Because Du Feng and Huang Ying weren't famous before, not many people knew where they lived. Moreover, they slipped away rather quickly just now, so no one followed them. Therefore, the She Residence wouldn't be able to find them in a short time. But they weren't living in seclusion in the mountains, so the neighbors had seen them before.
As long as the She Residence was willing to search, they would be able to find where they lived sooner or later. If they really fought their way here, Huang Sheng wouldn't be able to hide.
"Don't worry, they won't be able to find this place for now."
Now that things had come to this, Huang Sheng had no choice but to reveal some of his strength. In fact, the people living in the surrounding single-story houses were all his men, including the few burly men with murderous intent who were digging their feet at the entrance of the alley.
Uh … as expected of a wily old fox. Du Feng already knew that Huang Sheng wasn't simple. After all, he was split from the Yellow Emperor, so how could he not be prepared at all? Du Feng even suspected that Huang Sheng's Cultivation was fake, or that he had purposely suppressed it to peak fifth revolution immortal emperor level nine.
But he didn't expect that he would be so exaggerated as to control the entire area. In other words, the nearby bungalows were all bought by Huang Sheng. It was just that he didn't use his name. It seemed like the Yellow Emperor had expected that he would die one day, so he had spent most of his wealth on Huang Sheng. It could also be said that the Yellow Emperor had treated Huang Sheng as his real body from the start, while he was just an accessory of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
"You've made this junior see you in a different light."
Du Feng couldn't help but exclaim after hearing this. Of course, Huang Sheng and Du Feng talked about this alone, so Huang Ying didn't hear it. Given this girl's personality, if she knew that her father had so much money, she would probably get cocky again.
Huang Sheng's house might not be as luxurious as a large family's mansion, but it wasn't any smaller than theirs. Most importantly, the surrounding terrain was rather complicated. If someone came looking for it, they would have to ask the surrounding neighbors.
But the neighbors were all Huang Sheng's people, so they wouldn't tell them the truth. When the time came, they would be ordered around, and they would definitely be confused. Huang Sheng had put in a lot of effort in order to reopen his empire in the True Immortal World.
"Brother Du, you're being too serious. Didn't we agree to address each other as equals?"
In any case, it was all thanks to Du Feng this time. Otherwise, even if Huang Sheng made more arrangements, it would be very troublesome this time. Because he couldn't show his face in public, otherwise, all his plans would be exposed. If the She Residence were to seriously oppose him, Huang Sheng would not have an easy time.
But now, it was different. Du Feng stepped forward to settle this matter. He was just a young man from another city. If he hid in the crowd, it would be difficult for others to find him. Moreover, he started from the height of justice and stepped on the moral high ground from the very beginning. Even if She Liejun returned, it would not be good for him to deal with him openly.
This time, Du Feng didn't stand on ceremony and accepted Huang Shengxin's ten bottles of Emperor Pills. That was thirty Emperor Pills, which was equivalent to taking up a permanent resident's quota for ten months. There was also some second-grade geng metal, which was also given to him this time.
Huang Sheng was so rich, and this Du Feng had saved his daughter. Of course, he had to get some compensation. This matter seemed simple, but if he didn't handle it well, he could lose his life.
There was another matter. Huang Sheng had also reimbursed Du Feng for the money he had used to hire the group of idlers through a middleman. It had to be said, it was all thanks to the loud voices of the idlers that they managed to gather the crowd.
These idlers didn't have any skills and were usually useless. But if they could be used appropriately, they could still be of great use.
"Brother, you have to be careful of this Huang Sheng."
Just as he returned to his room, the Wood Spirit girl reminded Du Feng to be careful of Huang Sheng.
"Mn, I'll be careful."
With regards to the Wood Spirit girl's words, Du Feng believed it a hundred percent. This was because the Wood Spirit girl was always thinking of him and would never harm him. Moreover, the Wood Spirit girl's perception was especially accurate. If she said there was a problem with Huang Sheng, then there was definitely a problem.
In fact, Du Feng also felt that Huang Sheng wasn't that trustworthy. Based on the fact that he even hesitated to save his daughter, this person was very likely to give up everything for his imperial ambitions, including betraying his friends.
If it wasn't for Du Feng jumping out to take the blame today, who knew how Huang Sheng would deal with it. Now that he had offended the She Residence, Du Feng might as well not go out for a while.
He was already halfway through studying the Emperor Pills, so he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he stayed in his room and focused on cultivating. In any case, with this batch of Emperor Pills from Huang Sheng, it was enough for him to last for a while. Just like that, Du Feng went into seclusion to cultivate, not even leaving his room.
This time, Huang Ying was well-behaved and didn't dare to disturb him again. After all, it was thanks to his help last time. When it came to facing evil people, she was still very inexperienced.
"I think this young man isn't bad. He's a good match for our Ying 'er."
Previously, Pu Xue already knew that Du Feng and Huang Ying were friends, and they were on good terms. However, after the incident at the She Residence, she found Du Feng more and more pleasing to the eye. She began to ponder about their marriage. If her daughter could marry such a partner, then she would be much more at ease.
"Yes, Brother Du is quite outstanding."
Although Huang Sheng agreed verbally, he obviously didn't take it to heart. This was because Pu Xue called him a young man, while he called him Brother Du. Psychologically, he felt that Du Feng and Huang Ying weren't a good match. It wasn't that he felt that Du Feng wasn't outstanding enough, but that Du Feng had too many secrets.
"Why, are you not willing?"
Pu Xue was very sensitive, especially when it came to her husband's attitude. Although Huang Sheng agreed verbally, he could still hear the problem from his tone.
"Don't be anxious, Madam. It's not enough for me to agree. The young man has to get along with himself."
Huang Sheng's words made some sense. Even if the two elders thought highly of him, it would be fine. Firstly, their daughter had to like Du Feng, and secondly, Du Feng had to like their daughter. As the saying went, a melon that was forcefully picked would not be sweet. They still needed to observe for a while.
"How about this, let's change places and let them stay in this house."
Pu Xue was quite thoughtful. She felt that the two elders were interfering with her daughter's relationship with Du Feng. If they were left here alone, they might be able to wipe out some sparks.
"Alright, it's up to you. Let's stay next door."
