Ji Hao stayed in his cave and cultivated himself for the whole night, absorbing the power of the stars and improving his power by a little bit.
A clear stream of light dazzled out and the heavy stone door of the cave opened. Twenty-four well-dressed young men, who were wearing long black robes and half-body armors, with black sword sheaths tied around their waists, kneeled on one knee and kowtowed to Ji Hao together and said, "Lord Earl Yao!"
These twenty-four young men were all around twelve to thirteen years old, but they were a head taller than ordinary young men of the same age. They were all tall and strong, like leopards in the woods, and their entire bodies were filled with a sense of strength and strength.
The natural power in Midland was much denser than in the four wastelands, and people living in Midland were much stronger than people living in the four wastelands. These youths were carefully selected from the tens of millions of clansmen. Whether it was aptitude or talent, they were all very good.
Added with the fact that they had been living under Ji Hao's command for the past two years, they had all been eating and wearing top-grade things, and they never lacked magic medicines that could help them with their cultivation. Therefore, all twenty-four young men had almost reached the level of Senior Magi.
At such a young age, they were about to reach the level of Senior Magi. In Southern Wasteland, they could definitely be regarded as top-grade geniuses from super-large clans. Even in the Magi Palace in Pu Ban City, they could also be counted as excellent geniuses.
Sensing the fierce and decisive sense of power released from these young men and their determined and sharp eyes, Ji Hao nodded in satisfaction. They were all a group of good kids, but … Ji Hao looked at them a bit confusedly and asked, "What are you doing?"
The leading young man cupped his hands and bowed to Ji Hao, then said straightforwardly, "Shifu Shaosi has ordered us that from today on, we are Earl Yao's close guards, Earl Yao's personal guards, and will follow Earl Yao's orders. Shifu Shaosi has ordered us to stay close to Earl Yao no matter where he goes. "
Ji Hao opened his mouth and didn't come back to his senses for quite a while.
Wasn't it just that he was hugged by that fragrant girl yesterday? Why did Shaosi have such a big reaction? Eh, eh, so early in the morning, she chose twenty-four smart young men to follow around Ji Hao?
However, it seemed that Ji Hao indeed needed a group of close guards.
He didn't expect them to be too powerful, but at least, they could do many things for him.
Rubbing his chin, Ji Hao slowly nodded and said, "Alright, this is good. Since you're my personal guards, you'll take my surname from now on. I'll bestow upon you the surname 'Ji'. Your descendants can also use my surname. "
The group of youths was so excited that their faces turned red. They kowtowed heavily on the ground and did not get up for a long time.
In this era, they were all slaves. Therefore, being bestowed a surname by Ji Hao, the family leader of Earl Yao, was a great honor. This meant that from now on, they had completely gotten rid of the slave status, and even their parents would gain inexhaustible benefits.
The surname of Ji Hao had boosted the loyalty of these young men to the maximum, and they had all become Ji Hao's loyal followers.
"And your names. What were your original names? I'm too lazy to remember them. Since you have new surnames, I will give you new names. " Ji Hao pointed at the twenty-four teenagers, pondered for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands and laughed, "I got it …"
Heaven and Earth were black and yellow, the universe was primitive and desolate, the sun and moon waxed and waned, the constellations lined up, the seasons came and went, the autumn harvested and the winter hid!
Ji Hao was lazy, so he directly named these teenagers with the first twenty-four characters of the Thousand Character Classic.
For example, the oldest one among these twenty-four teenagers was named Ji Tian by Ji Hao, while the second oldest one was named Ji Di by Ji Hao, and the others were named like this.
Receiving the surname of their landowner and being named by Ji Hao himself, these twenty-four teenagers were so excited that their faces even turned purple. They felt like they were floating in the clouds, and couldn't even say a word. They gasped loudly and quickly. Now, if Ji Hao gave an order, they would even dare to wield their swords towards divine gods.
Ji Hao turned around, took a glance at his own cave, then pointed at the cliff beside the entrance of the cave and said, "Later, I'll ask Kua E and the others to help me expand the cave around my cave. I'll make twenty-four stone rooms for you to live in."
Ji Tian and the others responded loudly. Immediately, Ji Zang, the youngest one among them, let out a long whistle and called an iron feather eagle over. Mounted on the eagle's back, Ji Hao rushed towards the construction site of Yao Mountain City.
Ji Hao nodded satisfyingly. In the future, he wouldn't need to run errands for small things like this by himself. Instead, he could order people around, which felt pretty good.
Not long after Ji Zang flew, a strong gust of hot wind suddenly roared over from the southwest. Ji Hao hurriedly turned around and saw a miles in radius fiery cloud flying over from Pu Ban City in the southwest like a shooting star, leaving a tens of miles long trail of fiery light in the air.
From tens of miles away from Yao Mountain, the great heat released by this fiery cloud had already turned the heavy snow above Yao Mountain into rain. Wherever the fiery cloud swept across, large patches of snow melted. With a good eyesight, Ji Hao saw twelve fiery flood dragons on that fiery cloud, baring their teeth and letting out deep and resonant roars from time to time.
Standing on the backs of each fiery flood dragon was a divine god, who was wearing a crimson armor and had their bodies wrapped in a fiery light.
The sense of power released from these divine gods was great and strong. Ji Hao scanned across their bodies with his spirit power and surprisingly found that all of them were peak-Magus-King-level.
Behind these twelve divine gods were three-thousand and six-hundred elite warriors, who were wearing crimson heavy armors and mounted on fiery elephants. These warriors were all as powerful as peak-Senior-Magus-level warriors. The fiery elephants mounted on their mounts were enormous, glowing with a fiery light, seeming especially mighty.
The sense of power released from these divine gods and warriors was quite different from that released by ordinary human beings. They were all descendants of divine gods. Judging from the style of their armors and the strong sense of power released from their bodies, these divine gods were all Zhu Rong's people.
The fiery cloud roared over and abruptly stopped in front of Ji Hao. The twelve divine gods mounted on fiery flood dragons leaped down from the fiery cloud, kneeled down on one knee and saluted to Ji Hao, then said, "Lord Earl Yao! From now on, we are all Princess Man Man's close guards, and we will all be under Earl Yao's command! "
Ji Hao paused. What was going on? Why did Zhu Rong send such a strong army to him for no reason?
Twelve peak-Magus-King-level warriors and three-thousand and six-hundred peak-Senior-Magus-King-level warriors … What was even worse was that these people were all Man Man's close guards? Based on Man Man's personality, Ji Hao could imagine that his Yao Mountain territory would certainly be bustling with people in the future.
"You …" Ji Hao couldn't say a word for quite a while.
Swoosh! Man Man carried the girl who had a special scent and rushed over. Seeing Ji Hao, she conveniently threw the girl to those Fire God warriors, grinningly said to Ji Hao, "Ahyaya, Abba sent you here? Hm, send this girl back. Doesn't she like to sleep with men in the middle of the night? Send her back to Southern Wasteland, to that bastard Seven! "
The girl's look instantly changed. Man Man grinned at her and said, "Ahyaya, Ji Hao is only a little Earl Yao. Why do you want to stay with him? Seven is my Abba's son, the prince of Zhu Rong Family. He's a hundred times better than Ji Hao. You just go hang out with him! "
A few middle-aged men wearing long robes and tall hats grabbed the girl up with weird smiles, trod on fiery clouds and rose into the sky, flying away within the blink of an eye.
Ji Hao spread his hands and helplessly looked at Man Man. What was this?
