That's right, the dignified Apocalypse Cannon, and a second rank Apocalypse Cannon at that, actually had times of misfiring. This matter made the Ximen Clan very embarrassed, because they were the suppliers.
After the goods had been delivered, the City Lord's Mansion gave them half of the money first. After the test was completed, they would be paid the other half. The first test went quite smoothly, and Ximen Zhi was smiling. But during the second test, one of the Apocalypse Cannons actually misfired, and his smile froze on his face.
"This …"
"These bastards from the Southern Heaven Realm are too black-hearted!"
Ximen Zhi reacted quite quickly, and quickly threw the blame to the Southern Heaven Realm. This was because the Ximen Clan's Apocalypse Cannons were bought from the Southern Heaven Realm. Since there was a problem now, it should be their problem.
The guard commander smiled. He didn't know what was going on. Perhaps, the people of the Ximen Clan had deliberately mixed a broken Heaven Opening Cannon among them in order to deceive them.
"What's going on, why didn't you guys test it before receiving it?"
Ximen Zhi was really quick to throw the blame. He had just thrown the blame to the Southern Heaven Realm's supplier, and now he was throwing it to his two daughters, blaming them for not testing the goods properly.
"We can't test it, we can't fire the cannons casually in the Southern Heaven Realm!"
Ximen Ziling and Ximen Baibai were scolded until they lowered their heads and did not speak, but the heroic female warrior could not bear to listen. She thought that the Ximen Clan Master's words were like farts, how could the Apocalypse Cannon be tested casually? Especially since the power of the second rank Apocalypse Cannon was so great, if every cannon was fired, how big of a commotion would it cause.
When they were purchasing goods in the Southern Heaven Realm, they were very secretive, afraid of being discovered. If they really fired a few cannons and caused such a big commotion, they would not be able to leave at all.
"You're just a maid, do you have the right to speak here?"
XiMen Zhi glared at him and put on the air of a clan head. He could not win against them in reasoning, so he began to use his status to suppress them.
"You have to be reasonable even if you're the Clan Master. Do you know how much risk the two ladies took for this batch of goods?"
"Your second and fourth brothers sent people to kill us on the way. We were already outside the city, but you didn't go to help us …"
The mouth of this heroic female martial artist was very fierce. She quickly narrated the matter and conveniently reprimanded Ximen Zhi. The scolding made his face turn red and pale, and he almost wanted to find a mouse hole to hide in.
"Rebel, rebel? If not for our Ximen Clan, you would be nothing but a fart. Get lost for me, hereafter you are not allowed to take half a step into Ximen clan. "
Ximen Zhi flew into a rage out of shame, and he wanted to drive this heroic female martial artist out of Ximen clan.
"Father, calm down. Don't bother with her."
Whitey Ximen had the best relationship with the heroic female martial artist, so he quickly went forward to plead for her.
"Don't worry about it. I'm going to kick her out today."
XiMen Zhi became even more spirited and insisted on chasing the heroic female martial artist away. Looking at his intention, not only did he want to expel this heroic female warrior from the Ximen clan, he also wanted to expel her from the Monster-repelling City. But now that they were surrounded by demonic beasts, going out was tantamount to courting death.
If she had known earlier that she would be expelled, she wouldn't have come here. An immortal city besieged by demonic beasts, it was as if anyone was willing to come here. The problem was, Ximen Zhi was the friend of the Monster-repelling City's city lord. If he wanted to expel this heroic female martial artist, the city guards would definitely not stop him.
When the heroic female martial artist saw that Whitey Ximen's persuasion was useless, and when she saw the awkward appearance of the city guards, she became so angry that her eyes turned red. In a fit of anger, she stomped her feet and planned to directly jump down from the city wall. If she was lucky, she could fly over the demonic beasts. If she was unlucky, she would encounter a flying ferocious beast and die for sure.
At this moment, a voice suddenly resounded, "Follow me, we will leave after we finish this match."
Hearing this, the heroic-looking female martial artist could no longer hold it in. Tears streamed down her face. That's right, the person who dared to say this was precisely Du Feng. Only Du Feng was familiar with her and was not afraid of offending Ximen Zhi.
More accurately speaking, not only was Du Feng not afraid of offending Ximen Zhi, he was also not afraid of offending the Monster-repelling City's city lord. If the city lord wanted to expel him to give Ximen Zhi face, then he would leave with the heroic female martial artist. With his own abilities, it would not be a problem for him to escape.
At the most, he could just give up on the rewards recorded in the book. Anyway, the karma had already been transferred to him, and no one could take that thing away.
"Nephew, you …"
Ximen Zhi did not want to fall out with Du Feng, but doing so was equivalent to slapping him in the face, causing him to lose face. The situation instantly became awkward. At this moment, the Liu Family Head spoke.
"Little friend Du, quickly help to repair that broken cannon. Don't blow up your own people."
"Hahaha, that's right, don't blow up my old bones."
The moment the Liu Family Head spoke, the Zhao Family Head, Qian Family Head, Ouyang Family Head, and many others all laughed.
"Alright, let me see if I can repair it."
Du Feng was indeed a formation master and knew how to draw talismans and inscriptions. But how did Old Liu know about this?
In fact, Old Liu also knew a little about formations. From the direction that Du Feng had chosen to break out of the encirclement, he could tell that this youth was definitely an expert in formations. Of course, those words just now were purely to help him find a way out of this awkward situation. As for whether or not Du Feng knew how to repair it, he was also clear.
"Excuse me, I need to borrow a needle."
If Du Feng wanted to repair the Heaven Opening Cannon, he needed a good enough Spirit Inscription Needle. Otherwise, he would not be able to carve the inscriptions on it. Thus, he could only thicken his skin and borrow needles from Old Zhao.
"Ah, aren't these three needles in my house flying needles?"
Only then did Old Zhao realize that the three long, red, translucent needles that he had been using as weapons were not hidden weapons or flying needles after all this time. From the looks of it, they were the Spirit Inscription Needles that he needed.
"Uh … they are indeed Spirit Inscription Needles. I originally wanted to buy one from you."
At this point, Du Feng could not continue to play dumb. He could only thicken his skin and borrow one. If Old Zhao was willing, he would sell one to him at the price of the Spirit Inscription Needle.
"I was wondering why it was a little awkward to use!"
In fact, using the Spirit Inscription Needle as a hidden weapon was not very smooth. However, Old Zhao was a traditional person and always felt that the things left behind by his ancestors should be put to good use. Thus, he practiced the flying needle technique all day, thinking that he was inheriting the will of his ancestors. He never imagined that the ancestors of the Zhao Family used these three needles to inscribe spirits.
