrown to the ground with a heavy thud, leaving the flight attendants in shock.
Inside the cockpit, both the captain and co-pilot turned back, horrified by the commotion.
They just happened to see Wu Liang nonchalantly dusting off his hands as he walked in.
Ignoring the shocked expressions of the captain and co-pilot, Wu Liang loudly declared, "This plane will encounter a supernatural event in ten minutes. You must immediately report to the control tower and change the flight path! Deviate as much as possible! Remember, you only have ten minutes!"
After saying this, he pulled two flight attendants into the cockpit and said without turning back, "You two explain my identity! I’ll first investigate the airspace up ahead!"
Before anyone could react, he disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a strange mist drifting inside the cabin.
This was Wu Liang summoning the Mist Ghost outside the plane in advance and then using [Ghost Shadow Following Form] to swap locations and transport himself out.
After all, at this altitude of ten thousand meters, he dared not open the cabin door to fly out.
If he really did that, the cabin would instantly lose pressure, and ordinary people would likely perish quickly due to lack of oxygen and extremely low temperatures.
Immediately afterward, the captain and co-pilot were astonished to find Wu Liang’s figure abruptly appearing right in front of the plane, rushing toward the distance at a speed surpassing theirs!
"He said he’s an official Awakened named Shadow, the person who saved Chengyang City before. Captain, should we really listen to him?" a flight attendant hurriedly asked.
After all, no one had time to verify Wu Liang’s identity before he had already vanished from the plane.
The captain took another look at the thoroughly dismantled door on the ground, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "Contact the tower, prepare to change the flight path!"
To be able to become the captain, he was very confident in his ability to adapt to situations.
Since the person successively demonstrated special abilities capable of destroying the whole plane and could also fly alone, and still took the time to come to the cockpit and say a lot, it indicated he indeed meant no harm.
After all, if he intended to cause harm, the plane would probably already be crashing.
Flying at full speed in the sky of ten thousand meters, Wu Liang took less than five minutes to arrive at the location where the plane would originally face an incident.
As soon as he flew over, he instantly felt a malevolent intent locking onto him.
This area was indeed supernaturally sealed!
Suddenly, a giant thunder roared in the sky.
The clouds immediately turned pitch black, sweeping along with fierce winds and some rain as they hurled a blinding lightning bolt at Wu Liang.
Accompanied by Wu Liang’s shout, large pieces of mist formed into shield-like shapes, layered before him, and solidified into tangible entities.
The lightning struck fiercely, penetrating seven or eight mist shields before dissipating, just shy of hitting Wu Liang’s body.
"What a joke, you really think I’m an idiot?" Wu Liang grinned widely.
At the moment the dark clouds appeared, he already saw what kind of thing the fierce ghost actually was!
After all, this place is different from the ground; at this altitude, besides the white clouds, there shouldn’t be anything else.
But Wu Liang clearly saw a tiny, swift white bird dart into the clouds, and only after did those strange dark clouds appear!
Where did such a tiny bird come from that could fly at ten thousand meters high and shuttle within dark clouds?!
The next second, as Wu Liang flew beside the clouds, a puppet doll slipped from his pocket and expanded visibly.
When its form completely matched Wu Liang’s, the Puppet Ghost wore a similarly mocking smile.
"Here we go, boss! I’ll make it come out!"
With the Puppet Ghost’s loud shout, a dense amount of mist emanated from it as well, instantly covering the dark clouds like painting white onto a black ball.
The mist chaotically roamed within the clouds, constantly solidifying into entities, trying to force the white bird out.
Finally, after several minutes of attempts, a white figure suddenly shot out from the clouds!
But Wu Liang had been waiting there for a long time!
Holding a familiar rusty kitchen knife without hesitation, he slashed from the bird’s head to its tail, accurately slicing it in two.
Yet, the next moment, the fiercely ghost cut into a bird shape managed to recover instantly after merely trembling for a moment and continued to dive into another cloud at an astonishing speed!
"Sigh...What kind of thing is this?"
Wu Liang sighed, understanding that this entity had some special property enabling it to be immune to slashes, then he consulted [Ghost Compendium] for information on the fierce ghost—
[Habits: Prefers staying near cloud clusters, irritable temperament, displays intense aggression towards anything passing by, can change the properties of surrounding cloud clusters to release strong lightning strikes, and can utilize white clouds to instantly repair damage]
[Weakness: Thunder Ghost becomes weak once detached from the clouds and easy to exorcise]
"Detached from clouds, huh? It’s rather troublesome...I should’ve known not to let the plane get so far," Wu Liang murmured to himself scratching his head.
Turning his head, the cloud where the Thunder Ghost had darted into started to turn utterly black again, and the friction of charges in the air brought a slight numbness.
He shouted toward the Puppet Ghost, "Puppet! Come over and try again! This time, go directly into the clouds and hold onto that bird! Make sure you hold tight!"
On the other side, after contacting the tower, the plane had exchanged information, confirming that the official Awakened "reporter," known as "Shadow" by Chengyang’s citizens, was indeed on this flight.
According to the situation, the tower uploaded the newly adjusted flight path, and the captain piloted the plane swiftly away from the original route.
Nearly twenty minutes had passed since Shadow’s warning, and everything being normal assuredly eased everyone onboard.
"Captain, after changing the flight path, how will Shadow get back?" A flight attendant asked worriedly.
Her concern was reasonable; after all, the change in flight path was only settled after Wu Liang left, and there was no way to contact the flying Wu Liang from ten thousand meters high.
But before the captain figured out how to answer, the cabin experienced another anomaly!
Everyone in the cockpit abruptly turned around and discovered a familiar silhouette heavily falling onto the thick door that was earlier thrown to the ground.
The only difference was—Wu Liang reappeared, this time scorched black, his hairstyle even giving off a slight explosive look.
He clutched a white object in his hand, which was furiously struggling.
"Hahaha! Trying to repair again? I’d like to see what white clouds you can absorb inside the plane!" His laughter was as bright as ever.
A flight attendant holding a phone couldn’t resist taking a photo.
Wu Liang couldn’t imagine that before he landed, a funny image would soon be transmitted to the Capital City’s official headquarters... ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ nοvelfire.net
