"Why … Why are you here?"
The partner didn't react. He was stunned at first, wondering why Du Feng was here. Did he also find out that the Dragon Emperor had embezzled money and was here to catch him?
"Hehe, why do you think I'm here?"
Du Feng smiled. He wasn't in a hurry to make a move. With his strength, it would be too easy for him to kill the person in front of him. There was another reason why he wasn't in a hurry to make a move. The other side was fighting. He didn't want to save Young Master Dongfang. It would be best if both sides were injured.
In fact, this was quite good. The partner and the Dongfang family would fight each other.
"You … You know everything!"
The partner wasn't too stupid. He finally realized what was going on. Since Du Feng was here, and it was such a coincidence, there could only be two reasons. Either he found out about the Dragon Emperor and their behavior, or he deliberately arranged for the Dragon Emperor to do this.
From Du Feng's behavior, it was obviously the latter. They thought they were very smart. Now they realized that everything was within Wang Yao's calculations.
"Can you spare my life? I can make up for my mistake."
His survival instinct was quite strong. He didn't want to be killed like this. Because they were in the woods outside the Sacred City, it was too easy for Du Feng to kill him, and there would be no consequences. He was originally a guard living under someone else's roof. He finally got an official identity in the Sacred City. He really didn't want to die like this.
"Then hand it over."
Du Feng crooked his finger. His meaning was obvious. He wanted him to hand over all the money he had embezzled. The man was quite straightforward. He quickly took off his storage ring and threw it over.
"Is that all? There should be more."
Du Feng looked at the things inside. These were not the only things they had embezzled.
"Yes, yes, yes, and …"
The partner was so scared that his mouth was trembling. He hurriedly took out the storage rings he had hidden on his body, and there was even a close-fitting cloth bag. This cloth bag didn't have any internal space. It was just an ordinary bag. It was probably saved for him to save his life.
Du Feng counted the items inside and estimated the number of losses in the shop. It seemed to be a little more than he had imagined. There was nothing strange about this. After all, he had some assets of his own.
"Are you letting me go now?"
Seeing that Du Feng wasn't angry, the partner felt that there was still hope for him to survive.
"There's another question I want to ask you. Back then, I recruited you as a guard and gave you the identity of a resident of the Holy City. Why did you choose to betray me? Was it because I didn't give you enough money?"
Du Feng shrugged, indicating that he should calm down and speak slowly. If it was reasonable, he could consider letting him go.
But my partner hesitated for a long time and only said, "I … I …"
He really couldn't think of any other reason. It really seemed like it was just for the money. Originally, he wanted to make up a lie, saying that he had old people to take care of and a sick wife to take care of. In short, any reason that could gain sympathy could be used.
But thinking about it, none of this could fool Du Feng. When he was chosen to be a guard, he had already explained everything. His parents were long gone, he had never married, and he had no children. There was no such thing as having old people to take care of and a sick wife. If he wasn't married, how could he have a wife?
"When you did this, didn't you think about the consequences? Did you think that I wouldn't come back?"
Even Du Feng was worried for him. Before you do something, you should at least think of a way out. If I come back, how are you going to escape or find an excuse?
"No, it's mainly because you came back too soon, and we weren't ready."
This partner was telling the truth. They usually spent their money too comfortably after they made it, so they really didn't think about this problem carefully. Originally, they wanted to frame the Dragon Emperor, but later, the Dragon Emperor became their accomplice. Now, it seemed that what the Dragon Emperor did was actually arranged by Du Feng.
Then who should they frame? Should they blame Chen Tianlei and Arré? Those two Beastmen were not smart at all. At most, they could say that they lost money due to poor management. But the embezzlement of money really couldn't be blamed on them. In fact, they still didn't know about this matter.
"Then, are you ready now?"
Du Feng looked at the partner. After all, he was the one who had been handpicked by him, so he gave him some time to prepare.
"Prepare for what?"
The partner was still a little confused. He thought, Since you already found out, what else do I have to prepare for? He was thinking about how to continue making up excuses when he suddenly felt a chill on his neck. He couldn't help but reach out to touch it.
That's not right. Why can't I feel my hand? I want to raise it, but my hand doesn't listen to me. So he wanted to lower his head to see what happened to his hand. In the end, he heard a thud, and a big head fell to the ground.
In fact, when Du Feng asked him if he was ready, he was asking if he was ready to die, giving him some time to mentally prepare.
Unfortunately, he didn't have time to react, because Du Feng's attack was too fast. He didn't even see the shadow of the sword before his head was removed. How could Du Feng let go of such an ungrateful person who bullied and framed the Dragon Emperor? He was just worried that he would hide the money somewhere else, so he asked first.
Since he had it with him, what was there to hesitate about? Of course, he would kill him and take everything away. Not only did he take away his things, but he also imprisoned his soul.
After doing all this, Du Feng looked at the other partner. This person had already started to go crazy because he was injured by a tool in Young Master Dongfang's hand. This tool was very interesting. It looked like a pen holder, but in fact, it hid a short crossbow arrow.
Although the crossbow arrow was very short, it was extremely fast and impossible to guard against. Young Master Dongfang's Cultivation was low, so he couldn't beat him in the end, so he used the crossbow arrow to injure his arm.
Now that the two of them were fighting to the extreme, Young Master Dongfang knew that he couldn't win, so he planned to find a chance to call for help from his family. As long as the family rushed over, everything would be fine. But how could his partner give him such a chance? He closed in step by step, and the sword in his hand never left his body.
"Hai!"
The desire to survive gave birth to explosive power. In the end, the injured partner exploded with great strength and stabbed Young Master Dongfang's heart. At the same time, a pendant on Young Master Dongfang's neck lit up.
As expected, how could such a young master not be prepared? That pendant was definitely planning to protect his soul and then fly back to the Holy City to resurrect. At the same time, it would also record the enemy's appearance.
