“What do we want? You should ask yourself what you’ve done first. Last night, you got drunk in Shangyue Inn, killed a mercenary solider and injured a number of buddies of Greedy Wolf. You are well aware that no fight is allowed in the City of Mercenaries but still broke the rule. Chief Song has ordered us to detain you.” The mercenary soldiers showed a fierce look in their eyes.
There was no government or guarding troops in the City of Mercenaries. In this case, the Alliance of Mercenaries was the only law enforcer.
The City forbade fighting and those who disobeyed the rule would be detained or punished according to the seriousness of their offenses.
Lan Cai’er had always known about this.
“I admit having hurt others, but I did it for a certain reason. The members of Greedy Wolf offended me first and intended to grab my spiritual artifact. The inn owner, the waiter and Captain Dao of Drinking Blood have all witnessed what happened. You can surely ask them about it. If you dare to detain me without figuring out who is wrong, I will never go with you.” Lan Cai’er was quite annoyed about such nonsense.
She had not even settled a score with those people but they claimed to be the victims first.
“It is not up to you. You must go with us. If you are innocent, the chief will surely do you justice.” The law enforcing soldier then quickly took out the shackles and was about to arrest Lan Cai’er.
“Stop! How dare you touch her?” Yan Jiu snorted.
In an instant, the shackles in the hands of the enforcer were taken away.
With a clang, the shackles were twisted into a piece of scrap metal.
“Want to detain the member of our Disha? I’m afraid you cannot. She can go with you, but not with shackles.” Wu Chong and Yan Jiu winked at each other.
Since Lan Cai’er and Dao Ge were involved in the affair, they needed to visit the Alliance of Mercenaries. Moreover, they could grasp the opportunity to find out the whereabouts of Ye Lingyue and Bo Qing.
Faced with the imposing manner of Disha, the law enforcing soldier was a bag of nerves. He had to return with the three of them altogether.
The Alliance lost its usual hustle and bustle today.
Song Jingyun and her father Song Zhao were both present.
On the stretchers were several mercenary soldiers wrapped in gauze. They kept groaning with pain and one of them was no other than the vice leader of Greedy Wolf.
There was also a corpse torn into two halves.
All those people were the members of Greedy Wolf.
Present were also 70 to 80 soldiers from the Greedy Wolf. Everyone was flushing with anger.
The Greedy Wolf was a well-established mercenary legion and its leader was always on good terms with Chief Song.
“Chief Song, please do us justice today. That woman boasts of her identity as the member of Disha. She not only made trouble while getting drunk but also grabbed our hard-won earth grade spiritual artifact. We Greedy Wolf can never bear such a disgrace!” Jiao Chong shouted angrily.
“Lao Jiao, calm down first. I’ve already ordered my men to detain the trouble-making female soldier. If you’ve told the truth, I swear on my head that the trouble maker will pay the due price, no matter whether he or she is from Disha or other groups.” Song Zhao had already made an inquiry and learned that the female soldier was merely a green hand who had just settled in the City of Mercenaries.
“Dear, could you tell me something about Lan Lan?” Song Zhao was uncertain and asked Song Jingyun for more details.
“She is just an ordinary female soldier with a bad temper. Dad, if that woman is really to blame, could you please show some mercy? After all, she has something to do with Dao Ge.” Song Jingyun said softly.
“Ge’er?” Song Zhao was somewhat surprised to hear that. His daughter had pined away in recent days and her words seemed to imply something. Instantly, Song Zhao understood what she meant.
He humphed and had a poorer impression of Lan Cai’er even before meeting her.
Song Zhao secretly made up his mind. It turned out the female soldier named Lan Lan was a nuisance that must be got rid of.
After a while, several mercenary soldiers came in with Lan Cai’er.
But what Song Zhao and Song Jingyun did not expect was that the comers also included the two captains of Disha.
Song Zhao got nervous right away.
Within the Alliance of Mercenaries, most people only knew that the two captains of Disha had no match in terms of seniority. But few knew that their group was already a legend in the City many years ago. When they fought together, almost no one was able to defeat them. Their joint power was equal to that of a super strong mercenary legion.
When such two people were present, today’s affair would be hard to deal with.
“Chief Song, long time no see!” Yan Jiu smiled insincerely and glanced at the soldiers of Greedy Wolf lying on the ground.
‘Gee! Who did all this? Why not kill them all?’
If he was faced with such a gang, none of them would remain alive.
“Captains, long time no see! Your cultivation power has advanced greatly now.” Chief Song already broke out in a cold sweat.
He was already in the fifth realm of reincarnation but even he could not figure out the real level of their cultivation power. Even though they just stood there and did nothing, their imposing manner could easily awe Chief Song.
“Chief, you needn’t treat them so politely. Di, Sha, listen! Your female soldier killed and injured my men last night and also took away their spiritual artifact. For the sake of you two, I can let it go as long as she returns the artifact and kills herself.” The leader of the Greedy Wolf Jiao Chong showed a starkly different attitude. He strode to Wu Chong and Yan Jiu arrogantly.
He heard about Disha long ago. Earlier, he was somewhat worried but now the meeting with Wu Chong and Yan Jiu completely dispelled his worries. They were just two young soldiers. Moreover, they were not surrounded by Yuan energy and seemed to be in an even lower cultivation level than him.
Thinking of this, Jiao Chong only brazened it out.
“Which brute is abusing others shamelessly? You say Lan Lan took away your spiritual artifact and beat your men? Why did she fight with five men all alone? Even if she truly fought with them, you can only blame yourselves for being too useless. In the world of mercenaries, only the strongest will survive. Even five men could not defeat a young girl? A bunch of losers! Who gives you the nerve to ask for justice? If others know about it, what a shame!” Yan Jiu cast a disdainful glance and rebuked the Greedy Wolf eloquently while making eyes at his beloved girl.
Lan Cai’er blushed slightly, feeling somehow that Yan Jiu’s sarcastic words today seemed quite pleasing to the ear.
Men and women would be unreasonably biased to their beloved ones. Even if their lovers fed them poison, they would swallow it happily without any complaint.
Yan Jiu and Lan Cai’er were typically among those men and women.
