"That makes sense. Those young masters are probably dead too."
"Pfft, good for them. I've been wanting to teach them a lesson for a long time."
Most of the martial artists who entered the primordial forest were commoners. Using commoners as bait was too much. There were only a few big families in each city, and the number of descendants of the aristocratic families was low to begin with. However, commoner martial artists usually didn't dare to offend them. Now that someone had killed the culprits, Li Qiuchan and her sister, as well as those troublemakers, everyone was naturally happy.
"When everyone returns, we must spread the news of Li Qiuchan and those young masters. We must let the entire city know."
An aged cultivator was so excited that he was gasping for breath as he spoke. The young man in the video who had his legs chopped off lived in the same alley as him. The young man and his elderly mother depended on each other. Now that he was dead, only his elderly mother was left.
"No, not only must we let the entire city know, but we must also let the entire continent know about their evil deeds."
Everyone's discussion became more intense as they thought of various ways to expand their influence. Meanwhile, Du Feng had already returned to the southern city through the teleportation formation in the Moonlight Lake City. He went straight to Lin Nujiao's weapon shop to see if she was alright.
Actually, he had contacted Lin Nujiao through the voice transmission talisman when he had just left the primordial forest. Lin Nujiao had said that she was fine, but Du Feng had been worried that she had been threatened by someone.
"Big Brother, you're back so soon."
Hearing Hong Waner's hoarse voice, Du Feng was sure that the weapon shop was fine. If something had really happened, he would have been dead by now.
"I told you I'm fine. Do you believe me now?"
Lin Nujiao rolled her eyes at Du Feng. She pretended to be angry, but she was actually very happy inside. Since one had to pay to enter the primordial forest, most people would only come out after a month or two. Du Feng must have been worried about his safety since he had come out so soon.
"I already know about the matter between you and the Guigu Family. Don't worry."
Du Feng's biggest enemy on the Weiyang Continent was the Guigu Family Clan. If something really happened, it would definitely be the Guigu Family Clan who did it. However, his worries were unnecessary because this was Southern City. First of all, the southern city was in the south of the Weiyang Continent, so it wasn't easy for the Guigu Family in the north to intervene. Moreover, the Southern City was larger than the Ghost Valley City, and the Castellan's Cultivation Level was also higher than the Ghost Valley City's Castellan's Cultivation Level.
If the Gui Family really dared to cause trouble in the Southern City, then it wouldn't be just Du Feng's problem. It wouldn't be just him and Lin Nujiao's problem. Instead, it was the Ghost Valley City interfering with the Southern City, or even the Northern City interfering with the Southern City's affairs.
Although they were all on the Weiyang Continent and were all monitored by the higher-ups of the Cloud Capital, none of them were willing to submit to each other. Moreover, Lin Nujiao had already applied for permanent resident status, so the Guigu family wouldn't dare to touch her. Unless they used the refugees to launch a suicide attack.
That's right, many of the cultivators from the Lower Realm would take risks for the sake of money and resources because they could no longer make a living. It wasn't convenient for the Guigu Family to show up, so they might bribe the refugees from the Lower Realm to make them do it. If they succeeded, they would escape back to the Lower Realm. If they failed, they would just die. Anyway, the Cultivation Level would regress sooner or later, and they might even die in the suburbs.
"Pay more attention to non-locals in the future. Don't let them get close to your Sister Lin."
Du Feng ordered Hong Waner and the quadruplets to keep an eye on the people who came to the shop. The five of them had been on the streets for a long time, so they knew very well who was a local and who was a foreigner. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to block Big Brother Du so accurately.
"Don't worry, we know what to do."
"Today, there was a man with a fake ID card who tried to sneak into the shop. I reported him to the authorities and arrested him."
Although Hong Waner was a hooligan, he was quite smart in some things. He also thought that some refugees might sneak in and cause trouble. However, he wasn't thinking about the refugees attacking Lin Nujiao, but he was afraid that it would affect the shop's business. For this reason, he coincidentally saw through a refugee named Sun Weiyi.
He didn't know how this person had snuck into Southern City, or if he had received help from someone. Just as he walked to the entrance of the weapons shop and was about to squeeze in, he was recognized by Hong Waner. He used his old hooligan methods to casually make a fuss, and his background was exposed. After reporting to the authorities, the city guards found out that his ID card was also fake, so they brought him back to the city defense office for interrogation.
Du Feng had never heard of the name Sun Weiyi, but he had actually seen him outside Bei Du City. It was the vagrant who begged him. Martial artists from the South Continent could still spend money in places like the Emerald Fragrance Pavilion at first, but in the end, they ended up begging.
"There's news. This person actually self-detonated his Inner Core in the city defense office and died."
As they chatted, Lin Nujiao received news that the refugee from the Lower Realm, Sun Weiyi, had self-detonated his Inner Core and died. If it were in the past, Du Feng would really believe that he had self-detonated his Inner Core. However, after the incident in the primeval forest where Li Qiuchan harmed people, this view changed.
Not only could the Inner Core self-detonate, but it could also be detonated by others, and the time of detonation could also be controlled. This refugee, Sun Weiyi, was probably the person who had been sent to the weapons shop to cause trouble. The mission he had received was probably to cause trouble, but he did not know that his body had already been tampered with.
As long as Sun Weiyi followed the instructions and stayed in the weapons shop without leaving, his Inner Core would definitely explode after a long time. At that time, Lin Nujiao would be injured even if she did not die, and the business of the shop would be ruined. No wonder Lin Nujiao was so confident that Du Feng's friends would also be unlucky.
"Well done!"
Du Feng patted Hong Waner's shoulder, giving him a lot of recognition for his performance today. If Hong Waner had not suddenly revealed Sun Weiyi's true identity and allowed him to sneak into the shop, it would have been big trouble. Friends would have been injured, customers would have been injured, and goods would have been destroyed. The losses would have been extremely heavy.
"You're saying that someone did this on purpose?"
After listening to Du Feng's analysis, Lin Nujiao also felt a lingering fear. She had originally thought that she was quite safe in Southern City, but now it seemed that things were not that simple. Even the city defense office could not tell that Sun Weiyi had been tampered with. This kind of self-destructive attack was really scary.
