Dongfang Yong was about to speak up and dissuade, but Feng Luochen had already firmly placed his fingerprint on the contract without any hesitation.
As he pressed his finger, he also said,
"Having the opportunity to get to know such an amazing senior is a stroke of fortune. Besides, this rcenary Corps is called Phoenix, which sounds incredibly aweso just by the na. If we pull Hong Xuan in with us, we will surely make a na for ourselves in the future, becoming the strongest King of Soldiers. Then let’s see how Dugu Wu dares to bully us."
Feng Luochen sold himself with great bravado.
Dongfang Yong was incredibly anxious.
He didn’t know how formidable the other party was, but he was certain their shrewdness ran deep; the three of them combined couldn’t match a single fingertip of the other party in wits.
Dongfang Yong was also deeply moved.
Being an illegitimate child from the Prince Shun’s Mansion, he had always been underestimated and lacked the warmth of sibling bonds. Having known Feng Luochen for only a month or two, he was touched that he would risk his prospects for Dongfang Yong.
"Once you’re moved, get up and accept the job."
Feng Bailing felt that these two naïve fellows were too immature; sending them directly to the Competition Among Ten Countries would make them cannon fodder. It’s better to let them train with Hong Xuan before the competition starts.
"There are rcenary tasks available in Chu City?"
Feng Luochen asked curiously.
"This ti the task I have for you is our own, aside from the rcenary Corps, I also own the Phoenix Chamber of Comrce."
As soon as Feng Bailing finished speaking, Feng Luochen exclaid in surprise.
"Senior, you’re so amazing; you actually own the Phoenix Chamber of Comrce. It’s been really popular in Chu City recently. Its goods often sell out, I wanted to buy more canned food and aromatherapy candles, but couldn’t even grab them."
The Phoenix Chamber of Comrce was recently established, but its developnt prospects were looking great.
Especially abroad, items like fruit cans and candles brought in a hefty profit for the chamber every day.
However, the owner of this chamber was very mysterious; the Zhang Brothers, Zhang Dafa and Zhang Erfa, claid there was even a bigger boss above them, who had yet to show himself.
"You go find the Zhang Brothers. They will arrange the tasks for you. Don’t worry, as long as you complete the task this ti, it will help you improve your Cultivation."
Feng Bailing planned to have them run a few escort missions for the chamber.
With the borders of various countries being restless recently, having rcenaries protect the goods would make them a lot safer.
"My Gang Qi still hasn’t recovered."
Dongfang Yong was still distrusted by Feng Bailing.
The other party looked far too young. Did they truly possess such formidable strength?
Feng Bailing did not say much more, casually tossing out two small bottles; one for each person.
"It slls so good! It’s even more fragrant than beer."
Feng Luochen had no doubt as he drank the liquor from the bottle.
The mont it was downed, his face turned red.
"What a good drink!"
He felt as if the Gang Qi in his body had grown sowhat.
Dongfang Yong also drank the liquor.
As soon as it reached his stomach, he felt like a fire had been lit inside; the previously unseen Gang Qi suddenly recovered.
This person was truly terrifying; with just a flick of a finger, they could deplete his Gang Qi, and with just a sip of liquor, they could restore it. Just who was this remarkable individual?
The drink Feng Bailing gave to Dongfang Yong and Feng Luochen was actually an enhanced version of Monkey Wine.
With a few drops of Spiritual Spring added, not only was the liquor more fragrant and llow, but it could also restore so things.
Besides beer, Feng Bailing also planned to start selling Monkey Wine after a while, which would surely improve the chamber’s sales even further.
The two of them dared not say more, obediently going to find Hong Xuan and heading to the Phoenix Chamber of Comrce to receive their orders.
Seeing the two leave, Feng Bailing was about to depart, when suddenly, her brow twitched, and her gaze, sharp as a torch, turned towards the end of the alley.
Just now, she felt she had sensed sothing.
The opponent’s speed was very fast, so much that even Feng Bailing’s seventh sense couldn’t catch it in ti.
Feng Bailing hesitated a mont, then with a flash, entered the dical cabin.
After a good while, a large white wolf walked out from the end of the alley.
Dugu Xiaojin looked around curiously.
The mysterious woman from before had disappeared.
Her strength was formidable, probably on par with Father Emperor.
Poor Uncle, along with his friends, had all been sold out.
He was sowhat worried but decided to follow and see what would happen to Uncle and the others.
After all, he wouldn’t be able to leave the Imperial Academy any ti soon; it might be better to take this chance to go out and see the world.
Dugu Xiaojin, who had grown up thus far, had never even left Chu City.
Despite Dugu Xiaojin’s young age, he had heard of the rcenary Corps.
They were a group of incredibly formidable people that even the Emperor couldn’t control.
After thinking it over, Dugu Xiaojin followed the direction Dongfang Yu and the others had taken when they left.
"Is that wolf the one from the Crown Prince Mansion?"
Feng Bailing had just co out of the dical cabin.
By the ti Feng Bailing wanted to follow, the wolf had already disappeared without a trace.
Feng Bailing thought for a mont and originally wanted to warn Feng Luochen and the others, but then he considered that this mission itself was a test for them. Although the wolf’s origin was unknown, its entire body’s snow-white fur seed quite gentle in nature, dissimilar to Xiao Junci’s Greedy Wolf Army.
"Fine, consider it a test for them."
Feng Bailing murmured.
The wolf’s forehead faintly bore the Wuji Fire Seal; if it had really been set to deal with Dongfang Yong and Feng Luochen, they would have died long ago in the Crown Prince Mansion.
By the ti Feng Bailing returned to Xinglin Spring, the corpse had already been brought into the back yard and placed inside a coffin.
Dugu Wu and the Third Prince had also arrived.
"Is this really from the Crown Prince Mansion? What on earth is my second brother up to, and should we report this to Father Emperor?"
The Third Prince’s face was filled with unease.
"The Eldest Prince just died recently, and the Crown Prince has just awoken. Speaking ill of the Crown Prince now would only provide others with evidence against you. Besides, without any evidence apart from this body, your words hold no weight."
Dugu Wu had also examined the body, whose Dantian was completely shattered.
The Crown Prince Mansion’s actions this ti were obviously much more cautious than the last incident involving the abduction of children.
He had asked the brothers Feng Zao and Feng Wan to shadow the Crown Prince Mansion, and after so long, there were still no findings.
The Old Grand Preceptor had died, and Dongfang Yu himself didn’t have such strategic ability, indicating there was an even more formidable person behind the Grandmaster Mansion.
"What should we do then? We can’t just sit by and watch as the Crown Prince Mansion continues to harm people."
The Third Prince scratched his head.
"Find out the identity of this corpse, and before the Crown Prince Mansion can act, deliver the body to his family. This shouldn’t be hard for you."
Dugu Wu spoke with a profound aning, glancing at the Third Prince.
Hearing this, the Third Prince instantly bead with joy and left to give the orders.
Soon after the Third Prince had left, Dugu Wu then turned to Feng Bailing.
"I’ve already had Chun Liu take Xiao Li to the Princess’ Mansion."
"Why send Xiao Li away?"
Feng Bailing was startled. With Xiaojin in confinent and out of sight, she was already missing her; now with Xiao Li being sent away too, wouldn’t she have to face Dugu Wu alone every day?
Feng Bailing’s beautiful eyes widened, wait a second, could it be that Dugu Wu wanted to have a world of two with her?
