"Miss Cai'er, I didn't think that we would meet again so soon." Lin Xiu greeted Cai'er.
"Hehe, what a coincidence. I didn't think that you guys are mercenaries?" Cai'er smiled.
"Sister, there's no need to look. They are just mercenaries, why would they go to the Elite Martial Academy? Would the geniuses of the Elite Martial Academy come out to be mercenaries? "Zhang Chao said coldly.
Hearing Zhang Chao's words, the remaining three mercenaries were a little unhappy. Compared to them, mercenaries did not lack arms or legs. Everyone was the same, who was more noble?
Cai'er pulled Zhang Chao's hand. At this moment, Zhang Chao seemed to understand something. He snorted coldly at Lin Xiu and Jiao Huangyu and did not say anything else.
Both parties fell into an awkward silence.
Not long after, the other mercenaries arrived one after another. They could vaguely tell that Lin Xiu and Jiao Huangyu did not get along with their employer. He frowned inwardly, but he did not say anything. They had only met by chance. After this mission, they would go their separate ways.
After easing the atmosphere, Cai'er smiled. "Since everyone is here, let's set off early."
Lin Xiu and Jiao Huangyu did not say anything else. Cai'er waved her hand and the entire team set off. Destination, Elite Martial Academy.
The Elite Martial Academy was located in the Great Kun City of the Yunxian Dynasty. There were shadows of the Elite Martial Academy in the thousands of dynasties under the Mu Family. To put it bluntly, the Elite Martial Academy was an organization that the Mu Family used to recruit new blood.
In the Mu Family, there was a specialized elder in charge of the Elite Martial Academy. Generally speaking, the dean of the Elite Martial Academy was a deacon of the Mu Family. His strength was around the Heavenly Yuan Realm. There was an Elite Martial Academy in every hundred dynasties. The geniuses that passed the selection would cultivate in the Elite Martial Academy to a certain level before being sent to the Mu Family.
And the dean of the Elite Martial Academy was at the peak of the Heavenly Yuan Realm. Even in the Mu Family, he was a protector. What was even more terrifying was the Martial Arts Academy of the Thousand Dynasties. It was the place where the Mu Clan trained their geniuses. The geniuses there were all one in ten thousand, and the requirements to graduate from there were appalling. To graduate from there, one had to be at least at the Earth Origin Stage!
Similarly, because the students of the headquarters were too abnormal, once they left the headquarters and entered the Mu Family, they would immediately be appointed as deacons. As long as they were truly loyal to the Mu Family, it was not impossible for them to be promoted to the core of the Mu Family. Hence, the students of the Elite Martial Arts Academy wanted to be promoted to the inner courtyard, the inner courtyard wanted to be promoted to the headquarters, and the students of the headquarters wanted to be recognized by the Mu Family's higher-ups!
This was why a large sect like the Mu Family was able to stand tall in the Immortal Martial Continent! It wasn't just the Mu Family; the entire continent was like this. …
Cai'er and the others headed in the direction of Great Kun City. Although they encountered a few dangers along the way, with the five mercenaries' fists, it could be considered daunting but not dangerous.
The night of autumn always came unexpectedly. That's right, Lin Xiu and the others were originally speeding along the official road, but the weather suddenly became hot and the sky darkened. The rumbling of thunder resounded through the sky, and in less than 15 minutes, it started to rain heavily.
Helpless, Cai'er could only lead the mercenaries along the official road to find a place to stay. Unexpectedly, they really found a wine shop. After discussing the price with the owner, they checked in.
As the wine shop was not a specialized inn, the mercenaries shared a room of two. Considering Cai'er, Zhang Chao asked for a total of four rooms, and Cai'er had her own room.
"Boss, I didn\'t expect that we would actually bump into that pair of siblings. What\'s even more surprising is that we accepted their mission." Jiao Huangyu couldn\'t wait and said to Lin Xiu as soon as they entered the room.
As the mercenaries shared a room of two, Lin Xiu and Jiao Huangyu naturally shared the same room.
"Why do you care so much? Anyway, when we reach Great Kun City, everyone will go their own way. As long as they don't provoke us, we will just go on like this. "Lin Xiu was somewhat indifferent to Jiao Huangyu's attitude.
After thinking about it carefully, Jiao Huangyu felt that it was also true, so he did not talk to Lin Xiu anymore and sat on the bed to cultivate. After so many days, Jiao Huangyu also realized that Lin Xiu did not buy his hooligan tricks at all and might even teach him a lesson. He gradually became smarter and did not talk nonsense in front of Lin Xiu, but cultivated obediently.
The next day, the weather was sunny. Because of the rainy night, Lin Xiu breathed in the fresh and moist air. He stretched and pulled Jiao Huangyu up from the bed.
When they went downstairs to the wine shop, Lin Xiu found that the mercenaries were there bragging about their glorious experiences. Lin Xiu was not interested in them, so he sat alone in the corner, poured a bowl of wine, and slowly tasted it. Under the influence of Jiao Huangyu, this unscrupulous friend and little brother, Lin Xiu gradually fell in love with drinking.
On the other hand, Lin Xiu was not interested in those things, but Jiao Huangyu had a special liking for them. When they came to the table of the mercenaries, Jiao Huangyu began to narrate his tragic story, causing the burly men to tear up.
Just as Lin Xiu was feeling that Jiao Huangyu's behavior was ridiculous, Cai'er and Zhang Chao slowly walked down the stairs.
Seeing that the mercenaries and Jiao Huangyu seemed to get along well, Zhang Chao could not help but feel anxious. They were the employers, but these mercenaries were getting along well with Jiao Huangyu.
Looking up at Cai'er, the mercenaries also stopped their discussion.
"Why are you guys making a ruckus so early in the morning? How dare you disturb this young master's sweet dreams! "Zhang Chao scolded the group of mercenaries.
Cai'er wanted to stop him, but she was still a step too late and could only stand there with her brows slightly knitted.
Hearing Zhang Chao's scolding, the mercenaries could not sit still. They were only hired, but that did not mean that they would allow their employer to scold them. Even a clay figurine would have some anger, let alone these blood-stained men.
The mercenaries only glared at Zhang Chao angrily, but Zhang Chao was so frightened by the eight eyes of the four mercenaries that he staggered and almost fell.
Lin Xiu, who was sitting in the corner, was also amused. In his eyes, people like Zhang Chao were really stupid, they were the weakest and yet they wanted to provoke a group of strong people. He believed that if Zhang Chao was not the employer of these mercenaries, Zhang Chao would have become a cold corpse lying on the ground.
"Everyone, please don't take it to heart. My brother is such a person. His words might not be very pleasant to hear, but I will apologize to everyone on his behalf." Seeing that the mood of the mercenaries wasn't right, Cai'er hurriedly came out to mediate.
On account of Cai'er, the mercenaries let it go, but they were all slandering in their hearts. In their opinion, Cai'er and Zhang Chao going to the Elite Martial Academy, not to mention their strength, just their ability to offend people might not necessarily let them pass the test. But this kind of matter, after all, was their own matter. Seeing Cai'er apologize, they did not say much.
After breakfast, Lin Xiu and the others hurried on their way again. Because of the rain last night, the mercenaries did not dare to speed up while walking on the muddy road.
...
Three days later, Cai'er and the others encountered the biggest trouble on their way to Dakun City, Qian Qing Mountain.
Because they were in a hurry and wanted to avoid trouble, they took the mountain road all the way. And the Qian Qing Mountain in front of them was their biggest problem.
Unlike Yandang Mountain, Qian Qing Mountain did not have that many bandits and the strength of the beasts in Qian Qing Mountain was not strong.
However, most of the beasts in Qian Qing Mountain lived in groups. If they were lucky, it would be easy to pass through Qian Qing Mountain, but they were not afraid of anything.
If they encountered a large number of beasts, then the seven of them would have to die here.
If they wanted to pass through Qian Qing Mountain without relying on luck, they had to at least have the strength of an Earth Yuan Realm!
This made the mercenaries a little uncertain. There was no Earth Yuan Realm in their group, and the strongest was only at the peak of the Human Yuan Realm.
Lin Xiu and Jiao Huangyu concealed their strength when they joined the team and told them that they were in the middle stage of the Human Yuan Realm. Including Cai'er and her sister, they had a total of four Human Yuan Realm cultivators, and the strongest among them was only at the peak of the Human Yuan Realm. With their strength, it was not easy to pass through Qian Qing Mountain.
Cai'er frowned and asked the mercenaries for a solution.
"In everyone's opinion, is it possible for us to pass through this Qian Qing Mountain?"
"This, unless we are lucky enough, otherwise …" Lin Dong, the mercenary with the highest strength on the surface, replied.
As if she had made up her mind, Cai'er said to Lin Xiu and the other mercenaries, "Qian Qing Mountain is so big, our luck should not be that bad. Why don't we go through this Qian Qing Mountain?"
No one said anything. Cai'er and her sister were the employers, and in terms of choosing the path, of course, they had to listen to them.
Seeing that no one objected, Cai'er cupped her fists to the mercenaries and took the lead to Qian Qing Mountain without looking back. Seeing this, the mercenaries could only follow helplessly.
