165 Just Call Me Old Brother!
“Sigh!” Huang Yuan waved his fan-like hand. “Little brother, you’re too polite. Why are you calling me Captain? I’m just a five-star Great Sword Master. Little brother already has the strength of a nine-star Great Spirit Master and can even cultivate elemental energy. Compared to my little brother, I’m simply too weak.”
This person’s personality was straightforward. Although his words were flattering and fawning on Beiting Huang, because of his honest attitude, Beiting Huang did not feel disgusted. On the contrary, she liked this straightforward personality. She smiled and said, “Strength is only temporary. If you’re complacent and greedy because you have strength, you’ll only die faster. On the contrary, if you keep working tirelessly, no one can predict how much you’ll achieve in the future. If Commander Huang Yuan wants to compete with Bei Ye in strength, no matter how powerful Bei Ye is, how can he be compared to the entire Black Water Mercenary Group?”
Huang Yuan was the leader of the Blackwater Mercenary Group. As a swordmaster, he established Blackwater and brought Blackwater from an unknown mercenary group to the top three on the continent. Beiting Huang, who was also a mercenary, admired such a person.
Seeing that Beiting Huang was young, had extraordinary strength, and was exceptionally humble and not arrogant at all, Huang Yuan could imagine Beiting Huang’s future achievements. Huang Yuan had seen countless young heroes like her, and the more he looked at her, the more he liked her. He couldn’t wait to say, “In that case, little brother, don’t call me the regiment commander. I’m a few years older than you. In the future, just call me big brother!”
!!
Not only was she a few years older than Beiting Huang, but Huang Yuan’s daughter, Huang Meng, was even older than Beiting Huang. Sitting at the side, Qin Yu almost wanted to cheer for Huang Yuan’s shamelessness. If he didn’t know Huang Yuan’s plan, he would have dragged Huang Yuan out.
However, it had to be said that although Huang Yuan’s intentions were obvious and he had his own selfish motives, he was a straightforward person. Even if he had ulterior motives, he would show it on his face. He did not hide it at all and did not disgust anyone.
Thinking back to the time when she was in dire straits in the Sunset Forest, Beiting Huang agreed without hesitation. “Okay, Elder Huang!”
This seniority seemed to be a little messy, but no one would mind. Huang Yuan was overjoyed. With a flip of his hand, he took out a black token with a water totem engraved on it from his interspatial ring and handed it to Beiting Huang. “Little brother, I made a bet with a bastard. I must invite you to be a guest elder of the Black Water Mercenary Group. Don’t worry, the position of a guest elder is actually an empty position. I don’t need you to do anything for the Black Water Mercenary Group. On the contrary, you can enjoy all the resources the Black Water Mercenary Group has in the entire continent. To put it bluntly, we just want to borrow your reputation. The only responsibility you have to fulfill is that when the Black Water Mercenary Group is facing a calamity, you can try your best to save us.”
“Guest Elder?” Beiting Huang roughly understood what was going on. It was just like how some universities in the 21st century hired famous people as honorary professors, and some corporations hired people with special talents or status as honorary consultants. She seemed to have just started living on this continent. Did she have the strength? She couldn’t help but ask, “Who do you usually hire as guest elders?”
If Qin Yu didn’t want the Black Water Mercenary Group to hire Beiting Huang as a guest elder, he wouldn’t have brought Huang Yuan to look for her. Bei Ye had indeed just started on this continent, but Qin Yu never doubted that with Bei Ye’s strength and temperament, he would be able to stand at the peak of this continent in the future. If he could become a guest elder of the Black Water Mercenary Group, he could enjoy the resources of the Black Water Mercenary Group on the continent at will. This would be beneficial to Beiting Huang when he traveled in the continent.
