The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss

Chapter 367: Xiu’s Promise (3)

Shen Yanxiao’s mood changed when the Vermillion Bird mentioned sage-level beasts. Coupled with her motive for the trip, Xiu knew why she worried.

“However, if it is really a sage-level Phoenix, I’m afraid that those mercenaries won’t be able to keep its attention. The Phoenix would kill them off in seconds.” Shen Yanxiao got even more worried. Even if she could not rely on the Vermillion Bird to fight the sage-level Phoenix, no one would be able to stop her if she had wanted to leave.

The problem was the people from the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group. Was she supposed to watch them die?

Xiu looked at the worried Shen Yanxiao and said, “If that’s what you want, I will protect them for you.”

Xiu would want to protect the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group?

Shen Yanxiao was quite surprised. If it were really a sage-level Phoenix, even the Vermillion Bird would not be able to deal with it, and yet Xiu said that he would protect Du Lang and the rest of the group?

That was a sage-level Phoenix, for goodness sake!

Even though Shen Yanxiao knew that Xiu was a mighty being, he had never revealed his strength to her. He had never used an ounce of his powers. Well, except for the times when he had to undo the seal. Shen Yanxiao could never grasp the limit of his power, but she was sure that he was powerful. He could even be stronger than anyone she had ever encountered. Furthermore, he was not at the peak of his strength yet.

However, it seemed like he dared to compete with a sage-level beast with the tiny bit of the strength that he had recovered!

Who was Xiu, exactly?!

“The situation is not as bad as you think it is. Even though the fire elements here are very strong, it is only slightly stronger than the Vermillion Bird. Therefore, there is no need for you to worry right now. I believe that you can still make your escape if you could not deal with it.” While he was with her, Xiu had seen the little devil enter and left the residences of the four great aristocratic families and even the state treasury. She had even snuck into the Saint Laurent Academy’s medicine storage room a few days back. Xiu knew that she would have the ability to make a hasty escape if she were to meet a stronger enemy.

Shen Yanxiao was not worried about herself, but Xiu’s words reassured her. After all, there were only a few things that could get her to stay, let alone magical beasts. She had only been worried about the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group. Even though those big and tall mercenaries seemed somewhat silly, they were good people.

Since she had Xiu’s promise, Shen Yanxiao knew that she did not have to worry.

“You’re right. Who cares if it is a mythical-level or a sage-level beast. As long as I want it, there’s nothing that I can’t get. Shen Yanxiao laughed with great confidence. After she had managed to clear things up with the two of them, she withdrew her consciousness.

The thousand-men team was already on their way to Mount Kuluo. As they got closer to the peak, the fire elements assaulted their body. Many weaker mercenaries were already drenched in sweat.

Ordinary mercenaries might not have noticed anything unusual with the fire elements, but those with advanced professions had already discerned the abnormalities.

Was the high-temperature from the fire elements caused by a mere eighth-ranked Phoenix?

Du Lang gathered his members with him, and he maintained his wait-and-see stance. He did not pay any attention to the other leaders.
