Regardless of how much resentment Du Jingcai still had in his heart, at this moment, he chose to put down his grudges and submit to Chen Feng. He was clear that if he rejected Chen Feng, not only would this Devil City be destroyed, even he himself would lose his life.
Chen Feng was not a kind person, and his admiration for Du Jingcai was nothing more than superficial words. If Du Jingcai really believed him, then he would be so silly that he was adorable and hopeless.
Du Jingcai could only go with the flow and bow slightly, "I'm willing to pledge my loyalty to Your Excellency, but I don't know Your Excellency's name."
"Chen Feng." Chen Feng, who had transformed into the Burning Balrog, did not hesitate at all and directly said.
"Chen Feng?" Du Jingcai was a little dazed after the continuous battles. For a moment, he only felt that this name was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"Don't think about it, I'm the leader of Order. Our warriors are still outside Devil Town and have just helped you defeat your enemies!"
"Order!"
Hearing this, Du Jingcai's face instantly turned pale. He remembered this name. A day ago, Order was still an enemy of Du Jingcai's illusion, but today, he had actually submitted to the enemy that he was on guard against.
"How funny."
Du Jingcai wanted to laugh, but it turned into a bitter smile. He laughed at himself for overestimating himself, and also laughed at the fact that Order was too powerful and had unknowingly infiltrated Devil Town. His so-called plan and so-called precautions were probably no different from children playing house in the eyes of the other party.
The other party was so terrifying that even an ordinary child from the slums could become such a terrifying professional!
Du Jingcai looked at Yang Shuo who was at a loss. He knew that at this moment, he had finally put down the worries in his heart and completely chose to pledge his loyalty to Chen Feng.
That was because he knew one thing, and that was that no matter what he did, he could not break free from Chen Feng's grasp. The other party was so terrifying and terrifying.
Du Jingcai had countless illusions about how he would treat the other party when he first met them. After all, he knew from Du Jianan that Order was so rich and powerful that they were not even on the same level.
However, no matter how hard Du Jingcai racked his brains, he would never have imagined that the first time he met the other party, he would actually learn the other party's name through surrendering.
Chen Feng stood at the side and looked at Du Jingcai's bewildered eyes. He knew what the other party was thinking at this time. After all, it would take a while for anyone to get used to having an imaginary enemy above their head.
He didn't think of comforting the other party. What he wanted was a talent, not an idiot who needed his guidance.
If the other party couldn't even sort out such a small matter, then there was no value in their existence at all. They were like trash that could be abandoned at any time.
"The winner takes all. This is a path that has never changed since ancient times. Since you know the name 'Order', you must know what it means!"
"To be honest, I admire your character, but I have some doubts about your management skills. Because look at what Devil Town is like now. Scoundrels rule the streets, and people don't care about living. You feel pain for the poor people under your command, but little do you know that it was you who connived with those thugs time and time again that led to these tragedies."
"You always think that as long as you kill them, everything will be solved, and those poor people will be able to live with dignity. But you don't know that after Li San died, there was still Wang Si and Zhang Wu. This town has long been rotten, and the so-called thugs have spread like a fungus to every corner of the town. But what you don't know is that the source of all this came from you."
Every single one of Chen Feng's words was like a sledgehammer that smashed into Du Jingcai's heart. At this moment, his face was flushed red, as if every single one of his blood vessels had burst open. There was an indescribable feeling of mournfulness and pain.
As the leader of Devil Town, he instinctively wanted to refute Chen Feng. In his view, this was just some ambiguity. How could the source of the disaster come from him? He had clearly been working hard to change the fate of the poor.
However, when the words reached his mouth, he couldn't say a single word. After all, Chen Feng wasn't wrong. A large part of the reason why those people in the slums lived so painfully was because of his own inaction.
He had been too self-righteous. He had always thought that if he continued waiting and advanced to the Epic stage, he would be able to crush the other party with the power of Mount Tai. However, he didn't know that this was only indulging those bastards' atrocities.
On Du Jingcai's desk, there were large and small documents on it every day. They recorded the incidents of the poor people being bullied. Every time, Du Jingcai would fly into a rage, wishing he could slap those despicable fellows to death.
However, he had to endure because he told himself that now wasn't the time. What he had to do was to catch them all in one fell swoop. After all, once news of this leaked out, Devil Town would truly be destroyed and would be on the verge of destruction.
However, his tolerance only made those people want a yard after taking an inch. More and more demonic hands reached out to those pitiful people. Countless people were ruined and their families were destroyed.
Du Jingcai didn't dare to admit it in the past, but now he had to accept the fact that he didn't have the courage to fight those thugs head-on.
Just like this time, when he advanced, he knew that his chances of survival were fifty-fifty. In order not to affect the development of the city, he ordered his trusted subordinates to encircle and annihilate those thugs.
At that moment, Du Jingcai understood a principle. It wasn't that he didn't have the power to destroy those people, but that he had to weigh the pros and cons. He was afraid that once the other party joined forces, his position wouldn't be guaranteed.
At this thought, Du Jingcai wished he could bury his head in the ground. He had repeatedly said that he was doing this for the sake of Devil Town, for the sake of the survivors here. He had even shamelessly tried to subdue Yang Shuo, but now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to admit one thing, and that was the fact that he was useless!
Du Jingcai closed his eyes. He didn't want to expose his painful side in front of Chen Feng.
At this time, Chen Feng continued to speak, "It's your cowardice that caused all this to happen. However, now that I'm here, order will shroud this city. No one can rely on their status as a professional to kill wantonly on this land. Anyone who breaks the law will only have one ending, and that is death!"
"The things that you don't dare to do, I will do it for you. The people that you don't dare to kill, I will eliminate them for you. From today onwards, all you need to do is to obey all the laws of Order. As for management, you will still be fully in charge. And this, treat it as atonement for your past sins!"
Chen Feng's words rang in Du Jingcai's ears. He only felt his face turn red. It seemed like he had been humiliated and didn't dare to refute.
"Yes!"
At this point, this was the only thing he could say.
"Alright, my informants told me that you've made some strange movements. I think you've made preparations to deal with some of the influential people here. However, although this place is chaotic, it's still a place where dragons and tigers alternate. You have people you can't touch. Tell me their names. After today, everything here will belong to the Du family!"
Chen Feng stared at Du Jingcai and said in a frivolous tone. In Du Jingcai's tone, those terrifying people in power were like little ants that could be crushed to death!
It was only at this moment that Du Jingcai realized the gap between him and Du Jingcai. He didn't dare to be unruly anymore. Like a captured beast, he lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything.
…
In a large mansion, there was a man in his fifties. He had a hunchback and hawk-like eyes. At a glance, he exuded an incomparably fierce aura.
Ren Tianpeng's identity was a mystery. Everything about him was shrouded in a dense fog, and no one knew anything. Ren Tianpeng only lived in this Devil City, and didn't ally with anyone, nor did he have any grudges with anyone. But even so, he still attracted Du Jingcai's incomparable attention. This was because Du Jingcai could always sense a terrifying sense of danger from Ren Tianpeng.
When facing him, Du Jingcai was like a small beast that had seen a tyrannosaurus. He could always feel a sense of dread.
Under such circumstances, he had even instinctively viewed Du Jingcai as an invisible person. If he could avoid provoking Du Jingcai, he would naturally avoid provoking Du Jingcai. However, things were different now. Du Jingcai had submitted to Chen Feng, which was equivalent to obtaining a huge backer. As someone who had obtained such a fortuitous encounter, the first person he thought of was Ren Tianpeng.
In Du Jingcai's mind, no matter what, he had to find a way to figure out what Du Jingcai was thinking. After all, as long as Du Jingcai existed, he would be a huge hidden danger to Devil Town.
At this thought, Chen Feng summoned Saruman. A qualified Lich not only had the ability to summon undead, but also had the ability to heal.
Under Saruman's healing, Du Jingcai's body quickly recovered. It was also at this moment that he understood Chen Feng's strength. From Saruman's body, Du Jingcai felt the energy fluctuations that he had always dreamed of. However, such a powerful existence was actually led by Chen Feng. He didn't dare to imagine how terrifying Chen Feng's true strength was.
It was precisely because he had such a backer that Du Jingcai stepped into the door of the mansion alone.
Chen Feng and Yang Shuo stood to the side. This was also specially requested by Du Jingcai. Previously, when he was in the Legendary rank, he didn't dare to provoke Du Jingcai because he didn't know the details of Du Jingcai's background. He was afraid that he would anger Du Jingcai. However, it was different now. Du Jingcai had swallowed a pill. Although he hadn't entered the Epic rank, he had the strength of a half-step Epic rank. At this time, probing Du Jingcai would undoubtedly be very useful.
Therefore, Du Jingcai asked Chen Feng to stand to the side until he needed help.
However, just as Du Jingcai stood at the door and had yet to enter, suddenly, a terrifying and unparalleled ferocious aura appeared.
The terrifying aura was completely revealed. Du Jingcai couldn't resist at all!
"Slash!"
In front of this terrifying peerless attack, Du Jingcai's strength had no place to stand. Even if he had the aura of a half-step Epic rank, it was like a piece of plastic paper. He was directly crushed and his consciousness scattered.
"Pu!"
Du Jingcai immediately felt a pain in his chest. Finally, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood!
His face was as pale as paper. Who would have thought that Du Jingcai didn't even make a move and only relied on a consciousness attack to destroy him like this?
"Du Jingcai, didn't I tell you not to come to my place? We didn't interfere with each other's business. Why did you come to provoke me again? And not only that, I can also feel that you are now filled with killing intent. Did you come here to subdue me? Or to kill me? "
"Those who kill will be killed. I'll give you a chance to escape. If you still insist on being stubborn, then don't blame me!"
Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Du Jingcai could still imagine Du Jingcai's contemptuous look. This made Du Jingcai's heart and body ache violently!
The person he was loyal to was right next to him. It had to be said that the human heart was a very complicated thing. Clearly, before this, he still looked neither servile nor overbearing. However, since he was subdued by Chen Feng, he instinctively wanted to show off in front of Du Jingcai.
"Ren Tianpeng, do you know what you are saying?"
Thinking of this, Du Jingcai panted heavily. His eyes were red as he looked at the mansion in front of him. Finally, he could no longer suppress the killing intent in his heart. His eyes were filled with a scarlet color.
"Not bad, not bad at all. You actually have the guts to say such a thing to me. Originally, I came to this world purely to absorb energy. However, after constantly probing like this, I finally lost my patience. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Today, I'll eat my fill!"
"Hmm?"
Chen Feng stood aside. He originally thought that it was just a simple probing. However, judging from Du Jingcai's tone, Du Jingcai was obviously not as simple as he thought.
Interesting.
Sensing something strange, Chen Feng, who originally ignored Du Jingcai, became interested at this time. He looked over and waited for Du Jingcai to appear.
Although Du Jingcai's legs were sore and there was some pain in his chest, these were only simple injuries after all. The reason he was blasted into this state by Du Jingcai's consciousness was because he had relied on his half-step Epic stage to try to probe Du Jingcai with his consciousness. However, who would have thought that Du Jingcai's consciousness was so powerful? It was like the deep sea that completely enveloped Du Jingcai's spirit. It was precisely because of this that Du Jingcai suffered such a torment!
"Crack!"
The door opened.
Ren Tianpeng walked out with a calm expression. He looked at Du Jingcai and said, "No wonder you dared to come here and provoke me. It turns out that you have advanced by another level. This is great. It's a good choice to use you as a meal."
Ren Tianpeng was still as calm as before. It was as if he had Du Jingcai in his grasp. He wasn't nervous or flustered at all.
"You're not human!"
When Du Jingcai heard this, he naturally heard something strange. When he thought that there was actually such a strange parasitic thing here, he felt a trace of lingering fear. Moreover, it was said that there were always professionals or ordinary people who went missing around. Du Jingcai didn't suspect Du Jingcai at first, but from Du Jingcai's current performance, he vaguely grasped a clue in his heart for some reason.
The disappearance of those people wasn't a possibility. It was definitely inseparable from this guy!
"Damn monster!"
After experiencing so many drastic changes, Du Jingcai urgently needed an outlet to vent, and Ren Tianpeng in front of him was undoubtedly the best person to vent his anger!
