The Good For Nothing Seventh Young Lady's

Chapter 325: Invitation of the Cave Wolves Pay Army Corps

There, Du Lang was still discussing the contents of the task with his men. Immediately, Du Lang discovered that Shen Yanxiao, who should have already left, was standing at the side at this moment while looking at them seriously.

Du Lang was slightly surprised for a moment. He immediately understood that the things he and his men were talking about had been heard by this guest.

Du Lang thought of his own speculation before, and he was a bit hesitant.

"This guest, you seem to be very interested in Phoenix?" Du Lang looked at Shen Yanxiao seriously and asked to feel her.

But the moment Du Lang opened his mouth, the young man beside was shocked as his jaw dropped to the ground.

Guest.... guest? ! !

Could it be that the person who bought the mid-level magical beast item was this little brat before him?

That was three thousand gold coins full! This little devil doesn't look like a rich man from head to toe!

The young man quietly swallowed his saliva. Three thousand gold coins for the members of the mercenary corps were already considered a very rich sum.

Shen Yanxiao recovered from her daze and looked at Du Lang who suddenly questioned her, she did not react for a while.

Why did he suddenly ask her? Could it be that the task of a mercenary could not be said to others? Was Du Lang afraid that if this task was revealed, it would attract more mercenaries? Was he afraid of the other mercenary corps, their remuneration would be divided?

To alleviate the problem, Shen Yanxiao gave a rare explanation, “Don't worry Chief Du, I am not a mercenary, but I am a little curious about the Phoenix. After all, in the past few hundred years, not a single trace of the Phoenix could be seen in the Radiance Continent. ”

Du Lang laughed and said, “You are too sensitive, I just noticed from your appearance that you are very interested in Phoenix, you can ask me if you have any worries. The employer relinquished the task to a large group of mercenary corps, I did not hide anything. As the leader of the mercenaries, Du Lang understood Shen Yanxiao's worries.

Seeing that Du Lang did not seem to mind if he asked a little, Shen Yanxiao was also not being polite anymore, after all, he was still considered a guest of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps and asked for some meaningless words.

"Don't know if your goal this time is Feng, or Huang?" According to Xiu, the sex of the Phoenix in this world was the same as the one in his memory, Feng was male and Huang was female.

A Huang was born with a rank eight level, while a Feng level one rank higher, that was rank nine.

However, Shen Yanxiao did not expect once she asked a question, Du Lang would instantly freeze.

The young man at the side asked with a somewhat strange feeling, “Didn't we say it was Phoenix? Huang's? What is the difference between these two words?” [1]

The young man's murmur clearly also represented Du Lang's current reaction.

Shen Yanxiao was a little speechless. He did not think that this world's understanding of the Phoenix was actually lacking until this point. They could not even distinguish the difference between the two.

Du Lang seemed to think of something, after the young man finished speaking, he immediately asked, “I don't know about the Feng and Huang you are talking about. If you are willing to enlighten me, then I, the Leader of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corp promise that if you have a task for us in the future, we will give you a 10% discount%. All over the world, there were too few records about the Phoenix, and those few words could not form a clear picture in people's minds.

Before, Du Lang felt that this guest was not as simple as it looked on the surface, and when he asked such a question, Du Lang realized something with natural sharpness.

[1] ⁇ (Fenghuang): Or in other words phoenix. The word "phoenix" consists of ⁇ (Feng) and ⁇ (huang). Originally, the male phoenix was called Feng, while the female phoenix was called Huang. But currently, they only use the word “phoenix” or Fenghuang.

The guest in front of him seemed to have a good understanding of the Phoenix.

The young man foolishly looked at his leader as he consulted the little man who was not even tall enough to reach his chest, his eyes almost falling.

What's up with this situation?

Their domineering and mighty leader actually ran over to ask the little boy? And he even offered her a 10% discount%! It should be known that in the entire Black City, the people who could obtain such a lucrative bid from the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps could only be counted on two or three fingers.

Did their leader's brain have cramps today? He's really so generous?

The reason why Du Lang gave Shen Yanxiao a big discount, was of course because he had a plan. In his transaction with Shen Yanxiao, he knew that the other party's identity was clearly not as simple as the one he saw on the surface. With the previous speculations and coupled with Shen Yanxiao's god-like question, Du Lang subconsciously regarded Shen Yanxiao as a mysterious master who had used that secret method to change his size and appearance. In the face of such an existence, as the leader of the mercenary corps, naturally he wanted to pull her over to their side.

Of course, Du Lang was only half-confident about this conjecture. The rest would be determined after listening to Shen Yanxiao's explanation of the Phoenix.

If Shen Yanxiao really knew some secrets about the Phoenix that had long disappeared, then it was most likely that she was really just as she had thought. After all, there were only a few people in this world who had an understanding of this legendary magical beast.

Shen Yanxiao was a little surprised by Du Lang's generosity, but she did not reject his intention. After all, he also wanted to find the Phoenix's nest. If he could have a good relationship with the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps, perhaps they could let him go with them to the Phoenix's lair and help him obtain the Inflammation Grass.

But Shen Yanxiao was also very clear that the understanding of the Human Race about the Phoenix was extremely rare. If he told Du Lang everything Xiu had told him, it might be able to cause him unnecessary trouble. So he was very careful with his explanation, “My understanding of Phoenix is not much. I only know that Feng and Huang are each referring to the male Phoenix and the female Phoenix. Phoenix has a different gender and has a different name. Not everything is just called Phoenix (Fenghuang).” In the last analysis, Phoenix (Fenghuang) was just a generic term for this kind of magical beast. As in the previous world, almost everyone knew that the Phoenix (Fenghuang) was all female. They did not know that Feng was a male Phoenix and Huang was a female Phoenix.

Clearly, before they heard all that, they had no idea that Phoenix had that meaning.

Du Lang narrowed his eyes. He pondered for a moment before he suddenly walked over to Shen Yanxiao and said, “I don't know if you have any spare time, please, but I would like to invite you to join our Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps and participate in the Phoenix task. . But you can be sure that you do not need to participate in the fight. You just need to tell us some information about Phoenix at the right time.” Du Lang was now firmly convinced that this guest was not a thirteen year old child.

[TL Sky: Technically, he's not. So somehow you did it right.]

The information he had just passed on to them was not something that could be found easily even if they searched the entire Radiance Continent.

Such knowledge, how could a child know?

At Du Lang's invitation, the young man was completely shocked. He almost suspected that his own leader had been exchanged for someone else! He actually invited a little kid to join their team?

Also…

He just used a polite way to say, 'you'! [1]

Who did not know that the Head of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps had always been arrogant, no matter what identity the guest had, he still would not show this kind of courtesy.

But today, he actually used a polite way to call this little brat!

This world is full of mysteries!!!

There was no way their leader was so polite!

The young man's thoughts were currently in chaos.

Shen Yanxiao was surprised by Du Lang's invitation. He also noticed how Du Lang called out to him, and he did not fully understand what kind of earth-shattering act he was doing so Du Lang suddenly changed the way he called out to him. He had only said a little bit of information about Phoenix, so why did he become so polite?

"If you agree, then I will also pay you some money for it, and I will also arrange for people to protect your safety." Du Lang further raised the terms and benefits. As for the reason, other than speculating Shen Yanxiao's identity, it was also because this kind of mission was not a trivial matter.

According to his men, this mission needed to unite more than ten middle mercenary corps. The employer this time would give each mercenary a very high reward if they could complete his mission. And this reward could even surpass the total income of their Cave Wolf Mercenary Corps for six months. Moreover, the employer stated clearly that they only needed the heart of Phoenix and the other parts could be freely distributed among the mercenary corps.

And this included the rank eight magic core of the Phoenix!

The value of an eighth rank magic core was immeasurable. And as a legendary rare magical beast, every item from the Phoenix also had a high value.

This time, if this task was successful, then they would receive far more wealth than the one given by the previous employer.

After all, in the entire Black City, the strength of their Cave Wolves Mercenary corps was the most powerful. The other mercenary corps could not compete with them.

If they could also have someone who had a good understanding of the Phoenix to travel with them, then Du Lang would have greater certainty that they could complete this mission.

Moreover, according to his observation, the identity of this guest was not at all simple. So if they could pull it to their side, they would probably get an unexpected harvest.

For all these reasons, Du Lang made a seemingly astounding decision.

Although Shen Yanxiao did not know why Du Lang was so resolute to invite her in the mission of killing the Phoenix, she had to say that she was very happy with this invitation.

Inflammation Grass can be found in the Phoenix's nest. Opportunities like this are hard to come by and cannot be sought after.

It was just that the mission Du Lang received was clearly strange. The level of the Phoenix was definitely higher compared to the rank eight that had been mentioned in this mission.

What they had to deal with was most likely an adult Phoenix whose level was close to that of a Mythological Beast. Even with hundreds of people, he was afraid that it was still not enough to pull out the Phoenix teeth.

The Inflammation Grass was very tempting, but the ferocious beasts they had to face were extremely ferocious.

If others were faced with such a choice, then it was feared they would be extremely depressed. But Shen Yanxiao was not worried at all because in her hands, she still had a Mythological Beast, Vermillion Bird, who could fight with an adult Mythological Beast, Phoenix!

As long as they did not meet the reborn Phoenix, then with Vermilion Bird's abilities, he would not allow himself to tragically fall.

Du Lang also said that as long as he could provide information about the Phoenix, then he could stay by the side during the fight, and he could take advantage of that time to sneak into the Phoenix's nest and steal the Inflammation Grass.

[1] The character he used earlier was ⁇ (nin) which is a polite way of saying "you" as opposed to ⁇ (ni) an informal way of saying "you".
