Seeing the pseudo-divine beasts smashing over, the Immemorial Void Worm couldn't help but open its mouth to bite and eat them. This was something it couldn't overcome. Du Feng fed it one by one until it couldn't eat anymore. After a period of time, the pseudo-mythological beasts turned into grains of Time Sand.
Since it was full, it was time to kill the fat pig. Du Feng killed the Immemorial Void Worm with one sword strike. 108 grains of Time Sand were obtained without a hitch. One hundred and seven of them were small, and only one was big. Because the big one was the original Time Sand, the remaining 107 were fed later and hadn't formed for a long time. After a long time, they would fuse into the big one.
Tsk tsk tsk … I finally got it. The Time Sand was really hard to come by. In order to strengthen his spatial ability, Du Feng was really going all out. He hadn't had time to go back after so many years.
Frankly speaking, he was a little tired after drifting in the endless void for so long. It wasn't his body that was tired, but his heart. He didn't use the voice transmission talisman to contact his friends and directly used the shrine to teleport back. Once his shrine returned to the Holy City, it was stationed together with Xiao Hei's shrine.
The size of the courtyard suddenly expanded, and everyone knew that the Du Family's Patriarch had returned.
"Brother Du, you're finally back. Recently, the shop has been suffering heavy losses. I don't know what's going on."
"Yes, the old Dragon Emperor said that he's unwell and doesn't help with the bookkeeping anymore."
When Chen Tianlei saw Du Feng return, he hurriedly went forward to report the situation. He didn't know how to do business or bookkeeping, but he knew that the money he was getting was getting less and less. Since the money he was getting was getting better and better, it was definitely a loss.
"Is that so? Let me ask him first."
When Du Feng heard this, his expression changed. With his business model, how could it be losing money? There must be a problem with the internal management. The Dragon Emperor was an old acquaintance. How could he resign all of a sudden? There must be a reason behind it. Could it be that he had fallen out with Chen Tianlei and Arré?
He hadn't thought that it was because of the partners he had promoted. After all, those two partners were just guards. They shouldn't have the guts to exclude the Dragon Emperor.
When he saw Du Feng return, the Dragon Emperor burst into tears and said, "Brother Du, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry."
His crying confused Du Feng. What was going on? Could it be that the Dragon Emperor had embezzled money? Impossible. If he wanted it, he could just take it. There was no need for him to be corrupted. Moreover, with his Cultivation, it would not consume too many resources.
"Don't cry. Tell me slowly what happened. I don't care about the money. I just want to make things clear. "
Du Feng comforted the Dragon Emperor. The Dragon Emperor's body was not as good as it used to be. It seemed that he had been depressed for the past few years. He had been hunting in the Endless Void for a few years. What had happened? Why was everyone so strange?
In the past, even if he had been in seclusion for a few years or more, it felt like it had passed in the blink of an eye. This time, after going to the Endless Void, why had he changed so much? Du Feng even suspected that he had fallen into the space-time turbulence. Why did it feel like he had been away for thousands of years? The Dragon Emperor had aged.
Because it involved the two brothers, Chen Tianlei and Arré, the Dragon Emperor was embarrassed at first. He knew that Chen Tianlei had followed Du Feng to fight all over the place. He had suffered a lot and made a lot of contributions. Cultivation had also improved rapidly. This matter was not caused by the two of them. They had been fooled by their partners and unknowingly became partners.
If it was investigated seriously, the two of them would not be able to escape responsibility. That was why the Dragon Emperor was in a difficult position. He did not want to destroy the relationship between Du Feng and his brothers. That would make him seem too despicable. That was why he had resigned.
"It's okay. Tell me everything. Start with the boss. Even if you lose all your money, it's okay. You must tell me the truth. "
Du Feng reminded the Dragon Emperor again. He had to repeat everything in full detail. He could not leave anything out. As for whose problem it was, he would naturally have the right judgment after listening. He could tell if it was intentional or if he had been deceived.
"Okay then. I have to start from when you left a few years ago …"
Next, the Dragon Emperor repeated everything. At that time, Du Feng had gone to the Endless Void to hunt. Xiao Hei had eaten and slept. He had not woken up since then. After such a long time, only the two brothers, Chen Tianlei and Arré, were left to manage the business.
They did not know anything. They only knew how to fight and practice all day long. Their strength had grown quite fast. However, there was a problem with the business accounts. The Dragon Emperor found that there was something wrong with the accounts, so he reported it to them. But the problem was that the two brothers did not understand. They felt that the Dragon Emperor was worrying for nothing.
Because the two partners were very shrewd. At the beginning, they had secretly made money. Although they embezzled in other areas, they gave enough to Chen Tianlei and Arré. Although the Dragon Emperor was Du Feng's old friend, he was not an official resident of the Sacred City. His Cultivation level was not high enough, so he could not interfere.
Later, the business earned less and less money. The problem was very obvious. But Chen Tianlei and Arré still received enough money. So the two brothers felt that there was no problem. In business, profits and losses were normal. The main reason was that the rest of the guards had been bought over by the two partners. They all spoke up for them.
With Chen Tianlei and Arré's brains, they did not know how to do business. Since they said so, it must be true. Anyway, when their brother Du came back, everything would be settled.
In fact, they did not know that at this time, the business had begun to lose money. Later, the dividends he received also decreased. They also knew that the business was really failing. At this time, a lot of business had been taken away by others. They could not do anything. Moreover, the surrounding guards and partners all blamed the Dragon Emperor, saying that he did not manage the business well and caused losses.
Chen Tianlei and Arré knew that the Dragon Emperor was an old friend of their brother Du. They did not want to make things difficult for him. They could only play the good guy for both sides. But the Dragon Emperor could not stand it. So, he asked to resign.
"Have you investigated whether they are close to those shops?"
Du Feng was very smart. As soon as he heard that, he knew that someone was secretly playing tricks. If it were only the two partners, they would not be so bold. Even if they used the weapons and pills in the warehouse, they would not be able to sell them. Since they had done such a big thing, they must have colluded with outsiders. Moreover, the people who colluded with them must know this business.
"I have investigated. This time, it should be related to the Chunyu family and the Dongfang family."
The Dragon Emperor nodded. He deeply admired Du Feng's wisdom.
