"What, that Du brat dared to come back?"
As soon as Du Feng returned to the Cloud Capital, someone reported to Qin Yongjie. At first, when Qin Yongjie knew that Du Feng had left the Cloud Capital, he had people pay attention to his whereabouts. When he found that the brat was not in any other city in the Weiyang Continent, he thought he ran away out of fear.
Unexpectedly, Du Feng was not afraid of death at all. He actually returned to the Cloud Capital and began to expand his business with great fanfare. Weapons, armor, spiritual pets, and other goods were all upgraded. Business was booming, and he was earning a lot of crystal stones.
Cai Kangyong saw that there was money to be made and was naturally overjoyed. On the other hand, Qin Yongjie was so angry that his nose was crooked. As the captain of the city defense, his strength was not higher than that of the deputy captain, Cai Kangyong. Now that Cai Kangyong had received financial support from Du Feng, his Cultivation was likely to break through to the Ultimate Emperor Realm. Once he broke through to the Ultimate Emperor Realm, his position as the captain might be lost, and even the deputy city lord might not be his.
"Kill him for me. You must kill him. If necessary, you can …"
Qin Yongjie had ordered his nephew to kill Du Feng no matter what. If necessary, they could resort to unconventional means, even if it was against the laws of the Cloud Capital. He was the captain of the city defense and a relative of the deputy city lord. If he killed a newcomer, even if the city lord found out, he would only scold him a few times. At most, he could deduct a few months of salary. He had too many concerns before, and this brat actually grew up.
"Understood!"
Qin Yongjie took the order and retreated. He did not know what Du Feng's true strength was now. He only knew that he had advanced to the Ascendant Realm Level 4 and was not easy to deal with. As for capturing the Sky Dragon alive, killing the Ascendant Realm martial artist, and throwing one into the White Bone Banner as a warrior, he knew nothing.
As the white leather armor was sold in bulk, the shop's business became better and better, and Mr. Du's reputation grew. His life seemed to have returned to the beginning, nothing more than running the shop, making money, and cultivating. He did not know what Qin Yongjie was planning, but he did not make a move. One morning, a woman walked into the shop.
"So you are Mr. Du!"
Du Feng recognized the person. She was Miss Lan, whom he had met in the territory of the Level Ten Demonic Beast, Blue Peacock. After not seeing her for a while, Miss Lan's Cultivation had improved from the Ascendant Realm Fifth Level to the Sixth Level. Du Feng's Cultivation had advanced from the eighth level of the Feathered Transformation Realm to the fourth level of the Ascendant Realm.
"Why are you here?"
Du Feng was quite surprised to see Miss Lan appear. After all, the two of them had met quite well, and Miss Lan was a rather innocent person. Although she was the Right Guardian of the Life League, she couldn't overturn all of them at once. After all, there were good people in the Life League.
"Why don't you welcome me? You don't even know people after becoming a big boss."
Miss Lan pouted and pretended to be unhappy. Unfortunately, her acting was not small at all. Even her eyes revealed the feeling of a smile. Who would believe that she was really angry? She walked up to him, pinched Du Feng's arm, and then pinched his face, making Du Feng confused, wondering what she was going to do.
"Let me ask you a question. You must answer it truthfully."
Miss Lan suddenly became serious, making Du Feng feel very uncomfortable. What kind of question was it that made her so serious that he had to answer it truthfully.
"Are you human or not?"
When Miss Lan asked the question, Du Feng laughed directly. What kind of question was this? If he wasn't human, could he be a monster? In Miss Lan's mind, Du Feng was indeed similar to a monster. The last time they met, he was a newcomer who had just arrived in the Weiyang Continent. When they met again this time, he had already taken root in the Cloud Capital and became a boss. Not only the Outer City of the Cloud Capital, but even some martial artists in the Inner City knew that there was a Boss Du who sold good things in his store.
Miss Lan had also heard about it, so she came to take a look. She didn't expect that when they met, it was really the Mr. Du she knew, Du Feng himself.
"Of course I'm human. If I'm not human, am I a monster?"
Du Feng was very clear about this question. Although he had died for a while, he was still an authentic human martial artist in this life. There was no doubt about it.
"I really suspect that you are a monster. You are even stranger than our leader."
At the mention of the leader of the Life Alliance, Du Feng's expression turned a little ugly. Although he had a good relationship with Miss Lan, the leader of the Life Alliance was Shangguan Yun. She was the woman who betrayed him on their wedding night and stabbed his dantian.
"Why? Do you know our leader Shangguan?"
Seeing the change in Du Feng's expression, Miss Lan was even more curious. In fact, she had always wanted to introduce Du Feng to Shangguan Yun. She even wanted to pull Du Feng into the Life Alliance. However, Miss Lan thought that Du Feng was just a poor boy who worked hard and didn't have any resources. If he joined the Life Alliance, he would be valued by the leader and get some resources.
Now, it seemed that she was thinking too much. Du Feng had the ability to make money, and his ability was not small at all. In a short period of time, he was already on good terms with Cai Kangyong, the deputy chief captain of the city defense office. Because Cai Kangyong was Captain Yan's uncle, now Du Feng had also become Captain Yan's uncle, which made him feel a little awkward.
"Let's not talk about her. You came here for something else, right?"
Du Feng didn't say that he knew her, nor did he say that he didn't know Shangguan Yun. He just changed the topic. He believed that Miss Lan didn't come to the Outer City just to look at his store. There must be something else.
"Can't I come here just to see you?"
When Miss Lan said this, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Yes, of course you can."
Du Feng really didn't know what to do with such a woman. Since she was already here, they might as well have a meal together. Hence, he brought Miss Lan to a decent restaurant and sat down. They ordered a few dishes and chatted while eating. He never expected that such a small thing would be noticed by Shangguan Yun.
"Du Feng, are you saying that the person Sister Lan went to look for is called Du Feng?"
As the leader of the Life Alliance, Shangguan Yun would certainly pay attention to a few important people in the alliance. Yes, this time, she really didn't send someone to follow Miss Lan. It was the Left Protector of the Life Alliance who secretly liked Miss Lan and decided to follow her on his own. Then, he saw her talking and laughing with Du Feng. They even came out of the store and went to the restaurant together for a meal.
