Even though Du Feng was a good person and didn't cause any trouble, he was still a cultivator from the Lower Bound. He had started killing people in the Rong Tian State and killed a few elders of the Qingyang Sect when he was still a disciple. On his way up to the Sky Human stage, he had killed who knows just how many enemies and yao beasts. Thus, the killing intent radiating out from him was extraordinarily terrifying.
"Demon … Demon Cultivator. Could he be a Demon Cultivator?"
The customers on the first floor could feel the murderous aura emanating from Du Feng and began to wonder if he was a Demon Cultivator. The city had issued a bounty for Demon Cultivators recently. If he was a Demon Cultivator, they could report him and get a reward.
"Big brother, you're finally here. You scared me to death."
Su Susu ran to Du Feng and held his hand happily. She then glared at the people in the restaurant angrily. Because when she was being bullied just now, there were so many men in the store, but none of them stood out to help.
"Who reported it? Where is the Demon Cultivator?"
Du Feng patted Su Susu's head to reassure her. He would be responsible for all the problems of beating people up and smashing shops. Just then, a few officers rushed over with swords in their hands. Since this place was on the east side of the city center, it was close to the east gate. Therefore, the officers were Old Xue's colleagues and they were led by the team leader of the east gate.
"I reported it. That man is a Demon … Demon Cultivator!"
Said a middle-aged man who was eating in the hall on the first floor. He had a bucktoothed face and looked very skinny. He didn't think that this man would dare to report it to the authorities. He thought that once the city guards arrived, they would definitely take care of Du Feng.
"How dare you!"
The team leader of the city guards shouted. The people around him were so scared that they didn't dare to speak. They thought that he was going to kill the Demon Cultivator in front of him. Who would have thought that he would walk up and slap the person who reported to the officials a few times.
"How dare you accuse Mr. Du of being a Demon Cultivator? Are you blind?"
The team leader might not have known who Du Feng was before, but ever since the incident with Old Xue, he knew who Du Feng was. Fortunately, he had some matters to attend to that day and did not follow along. Otherwise, he would have offended the infantry captain, Sir Tu. How could a human martial artist that Lord Tu had personally verified be a demonic cultivator? It was said that this person had a special relationship with Lord Tu. Now that he had become the owner of the bookstore, he could not be offended.
Uh … the owner of the restaurant was a little dizzy after vomiting blood. Afraid that Du Feng would continue to beat him up, the one who was saved didn't dare to get up. Now that he saw the captain of the East Gate's city defense team, he really wanted to get up and cry about what had happened to him. However, after hearing the words that came out of his mouth, she quickly lay there and continued to pretend to be unconscious.
What kind of joke was this? It turned out that the person who destroyed the shop had a powerful background. Even the captain of the city defense team did not dare to offend him. Why didn't he say so earlier? If he had, he would have stopped the Wu family's servants from taking his sister away. It was too late to say anything now. It was better to continue pretending to be unconscious.
Hearing this, Du Feng was speechless for a while. He just had a bookstore. When did he become Boss Du? Moreover, the dignified captain of the city defense team came to flatter him. He was just the owner of a small bookstore. Did he have to be so arrogant? He destroyed the restaurant, and not only did he not need to pay for it, but he also scared the owner into pretending to be unconscious. Even Du Feng could not believe it.
If he remembered correctly, the guards at the East Gate were specifically targeting him. Why did the situation suddenly change? Du Feng did not understand what was going on. Since there was no need for compensation, it was even better.
"Captain, thank you for upholding justice. I will remember it."
Since the other party had helped him, he had to be polite. Du Feng was also very polite. With such a thank you, the captain of the city defense team felt embarrassed. He pondered. Lord Tu should know about it now, right? As long as Lord Tu knew that he had helped his friend, his career would definitely be smooth sailing in the future.
Ah … That works too. Originally, Zhou Jianqiang thought that Big Sister Su Susu was going to be in trouble this time because he knew that the Wu family was indeed very powerful. Even if Big Sister was not taken away, Big Brother Du had injured someone and destroyed the restaurant. The city defense team would not let it go so easily.
But the truth was that not only was Su Susu fine, Du Feng did not need to pay for it, and he would not be arrested. Then the captain of the city defense team was obviously biased.
"Captain … Captain Hai, our Old Master Wu will not let this go."
The pale-faced servant, who was suppressed at the bottom, was still a little unconvinced. He felt that Captain Hai was obviously siding with Du Feng. One must know that their Old Master Wu was an old official with deep roots in Season City. This Captain Hai was really blind.
"Pfft, your Old Master Wu is nothing compared to Lord Tu."
Old Master Wu was rich, but money could not be compared to power. Who was Lord Tu? He was an infantry officer. And Lord Tu was known as the butcher of the city. His strength was not just an ordinary level. As a subordinate of Lord Tu, Captain Hai naturally knew who to follow.
"Fine, fine. You win."
Seeing that there was no chance for revenge today, the three servants could only crawl up and leave dejectedly. As for the owner of the restaurant, even though he was thrown to the ground, he continued to pretend to be unconscious. Because he really did not know how to face the problem in front of him, he could only continue to pretend to be unconscious.
Until Du Feng, Su Susu, and the rest left, and Captain Hai also left with his men, the owner of the restaurant got up and called the waiters to quickly clean up the smashed table. The restaurant still had to continue to earn money in the future, so he did not dare to offend Captain Hai.
People who could open a restaurant in the bustling streets were not stupid. He had just heard Captain Hai mention Lord Tu. Combined with his attitude towards Du Feng, he could immediately guess that this Mr. Du who smashed the restaurant had a close relationship with Lord Tu.
Thinking of this relationship, he could no longer bear the thought of revenge. He cleaned up the place, put up new counters and tables, and continued to operate his restaurant. This saved Du Feng a lot of trouble.
"What, a newcomer dares to hit someone from the Wu family?"
The three servants returned to the Wu residence with bruises all over their faces. The young master of the Wu family was immediately furious. Coupled with their exaggerated description of their encounter with Su Susu, the young master of the Wu family was determined to teach Du Feng a lesson.
"That Captain Hai said that the Du kid seems to know Lord Tu, we …"
The servant wanted to say something but hesitated. He continued to observe the young master's attitude.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Tu Mancheng is a loner and has no friends. I think the Hai kid is just scaring you."
