"Okay, I know what to do."
Du Feng originally wanted to go to Demon Repelling City, and he wanted to teleport directly from East Immortal City to a city in the middle, and then teleport to Demon Repelling City from there. But now it seemed that things might change. Because of the special structure of the Apocalypse Cannon, ordinary storage rings couldn't store it.
The second stage Apocalypse Cannon was even more advanced, even the small world of the necklace might not be able to contain it. It was precisely because of this that it needed to be transported in a warehouse. Otherwise, any random martial artist with a storage ring would be able to sneak it back.
"I thank you on behalf of all the people of Demon Repelling City."
Ximen Ziling thanked Du Feng, then pushed the door open and left. When she walked to the door, she wiped the sweat from her forehead. She wiped the sweat away, but her face was still red because she was too nervous when she set sail.
This series of actions fell into her sister's eyes. But White Ximen didn't say anything, just quietly huddled in the corner. There was always a price to pay to ask Du Feng for help. Maybe her sister was braver.
The Ximen family wasn't as powerful as they thought, at least they didn't have an immortal lord. To establish a foothold in East Heaven Realm, they mainly relied on doing business to make money. They used enough money to bribe various forces and hire experts to protect them.
For example, Uncle Luo was hired by the Ximen family at a high price. Because the elders needed to guard the headquarters, they couldn't go out on missions. The burden of this mission fell on the shoulders of Ximen Ziling and Baibei. If they succeeded, it would be a great contribution. If they failed, their status in the Ximen family would definitely fall. It was uncertain whether he would be able to return alive.
Du Feng still didn't know that he was misunderstood. He just sat there quietly, thinking about how much of Ximen Ziling's words were true and how much was false.
There was a second stage Apocalypse Cannon in the warehouse, this should be true. If not, Ximen Ziling wouldn't be so nervous that her palms were sweating. Although she could force it to sweat, that kind of nervousness couldn't be faked.
As for saying that it was for the benefit of the common people of North Refuse City, it was a half-truth. Perhaps, the people of North Refuse City happened to buy it from the Ximen Clan at a high price.
Of course, the Apocalyptic Cannon wasn't something that just anyone could buy. North Refusing City was far from the Southern Heaven Realm, and they didn't have much interaction. Even if they had the money, they couldn't buy it. The City Governor of North Refusal City was just a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven. If they wanted to resolve the crisis of being besieged by the demonic beasts, they had to seek help from the outside world.
The reason why the Eastern Heaven Realm was getting weaker and weaker was because there was no real ruler and no one to allocate resources. North Defense City was besieged by the demon beasts. Only the city guards could fight back. Once it was breached, the commoners would at most put up some resistance.
Because North Rejection City was a level 3 immortal city, there was no immortal city above it that they could rely on, so they couldn't get any reinforcements. Its subordinate immortal cities were even weaker and couldn't help at all. Now that the Ximen Clan had smuggled the Heaven Opening Cannon, they would definitely make a fortune. If the business was successful, the status of the Ximen sisters would definitely rise to a new height.
As for why the higher-ups didn't come this time, but let the two sisters take the risk. Other than their familiarity with the Southern Heaven Realm, it was also a signal that the two of them could be sacrificed. At the critical moment, they could sacrifice their lives.
Otherwise, why didn't their uncle, Ximen Zhuyi, let his own son come. It was obvious that it was too dangerous, and he was afraid that his son would die on the way.
In fact, the Ximen sisters understood this very well, which was why they asked Du Feng for help. They knew that Du Feng was very capable. He didn't die in such a dangerous situation last time. However, they were still a little worried about Du Feng's Cultivation. After all, being able to fight against a Heaven Celestial when he was an Earth Celestial didn't mean that he could fight against a Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven when he was a Golden Celestial.
Of course, no one knew that Du Feng had already broken through to the Golden Celestial of the Great All-Embracing Heaven, and was already in the middle stage of level 2. The purpose of his trip this time was to go to Demon Rejecting City. Then, he would leave Demon Rejecting City and head straight to the Demon Realm further north.
"Rumble …"
When Du Feng was thinking about the problem, the hull suddenly shook. He immediately probed it with his Divine Sense and found that a fishing boat had crashed into it. Because it was an ordinary fisherman's fishing boat, the hull was relatively small and didn't cause much damage to Tianchang.
"Sorry, our boat is out of control, I'm really sorry."
The boatman hurriedly explained that their fishing boat was out of control. Just now, it was held by a big fish and couldn't turn, so it crashed into it.
"Hurry up and get out of here, or else I'll kill you."
The guards on Tianchang were all Golden Celestial Realm Martial Artists this time. They were all very fierce and directly told the people on the fishing boat to get out of here, or else they would blow up the boat. But there was a problem with the fishing boat, it seemed that the propeller was entangled in a fishing net and couldn't get rid of it.
"Scram!"
The captain of the guards on the boat couldn't wait any longer and threw a big fireball down, directly blowing the fishing boat into pieces. The frightened fishermen quickly jumped into the water and planned to swim back by themselves. Anyway, it was not too far from the shore. As long as they weren't attacked by water monsters, swimming back would not be a problem.
"What are you waiting for? Kill them all."
The captain of the guards had already gone too far, blowing up the fishing boat. But Ximen Ziling suddenly appeared on the deck and ordered them to kill all the fishermen. Who knew whether these fishermen were real or fake, and who knew whether they were here to spy on the situation?
"Yes, sir!"
After receiving the order, the captain of the guards signaled for the guards to raise the golden crossbows in their hands. The biggest feature of this kind of crossbow was that it had a very long range. And the crossbow used was very heavy, so it wouldn't be easily blown askew by the wind. There were no buildings on the surface of the Sky River, so the wind was still very strong.
"No, Miss, you can't kill the innocent."
Just as the guards were about to shoot, the heroic female Martial Artist ran out. She saw the fishermen swimming in the water in a panic. They were already in a sorry state, so why did they have to be killed? They were just some poor people who worked hard to earn money and wanted to make a living. How could they kill people just because of a misunderstanding?
"Get out of the way!"
Although Ximen Ziling was gentle when she leaned on Du Feng, she was a model of ruthlessness at times like this. She would be very vigilant if there was even the slightest movement. Because there was absolutely no room for mistakes in this operation.
