This time, Du Feng flew a little higher. He quickly passed through the Pink Piggies' territory and did not provoke them again. Originally, he was wondering if he should go around the piggies' territory. But if he did that, he would have to fly very far away from the Grass Sprites' territory. He did not want to stay in the Grass Sprites' territory for even a second longer, so he decided to pass through the piggies' territory.
Luckily, because Du Feng's speed was faster and he was flying high, he did not disturb the group of sleeping piggies. Just like that, he successfully left the Grade 9 Demonic Beasts' territory and arrived at the Grade 8 Demonic Beasts' territory. To the current Du Feng, the Grade 8 Demonic Beasts could be said to be of no threat at all. He did not stop and directly flew out. Very soon, he arrived at the Grade 7 Demonic Beasts' territory. At this point, he was not far from the exit. Du Feng retracted his Flaming Wings to avoid attracting too much attention.
"Qing'er, let's say our goodbyes here."
They were already not far from the exit. Furthermore, the Grade 7 Demonic Beasts did not harm Qing'er. All good things must come to an end. Du Feng decided to say his goodbyes here. Old Zhong's soul had already been taken out from the pocket dimension of the necklace and placed on a soul token. Qing'er only needed to take the soul token and the Human-Faced Peach that Du Feng had given her to find someone to help reconstruct Old Zhong's body.
"Little friend, I have something to discuss with you."
Old Zhong hurriedly called out when he saw that Du Feng was about to leave. He was afraid that he would not have the chance if he spoke too late.
"Uncle, if there's anything, just say it."
Old Zhong's performance was not bad, leading the team conscientiously. It was just that he was a little unlucky and was stabbed by someone before he could get far.
"Look, it's like this. We have a total of ten Human-Faced Peaches. Can Miss Murong use five while I use five?"
From Old Zhong's point of view, since you've already obtained ten Human-Faced Peaches, you should split them equally. Besides, you took such a huge risk to bring Qing'er in. You must like her. So he decided to throw away his face and ask for a Human-Faced Peach from Du Feng.
"No!"
Du Feng's answer was very straightforward. There were only two words in his words. This sentence made Old Zhong choke on his words. It was beyond his expectations.
"How about this, Miss Murong will use six, and I will use four. That should be fine, right?"
"No!"
Du Feng rejected Old Zhong with two simple words again. What kind of joke was this? It was already a great kindness for him to have saved his soul, and he still wanted four Human-Faced Peaches? How greedy!
"Father, don't say anymore."
Qing 'er, who was at the side, also felt very embarrassed. When did her father, who was usually simple and honest, become so thick-skinned? Giving them a Human-faced Peach was already a big deal. Don't forget that their lives were saved by Brother Du. The father and daughter duo had nothing to offer in return.
"Fine, fine, fine. I understand that Miss Murong needs seven Human-Faced Peaches to create a perfect body. Then, three should be fine, right?"
When Lao Zhong said this, he was already unhappy. He felt as if Du Feng owed him something. There were a total of ten Human-Faced Peaches. It should be enough for your cousin to use seven, right? Seven should be enough to create a perfect body. The remaining three should belong to me.
"If you want to create a perfect body, you can go back again. I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you."
If not for Qing 'er's face, Du Feng would have taken back the last Human-Faced Peach. What the hell was this? He saved someone, helped them, and in the end, he was blamed. Sure enough, like master, like disciple. No wonder that Young Man was so strange. She had learned it from Old Zhong.
Du Feng even suspected that Young Man was Old Zhong's disciple or his illegitimate son. Why were their personalities so similar? His intuition was very accurate. Young Man was really Old Zhong's son. Moreover, he had her with the widow next door. In order to fool others, he had adopted Qing 'er.
In the eyes of outsiders, Old Zhong had brought up a good disciple and adopted a daughter. But in reality, he had adopted a daughter to prepare a wife for his illegitimate son. The reason he had gone to the forest to earn money was also to save money for Young Man.
Of course, all of this was just Du Feng's guess. He was not sure, so he did not ask. After all, asking Qing 'er such a question was too sudden and hurtful.
After saying that, Du Feng used his movement technique and left, not giving Old Zhong a chance to say anything else. This kind of person who looked simple and honest actually had a dark side, even darker than the average person. Although he did not fight or rob, he did not dare to kill and rob. But secretly seduced the widow next door, and did not want to marry her. Raising an illegitimate son, but did not dare to admit that he was his biological son. Adopting Qing 'er was just to prepare a wife for his illegitimate son. All these things were enough to show that timid people were even more vicious when they did bad things.
"Hmph, such a petty person should die on Monkey Mountain."
Seeing Du Feng leave, Old Zhong cursed behind his back. Qing 'er stood by the side of the road, looking extremely embarrassed. She had wanted to thank her Brother Du for saving her life, but before she could say anything, her father had driven her away in anger. Now that things had turned out like this, she would not have the face to see him in the future.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and find someone."
Old Zhong was infuriated by Du Feng, but he did not dare to fall out with him, so he could only vent his anger on Qing 'er. After hearing this, Qing 'er put away the soul token and the Human-Faced Peach and walked out obediently. She was used to being disciplined by Old Zhong from a young age, and did not know how to resist.
If it was a young miss with a temper like Tang Jiaojiao, she would probably destroy the soul token, leaving Old Zhong with no place to store his soul. Let's see how he would continue scolding people.
To Du Feng, this was just a small interlude. After coming out of the primordial forest, he went to Moonlake City and used the teleportation formation there to quickly return to the southern city. Even with the Guigu Family, Nangong Family, and even the Life Moon Alliance's minions, the southern city was still a relatively safe place.
After all, Du Feng had his own shop here, and it was located on the main street, not far from the city defense office. His relationship with the head captain of the city defense office, Old Xu, was very good. As long as he did not go to those empty alleys, there should not be any problems. Actually, even the librarian auntie did not expect that Du Feng did not really go to the residential area she had arranged for him.
That place was originally quite secluded, and it was protected by a Grade 8 formation. It could be considered a very safe place to stay. But as luck would have it, it was easy to be ambushed on the way to the residential area. For the sake of safety, Du Feng brought the Human-Faced Peach back to the new shop he had bought.
