Chapter 471: The Crisis at the Airport

Tang Xiu's expression drastically changed as he grabbed Turtledove's collar and said in a heavy voice, "Are you sure time bombs have been planted in Shanghai Airport? You are not lying to me?"

"I may dare to deceive anyone, but not him," replied Turtledove while glancing at Xing Li.

"Tell me the location of the bombs!" said Tang Xiu, clenching his fist.

"They were placed by Old Wolf, while I'm responsible to monitor the concert site. I don't know their location," Turtledove answered as he shook his head.

Tang Xiu took a deep breath, quickly looked at his watch and said, "How long does it take to get to the airport from here?"

"It will take an hour or so to drive there," answered Turtledove.

Tang Xiu took out his mobile and dialed Liu Changxi's cell number.

"Where are you now, Tang Xiu?" Liu Changxi's voice came after the call connected.

"Secretary Liu, let us forget where I am first! I just received news that the extremists' target tonight is not just Zhang Xinya's concert, but they also placed time bombs in Shanghai Airport. The remaining time to the explosions is only 20 minutes or so."

At the backstage of the concert, Liu Changxi suddenly contracted his pupils after hearing Tang Xiu's report. His heart thumped so fast it felt like a hurricane. Panicked, he hurriedly asked, "Is this information really accurate and reliable, Tang Xiu? What are the exact locations of the time-bombs?"

"The news is reliable! But I don't know where they have been laid," said Tang Xiu.

In a deep and heavy voice, Liu Changxi said, "I'll immediately contact the Shanghai Airport's authorities and make them search for their locations as fast as possible. Also, I'm going to send some people over there."

"I'm afraid it's too late. However, we must inform the airport. Furthermore, I've already left the New World Center since I needed to deal with something elsewhere. I'm quite near Shanghai Airport, so contact the authorities from the airport and make them cooperate with me when I get there!"

Recalling Tang Xiu's special abilities, Liu Changxi was immediately pleasantly surprised, "Great, that would be great! I'll make sure to inform them. Please do it, Tang Xiu!"

"Mm!" Tang Xiu ended the call and walked toward the outside. He then said to Xing Li, who was following him, "You all go back to Jingmen Island. Do bear in mind that you must scatter into small groups and leave quietly. Don't take the trains, planes, or public transportation vehicles, for those will expose your identities easily."

"Copy that!" Xing Li's stopped following as he looked at the back of the departing Tang Xiu. He quickly returned to the room to inform the others, and quickly left.

In the darkness of the night, Tang Xiu left the three-storied building. His figure was ghostly and extremely fast. Within just two minutes, he already arrived at the underground parking lot, and then drove away at a very fast speed.

As of now, his driving skills were virtually matchless. With a reaction speed and eyesight that were many times stronger than ordinary people; his driving speed was practically neck-breaking. His Range Rover SUV was akin to a mustang running wild on the wide road, with its speedometer pointing at 200 km/h. He even used his stellar reaction speed to directly cross several red lights.

Time was against him, he knew this perfectly well. A travel that one usually used one hour, there were only 20 minutes for him to arrive at the airport. Hence, he must speed up his car to the extreme. He even planned to abandon the car once he bumped into a traffic jam. Though his present cultivation was very low, his speed was comparable to the Land Rover's speed limit if he was to push his it to the limit.
