After Feng Ji freed himself from the painful position of the Golden Sun City Lord and became a temporary guard, he quickly got into his role.
He first made a sailing route and handed it to Bao Gu before presenting it to Yue Yang.
Then, he quickly returned to the City Lord's Mansion and brought out his long-legged lizard that was also starving. Fortunately, this Long-legged Running Lizard's loyalty was not bad. In addition, there were many times when Feng Ji would rather not have enough to eat himself and share a portion of his food with it. Otherwise, after starving for a few months, even the most good-tempered beast would run away.
"Don't tell me that you are planning to use this beast to lead the way?" The fat toad Jia De looked at it and sweated profusely. He thought to himself, Can you, a City Master, be any poorer?
"Where's the flying warbeast?" Bao Gu also felt that Feng Ji's position as the City Lord was wasted!
"Ah, there's no flying beast, but I dare say that as long as it's fed, it can run as fast as flying!" Feng Ji's words made Zhong Guan and the others laugh so hard that tears flowed down from their eyes. To be in such a state and still be a City Lord, they were really unlucky. Finally, the speechless fat toad Jia De waved his hand and ordered his underlings to prepare food for Feng Ji and the Long-legged Running Lizard.
Because Feng Ji and the others' food was served a little slower, he couldn't care less about the many people watching from the side and started to eat the raw meat together with the long-legged lizard.
Jia De and Bao Gu turned away, unwilling to look.
Even the reincarnation of a hungry ghost wouldn't be like this …
Looking at the bloody raw meat, Sha Tong, oppa, and the other Gold Sun Merchants secretly swallowed their saliva.
Fortunately, they were more conscious of their status and had better self-control. In addition, they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of a noble person, so they could only try their best to endure.
In the end, when the roast meat was finally placed on the table, and when Bao Gu opened his mouth to invite them, they immediately surrounded him impatiently. Everyone tore the meat with their hands. They didn't even have time to use any cutlery, nor did they need any condiments. They directly grabbed it tightly with their hands and stuffed it into their mouths with all their might.
Although Sha Tong, Oppa, and the others were wolfing down their food, no matter how ugly their table manners were, they were still better than Feng Ji, who was swallowing so quickly that his eyes were rolling back.
If not for his Quasi-Heaven Stage strength, Feng Ji would have choked to death on the spot!
It wasn't like Fat Toad Jia De had never seen starving poor people before. In the past, before the Third Young Master took over the mines in the Thunder Fortress, the number of slaves who starved to death every day was at least a few dozens. It wasn't strange at all. However, in the legendary Heaven Realm, in the Heaven Realm where rankers were as common as dogs, in the Heaven Realm where the rankers of Tong Tian Tower yearned for, there were actually people who were so hungry. It really made people speechless. Fatty Jia De dared to say that if the higher-ups in Tong Tian Tower knew the truth, they would probably refuse to come to Heaven Realm even if they were carried by eight carriages.
After a big meal, Feng Ji and the long-legged lizard's bellies bulged as if they were pregnant.
It would be a miracle if he didn't die from overeating, not to mention the journey!
"We'll give you a flying beast!" Bao Gu did not want to wait for this fellow to catch his breath before continuing his journey. He knew how precious Yue Yang's time was.
"No need, no need!" Feng Ji sucked on his toothpick, burped and waved his hand to refuse, "It's not a problem to hurry now. As long as my fast legs are full, they can run faster than most flying beasts!"
"Cut the crap and do as I say. Zhong Guan, give him a flying dragon and set off immediately." The fat toad Jia De ordered without any hesitation.
Although Yue Yang did not ask for it, Fat Toad Jia De would never allow anyone to waste his precious time.
No matter how fast this beast ran, it could only run on the ground.
The ground was rugged, how could it compare to flying in the sky? If they encountered mountains and hills, then the time needed to run on the ground would be countless times longer to reach their destination. There were flying beasts that didn't ride, but used four legs … No, this lizard still ran with its hind legs, which meant it had two legs … How could two legs be faster than flying in the sky?
Hearing this, Feng Ji's face suddenly turned awkward.
Butler Sha Tong, who was familiar with him, gathered his courage and stood up to explain, "City Lord Feng Ji, cough, it's Feng Ji's guard. He has acrophobia. Unless his life is in danger and he needs to avoid flying, he doesn't dare to fly in the sky."
When Bao Gu and Jia De heard this.
They all fell to the ground.
Good heavens, a warrior with the strength of a Quasi-Heaven Stage can't fly! It's fine if he can't fly, but he has acrophobia? Can this guy make people even more speechless?
"If you are not specially hired by the master, I will drag you to be buried alive." Zhong Guan had never seen such a person in his life.
If it was because of the special characteristics of the body, for example, fire people did not dare to go into the water, and water people did not dare to enter the hot and dry areas, it was still reasonable.
A normal cat race did not dare to fly. What was this?
Fortunately, he was not a flying race like Eagle Man or Yan Man. Otherwise, this kid would have been thrown away by his family as trash the moment he was born!
After Yue Yang heard this, he could not help but laugh. The Heaven Realm was really full of strange things. A Quasi-Heaven Stage could not fly, it was equivalent to the Innate Rankers of Tong Tian Tower could not fly. It was the same as having acrophobia! Of course, in Tong Tian Tower, because a warrior's strength was not innate, but cultivated, any Innate would definitely fly … … Not to mention acrophobia, even if the Innate Rankers of Tong Tian Tower were inferior in flying skills and flying speed, they would be despised! Moreover, after Innate Level 6, there was not much difference between living in the air and living on the ground.
"Zhong Guan and the others stay and cooperate with Bao Gu and Jia De to take care of Jin Yang City. The electric flower ore is the main point." Yue Yang made a decision at the last minute. He no longer sat on the luxurious airship. Instead, he followed Feng Ji and walked around the Tianhua Region. Perhaps this way, he would be able to obtain more information and understand the Snake-Haired Demonic Man's purpose of meeting him here.
Drunken Cat and Yue Yu entered Yue Yang's Grimoire World.
The Heaven Realm Dragon Woman and the luxury airship temporarily waited in Jin Yang City, while the fat toad Jia De and the others were busy.
Yue Yang and Princess Sissi, who were wearing the same platinum armor, appeared in front of Feng Ji and the others for the first time. Seeing the two of them dressed almost the same, Sha Tong, Oppa and the others were stunned. Even Feng Ji, who had good eyesight, was a little uncertain: "Please forgive my rudeness, which one is the Titan Boss?"
The fat toad Jia De was furious on the spot: "I really doubt if you are blind. The one beside Master Titan is the Mistress, Princess Sissi. You can't even recognize the most heroic Princess in the world, do you really know how to scout? Even a blind person is better than you! "
Actually, it was not Feng Ji's fault for not being able to tell the gender.
In Yue Yang's domain, no one could see through the truth. In addition, Princess Sissi and Yue Yang's armor were the same, a blurry image deceiving them. Unless one had solved the mystery at the Gate of Life and Death, or had the strength of an Innate Elder, who would be able to see through it? What Jia De and the others saw, under Yue Yang's control, was different from what Feng Ji and the others saw. In fact, what Feng Ji and Sha Tong and the others saw was completely different.
Feng Ji felt a little ashamed when Jia De showed off his strength.
However, he felt that this Master Titan and Princess Sissi's strength was a little lacking. Previously, he thought that they had the same strength as the King.
Because the guards were all Heaven Ranked Level 3, they should at least be Heaven Ranked Level 4, right? Unexpectedly, they seemed to be weaker than him. If they wanted to use this kind of strength to safely pass through Still Wind Swamp, it was really an impossible task.
Of course, this Master Titan and Princess Sissi might have hidden strength.
When the two of them stood together, they gave off a very strange feeling. They seemed to be very strong, but also seemed to be very weak. It was a little hard to judge.
Feng Ji decided to personally understand.
Otherwise, it would be too late to regret it when they reached Still Wind Swamp.
If he were to give up now, it would be better than dying in vain in Still Wind Swamp. Moreover, if nobles like Master Titan and Princess Sissi were to die because of him leading the way, not only him, even the commoners of Gold Sun City would be annihilated … … Feng Ji thought for a while, gathered his courage, and bowed to Yue Yang and Princess Sissi: "Since Master and Her Highness have given me the task of leading the way, then I have to be responsible for your safety. Before attempting to pass through Still Wind Swamp, I hope that Master and Her Highness can display impressive skills. Otherwise, if you get lost in Still Wind Swamp, no one will be able to save you. At that time, only death awaits … … "
"You want to test Master's skills?" Zhong Guan suddenly felt that this guy was a madman. If he wasn't a madman, why would he abandon the City Lord and become a guard? If he wasn't a madman, why would he use the identity of a guard to test the master's strength? Was this something he could do?
"You're courting death!" Hei Tu and Bai Ma were also furious. As for Hua Ban and Fei Huang, they were ready to beat him up.
How could he doubt the Third Young Master's identity?
Wouldn't it be fine to just be a spy? Why would he doubt the Third Young Master's strength? If the Third Young Master wasn't strong enough, would he leave behind all the guards to protect him and Her Highness? The fact that he made this decision showed that he had enough confidence, and this Feng Ji actually doubted this. What an incurable fool!
Yue Yang waved his hand, letting Hua Ban and Fei Huang retreat.
He made another gesture: "Come, I'll let you punch me. Let's see if you can determine my strength!"
Feng Ji naturally knew that doing this was strenuous and unrewarding, but no matter how bad it was, it was much better than dying in the Still Wind Swamp! He gritted his teeth and increased his strength. Of course, he didn't dare to use his full strength, but secretly reserved 30% of it, lest he hurt this' Master Titan 'who had an unknown status. After receiving another hint from Yue Yang, he threw a punch at Yue Yang.
Halfway through the punch.
Suddenly, he changed his direction at the last minute and hit Princess Sissi.
Princess Sissi originally didn't want to pay too much attention to him, but now she noticed the persistence of this pathfinder thief. Sometimes, persistence was not a good thing, but if the intention was good, it was definitely not a bad thing.
She stretched out a finger and casually caught Feng Ji's punch with 70% of his strength.
At first, Feng Ji, who thought that her strength was similar to his, was stunned on the spot, while Sha Tong and Oppa's jaws dropped to the ground.
She was able to block Feng Ji's sneak attack with just one finger. Just how powerful was this princess? But she clearly didn't look like she had the strength of Heaven Rank. What was going on?
Feng Ji was stunned for three seconds before he reacted. He bowed to Princess Sissi and sincerely apologized, "Your Highness, Feng Ji just wanted to test your strength and reaction speed. In the Still Wind Swamp, there is danger at any time, so …" Before he finished speaking, he jumped and threw a punch at Yue Yang. This time, he didn't hold back, but used all his strength to attack Yue Yang.
In the Still Wind Swamp, there were many powerful and unpredictable Heaven Rank Magical Beasts. If he couldn't even handle this sneak attack, then it was better not to go to the Still Wind Swamp!
Yue Yang also stretched out a finger.
His movement seemed to be slow.
It was so slow that anyone could see it clearly.
Including Feng Ji who launched a sneak attack. That very slow finger unbelievably bypassed Feng Ji's lightning-fast fist. It didn't block like Princess Sissi, but directly counterattacked.
He lightly flicked his finger on Feng Ji's forehead.
In the next second, Feng Ji flew out like a cannonball. He flew ten thousand meters away, broke dozens of trees, and crashed into the mountain with a rumble.
Oppa, Sha Tong, and the rest were so scared that their knees went weak and their bodies trembled. They wanted to immediately kneel in front of this powerhouse and beg for forgiveness, but they were afraid that doing so would make the other party unhappy. They panicked and didn't know how to react.
After an unknown amount of time, Feng Ji crawled out from the deep mud pit like a dead dog.
He spat at the soil in his mouth.
Feng Ji bowed in admiration while suppressing his excitement, and shouted, "I have offended you. However, this test makes me feel at ease. With the powerful strength of you and Her Highness, in addition to my scouting, I now have at least a sixty percent chance of passing through the Still Wind Swamp. If I find another person, with his dog nose and my cat eyes working together, the success rate can even increase to eighty percent. Even if I fail, I think I can escape safely. After all, the strength of you and Her Highness is the most powerful guarantee! Master Tai Tan, are you willing to hire another hunter from the Hound Clan? I dare say that it doesn't cost much money, as long as he can eat meat bones every meal, it will be enough! "
Yue Yang nodded, "It doesn't matter if I spend some money, but we must pass through the Still Wind Swamp."
Feng Ji was overjoyed when he heard this. Regardless of the dirt all over his body, he jumped onto the back of the long-legged lizard and waved his hand, "Master, and Her Highness, let's go!"
"Wait a minute!" Zhong Guan and the others suddenly surrounded him.
"What do you want? Just now, Master personally agreed to let me take the test, and I didn't hurt Master! "Feng Ji realized that something was wrong. These guards who let him steal the limelight, were they trying to avenge their personal grudges?
"What Master said cannot be doubted, of course, we have no objection. However, you have joined the ranks of our guards, and as usual, we have to welcome the newcomer! " Zhong Guan smiled and patted Feng Ji's shoulder, with a warm look of 'I am your boss, I will protect you in the future'. Feng Ji's heart warmed up, and he quickly jumped down to greet them one by one, "I haven't greeted all of you just now, I am too impatient. What is the welcome ceremony? How about this, when the task is over, I will invite all of you to drink! "
"There is no hurry to drink, now is the welcome time for the newcomer to join, the ceremony is very important! Our guards have such a fine tradition … "
Zhong Guan punched Feng Ji in the face, knocking him down.
Hei Tu, Bai Ma, and the others also surrounded him and beat him up.
They didn't stop until they were tired.
Feng Ji wanted to cry, but no tears came out. What kind of welcome ceremony was this? Damn it, this was simply abuse of the newcomer!
Zhong Guan reached out to him and pulled Feng Ji up. He patted his clothes and said earnestly, "Because you have a mission, you can't take up too much of Master's time. The following welcoming ceremony will be postponed for the time being. When you come back, we will definitely welcome you to join us grandly again. Don't cry, in fact, your welcome ceremony is already considered good, to think of us … young people, the tradition must be inherited and carried forward, that is a good tradition! "
Feng Ji now understood what was going on. It turned out that these guys had been beaten before they joined, so once a newcomer joined, they would be beaten up.
Damn, this kind of tradition …
Of course, this beating could only be in vain. He wiped his tears and nodded solemnly to Zhong Guan, "Captain, don't worry, when a newcomer joins, I will definitely welcome him well, and let him understand what a good tradition is!" At the end, Feng Ji gritted his teeth, wishing that a newcomer would join immediately, so that he could beat him up to vent the anger in his heart.
"It's good that you understand!" Zhong Guan's big fist hit Feng Ji's face, and when Feng Ji fell to the ground, he kicked him with his big foot, "Welcoming a newcomer is the benefit of every old member, you must remember this!"
"Don't beat him too long, let's beat him for another ten minutes!" Yue Yang had never opposed this tradition, in fact, he was the first to create this tradition.
Sometimes, the more you hate, the angrier you get, the more motivation you have to work.
The more you feel like this in your heart, the more hope you have.
The more you wait, the more patience you will have.
Although not all, many things in the world are like this …
