Chapter 164: Chapter 0164 Ye Qingfeng Was Scorned
The exquisite and delicate face instantly made several hired mercenaries gulp.
"Cough cough! You silly girl, if your father doesn’t improve his martial arts cultivation, how can he protect the entire escort team, how can he support you all?"
The middle-aged man glared at the young girl, his old face slightly reddening.
"Su the Chief, rest assured, with us brothers here, those petty bandits along the way definitely won’t dare mess with the Dragon Power Escort Agency."
A tall, slender young man with a floral-engraved long sword at his waist, and a gentle face, said confidently.
At the same time, he puffed his chest slightly, revealing a silver emblem on his chest.
This also showed that the man had slain over a thousand monsters in the Monster Beast Desolate City.
"Hahaha! With Brother An here, I am naturally at ease. Who in the Southern Martial Artist Base hasn’t heard of your White Blade Sword!"
Su the Chief laughed heartily, and at the same time, flattered the leader of the hired mercenaries.
In fact, this White Blade Sword is just mediocre in the Martial Artist Base, but their Dragon Power Escort Agency simply can’t afford powerful mercenaries.
At this time, the escort agency needs the protection of White Blade Sword, so naturally they wouldn’t spare kind words.
"That’s right, Brother Yang is ranked among the strong among the younger generation in the Martial Artist Base..."
"In the future, the position of the first among the younger generation of the Martial Artist Base will likely fall into Brother Yang’s hands..."
"If I had a sister, I would definitely let her marry Brother Yang, such a sword dao genius..."
Echoing the escort leader, the mercenaries who came with An Yang also praised and flattered him.
"Su the Chief flatters me, but with me, An Yang, here, those foolish enough to attempt to rob the escort will surely become the departed souls beneath An’s sword."
The words of the crowd made An Yang feel a bit light-headed.
Especially under the gaze of the escort leader’s beautiful daughter.
As the convoy proceeded, the sky gradually darkened.
"It’s inconvenient to travel at night, let’s set up camp here."
With a wave of Su the Chief’s hand, the convoy came to a halt.
Not only is it inconvenient to travel at night, but it’s also easy to encounter robbers and demon beasts.
Therefore, escort agencies generally do not travel at night.
Dragon Power Escort Agency is well-experienced.
The convoy stopped by some sturdy trees.
The escort members began to move one by one.
Some pitched tents, some started fires, some prepared food—everything was in order.
Obviously, it wasn’t their first time doing this.
In no time, temporary shelters were set up.
Several campfires were also lit, illuminating the surroundings brightly.
"Little brother, our escort agency hasn’t prepared anything fancy to eat, so tonight you’ll have to make do."
Su the Chief also came over to invite Ye Qingfeng to have something to eat.
Previously, Ye Qingfeng had given Su the Chief several elixirs with strong medicinal power.
Su the Chief believed these elixirs could rival second-level biological potions.
These are worth millions, so Su the Chief naturally had to treat Ye Qingfeng well.
"Alright!"
Smelling the aroma of roasted fish, meat, and bread from the campfire, Ye Qingfeng did not refuse.
The consumption in the past few days was substantial; ordinary beast meat couldn’t provide much energy.
But at least it could fill his stomach and satisfy his taste buds.
Then, Ye Qingfeng followed the escort leader to the largest campfire.
This place was where the escort leader’s daughter, apprentices, and the hired An Yang and other mercenaries were.
"Master, why did you invite this guy over? It’s already generous enough that we gave him a ride. This guy doesn’t do anything and just consumes the escort agency’s food."
Seeing Ye Qingfeng approaching, the handsome young Qingtian was very displeased.
This guy had been lounging on the carriage all day, leisurely living without contributing anything to the escort agency.
"Shut up!"
The escort leader reprimanded Qingtian in a stern voice.
Then he apologized to Ye Qingfeng, saying, "Little brother, I’m sorry, my apprentice is too young and lacking in manners."
"It doesn’t matter."
Ye Qingfeng smiled and didn’t take it to heart.
Young ones at this age typically admire the strong.
Right now, he hadn’t contributed to the escort agency and was instead a burden to them.
Such naive young ones naturally wore their emotions on their sleeves.
After all, they were just passing through Ye Qingfeng’s life; there was no need to be too bothered.
Then he sat down, tore off half of a wild chicken, and took a bite.
However, Ye Qingfeng soon realized that there wasn’t much flavor.
He took out some seasonings and sprinkled them on.
Then roasted it a bit more.
Instantly, a fragrant aroma spread, and the chicken became golden and crispy, allowing Ye Qingfeng to savor it contentedly.
Had it not been for the Grave-digging Dragon absorbing inside the Devouring Sky Pearl due to consuming the Flame Demon Eagle’s spirit grass and fruit, it would surely have feasted.
"I didn’t expect little brother to have this skill."
Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s simple actions turn the merely filling roasted meat into a delicacy, the escort leader couldn’t help but praise.
"Wow! It smells so good! Brother Chen, can you help me roast some as well?"
Earlier, when Ye Qingfeng introduced himself to them, he casually made up a name, taking on the alias Chen Jiang.
Now, the escort leader’s daughter Su Jing gazed at the golden, oily chicken in Ye Qingfeng’s hand with bright eyes.
She was obviously a foodie as well.
"No problem."
Ye Qingfeng smiled lightly, reaching out to take the wild rabbit Su Jing was roasting.
At the moment of touch, because Su Jing’s hand extended a bit too far,
when Ye Qingfeng went to grab the stick with the rabbit, he accidentally touched Su Jing’s soft, smooth fingers.
This accidental motion made Su Jing’s delicate face blush instantly.
In the firelight, she looked even more beautiful.
"Unskilled, no wonder he relies on our escort agency, probably not even a high-level warrior."
Qingtian seemed very displeased with Ye Qingfeng drawing everyone’s attention.
Especially since he considered cooking skills as trivial tricks unworthy of martial artists.
"Senior sister, don’t get too close to such a person, or it might affect your martial arts path."
Saying this, he pulled his senior sister Su Jing closer to him and away from Ye Qingfeng.
"Sorry, Brother Chen, Qingtian actually has a kind heart, just don’t know what’s gotten into him today..."
Feeling embarrassed about her junior brother’s repeated targeting of Ye Qingfeng, Su Jing apologized.
"It’s okay, I indeed brought trouble by joining your escort agency."
Ye Qingfeng smiled, not taking the words of the thirteen or fourteen-year-old to heart.
It felt like a breeze.
It seemed that after experiencing the beast tide, his mindset had become much more open.
"Senior sister, for someone whose path in martial arts has already stopped, we shouldn’t bother with him... There won’t be any interaction in the future either."
Qingtian gave Ye Qingfeng another dissatisfied glare.
