Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao were newcomers, so they didn't understand the reason behind it. However, most of the people present were locals. At the very least, they had been here for a period of time and knew the inside story.
Speaking of the Poison Eye Mercenary Group, the father and son of the Cheng family, they were famous in the Weiarc Territorial Waters. Aside from their arrogance, another important reason was that the father and son relied on [Dual Cultivation] to increase their cultivation. This was also why Cheng Ketian often came out to snatch young women. It was because the father and son relied on this to cultivate.
Of course, if it was just [Dual Cultivation], it wouldn't have been so ridiculed. The key was that the father and son of the Cheng family used [Dual Cultivation] to share young women. Therefore, the women around Cheng Ketian were jokingly called "Little Mother" behind his back!
Of course, although this matter was known by everyone in the Weiarc Territorial Waters, everyone only talked about it behind their backs. Very few people dared to call them that. After all, it was not good to expose someone's shortcomings. The father and son of the Cheng family and the Poison Eye Mercenary Group were not to be trifled with. If they provoked them face to face, someone would die.
However, no matter how powerful the Poison Eye Mercenary Group was and how they could intimidate the majority of people, there would always be a few who couldn't be intimidated even if others didn't dare to do so. The black-clothed man in front of them was one of them.
Lin Yi quietly sized up the man in black who suddenly appeared. This man looked a little thin and weak. He even had a sickly and scholarly aura. However, this was only his appearance. The man's temples were bulging and his eyes flashed from time to time. It was obvious that he had extraordinary strength.
Secretly using his golden finger, Lin Yi suddenly discovered that this man was actually an expert at the peak of the late Golden Core Realm. He was only one step away from the Original Soul Realm!
However, this wasn't what shocked Lin Yi the most. What really shocked him was the servant beside the man in black. This person's strength was truly unfathomable. Even his golden finger couldn't see through him. It was obvious that he was at least an Original Soul Realm expert like Old Kong!
This time, Lin Yi was truly shocked. He had only arrived at the Weiarc Territorial Waters for a short period of time, but he had already seen two Nascent Soul Stage experts. Moreover, both of them were servants. This was simply too shocking!
He had thought that although the Verdant Arc Territory was chaotic, it was still a small place. There shouldn't be too many masters. Unexpectedly, there are so many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Even the masters of Yuanying Realm have to condescend to be servants. This is a treatment that even Shangguan Laner, a princess-level existence of the North Island, doesn't have.
It seemed like the waters of the Verdant Arc Territorial Waters were much deeper than he had imagined!
However, after realizing that this servant's strength was not inferior to Old Kong's, Lin Yi immediately came to a realization. No wonder this black-clothed man dared to mock Cheng Ketian to his face. He did have the confidence and capital to do so.
"Qi Wenhan, this has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, lest you bring trouble upon yourself!" Cheng Jutian was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. If it wasn't for the fact that Old Kong was injured and might not be able to defeat the servant, he would have asked Old Kong to fight.
"Hehe. Why does it have nothing to do with me? " The black-clothed man called Qi Wenhan continued to mock him calmly, "You have taken a fancy to this young hero's female companion and want to bring her back to be your stepmother, right? You are so filial. Do you know the ancestors of your Cheng family? Their tombs are probably emitting smoke, right? No, not only smoke, but sparks, right? "
"Hmph, it's none of your business. They are just outsiders who have just arrived. Do you want to meddle in their affairs?" Cheng Ketian's expression became more and more unsightly. The veins on his face bulged crazily, but he didn't dare to make a move. He could only continue to grit his teeth and endure.
"I'm sorry, you really hit the nail on the head." Qi Wenhan smiled and couldn't be bothered to deal with him anymore. He turned to look at Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao and said, "Young hero, I am the young master of the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency, Qi Wenhan. Just now, I saw that the two of you have extraordinary skills, so I would like to invite the two of you to join our Heaven's Equal Escort Agency as an escort. What do you think?"
"You dare to fight with me?!" When Cheng Ketian heard this, he couldn't maintain his composure. He immediately flew into a rage and shouted.
He was indeed afraid of Qi Wenhan. After all, the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency was not to be trifled with, especially now that Old Kong was injured. Therefore, even though he was being ridiculed in front of him, he didn't dare to make a move. He was afraid that he would suffer a loss today and not be able to get back at him in the future. Therefore, he could only endure for the time being.
However, this didn't mean that he would let Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao go. They were prey that he had his eyes on. They were already meat in his mouth. How could he let them run away for no reason?
In his opinion, even if Qi Wenhan helped them for a while, he wouldn't be able to help them forever. Even if he couldn't help them today, they wouldn't be able to escape tomorrow or the day after.
However, Qi Wenhan actually wanted to recruit them as escorts for the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency. This was absolutely intolerable!
This was because this meant that Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao would become members of the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency. At that time, it would be too difficult to make a move on them.
"Qi Wenhan, listen to me. I saw these two first. If you do this, you will be breaking the rules of the Verdant Arc Territorial Waters. If things get out of hand, even your Heaven's Equal Escort Agency won't be able to get away with it!" Cheng Ketian gritted his teeth and threatened.
However, Qi Wenhan turned a deaf ear to his threats. He only looked at Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao with a smile, waiting for Lin Yi's reply. As for Cheng Ketian's clamor, it was as if it was nothing but air. It wasn't even worth a fart.
Seeing this, Lin Yi understood. They were both second generation young masters of the Verdant Arc Territorial Waters. However, compared to Cheng Ketian, this Qi Wenhan was much stronger.
This Qi Wenhan suddenly stood out to recruit him. He definitely wasn't just being a good samaritan. This person must have seen that he and Huang Xiaotao had the strength to injure an Original Infant Stage master. Therefore, he decided to intervene midway and extend an olive branch to him!
Otherwise, even if he didn't like Cheng Ketian, he wouldn't have said what he just said. At most, he would take advantage of Cheng Ketian's weakness and trample on Cheng Ketian while Elder Kong was injured.
Acting bravely for a just cause was rare in the cultivation world, especially in the chaotic Verdant Arc Territorial Waters. It was impossible for Qi Wenhan to stand up for the two of them for no reason.
