When the fat leader heard Zhao Hai, his expression couldn't help but change. He thought that Zhao Hai had just joined the Blood-Edge Gang and wasn't familiar with escort missions. Therefore, he wanted to suppress Zhao Hai. However, he didn't think that Zhao Hai's attitude would be so tough. This made the fat leader's expression turn ugly.
The fat leader looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Is this your idea or the Blood-Edge Gang's?"
Zhao Hai looked at the fat leader and said, "I'm the leader of the Blood-Edge Gang. Naturally, my words represent the Blood-Edge Gang. What do you think? Do you want to give us money to leave, or do you want us to protect you while you're resting? "
The fat leader looked at the Blood-Edge Gang members standing behind Zhao Hai. His eyes couldn't help but flash with a strange expression. To be honest, he didn't think that the Blood-Edge Gang would be so united. These people actually supported Zhao Hai, this was beyond his expectations.
The fat leader thought that Zhao Hai had just joined the Blood-Edge Gang, so he thought that there would be a lot of people in the Blood-Edge Gang who wouldn't accept him. And since Zhao Hai's performance was so strong, the other members of the Blood-Edge Gang wouldn't accept him. Because of this, the fat leader dared to be so aggressive towards Zhao Hai. However, he didn't think that Zhao Hai would have the support of everyone in the Blood-Edge Gang. This made him fall into a very awkward situation.
Actually, the fat leader didn't know that there were a lot of people in the Blood-Edge Gang who didn't accept Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai had just joined the Blood-Edge Gang, but his status was higher than them. How could the Blood-Edge Gang members accept this?
However, the people of the Blood-Edge Gang were proud, and even a little overbearing. Their own problems were solved by their own people. If an outsider dares to bully a member of the Blood-Edge Gang, they wouldn't allow it, let alone the fat leader. How could the people of the Blood-Edge Gang endure this?
If Zhao Hai was a little soft towards the fat leader, then the Blood-Edge Gang wouldn't fully support him. However, Zhao Hai was very aggressive towards the fat leader. Because of this, he received the support of the Blood-Edge Gang.
Of course, the fat leader didn't know about this. He was now in a dilemma. If he agreed with Zhao Hai, then he would lose face. But if he didn't agree with Zhao Hai, then it would be tantamount to having a falling out with Zhao Hai. It would be hard to say if Zhao Hai and the others would do their best to protect him.
Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he led the Cultivators of the Blood-Edge Gang and calmly looked at the fat leader. He didn't understand why the fat leader was suppressing him, but he knew that he couldn't show weakness in front of him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to have a foothold in the Blood-Edge Gang.
Although Zhao Hai didn't join the Blood-Edge Gang for a long time, he was very clear about how the Blood-Edge Gang used to be in Lijiang City. In the past, the Blood-Edge Gang was very domineering in Lijiang City. Although they were now in Demon Heart City, the Blood-Edge Gang's overbearing nature couldn't disappear in a day. Because of this, if he showed weakness in front of the fat leader, then the other members of the Blood-Edge Gang would look down on him. When the time comes, he wouldn't be able to have a foothold in the Blood-Edge Gang.
Because of this, Zhao Hai changed his previous principle of being gentle and became tough. Sure enough, his tyrannical attitude gained the support of the Blood-Edge Gang. Now, he wanted to see what the fat leader would do.
The fat leader's expression changed several times. In the end, he thought about the Nine Revolution Heavenly Fragrance Grass in his Space. His expression couldn't help but relax. Then he turned his head to Zhao Hai and cupped his fist. Then he smiled and said, "So there's such a rule. Please forgive me for not knowing. Since it's like this, then everything will be decided by Leader Zhao. If Leader Zhao wants to rest, then rest there. I have no objections."
When Zhao Hai saw the fat leader's expression, his heart sank. He knew that it was impossible for the fat leader to not know about the rules. However, he still said those words. This was equal to giving himself a way out. This definitely wasn't a good thing.
The more the fat leader endured, the more he couldn't leave them. And as far as Zhao Hai knew, the journey from Devil Heart City to Riverpass City was very peaceful. The fat leader was a Soul Fusion Stage Cultivator. Moreover, he also brought along 20 people with decent fighting strength. If it was an ordinary situation, then even if they didn't hire other people, they would still be able to complete the escort mission. However, the fat leader still hired people. Moreover, it seems like the fat leader was very concerned about whether they would leave or not. In other words, the fat leader knew that this mission might be dangerous, so he endured it.
He knew that there might be danger, but he still issued a mission that didn't seem to be dangerous. This meant that the fat leader was hiding something.
Although he didn't know what it was, it still made Zhao Hai worry. Zhao Hai didn't want to be inexplicably schemed against.
The fat leader endured it. According to the rules of employment, Zhao Hai couldn't not do this mission. Therefore, the fat leader took a deep breath and cupped his fist towards the fat leader, "Then I'll have to thank the leader. Everyone pay attention and protect the convoy. We're setting off." Although the Blood-Edge Gang held their breath, they also knew that Zhao Hai's approach was correct. They really needed to protect the convoy. After all, this was the mission that they accepted.
Before long, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the town where they usually lived. It was a courtyard on the edge of the town. Everyone drove the carriages into the courtyard. After Zhao Hai arranged for the guards, the place became quiet.
The reason why they came here to rest was because it was getting late. After everyone settled down and ate, the sky had already turned completely dark. The fat leader had already led his men to rest, but they still left behind five men to look after the carriages.
Zhao Hai didn't rest. Not only did he not rest, he also arranged for ten people from the Blood-Edge Gang to look after the carriages. Then he called the captains who came with him to his room.
The Blood-Edge Gang had ten people in a squad, and each squad had a captain. This time, there were fifty people who came with Zhao Hai. They were divided into five squads, so naturally, there were fifty captains.
The captains didn't know why they were called to Zhao Hai's room. They sat there and looked at Zhao Hai, not knowing what Zhao Hai wanted to say.
Zhao Hai frowned as he sat there. After some time, he looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, I'm afraid that this time's mission won't be easy to complete. There might be an accident. Everyone must be careful."
When the five captains heard Zhao Hai, they couldn't help but stare. Then they looked at each other, not understanding why Zhao Hai said this.
Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "I found that there's something wrong with the fat man."
When they heard Zhao Hai, the five captains were even more confused. One of the captains named Zhang Chen looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Captain, we can see that there's something wrong with the fat man. He's an employer, so how can he offend us? He wasn't afraid that we would plot against him, but he still did. We can see that there's something wrong with him, but this doesn't mean that there won't be an accident in this mission, right?" The other captains nodded, it was clear that they agreed with Zhang Chen's words.
Zhao looked at them and waved his hand. "I said that there was a problem, not because he made me look bad, but because of something else. That fatty wanted to overwhelm me, nothing more than giving us a show of strength. He wanted us to completely obey him, so it would be more convenient for him to command us in the future. But after he was forcefully pushed back, he should have been very annoyed, but in the end, he endured it. This is the biggest problem." Zhao nodded and said, "I don't know what to say. I don't know what to say.
Zhang Chen and the others still didn't quite understand what Zhao Hai meant. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "You should also know that our next mission isn't a good one. The reward for this mission isn't very high. I think everyone should understand what this is all about. This is an escort mission that takes a long time, but there isn't any danger. Even if we send ten people to complete this mission, we can still smoothly complete it. But since this is our first mission in Demon Heart City, we absolutely can't make any mistakes. Therefore, we sent fifty people to complete this mission. It can be said that after deducting the reward and food expenses, our Blood Edge Gang won't be able to make a lot of money. I think everyone should be aware of this point."
Everyone nodded, indicating that they understood. They were all old members of the Blood-Edge Gang, so they would always take some missions in the past. However, the Blood-Edge Gang hasn't taken a mission like this one for a long time. In the past, when they were in Riverdeep City, they specifically took missions with high rewards. Missions with low rewards, low risks, and time were something that they disdained to take.
However, the Blood-Edge Gang had just entered Demonheart City. Moreover, Demonheart City wasn't like Riverdeep City. Demonheart City was filled with dragons and dragons. It was impossible for the Blood-Edge Gang to take missions like before. Because of this, they decided to take this mission. However, they still didn't understand what Zhao Hai meant when he said that this mission wouldn't be easy to complete.
Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "You still don't understand? That Fatty is a Fusion Soul Expert. He also brought twenty people with him. I'm afraid that the fighting strength of those twenty people isn't much worse than ours. In this case, do they still need to hire people? There's no need. With their strength, there's no need for them to hire people. If you were that Fatty and didn't need to hire people, then what would you do if you had a conflict with the people who hired you? Would he have just given them a small amount of money and sent them away? I believe that any normal person would have done that, but that fatty didn't. He didn't do that. He swallowed his anger. That can only mean one thing, and that is that he thinks we are needed for this mission. "
After saying this, Zhao Hai paused for a moment. Then he looked at the five captains and said, "Even with enough strength, he still thinks that we are needed. This only means that he knows that this mission will be dangerous. If that's the case, then do you still think that this mission will be easy?"
Zhang Chen and the others looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know what to say. To be honest, they didn't think of this point. After hearing what Zhao Hai said, they felt that it was reasonable.
Zhao Hai looked at the group and said, "This mission is our Blood Edge Gang's first mission in Demon Heart City, we can't afford any mistakes. I didn't think that we would receive such a mission. Looking at the current situation, there must be something hidden about this mission. No matter what it is, it isn't necessarily a good thing for us. Therefore, everyone must be careful. Moreover, I will report this matter to the Blood Edge Gang Leader and ask him to provide appropriate support. No matter what, we must ensure that this mission is completed smoothly."
As soon as they heard Zhao Hai, their expressions turned cold. Several of them quickly nodded. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "Alright, everyone can go and rest. Remember to remind your subordinates to be vigilant at all times." The group stood up and cupped their fists towards Zhao Hai. Then they turned around and left.
If they were not convinced by Zhao before, they no longer had such thoughts. Zhao had shown a lot of things from the fat man's reaction. Although they didn't completely believe Zhao, as rogue cultivators, they would rather believe in him than not. Only by being cautious could they survive until now. Zhao's words were not the same as the fat man's. Although they didn't completely believe Zhao's words, as rogue cultivators, they would rather believe in him than not. Only by being cautious could they survive until now.
After the five captains left, Ma Long immediately looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Junior Brother Zhao, is what you said true? Is there really a hidden story behind this mission? "Liu Cai also looked at Zhao with her eyes full of spirit.
Zhao Hai looked at the two, then he nodded and said, "It's true. I wouldn't joke about this kind of thing. Fortunately, I contacted Liu Zhentian before. The small transmission formation is still there. I'll tell Liu Zhentian about this matter and see how the Blood-Edge Gang will react. I hope that this mission can be completed safely."
When Ma Long and Liu Cai heard Zhao Hai, their expressions couldn't help but change. Their complexions turned ugly. To be honest, they didn't want any accidents to happen during this mission. They were from the Battle Corpse Sect, they didn't really want to join the Blood-Edge Gang. Naturally, there was no need for them to risk their lives for the Blood-Edge Gang. If this mission was really dangerous, then it wouldn't be good for them.
Zhao Hai looked at the two and said, "Alright, you don't need to worry too much. What I said is only a possibility. Maybe nothing will happen this time."
Ma Long and Liu Cai didn't look happy at all. This was because they had already discovered that what Zhao Hai said was true. In other words, this mission was very likely to be dangerous. This made the two of them feel a bit heavy in their hearts.
