Zhang Zhen was a bit puzzled. He guessed that Qin Feng was a member of the Holy Gate, so why was Young Noble Qiao asking about the Holy Gate?
Seeing that Zhang Zhen and Hua Xiaozhen had the same answer, Qin Feng was a bit disappointed. He continued to ask, "When will the Holy Gate selection begin?"
Zhang Zhen was even more puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask. "According to the time limit of three years, there is still half a year left. However, the specific date will be decided by the Holy Gate. It will be announced one month in advance, and then the selection will be held at Fire Beacon City …"
Zhang Zhen told Qin Feng everything he knew. He was afraid that Qin Feng would think that he was hiding something and kill him.
Qin Fen learned from Hua Xiaozhen that there were eight great cities in the Divine Continent, and Fire Beacon City was the ninth city that separated itself from the eight great cities. This place was not under the control of any sacred sect and was a public land.
Qin Feng didn't get any more information even after asking for a long time. His expression gradually turned cold. Zhang Zhen seemed to have noticed the situation and hurriedly said, "Young Master Qiao, please don't kill me. Do you want to go to the Sacred Gate of Distant Ice City?"
The Spirit Beast Sect was at Distant Ice City. Qin Feng asked, "Do you have any other way to enter the Holy Gate?"
"Originally, I didn't, but now that Distant Ice City and Meteor City are at war, there is a way to contact the Holy Gate disciples …"
Qin Feng's eyes lit up, but he still said with a cold expression, "Speak!"
Zhang Zhen trembled in fear and quickly said, "If Young Noble Qiao spare this lowly one's life, this lowly one can take you to the yamen. Now that the two cities are at war, the Holy Gate disciples at Distant Ice City have come out to fight. They will contact the people from the yamen to help them …"
Qin Feng became spirited. He didn't expect this kind of method. He already started to plan how to enter the yamen and contact the Spirit Beast Sect.
As for Zhang Zhen's offer to take him back, Qin Feng didn't even consider it. He could see through Zhang Zhen's thoughts with a glance. If he followed Zhang Zhen back to the yamen, that brat would definitely gather experts to kill him.
Swish!
While Qin Feng was still in a daze, Zhang Zhen suddenly jumped up with his saber and instantly appeared above Qin Feng's head.
Zhang Zhen's cowardly expression greatly changed as he fiercely glared at Qin Feng. The saber in his hand was already raised above his head. The moment it slashed down, he roared at Qin Feng, "Stinking brat, die …"
Puchi!
The sound of skin being cut rang out. However, it was not Zhang Zhen who had split open Qin Feng's head. There was a flash of pink light, and Zhang Zhen's body was suspended in mid-air. It was as if someone had cast a Body Securing Talisman on him. However, a pink flying sword pierced through his chest and supported him in mid-air.
Rumble!
With a thought from Qin Fen, the flying sword completely pierced through Zhang Zhen. With a loud explosion, Zhang Zhen turned into a flower of blood. It was no longer possible to see his complete appearance.
At this point, Qin Feng had single-handedly annihilated Zhang Zhen and the other eleven true qi stage experts. He had also obtained some useful information. At this moment, he was in a good mood as he flew down the mountain.
By the time he found Flaming Dragon Horse and Hua Xiaozhen, he had already flown over a hundred miles on his flying sword. Flaming Dragon Horse was grazing on the side while Hua Xiaozhen was sitting on a rock. Her shoulders were loose and she was crying her heart out.
"Little Zhen, why are you crying? Who bullied you? " Qin Feng sheathed his sword and landed on the ground. Hua Xiaozhen was shocked. The moment she saw Qin Feng, her eyes sparkled as if she had found a new life.
Hua Xiaozhen's eyes were swollen from crying. She had been crying since the moment she left on Flaming Dragon Horse. She still did not know how powerful Qin Feng was and thought that he had died at the hands of the bailiffs. She had already thought it through. If the bailiffs caught up and confirmed that Young Master Qiao was killed, Hua Xiaozhen would smash her head against the stone wall and follow in Young Master Qiao's footsteps.
She said she would follow him until death, so she would fulfill her promise!
"Wu wu! Young Master Qiao, is it really you? Little Zhen thought, thought … "
Hua Xiaozhen did not continue speaking. Just saying those words made her feel incomparably terrified. Now that she was lying in Qin Feng's arms, feeling the warmth and familiar scent of a man, Hua Xiaozhen felt that everything had returned …
Qin Feng was speechless by this silly girl. Before they left, he had told her not to worry. It seemed like he had said so much for nothing.
"Little Zhen, don't cry. I've killed those bad people. Let's go to the Yamen now!"
Qin Feng carried Hua Xiaozhen onto Flaming Dragon Horse. Hua Xiaozhen was shocked. "Ah? Go to the Yamen? Young Master Qiao, let's run for our lives … "
Hua Xiaozhen could not understand Qin Feng's thoughts. Qin Feng had already killed the bailiffs. Wasn't going to the Yamen to die?
"Run for our lives? Let's go to the Yamen to receive our reward!" Qin Feng said with a smile.
Hua Xiaozhen felt that her brain was not enough to process everything. She looked at Qin Feng in a daze. "Young Master Qiao, y-you killed the bailiffs, and you still want to receive your reward?"
Qin Feng could not help but touch Hua Xiaozhen's forehead. He said with a smile, "Who said I killed the bailiffs? Those bailiffs were all killed by the bandits of the Horseman Gang. I helped the bailiffs destroy the Horseman Gang, so of course I have to receive my reward … Is Little Zhen going to tell on me? Say that I killed the bailiffs? "
Hua Xiaozhen suddenly understood Qin Feng's meaning. She was stunned by Qin Feng's boldness and hurriedly shook her head. "This lowly servant wouldn't dare. This lowly servant would never say that Young Master Qiao killed anyone. This lowly servant …"
Qin Feng felt helpless when he saw Hua Xiaozhen's frightened expression. He suddenly increased the speed of Flaming Dragon Horse and did not explain anything to this woman.
Along the way, Hua Xiaozhen pointed the way, and Qin Feng sped on the horse. When the sun set, the two of them arrived at West Town.
There were tens of towns in Distant Ice City, and each town had a few mountain villages. West Town was one of the larger towns. The streets were crowded with horses and carriages. It was much more prosperous than Hua Family Village.
"Wow! Young Master Qiao, look! There's candied haws over there! "
Hua Xiaozhen remembered that she came to West Town with her mother when she was five years old. Later, her mother died in the chaos of war, and Hua Xiaozhen's hard life began. She became a servant girl for rich and noble families at the age of six. Now, more than ten years had passed. She never thought that she would come to West Town with a man.
Hua Xiaozhen was attracted by the prosperity of West Town, and her personality became bolder. She sat on Flaming Dragon Horse and chattered like a cheerful little bird.
Qin Feng pulled Flaming Dragon Horse and stopped next to the old woman selling candied haws: "Old granny, give me two sticks of candied haws!"
The old woman saw that Qin Feng was wearing silk embroidered clothes and was riding a large horse. She appeared to be a bit afraid of Qin Feng, so she immediately gave him two sticks of candied haws: "Young Master, I'll give you the candied haws for free. Young Master, have a safe journey!"
The old woman didn't dare take the money, so Qin Feng threw her two silver coins. These silver coins were obtained from the bodies of the Horse-Head Gang and the bailiffs. After all, the gold bars were too eye-catching, and Qin Feng didn't plan on easily taking them out in the future.
The old woman and Hua Xiaozhen were both shocked. Those two sticks of candied haws were at most half a copper coin. This Qin Feng was simply too generous.
"Young Master, you can't do this. This is too much money, even a lowly commoner wouldn't be able to change it." The old woman immediately returned the money to Qin Feng.
Hua Xiaozhen also said anxiously: "Young Master Qiao, this lowly servant doesn't want the candied haws. This lowly servant just said it casually. It's all this lowly servant's fault, lowly servant …"
Qin Feng realized that Hua Xiaozhen was going to hit him again, so he immediately hugged her arm. He took the two sticks of candied haws and immediately disappeared on his horse. He was already afraid of the people of China's closed mindset.
Hua Xiaozhen held a candied haw in one hand and felt like she was dreaming!
She only remembered eating this thing when she was young. At that time, she was also her mother's little darling!
However, when Hua Xiaozhen remembered that these two sticks of candied haws cost Young Master Qiao two silver coins, she immediately became nervous. However, she also felt warm and sweet. This was the first time she met a master who bought things for this lowly servant …
"You lowly commoner, how dare you scare my horse? I think you're tired of living!"
Qin Feng and Hua Xiaozhen momentarily forgot about going to the bailiffs and strolled along the bustling streets of West Town. There was a commotion in front of them. Many people had gathered there, and it seemed like something had happened.
Qin Feng rushed over on horseback. When the crowd saw his horse, they immediately gave way and looked at him with fear.
Among the crowd stood a man and a woman. The man was dressed luxuriously and held a wooden folding fan in his hand. It was obvious that he was a disciple of a wealthy family. The woman, on the other hand, was dressed in coarse cotton clothes. Her hair was dull yellow due to the lack of nutrition. She was carrying a child who had not been weaned yet and was crying loudly!
The rich man kept cursing and threatening the woman. The woman was so frightened that she trembled. The child in her arms cried even louder. The woman felt sorry for the child and patted the child's body.
"Woman, are you deaf or mute? Don't think you'll be fine just because you're pretending to be deaf and mute. Hurry up and tell your child to shut up. It's his crying that scared my horse. If he dares to cry again, I'll throw him to his death … "
After watching for a while, Qin Feng finally understood. The woman's child's crying had scared the carriage at the side. Because of this, the rich man became overbearing.
This scene made many people sigh inwardly and inwardly criticize the man for being narrow-minded. However, in this chaotic era of war, no one dared to voice their anger. Moreover, everyone knew the man's identity. He was the only son of the county magistrate of the West Town Yamen, Wei Chang Ming …
"Young Master Qiao, that man is so bad. The woman is so pitiful …" Hua Xiaozhen was kind-hearted and could not bear to watch any longer. However, she could only sigh. As a lowly servant, she did not dare to ask Qin Feng for help.
The woman was so frightened that she actually knelt on the ground in front of everyone. She raised her head and begged, "Young Master Wei, it's all my son's fault. I apologize on behalf of my son. I hope that Young Master Wei can be magnanimous and spare my son and me this time …"
The sighs in the crowd became even more obvious. Wei Chang Ming spat on the woman and reprimanded her, "Ptui! A lowly commoner like you dares to beg for mercy? Do you know how precious my horse is? This is a dark horse that I bought with ten gold coins. Even if I kill you, I can't afford it … "
