Chapter 90: Turn Right to the Brothel

Si Zheng exclaimed, “I didn’t expect these bugs to be afraid of this thing.”

Qin Feng replied, “I discovered this by accident before. Sir Si, as long as you pour all the Gu worms from the gourd into this container, the Heart Devouring Gu will be eradicated.”

Si Zheng understood. With a tap of his right hand’s two fingers, the mouth of the gourd he carried opened, and a black sphere instantly fell into the vessel containing the Vermilion fruits. After a violent shake, it turned into blood.

The Heart Devouring Gu, originally invisible to the naked eye before consuming heart blood, now appeared as a black sphere due to their large quantity.

Qin Feng placed a basket of Vermilion fruits in front of Yang He and said, “The waters of the Qiyuan River will eventually flow into Qiyuan City. We don’t need to ensure there are no fish in the river. We just need to make sure there are no Heart Devouring Gu in the water flowing into the inner city.”

Yang He suddenly understood, “I get it. As long as we put these fruits at the entrance of the river into the city, the Heart Devouring Gu will be eliminated. This way, the people in the city can be safe.”N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.

“Yeah,” Qin Feng nodded, but he also noted a drawback to this method. People in the city would likely detect a pungent smell when using the river water.

I wonder if the people of Qiyuan City can handle spicy food. Well, I’m here to promote hot pot anyway; it’s a good opportunity for them to get used to it early, Qin Feng thought.

With the troublesome matter resolved, the group relaxed and chatted for a while.

“I need to report to Lord Zhou. I’ll take my leave.” Yang He clasped his fists and turned towards the platform.

At this moment, Qin Feng hurriedly caught up.

“Is there something else?” Yang He looked curious.

“Besides the reward you promised, don’t forget to mention compensating me for my True Manifestation of Life Source. Remind Lord Zhou for me,” Qin Feng whispered, as if wary of something.

Yang He raised an eyebrow, “As soon as tonight, or at the latest tomorrow morning, Lord Zhou will surely thank you. Wouldn’t it be better if you bring it up yourself then?”

I wish I could, but I’m afraid of getting on Lord Zhou’s bad side. He might cause trouble for me later, Qin Feng chuckled nervously, “Please, help me mention it to him. I appreciate it.”

“Alright, but I can’t guarantee he’ll listen. I know Lord Zhou quite well; he’s always frugal. Sometimes, he can be a bit tight-fisted.”

Qin Feng widened his eyes, looking surprised. Did you just speak ill of your Lord behind his back? Are you asking for trouble? He dryly laughed, “Frugal, right. Please, Brother Yang, help me mention it. I’m counting on you.”

Qin Feng and Cang Fei Lan both showed skeptical expressions at his words.

Ignoring them, Si Zheng turned and left. When he stepped out of the Demon Slaying Department’s gate, his body turned sharply to the right.

At that moment, Qin Feng shouted, “Lord Si, I almost forgot. Due to the recent troubles in the city, the brothel in Qiyuan City hasn’t opened its doors yet!”

Si Zheng’s body paused, immediately turned in another direction, and then waved goodbye.

“Lord Si, you’re truly a straightforward person,” Qin Feng sighed sincerely.

Suddenly, Cang Feilan asked, “How did you know that the brothel hasn’t opened its doors yet?”

Qin Feng’s face stiffened for a moment, then he calmly said, “I heard it accidentally while talking to the city’s people.”

“During casual conversation, do you still discuss the Red House?” Cang Feilan sneered.

“Who said we don’t? When he mentioned the Red House, I was also taken aback. Perhaps the Red House is a significant feature of Qiyuan City.” Qin Feng replied with a dry laugh.

Not good, Miss Cang’s impression of me must be biased. I need to find a way to change the topic.

With this in mind, Qin Feng immediately spoke, “Miss Cang, about the method of cultivating from the seventh rank to the sixth rank in the Hundred Ghosts Dao Lineage.”

“Earlier, you asked about the opportunity for a seventh-rank Hundred Ghosts Dao Lineage to advance to the sixth rank.”

The two spoke in unison, and their eyes met, creating a moment of silence.

“Do you know?” they both asked simultaneously again. Qin Feng couldn’t help but smirk; this couldn’t be just a coincidence.

In Cang Feilan’s faintly blue eyes, a hint of displeasure seemed to flicker. She didn’t say anything and turned away alone.

Qin Feng looked at her graceful figure and scratched his head.

Did I say something wrong again?
