Chapter 486 485: Journey to the Barbaric Lands
Ye Feng quickly shook his head and said with a wry smile, "My Lord, I have urgent matters to attend to. As for our wedding ceremony, I promise we'll have one as soon as I get back. I will never let Nataya be wronged in any way!"
Beside him, Nataya pouted and yelled, "You're my husband now! Aren't you going to stay and play with me?"
Play?
Ye Feng was completely dumbfounded.
The few people around them also exchanged wry smiles. 'She really is still just a kid!'
The high-ranking demons standing behind them stared at Ye Feng and gritted their teeth. 'To go after a girl that young... he's a beast. An absolute beast.'
Ye Feng noticed their disapproving gazes, and his face instantly turned beet red. "Um, our flight is about to board, so we should get going. Nataya, when I get back, I promise I'll spend plenty of time playing with you."
With that, he turned to leave.
But just then, Mu Qingyun came over, looked at Ye Feng, and said with a frown, "The airport just informed me that this flight will be delayed for two hours. They're waiting for some big shot."
Lucifer, who was standing nearby, glared. "I'd like to see just who this 'big shot' is that dares to make my son-in-law wait."
With that, he led Ye Feng and their entire group straight toward the airport administration office.
...
In the airport's General Manager's Office,
A crowd of people stood there. At the front, Huo Yun faced a portly, beer-bellied man in a suit and said patiently, "General Manager, we all have urgent matters to attend to. You can't delay all of our travel plans for the sake of one person!"
The crowd behind him began to shout, "That's right! We're all in a hurry! Just let the plane take off on time. An airport like yours shouldn't go back on its word!"
Before they could finish, the beer-bellied man slammed his hand on the desk, shot to his feet, pointed at the crowd, and roared arrogantly, "I'm telling you, I am going back on my word! What are you going to do about it?
And let me tell you something else, a very important person is taking this flight today! You'll wait whether you like it or not! If anyone else makes a scene in here, I'll blacklist them, and they'll never fly with our airline again!"
Everyone was furious, but they were utterly helpless. The airline held all the cards; what they said was final.
But at that very moment, a cold voice rang out from the doorway. "Blacklisting people? How arrogant of you."
Following the voice, Lucifer strode into the room.
Hearing someone dare to cause trouble on his turf, the beer-bellied man exploded in fury. He roared arrogantly, "Damn right I'm arrogant! What are you going to do about it—"
Before he could finish his sentence, he got a clear look at the newcomer. He suddenly screamed, "Lord Lucifer! You're Lord Lucifer!"
As the words left his mouth, his face turned deathly pale, and he began to tremble uncontrollably. 'Heavens, I was just rude to the leader of Satan himself. That's not just a death wish—that's asking to have my entire family line wiped out!'
He couldn't take it anymore. He stumbled and staggered over to Lucifer, dropping to his knees with a THUD. He began banging his head on the floor repeatedly, crying out in a shrill voice, "Lord Lucifer, I had no idea it was you! I wouldn't have dared spout such nonsense, not even if my life depended on it!"
Lucifer bent down to look at the beer-bellied man and spoke calmly, "I hear you delayed this flight because of a 'big shot,' is that right?"
The beer-bellied man nodded frantically. "A councilman is supposed to be on this flight. He's in a meeting right now and won't be here for another two hours, so I had no choice but to delay the departure."
Lucifer nodded. "A councilman, you say."
With that, he pointed to Huo Yun beside him. "Let me introduce you. This is my son-in-law's grandfather. They are also taking this flight. So let me ask you: who's more important? Your councilman, or my son-in-law?"
"Your... son-in-law?" the beer-bellied man shrieked, his face instantly turning as white as a sheet. 'Heavens, I delayed Lord Lucifer's son-in-law just to suck up to some councilman. Did a donkey kick me in the head or something?'
He looked at Lucifer and said hurriedly, "My Lord, I honestly had no idea your son-in-law was on this flight! I wouldn't have dared, not for the life of me! I'll notify the crew right now to take off on schedule!"
Only then did Lucifer nod. He, Ye Feng, and the others then turned to leave.
Lucifer patted Ye Feng's shoulder. "Once you're done with your business, hurry back. I'll hold a grand wedding ceremony for you both."
Ye Feng nodded, bid farewell to Lucifer and his entourage, and went through the VIP boarding tunnel to get straight onto the plane.
The plane quickly taxied onto the runway, its nose lifted, and it took off rapidly, climbing into the clouds and soon disappearing from sight.
...
The plane hadn't been in the air for long when a beautiful young woman suddenly began foaming at the mouth and fell unconscious.
A white-haired old man next to her saw this and screamed, "Miss, wake up! Wake up!"
But the girl didn't stir at all.
A flight attendant came over to check on her but couldn't determine the cause. They quickly made an announcement, "Ladies and gentlemen, is there a doctor on board? If so, we'd be grateful if you could come take a look at this passenger."
Feng Qingwu was about to speak, but just then, a curly-haired, middle-aged man in front of them raised his hand. "I'm a doctor."
With that, he walked straight to the girl's side and said confidently, "I'm a doctor from the United States Medical Association. With me here, she'll be fine."
Hearing this, the white-haired old man let out a long sigh of relief. Doctors from the United States Medical Association were all highly skilled; with this doctor on the case, the girl would surely be saved.
However, after the curly-haired man examined the girl for a moment, his brow instantly furrowed.
