"Hu … …"
After everyone left, the young woman took a deep breath. She had been given quite a fright just now. If her daughter said something wrong, the constables would definitely make a move. If they really made a move, there were only two ways to solve it. One was for Du Feng to be captured and brought back to the yamen to be executed. The other was for Du Feng to kill all the constables and escape for his life.
Either way, it was not what she wanted to see. Because if Du Feng was captured, there was an 80% chance that he would not come back alive. If Du Feng killed the constables and escaped, he would still not be able to leave East Immortal City alive. No matter what, it would be a dead end.
However, she did not expect her daughter to be so smart and make such a clever perjury. Although it was wrong for a child to lie, today's lie was good.
"Tsk, you are not a good child when you lie."
As soon as Du Feng released the Koi Boy, Du Feng blurted out such a sentence.
"Sigh, why is there such a big difference between people?"
Du Feng looked at the koi boy and shook his head helplessly. Although the koi boy looked more like a child, he was actually not that young. Unfortunately, his intelligence would forever be stuck at the level of a brat.
"What, did I say something wrong?"
The koi boy was still unconvinced and felt that what he said was right.
"Eat your food. If you don't want to eat, then shut your mouth."
Towards this disobedient child, Du Feng was speechless and could only use delicious food to shut his mouth.
The koi boy was still unconvinced, but when he thought of food, he did not say anything more. After he finished eating, he still had to discuss how to save the blue jade boy. These children were really worrisome. He wondered how the sword emperor was doing after losing his body.
It was a very dangerous thing for a martial artist to lose his body. Either he quickly think of a way to reconstruct his body or he could find a body to take over. Reconstructing a body required help. A soul state was not something that could be done by a single person.
Taking over a body was not that simple either. He had to first capture the target, and it would be best if he could paralyze them and control them. Then, he could switch from one body to another. If he was already in a pure soul state, it would be quite difficult to capture a living person.
Du Feng reckoned that the Sword Emperor's soul was still residing in the sword. Fortunately, his swordsmanship had reached a certain level, and he had reached the realm of being one with the sword. Even his soul was the same as his treasured sword. If it was someone else, if they couldn't enter the Spirit Bottle, they could only be a wandering ghost.
Lonely souls and wild ghosts couldn't exist for too long in this world. They would either slowly dissipate or be captured. Although the Underworld could not interfere with the affairs of the Heaven Realm, there were many servants in the Underworld who often collected the wandering wandering souls.
He hoped that the Sword Emperor hadn't been captured. He hoped that everything was not too late. Du Feng was waiting for the auction at the beginning of next month so that he could buy a ticket there.
Three days later, the restriction on leaving the city was lifted. There were really demonic cultivators caught, and there was more than one of them. He didn't know what method they used to find the Devil Cultivator from the vast sea of people. One of the Devil Cultivators, who was already at the Golden Immortal stage of Cultivation, was also found by them.
No matter what, Du Feng wasn't caught. In these three days, he didn't dare to use any demonic skills, and didn't leak any demonic qi. He was completely in the state of a normal martial artist. He even used the kitchen as a temporary forging workshop.
Inside the house, a new batch of weapons was being forged with tinkling sounds.
The last time he forged weapons was to fill the red gourd with flying swords. Other than that, he hadn't done such hard work for a long time. Why did he spend so much effort to forge a batch of weapons this time? Of course, it was to earn money. In less than half a month, it would be the auction at the beginning of next month. He was afraid that he didn't have enough money, and it would be awkward if he couldn't buy a ticket.
If it was any other time, he could wait for another month. But now that there was the matter of the Sword Emperor and the child, he really couldn't wait anymore. If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't fly over the Heavenly River, he would have flown over himself.
The new batch of weapons was placed into the red gourd, and the flying swords inside were taken out.
That's right, Du Feng was making use of this method to earn money. This was because Geng Essence could upgrade a weapon by one level, and the red gourd could upgrade a weapon by another level. In this way, he used the little bit of Geng Essence he had left, and combined it with the ores he had, to make a batch of middle-grade magic artifacts. Then, he placed them into the red gourd to upgrade them to high-grade magic artifacts.
High-grade magic artifacts were suitable for martial artists at Heaven Immortal Stage Level Six to Level Nine, and they were still worth some money. In particular, the red gourd's blood-breaking effect increased the value of the flying swords. This so-called blood-breaking effect meant that once a wound was cut open, the blood wouldn't stop flowing, and it could resist the self-healing ability of the martial artist.
In a battle of life and death, there was often no time to stop the bleeding and apply medicine. If the wound couldn't heal itself, it would be very troublesome.
The only pity was that the red gourd needed a certain amount of time to upgrade the flying swords. Moreover, with the red gourd's current grade, it could only store 15 flying swords at one time. It couldn't store any more, and it wouldn't be able to upgrade them immediately after putting them in.
For the rest of the time, Du Feng didn't forge anymore because low-grade magic artifacts weren't worth much. If he used Geng Essence to upgrade them to middle-grade, it wouldn't be worth it because Geng Essence itself was quite expensive. Therefore, he made time to make array discs like crazy.
Ever since he got a large number of Phoenix Diamonds in the Qiankun Small World, it had been a long time since he made money selling goods. This time, he was trying his best to help a friend.
"Young Master, are you short of money? The rent can be cheaper."
Seeing that Du Feng was so busy all day, the young woman thought he was especially short of money.
"No, I just want to buy more things at the auction, and I'm afraid I don't have enough money."
Actually, Du Feng was exaggerating a little. If it was just to buy a ticket, he wouldn't need so much money. Firstly, he wanted to be on the safe side, and he was afraid that the ticket price would be too high. Secondly, he wanted to see what other things were at the auction.
If the Blue Jade Child happened to be sold at the auction, or if there was something else that he liked but didn't have money, it would be too embarrassing.
Just like that, nearly half a month passed, and it was finally the first day of the second month. Du Feng first changed his appearance, and then he took the auction ticket that he bought from the bookstore owner. He first went around the alley and walked on the street for a while. Then, he found another alley, and after a few turns, he went in again.
