Chapter 813 Slum City



After this simple exchange, Lin Fan was able to open up the hearts of this old man and the little girl and they exchanged introductions.

Lin Fan learned that the old man’s name was Duanmu Hao Yu and the little girl’s name was simply Min’er, she didn’t have a surname at all.

He also learned that the two of them were biological relatives at all, but rather Duanmu Hao Yu had picked up Min’er from this wasteland many years ago and had been taking care of her the entire time. Though with how he treated her and how the two acted with each other, those that didn’t know would think that they were a blood related pair of grandfather and granddaughter.

All of this was told to him by Min’er since he found that Duanmu Hao Yu couldn’t speak at all.

The reason why he wasn’t speaking earlier wasn’t because he was wary of Lin Fan, but rather because he couldn’t speak at all.

When Lin Fan looked more closely, he found that there was a rather prominent scar on the old man’s throat which looked quite bad. Judging by the way the scar looked, he should have lost his voice a long time ago…

But this was a part of this old man’s past and Lin Fan had no right to dig into it, so he didn’t ask any further questions.

Instead, he pulled out a tablet that he had stored and gave it to the old man.

This was a tablet that he had picked up on the Galactic Humanity Alliance and it was something that ran on spirit stones, so he was able to use it even in a place like this.

He had picked it up to play around with, but he never thought that he would be using it like this.

He let Duanmu Hua Yu use it because it had a function that would read out written text. Of course, even if it didn’t read the text, he could still write to communicate with people.

When Min’er saw this, her eyes immediately lit up as she said, “Grandpa, I can finally talk to you!”

However, Duanmu Hua Yu wasn’t happy about getting something like this. He knew that he would be targeted if he had something like this, so he tried to give it back to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan gave a sigh, but he said, “Give it back to me after you give me the information I want, how about that?”

After thinking about it, Duanmu Hua Yu agreed to this.

It turned out that Lin Fan had been sent to a Stellar Kingdom, the Mu Stellar Kingdom to be exact, but the location that he had been sent to was a bit tricky. That was because while this was the main planet of the Mu Stellar Kingdom, the part that he had been sent to was a place where the Mu Stellar Kingdom’s people threw their trash.

This was a place where people who had nowhere else to go went. To put it simply, he had been sent to the slums and the wasteland where they threw their garbage.

That was why all those things had suddenly fallen from the sky.

The worst part was that once you came in here, it was very difficult to get out.

The Mu Stellar Kingdom naturally cared about their appearance, so they did all that they could to make sure that the people of the slums stayed in the slums. So even if you had money, it would take a ridiculous amount of money to buy your way out of the slums.

But how could people in the slums even have money?

They used their soldiers to suppress the people here and had built a large wall around the slums to make sure that they didn’t escape.

So this had been a terrible place that Lin Fan had been sent to.

After learning this, Lin Fan fell into deep thought.

He knew that Zi Ling had sent him away to keep him safe and that this was the best place for him to hide out in, but he couldn’t help feeling worried. After all, he had left his friends and family behind, as well as the store.

These were things that were important and he didn’t know if they were safe now…

Well, he at least knew that the store was safe since he could see his points still increasing, which meant that Mo Ze Chen and Lulu should be watching the store for him.

Not to mention that Angela and Momonga were both still back at the store if anything went wrong.

But he still couldn’t help feeling worried since he wasn’t sure how Zi Ling would stop the Bing and Huo Families from taking revenge on the people he cared about.

So after thinking this through, he still decided that the most important thing was for him to get out of here and make his way back to the Galactic Humanity Alliance. As long as he was careful, he should be able to pass by and make sure that his important people were safe before he continued on.

But there was one thing that stopped him…

It was another mission from the system.

After he learned that he had landed in the Mu Stellar Kingdom, there was a mission that popped up telling him to create a store in this Mu Stellar Kingdom.

He was conflicted since he wanted to head back to the Galactic Humanity Alliance to check on the people he cared about, but this was a mission from the system. The last mission had given him that full power strike from a Peak Planet Realm Expert which was what had saved him in the end, he couldn’t help anticipating what the system would give him this time…

Still, no matter what his thoughts were, he knew that there was nothing he could do in the middle of nowhere like this.

So the first thing he had to do was find some human civilization.

Luckily, there was a city in this slum and it was where Duanmu Hua Yu and Xin’er were from. So after talking for a bit, Lin Fan decided to head back to the city with the two of them.

At the very least, they knew enough to be his guide.

He also took out several more fruits for them to repay them for doing this.

It didn’t take them long to get back to the city, but to call it a city was a bit of an exaggeration. It was just a bunch of tents and poorly constructed buildings that were put together.

With how sloppy it looked, it was even hard to believe that people could live in a place like this.

But to his surprise, he saw quite a few people walking in the streets of this city. Then on the side, there were also plenty of people sitting there with items on the ground that they seemed to be selling.

This place didn’t even lose out in liveliness to the business street in Harmony City.

In the end, a Stellar Kingdom was a Stellar Kingdom. Even a city in the slums like this was this lively, it was hard to imagine how lively the capital was.

Of course, with so many people, naturally there were also people hiding in the crowd with bad intentions. There were people who watched the people walking by, looking for targets to strike.

Since Lin Fan was new to this city, they immediately locked onto him as fresh blood.

Lin Fan had suppressed his cultivation so as to not attract any attention, but this had bitten him in the butt as this caused these thieves to turn their attention to him.

Since they couldn’t sense any cultivation from him, they thought that he was an easy mark. His clean and expensive looking clothes made these thieves even more greedy towards what he had.

They had confidence in their skills and they were certain that they wouldn’t be discovered, so they made their way behind and in front of Lin Fan before approaching him.

As Lin Fan was looking around in the street, these thieves chose to strike.

They casually approached him as if they were just going to walk past him, but when they were right beside him, their sneaky hands suddenly went forward towards his pockets.

But before they could take anything, Lin Fan’s hands had already grabbed their hands.

With a single strong twist, the thieves that had tried to steal from Lin Fan were sent to the ground in front of him.

Everyone turned to see what the cause of this commotion was, but seeing the people being thrown onto the ground, they just revealed sneers before they continued on with their own business. It was as if this was a very common scene in a place like this and they were already bored of seeing it.

Lin Fan knitted his brows as he looked at the people on the ground.

Normally he would have directly killed these people, but since he didn’t know what the rules of this place were, he said, “Get lost.”

The people on the ground looked like they had been pardoned, so they quickly got off the ground and ran away without saying a single thing.

After they were gone, Duanmu Hua Yu asked, “Why didn’t you kill them?”

Lin Fan raised a brow before saying, “I don’t want to cause any trouble since I’m not familiar with this place.”

Duanmu Hua Yu just said with a cold look, “Killing won’t cause any trouble, it’ll just save the guards the trouble. Not to mention, those people aren’t good people to begin with.”

Lin Fan gave a nod, but he didn’t say anything else.

He had already suspected this and even felt that he had made a mistake since he was certain that they would come for revenge in the future. But it was already too late for him to regret this, so he could only live with it for now.

Of course, he gave himself a mental reminder to keep his guard up from now on.

At the same time, he also gave the people who were still secretly watching around him a cold look as if he was taunting them to come at him. They just looked at him for a bit before turning away to mind their own matters.

Seeing that there was this incident, Duanmu Hua Yu no longer walked slowly and started moving faster as he gestured to Lin Fan to come with him.

They quickly moved through the streets until they came to a more quiet area, but that was only relative to the main street. This place was still filled with people and based on what they were doing, it seemed like this was a residential area.

Duanmu Hua Yu brought Lin Fan over to one of the buildings and then brought him into the basement where he and Min’er lived.𝑶𝒱𝓵xt.𝗇𝓔t
