He had already tried his best, but in the end, he could only protect a few of his friends. As for the matter of fighting against the Constellation Army, he needed the main city's higher-ups to do it. Without them, he couldn't do it alone, and there was no need for him to do it.
Just as Du Feng's shrine was set up, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. The main city's walls returned to their original positions, and the moat was still outside the city walls. The destroyed ground was restored to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
The only problem was that the shrines that had stood tall before were all gone, as the God Generals and God Soldiers had all left.
Eh? Just as Du Feng thought that the surroundings would be empty for a long time, a shrine suddenly appeared from the side. Then a second, third, fourth … New shrines kept appearing, and their positions were all arranged according to their ranks.
What was going on? Didn't those people already leave for the endless void? Where did these shrines come from?
Du Feng paid special attention to see if Xiao Hei's position was occupied by a shrine. What was especially mysterious was that Xiao Hei, the Dragon Emperor, East Deity, Zhuang Biisi, and the others' positions were all unoccupied. This meant that they could hide in the small world of the necklace and not be discovered by the Star Generals, but they couldn't hide from the detection of the Divine Realm.
Since they had reserved their shrines for them, it meant that they knew they were still in the Divine Realm. The Divine Realm was definitely stronger than imagined. This was also why Du Tulong persuaded Du Feng to stay in the Divine Realm. Although the main city's higher-ups were holed up and not coming out to fight against the Constellation Army, it didn't mean that the Divine Realm was afraid of them.
From Du Feng's point of view, this was very likely a kind of trade. Actually, the Divine Realm felt that there were too many people. After all, their resources were limited. So they purposely eliminated a group of people to make a living in the endless void. Perhaps this was a farce that the higher-ups of the Divine Realm conspired with the higher-ups of the Constellation Army to eliminate the lowly people.
Not including those who were eliminated, or the Star Soldiers and Star Generals, they were just pawns in the game. Luckily, Du Feng didn't fall for it.
"You will all have your own positions, right?"
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Du Feng had Xiao Hei, the Dragon Emperor, and the others set up camp in their temples. What followed would be a brand new life, and the surrounding area would still be filled with residents. Not only were there many people living in the main city, but there were also new people coming to the outside of the city.
Among these newcomers, there would definitely be people like Du Feng who would rise rapidly. As for those who progressed too slowly, they would be eliminated sooner or later.
Huh? Du Feng originally thought that they would be newcomers, but he found that a few of his old neighbors had also returned. These people's Cultivation Levels were not low, around Level Eight or Level Nine Divine General Realm. They were very cunning and took advantage of the chaos to sneak out. He did not join the Constellation Army, nor did he participate in the battle. He waited until everything was over before sneaking back.
"Bro, you're awesome."
"Yeah, it's really awesome."
Although these people were hiding, they still knew about the battle between Du Feng and Blue Emperor. In the past, when the Constellation Army invaded, everyone would either admit defeat and hide, or simply join the Constellation Army. Only this time, Du Feng dared to come out and fight them head-on, and he even won.
"It's nothing. It's nothing."
Du Feng chuckled as he answered them, but he was actually cursing in his heart. He thought that these old things were too cunning. When fighting, they all slipped away faster than the other. Now that everything was settled, they all shamelessly came back to suck up to him. However, the more shameless they were, the longer they lived.
They knew that the conditions in the Immortal World were better, but they did not want to offend the Constellation Army, so they chose to hide during the chaos. When the Constellation Army left, they returned to the Immortal World to enjoy their lives. These people were all Level Eight or Level Nine Divine General Realm Cultivation Levels. In a few years, they might be able to advance to the God King Realm, and then they could truly enjoy their lives.
"Boss, is our shop still open?"
After the previous battle, the previous shop had been destroyed. Fortunately, Manager Zhuang had already packed up the goods. Therefore, he came to ask Du Feng if the shop should continue to be open.
"Of course, we'll continue to operate as we should."
Du Feng was right. The new batch of people definitely needed to cultivate. If they still needed to cultivate, they definitely needed to buy elixirs and weapons. Because the previous battle had changed the situation, it was actually beneficial to the development of his shop.
However, he soon realized that the previous pharmacy, weapon shop, bookstore, grocery store, and so on were rapidly reopening for business. This was because those who could open a shop in the city all had some connections. Basically, they were the relatives of some big shot.
During the previous disaster, they all went into hiding. Now that the disaster was over, they all came out to continue making money. As long as people did not die, they had to continue making money. Otherwise, even if they did not die, they would die of poverty.
"Take a look, take a look. Our shop is having a promotion. All goods are 10% off."
"Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle axes, hooks, forks. All kinds of weapons are available. Don't miss this opportunity."
After the disaster, many shops actually organized promotions to attract customers. Because most of the residents were new and did not understand the situation here, they needed to attract customers and compete.
"Boss, are we also organizing promotions?"
Manager Zhuang was afraid that his business would be snatched away by others. Therefore, he came to ask for Du Feng's opinion.
"Remove all the low-grade elixirs from the shelves and increase the price by 10%."
In the end, Du Feng did not take the normal route. Not only did he not organize promotions, but he also wanted to increase the price. His shop did not sell low-grade Star God Pills and low-grade Scarlet Pills. Anyway, those things did not have high profits. Moreover, he had to guard against malicious competition. He decided to go for the high-end route. Not only did he not reduce the price, but he also increased the price.
This way, the profit per item was higher, and he could reduce the workload. Du Feng was busy cultivating and did not have that much free time to refine elixirs all day. As for East Thearch, let him have a good rest. If he could not refine middle-grade elixirs, he might as well use his time to cultivate.
"Alright."
Since it was Boss Du's order, Manager Zhuang could only obey. Because he only sold expensive items, the shop's business was definitely not as good as before. Not only him, but even Zhuang Yingying and the flirtatious woman felt a little disappointed. The only good thing was that they all had a lot of free time.
