Chapter 376: Flaunting Oneself
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There was another group following behind them. Beiting Huang and Chu Feng were both talking through soul transmissions, so they didn’t notice that the group in front of them had already stopped on a big rock by the side of the road to rest.
Seeing the two of them walk over, a young woman in the mercenary group who was wearing a mercenary regiment uniform and had her hair tied up with a yellow silk ribbon said in a strange tone, “Look at these two people. Their clothes aren’t too bad. I thought they were noble young masters. I didn’t expect them to be pretending to be rich. They don’t even have the money to hire an escort and even want to follow us.
“Young Miss, don’t you know that there are always many people in this world who like to pretend to be rich, but they’re actually extremely poor. Look at that dress. It might have been taken from a dead person. If you think such people can specially find a mercenary group like us to escort them through the Magical Beast Forest, won’t you be thinking too highly of them?”
Beside the young woman, a young man holding a heavy sword glanced sideways at Beiting Huang and the others. The other members of the mercenary group behind him also looked at Beiting Huang and her cousin with extreme disdain, as if the two of them had taken advantage of them.
However, these people were not to be blamed. After all, Beiting Huang had followed this powerful team for three days. Their powerful mercenary group, which was ranked second on the continent, had been hired by others with real money. It was indeed unethical for the two of them to take advantage of others.
However, weren’t these people being too harsh with their words?
Beiting Huang looked at the clothes on her body and then looked at Chu Feng. Their clothes were taken from dead people? It was true that they didn’t have much money on hand, but it shouldn’t be to the extent of making people look down on them, right?
“Hehe, I really want to see. If a group of magical beasts suddenly comes, will these two people run away like rats and kneel down to ask us for help!” In the mercenary group, a person with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks said angrily.
“Hmph, ignore them. They didn’t even pay us any protection fee. If Blackwater’s compassion is overflowing, what will we eat and drink? I despise such people the most!” The young woman that acted like an Eldest Miss looked at Beiting Huang with deep disdain. She leaned against the tree trunk and closed her eyes. “The two of you can pay us a protection fee and we’ll allow you to follow behind our team for protection. Otherwise, stay far away from our team and don’t follow us. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude!”
What? Beiting Huang was stunned. Someone was actually asking her for protection fees. Looking at this team, there were only four Class 3 professionals, and the rest were all Class 2 professionals. Such a weak team actually wanted to ask her for protection fees.
This was the first time Beiting Huang had seen such a ridiculous thing.
“Cousin, this is interesting. If I had known that the people outside were so interesting, why would I still stay in the Soul Breaking Mountain Range? I should have come out earlier!” Beiting Huang turned her head and smiled at Chu Feng.
“Silly, how is this interesting? This is a group of retards. You can play with them, but I won’t allow it!” Chu Feng put his arm around Beiting Huang’s shoulder. His cold and indifferent eyes gently glanced at the other party like an arrow.
“Who are you calling retarded? Do you want to die?” The man with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks raised the saber in his hand and was about to charge towards Chu Feng. He actually dared to call them retarded. He wanted to properly teach these two pretty boys that talk was cheap..
