The threat had been eliminated. Lin Derong simply stood still, left in huge shock. After not seeing Qin Feng for half a month, he felt like this was his first time meeting him. To his surprise, Qin Feng had become extremely powerful. Judging from the fact that Qin Feng could donate 1,000 pounds of beast general’s flesh to the orphanage, Lin Derong somewhat guessed that Qin Feng had become more powerful than before.

The young ones were slowly becoming more powerful than the older generation.

Qin Feng had just singlehandedly killed two thugs and injured three more. The ones who were still breathing were lying on the ground, suffering in pain.

Qin Feng’s gaze moved toward Lin Derong, who was staring back at him. His heart did a few skips, wondering if Lin Derong saw him differently, thinking that he had turned cruel and had lost himself. With all things considered, however, Qin Feng hadn’t the single ounce of regret having killed and maimed his enemy.

So long Liu Meng was gone, he did not mind if Lin Derong hated him for being merciless.

“Qin Feng, don’t be afraid. They are all dead now!”

Instead of showing any displeasure, Lin Derong somehow noticed a change in Qin Feng’s look. In his mind, he believed Qin Feng was sh.e.l.l shocked after he killed those thugs. No matter what the boy did, Qin Feng was forever his dearest child.

“You let me deal with it! Don’t you worry!” said Lin Derong while tapping on Qin Feng’s shoulder.

Lin Derong saw him no differently. He breathed a sigh of relief.

“I’m… I’m fine!” replied Qin Feng with his head bowed.

He wasn’t about to let Lin Derong see his sunken expressions. With everything settled down, Lin Derong made a call to the patrol team. Minutes later, the patrol members arrived.

“Good G.o.d, Director! What happened here?!” exclaimed the shocked leader of the patrol. Being an F-Tier captain, he was mortified and started shaking when he saw the mangled corpses on the path.

Qin Feng quietly shuffled behind Lin Derong’s shadow, hoping to stay as inconspicuous as possible.

“These few thugs were armed and tried to extort me. Luckily, my kid was here to protect me! Otherwise, it would have been my body lying here instead of theirs!”

“What?! How dare those sleazebags come to my turf and pull these heinous crimes! Cuff them and throw ’em in the back! I want ’em off my streets!”

“Yes, captain!”

Everything had been dealt with real fast, with the officers dragging the five away in chains. Typically, members of the patrol had the highest authority in a colony. Considering the colony was inhabited by anything from the lowest of sc.u.ms to the highest of palaces, incidents like this were fairly common. The death of five thugs had n.o.body bothered.

“I know you left the orphanage five years ago. Word around the street is that I’m super stingy. But, to be honest, I’m actually very well connected! Just come and look for me if you are in trouble!” said Lin Derong.

If it was the old Qin Feng, Lin Derong would definitely not give him special care. The orphanage usually had too much to handle, and the orphans were pretty much on their own. Qin Feng was different, however. Lin Derong knew that he would become someone great in the future.
