With the help of Platinum Steps, it only took them three days to leave the depths of the desert and enter the outskirts of the desert.

In these three days, Xiao Tian Feng would occasionally tease the young girl in his embrace. Xiao Bai Mei, a dignified Profound King expert, was one of the three captains of the Nether Moon squad. Occasionally, he would give a soft reply and spend most of his time quietly listening to Little Tian Feng's rambling.

After a day of running through the outer regions of the desert, Little Tian Feng finally saw the figure of a person. A group of twenty plus mercenary company trekked through the yellow sand, and from the looks of their ragged clothing, they were in a bad mood.

Xiao Tian Feng's eyes lit up as he chuckled, "We're not far from the territory of the riots anyways, so we're not in a rush. Look, there's a group of mercenaries ahead, it'll be better if we join in."

Bai Mei came back to her senses when she heard Little Tian Feng's words. Disappointment flashed past her beautiful eyes as she looked at the group of figures in front of her.

She enjoyed being alone with the young master, especially when she was addicted to the feeling of his heartbeat. Walking with the mercenaries also meant that she could no longer greedily breathe the scent of these ripples. Although she was slightly unwilling, she still nodded her head.

"..."

"Captain, tell me, we were really unlucky. We didn't even manage to hunt a few Xuan Cores, and we even lost two brothers." A burly man complained beside a lean man.

The skinny man shook his head with a bitter smile. "Big Mountain, there's nothing we can do about it. The amount we obtain depends on our luck. The mercenary profession is a dangerous one to begin with, so I'll pay for it myself." As the captain of the Fierce Lion Mercenary Company, Shaukian was a rare person. Not only did he not earn anything, he even received a pension of his own.

"Captain, that's not what I meant." Shaking his hand impatiently, Mountain got a few steps closer to the group leader and said in a low voice, "It's because there are many people complaining in the mercenary group. Also, vice-captain Ge Quan has been instigating people in the group for the past few days. I'm afraid he wants to bring some people away."

"Surely not?" Xiao Keen frowned. However, he clearly knew in his heart that Ge Quan was not a loyal person. If it were not for the fact that he was only at the middle stage of the Da Xuan realm, he would not have let him live.

"How could I not? Even Little Mo could tell." Big Mountain was afraid that the leader would not believe him, so he hurriedly said.

"Forget it, everyone has their own aspirations." Maybe I am not fit to be this Guild Leader. " Smiling self-deprecatingly, Shao Keane shook his head. He inadvertently saw two young men up ahead and was slightly startled. "There are two people up ahead. Mountain, go take a look at what's going on. Be careful!"

Out of caution, Shaukian instructed the mountain beside him, and then made the entire mercenary group stop, waiting for their search.

Not long after, Mountain came back, followed by Little Tian Feng and Little Flame.

"Captain, these two youths have separated from their companions." Big Mountain shouted from afar with his loud voice.

Releasing a sigh of relief, Xiao Keane brought the mercenary company over to welcome them.

"Hello Captain, we were attacked by Xuan Beasts and ended up separated from our comrades. If it's convenient, please send us back to the Domain. I am willing to pay 2000 gold coins."

Hearing that they could get two thousand gold coins, the mercenaries began to whisper to each other. To them, two thousand gold coins was no small amount, especially since it was a convenient sum.

Although Little Tian Feng and Bai Mei's bodies were in tatters, they still exuded a noble aura. It was likely that they were disciples of some large family in the domain. This was especially true for youngsters who roamed the outside world, as they all had some status.

Xiao Keane laughed heartily as he thought about it. "Little brother is too courteous. We are just going back to our own domain. There is no need for money. Just consider it as a good friend."

Hearing Xiao Keane reject the two thousand gold coins, the face of the man beside him darkened. He whispered into Xiao Keane's ear, "Captain, everyone's harvest this time is quite small. Two thousand gold coins is just a good subsidy.

A hint of displeasure appeared on Xiao Keane's face as he said, "Vice captain, don't worry. As long as I am still the captain of the Fierce Lion Mercenary Company, I will definitely not let my brothers get hungry!"

With a light snort, Ge Quan left.

He cupped his hands towards Little Tian Feng and forced out a smile. "Sorry for the ridicule, little brother."

Shaking his head, Little Tian Feng chuckled, "It should be us who gave you trouble." However, we cannot truly take advantage of you all. After all, it is not easy to live in such a dangerous environment. "

After saying that, Little Tian Feng took out a bag from his Xuan Ring and threw it to Big Mountain. "There are two thousand gold coins inside. This is what you deserve."

In the distance, watching Little Tian Feng's actions, Ge Quan's eyes revealed a strange light. He licked his chapped lips, turned around and left.

Holding the heavy bag, Big Mountain looked at Shaukian.

Ye Xiao shook his head with a bitter smile. The young master was not short of money after all; he even had a Xuan Ring! Taking a deep breath, Shaukian turned to Mountain and said, "Keep it. We'll share it with our brothers in a bit."

Smiling at Mountain's back as he left, Xiao Keane's expression turned serious, "May I ask what is the name of this young master?"

With a faint smile, Little Tian Feng said, "Captain can just call me Xiao Tian Feng. This person is … "My girlfriend, Bai Mei."

With a groan, Little White Plum's face turned red as it lowered its head, as if it did not dare to look at the expression in Shaukian's eyes.

"Haha, alright. Young Master Xiao, feel free to tell me anything along the way." Chuckling heartily, Shaukian said boldly.

Just like that, Xiao Tian Feng followed the mercenary group out, but with so many people, it wasn't long before he got familiar with the group.

Bai Mei, on the other hand, had been silently following Little Tian Feng the entire time, just like a newlyweds.

"Hey, Little Mo, your strength seems pretty good, why are you guys still in such a terrible situation?" Little Tian Feng pulled a youth who was about his age and asked softly.

In the mercenary group, Commander Shaukian was a late stage Grand Master, while Ge Quan was a middle stage Grand Mysterious Master. It was reasonable to say that the other members were also Grand Mysterious Scholars and Mysterious Masters.

"Shh!" Little Mo cast a glance at Ge Quan and said in a low voice: "Young Master Xiao, you might not know this, but the profound beasts in the desert usually come in groups, and with our strength, it is very difficult for us to deal with a fourth level mystical beast pack. Therefore, in order to avoid too many casualties, Captain chose to fight the profound beasts that are below the third level."

"Moreover, that Ge Quan relied on his cultivation base to obtain quite a number of spoils of war every time he distributed the spoils of war. We were unlucky this time around. When we encountered a group of top-grade Level 3 Sand Scorpions, we thought that our harvest would be quite good, but we did not expect that there would be a mutated Sand Scorpio hidden within. Although we killed the mutated Xuan Beast in the end, we lost two members.

Level three mutated profound beast? Little Tian Feng's eyes lit up as he asked anxiously, "Who has the Xuan Beast Core?"

Looking doubtfully at the excited Young Master Xiao, Little Mo replied, "Captain put it away. Although the number of mutated profound cores are rare, it is only at the third rank, so the use is not great. Therefore, the Guild Leader has stayed. In the future, we will exchange it for gold coins before distributing it to everyone else. "

"Haha, not bad, not bad. Little Mo, you did a great job." Laughing excitedly, Little Tian Feng patted Little Mo's shoulder and said, "Let's go, follow me to find your captain."

Scratching his head in confusion, Little Mo caught up to Xiao Tian Feng and stood in front of the Guild Leader.
