"Where have you disappeared for a whole year and half, you cheeky boy? For a moment there, I even thought that you were getting married!" Uncle Du laughed heartily as he approached Liu Feng.
Liu Feng faltered for a second. It had been a while since he saw this man who got him out of that cave that he stayed in.
This was the man that might have saved him from craziness. Seeing him again brought back old memories.
"Come. Let us go and get a drink while we talk about everything that has been going on." Uncle Du laughed as he approached Liu Feng, putting his arm around Liu Feng.
"I am sorry, Uncle Du, but I think that I have to go now. There is something that I must do. But surely, I will have the drink when I am free." Liu Feng nodded. At this moment, he agreed with Liu Man. He couldn't let too many things distract him.
Sure, the dumpling took up a few minutes, but if he started meeting people he knew a long time ago, then it would take forever.
"It wasn't a question, you stupid boy." suddenly, the face of Uncle Du changed. A wicked smile appeared on his face, and the face melted.
This was not Uncle Du, but someone else disguised as him.
"This is why I told you not to be too attached. If you had let everything go, then you would have noticed the moment you laid his eyes upon him, that he was in the Soul Formation stage." Liu Man sighed.
"I should have noticed." Liu Feng nodded.
This mysterious man who was disguised as Uncle Du was confused. But he came here with a purpose. He had a knife in his hands that was pressed against Liu Feng's neck.
"Why don't both of you come with me? I think that you will have a nice time." he said.
"Ah! Sirs! The city lord said that both of you can come in!" the guard who went in first suddenly came running toward them.
Liu Feng looked at Liu Man and nodded.
Blast!
Blood Splattered everywhere. A headless corpse fell to the ground.
"Well, that was disgusting. Which faction is he from?" Liu Feng wondered as he ruffled through the man's clothing, but nothing could be found. He took the spatial ring and looked through it.
"And would you look at that. Guess who attacked us?" Liu Feng smiled as he took out an item from the spatial ring.
"The Hong family?"
"Yep. The Hong family." Liu Feng nodded as he showed Liu Man an insignia with one character on it: Hong.
"How stupid can they be? Do they not know that I am in the Soul Evolution Stage? Why would they send a stupid Xiantian realm assassin for me?" Liu Feng shook his head and sighed.
"Well then. Now that you know that they have crossed a line, let us do something interesting for once. Let us go to their base and have some fun with their men. Let us go ahead and start your bloody path to the throne." Liu Man smiled as he looked at the open gate.
All of the guards looked at Liu Feng with open jaws. What they just witnessed was truly horrifying. This boy killed the person he called Uncle?
"He was an assassin. Nothing more." Liu Feng pointed at the headless corpse and shook his head. He could see those judging faces and terrified faces. He didn't want to leave with people thinking that he was a heartless killer.
The guard who came running here looked at the two guests and was about to step forward to guide them, when Liu Feng stopped them.
"Don't worry. It's not my first time here. I think I can find my way to the city lord." both of them vanished, and the guards looked around with surprise and shock.
"If they could do that all this time, then why didn't they just go straight to the city lord? Why did they stop for guards who couldn't even stop them?" a young guard on the walls asked. His voice was still trembling as he saw a man suddenly have his head explode into a thousand smithereens.
"You should not think about stuff like that. Just remember. We are men of the city lord. The city lord is so powerful that no one in the entire city dares go against him. And even more important, the guardian beast of the entire city is here!" an older and more experienced guard said.
---------
Liu Feng and Liu Man were in a separate space of the city lord's mansion where no one was present. Just Liu Feng, Liu Man, a small lake, and a person sitting by the lake.
"Ah! Both of you are here! I have been waiting for your arrival!" the man by the lake turned around and gave a gentle smile toward both of them.
"I guess you have heard the latest news."
"Who hasn't? It has been a whole day since it happened. Every single major sect has been talking about the two young geniuses in the Soul Evolution Stage who conspired with a wicked beast to destroy the Moon Pavilion." the man chuckled.
"So that is the story that is going around? Now isn't that disconcerting?" Liu Feng shook his head, but there was not a trace of worry on his face.
"It has been a while since I last saw you, son of Liu Qian. And since that time, you have grown to a level where even I cannot see through you. Truly a genius." the man shook his head.
"I wouldn't have gotten to this position without your help, or the pond we have here, city lord." Liu Feng cupped his hands.
"Well then. Go on, I know who you came for. Go and meet him." the city lord beckoned.
