"Substitute Doll. If I had known, I would have prepared one for my son."
"Yeah, I should have prepared one for my daughter. It's not safe for girls to be outside."
When the parents heard that Shangguan Erchun had brought a substitute doll, they all began to discuss it. Of course, they knew what it was. They just didn't prepare it for their own children.
"Hmph, so what if he brought a Substitute Doll. That thing can be deceived for a while, but it can't be deceived forever. "
"Let me say, there is something fishy about this. Let your precious son explain. Otherwise, I won't be polite."
Shangguan Qingming originally wanted to help her son out. As for Du Feng's life or death, she didn't care. But the problem was that everyone was sure that Shanghai Erjun was also involved in this matter. Otherwise, how could he come back alive? A Substitute Doll could only die for its owner once. However, Star Emperor was able to kill Shanghai Erjun a hundred or even a thousand times. How did he come back alive? He indeed needed to explain.
"I … I don't know anything. I fainted at the time."
Shanghai Erjun didn't know how to explain. He was staring at the female Glorious Star Monarch's chest. Then, his vision turned black and he fainted. This was actually the truth. However, no one believed it. Fainting without knowing what to say was the simplest way to lie.
People didn't want to know the truth itself. They wanted to know the so-called truth that matched their own thoughts.
"Fainted? I think you are just pretending to faint. If fainting can save one's life, do you think my son won't? "
As expected, Shanghai Erjun's explanation couldn't satisfy the parents' demands. They started to collectively attack him. Shangguan Qingming was furious when she saw her son's anxious face turn red. However, no matter how overbearing she was, she couldn't be enemies with all the parents. After all, they had a bunch of God Emperor experts on their side.
"Du Feng, Du Feng, quickly tell them that I am telling the truth."
Shangguan Erjun was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. He really did not know how to explain, so he asked Du Feng for help.
However, as soon as Du Feng opened his mouth, Shangguan Erjun was shocked. "I don't know whether or not Young Master Shangguan fainted. I was fighting a few Brilliant Star Kings at that time."
What did he mean? Not only did Shanghai Erjun not understand, but the parents who came to question him also didn't understand. He was obviously trying to make Shangguan Erjun the handsome scapegoat. You're just a guest official. If Shangguan Erjun can't be saved, then don't even think about living.
"There are many suspicious points in this mission. Don't you think it's strange?"
Du Feng began to speak with fervor and assurance, starting from the time when Shanghai Erjun had accepted a mission and asked him to go out and chat with him. First of all, he was a guest and couldn't accept a mission alone, so he didn't know where he was going and what mission he was going to do, let alone who was there. He didn't even know where he was going, so how did he scheme against the descendants of the Primordial Gods.
Saying that Du Feng was colluding with the Constellation Army didn't make sense from this point, because he had no way of arranging the destination. Even if it was premeditated, Shangguan Erjun had to be involved. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to teleport over.
"En, that makes sense. Continue."
When Shangguan Qingming heard this, she wanted to interrupt, but the other parents all felt that it made sense and let him continue. Just like that, Du Feng had completely cleared himself and dragged Shangguan Erjun into it. He had to drag Shangguan Erjun into it, otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to continue.
"When the two of us arrived, there were about a hundred Brilliant Star Kings at the scene. One of them had a pair of eagle eyes. His speed was extremely fast and his strength was very strong. He killed many of the trapped people in an instant. "
When Du Feng talked about the Eagle Eyes Brilliant Star King, there were parents who immediately became interested. Because from the sound of it, he didn't sound like a normal Brilliant Star King. A normal Brilliant Star King wouldn't look like that, nor would he have such great strength.
"At that time, we could have turned and left, but Shangguan Gongzi insisted on saving people."
Just now, Du Feng even dragged Shangguan Erjun into the water. Suddenly, he changed the topic and started praising him, saying that he wanted to save people. Because in a situation where a hundred Brilliant Star Kings surrounded twenty Celestial Realm members, he should have escaped first to save his own life. At most, he could just come back to report.
"If that's the case, why didn't you guys send a distress signal?"
A parent of the deceased raised his doubt. Why didn't Du Feng and the rest send a distress signal so that Jincheng could send experts over?
"At that time, the distress signal was blocked. In order not to delay things, Shangguan Gongzi decided to come back to report personally. I stayed here to observe."
Du Feng changed the topic again and said that Shangguan Erjun came back to report. But those who understood immediately knew that he wanted to escape. In the outside world, especially in the endless void where one couldn't tell the direction, using the shrine to teleport was the fastest and most effective method.
"Yes, yes, yes. I wanted to come back to ask for help. Those who were trapped are all my good friends of many years."
Shangguan Erjun also hurriedly explained. Because at that time, he wanted to use the shrine to teleport away and didn't bring Du Feng along. In the end, he was restricted by the formation and was thrown into the encirclement.
"You …"
Shangguan Qingming looked at her son helplessly. It was already too late to save or stop him. Actually, what Shangguan Erjun said meant that he wanted to escape at that time. Furthermore, he abandoned Du Feng and escaped by himself.
"Then why didn't you come back to report?"
A parent in the crowd who was more familiar with Shangguan Qingming changed the topic.
In the end, Shangguan Erjun didn't know how to answer. He looked at Du Feng with a pleading gaze.
"It's like this. At that time, there was a formation set up around us, so we didn't know. In the end, Young Master Shangguan was trapped."
With Du Feng's explanation, Shangguan Erjun hurriedly said yes, yes, yes. That was exactly what happened. At that time, he wanted to come back to report, but he was inexplicably sucked in.
"I saw that Young Master Shangguan was surrounded, so I attacked the Constellation Great Army from the outside and cooperated with everyone to resist."
Hearing this, everyone felt that Du Feng was very loyal. Because he was on the outside, he could have sneaked away. At most, he would just remove his guest elder status and never come to Gold City again. One must know that fighting with over a hundred Brilliant Star Kings was an extremely terrifying thing.
Without waiting for anyone to ask, Du Feng continued, "The battle at that time was very difficult, but we fought pretty well."
He recounted how he killed many Brilliant Star Kings. If he said it before, no one would believe him. But, he had defeated that peak ninth level World King patriarch in a single move just now, so his words were somewhat believable.
"Then why did everyone die in the end? How did they die?"
