349: Seven Wolves (3)

Seven Wolves (3)

"F*ck! Don't tell me that the kid is Du Lang's illegitimate son!" One of the mercenary group's leaders wiped his face in surprise as he could not believe the fact in front of his eyes. Did the rumored cold and stern Du Lang run to welcome that kid with a smile on a face? Would the rain turn red too?1

It was terrifying to see a savage wolf turned into a gentle and kind man.

Even the members of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group could not accept the changes they saw in their leader, let alone those leaders.

As for the other six wolves, they were struck speechless as they stood rooted to the spot.

"Don't tell me that the temporary member leader mentioned is that little kid? Sleep Wolf, please tell me that this isn't real. My eyesight must have been obscured. That guy is not our leader!" Evil Wolf's mouth twitched as he stared at Du Lang's back profile with a dumbstruck expression. His body had even stiffened like a bamboo pole.

Sleep Wolf's expression was not much better, and he had not even recovered his voice from shock.

Ash Wolf coughed and asked, "Could the kid be a friend of the leader, and his presence is only a coincidence?" He attempted an excuse to diffuse the tense atmosphere.

"Yes, I think that's possible." Wild Wolf nodded in agreement. They could not imagine that the reinforcement that their leader had found was a thirteen-year-old kid!

Even if he was not a highly-skilled expert, he should at least be an adult!?

What was with that little kid?

Impossible, it was absolutely impossible!

Absolutely, i-m-p-o-s-s-i-b-l-e!

Just as the six of the other wolves struggled with the situation, Du Lang led Shen Yanxiao toward the other members of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group.

At that very moment, everyone's jaw dropped when they realized that the six other wolves were petrified.

Du Lang seemed as if he was not aware of his subordinates' twisted expressions and after he led Shen Yanxiao to the crowd, he said. "These are the members of my mercenary group, and even though our numbers aren't the most, our strength is definitely the top in the Black City. Therefore, you don't have to worry about your safety."

It was as if Du Lang was not aware of the twisted expressions on his subordinates' faces as he led Shen Yanxiao to the crowd. He said, "These are the members of my mercenary group. Even though we do not have the most members, we are definitely the strongest in the city. Therefore, you don't have to worry about your safety."

Shen Yanxiao looked at the eighty-plus members from the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group. They did look more well-trained than the members from the other groups. Furthermore, she thought there was a faint bloody smell on each of them.

That kind of scent was usually accumulated by those who had hunted magical beasts for a long time.

Du Lang did not exaggerate when he said that his group was more powerful than the other mercenary groups.

However…

At that time, the same spirited mercenaries had a strange expression on their faces.

Their faces twitched as they stared in the same direction as everyone did.

Du Lang's words were to convince Shen Yanxiao of his group's strength, but at the same time, it made the other members feel despair.

Oh gods, was that little kid the temporary member that Du Lang had mentioned?

Du Lang dragged Evil Wolf, who stood there foolishly and pointed at Shen Yanxiao. "You will be responsible for his safety throughout this mission. You are not to let him get hurt at all."

Evil Wolf did not even get a chance to recover his shock before his handsome face turned bitter when he heard about the task that Du Lang had assigned him. He looked at his leader as though he would weep, but there were no tears. He did not believe that his leader would assign an Advanced Knight like him to babysit a kid!
