After a moment of thought, Jianchen said, "Alright then. Since the six clans have come to get in our way, I might as well go all the way and subdue them all. It'll save me the trouble. Lead the way. I'll go over right now."
Afterward, Jianchen called You Yue and Tie Ta to leave the inn together. They mounted their Class 3 Magical Beasts and quickly disappeared into the end of the street.
At this moment, in a luxurious courtyard in Cloud Capital City, hundreds of burly men were crowded inside. They formed a circle that surrounded a small group of about 50 people, and it was so tight that not even a drop of water could leak through.
Within this small group of over fifty people, the five people standing at the very front were the most eye-catching. In Cloud City, there were probably only a few people who did not recognize them. This was because they were the leader of the Blood Thorn Mercenary Group, Hani, the leader of the Blood Rose Mercenary Group, Jasmine, the leader of the Carnage Mercenary Group, Warsky, and the two vice leaders, Shan Xiong and Mu Chi.
Molly and Ha Ni stared at the people around them sternly. Their gazes lingered on the people at the very front for a long time. They were extremely stern because all of them were famous in the city. They were all Earth Saint Masters, and there were even some people who had been Earth Saint Masters for many years who were much more powerful than them. They could easily take on two people by themselves.
On the other hand, Zhan Tian, Mu Chi, and Shan Xiong all had relaxed expressions on their faces. Even though they were surrounded by more than ten experts of the same level, there was not the slightest bit of worry on their faces. Instead, there was a faint sneer of disdain and ridicule.
The two sides remained in a stalemate for a while before Zhan Tian aggressively took a step forward. He sneered, "Everyone, may I ask what is the meaning of this? Do you want to start a war with the Flame Mercenaries? "
"Sigh, Zhan Tian, Mu Chi, Shan Xiong, Jasmine, Hani, although we aren't very familiar with each other, we've met each other a few times. What we didn't expect was that all of you would give up the good post of captain and choose to join the Blazing Mercenaries, willing to become pawns with no future. Is this worth it? It was as though he felt that it was not worth it for Zhan Tian's group of five to become someone else's subordinates.
"Zhan Tian, Jasmine, Hani, the three of you should withdraw from the Raging Flame Mercenary Group. Think about how glorious it is to be the leader of a faction. Why do you need to become someone else's lackey? This is simply an insult to your status." A middle-aged man also opened his mouth to advise them.
"That's right, Zhan Tian. Your Carnage Mercenary Group is the most powerful mercenary group in Cloud City. Now, you have to sacrifice your entire group's strength for someone else. It's not worth it."
"It's still not too late to turn back now. With the power of our Cloud Capital, we will definitely be able to drive out the evil forces …"
The leaders of many forces were trying to persuade Warsky's group of five to leave the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. Unless they had no other choice, they didn't want to start a fight with Zhan Tian's group of five. As the saying goes, if you kill a thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred of your own men. Moreover, the strength of the three great mercenary groups commanded by Zhan Tian and the other two couldn't be underestimated. Once the two sides started fighting, they would also suffer some losses.
"That's enough, all of you stop talking." Mu Chi waved his hand somewhat impatiently. "We're all proud to be able to join the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. Don't use these harsh words to provoke us, because it's completely useless."
"That's right. I, Hani, am extremely fortunate to be able to join the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. You people from the six great families should stop fanning the flames and sowing discord between us and the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. It's completely a waste of effort." The leader of the Bloodthorn Mercenary Group, Harry, also frowned impatiently. He had obtained an Earth Tier Battle Skill that he had yearned for even in his dreams as soon as he joined the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. It had almost driven him crazy with excitement, so he was naturally very protective of this group that he had just joined.
The expressions of the leaders of the six great families and the other forces all became rather gloomy. One of them said with a heavy voice, "It looks like you've been poisoned too deeply. There's no saving you."
"Hehe, everyone, it seems that us joining the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group has nothing to do with you at all. Since when do we need you to interfere in our own affairs?" Warsky laughed loudly.
Everyone chose to remain silent in response to Warsky's words.
Warsky ignored the people from the six great families and looked at an old man beside him. He clasped his hands and said, "Patriarch Gerry, may I ask if you've considered the suggestion I made earlier? If you join our Blazing Flame Mercenary Group, you will receive something you'll never be able to obtain in your entire life. Moreover, your future will be limitless."
"How dare you, Warsky. Gerry is already a member of our alliance, yet you're trying to recruit him before so many of us. What do you think of our alliance?" An old man called out with a heavy voice. His face was rather ugly. The Blazing Flame Mercenary Group that Warsky and the others represented was becoming more and more lawless. They actually showed no fear before so many of them, which made many of them feel rather uneasy.
There had to be a reason for this abnormality!
"I never thought that this place would be much livelier than I imagined. I think all the influential organisations in Cloud Capital have gathered here." Suddenly, a clear voice rang out from outside. A few young men and women swaggered in from outside. All of them wore luxurious clothes and possessed extraordinary bearings.
The eyes of Warsky and the others lit up when they saw them, because the people who had come this time were Jianchen's group.
Everyone in the courtyard stared at Jianchen's group. Their faces were extremely hostile.
"Who are you?" A middle-aged man glared at Jianchen's group and called out harshly.
"This is the captain of our Blazing Flame Mercenary Group." Before Jianchen could say anything, Warsky took the initiative to introduce him. He knew that Jianchen was a peak Heaven Saint Master with a limitless future, so he obviously had to curry favor with him.
Everyone stared at Jianchen in surprise after hearing Warsky's introduction. They were extremely surprised. Many of them had never thought that the captain of the Flame Mercenary Group that had subdued the three great mercenary groups of Cloud Capital would be a young man who did not even seem to be in his twenties.
"And I had thought that the captain of the Flame Mercenary Group would be some great figure. I never thought that he would be a child who still smells of his mother's milk. What a joke," a black-robed old man mocked.
"I never thought that the three great mercenary groups of Cloud Capital would be willing to submit to a child who still smells of his mother's milk. Sigh, what a pity," a skinny old man shook his head and sighed.
Jianchen's eyes turned cold when he heard what the two of them had said. He called out, "Ming Dong, Dugu Feng!"
Ming Dong and Dugu Feng understood what he meant. They both drew their Saint Weapons and charged toward the two people who had spoken. Their Saint Weapons surged with energy as they stabbed toward the two of them.
The two old men who had spoken were also the leaders of a group. They were also Earth Saint Masters, so they reacted extremely quickly. They immediately drew their Saint Weapons to block the attacks.
The giant sword in Dugu Feng's hand blazed with flames as it collided with his opponent's Saint Weapon with a thunderous boom. His opponent, the black-robed old man, was forced to stagger backwards by the impact.
"A Third Cycle Earth Saint Master!" The black-robed old man was surprised, but in the next moment, his face drastically changed from fright when he heard Dugu Feng's words.
"Earth Tier Battle Skill, Worldsplitter!" Dugu Feng's huge sword shone with a bright light as powerful energy surged from it. He then wielded the sword with both hands and raised it high above his head. He swung it toward the black-robed old man with enough force to split a mountain.
The black-robed old man wanted to dodge, but a powerful pressure suddenly appeared and pressed down on his body. He felt like he was in a quagmire, like he was being weighed down by a huge rock. Even moving was difficult. In the end, he had no choice but to use a Human Tier Battle Skill he knew to block Dugu Feng's Earth Tier Battle Skill.
The clash between a Human Tier Battle Skill and an Earth Tier Battle Skill was like throwing an egg at a rock. The black-robed old man was blown far away as blood constantly spurted from his mouth. He was heavily injured.
At the same time, the skinny old man was heavily injured by Ming Dong as well. He fell to the ground twenty meters away, creating a small crack. His face was pale as he constantly coughed up blood. His injuries were much more severe than the black-robed old man's.
Although Ming Dong did not use a Battle Skill, his strength as a Sixth Cycle Earth Saint Master was extremely terrifying. Dealing with a Second Cycle Earth Saint Master was a piece of cake for him.
The strength that Ming Dong and Dugu Feng had displayed surprised quite a few people, but they were not afraid because they had over a dozen experts on their side. They possessed an absolute advantage in terms of numbers. No matter how powerful their opponents were, they could still suppress them.
However, the Earth Tier Battle Skill that Dugu Feng displayed was something that everyone coveted. Everyone looked at Dugu Feng with undisguised greed in their eyes.
"How dare you touch a member of our alliance? Everyone, attack together!" Suddenly, an old man bellowed out. He immediately drew his Saint Weapon and charged toward Dugu Feng. His eyes burned with desire.
The other Earth Saint Masters all returned to their senses with the old man's words. All of them rushed toward Dugu Feng.
Jianchen sneered as he watched the experts charge toward Dugu Feng. He sneered, "You don't know what's good for you!" With that, Jian Chen reached out with both hands, and surging energy of the world rapidly gathered. Afterward, he suddenly pushed his hands forward, and an extremely surging storm of energy erupted from his hands. It seemed like a furious dragon was roaring as it rapidly charged forward.
The dozen or so Earth Saint Masters charging at Dugu Feng did not even have the time to react before they were struck by the surging energy. The clothes on the upper half of their bodies were instantly reduced to dust before they all spat out a mouthful of dark red blood. Their bodies were like broken kites as they flew back several dozen meters before crashing to the ground in an extremely miserable manner.
In less than a breath's time, the awe-inspiring Earth Saint Masters were all heavily injured and lying on the ground.
