Urban Immortal Doctor Master
Chapter 608 - 608 607 Join the Merchant Team

608: 607: Join the Merchant Team 608: 607: Join the Merchant Team Based on the information Tang Feng had gathered, he could determine that Xia City was safe; Nandu, however, was uncertain.

Still, the small town had a Transmission Array directly to Xia City and possessed farms, making it completely self-sufficient and worry-free.

Moreover, Tang Feng believed that the women had the capability to solve any problems.

With the resources he had left behind, their cultivation probably wouldn’t be too low.

After leaving the Tea House, Tang Feng strolled down the streets and soon saw a large parking lot by the roadside.

Curious, he walked into a large business hall next to it.

The place turned out to be packed with people.

The first thing Tang Feng saw was various counters surrounded by cultivators chatting and laughing, their conversations flowing freely.

Of course, there were also endless quarrels and haggling, similar to a marketplace, but somewhat more upscale.

After making a round, Tang Feng finally understood that this was a trading center, dealing in all sorts of items, both mundane and treasured.

In one corner, martial artists awaiting recruitment by merchant teams gathered.

Usually, merchant teams would come to this corner to recruit people.

Working with a merchant team wasn’t easy, so the pay was extraordinarily high.

As Tang Feng passed by, he was stopped by an energetic-looking woman.

“You, come with us.

One hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones for one journey.

Are you in or out?” The woman was pretty, displaying a kind of toughness usually seen in men.

Tang Feng wanted to refuse, but suddenly felt intrigued and asked, “Where to?”

“Nandu.

If you perform well during the journey, there will be a bonus in your reward,” the woman explained.

“Alright, but isn’t it dangerous since Nandu is under Demon Clan control?”

“There is some risk, yes, but where there is risk, there is opportunity.

The Demon Clan needs our Human Clan’s goods; they won’t harm the merchant teams otherwise how would they continue to stay here?” the woman replied with a smile.

With that said, Tang Feng no longer hesitated and nodded in agreement.

The woman smiled in response, then recruited a few more people.

Once everyone was ready, they set off in vehicles.

Dozens of large trucks slowly left the city.

Tang Feng was assigned to one of them.

Unable to sit in the cab, he sat in the cargo box to guard the goods.

As for why he didn’t use the Sumeru Ring, Tang Feng was unclear.

Perhaps the ring was already full.

The martial artist guarding the truck with Tang Feng was a local from Nandu, traveling between two cities every couple of days and earning a decent monthly income.

Likewise, warriors protecting the goods were respected by the Demon Clan.

After all, these humans were serving them.

The martial artist sharing the truck with Tang Feng was named Liang Dong, not yet forty years old and in the Innate Realm, which was quite commendable as he had already transcended the mundane.

Moreover, in recent years, he had earned enough to buy a house, leading a relatively comfortable life.

He had a son and a daughter, a happy family.

As for becoming a cultivator, he didn’t dare to hope too high.

From him, Tang Feng also learned some details about the Demon Clan and unexpectedly heard news of some acquaintances.

The Great Cave Heaven’s Three Clans, Phoenix, Vermilion Bird, and Golden Crow, were the most powerful forces.

These three supported and watched over each other, and other members of the Demon Clan did not dare to target them unless they possessed the strength to wipe out all three.

Clearly, besides the Tiger Clan, Giant Ape Clan, Purple Elephant Clan, Golden Lion Clan, and Platinum Python Clan, which could compete with the Three Clans, the others could only look up to them.

It was well known that the Three Clans were the most likely to become Immortal Beasts.

The progress of the convoy wasn’t slow; they could cover a few hundred kilometers a day.

However, the poor road conditions and potential attacks from Fierce Beasts slowed them down considerably.

If everything went smoothly, they could arrive in two days; if not, it could take ten days or even half a month.

Rainy days were particularly miserable.

Fortunately, there were quite a few houses along the way where they could stop for the night, though these dwellings, long uninhabited, felt somewhat eerie.

That night, they stayed in several of these buildings.

Tonight, Tang Feng was on watch duty with Liang Dong.

The two of them chatted softly and drank wine, enjoying the moment.

Such moments were brief, a burst of hurried footsteps compelled Tang Feng and Liang Dong to tense their nerves involuntarily, suspecting they could be killed at any moment.

“I’ll stay behind, you go inform the captain, don’t make a fuss, or it will attract more enemies,” Tang Feng said.

“Okay, I’ll call for help,” Liang Dong was very scared, as staying behind seemed like certain death to him.

Tang Feng scanned the area with his Divine Sense, and sure enough, there were over a thousand fierce beasts surrounding them.

The leader of the demon beasts was no ordinary creature, being above the seventh layer of the Tribulation Crossing Realm, and unmatched in combat power among its peers.

Soon after, a woman led a group of martial artists over, among them two cultivators, but they were only in the Refining God Realm, clearly insufficient even as a gap filler for the demon beast.

What to do?

The woman was extremely anxious and felt powerless, never imagining that she would encounter such a situation.

“Everyone, prioritize your safety, preserving life is what matters most.”

Upon hearing the woman’s words, Tang Feng’s eyes brightened.

It was great that she could say such a thing.

The woman definitely did not expect, because of this remark, she managed to save all the merchandise.

At that moment, some martial artists started to flee, thinking of escape at such a time was practically seeking death, and several screams later, all fell silent.

Completely surrounded by demon beasts, everyone’s hearts sank to despair.

“What a pity, trouble has finally struck,” Liang Dong said with a grim face.

As someone regularly dealing in goods, he clearly understood what encountering demon beasts entailed.

These demon beasts were already very intelligent and obedient.

The disobedient ones couldn’t even leave their clan.

It was to alter this status quo that he had thought of protecting the merchants.

Seeing that Tang Feng and a few others hadn’t left, the woman stomped her foot in frustration, “Get back inside, these demon beasts are not something you low-level martial artists can withstand.”

“It’s alright, getting some experience isn’t a bad idea,” Tang Feng remarked.

“You, do as you please, it’s your own fault if you die,” the woman said, taking the cultivators towards the leader of the demon beasts.

“What do you want?” the woman asked the Horned Scale Demon Beast.

“Leave the goods, and you may go,” the Horned Scale Demon Beast spoke in human language, startling Liang Dong and the others.

It was known that high-level demon beasts generally don’t speak, except in front of their kin, and in front of other races, they mostly exterminated without exceptions.

“Elder, could you leave some for us juniors?”

“No discussions, leave or die, you have one hundred moments,” the Horned Scale Demon Beast said.

The woman shook her head helplessly, realizing this loss would render a month’s efforts completely futile.

“Let’s go,” the woman got into the vehicle, and everyone followed suit, none wanting to lose their lives.

Suddenly, the woman noticed an incredible thing – Tang Feng stood before the demon beast, conversing with it.

Was this possible?

She rubbed her eyes vigorously, finding no mistake, she then got out of the vehicle and without a word, pulled Tang Feng away.

Suddenly feeling something was amiss, she looked back to see that he had no intention of leaving and was even smiling occasionally.

This was impossible!

Everyone in the merchant team saw Tang Feng in a different light now.

After the communication, all the demon beasts dispersed, and tranquility returned in the blink of an eye.

“Come with me,” the woman said deeply looking at him, “Who exactly are you, and what intentions do you have by infiltrating my merchant team?”

“Captain is joking, if I had any ulterior motives, I wouldn’t bother with these matters now,” Tang Feng said with a smile.

“Hmph, good that you know your place, thanks for just now,” she said brusquely and walked away, carrying a scent of fragrance with her.
