"Thank you!"
It was not until Du Feng turned around and left that he said thank you.
Du Feng did not want to stay on the island any longer. He quickly left the River Demon Island and jumped into the river alone. First, he swam past the area surrounded by Heavenly Profound Water and then took out his mechanical dragon. With the fastest speed, he left the area where the island was located.
"Interesting, there are actually two alive this time."
"Yeah, should I kill this one?"
At this time, there were two figures floating above the island. They both looked like humans. If Du Feng saw them, he would definitely be able to recognize one of them. That's right, this person was the one who lurked beside Du Feng before landing on the island. At that time, Du Feng thought that he was also here for a mission, so he did not pay much attention to him.
When he really fought with the River Demon, he did not see this person appear. Du Feng thought that he had left early.
In fact, this person was not a human Martial Artist from the Southern Heaven Realm, but a standard River Demon, and a highly Cultivated River Demon. His appearance was no different from that of a human, and he dared to float above the Heavenly River. There were many ferocious water birds above the Heavenly River, and it was easy to be attacked by floating in the air. Moreover, the situation on this island was special. Ordinary people could not fly at all.
"Forget it, fortune favors fools. Let's spare his life."
The other was a real human Martial Artist. What the two were discussing just now was whether to kill the uncle with the Pagoda Technique. Because he survived by luck, it was not considered a mission completed by his own ability. According to the agreement between the River Demon and the Human Martial Artists, this kind of person had to be killed, and they could not let him get points for free. Of course, there were exceptions to everything. In the end, it was still up to the higher-ups to let him go.
Perhaps even a smart person like Du Feng would not have thought that this so-called River Demon Island and the mission of killing each other was just a game between the higher-ups of both sides. No matter which side won, it was equivalent to winning a game of chess for them. At most, they would just get a faint smile.
"Brother, you haven't won for a long time."
"Yeah, this time it's all thanks to that Du kid. I hope he can live a little longer."
The first few rounds of the mission all ended with the failure of the human martial artists. The most ideal situation was for the human martial artists to perish together with the river monsters. This was because the River Demons would never admit defeat. Once they lost, they would all self-destruct. There was almost no chance for humans to win.
Du Feng was special this time. He lured the river demon leader away and didn't give it a chance to self-destruct. He directly dug out its inner core. As for the Treasured Pagoda Technique uncle being able to survive, he really had some dogsh * t luck.
Since the two higher-ups had witnessed the entire process of Du Feng's battle, they naturally knew that he had the White Bone Banner. But to these upper echelons, it wasn't a big deal for a junior to hide a few Demonic Artifacts. The fact that the River Demons were able to coexist peacefully with the few Immortal Cities along the river in the Southern Heaven Realm for so long meant that the higher-ups must have reached some kind of consensus.
You can kill and fight the low-level warriors and river monsters as you please, as long as you don't implicate the higher-ups. As for those young martial artists with especially great potential, they might be taken care of a little. After all, that island was within the waters of the Southern Heaven Realm. Everything was being arranged.
Du Feng piloted the mechanical dragon and quickly arrived near the riverbank. Then, he put it away and went ashore himself.
"Eh, what a coincidence."
Interestingly, the moment he came ashore, he met the three patrolling guards again. He remembered that the first time he came to the Southern Heaven Realm, he also met the three of them. At that time, his ticket was checked. The second time was when he went to kill the Big Head Fish. He also met the three patrolling guards when he came ashore. He didn't expect to meet them again when he came ashore after completing the mission of the River Demon Island.
"Yeah, what a coincidence."
Du Feng also felt that it was quite interesting. Because the three patrolling guards patrolled a relatively large area, the chances of meeting them were not high. Moreover, they were only at the Heaven Immortal Realm Cultivation, while he was at the Golden Immortal Realm Cultivation. There was no problem of being followed. It could only be said that everyone was more fated. The three of them just happened to meet each other when they came ashore.
Tsk tsk tsk … Looking at Du Feng's back as he left, the three patrolling guards sighed from the bottom of their hearts. When this person first arrived at the North Shore Immortal City, he was a bit disheveled, and his Cultivation level was not as high as the three of them. Now, he was an expert at the Golden Immortal Realm, and he was very calm. He was no longer as disheveled as he was when he first arrived.
Fortunately, these patrolling guards belonged to the City Defense Department and not the North Yamen. Otherwise, Du Feng's whereabouts would be exposed again. He quickly returned to his basement in the ruins and took out the mission card. First, he threw a River Demon's Inner Core into the mission card.
"Hey, that person handed in the mission again."
The warehouse keeper on the shore immediately received the River Demon's Inner Core. Since it was a River Demon's Inner Core, it meant that he accepted that difficult mission.
"There are not many people who can come back alive from this mission. I wonder how many days he stayed on the island."
The other warehouse keeper was also curious about Du Feng's story.
"That's not difficult. Let me check when he accepted the mission."
Their leader was the smartest. He took out the mission book and checked the records. It would have been better if he hadn't checked, but he was dumbfounded. The mission that Du Feng had accepted was the latest batch of missions. If he remembered correctly, the latest batch of people who accepted the mission had not returned yet. To be precise, they should have just arrived or not yet arrived.
Because it took a certain amount of time to sail on the Heavenly River, they might not be able to find the River Demon immediately after reaching the shore. Moreover, even if they found the River Demon, they might not be able to come back alive. In fact, some of the warriors who came back alive didn't even know how they got out of the forest. They felt that they were released when their time was up.
Warriors who could withstand many rounds of assassination in the forest might be released, and they could also bring back a portion of the River Demon's Inner Core. But in the eyes of the two higher-ups, that didn't count as completing the mission, and it wasn't within their calculations. For example, that uncle with the Treasure Pagoda Technique was released.
This situation was too unusual. What method did Du Feng use to reach the River Demon Island so quickly? He started to submit the River Demon's Inner Core now. Did he submit it while fighting on the island, or did he return safely?
Because the Inner Core was preserved as soon as it was dug out, it was still relatively fresh for the time being. Therefore, the warehouse keeper couldn't tell if Du Feng himself was still on the island. If he was, then he was too crazy. What kind of lunatic would dig out the Inner Core to submit the mission while fighting?
