"Yeah!" Xiatian nodded. "Why are you so agitated?"
"Because we used to be members of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group," Lan Tianxing said.
Eh!
Everyone was stunned when they heard Lan Tianxing's words.
No one expected Lan Tianxing to be a member of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group.
"But we're not anymore. Ever since the leader of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group, Old K, died in the process of advancing to SS-rank, the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group is no longer the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group of the past. In the past, the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group could be considered a true S-rank mercenary group. They were very powerful. At that time, the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group was filled with experts. Every one of them was a top-notch expert. Their combat strength was very terrifying. At that time, the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group were all Jiuding and above.
Lan Tianxing was also proud of being a member of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group back then.
"What about now?" Xiatian Asked.
"The current Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group has been split up. There are less than three hundred people left. However, it's said that they've expanded. Moreover, the requirements have been lowered. They've also started recruiting people with eight Jiuding and above." Lan Tianxing explained, "Oh right, how did you meet them?"
"Oh, we beat up their people just now. Then, they came over to take revenge. We scared them away," Xiatian said casually.
He still remembered how the Heaven Fiend looked when he ran away.
How pathetic he looked.
"It's over. We're in trouble now." Lan Tianxing shook his head helplessly.
"What's wrong?" Xiatian Asked, puzzled.
"The current leader of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group is the previous leader of the Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group. His name is Yaksha. He's a narrow-minded person." Lan Tianxing clearly disliked Yaksha very much. When he spoke, his face was filled with disgust.
"What's wrong with Jiuding and Jiuding? This matter has something to do with his wife. It has nothing to do with us, "Xiatian said.
Jiuding!!
Jiuding!!!
Everyone's face darkened.
Xiatian actually separated these two words.
"Yaksha is a person who cares a lot about face and is very narrow-minded. He is a very sinister person. If you offend him, then you have to be careful of his tricks. Even SS-ranked mercenaries don't want to provoke him. After all, those SS-ranked mercenaries have their own families." Lan Tianxing said.
"Really? What about the others? Aren't there thousands of Jiuding experts? "Xiatian asked as he walked.
"The former Heaven and Earth Mercenary Group is now divided into three groups. Yaksha's group has the most people because he has the reputation of being an S-rank mercenary group. The remaining two groups are the former Second Leader and Fourth Leader. Second Leader's reputation is the best. He took 200 people with him, but I don't like him because he only has money in his eyes. For money, he can betray everything, including his own brothers. However, very few people know this, and I only found out by chance. Fourth Leader took 100 people with him. He should be doing the best because he is a rich second generation. His father is a noble, and he is also a noble. Those who follow him now have noble titles because of him. Although they aren't very noble, they are at least nobles," Lan Tianxing explained patiently.
"Oh, by the way, I heard you say that your former leader, Old K, died when he was trying to become an SS-rank mercenary. What happened?" Xiatian had heard about this before, but he didn't know much about it.
At the time, he wasn't very strong, so it was very far away from him.
"Oh, Mr. Xia, it's normal that you don't know. Generally speaking, only the elites of an S-rank mercenary group or those who have followed elites would know. In order to become an SS-rank mercenary, not only do you have to complete a large number of S-rank missions, but you also have to challenge the Five Gates of Life and Death. Only those who pass at least two gates can become an SS-rank mercenary. If you pass all five gates, then you will become a one-of-a-kind SSS-rank mercenary. However, ever since the mercenary union was established, only one person has become a legend. There hasn't been a second person. However, I heard that some of you homo evolutis have passed the fourth gate. Of course, whether it's true or not, no one knows." Lan Tianxing used to follow Old K, so he naturally knew about the Five Gates of Life and Death.
"Then what are the Five Gates of Life and Death?" Xiatian's eyes suddenly lit up. He felt like he was getting closer and closer to that goal.
"That I don't know. I heard that this kind of thing can only be done if you go to the mercenary union headquarters when you want to break through. They will take you there, and you have to be qualified to challenge it," Lan Tianxing said.
"Oh? What is qualified? "Xiatian Asked.
"Although I don't know the exact qualifications, you have to have completed a lot of S-rank missions, and you also have to agree to it. I heard that many people have the strength of an SS-rank mercenary, but they don't challenge the Five Gates of Life and Death. This is probably related to danger. Many people in this world have died because of the Five Gates of Life and Death," Lan Tianxing explained patiently.
When he heard this, Xiatian thought of the Gibbon Fairy.
He was definitely as strong as an SS-rank mercenary, but he wasn't one.
Obviously, he didn't challenge the Five Gates of Life and Death.
"The Five Gates of Life and Death is the nightmare of all masters, but it is also the dream of all masters," Lan Tianxing said.
"Yes, who doesn't want to break through and reach the highest level? Becoming an SS-rank mercenary is a symbol of identity and status. Becoming an SSS-rank mercenary is the highest god in the Middle Realm, and may even rule the entire Middle Realm." Xiatian also understood the importance of identity.
This was something he had experienced a long time ago.
From the beginning of the Earth Ranking to the Hundred Million Kill.
In this chaotic era, the first thing people saw was not your strength, but your identity.
Xiatian was obviously such an identity.
"It seems that it will be lively this time. S-rank mercenary groups, SS-rank mercenaries, mysterious masters, super masters, Mr. Xia, I haven't felt this excited in a long time," Lan Tianxing said with a face full of excitement.
"Then do you want to be more excited?" Xiatian Asked.
"Yes," Lan Tianxing said.
"Then next time we see an SS-rank mercenary, we will fight, then run. I guarantee that it will be more exciting," Xiatian said.
Uh!!
Everyone's face darkened.
"Huh?" At this moment, Xiatian suddenly frowned and quickly ran forward. It didn't take long for him to see the figures of several people. At this time, the faces of these people were very ugly. Lin Linling was still unconscious.
"What's wrong? Where is Brother Chao? "Xiatian Asked.
"Brother Chao, he …"
