World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others

Chapter 15: Preventive measures

Du Ge showed the Feng Family what efficient growth speed and loyalty meant, so things couldn't be delayed any longer.

Speed is the essence of war.

Shortly after breakfast, the Feng Family prepared the luggage for Du Ge and the others.

Du Ge, Feng Yunjie, Feng Shiyi, and a direct disciple named Zhang Han, the four of them dressed in new clothes and rode off into the martial world, intending to visit major sects under the guise of traveling, searching for other hidden Heavenly Demons, either subduing or killing them to prevent them from being used by others.

Feng Shiren watched them leave.

Standing in the farewell procession, Feng Jiu looked at the departing Du Ge, and the stone in his heart finally fell, making him inexplicably relieved.

Biting into a piece of dried meat, Feng Jiu's eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of mockery. There was no denying that Feng Qi was skilled in the use of keywords, but he was too arrogant. He actually thought he could control everything in the simulation field. It was unknown which family had raised such a fool. He was truly childish and laughable!

Farewell, my dear Brother Seven!

I will give you a gift later.

This gift is called a lesson. It will make you understand the cruelty of the simulation field, as a return for not eliminating me. Just like your extreme theory, it will benefit you for a lifetime. You should know that setbacks are the most precious wealth in one's life...

It wasn't until Du Ge disappeared from sight that Feng Jiu turned around and looked at Feng Shiren, smiling and saying, "Family Master, go back. Brother Qi has left, and I will be the one to protect the Feng Family from now on..."

Smack!

Smack!

Before Feng Jiu could react, Feng Shiren's hand was already in front of his chest, tapping a few times and sealing his acupoints.

Feng Jiu's voice abruptly stopped, and he anxiously asked, "Family Master, what are you doing?"

"Mr. Jiu, I'm sorry. After Brother Qi said that you were rebellious, he would definitely cause trouble after leaving. We should control you early to prevent irreparable losses." Feng Shiren said.

"..." Feng Jiu was stunned, then his face turned pale. Fine beads of sweat formed on his forehead as he accompanied his smiling face, "Family Master, is there a misunderstanding here? Yes, I wanted to escape from the Feng Family before, but later I received the Feng Family's favor and had already sworn to protect the Feng Family. You can't just listen to Feng Qi's slander..."

"Brother Qi said that you are too extreme in your actions. For the sake of growth, you can even eat until your stomach bursts, and you can eat while sitting on the toilet. You endure what ordinary people cannot. A person who is so cruel to themselves, will they be good for the Feng Family when they grow up? Right now, you are just greedy. When your greed grows to the point of swallowing the Feng Family, it will be too late to deal with you..." Feng Shiren shook his head, his gaze carrying a hint of pity. "Mr. Jiu, blame it on your attribute as a Glutton!"

"..." Feng Jiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and he trembled uncontrollably.

He knew.

He knew everything.

He knew his own disguise, he knew the true meaning of being a Glutton!

What childishness?

What kindness?

It was all fake. It turned out that he was the naive one...

He still felt somewhat unwilling, "Family Master, Feng Qi is also crazy and extreme in his actions. He proposed the extreme theory. Aren't you afraid that he will harm the Feng Family?"

Feng Shiren said, "His extreme is protection. Who wouldn't want an extra guardian in the family?"

Feng Jiu was about to explode. He stabilized his emotions and said, "Family Master, have you ever considered that he is deceiving you? This world of yours is completely illusory. Moreover, his keyword may not be protection, but deception. He can deceive you all just like he deceived me, and he can also grow from it..."

"Indeed, Brother Qi hit the nail on the head. In order to drag him down, you will deny everything about him from the root." Feng Shiren chuckled lightly, and the pity in his gaze turned into disdain. "Whether it's deception or protection, as long as it benefits the Feng Family, I don't care. I don't even care if there is a Demon Realm. Seeing you all, I know that this martial world is really going to be chaotic. This chaos is not about having more secret manuals or opening a treasure trove, it is chaos from the root. The chaotic times will involve everyone in the martial world. Self-preservation is the lowest strategy, and I am not yet senile. Mr. Jiu, you are still too young..."

"Fuck!" Feng Jiu cursed angrily, his face turning pale in an instant. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva. "Family Master, can you give me a chance? Let me prove to you that Feng Qi is really deceiving you, and prove that I am more useful than Feng Qi. They haven't gone far yet, and it's not too late to salvage the situation."

"No need." Feng Shiren said, "Brother Qi said that Glutton is a good keyword. We can keep you captive and experiment with your growth progress by controlling your diet. We can find ways to restrain the Heavenly Demons from you. When dealing with other Heavenly Demons in the future, we won't be in a panic. Mr. Jiu, I have to say, your perspective is far inferior to Brother Qi's."

Despair instantly filled Feng Jiu's heart, and he exploded in anger, "Brother Qi said, Brother Qi said. Feng Shiren, you believe everything he says. I think you're just a fool. One day, you will regret it..."

Feng Shiren smiled and looked at the enraged Feng Jiu, saying softly, "Mr. Jiu, don't panic. Actually, we can also cooperate. I am very interested in the other version of the world you mentioned. Moreover, since Feng Qi has harmed you like this, we can also discuss how to restrain him. How to identify the keywords of other Heavenly Demons? I don't like putting all my eggs in one basket..."

Feng Jiu was horrified.

At this moment, he suddenly understood why his teacher said, "Hide yourself as much as possible, don't try to change the world. The more exposed you are, the faster you will die."

The natives in the simulation field were too cunning, each one of them was an actor.

It was all because of Feng Qi, that fool. He had made everyone suffer!

...

The stagnant attributes began to increase again, and they increased by quite a bit.

As expected.The effects of the Keywords were more pronounced on the contestants.

Du Ge came to a new conclusion: the setting of the Simulation Field was designed for the contestants to slaughter each other!

A brutal survival game!

Perhaps Feng Jiu wasn't as bad as he imagined, but leaving without stabbing him in the back, Du Ge always felt unsatisfied. He decided to trust his intuition.

As the saying goes, once doubt arises, guilt is established.

The Simulation Field is a trap, suspicion is enough, no evidence is needed.

Who made backstabbing his character setting? The role he played was inherently a villain. There was nothing wrong with maintaining his character setting. Who would want to challenge human nature in the fate-determining Simulation Field?

In the survival game, being kind to enemies is being cruel to oneself.

Blame Feng Jiu for being too naive. Give him a lesson, hoping he will have a smoother life in the future!

Du Ge looked at the number one shining on the individual ranking, a curve rose at the corner of his mouth. How good it was now, he had backstabbed Feng Jiu, maintained the Feng Family, and his attributes had also increased.

Three birds with one stone, only losing Feng Jiu's freedom, it was simply too cost-effective.

As for how Feng Jiu ended up?

Whether it would ruin his own affairs was no longer within Du Ge's consideration.

After leaving the Feng Family, he had no plans to return.

The sky is high for birds to fly, and the sea is wide for fish to leap. Just like Guo Jing stepping out of the desert, and Yang Guo stepping out of the ancient tomb, even if he really would return, his Martial Arts would have already reached an immeasurable height, not something a small Feng Family could suppress.
