Before long, she squatted down in front of a street stall again.
Ye Feng walked over helplessly and said, "That's enough. Look how many things I've bought for you along the way."
Bai Yue's face immediately showed an embarrassed expression.
Suddenly, a deep, muffled male voice came from behind.
“My dad said that most of the things here are fake, so you’d better not buy them.”
Night Breeze and White Moon turned around together and saw a young man carrying a large bundle standing behind them.
This young man had a round face and a kind of honest and simple appearance. His coarse linen clothes were almost faded from washing.
Upon hearing the young man's words, the stall owner immediately became furious: "What did you say? You dare say that the things here are fake? You're asking for trouble, aren't you?"
The street vendor suddenly stood up, gathering a surge of true energy in his hand.
"I'm so sorry, my son has mental problems, he's an idiot, I'm so sorry for offending him."
A middle-aged man in his forties strode over and greeted them with a cupped hand.
Although he spoke politely, a surge of true energy also emanated from his hands as he cupped them in greeting.
The middle-aged man's inner energy was green, giving people a feeling of vitality, which made his hands appear green.
"You think an apology is all it takes to break the rules? Is it that easy?" the stall owner sneered, seemingly unfazed by the martial arts prowess displayed by the middle-aged man.
Moreover, seeing that this silly boy was carrying a big bundle, he concluded that this group of people had just arrived at Ten Absolutes Island or Crane King City. They were unaware of the details of this place and had no backing. That was why he spoke so boldly and did not back down at all.
At the same time, the stall owner gave a signal to the people around him.
The people around were clearly accomplices of the stall owner. They immediately stood up and moved closer, subtly blocking the escape route for the simple-minded boy and his father.
The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he said coldly, "I've already apologized, what more do you want? Don't think I don't have backing!"
At this point, the middle-aged man stepped forward and shouted four words: "May Heaven and Earth live as long as we, and may the dragon and phoenix soar to great heights!"
Upon hearing these eight words, the stall owners immediately fell silent.
They all stepped back, lowered their heads, and pretended that nothing had happened.
The stall owner who had been scolding the middle-aged man coldly replied, "You're from the Heaven and Earth Society? Heh, let me give you a piece of advice: keep an eye on your foolish son! Otherwise, even the Heaven and Earth Society can't protect you!"
Despite his defiant words, the stall owner clearly had no intention of pursuing the matter further.
The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, then glared fiercely at his mentally challenged son: "I told you not to wander around, but you wouldn't listen! Wandering around is one thing, but you've offended people too. Do you want me to die even faster?"
"I'm just telling the truth," the silly boy said, scratching the back of his head.
"You still have the nerve to talk back?"
The middle-aged man, enraged, gave the foolish young man a sharp rap on the head.
Then, the middle-aged man looked over at Ye Feng and Bai Yue.
"You two are new here, not locals?"
Bai Yue wisely kept quiet, knowing that this situation was best left to Ye Feng to handle.
Night Breeze smiled and said, "Yes, we are indeed new here, not from around here."
Ye Feng had a good impression of the middle-aged man in front of him and his mentally challenged son.
Although it was only their first meeting, it was already quite kind of him to take the initiative to offer a helpful reminder.
Perhaps inland, this would be a small matter, but on the lawless Ten Absolutes Island, in this chaotic land without order, such kindness is all the more precious.
"I just arrived here with my family, hoping to make a living. It's fate that we met. Would you like to come with us? I can't guarantee you'll become rich and change your destiny here, but you can definitely get a meal," the middle-aged man said with a hearty laugh.
Ye Feng wasn't familiar with the area, so after thinking for a moment, he nodded in agreement.
In this way, we can follow this middle-aged man to learn about the environment of Crane King City and even the entire Ten Absolute Islands.
So Ye Feng and Bai Yue followed the father and son and left the stall.
On the way, Ye Feng chatted with the middle-aged man and learned that his name was Wang Zongde and that his mentally challenged son was named Wang Dachun.
“There are more than a dozen of us, all of the same clan,” Wang Zongde said.
“My brother and I are from the same clan,” Bai Yue said with a smile.
Wang Dachun immediately stared blankly at Bai Yue and said, "I thought you were siblings, but it turns out you're just siblings from the same clan."
"Say less," Wang Zongde said coldly.
"All you do is insult me."
Wang Dachun muttered a couple of things, then shut his mouth and stopped uttering a sound.
As Wang Zongde walked, he said, “I came to Shijue Island more than 20 years ago. I fought a battle here and made contributions, which allowed me to return home in glory. After returning, I started a family and built a career, but unexpectedly, a sudden disaster struck, and all my family property and wealth vanished. With no other choice, I brought my wife, children, and brothers from my clan back to Shijue Island, hoping to try my luck here.”
It seems that Wang Zongde is not a prisoner exiled here, but someone who came here to try his luck and change his fate.
But that's not the point.
Night Wind asked, "You said you encountered a battle on Ten Absolutes Island? What kind of battle could there be on Ten Absolutes Island?"
Wang Zongde lowered his voice and said, "Don't you know that there are natives on Ten Absolutes Island?"
"Tell me in detail."
Wang Zongde then gave a lengthy explanation.
Night Breeze finally realized and gained a more comprehensive and profound understanding of the Ten Absolute Islands.
It turns out that there are native people on Shijue Island, and the native people of Shijue Island are divided into several races. Some have wings on their backs, and some look like wild beasts. Each native tribe has its own distinctive characteristics.
Because they are different from ordinary people, the natives of Ten Absolutes Island are called the Demon Clan.
"The demons often attack our human cities and plunder our food and mineral resources, so there are not only wars on Ten Absolutes Island, but they are also quite frequent," Wang Zongde continued.
"I see."
Night Breeze smiled and nodded.
Night Wind is now very curious about the battle on Ten Absolute Islands and the Demon Clan.
Ye Feng and Wang Zongde were talking, and Wang Dachun was listening in.
He seemed to be learning about this for the first time as well, his eyes wide with surprise.
“Father, how come I don’t know anything about what you’re talking about?” Wang Dachun asked.
"Nonsense, I gave birth to you after I returned to the inland, of course you wouldn't know!" Wang Zongde said irritably.
"Oh, I see."
Wang Dachun scratched his head and nodded.
As Ye Feng and Wang Zongde walked and talked, they crossed the street and saw the clansmen that Wang Zongde had mentioned earlier.
