On the back of the Little Tiger, First Princess Cheng Sheng-nan was extremely obedient in front of Du Zhixiong. Her relationship with Du Xiaoman and Du Xiaoqing was also quite good. She beat around the bush and found out many things about Du Shaofu's childhood from Du Xiaoman and Du Zhixiong.
When she heard that Du Shaofu was still the 'foolish young master' of the entire Stone City two years ago, the First Princess was also very surprised. However, she still cast a sidelong glance at Du Shaofu and teased him.
When she heard that Du Shaofu and his drunkard father had always depended on each other since young, ripples appeared in the First Princess's eyes. She secretly looked at the purple-robed young man who was sitting cross-legged not far away, and the light in her eyes seemed to have changed.
"This First Princess seems to like you."
Du Xiaoyao sat beside Du Shaofu and looked at Cheng Sheng-nan who was talking to Du Zhixiong. Then, she cast a sidelong glance at Du Shaofu and said.
"Take advantage of your free time to cultivate properly."
Du Shaofu glared at Du Xiaoyao, then turned to look at the First Princess behind him. He formed a hand seal and began to regulate his breathing.
Stone City, a small city at the border beside the Savage Beast Mountain Range. It was still as fierce and aggressive as ever.
Among the various powers in Stone City, the Du Family's position was getting higher and higher. The news of Vice City Lord Du Shaofu obtaining first place in the Tianwu Academy's Tianwu Competition and being conferred the title of Marquis in the Imperial Capital had already spread through various channels, causing the entire Stone City to be in an uproar.
Several days later, at the border of the Savage Beast Mountain Range, Stone City.
The sky was vast and boundless. Dusk. Everything was shrouded in the boundless mist of dusk, appearing transparent and quiet. Accompanied by the glow of the setting sun, red clouds covered the sky.
"Roar …"
Suddenly, a tiger's roar resounded from the sky above the Stone City. That soul-shaking roar caused the residents of the Stone City to feel a sense of familiarity.
In the sky, the clouds rippled, and a huge ink-black tiger flapped its wings in mid-air. Its aura was so terrifying that it made people tremble in fear for no reason.
There were several figures standing on top of the giant tiger. The one in the lead was a purple-robed young man with a purple broadsword on his back. His face was resolute and determined, and his eyes were clear under his sharp eyebrows.
"That's the Vice City Lord!"
"There's also the second master of the Du family and the eldest daughter of the Du family."
"It must be because the Du Family was provoked by some experts some time ago, so the Second Master went to find the Vice City Lord."
Looking at the purple-robed young man on the black tiger, the entire Stone City was in an uproar.
"Third Young Master is back."
"Second Master and Eldest Miss are also back."
Outside the Du Family, the courtyard was still the same as before. When a huge black tiger flapped its wings and appeared outside the Du Family, many of the Du Family's disciples were overjoyed. Many of the elders also came out after hearing the news.
"Brother Shaofu, you're back?"
"Nice to meet you, Brother Shaofu."
The younger generation of the Du Family, Du Yu, Du Xue, and the others all came forward to greet him. Du Chong, Du Hao, Du Gui, and the others also came forward enthusiastically.
Of course, their gazes fell on Du Xiaoqing, Du Xiaoyao, and the eldest princess, Cheng Sheng-nan. They were also surprised by the eldest princess and Du Xiaoqing.
"Great Elder, how is my eldest uncle now?"
Great Elder Du Shaofu was also in the crowd at this time. Du Shaofu immediately asked as he was most worried about his eldest uncle's situation.
"Yesterday, there was an expert who came, saying that he was entrusted by you to check on the family head's injuries. He has been in the room all this time, so we don't know the situation now." Great Elder said to Du Shaofu.
"The King of Medicine, it must be the King of Medicine."
Hearing this, Du Shaofu heaved a sigh of relief. With the King of Medicine's help, his eldest uncle's situation should be much more stable.
With the return of Du Shaofu, Du Zhixiong, Du Xiaoman, and the others, the entire Du Family was very lively. The identity of the eldest princess, Cheng Sheng-nan, was also spread by Du Zhixiong, which shocked everyone in the Du Family even more. The Du Family had never had such a noble with such a high status visit before.
When the gossipy ladies of the Du Family saw that the eldest princess seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with Du Shaofu, and the news from Du Zhixiong, they were all very happy. The news immediately spread in the Du Family.
Not long after, because of Du Shaofu's return, the head of the Bai Family, Bai Jiru, and the City Lord, Ye Baolin, personally brought people to the Du Family. Regardless of the reason, with Du Shaofu's identity as the Courage King, they still had to pay him a visit.
With the arrival of these two people, Du Shaofu had no choice but to go out and meet them.
When Ye Baolin, Bai Jiru, and the others found out that the eldest princess was also in the Du Family, they were even more shocked. After bowing one after another, they saw that the eldest princess seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with Du Shaofu, and they could not help but speculate in that direction.
After chatting for a while, Ye Baolin and Bai Jiru left. The twilight had already turned blurry, and the sky that was filled with the glow of the sunset gradually calmed down.
Then, stars hung in the dark blue night sky, and a crescent moon silently climbed into the sky.
Du Shaofu stood in front of a courtyard, and there were faint energy fluctuations spreading out from it.
"You're back? Come in."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside the courtyard.
Hearing this, Du Shaofu's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately went forward to push open the door and entered the room.
Inside the room, at this moment, there was an old man in a grey robe whose long sleeves were trembling slightly. His face was slightly pale, and his eyes were slightly narrowed as he looked at Du Shaofu. His voice was slightly old, and he said faintly, "You're living quite comfortably, being conferred the title of Marquis and having me work hard for you in Chaos Demon City. Just a word from you, and I still have to rush over without stopping. To be able to leave all the work to you, you can be considered unprecedented."
"Thank you for your hard work, Elder Yi."
Du Shaofu respectfully bowed to the Medicine King, and his heart was filled with gratitude.
In this world, how many people could make the dignified Medicine King Yi Wuming rush over from Chaos Demon City without stopping? Du Shaofu would remember this favor deeply in his heart.
"Kid, don't be so polite. Your uncle's injuries are indeed very serious. Someone attacked and injured his internal organs, and also affected his soul. Fortunately, during this period of time, a Beast King protected his Qi, otherwise, no one would be able to save him."
The Medicine King Yi Wuming glanced at Du Shaofu, then looked at the figure sitting cross-legged on the bed and said, "I have already healed your uncle's internal organs, and also his soul. There are no major problems. He should be able to wake up in three or four days, but it will affect his cultivation in the future."
"It's good that he's fine. Thank you, Elder Yi."
Du Shaofu bowed again. The Medicine King, Doctor Wuming, was indeed worthy of his reputation. Looking at the big man who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, surrounded by a strange layer of faint fluorescent light, Du Shaofu relaxed completely.
"I need to rest for a while. Tomorrow, I will talk to you about Chaos Demon City." The Medicine King stretched and said to Du Shaofu.
Du Shaofu nodded and personally brought the Medicine King to find a quiet courtyard for him to rest. Only then did he go back.
Under the moonlight, the courtyard that he had not seen for a long time still looked the same. There were no changes.
Du Shaofu stepped into the courtyard. A rattan chair was placed there quietly, and it seemed a little quiet and empty.
Looking at the quiet rattan chair, Du Shaofu seemed to see a drunken man sleeping soundly, hugging a gourd of wine in his arms, unwilling to let go.
"Father, where are you now?"
After a while, Du Shaofu smiled bitterly. Since he was young, the scene that he had seen the most in this courtyard was his father often hugging a wine gourd and looking at the sky. The smell of wine filled the air, and then he fell asleep drunk.
And now, he still didn't know where his father had gone, and where was he?
"Eh …"
Suddenly, Du Shaofu frowned and his figure suddenly disappeared.
When Du Shaofu's figure appeared again, he was already in his room. At this time, he saw that in his room, there was an exquisite and curvaceous woman looking around. It was the eldest princess, Cheng Sheng-nan.
"You're back?"
Turning around and seeing Du Shaofu, the eldest princess smiled and immediately went up to Du Shaofu and said, "The people in your family are very enthusiastic. Today, they told me a lot of things about your past. Is this your room?"
"Why are you here? Where are Little Qing and the others? "
Du Shaofu asked in astonishment. He didn't expect that the eldest princess would be in his room at this time of the night.
"It was your aunts who asked me to come. They said that I can stay here temporarily. Little Qing and Sister Xiaoman are together. Little Demon Du, that little tiger, I don't know where he ran off to." The Eldest Princess said to Du Shaofu.
Hearing this, Du Shaofu looked at the woman in front of him and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that his aunts were worried about him again.
The eldest princess looked at Du Shaofu and frowned slightly. Her red lips parted slightly and said, "You seem to be very afraid of me. Am I really that scary?"
"Am I …"
Du Shaofu curled his lips and said, "You think too much."
"Are you afraid that I'll eat you?"
Suddenly, the First Princess looked at Du Shaofu and smiled. Her exquisite and slender body purposely straightened, forming an alluring curve. Under the dim and hazy light, it was even more captivating. Her pearly white teeth parted slightly as she laughed tenderly. "You can't really be afraid that I'll eat you, right?"
Du Shaofu was stunned for a moment. After that, he turned around and left. His voice rang out, "You can sleep in my room. Rest early. I'll sleep in my father's room."
Looking at Du Shaofu's departing figure, the eldest princess's bright eyes were half closed. She gently stroked her jade-like face and then looked at the open window in the room. The moonlight shrouded the room and it was quiet outside. She raised her head slightly and a smile appeared on her lips. She pursed her lips and said softly, "This fellow looks fierce and domineering. I didn't expect that there would be so many stories behind him.
