Couple cultivating immortality: My Taoist partner and I grew up through planting

Chapter 221 Xiangyang Mercenary Group

This group of monks were surrounded by four male cultivators of the Golden Core stage dressed as young men and two female cultivators of the Golden Core stage, and were escorted up to the private room on the second floor by two early Nascent Soul cultivators.

Looking at it this way, they no longer look like mercenaries, but more like children from aristocratic families.

There are not many ugly people in the world of cultivation. The men are handsome and the women are beautiful. They are dressed up in a fairy-like manner. The eyes of everyone in the lobby are always on those few people.

It wasn't until a few people disappeared that everyone looked away, including Han Xin.

At this time, most of the people eating in the lobby have left. There are more than thirty monks left in this group, and the location of the lobby is just right for them all.

The cultivation levels of these monks are very good. Except for the eight people who went upstairs, there are three male cultivators here who are in the Golden Core stage, and the rest are in the Foundation Establishment stage, and they are all in the middle stage or above.

Shi Yan sent a message and asked: "I don't know if these monks come from aristocratic families or are mercenaries. Fellow Daoist Wei, do you know?"

Shi Yan actually wanted to know if Wei Mingjing recognized those monks dressed as young men. After all, he and Jiang Yun also came from aristocratic families.

"I don't know." Wei Mingjing frowned.

"They should not be from the Southern Territory. They are so young and have the cultivation level of Jindan. If they are children of aristocratic families in the Southern Territory, I cannot possibly not know about them."

Not to mention the disciples of the aristocratic families in the Southern Territory, even the genius disciples of the sect knew it. Even if Fellow Daoist Shi was a casual cultivator, it stands to reason that he should also know.

But after Fellow Daoist Shi sent a message to ask him, he also knew the answer.

Unable to get the answer he wanted, Shi Yan regretted and returned his attention to the thirty or so monks in the lobby.

In the end, he learned from their conversation that they were mercenaries, and they were currently on an escort mission, and they were going to the Central Territory.

As for why a few monks at the Golden Core stage would agree to be escorted by a group of minor cultivators who were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, this is not a question that I have to struggle with.

After the meal, Shi Yan did not write any ink and directly sent a message to one of the male cultivators at the Golden Core stage.

Asked if he would still accept escort missions.

As soon as Tang Chen swallowed a mouthful of soup, a strange voice came to his ears. He raised his head and looked around, trying to see who the owner of the voice was.

"left."

Tang Chen turned around and looked at Shi Yan.

The corners of Shi Yan's mouth raised slightly, "Senior."

Tang Chen's eyes flickered over Han Xin and the others, and finally fell on Shi Yan.

"You are also going to the Central Territory?"

"Yes, senior, I wonder if your team can still accept the escort mission." Shi Yan asked again.

"Take that, one hundred high-grade spiritual stones per person." These people have established foundations, so such escorts will cause less trouble to the team.

"Deal, when can we leave?"

"Gather at the North City Gate early the day after tomorrow, and pay part of the deposit first then."

Shi Yan nodded, "Senior, which mercenary group are you from?"

Tang Chen saw Shi Yan's little thoughts at a glance and said it clearly, "Little guy, we are the Xiangyang mercenary group. Don't worry, our mercenary group will never bully customers, let alone do anything to hurt Xiangyang." The matter of the mercenary group’s signature.”

Shi Yan showed an embarrassed smile.

He was also helpless. He really knew nothing about everything in Chaos City. He didn't know whether the character of this mercenary group was worthy of his trust. He didn't want to step out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth again.

It is still necessary to find out more clearly. After returning to the inn, he went to inquire about the deeds of the Xiangyang Mercenary Group.

"Thank you, senior, for informing me. The juniors will take their leave now."

Shi Yan nodded towards the other party, then stood up and left his seat.

When Han Xin and others saw him standing up, they also stood up.

Tang Chen withdrew his gaze when they stood up.

After Shi Yan and others left the restaurant, Cheng Fengnan, who was sitting next to Tang Chen, asked, "Achen, what is that little guy looking for you for?"

As Tang Chen's best brother, how could he not notice the strangeness of his good brother just now? Not only him, but also many other team members around him noticed it, but seeing that they kept looking at each other, no one made a sound to interrupt their communication.

"A few little guys who want to go to the Central Territory asked us when we would set out and asked us to escort them to the Central Territory."

This is not something that needs to be concealed. If you tell it sooner or later, the team members will know it.

The mercenaries around him all laughed after hearing this. It seemed that they were going to have another extra income.

This time Xiang Yang mainly escorted the young masters and ladies upstairs. The reward they gave must not only be one hundred high-grade spiritual stones per person, but five hundred per person. You must know that there are two members of Xiang Yang's mercenary group beside them. The baby is escorted by the true king.

People like Shi Yan and others who just make extra money on the side will protect them, but if it really comes to a life-threatening moment, they will still run for their own lives when they should.

"Haha. Judging from their cultivation, they should go to Dragon City to participate in the Four Arts Competition. If they are destined, they may continue to hire our Xiangyang mercenary group to escort them when they come back."

"Then on the way to escort, everyone should try to build a good relationship with them. Seeing that your cultivation levels are similar, you will definitely be able to talk to them." Tang Chen teased the brothers with a smile.

"That's not necessarily true. Our qualifications are not as good as theirs."

Many talented people with good qualifications are very arrogant. They have no worries about life and are supported by their families and sects. Their goal is to ascend.

It's not like their mercenaries, who are struggling for their livelihood all day long, and every day they can survive is a day.

Geniuses don't bother to deal with mediocre mercenaries like them.

Tang Chen stopped talking. He was a hundred years old, and he was considered a genius in the eyes of these brothers.

Han Xin and others separated after returning to the inn. Shi Yan stopped when passing by the innkeeper.

You Kui, who was lying on the counter and taking a nap, felt a gaze falling on him for a long time. He opened his eyes, slowly raised his head, saw Shi Yan, and smiled.

"Little guy, what do you want from me?"

Today's young people will not pay attention to old men like them if they have nothing to do.

Youkui looks about forty years old, but is actually over one hundred and twenty years old. Aren't people like Shi Yan who still look a little childish just a kid?
Shi Yan didn't know that the shopkeeper in front of him regarded him as a person who had no profit and could not afford to leave early. Of course, he was not wronged.

If he didn't want to ask the shopkeeper about something, it would be strange that he would take the time to talk to him.

"What's your name, shopkeeper?"

Shi Yan just didn't like talking to people he didn't know well. It wasn't that he was unsophisticated and wanted to ask for help. Of course he had to have the attitude of asking for help from others.

But that’s it.

"Old man, my surname is You."

Han Xin, who was walking in front, didn't hear the footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw A Yan standing at the counter talking to the shopkeeper. She walked towards them and heard the shopkeeper's introduction.
