"Everyone come and take a look, President Chung has already caught the murderer."
"President Chung, this person should be your residence's manservant, is he sent by you or not?"
Du Feng was really interesting, he had just shouted that President Chung hired a murderer, then he said that President Chung had caught the murderer and even asked if he was sent by him. These two questions were contradictory. Then whether President Chung was a good or bad person, only he himself could answer.
"I …"
President Chung was a little dazed by Du Feng's question and didn't know how to answer for a moment. If he said that he was the one who sent the murderer, then he was the one who hired the murderer. But if he said that he was not the one who sent the murderer, then he was the one who caught the murderer, which meant that he was here to help Du Feng. But his original intention was to harm Du Feng.
After being shouted at by Du Feng, President Chung really didn't know how to choose for a moment.
Most importantly, he was usually very concerned about his own reputation. Now that he was surrounded by so many people, he couldn't lose his face.
President Chung calmed down and thought, something's not right, why should I answer according to his prescribed routine. Shouldn't he be the one who killed my residence's manservant and was caught red-handed by me?
Right, this should be the correct routine, this should be the way to answer. President Chung wanted to explain but in the end, Du Feng spoke again.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding, so President Chung knew that this person was up to no good, so he specially came to save me and even brought the city's guards. Our guild's concern for Pill Masters is really witnessed by heaven and earth. "
Without waiting for President Chung to explain, Du Feng explained on his behalf. What he said was clear and logical, so President Chung couldn't help but nod his head. The Pill Master Guild indeed attached great importance to Pill Masters. But after nodding his head, he felt that something was wrong. Wouldn't that be admitting that the manservant was here to assassinate him?
"No …"
President Chung still wanted to explain, but he felt that it was not the right time to do so. If he were to deny it now, it would be equivalent to denying the importance the Alchemist Guild had towards Pill Masters, especially towards high levelled Pill Masters.
At that moment, he noticed that Du Feng was holding something in his hand. That thing turned out to be an image crystal, which was used to record images of the scene. The scene where the manservant and the assassin attacked Du Feng was probably recorded by him.
If President Chung were to bite back and say that the servant was framed and that Du Feng was the one who killed him first … This was equivalent to admitting that the manservant was his man. If Du Feng were to play the contents of the Image Crystal, his reputation would be completely ruined. He might as well beat him at his own game and say that he was rushing over to save Du Feng.
"That's right, our Alchemist Guild holds all the Pill Masters in high regard. Even the people in my mansion are not allowed to be disrespectful to Alchemists. "
Saying that, he stretched out his hand and broke the manservant's neck. Earlier he was the one who used a healing pill to help the manservant stop the bleeding on his chest. Now he actually made a move personally and killed the people in his own mansion.
When Du Feng saw this, his pupils shrunk and he kept the Image Crystal. Looks like this President Chung was really a ruthless character. He changed his face really quickly.
"That's right, we all saw it. This person was disrespectful to Pill Master Du and must be punished on the spot."
The city defence guards by the side also followed suit when they saw the situation. The original plan was for the manservant to bring the assassin to attack Du Feng and if it didn't succeed, they would let the City Lord's mansion arrest Du Feng in the name of injuring someone. It could be said to be a double insurance.
But they didn't expect that with just a few words from Du Feng, the situation was turned around. Now not only had President Chung's subordinate died for nothing, he even had to put in a good word for Du Feng.
"See, I said it was a misunderstanding. President Chung said that he would give me a house, how could he go back on his words."
Pfft … Mo Ziren couldn't help but spurt out. Even at this time, his brother Du was still thinking about a house. That so-called giving him a house was actually an excuse to trick him out. He didn't expect Du Feng to really want it.
Not only did Du Feng really want it, he even took out the Image Crystal when he said that.
What did he mean? Could it be that when the manservant promised to give him a house, it was also recorded by Du Feng with the Image Crystal? This guy was too careful, why didn't he get rid of him earlier? Now that the residents were watching, he had no choice but to agree.
"Yes, yes, yes. I represent the Alchemist Guild to give Pill Master Du a house. It's just a small token of my respect." President Chung braced himself and agreed. But in his heart, he was fuming with anger. But he had no choice. Du Feng was too cunning.
Du Feng chuckled and kept the Image Crystal. Then, he said, "President Chung treated me very well in Sword Dragon City. It's a blessing for us alchemists to have such a president."
He purposely brought up the matter of President Chung in Sword Dragon City to give people the wrong impression that President Chung might not be from the Holy Dragon City. But he had brought the guards of the City Lord's Mansion with him. It was a little complicated.
But the higher-ups of the City Lord's Mansion weren't of one mind. It was normal for them to be divided into many factions.
In short, Du Feng took the opportunity to get out of danger and successfully got a house.
But that was a house arranged by President Chung. Did he dare to live in it? Du Feng really dared to live in it. Not only did he dare to live in it, he even brought a few friends over.
Draconis, Dragon Emperor, and Mo Ziren followed Du Feng over. Yang Wei and Lady Yangliu were left with the female array master.
Actually, Du Feng's original intention was to bring Draconis and Dragon Emperor over. Mo Ziren, Yang Wei, and Lady Yangliu were left with the female array master. But Mo Ziren insisted on living with them. So he could only let him move in.
Sigh, brother, looks like I can't help you.
In fact, Du Feng understood very well that Mo Ziren's chances were originally higher. Now that Lady Yangliu and Yang Wei were left alone, it would be easy to develop feelings for them.
But everyone had their own choices. Du Feng couldn't force them.
The house given by President Chung was nothing to be afraid of. Anyway, the deed was already in Du Feng's hands. After he got the house, the first thing he did was to check the array formations inside. Although President Chung was the Vice President of the Alchemist Association, he would definitely set up many array formations in the house to monitor them.
As expected, Du Feng soon found an array formation in the new house. Some were used to monitor them. Some were used to confuse them. There was even a secret passage for teleportation.
Unfortunately, President Chung neglected one thing. Du Feng wasn't only a Alchemist, he was also an array master. His attainments in array formations weren't any weaker than Alchemy. He didn't dismantle the original array formation. Instead, he added some materials on top of it.
This way, from President Chung's point of view, the array formations that he had set up previously were still intact. It was as if Du Feng was still in his control.
