CHAPTER 607: CHAPTER 476: FIGHTING OVER WOMEN

A mid-sized Mercenary Corps, wiped out overnight.

You must know, the Blood Drink Mercenary Team only has two members.

Facing hundreds with just two, no one knows how "Blood Drink" accomplished it, but since then, "Blood Drink" became famous in a single battle.

Even the Mercenary Alliance in Mercenary City wouldn’t dare to casually oppose "Blood Drink".

Seeing that dark and unclear Hei Yue dare to decisively refuse "Blood Drink’s" invitation, the female mercenaries present almost felt their teeth sour with anxiety, while the male mercenaries gave looks of sympathy.

Among "Blood Drink," Dao Ge, who was known for his generous nature, was already easy to get along with. Having angered him, these two ugly female mercenaries would most likely face grave danger this time.

Lan Cai’er hung her head; from the moment Dao Ge walked in, her body went cold, including the hand held by Ye Lingyue, which was just as chilly, like a fish.

Lan Cai’er knew that Ye Lingyue confronting "Blood Drink" was entirely because of her, her heart filled with bitterness, just about to persuade Ye Lingyue to let it be.

"What? Is it that there are no laws under the heavens anymore, only you get to pick people, and we aren’t allowed to choose our team? I don’t believe that apart from ’Blood Drink’, we can’t find another mercenary team," Ye Lingyue snorted, her gaze falling on the mercenaries around, who all lowered their heads.

She then looked at Little Li, who also had a face full of difficulty.

Ye Lingyue’s heart grew colder and colder.

"If that’s the case, the two of us would rather form our own..."

Before Ye Lingyue could finish her statement.

"If the two ladies are willing, our ’Emperor’s Slaughter Mercenary Team’ would like to invite you to join," a voice tinged with a bit of mockery came from within the crowd.

Dao Ge and Bo Qing slightly frowned, while the other mercenaries also turned to look.

Wow! Has the sun risen from the west today, someone actually dares to challenge "Blood Drink"?

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er breathed a sigh of relief and gratefully looked towards the newcomer.

Two young and tall men approached.

"Blood Drink’s" members were already eye-catching enough, but these two newcomers were not overshadowed in the least.

The speaker was a man exuding elegance from head to toe, dressed in white, his face carved like a sculpture, his dark eyes shrinking slightly when he saw Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er.

Although Yan Jiu had already seen the "reputation" of Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er from afar, being a man fond of beauty, he couldn’t help twitching the corner of his eye up close.

These two damned women, couldn’t they look a bit uglier?

Compared to Yan Jiu’s dazzling entrance, the man behind him seemed less striking in appearance. However, his tall and robust physique, eyes a mix between amber and dark gold, made him appear like a Leopard King lurking in the shadows.

Though understated, no one would doubt that he could take a life without anyone noticing.

The Xia Family’s Three Sisters were shocked, especially the eldest, Xia Meng, who was staring blankly at Wu Zhong. Unlike her sisters who liked handsome men, Xia Meng harbored a crush on Wu Zhong.

The man, though unsightly, radiated a domineering aura.

Recalling the days past when they were trapped, it was this same man before them who had slain multiple Spiritual Beasts with a single move.

Xia Meng remembered the day when the man pierced through the skull of an Eighth-stage Spiritual Beast with his spear; her eyes stuck to Wu Zhong, unwilling to shift away.

"Emperor’s Slaughter, it’s actually people from the Emperor’s Slaughter Mercenary Team. When did they start recruiting mercenaries? But only ’Emperor’s Slaughter’ would dare challenge ’Blood Drink’." Upon sighting these two men, other mercenaries were astonished, but they soon nodded in understanding.

Unlike the recently famous "Blood Drink", "Emperor’s Slaughter" is an old mercenary team, formed by "Emperor" and "Slaughter". It was said that already five or six years ago, "Emperor’s Slaughter" had become a legend in the Mercenary Alliance by completing a consecutive one hundred advanced missions, a record still documented in the annals of the Mercenary Alliance.

Yet, five years ago, "Emperor’s Slaughter" vanished overnight.

Everyone thought that both members of "Emperor’s Slaughter" had retired, but half a month ago, "Emperor’s Slaughter" reappeared. Many suspect their return is related to the Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo.

However, some are doubtful that this is the same "Emperor’s Slaughter" from before, because people remember that the original "Emperor" and "Slaughter" were exceptionally handsome young men, unlike the two they see now... especially this "Emperor" whose appearance is barely ordinary...

If the people have changed, whether their original strength remains is yet to be seen.

"Slaughter, what is the meaning of this? These two ugly women must join us, Blood Drink," Dao Ge was noticeably displeased.

"Little Li, when did the rules of the Mercenary Alliance start being dictated by ’Blood Drink’?" Yan Jiu scoffed, without even bothering to lift his eyelids.

Back when he and Wu Zhong were making their mark in the Mercenary World, these effeminate men probably didn’t even know where they were.

"Dao Ge, look, Lan Lan and Hei Yue are unwilling to join you. The Mercenary Alliance has rules, and female mercenaries have the right to choose first." To be fair, Little Li was also unwilling for Hei Yue and Lan Lan to join "Blood Drink". The people from "Blood Drink" were not exactly the best bunch.

Dao Ge, naturally flirtatious, cold-blooded, and brutal, and Hei Yue and Lan Lan were just nice girls from the countryside. Though they were not good looking, apart from their appearances, they had good figures and temperaments. If they fell into these men’s hands, it would be like lambs to the slaughter.

"Rules? Spare me that talk; you bring up rules at this time? Then we’ll follow the rules: whoever is stronger takes them away." Dao Ge clenched his fist, giving a wicked glance at the two from "Emperor’s Slaughter."

Old mercenary team, huh?

They know they are "old" now; it’s time they learn the lesson that new waves in the Yangtze River drive the old waves forward, and the old waves die on the beach.

"Hehe, Dao Ge, have you thought this through? Maybe you should look back first, see clearly, and then make your decision," Yan Jiu said, elegantly waving his fan.

"Dao Ge, you’ve become a mercenary, why not tell me, if you need people, I could join." A woman walked in, with a beautiful face and graceful figure.

This person was none other than Dao Ge’s fiancée, Song Jingyun, the Sect Leader of Shui Yue Sect.

Dao Ge’s mouth twitched, and the previous frivolous color on his face instantly vanished.

Upon Song Jingyun’s arrival, Ye Lingyue distinctly felt Lan Cai’er’s hand stiffen.
