Three days later, Du Shaofu was meditating when he was called to the hall by his uncle.
It turned out to be Ye Baolin, Ye Zijin, Bai Jiru, Bai Caiyi, and the others. Even Ye Guang and Bai Wei were among them.
However, these two Meridian Spirit Realm cultivators were extremely courteous in front of Du Shaofu. They didn't put on airs at all.
"What? You want me to be the City Lord?"
When Du Shaofu learned of their intentions, he was so shocked that his mouth formed a circle. He shook his head without any hesitation and said, "You should find someone else. I can't be the City Lord."
No matter how Ye Baolin and Ye Guang tried to persuade him, Du Shaofu was not interested.
In the end, when everyone knew that Du Shaofu really didn't want to be the City Lord, Ye Zijin thought of a way to let her father, Ye Baolin, continue to be the City Lord of Stone City, but Du Shaofu would be the Vice City Lord. Normally, he wouldn't have to do anything.
It was hard to refuse, so Du Shaofu had no choice but to nod and agree. Anyway, he didn't have to do anything, so it didn't matter if he had a title.
Then, the three families discussed the matters in the city. Du Shaofu could only stay on the side, bored.
Knowing that everything in the city had been restored, Du Shaofu was relieved. However, when he learned that the three families and other forces had lost no less than two thousand people, he was secretly sad and grieved.
After the Ye family and the Bai family left, Du Shaofu mentioned to his uncles that he might leave Stone City to train. Unexpectedly, Du Zhenwu and Du Zhixiong didn't object at all. Instead, they were extremely supportive. However, they told Du Shaofu to be careful outside.
"Shaofu, your eldest sister is currently in the Stone Dragon Empire's Tianwu Academy. Your second brother is in the Lanling Prefecture. He seems to be working in a gang called the Stardragon Gang. If you have the chance, you can go and see them. They haven't been home for several years," Du Zhixiong said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded. His eldest sister was his eldest uncle's daughter, and his second brother was his second uncle's son.
Du Shaofu still remembered how his eldest sister and second brother took care of him. They didn't alienate him because of his reputation as a foolish young master. They even often warned Du Hao and the others that if they dared to bully him, they would break their legs. It was a pity that his eldest sister and second brother weren't home often.
Thinking about his eldest sister and second brother, Du Shaofu couldn't help but smile. At that time, the one that Du Hao and the others were most afraid of was not his second brother, but his eldest sister. Even his second brother was afraid of his eldest sister's fiery personality.
The night was as cold as water. There was no moon or clouds tonight. Only the twinkling stars hung in the blue sky.
"When do you plan to leave Stone City?"
In the courtyard, Du Tingxuan was still sitting on the rattan chair as he stared at the deep night sky. His gaze was even deeper than the stars in the night sky.
"In the next two days."
Du Shaofu sat on the edge of the rattan chair while holding the new jug of wine he bought for his alcoholic father last time. After drinking a mouthful of strong wine, his throat felt as if it was on fire. He secretly thought that his alcoholic father's wine was getting stronger and stronger.
"Let's go to the Lanling Prefecture first." Du Tingxuan said.
"Why should I go to the Lanling Prefecture?" Du Shaofu handed the jug of wine to his alcoholic father. Second uncle said that his second brother was at the Lanling Prefecture.
"Flowing Cloud Prefecture is the Lanling Prefecture's territory. Go find Prefecture Lord Ouyang Ling and tell him about Stone City. He will know what to do if he knows." Du Tingxuan took the jug of wine from his son and said.
Du Shaofu knew that the destruction of the Flowing Cloud Prefecture's army in Stone City would be troublesome in the future. He raised his eyebrows and said, "But I don't know the Mansion Lord of the Lanling Prefecture. I'm afraid that even the Mansion Lord of the Lanling Prefecture wouldn't be easy to meet."
Du Tingxuan took a sip of wine and said: "I know him."
Looking at his alcoholic father, Du Shaofu didn't know what else to say.
"After you go to the Lanling Prefecture, go to the Stone Dragon Empire's Tianwu Academy and think of a way to join the Talisman Department." Du Tingxuan said.
"What is the Talisman Department?" Du Shaofu asked.
"Tianwu Academy is divided into the Martial Department and the Talisman Department. The Talisman Department is a place to nurture Spirit Talisman Masters." Du Tingxuan said.
Du Shaofu looked at his alcoholic father with a puzzled expression and said: "I thought you didn't like Spirit Talisman Masters?"
"Asking you to go to the Talisman Department doesn't mean that I like Spirit Talisman Masters." Du Tingxuan glanced at Du Shaofu and said.
"I will consider the Talisman Department, but I will only consider it. Your son is going to cultivate Spiritual Power now. It's up to you whether you like it or not." Du Shaofu stood up and entered his room to cultivate the mysterious incomplete cultivation technique.
Du Tingxuan didn't say anything. He smiled faintly and continued to look at the sky. After a long time, a sharp light surged in his eyes as he muttered, "Do you really think that you are gods of this world? Even if you are gods, I will drag you down sooner or later!"
The next day, in Fu Yibai's room in the Martial Repository.
Just as Du Shaofu was about to bid farewell to Fu Yibai, he didn't expect to see Fu Yibai wrapping up the two patched clothes he often wore and a bunch of other things.
"Old Bai, what are you doing?" Du Shaofu asked in puzzlement.
"I'm going to leave the Du family." Fu Yibai said, but his expression was somewhat depressed.
When Du Shaofu heard this and saw Fu Yibai's depressed expression, he immediately asked, "Old Bai, did you encounter some difficulties? Do you need my help?"
Fu Yibai raised his head to look at Du Shaofu and said angrily, "I told Du Zhenwu that I have been in the Du family for too long, so I want to leave the Du family to play outside. However, that kid actually said that I'm old and didn't let me leave."
"This …"
Hearing Fu Yibai's words, Du Shaofu's face immediately stiffened.
From Fu Yibai's words, it wasn't difficult for Du Shaofu to know that his uncle must be worried that Fu Yibai was old and had no children. If he left the Du family, what would happen if he encountered danger? However, he didn't expect Fu Yibai to be so ungrateful.
"Could it be that you also don't want me to leave and want me to work for your Du family for the rest of my life?" Fu Yibai said to Du Shaofu.
"Where do you plan to go?" Du Shaofu glanced at Fu Yibai and asked.
"I don't know, I want to walk around. I'll go wherever is fun, hehe." Fu Yibai wrapped his bag in a few moves. When he saw that Du Shaofu had no intention of stopping him, he immediately smiled at Du Shaofu with an old face.
"It's very dangerous outside. It's not bad for you to stay in the Du family. If you want to play, the stone city isn't small." Du Shaofu helplessly looked at Fu Yibai and said.
"I'm already tired of staying in the stone city. What's so fun about it?"
Fu Yibai rolled his eyes and squeezed out a smile on his wrinkled face. He looked extremely cunning and said, "How about this? Let's call off our previous bet. If you agree, I'll consider staying."
"A bet is a bet. I'll always be your big brother. Goodbye, I won't send you off."
Du Shaofu glared at Fu Yibai. So this guy was just trying to stir up emotions. He was actually thinking about calling off the previous bet. He immediately turned around and left.
"Little brat."
Fu Yibai fiercely glared at Du Shaofu's back. Then, as if he thought of something, he curled his lips and revealed his yellowed teeth. He softly muttered, "I'll never see this little brat again in this lifetime. This way, no one will know that I lost the bet. Yes, just like that. I'm too smart. "
A bright smile appeared on his wrinkled face. Fu Yibai immediately picked up his bag and left the room.
The next day, on the stone city walls, the King Scaled Demon Tiger transformed into a few meters and stood beside Du Shaofu.
Ye Zijin looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Be careful."
"If senior Thunder Demon Lion comes out of seclusion, please tell him on my behalf that I won't be able to say goodbye to him." Du Shaofu said.
"Last time, Leizu's seclusion was affected, and he was even injured. This time, I'm afraid that he will be in seclusion for a longer period of time. However, when Leizu comes out, I will tell him." Ye Zijin said.
"There's no need to be outside. Be careful." Du Zhenwu said with concern in his eyes.
Du Shaofu nodded and immediately said goodbye to Ye Baolin, Bai Caiyi, Bai Jiru, and Second Uncle who came to send him off.
"Roar!"
A moment later, Du Shaofu rode on the King Scaled Demon Tiger. Following the roar of the King Scaled Demon Tiger, Du Shaofu soared into the sky and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
Looking at the figure that was getting farther and farther away, Ye Zijin raised the curtain and frowned. That figure was getting farther and farther away, as if the distance between them was getting farther and farther.
"Does he really not belong to the stone city?"
Ye Zijin said in her heart. Not long ago, Ye Guang had mentioned to her that that young man did not belong to the stone city. Therefore, it was destined that the two of them would get farther and farther away.
"Zijin, let's go back."
After a long time, everyone came down from the city wall. Ye Baolin looked at his beloved daughter who was still standing on the city wall. On his handsome face, there was a trace of helplessness and a wry smile.
"Father, I also want to go outside."
Ye Zijin turned around and looked at her father. She gently shook her head, causing half of her hair to flutter. She raised her hand and combed it.
"Why?" Ye Baolin looked at his beloved daughter and asked.
"The stone city is too small. It will be more exciting outside." Ye Zijin said.
Ye Baolin did not immediately answer. Instead, a bitter smile appeared on his face. "A grown girl cannot be kept at home. Sigh …"
Ye Zijin opened her mouth, wanting to say something. She looked in the direction where someone had just disappeared, but she lowered her head again and remained silent.
… … …
Lanling Prefecture, one of the three hundred and sixty-five prefectures of the Stone Dragon Empire. Under each prefecture, there were hundreds of prefectures. Under each prefecture, there were dozens of cities.
A prefecture was extremely large and had a large population.
It was rumored that the three hundred and sixty-five prefectures of the empire were extremely powerful. Each of them was equivalent to a feudal lord of a region. They occupied a region and had a high status.
