The Titan had been flying for over a month, and everyone’s luck was fairly good. They only encountered a thunderstorm once. After so rest and repairs, the Titan resud its journey.
Finally, on the morning of the thirty-fourth day, just as dawn was breaking and after passing through a fiery red patch of clouds, the Titan landed in front of a low hill.
Beneath the hill was a private estate.
Calling it a private estate, it was more like a small village.
This sowhat surprised Yue Jinghua; she had originally thought the Reversed Fire rcenary Group had at most around a hundred people.
Once Feng Buhui explained, she learned that the Reversed Fire rcenary Group had over five hundred permanent rcenaries, not counting the reserves, plus over a thousand reserve soldiers and their families. The base of the Reversed Fire rcenary Group was affectionately called Ni Family Manor by the rcenaries.
"Married rcenaries are allowed to have their own private houses in the manor to accommodate their families and relatives. The size of the private houses is based on individual rcenary points, and the two brothers of the Ni family live in the northernmost part of the manor. The manor may seem small, but its layout is very complete. There are weapon shops, an Elixir dicine Shop, and other notable stores. Ni Huo may seem impulsive, but he is actually a ticulous thinker. He broke through to Dark Heavenly two years ago, making him a newly crowned rcenary King on the continent with the title ’Fire Scythe.’ According to the rules of the rcenary World, each rcenary King receives a Directional Transmission Scroll after being titled, which in ergencies, sends the rcenary King to Geyue Town," Feng Buhui spoke very carefully, after Yue Jinghua had agreed to help Ni Qianjun despite past grudges, and Feng Buhui had already implicitly regarded her as the only team leader for the rest of his life.
Geyue Town does not publicly disclose its location, allowing the rcenaries to go to the town to register themselves, which is a kind of implicit test, sothing both Yue Jinghua and Qin Dongting were clearly aware of.
Yue Jinghua and the July rcenary Team arrived at the entrance of Ni Family Manor together.
At the entrance stood four rcenaries, all with eyes like torches and imposing figures. Yue Jinghua swept them with her Divine Sense and discovered that their skills were all around Dark Earth Great Success, slightly better than Feng Buhui earlier.
One of them recognized Feng Buhui and disdainfully glanced at his arm, spitting out: "Feng Buhui, you traitor, still have the face to return to Ni Family Manor?"
Feng Buhui had left the Reversed Fire rcenary Group during his pri.
There are two types of leaving the rcenary World; one is forced retirent due to disability, which often cos with overwhelming honor and good reputation.
The other type is notoriously frowned upon. That is, joining another group and leaving the original team.
Such departures, whether for fa or fortune, are scorned in the rcenary World.
When Feng Buhui had to leave the Reversed Fire rcenary Group due to a handicap, the group had even prepared a feast for him in celebration.
Who would have thought that more than half a year later, rumors would spread that Feng Buhui had joined an obscure little rcenary squad.
The rcenaries did not believe it at first until they saw Feng Buhui and his supposed-to-be-disabled arm once again, and then they "suddenly realized."
"Yang Chang, I’m here to see Qian Jun, please announce my arrival," Feng Buhui also recognized the rcenary; the two had been close comrades and roommates, but now, seeing the contempt in the other’s eyes, Feng Buhui felt bitter.
"You still have the nerve to ntion the deputy team leader? Those beside you must be from that insignificant little team, huh? Hmph, birds of a feather flock together, you such a worthless person only deserve such a sleazy team, get lost." Yang Chang looked aslant, seeing the mbers of the July rcenary Team as odd looking.
Won were all frail, and n were either tall or short, fat or skinny, handso or ugly. If it was about choosing the "Most Bizarre rcenary Team," they might just qualify, yet Feng Buhui abandoned the overly five-star Reversed Fire rcenary Group for such an insignificant rcenary squad.
"Kid, who did you say is not up to snuff? Our July rcenary Team is the fastest rising Five-star rcenary Team on the continent," Luo Compass burst into flas upon hearing this, waving his millstone-like fists, poised to punch Yang Chang.
"Pah, sightless fool, if you guys are a Five-star rcenary Team, then I am the rcenary King Bo Sai," Yang Chang, with his eyebrows fiercely knitted, picked up the heavy axe in his hand, ready to swing it at Luo Compass.
"Luo Compass, Yang Chang," Feng Buhui saw this and was about to step forward to intervene.
"Buhui," Yue Jinghua shook her head.
In the world of rcenaries, reasoning is useless; fists are the truth.
The strength of the July rcenary Team is not known to the outside world, except by the Five Saints Branch.
Letting Luo Compass knock down the opponent’s arrogance could also help establish the reputation of the July rcenary Team.
Yang Chang was fiercely imposing, the broad axe in his hand was almost as tall as a person, swinging it left and right, any single strike could split a head open.
Luo Compass neither dodged nor avoided, his face turning red, and as Yang Chang swung the axe, he neither moved nor dodged, but yelled, "Co on, hit your grandpa’s forehead, if I so much as flinch, I, Luo Compass, will kowtow three tis to you. If you miss, kneel and bark like a dog for grandpa three tis."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chang beca even more furious, with the broad axe in his hand making a ripping noise as it started spinning.
In an instant, the shadow of the axe, like a wheel of fire and wind, chopped down towards the head of Luo Compass.
"Ah," but this cry was not from Luo Compass; when Yang Chang aid at Luo’s chubbily earnest head and chopped down, it felt as though the axe had struck a smooth stone.
The force in his wrist vanished as if absorbed by a sponge, followed by a strange force surging up from the handle of the axe.
The axe in Yang Chang’s hand unexpectedly lost its aim, folding eerily back.
The chilling blade of the axe flew past Yang Chang’s head.
Yang Chang felt a chill on his forehead, reaching to touch it and finding a cool, bare patch where his lush hair had been neatly shaved off.
Looking back at Luo Compass, he was unflinching, his mung bean-sized eyes brimming with smugness, he made a vulgar gesture towards Yang Chang, clearly full of disdain.
"Co on, bark like a dog for grandpa to hear," Luo Compass pursued his advantage, having gone through the tribulation of the Shura Sword Formation, his Divine Rune defense had greatly increased; not only could he withstand ordinary attacks, but he could even resist poison to a large extent.
The defensive power of Luo Compass could now only be described as freakish.
"You!" Yang Chang was shocked and frightened, while the other rcenaries from Fierce Fire rcenary Group were also filled with righteous indignation, surrounding Luo Compass.
The other mbers of the July rcenary Team, upon seeing this, were not to be outdone; as both sides were about to draw their crossbows, suddenly a stern and authoritative voice sounded: "Who dares to cause such a commotion here?"
