Seeing the Nine-Headed Lion return, Xiao Feng's smile became even brighter, and he raised his hand to greet the Nine-Headed Lion.
The nine-headed lions were speechless at Xiao Feng's completely unconcerned expression.
Xiao Feng waved his hand, and the lion demon cubs obediently left the courtyard.
The nine-headed lion entered the room where Xiao Feng and the others had stayed without any expression, and Xiao Feng followed him in.
Before the nine-headed lion could even ask, Xiao Feng frankly confessed.
The people who went to the valley to cause him trouble today were his enemies.
Xiao Feng told the Nine-Headed Lion everything about the inexplicable conflict between himself and Xuan Yuanjian, as well as the subsequent actions taken against him by the Tianyi Sect.
"So, the other party wants to arrest you for no reason, and you don't even know what they want from you?"
The nine-headed lion was confused, but he managed to figure out the root cause.
"I'd also like to know. I haven't offended the Tianyi Sect, so why are they keeping a close eye on me? But you can't get that kind of information just by asking." Xiao Feng was also frustrated.
"Could it be that there's something on you that they want? Otherwise, if it were just a grudge, they wouldn't go to such lengths to sneak around and come all the way to the demon realm to kill you!" the nine-headed lion said disapprovingly.
"They're probably crazy. I don't really understand what they're trying to do." Xiao Feng shrugged and sighed helplessly.
"So what are you planning to do next?" the nine-headed lion asked with concern.
“Of course I have to leave. Since you stood up for me, they will definitely find out about our relationship. If I stay here, it will definitely implicate you.”
"If they come looking for me after I leave this place, just say it was a deal I made with you, asking you to help me out once. Now that the deal is done, you don't know where I'm going."
Xiao Feng had even thought of the possible scenarios for the Nine-Headed Lion.
The nine-headed lion was not particularly moved and said something like, "Let Xiao Feng stay in the Lion Demon Tribe, and I will definitely protect him."
He simply looked at Xiao Feng with a complicated expression.
Xiao Feng lowered his head and felt the gaze of the nine-headed lion, but he neither looked up nor said anything.
After seeing Xiao Feng's determination, the nine-headed lion felt a mix of emotions.
Ultimately, he still had to consider the interests of the entire tribe.
After a moment of silence, he sighed and said bluntly, "If you don't know which direction to go, just keep heading southwest."
"I will give you a token. Take this token to see our Lion Demon Ancestor. As long as the Ancestor is still alive, that so-called Tianyi Sect Master can't do anything to you."
“I really can’t leave you in the tribe, but I can’t just watch my friend die.”
The nine-headed lion took out an exquisitely crafted token and handed it to Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng accepted it without hesitation, then complained about the Nine-Headed Lion: "I won't die. They never intended to kill me from the beginning. It seems they wanted to take me back."
The nine-headed lion rolled its eyes and said indifferently, "What's the difference? You're still going to die if you're taken back."
Considering how generous the Nine-Headed Lion had been earlier, Xiao Feng decided not to bother arguing with such a tactless fellow.
"Alright, alright, I definitely can't go back to the valley, but remember to keep an eye on that territory for me, don't let other powerful demons take it away, I might come back in the future."
Xiao Feng said with a grin.
The nine-headed lion rolled its eyes, but still nodded.
Xiao Feng didn't want to bother the Nine-Headed Lion any longer, so he got up and left.
"Even if you're in a hurry, there's no need to rush. Rest here for the night before you leave," the nine-headed lion said, trying to persuade him to stay.
“That guy definitely has demons helping him in the demon realm. The longer I stay here, the more it proves that we have a good relationship. I don’t want to cause you any trouble.”
Xiao Feng spoke up frankly, and the nine-headed lion personally escorted him southwestward to the edge of the territory.
The nine-headed lion waved goodbye to Xiao Feng, who then tossed the lion a storage ring.
"This ring contains things that are beneficial to the lion demon, as well as several bottles of pills and some pill formulas that are helpful to the demon race."
After tossing the items to the Nine-Headed Lion, Xiao Feng waved to it and strode off in the southwest direction.
The nine-headed lion stood there in astonishment, the ring in his hand as hot as a burning stone, making him unsure whether he should continue holding it.
Only after Xiao Feng had gone far away did the Nine-Headed Lion release its divine sense and take a look inside the ring.
With just one glance, the nine-headed lion felt even more guilty.
The contents of this entire storage ring are of great benefit to the Lion Demon Tribe.
But Xiao Feng just casually handed it over to him.
Even though he couldn't take Xiao Feng in because of his own tribe, Xiao Feng still gave him to him.
"It is my honor to have met such a friend in this life. If you survive them, I hope I can see you again!"
The nine-headed lion whispered as it looked at the shadow that had completely disappeared.
Xiao Feng, who had left a small toy on the nine-headed lion, listened to the words relayed by the telepathic butterfly on the other side, and a triumphant smile appeared on his lips.
It wasn't that he intentionally plotted against the nine-headed lion.
He just wanted to see what kind of feelings the nine-headed lion had for him.
Xiao Feng wouldn't be angry that the Nine-Headed Lion refused to take him in because he had to consider the entire Lion Demon Tribe.
After all, the Nine-Headed Lion had told him where his ancestor was, thus providing Xiao Feng with an even greater protective umbrella.
Xiao Feng was so grateful to the Nine-Headed Lion that he would never blame him.
Xiao Feng didn't immediately go to find the ancestor mentioned by the Nine-Headed Lion. Instead, he found a quiet, secluded place where he wouldn't be discovered and went into the system space to comfort Zhao Yuwei.
When Zhao Yuwei woke up, she found herself in a place that looked exactly like the valley.
Xiao Feng is not here.
Zhao Yuwei wanted to get out of the valley, but the array that passed through the valley caused her to re-enter it.
It was the appearance of the Devouring Python that calmed Zhao Yuwei down a bit.
Zhao Yuwei then realized that Xiao Feng had run into the group of people who were looking for trouble with him.
"Are you hurt? Are you in any trouble? Where are those guys now?" Zhao Yuwei immediately asked Xiao Feng with concern when she heard that he had been targeted.
"It's alright, Senior Sister. Although that guy was quite strong, I still managed to escape death. Don't worry, Senior Sister, I will definitely protect you!" Xiao Feng's eyes were sincere.
