Douluo Continent: Who exactly is my father?

"To prevent you and your daughter from escaping, we will take her away first. Three days later, we will return your daughter to you after you pay us."

As he spoke, the man rubbed his hands together, and his claws gradually reached for the little girl.

The father used his last bit of strength to protect his daughter.

Suddenly, a blue light flashed, and a trident landed between the two sides, its immense power instantly forcing the seven men back.

Chapter Sixteen: Adopting a Little Girl, The First Kill

This sudden attack immediately enraged the seven members of the Fierce God Team.

"Get out of here quickly. It's just ten gold soul coins. I'll pay for it."

As he spoke, Bofeng stepped out from a corner and tossed ten gold soul coins to the man leading the Fierce God Squad.

The man caught the ten gold soul coins that were tossed to him.

He glanced at Bofeng, then his eyes darted around and he immediately said with dissatisfaction, "These ten gold soul coins are far from enough. That halberd almost hit us just now. Quickly compensate us for our mental distress."

"Oh?" Bofeng came to the injured man's side, helped him up, and said with interest, "I've long heard that the Fierce God Squad bullies the weak and does evil. It seems that what they say is true."

"You kid is courting death!"

Years of fighting have instilled in them a sense of awe and disdain for anyone who might slander them or disobey their orders.

A huge fist came crashing down, but Bo Feng remained calm and composed, using his halberd in one hand to forcefully push it back.

"Click—"

With a crisp cracking sound, unsurprisingly, the man's entire arm was broken.

Namikaze's expression changed, and he said calmly, "Leave now, or your lives... may be in danger."

"Get them! Kill them, and someone will take care of it for us!" shouted the captain of the Fierce God team, who had lost his hand.

The other six released their martial souls, all of which were the Berserk Giant Bear, a very powerful beast martial soul. The uneven soul rings under their feet bloomed one by one, and all six of them were Soul Masters.

In the Silves Grand Arena, such a team is practically a human weapon, a killing machine devoid of any emotion.

The men exuded a strong smell of blood, and the terrifying pressure emanating from them frightened the little girl, who buried her head in her father's blood-stained chest.

Even though her father's chest was covered in blood and his breath was growing weaker, the little girl was truly fearless.

"Young, young brother," the injured man said softly, "You should leave quickly. The Fierce God Team is just too powerful. To be honest, I am also a Soul Master. I once fought in the Silves Grand Soul Arena. Back then, we were very arrogant and even became the most dazzling presence in the entire Grand Soul Arena."

"But one day, the Fierce God Team came. They fought without regard for their own lives. All six of my teammates died, and even my limbs were crippled by them. I was the only one left alive in the entire team."

After saying that, the man coughed up a mouthful of blood. The little girl cried her eyes out, her little hands gripping her father tightly, as if she would lose him at any moment.

Bofeng comforted him, "Don't say anything more. Leave these seven to me, and I'll take you to get treatment right away."

The man shook his head, his voice weak, and said, "I...can I ask you for a favor?"

"You said."

Then, the man reached out his bloodstained hand, took the little girl's small hand, and placed it in front of Bofeng.

She said softly, "This little girl is called Nan Nan, and she just turned six this year. I found her on the street, and she's been my only family ever since. I think..."

"Cough cough cough..." The man began to cough violently, his breathing gradually weakening.

Bofeng understood what the man wanted to do: entrust his child to someone else.

"You'll get better, don't say anymore," Bofeng comforted her.

The man slowly shook his head, his voice gradually becoming weaker and weaker.

"I'm dying. The fact that I've managed to survive until now is the greatest comfort God has given me."

Seeing that Bofeng had not made any move, the six members of the Mad God team began to get impatient.

"Damn it! Stop babbling and I'll tear you to shreds!" One of the Mad God team members rushed forward and launched the first attack.

"Watch out!" the weak father shouted to Namikaze.

Bo Feng remained calm. Behind him, the trident suddenly moved, transforming into a blue arc of light that struck the man charging towards him in the abdomen.

"boom--"

The man from the Mad God team was beaten until he coughed up blood, and two walls were pierced through, burying him in a pile of bricks.

"Shut up!" Bo Feng glared at the remaining members of the Mad God team, then looked at the father and daughter with a gentle expression.

"Go on."

"I want to entrust Nan Nan to you, and I hope that you...you...can take good care of her..."

"she!"

After saying that, the man stopped breathing and collapsed to the ground, still holding the little girl's hand.

"Daddy! Don't leave me! No! No! Daddy! Daddy!!!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

The little girl looked up at the sky in anguish, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls.

No matter what the little girl does, her father has left her forever.

Namikaze's eyes were misty. This world is cruel; tragedies like this happen almost every day.

At that moment, Bofeng's hands were clenched tightly. The trident, listening to its master's anger, also became intense, and bursts of cold light flashed from between the halberds.

A faint killing intent seeped into Bo Feng's eyes. He could say nothing more to the fierce god team in front of him. Only by killing them could he completely quell the anger in Bo Feng's heart.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Nan Nan. From now on, she will be my sister, and no one will be able to hurt her anymore."

Namikaze reached out her right hand and gently brushed across the dead man's eyes. The man had fallen into eternal sleep; he had passed away peacefully.

"Pah! A piece of trash died so easily."

"Let's all attack together and tear him to pieces."

"If we kidnap that little girl, we can definitely sell her for a good price."

Namikaze slowly rose, turned around expressionlessly, and his right leg began to glow with a dark red light, a sickle-like arc condensing within it.

"You... all deserve to die!"

In an instant, the seven members of the Fierce God Team felt a tightness in their chests, and a suffocating feeling filled their entire bodies.

Breathing heavily with tension, the seven looked at the wind at that moment.

He is no longer the gentle and refined young man he once was; his eyes are as sharp as lightning, and the dark red demonic scythe wrapped around his right leg is poised to strike.

"Demon Orca Soul Bone Skill: Demonic Whale Slash!"

The dark red demonic scythe suddenly flew out, and the seven members of the Fierce God Team who were charging in front of them all stopped in their tracks. Each of them stared blankly, and the spirit rings under their feet gradually dimmed.

Bo Feng snorted coldly, picked Nan Nan up from her father's body, and then carried her father on his shoulder.

"Come on, your brother will protect you in the future, and no one will dare to bully you anymore. If anyone dares to bully you, just mention Sister Xiaobai's name, and she will protect you together with your brother."

Namikaze carried the body and left with the little girl. Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance.

After Bofeng led his men away, the seven members of the Evil God Squad were decapitated, and the scene was extremely bloody. The evildoers finally received their due retribution at this moment.

P.S.: The contract has been signed and sent.

Chapter Seventeen Royal Hunting Grounds

"Click—"

Namikaze was pale, his eyes were vacant, and there was a little blood on his body. He pushed open the door with the little girl in his arms.

"Brother Feng, where did you go last night?"

Bo Feng didn't return home all night, and Xiao Bai, who had been keeping watch here all night, didn't sleep either. In this unfamiliar city, she didn't believe anyone could pose a threat to Bo Feng.

Seeing that Bo Feng was covered in blood and his eyes were empty, he staggered to a chair and sat down, then picked up a cup of water and drank it all at once.

"Brother Feng, what happened last night? Why are there bloodstains on you? Who hurt you?" Xiao Bai asked anxiously.

"sister……"

Namikaze stammered, "I killed someone."

……

……

The air fell silent instantly. Xiaobai looked at Bofeng, who was usually so obedient and well-behaved, and she couldn't even believe what Bofeng was saying.

"Brother Feng, what...did you say?"

“I killed someone,” Namikaze repeated.

"You brat! Before we came out, the High Priest warned you not to cause trouble, and you've already killed someone on your fifth day on the mainland!" Xiao Bai was furious.

He then looked at Bo Feng, whose eyes were glazed over. This was different from hunting soul beasts in the past; this was a living, breathing person.

At that moment, Bo Feng felt incredibly conflicted. He had been furious the night before, and the Evil Whale Demon-Slaying Slash had been used at its maximum power.

Xiao Bai sighed, looked at the silent Bo Feng, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Alright, Sister Bai didn't mean to blame you. What's done is done. Who exactly was killed?"

"Also, where did this little girl come from?" the child asked, glancing at Nan Nan sitting to the side.

Namikaze recalled, "Last night..."

After carefully recounting what had happened the night before, Xiaobai angrily slammed her fist on the table, feeling deep sympathy for the little girl's ordeal.

“A bunch of damned beasts, they deserved to be killed. Brother Feng, you did a good job.”

Looking at Namikaze, who was dejected and still lost.

Xiao Bai comforted him, "Alright, this is something everyone has to go through in life. As a Soul Master, it's bound to happen sooner or later. But I didn't expect your first killing to come so quickly. After that, nothing else will happen."

Immediately, Xiaobai looked at Nannan sitting to the side. The little girl was still in the shadow of losing her father and was sitting blankly on the bed, recalling the scene of the father and daughter's life together.

"Your name is Nan Nan, right?" Xiao Bai sat down next to the little girl.

Looking at the kind and friendly Xiaobai, Nan Nan paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Are you Sister Xiaobai? I heard this older brother mention you before I came."

Xiao Bai said, "I am Xiao Bai."

Recalling what Bofeng had just said, Xiaobai felt sympathy for what had happened to this little girl. She shouldn't have to endure so much at such a young age.

Furthermore, since Bofeng had promised someone's dying wish, she had to keep it. Coincidentally, only Bofeng and Xiaobai were going to Tiandou City this time, but now there's a little sister along, making the journey quite lively.
