"What are you looking at? Hurry up and take them away."
Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu was not stupid at all. He knew how to behave. He had gone around in circles to get the Poison Emperor drunk, so that Du Feng could take Canyang and Fu Yan away. In this way, the crisis in front of them was resolved without any bloodshed.
"Thank you!"
Du Feng cupped his fists and thanked Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu. Then, he left with Canyang and Fu Yan. Canyang spoke not long after they left.
"What do you think? Is my Senior Brother okay?"
Damn, so this kid was pretending to be drunk. He felt that he had drunk enough, so he pretended to be drunk so that he could save his strength for a fight. If Du Feng fought with the Poison Emperor, he would have the strength to fight. He couldn't be drunk like a soft-footed shrimp.
Speaking of soft-footed shrimps, Fu Yan was really drunk. However, he didn't look like a soft-footed shrimp. Instead, he was like a piece of mud lying on Du Feng's body.
"Your Senior Brother is really good. He spent a lot of money today."
The few of them drank from dawn to dusk. They had indeed drunk a lot. Besides, the Heaven Palace Wine was not cheap, so Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu must have spent a lot.
"Don't worry, he never needs to spend money when he drinks."
Okay, Du Feng was overthinking. Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu was in charge of the safety of the North Heaven Gate. In other words, he was in charge of the safety of the shops and residences in the northern area. Which restaurant would accept the money of such a powerful person?
"Do you know anything about the Drunken Immortal Restaurant?"
Du Feng remembered that Canyang had been living in the Heavenly Palace for a while, so he asked about the Drunken Immortal Restaurant.
"You mean the Drunken Immortal Restaurant? I heard that their boss is the Celestial Thearch, but I don't know the details."
Canyang had been in the Heavenly Palace for a while, but he wasn't an old resident. Moreover, even the old residents might not be able to figure out the ins and outs of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant.
The two of them carried Fu Yan back, chatting as they walked. Because this was within the Heavenly Palace, under normal circumstances, no one would dare to act rashly. Although it was already midnight, there shouldn't be any danger.
Not good! As Du Feng walked, he suddenly felt his eyebrows tighten, and a chill rose from the bottom of his heart. He instinctively condensed golden scales on his back to block the attack.
"How dare you!"
Canyang also reacted and rushed over, shooting a Canyang Finger at the back. But after pointing, he realized that there was nothing behind him.
Du Feng looked at the deep mark left on his golden scales. He was sure that it was not an illusion or an illusion. He was indeed ambushed. To launch a sneak attack within the territory of the Heavenly Palace, and not far from the Northern Heavenly Gate at that. This person was too bold.
The key problem was that after the sneak attack, he disappeared without a trace. Du Feng and Canyang, the two experts, couldn't find him.
The sneak attacker was very good at hiding, and he was very fast, but his attack power was average. This was also why his attack could be blocked by the golden scales. Of course, it was also thanks to the automatic defense of the golden scales. Otherwise, Du Feng's back would have been pierced.
"Could it be the Shadow Killer?"
Du Feng suddenly thought of a possibility. His concealment skills were top notch, and his attack power was average, which was in line with the characteristics of the Shadow Killer. But he had fought with the Shadow Killer many times in the Lower Realm, and finally became friends with the Shadow First Generation. Even the Shadow First Generation couldn't ascend to the Heavenly Realm. In theory, there shouldn't be any Shadow Killer in the Heavenly Palace.
Unless he was mistaken, the Shadow First Generation in the Lower Realm was actually not the Shadow First Generation.
"No way, I've never heard of a Shadow Killer in the Heavenly Realm."
Canyang didn't think it was possible, because he had heard of the Shadow Killer in the Lower Realm. But with the status of the Shadow Clan at that time, it couldn't be compared to their ancient family, so he didn't take it seriously. As for in the Heavenly Realm, he really hadn't seen any Shadow Killer, nor had he heard anyone mention it.
That was strange. He was obviously attacked just now, and the other party was invisible. It was too similar to the Shadow Killer.
Du Feng had already thought it through. It didn't matter if the other party was a Shadow Killer or not. As long as he dared to appear again, he would throw a lot of Night Pearls to illuminate the surroundings, leaving no shadows, and see where he could hide.
The ground in the Heavenly Palace was hardened, and the Earth Escape Technique couldn't be used at all. If it wasn't Shadow Escape, then what other concealment technique could it be?
Just like that, Du Feng and Canyang carried the drunk Fu Yan back carefully. As they walked, they had to be on guard against sneak attacks. Until the two of them walked back to their residence, they didn't encounter any other attacks. After returning home, they closed the door, and after activating the defensive formation, the two of them finally relaxed.
"Burp …"
As soon as Fu Yan was put on a chair, he burped, then opened his hazy eyes and looked at the two of them. He said casually, "What's wrong? Why are you two so nervous? Continue drinking."
After that, he fell into the chair and fell asleep. Seeing this, Du Feng was worried. He was so drunk that if he really encountered an attack, he wouldn't even know how he died. Du Feng really doubted whether Emperor Yan would accept him as a disciple.
Just after Canyang and Du Feng arrived home, Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu also did something. He grabbed a vague humanoid object and broke its neck with a little force. Then, he kneaded it in his hand a few times like kneading dough. A gray aura dispersed and then disappeared without a trace.
It was unknown whether he had caught the Shadow Killer committing a crime near the North Heavenly Gate, or if he was destroying the evidence.
The next day, Canyang told Du Feng and Fu Yan not to go out. He wanted to talk to Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu about this matter. After all, it happened near the North Heavenly Gate, which was under the jurisdiction of Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu.
"Were you attacked last night? I was too careless. If I had known, I would have sent you back."
Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu didn't mention that he had killed a Shadow Clan killer at all. Instead, he pretended to be very surprised. After all, there were very few attacks in the Heavenly Palace, especially near the North Heavenly Gate, which was under his jurisdiction. No one dared to cause trouble.
"That's not necessary. Senior Brother, you should be more careful. Don't let bad people sneak in."
Canyang gave them a simple reminder and then left. If bad people really sneaked in through the North Heavenly Gate, it would be a dereliction of duty for Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu. If the Shadow Killer killed the residents of the Heavenly Palace, then it would be a big deal. Immortal Emperor Zhen Wu would definitely have to bear part of the responsibility.
