The speaker, while talking, did not forget to give Jin Nuo a disdainful look that said, "don’t drag down if you’re going to die."
As the saying goes, n perish for money as birds die for food. The Imperial Dragon Rider Group is rich and powerful, a single feather from them can feed an ordinary family for a whole month. Although Jin Nuo was willing to step aside, it did not an Yue Jinghua was willing to suffer losses.
Their July rcenary Team could not afford it; they had a limited budget, lost two promising mbers (Yue Chen and Ye Zi) after a single trip to the Sky Dragon Palace, and with the end of the year approaching, they would have to disband any ti if they could not clear their negative record.
According to the rules of the rcenary Branch, if they find a Holy-grade Profound Treasure during an adventure, it can be directly exchanged for points.
Regardless of whether those five Dragon Slayer Holy Armors are genuine or not, seizing one is still seizing one.
If the equipnt could be used by mbers of the July Team, that would be best; if not, they could still exchange it for points at the Five Saints Branch.
Unlike the others present, Yue Jinghua has been a rcenary for a short ti, and as the saying goes, a newborn calf isn’t afraid of tigers. She didn’t care about the Dragon Knight rcenary Corps; in her eyes, this so-called "Dragon Knight" was just a horse. How powerful could a rcenary group symbolized by a horse really be?
No matter if it’s Luo Ri or an everlasting day, anyone who stands in her and the July Team’s way must be thoroughly eradicated,
Thinking of this, Yue Jinghua did not hesitate to leap into action.
"Who are you to interrupt when neither the Divine Court nor the Dragon Rider Group have spoken?" Luo Yun, seeing her, a dium-height person who couldn’t even lift or carry things and lacked any noteworthy equipnt. Most chilling was the ragged, junk-like great sword poking out from behind her back.
Great Swords, in the eyes of Luo Yun and most of the high-level rcenaries, are the lowest of the low as weapons.
Only those foolish, brute force rcenaries who can’t afford better equipnt would choose to use Great Swords.
This young rcenary marked with a two-star insignia seed as insignificant as a buffoon in Luo Yun’s eyes.
"Yue Jinghua, the captain of the July rcenary Team, these are my rcenary partners behind . We entered with the Black Dragon Camp of the Imperial Dragon Cavalry, but we just tagged along; we have nothing to do with what Jin Nuo just said about ’forfeiting’, nor does it relate to us," Yue Jinghua hastily clarified her relationship with Jin Nuo. This simpleton, who was not only gullible but also stupid, had abandoned the Dragon Slayer Holy Armor, truly a foolish captain.
"July rcenary Team?" Luo Yun looked over this mismatched and assorted "mixed army", especially when he saw Qin Dongting, he burst into an irritating laughter.
"I wondered who it was, turned out to be you, Qin Dongting, you little bastard. I wondered why I hadn’t seen you for a while, turns out you’ve co to Xuan Beast Ridge. Tsk tsk, imagine Lord Bo Sai’s face if he saw his illegitimate child fallen to joining such a lowly squad," Luo Yun cackled, sounding worse than a crow, his mocking words stabbed deeply into Qin Dongting’s heart like venomous fangs.
Illegitimate son?
Lord Bo Sai’s illegitimate son?
Qin Dongting’s biological father, the legendary King of rcenaries among the Ten Strongest, rcenary King Bo Sai?!
Even the mbers of the July rcenary Team, who had been with Qin Dongting for quite so ti, were astonished upon learning this news.
Mountain and River Fan tightly held in Qin Dongting’s hands, the bones of the fan turning white from his grip.
"You are mistaken, my surna is Qin, and I have nothing to do with Lord Bo Sai you ntioned," Qin Dongting took a deep breath and raised his head, his ethereal face showing only a trace of indifference.
"Surna Qin?! Ha ha, indeed, your mother Qin Yueshan is nothing but a maid who seduced the young master," Luo Yun said smugly.
About the romantic affair between Lord Bo Sai, the King of rcenaries, and his childhood maid-lover Qin Yueshan, not many in the rcenary World are aware of it; Luo Yun had heard it from his father, Luo Ri.
Bo Sai belonged to a distinguished family, and before he made his na early in his years, he and his personal maid, Qin Yueshan, shared mutual feelings of love. However, after he beca famous, he married Miss Li from a prominent family instead.
It is said that not long after his marriage, the maid Qin Yueshan left ho. Rumor-mongers claid that at that ti, Qin Yueshan was already carrying the bloodline of the rcenary King.
The more Luo Yun talked, the more vigorous he beca, and as he was about to expose Qin Dongting’s past, suddenly, he felt a numbing sensation on his scalp as if it was about to explode, and as though a lump of phlegm was stuck in his throat, the mockery he was about to voice got choked in his throat, unable to proceed.
The other mbers of the July rcenary Team, from Chi Xi to Shalman, Weiwei, Feng Buhui, seed as if they had agreed, simultaneously brandished their weapons and Dark Beasts.
Shalman’s Five-Colored Spider, the wind and earth Xuan Power stirring around Weiwei, Feng Buhui’s Demon Mark terrifying on his arm, Chi Xi caressing his Fire Storage Bracelet, and among them, what made Luo Yun most uneasy was Yue Jinghua, who was only a few steps away from him.
The brilliance of the Liu Xing Xuan Fire Array, refractions of the light, casting Yue Jinghua’s silhouette looming lonely and steep, yet her face was wearing an exceptionally gentle smile, this combination of gentleness and steepness, like ice and fire, made her expression eerily intriguing.
Luo Yun felt as if he was witnessing a vastly grim killing aura, swirling around Yue Jinghua.
"You, you guys, what are you trying to pull, don’t think I’m scared of you, just a bunch of one-star and two-star rcenaries," Luo Yun felt as if his tongue was tied, unable to articulate clearly.
"Young Master Yun, can’t you understand human language, or is your brain not functioning well, he clearly told you, his surna is Qin. It has nothing to do with the Bo Sai you ntioned, rember it well, there wasn’t in the past, there isn’t now, and there won’t be in the future," Yue Jinghua said thodically and very slowly yet clearly.
Each of her words, like heavy blows, resounded in Luo Yun’s mind.
The enraged Luo Yun only felt a buzzing in his head, unexpectedly his legs weakened and Li Ran imdiately supported him.
"Young Master Yun originally fears heights too, you should be cautious," Yue Jinghua chuckled, then moved back to her companions’ side.
Luo Yun was so angry he almost spat out three liters of blood, not understanding why his legs suddenly turned weak.
"Young Master?!" A sharp gleam flashed through Li Ran’s eyes as he glanced at Yue Jinghua.
Luo Yun might not know, but Li Ran was very aware, the young master had probably been secretly sabotaged.
The present young man, despite his young age, had great skills in scheming and trickery, Li Ran did not know what thod he had used just now that made the young master fall for it inadvertently.
Witnessing his companions’ earlier actions, Qin Dongting, who normally had a stern face, felt a surge of warmth in his chest at this mont.
"Thank you," he said softly, almost whispering.
"Why so polite, we are companions," said Feng Buhui firmly, gripping his shoulder firmly, the others also shared warm smiles.
"Let’s be the first-generation soldiers if we can’t be second-generation ones, disregard what that old and outdated Dragon Knight rcenary Group says. They have a glorious past behind them; we have a brilliant future ahead. This ti, the Dragon Slayer Holy Armor is a must-win for us, it’s ti for our July rcenary Team to make a na for ourselves," Yue Jinghua exchanged determined looks with everyone.
Daring to insult her companion, Luo Yun was simply courting death, this ti was a minor "Divine Stab" spiritual attack, next ti, it would be his life.
The mbers of the July rcenary Team comprehended and nodded solemnly.
