Seeing that Di Moyu had misunderstood, Zhen Yun held the box in both hands and quickly explained, "It is already a great compensation that you are willing to give me this treasure. I would be willing to blow up ten more Tian Ce Yi even if it meant you. How could I care about a mere meal fee?"
"Why is that?" Di Moyu asked, puzzled.
"It's...it's the antidote."
Seeing this, Zhen Yun could only step forward and whisper, "You haven't given me the antidote to seal my Xuan power yet."
"Oh, you mean this?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Fanya rolled his eyes and said, "There is an antidote, but even without the antidote, it will resolve itself in two days."
"Yes, yes, so to prevent you from doing anything underhanded, we won't give you the antidote."
Upon hearing this, Jin Yue quickly echoed, "You'll be fine on your own in a couple of days."
"This...this is just talk, what if..." Zhen Yun looked aggrieved and troubled.
Are you afraid we're lying to you?
Ji Fanya narrowed his eyes and raised the small cauldron in his hand. "Is this necessary?"
"Ah, no...no need, no need."
Upon seeing this, Zhen Yun shuddered and quickly jumped back several steps, waving his hands repeatedly, "What a...what a great reward from you, sir! Please wait a moment."
But in my heart, I was screaming, "Please, you little devils, leave quickly!"
Otherwise, it would be too late, and the Zhou family would come to demand an explanation, leaving him no chance to escape.
"You were the one who stopped us from leaving just now, and now you're telling us to get out."
Jin Yue glared at Zhen Yun with annoyance before getting into the carriage and leaving the city lord's mansion.
"They're finally gone! Let's go too, hurry up!"
As soon as the others were out of sight, Zhen Yun jumped up in a panic, told everyone to pack their bags and run away with them.
In these impoverished little places, the lords of each city are appointed voluntarily. Anyone with the ability can become a city lord. The emperor is far away, and there are not many resources to collect, so generally no one cares.
That's why Ji Fanya's father died so quietly.
"Excuse me, is the person sitting inside my little benefactor?"
As Jun Feijue and his entourage approached the city gate exit, many city residents suddenly appeared along the way and knelt down before them.
One of them, leading a child and an old woman, came out and knelt in front of the carriage.
"Miss, look."
Jin Yue opened the carriage curtain and looked at Jun Feijue questioningly.
"You are truly our benefactor! Please accept our bow!"
Upon seeing Di Moyu and his entourage, all the kneeling citizens bowed and kowtowed in unison.
"What is this for?"
Jun Feijue frowned and asked, puzzled.
“My benefactor, my daughter-in-law was kidnapped and killed by those thieves from the Zhou family, and my son was also beaten to death by them. Now, Heaven has opened its eyes and sent my benefactor to kill those evil people.”
As the old woman spoke, she pulled the child beside her and said, "Quickly, kowtow to your benefactors. They have avenged your parents."
"Thank you, my benefactor."
The child was very obedient and immediately kowtowed three times solemnly.
"The Zhou family will probably come again."
Seeing this, Di Moyu's eyes flickered slightly, and he said calmly, "When the time comes, just tell us our names, and we'll handle the rest."
"Thank you, my benefactor."
Upon hearing this, all the people in the city kowtowed once again.
This is their home. If the Zhou family investigates, they will inevitably suffer their wrath. But if they proactively report information about the enemy, things will be different.
These city dwellers all understood that Emperor Moyu was helping them.
This person may seem stern and unsmiling, but he is actually a kind-hearted person with a cold exterior but a warm heart.
