Chapter 222 A Group of Beggars
"Brother, you look pale. I'm worried." Yan Li looked at the War King with a serious face.
"Don't worry, I still have to protect Li'er, nothing will happen." King Zhan smiled when he heard that.
"Brother, nothing can happen to you, otherwise I will ignore you." Yan Li said and looked into the eyes of the War King.
"Okay." The War King nodded.
"If I had known that pulling up the Chongtian Tree would consume so much energy, I would not have done it." Yan Li lowered her head and felt a little guilty.
"Li'er, I'm fine. I've fully recovered after taking the soul-replenishing elixir. Let's go out quickly." King Zhan said with a smile as he picked up Yan Li.
"Senior brother, open your mouth." Yan Li looked at the War King.
Upon hearing this, the War King opened his mouth, and Yan Li took out a pearl of life and asked him to swallow it.
War King: ...
Li'er was too worried about herself. She had already recovered, but she actually gave herself the Pearl of Life to drink.
This is a bit of a waste of natural resources.
After the War King took the Pearl of Life, Yan Li observed him carefully for a while, and only felt relieved after confirming that he was really fine.
"Senior Brother, let's go out." Yan Li looked at the War King with a smile.
"Okay." King Zhan nodded, and Yan Li took him out of the space.
King Xiao and the others outside the space all smiled knowingly when they saw Yan Li and the others coming back.
"Miss, Prince, the barbecue is ready, come and eat quickly." Luo Yi, who was grilling meat not far away, said to Yan Li and the others.
"Luo Yi, you really know me so well. I'm really hungry." Upon hearing this, Yan Li ran towards Luo Yi.
"No wonder Li'er likes Luo Yi. As long as Luo Yi is around, she will never be hungry." King Xiao smiled and said upon seeing this.
"Then why don't we just give Luo Yi to her?" King Zhan said as he looked in the direction of Yan Li and Luo Yi.
King Xiao: ...
Give the robe to Li'er?
Now that the chief guard of Prince Zhan’s Palace has been sent away, what will you do with Prince Zhan’s Palace in the future?
King Xiao said he was speechless.
As the sun set again, Yan Li and the others welcomed the arrival of darkness once again.
So everyone could only rest where they were.
Just when Yan Li and the others were about to return to their tent to rest, the sound of hurried footsteps was heard not far away.
Yan Li and the others looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
I saw a group of ragged people running towards this side.
"It's Deputy Captain Yun and the others, it's them." The group of people were as excited to see Yan Li and the others as if they had seen their biological parents.
Hearing their roar, Yan Li was speechless.
Could this group of beggars in front of me be members of the four major mercenary groups?
When they got closer, Yan Li and the others were sure that this group of ragged beggars were members of the four major mercenary groups.
"What's wrong with you?" Yun Qi looked at the excited people from the four mercenary groups in silence.
“Deputy Captain Yun, you all know how we have been getting through these days.” The chief elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group had a look of despair on his face.
"We have gone through so many hardships and finally found you." The chief elder of the Benhu Mercenary Group thought about what he had experienced in the past few days and suddenly felt like crying.
"That's right. After we got separated from you, we encountered wave after wave of attacks." The chief elder of the Mad Wolf Mercenary Group slumped to the ground.
"We almost escaped death." The chief elder of the Fast Leopard Mercenary Group still has lingering fears.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Seeing their expressions, Yan Li suddenly wanted to laugh.
When these people were with me before, they only thought of relying on others when they encountered difficulties.
Now he goes to fight in person, and he starts crying for his parents in just a few days.
There are people from the four major mercenary groups here, this is too lame.
"It's not that exaggerated. You'll know if you try it yourself." Yang Xu said as he tidied up his messy clothes.
But at this time, her clothes were torn and her face was dirty. No matter how she tidied herself up, she still looked like a beggar.
"That's right. It's really easy to talk without any pain. Do you think others are like you and have someone to protect them when they encounter danger?" Wei Yiyi's face was also full of anger.
"We fought our way out relying entirely on our own strength." Han Qingcheng's face was full of pride.
"We are not like someone who hides behind others when encountering danger." Xu Ying took a sip of water.
Yan Li: ...
These women are still standing here in an orderly manner?
This doesn't make sense. With their intelligence and abilities, they should have been killed long ago.
"After all, you are just jealous that I have someone to protect you. Let me tell you, there are some things that you can't get by being jealous. After all, what is destined to happen will eventually happen. You, don't have that destiny." Yan Li spread his hands after saying this.
Han Qingcheng and the other three were very angry this time, but they were also very tired at this moment.
He simply didn't have the extra energy to engage in a war of words with Yan Li.
"Deputy Captain Yun, didn't you all encounter any attacks?" The great elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group looked at Yun Qi curiously.
"Do you think it's possible?" Yun Qi rolled his eyes when he heard that.
"What about you guys?" The chief elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group looked depressed.
They were all under attack, but why were they all dressed neatly and in high spirits, while I and others were just the opposite?
"What do we have to be afraid of since we have Li'er here? Every time we encounter an attack, we can escape danger as long as Li'er is here." Yun Qi replied.
Four major mercenary groups: ...
Yang Xu and the others just mocked Yan Li for hiding behind others when in danger, and Yun Qi immediately said that they could escape danger entirely thanks to Yan Li.
A slap with great force hit Yang Xu and the other three on the face.
"That's right. As long as Li'er is fine, we have had a great time these days." Wu Hong also spoke with pride.
Four major mercenary groups: ...
Others were having a great time, but we were living in fear.
It's true that comparing yourself to others makes you feel pissed off!
“But you don’t have to regret getting separated from us. Although you have suffered some hardships, you have saved your own pockets. After all, there is a price to pay for seeking protection from others.” Seeing the expressions of the people from the four major mercenary groups, Yun Qi spoke to comfort them.
It would have been fine if Yun Qi hadn't spoken. As soon as he opened his mouth, the people from the four major mercenary groups, who originally only felt physical pain, now felt pain both physically and mentally.
Thinking about the gold coins they had spent before, their hearts were in a knot.
After Yan Li and the others finished speaking, they no longer paid attention to the people from the four major mercenary groups and went straight into their own tents to rest.
"Grand Elder, what do they mean by this? Are they just going to ignore us like this?" Xu Ying looked at the Grand Elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group with a confused face.
"What else? Should I send you medicine? Should I care for you? Should I serve you tea and water to show you warmth?" The great elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group said unhappily.
"We are all members of the Mercenary Empire. Now we are in trouble. Isn't it right for them to do this?" Xu Ying's face was full of anger.
“Miss, I think you are mistaken. They have no such obligation. Now that we are with them, we can finally sleep well. This is the most important thing.” The great elder of the Tenglong Mercenary Group looked helpless.
