"You'll only have the strength to protect us when you're full. If you only eat that flatbread, you won't have the strength to fight." As Feng Ye spoke, he stuffed the soy sauce meat into his hand.
Seeing this, Xu Yan took a deep look at the child beside him. He paused for a moment before saying, "Thank you." As he spoke, he gave the soy sauce meat wrapped in oil paper to everyone to eat.
After Feng Ye ate, he leaned against Zhao Yang and fell asleep by the fire. Not long after, he fell into a deep sleep. Compared to Feng Ye's relaxed state, Zhao Yang sat cross-legged with his back ramrod straight and his eyes closed to rest.
Looking at the two children, the mercenaries' eyes were filled with curiosity. Along the way, the two children had surprised them. The younger one was innocent and naive, while the older one had always been like a guard. Even with them guarding, he had always stayed by his little master's side without slacking in the slightest.
What kind of family could train such a young and responsible guard? They were truly curious.
The night passed peacefully until morning. After resting, everyone continued their journey on their swords. However, when they passed by a mountain, they were forced to stop by a group of rogue cultivators.
"Hand over all your money!" The rogue cultivators sternly shouted and gloomily stared at the Thunderfire Mercenaries.
Xu Yan blocked the two children behind him and had his team members protect them. He walked forward and said, "We're just passing by. There's no need to make things difficult for Your Excellency."
"Hahahahaha! We're making things difficult for you, so what? If you know what's good for you, hand over all your valuables. Otherwise, I'll make you leave behind your lives! "The rogue cultivator in the lead laughed loudly and clamored because he had more people than them.
Seeing this, Xu Yan made a hand gesture behind his back. In the next moment, he took the lead and rushed forward. The pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator carried a fierce aura. His blade was like a fierce tiger pouncing on its prey.
A cold glint was reflected by the rising sun. A sharp scream rang out, and a stream of blood splashed out, splattering all over the ground.
The sudden attack caused the rogue cultivators to panic, especially when they saw that the other party had killed one of their rogue cultivators in a single move, causing them to panic even more. The rogue cultivator in the lead shouted, "Don't panic! Kill them and take their belongings! Charge with me! "
With a shout, more than 20 rogue cultivators rushed forward. Each of them held a sharp knife in their hands. Killing intent burst out from their bodies and filled the air.
"Protect the two children!"
With Xu Yan's order, four mercenaries guarded Feng Ye and Zhao Yang closely, protecting them in the middle of the four people, not letting those rogue cultivators hurt them at all.
In the past, when they were out on missions, some employers did not treat them as human beings and ordered them around. When they encountered danger, they would push them forward, completely disregarding their lives.
However, although these two children were young, they were pure and kind. Even if they did not take their commission, they would still protect their safety. Not to mention, the two of them had paid so much commission to them.
Therefore, even if they were to lose their lives, they would do their best to protect them!
Feng Ye blinked his eyes as he looked at the flashes of swords and sabers around him. He looked at the whistling Sword Qi around him, but there was no fear in his eyes. There was only a calmness that was different from that of an ordinary child.
