In order to establish his dominance, the man who refused to accept Ye Mo was directly kicked out of the escort team by Ye Mo. Senior Ying did not say anything.
Being able to join the escort team this time was a rare opportunity. Firstly, they would be able to meet the head auctioneer of the Qi Clan. Secondly, they would be able to enter the Heaven's Wall City. Thirdly, the Qi Clan would be hosting a banquet for these fighters, with generous rewards.
Ye Mo did a headcount. Including him, there were a total of 12 people in the escort team. Among them, there were three Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighters, five Energy Shaping Seventh Realm fighters, three Energy Shaping Sixth Realm fighters, and himself, an Energy Shaping Fifth Realm fighter.
If one were to really compare battle prowess, Ye Mo, who had awakened 1,000 streams of Giant Dragon Power, would be able to put up a fight against an Energy Shaping Eighth Realm fighter.
"Alright, since this matter has been decided and everyone has agreed to it, all of you shall change into our Qi Family attire and dress up as the servants of the Qi Family. During this escort mission, there is a high possibility of encountering Energy Shaping Ninth Realm fighters, so all of you must be careful. After changing into your attire, Captain Ye will bring all of you to the convoy."
Senior Ying glanced at Ye Mo before leaving the warehouse.
The 12 people consisted of both males and females. However, three of the female fighters were clearly the fiercer ones. In front of everyone, they took off their outerwear and changed into the Qi Clan's attire.
As for the males, they were even more indifferent as they casually changed into their attire.
All 12 of them were dressed in white robes.
"Let's go!"
Ye Mo led everyone out of the warehouse and arrived at the street where the Treasure Inspection Guild was located. There were more than 20 horse carriages lined up in a row that was at least a hundred meters long.
The horses used to transport the goods were not normal horses. They were a type of wildebeest, similar to white colts.
However, white colts could be ridden, while wildebeests could only transport goods.
Xiao Cao and an elder were standing beside the carriages, counting the goods. Zhan Jun was still following behind Xiao Cao.
"Manager Qi, the escort team is here."
When Zhan Jun saw a group of people walking over, he lowered his head and said to the elder.
Manager Qi raised his head and saw 12 uniformed warriors walking over slowly. Each of them had an extraordinary aura, and among them, there were even Energy Shaping Eighth Realm warriors.
When Xiao Cao heard that, she immediately stopped what she was doing and locked onto Ye Mo. Jogging over, she said, "Young Master, Old Ying said that you will be part of the escort team this time. This is great!"
"Xiaocao, do you still remember what I told you back then? I promised that I would take good care of you. Although you are now the adopted daughter of the Qi Clan's leader, I will still fulfill my promise. So, this time, I will definitely protect you, "Ye Mo said.
"Young master!"
Xiao Cao was touched. If she had a choice, she would rather stay by Ye Mo's side and be the maid who sewed and patched Ye Mo's clothes.
"Hmph!"
When Zhan Jun saw this scene, a trace of anger welled up in his heart. He said, "Who's the leader of the escort team this time? Why aren't you managing your own team members properly?"
When the cultivators standing at the side saw this scene, they could not help but sneer. They were not fools. Naturally, they could tell that Zhan Jun was jealous.
"Where's the leader?"
When Zhan Jun saw that everyone was silent, he could not help but raise his tone.
"What did you call me for?"
Ye Mo rubbed Xiao Cao's head and told her to go back to her own matters before speaking to Zhan Jun.
"You're the leader?"
Zhan Jun was stunned as he said, "How is that possible? How can you be the leader of this escort team? With your strength, there's no way you can be the leader of this escort team. "
The people in front of him were all people who lived their lives on the edge of a knife. How could they be willing to listen to Ye Mo's orders?
"He is indeed our leader. Moreover, we are all convinced of his strength."
One of the women stood out and said calmly.
"Hmph, since you are the leader, you should lead by example. Xiao Cao is our Qi Clan's chief appraiser. Do not interact with her unless it's something important. Your mission is only to escort!" Zhan Jun said.
"What did you say?"
One of the barbarians stood out and shouted loudly, "Kid, Ye Mo is our leader. He has the right to interact with Miss Xiao Cao. Furthermore, it was Miss Xiao Cao who took the initiative to speak to the leader."
This barbarian was born simple and honest. He was shocked by Ye Mo's strength from the bottom of his heart. Zhan Jun purposely picking on Ye Mo was also picking on him.
"You!"
Zhan Jun was so angry that he was speechless.
"What about me? Fight me if you have the guts. All you know is to point fingers behind my back. Are all the young masters of Heaven's Wall City like this? "
As the barbarian spoke, the other fighters started laughing loudly.
"Alright, stop arguing. The goods have all been accounted for and loaded. We can set off now," Manager Qi said.
"Everyone, there are a total of 20 carriages. Energy Shaping Seventh and Eighth Realm fighters will each be responsible for protecting two carriages. Energy Shaping Sixth Realm fighters will be responsible for protecting one carriage," Ye Mo instructed.
The 12 members of the escort team each chose a carriage that they were to protect.
"Young Master, you have to be careful!"
Xiao Cao entered one of the carriages and stuck her cute little head out. After saying that, she retracted her head back into the carriage.
The convoy finally started moving. As the carriages were flying the Qi Clan Merchant Association's flag, all the cultivators automatically made way for them. The convoy was over a hundred meters long, it was indeed very frightening. The goods in the carriages were piled up like a small mountain.
Seeing this, the soldiers guarding the city gate immediately gave way. The convoy also slowly walked out of the Ancient Martial City and towards Heaven's Wall City.
After leaving the Ancient Martial City, everyone's spirits were tense as they constantly looked around, afraid that there would be an enemy attack.
The journey was smooth. After traveling for half a day, the convoy entered the Mist Forest.
The Mist Forest was a place that they had to pass through. It was shrouded in mist, and it would be very dangerous to travel alone. There were quite a number of Energy Shaping Realm monsters in the forest. However, with a 100-meter-long convoy and more than 10 Energy Shaping Realm fighters, the monsters did not dare to approach them. They could only watch as the convoy left.
It was already night time, and the Mist Forest was completely dark. Occasionally, the roars of monsters could be heard from the surroundings.
When night fell, powerful Demonic Beasts would appear at this time. It was the most dangerous time!
"We will rest here for the night and set up camp. The coachmen will be responsible for setting up camp, and the escort team will be responsible for patrolling the surroundings. Once there are any abnormalities, immediately send out a signal."
Ye Mo waved his hand, signaling for the convoy to stop.
The coachmen were obviously professionally trained. In less than 10 minutes, they set up two tents.
The fighters and coachmen did not need to rest, but Xiao Cao and Manager Qi did.
Xiao Cao jumped down from the carriage and said to Ye Mo, "Young Master, do you want to come in and rest for a while?"
"Xiao Cao, rest early," Ye Mo said with a smile.
"But Xiao Cao has something to say to Young Master."
Xiao Cao stood beside the tent, her face slightly red.
"Let's talk when we return to Heaven's Wall City. Everyone's safety is the most important. "
Ye Mo waved at Xiao Cao and said with a smile.
The map fragment might be in this convoy. For the sake of Xiao Cao's safety, Ye Mo did not dare to let his guard down.
Xiao Cao nodded, a somewhat lonely expression on her face. Then, she entered the tent.
"Brother Ye Mo, there seems to be something wrong with your girl's body."
Not long after Ling 'er finished speaking, a painful cry rang out from the tent.
