Now, Zheng-Fu and Dong-Chen's team had left the capital and came out many lis away. Of course, those who were looking for him did not even know that he had come out. Along the way, Zheng-Fu used his senses to check around the path until he was sure that no one was following before signaling to Dong-Chen and the others to take a break.

"Yahoo! We finally had a break. I'm crazy tired...," Zhao-Ke, who looked awkward because he could not speak or ask anything for the entire trip, shouted out loudly after Zheng-Fu loosened the still point for him.

Plop!!!

"Stupid baldy! Are you going to make a loud noise for your father, mother, brother, or sister? Soon, the demon beasts will parade here." When Xiao-Ming, who stood beside Zhao-Ke, saw Zhao-Ke shouting loudly, he immediately reached out to tap Zhao-Ke's bald head with a big set of curses.

"Gosh... What would I do? I hadn't spoken since we were in front of the auction house, and it had been four hours before we arrived here. How can't I be uneasy?!" Zhao-Ke said with a look like he was about to cry, for he could not speak at all for four hours throughout the journey. It made him feel very uncomfortable and itchy in his mouth.

Ha ha ha!!!

Everyone laughed. Even Zheng-Fu could not help but laugh at Zhao-Ke's expression. Only Tian-Zhong did not laugh, as his nature was so deep in emotions that he did not feel like laughing at any jokes.

"Well, our journey is still a long way to reach the destination. You guys can rest first," Zheng-Fu said when everyone had stopped laughing. But only Zhao-Ke still had a doubtful face and stared at him as if wanting to say something.

"What do you want to ask me?" Zheng-Fu turned to ask Zhao-Ke, who was staring at him curiously.

"Young Master, where are the rest of our brothers? Why can't I see them?" When Zhao-Ke asked, Dong-Chen and the others realized that the rest of their brothers were not with them before they all turned to Zheng-Fu for an answer as well.

"For that matter, when you wake up, you'll know it... I'm going to take a rest first."

After saying that, Zheng-Fu immediately walked away because he did not want anyone to know about his secret dimension space right now, even his parents. And he did not tell anyone because the more people knew about it, especially those he loved, the more dangerous it would be. So, Zheng-Fu cut off the conversation and went to sleep.

"Huuugh... Each of us should find a resting place. We have to travel a long way before reaching In-See City. Wake up the next morning and you will surely find the rest of us," Dong-Chen said, shrugging, before walking to look for a place to sleep as well.

"What!? Doing this makes me more confused, you know!!?"

"What are you going to complain about, baldy? Quickly find your place to sleep. If not, tomorrow you'll complain again that you can't sleep. Besides, things that you shouldn't know, try not to know too much. Otherwise, you might die of curiosity...

Well, I'd better go to sleep," Xiao-Ming turned to scold Zhao-Ke, who made a loud noise about the things he wanted to know before walking away to sleep, just like Dong-Chen.

"What...! Uh! Then you... Ah, where do you go? You're still standing here just now." When Xiao-Ming had fled to sleep, Zhao-Ke thought to turn to Tian-Zhong, but Tian-Zhong had already gone to sleep as well. So only Zhao-Ke remained, standing alone.

When he regained consciousness, he shouted, "Hey! Wait for me, let me sleep with you, Xiao-Ming!!!" and ran after Xiao-Ming.

Owl!! owl!! owl!!

Phewwww!!!

The dark night covered the sky; not even a single star could be seen. Not far away, more than ten shadow figures were hiding in the trees, staring at Zheng-Fu's people with their eyes covered with killing intent.

*Twelve people? Looks like it's probably the same group that came looking for us when we were in front of the Purple Dragon Auction House.* Zheng-Fu thought to himself as he sensed their presence, both the number of them and their power stage. He could sense it since they had already entered a distance within five kilometres. But Zheng-Fu was still lying, pretending not to know.

Because he wanted to know why they came here, and if they were malicious against his group, he would kill them...

"Chief, that is the group of lads we met in front of the Purple Dragon Auction House, isn't it?"

"I know, you don't have to tell me! But did you find anything?"

"No, not at all. In the radius around this town, we don't see any suspicious people or anyone who looks like that young man."

"Didn't you find him at all? Damn it, feeding the waste of rice. Just one man, you can't find him. Go out, keep searching. Anyway, we have to find him. The advanced-stage armour must be ours!"

"Yes, sir!!!"

"Huh...?"

"What's that sound!? I'm going to sleep. Who's making a noise?!"

"Chief, that bald bastard wakes up and seems to hear us talking."

"What are you waiting for? Deal with him!!"

"Yes, sir!!!"

Zhao-Ke, who happened to have good ears that woke him up in the middle of the night, trying to find the source of that sound with sleepy eyes, did not even know that he was going to come to an end. Because at this moment, the group of people in the trees took out their weapons, preparing to kill him to shut him up.

Phew!!!

Zing!! Chop!!

But suddenly, a sharp wave of wind surged out, cutting through the bodies of the three men who were leaping towards Zhao-Ke to kill him. That caused the three men's bodies to be torn in half and fall to their deaths without them even realizing it.

"Wha... what... what happened?" The face of the middle-aged man, who was the chief, turned pale when his henchmen suddenly fell and died so quickly that he could not even feel how they died and in what way.

Phew!!!

The wind surged out into the darkness again, and it rushed towards the middle-aged man with great speed, but luckily, he had a quick reaction. He grabbed his henchman to shield himself as he dived to the side. And when the wind surged in, his henchman's body was instantly cut in half.

Chop!!

Thud!!

"Who's that!? Come out if you're really masterful. Don't hide!!"

The middle-aged man shouted in terror, for he did not know who did it. But no matter how loud he made a noise, no one came out. As time passed, he began to feel that the surroundings were unusually silent, so he turned to look at his people. Suddenly, his face was even paler than before. His ten henchmen had all died. Only he was left alive.

"Ya... you... you, de... de... demon!! Come out now!

Come out. If you're truly brave, come out!!" The middle-aged man shouted even louder. His voice echoed throughout the forest like the howl of a forest ghost. But no matter how much he shouted, no voice answered him.

Flop!!!

"Want to see me, right?"

You!!!

Suddenly, while he was looking around, a male voice rang out as a young man appeared out of the tree. And when the middle-aged man stared at the man who had just appeared, his face turned even paler than before because he well remembered who this guy was.

"Ya... ya... you!!! It's you. Is this all you did? Who exactly are you!?" the middle-aged man said, almost collapsing on the ground in fear.

Because his henchmen who just died had their strength stage not inferior to him at all, but they died with just one blow, then would he himself survive?

"Who am I!? I'm who you're looking for. Or you aren't?" The young man who appeared was Zheng-Fu. After knowing that the middle-aged man thought of causing him trouble, Zheng-Fu blocked the sleeping points of Dong-Chen and his men to make them sleep. Then he took the transformation pill and transformed into Qi-Fu-Er's older brother, whom he had transformed into for attending the auction.

"No! I'm not looking for you at all! Not you!!! No!!!" The middle-aged man immediately denied that he was not looking for Zheng-Fu. He was trying his best to save his life.

"Is that so? Then I've got nothing to do with you if you're not looking for me!"

"Ah!!! I..."

Chop!!!

The middle-aged man had not even finished speaking.

The Qi energy wave transformed into a compact form until it was as sharp as a blade slashed out, cutting his head from his body. His head swirled, crashing to the ground with his eyes wide open, showing his displeasure and unwillingness to die through his eyes.

"Amitabha Buddha. May you rest in peace and do not exploit each other." Zheng-Fu put his hands together to pay obeisance as he recited the Buddhist prayer to purify his malice and pray for their souls to rest in peace. He turned to look at the dozens of corpses he had killed, then sighed and said,

"Huuugh... Well, I have to clean up these corpses before Dong-Chen and his men wake up!!" Then Zheng-Fu took off all of their dimensional rings and sucked their bodies into the dimensional space in the crystal orb to digest them through the mechanical camp magic stones.

Whiirr!!!

In the blink of an eye, dozens of corpses disappeared. Not a single drop of blood was left to be seen. The human corpse can be sucked away, but the blood cannot be sucked up. Instead, Zheng-Fu used his elemental abilities to evaporate the blood. Although the fire he created was not so hot, it was enough to make that blood disappear anyway.

After the area was cleaned up, Zheng Fu released the rest of the people he had controlled with the hallucinogenic herbs to come outside. He then knocked them out and led them to lie together around Dong-Chen and all the others.

The night passed quickly, and the sun finally rose upon the horizon, causing a soft light and a cold wind to swirl around until everyone opened their eyes.

"Um… Where is this place...?"

"Right! So, where has the g-string tiger girl gone?"

"Oh, my gold, my diamonds... Where? Where are they!?"

"Mama! Papa! Don't leave your kid. Come back, please!!!"

When the people that Zheng-Fu brought back from the crystal ball dimension space came to consciousness, they all shouted in chaos. Some cried, and some laughed, causing Dong-Chen and the others to suddenly startle up, except for Zhao-Ke, who was still sleepy.

"Wha... what is going on here?" was the first question that came up when Dong-Chen saw the expressions of his brothers, who looked like they had just recovered from using herbs and were laughing hard.

"It's the effect of the medicines they took. But soon they will be fine, don't worry." Zheng-Fu opened his eyes and explained to Dong-Chen about the symptoms that happened to those people, which were the effects of the medicines he gave them to eat.

"So, it's like that... But why do I feel so dizzy?" Dong-Chen said, raising his hand to hold his head in a daze, for he suddenly felt a headache.

"Maybe it's because of the medicine's effect as well. You can go and rest a little longer. Then we continue our journey later. Looks like Zhao-Ke still doesn't want to wake up!!" Zheng-Fu said with a smile before turning around and walking away.

*Who's going to tell you that he has blocked their points for them to sleep?!!*
