Sky Island Orchard, in the open space in front of the bamboo house.
More than a dozen low-level monsters knelt on the ground, surrounded by a group of Leng family monsters who were eyeing them menacingly.
Leng Tianpeng made only a slight threat, and several of them betrayed Xia Tianqiong.
However, they usually work on the island and don't know much, so they can only provide some scattered information.
They learned from Leng Tianpeng and the others that their son had not died, but had been bound by a contract.
As for how the contract was made, these rudimentary mysteries are unclear.
Leng Tianpeng breathed a slight sigh of relief, then looked around.
They discovered that the island was planted with hundreds of fruit trees of all kinds, far more than when they had given them to Xia Tianqiong, and some of them were clearly the original forms of the Tree Demon Clan.
The Void Clan and the Tree Clan fought a great battle, suffering considerable losses, but the spoils of war were inexplicably stolen.
The scene before us is enough to prove that it was Xia Tianqiong who stole it.
That man deserves to die!
Leng Tianpeng's eyes flashed with anger. "Leave a few to guard the island. The rest of you, come with me to the human city below. There are still his men there. I'm going to take them all under control."
From those novice monsters, it roughly knew some things about the city below.
As soon as he finished speaking, he strode out and disappeared into the void, followed by the other strange beings from the Leng family. Only five or six remained on the island to guard against Xia Tianqiong's sudden return.
A dozen minutes later, downstairs at the former Administration Bureau building.
The delivery ghost, the game ghost, Jiang Yu, Liu Junhai, Qiu Ziren, and the pig demon ghost were all controlled and suffered serious injuries.
During their capture, they all went through a fight, but their opponents were too strong, and even the fierce-level pig demon was easily defeated.
Leng Tianpeng surveyed them indifferently and slowly said, "Whoever can voluntarily reveal information about Xia Tianqiong can live, otherwise they will die."
The delivery guy, Jiang Yu, and the game guy looked at each other, their expressions a little flustered, but none of them said anything.
The pig demon, however, spoke up in a panic, "We all signed contracts with the human lord, so please don't make things difficult for us. We'll die if we betray him."
Leng Tianpeng strode towards the pig demon, and an aura of pressure emanated from his body, causing everyone present, including the demons, to feel immense pressure.
"If you don't speak up, you'll die now. If you do speak up, when I find him, I can have him break your contract."
You'd better think this through. I've already crushed that tree-spirit on the sky island; it didn't even have a chance to regain its sentience.
Upon hearing this, the deliveryman suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with grief and indignation.
But then, it was forcibly suppressed.
It suddenly begged for mercy: "I'll talk, I'll talk, please don't kill us."
Jiang Yu stared in astonishment at the delivery guy, then shouted angrily, "Foreigner, Tianqiong values you so much, how could you betray him?"
Game Ghost and Qiu Ziren glared at each other, wanting to say something, but in the end neither of them spoke.
Liu Junhai stared intently at the takeout delivery guy, but didn't say anything either.
Leng Tianpeng stroked his beard and looked at the delivery guy with admiration. "Speak, and I guarantee you won't die."
The delivery guy nodded repeatedly, and then began to talk about Xia Tianqiong's situation.
Jiang Yu and the game ghost were furious when they realized that it had really betrayed Xia Tianqiong.
Just then, Liu Junhai suddenly raised his hand and unleashed a strange spell.
He tried to kill the delivery guy outright!
However, surrounded by numerous demons, and with more than one demon general among them, he had no chance of succeeding.
Leng Tianpeng merely flicked his sleeve; without even using any trickery, the surging Netherworld power alone shattered his magic.
"Since you're courting death, then so be it!"
Leng Tianpeng made a grabbing motion in mid-air, and Liu Junhai was lifted up by the air.
With a soft pop, his body was instantly crushed, and shattered flesh and blood splattered everywhere.
A head, its eyes wide open in death, rolled to the side with a gurgling sound.
Leng Tianpeng knew that Xia Tianqiong possessed the Infant Fruit, and as long as he still had a head and soul, he could revive this human.
With a wave of his hand, his head exploded.
It always likes to go all the way and leave no room for compromise.
The deliveryman, Gui, Jiang Yu, and the others watched this scene in astonishment; none of them expected Liu Junhai to suddenly make a move.
He did not sign any contract with Xia Tianqiong; he is a free man. Even if Xia Tianqiong dies, he will be fine. He is the last person who should stand up here.
But it was he who stood up and tried to stop the food delivery scam.
Jiang Yu suddenly realized that Xia Tianqiong valued this person so much, but did not force him to sign a contract because this person was someone she could trust.
Leng Tianpeng glanced at it indifferently, "Go on."
The delivery guy shrank back and continued speaking.
It described a lot about Xia Tianqiong, even mentioning the great battle between the Void Clan and the Tree Clan, which Xia Tianqiong orchestrated, and explained in detail how it happened.
Leng Tianpeng frowned. He had only suspected it before, but now he could finally be sure.
The deliveryman bowed his head and bent over, his face full of flattery. "I can call him. Just say there's trouble here, and he'll come back to fix it."
"Once I bring him back, you absolutely must help me break the contract! He forced me to sign the Human Lord contract in the first place, and now that I finally have the chance to break it, I'm truly grateful to you."
Leng Tianpeng nodded slightly, "Call him back now, and I guarantee I'll force him to terminate his contract with you."
The delivery guy immediately beamed with joy, then took out his satellite phone and called Xia Tianqiong.
The call was quickly connected. It smiled and looked at Leng Tianpeng before slowly saying, "Master, we've run into some trouble in Lin'an City and need you to come back and handle it."
