Chapter 681 Don’t Mess with Me (1)
“I don’t understand,” said Yun Feng calmly. Meatball lowered its head in frustration. Yun Feng smiled helplessly. It would be great if Little Fire was here. At least, it could understand a little. Yun Feng thought for a moment. Since she couldn’t understand what Meatball said, she might as well ask it.
“Is there something in my body?” Yun Feng asked tentatively. Meatball immediately nodded like a rattle. Yun Feng couldn’t help but become serious when she saw that. “You know what it is.”
Meatball blinked its big innocent eyes and finally shook its head. Yun Feng lifted Meatball’s chubby body in front of her eyes with one hand. “Meatball, don’t lie to me.”
Meatball shook its head again and patted the back of Yun Feng’s hand with its tail. “Nana, Nana, Nana…” It whispered. Yun Feng frowned. No, she couldn’t understand it at all!
“What’s wrong?” asked Yaoyao worriedly. Yun Feng shook her head and caressed Yaoyao’s long, smooth hair. “I’m fine. I’m fine.” Yaoyao looked at Meatball in disbelief. Meatball jumped back to Yun Feng’s shoulder and didn’t say anything else. There was indeed something inside her body. What those thick chains could lock must be something extraordinary. Was it a human or… a Magic Beast? There was actually such a world hidden inside her body. What exactly…
No matter what that thing was, whether it was a person or something else, it shouldn’t hurt her. She didn’t care about it for the time being. She would have a chance to figure it out in the future! Yun Feng put this question aside. The door had already been opened slowly. Qu Lanyi leaned against the door with a smile. “Did you sleep well, Fengfeng?”
Yun Feng suddenly remembered what the two of them said last night. She couldn’t help but blush again. Qu Lanyi rubbed her forehead. “It seems that you slept well, but I couldn’t sleep.” There were indeed traces of blood in his beautiful eyes. Yun Feng got up. “Why couldn’t you sleep?”
Qu Lanyi’s lips curled up. “It’s all because of you. You made me unable to sleep.”
Yun Feng roared angrily, “It’s none of my business! You pervert!”
Qu Lanyi burst into laughter happily. Yun Feng blushed again. Yaoyao watched the interaction between the two of them in confusion. In the end, she looked at Qu Lanyi. “You’re bullying Xiao Feng.” Yaoyao slowly opened her mouth and showed her sharp teeth. Her brutal nature was immediately exposed. She looked at Qu Lanyi with hostility in her blue eyes!
“He’s just kidding.” Yun Feng held Yaoyao in her arms comfortingly. Yaoyao finally felt better and her expression also eased a lot. Qu Lanyi chuckled softly on the side. “I don’t care even if Yaoyao is angry. You look really beautiful when you blush.”
Yun Feng didn’t say anything else, because her cheeks were red again. At this moment, a voice came from outside. “It seems that both of you woke up very early.” Yun Feng looked over. It was Muqing. Thinking of the scene she saw last night, Yun Feng felt a bit uncomfortable.
“If you have something to ask, come to the study. Nobody will disturb you there.” Muqing turned around and left after saying that. The slightly awkward look on Yun Feng’s face was finally relieved. Qu Lanyi asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong? You look very…”
“Nothing. Let’s go to the study.” Yun Feng interrupted Qu Lanyi and went to the study. Qu Lanyi followed her and still felt that there was something wrong with Yun Feng. The two of them walked to the study. Muqing was already waiting inside. After they came in, the door was instantly closed.
“Have a seat.” Muqing waved her hand and Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi sat down. Yun Feng tried not to look at Muqing. It was indeed too awkward last night. Muqing also noticed Yun Feng’s discomfort. “What’s wrong, Yun Feng?”
Yun Feng raised the corners of her mouth and met Muqing’s puzzled gaze. If he knew that she saw that scene, she didn’t know what he would think. She threw away the uneasiness in her mind. Yun Feng looked serious. Before Yun Feng could say anything, Muqing had already replied, “I know what you want to know. Let me tell you the general idea first. If there’s anything else you want to know, you can ask later.”
Yun Feng nodded. Muqing crossed his hands in front of him and said casually, “The Mercenary Union has its own branches in the four empires on the East Continent. Each branch has more than a hundred mercenary groups. The mercenary groups in the four empires are all active in their own areas and rarely interact. However, in this year, the rapid rise of a mercenary group gradually broke this situation.” Muqing glanced at Yun Feng. “That’s right, the Red Maple Mercenary Team. The Red Maple Mercenary Team in this year has directly risen to the level-5 mercenary groups. Also… the area they’re active in isn’t just the Fengyun Empire.”
Muqing put one leg on the other. “Of course, this is a good thing. The four empires can’t be completely isolated from each other. Besides, mercenary groups have a high degree of freedom to begin with. There’s no rule that they couldn’t travel across countries.”
“The rapid rise of the Red Maple Mercenary Team was inevitable. That was something we expected. Gradually, the missions that the Red Maple Mercenary Team took on became more and more difficult. They completed them perfectly and became more and more famous. In the end, even the royal families of other countries asked the Red Maple Mercenary Team for help. Gradually, the area of activity of the Red Maple Mercenary Team expanded. It can be said that the four empires all entrusted the Red Maple Mercenary Team with missions. None of the mercenary groups had such a scale or such a high honor.”
Yun Feng didn’t feel complacent. Instead, she frowned slightly and her black eyes were deep. “No mercenary group has so many potential enemies.”
Muqing chuckled. “You’ve seen it very clearly. The more powerful the Red Maple Mercenary Team is and the more famous they become, the more people will see them as a thorn in their side. After all, it’s not a good thing to be ahead of others in everything, especially when you steal other people’s business.”
Yun Feng sneered. Muqing chuckled. “Of course, the Red Maple Mercenary Team can take over as many things as they want, but the other mercenary groups have been suppressed or even insulted. Of course, I know that the Red Maple Mercenary Team didn’t intend to do that. Take Ovey for example. Ever since the Red Maple Mercenary Team became famous, the Ovey Mercenary Union seemed to have a lot of free time. Some of the missions that were originally assigned to the Ovey Mercenary Union were all taken over by the Red Maple Mercenary Team. It’s a good thing for them to develop themselves, but they also have to consider other people’s feelings. Don’t you agree?” Muqing raised his brows and looked at Yun Feng. Yun Feng chuckled. “Are you blaming the Red Maple Mercenary Team for stealing the business that should belong to you?”
