He watched the Second Commander leave.
Chu Feng did not delay.
He summoned Yu, Liu Xian’er, and the others.
After a while, everyone arrived and was told about the military mission.
Then, he asked, “Is there anyone who doesn’t want to go? Our team doesn’t force people. If you feel that it’s too dangerous, those who don’t want to go can stay in the Great Emperor City. I still have this bit of face.”
Chu Feng knew Yu and the others. There was definitely no fear.
However, Chu Feng did not understand the five Eighth-Turn Heaven Martial Realm experts that he had pulled in at the last minute.
Anyway, he did not lack combat power now. If they did not want to go, so be it.
He looked around at everyone. No one spoke.
Chu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
“Very good! Get ready and set off immediately! The Spirit Army hasn’t attacked the city tonight. It should be safe outside now.”
Dongfang Hu seemed excited.
“I can finally go out for a walk. I’m suffocating here!”
Yu remained lazy.
“The reward is not bad. Whether I can become a top-notch quasi-god will probably depend on this wave.”
Among the four first-grade soldiers, Lone Wolf was as silent as ever. However, there was no fear in his expression.
On the other hand, Mo Tianji remained silent.
With just the strength of the Seventh-Turn Heaven Martial Realm, he did not have any achievements. To be honest, Chu Feng had almost forgotten about this person.
He really did not know how the Great Emperor City had made an exception and awarded this guy a first-rank sergeant.
He only knew divination and looked like a fraud. No matter how one looked at him, he did not live up to his name!
Even at this moment, Mo Tianji was still fiddling with the few wooden sticks in his hand, as if he did not hear everyone’s conversation.
Chu Feng could not be bothered with him.
The next moment, a wooden stick in Mo Tianji’s hand suddenly broke. The light cracking sound attracted everyone’s attention.
Chu Feng pursed his lips and said speechlessly.
“Don’t tell me this is a great omen and that we won’t be able to return alive.”
Mo Tianji smiled awkwardly.
“No, no. It’s just that I’m not good at techniques and accidentally broke it…”
Everyone was rendered speechless.
Good lord!
How dare you say that!
Mo Tianji grinned.
“The means of divination are like the stars in the sky. Six Rens, Six Yaos, Qimen Dunjia, Taiyi, Plum Blossom Yi Numbers… There are too many of them. I’ve only just entered the door. It’s normal for me to be a little unfamiliar.”
“However, I really took the time to divine just now!”
“The divination shows that although this trip is filled with danger and difficulties, as long as we are led by Captain Chu Feng, we will definitely be able to turn misfortune into fortune!”
Chu Feng was speechless.
To be honest, he could not tell if this was really a divination or if it was purely Mo Tianji taking the opportunity to flatter him!
Why did it sound so unreliable?
However, using the divination technique to flatter him was an excellent way.
At the very least, it would not be annoying!
Everyone would rather believe such a mysterious thing than not.
He could not be bothered with the smiling Mo Tianji.
Chu Feng turned his gaze to Liu Xian’er and the others.
He suddenly exclaimed softly, “Hmm? None of you has advanced to the Spiritual Abode yet?”
“Is a fifth-grade Spiritual Abode not enough? If it’s not enough, you should have told me. But no matter what, there shouldn’t be no breakthrough, right?”
Chu Feng was puzzled.
However, what greeted them was Liu Xian’er and the others rolling their eyes.
“What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?”
Liu Xian’er snorted angrily.
“Do you think everyone is like you? Devouring a Spiritual Abode is like drinking water.”
“It’s only been half a day, and it’s a fifth-grade Spiritual Abode. How can a group of people like us who don’t even have a Spiritual Abode devour it all…”
Chu Feng came to a sudden realization.
He had forgotten that they had to devour it bit by bit.
Unlike him, who had a perfect divine body and was not at risk of exploding, he would naturally be as violent as possible.
Even a seventh-grade Spiritual Abode would not be able to last more than fifteen minutes with Chu Feng.
Alright, people were different after all…
Chu Feng shrugged and gave the crowd another fifteen minutes to prepare themselves.
Not long after, the four mercenary groups walked out of the City of the Great Emperor one after another.
As everyone’s figures became more and more blurry, on the city wall, the four commanders were all present.
The Seventh Commander said in a deep voice, “Can we really leave such an important and difficult mission to them?”
“If this precious time is wasted and they fail to obtain enough spiritual substances and the Spirit King wakes up, our Great Emperor City will probably be destroyed!”
The Second Commander glanced at the Seventh Commander.
“Why don’t you go?”
He stretched lazily again.
“If you doubt someone, don’t give them a task. If you give them a task, don’t doubt them. I don’t know the others well, so I won’t comment. I think that little fellow Chu Feng can surprise me.”
Suddenly, the Third Commander interrupted in a low voice.
“Second Brother, do you trust such an outsider so much? Seventh Brother’s words make sense. If the army mission fails, we will never have a chance to turn things around…”
The Second Commander turned around and glanced at the Third Commander.
“Third Brother, how many times must I remind you that we relied on these outsiders to defend the City of the Great Emperor… twice!”
“I know that you have some grudges with Chu Feng, but it seems that other than the time you wanted to sell him, which resulted in his bad attitude towards you, he didn’t offend you at any other time, right?”
“Shouldn’t that Huangpu Ming under you be slapped? He actually dares to blame Chu Feng for killing too many enemies. If I were present, I would slap his mouth!”
The Second Commander glanced at the silent Third Commander.
“Don’t be as petty as before. Back then, Little Nine laughed at you a little. You actually remembered for tens of thousands of years until Little Nine died. You actually mentioned it when you were crying at his tomb! You’re really something!”
The Second Commander did not know what to say about the Third Commander’s temper.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, “How about this? Why don’t we make a bet?”
“Let’s bet on whether Chu Feng can surprise us and gather the necessary spiritual substances!”
“If you win, I’ll get Chu Feng to apologize to you! If I win… I won’t ask for anything from you. How about you owe Chu Feng a favor? As long as that kid’s request isn’t too excessive, you have to agree. How about that?”
The Fifth Commander suddenly grinned and fanned the flames.
“Tsk tsk, Second Brother, Chu Feng has a terrible temper and loves his face. How can he be willing to apologize?”
The Second Commander sneered.
“Hehe, you still don’t understand that guy!”
“I know that kid too well. If he can make a divine-grade expert owe him a favor, he can apologize in front of everyone for three days and three nights without hesitation!”
The Second Commander dared to say so confidently!
He had truly seen through Chu Feng!
Of course, if Chu Feng were present, he would probably not say anything.
The benefits had already come knocking on his door. How could he not accept them?!
When had I, Chu Feng, ever disappointed anyone?
Ha! Who are you looking down on!
