"Lick shoes?!"
Even Gu Shen was shocked by this statent.
Do North Continent n always make such intense bets... His gaze towards Mo Hongyi beca strange, and Su He’s words brought a dead silence to the whole squad’s public chat channel.
Turns out, it’s the quiet ones who are the fiercest of all.
"Damn... it’s just licking shoes, right?!"
Old Mo’s movent actually slowed down, and he turned his head back, snarling fiercely, "North Continent n keep their word, I can’t lose face for our Investigation Corps! Brother Gu, raise your foot!"
"No, no, no..."
Gu Shen was startled.
Given the ruthlessness of these guys, nothing they might do would surprise him.
Gu Shen found it both amusing and exasperating, while others were egging them on for fun.
In the chat channel, suddenly a deep voice sounded.
"This matter... let’s leave it at that."
It was Yuan Yuan’s voice.
The deputy leader of the second squad, he also rarely spoke in the chat channel, mostly listening in silence... During the "arduous trek," being at the front of the team was more dangerous than holding the rear, so Yuan Yuan spent most of his effort on verifying the map and sensing dangers.
Now, he spoke up to put an end to these antics.
However... Yuan Yuan wasn’t about to scold his subordinates.
He too stopped in his tracks and turned his head towards Gu Shen, his eyes holding a trace of apology: "Brother Gu, this matter... is actually my responsibility. I apologize, I had a prejudice against you before, and I’ve co today to apologize specifically, hoping you won’t bla Mo Hongyi."
Gu Shen was taken aback.
"Because of the ’Hong Zhong’ incident, I had a friction with Gu Castle Fortress..." Yuan Yuan said softly: "During that ti, I was sowhat angry, even though I hate to admit it, that anger indeed influenced my decisions. Regarding the Lord of the Legion’s arrangents, and your joining, I reluctantly accepted with a resistant attitude."
In the initial confrontation training—
Yuan Yuan didn’t hide his "contempt" for Gu Shen.
His subordinates were all elites! The personnel he brought this ti were comrades he had been with day and night for years, and facing the dangers of the labyrinthine mission, how could he dare to trust his back to a stranger?
But just a few days...
His impression of Gu Shen had undergone a trendous change.
The young man followed the Investigation Corps through a full set of training without complaining once... Obviously, this was nowhere near his limit, and even increasing the training load in special enhancent training didn’t reach Gu Shen’s "limit."
This young man had profound strength.
Zhang Ning, who was from the East Continent, had even explained to him in detail the recent event at Qingzhong Cetery, and Yuan Yuan then realized why Lord Aluer took the trouble to bring this young man all the way to Gu Castle.
His view of Gu Shen had completely changed.
This was undoubtedly a strong figure worthy of respect.
Just like... the CN021 of those years!
Under Rust Bone General, the strongest of the North Continent and the near-mythical figure of recent years, it was said that the mysterious man also ca from the East Continent. Yuan Yuan wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but he saw so similarities between Gu Shen and CN021.
They were not exactly the sa, but they shared many similarities.
He heard rumors saying... CN021 also had the surna Gu?
However—
The current Gu Shen was even younger than CN021 when he first rose to fa!
He was only twenty years old... At that age, Yuan Yuan probably was just a sentry under the command of White Lizard, right?
Gu Shen smiled and said, "It’s a small matter, no need for everyone to take it to heart."
North Continent n are indeed straightforward.
The rules here are unique and simple...
As long as you are strong enough, you will earn everyone’s respect!
These rough n were not just straightforward brutes; they had a subtlety to them, plenty of things they could see clearly without having to spell it all out.
The usually silent Su He was the one to point out Mo Hongyi’s bet at this ti.
He was actually choosing the best way out for Old Mo.
Together, they fought on missions beyond the Great Wall!
To move as one... ant comradery!
What do the previous conflicts matter in the collapsing whirlpool of the Old World?
"Let’s change formation."
Su He said softly, "Formation number seven."
The two squads, twelve Transcendents, began to adjust their pace, weaving the main and secondary teams together.
During the shift in formation, Mo Hongyi approached Gu Shen, hesitated for two seconds, then spoke gravely, "Brother... sorry about before."
Gu Shen smiled and said, "On the East Continent side, your behavior would be chastised as ’making a fuss’."
Mo Hongyi was montarily taken aback.
Then he burst into laughter.
The burly man gave Gu Shen a hearty pat on the shoulder and said with a grin, "Good lad, I’m liking you more and more!"
Elsewhere, Zhu Xiao extended his finger disdainfully and said, "Old Mo, be careful with your words, lad. Little Gu’s already taken, watch out for Miss Chu from the Qingzhong Cetery using her Divination Skill to curse you..."
Gu Shen laughed helplessly in his heart.
Divination Skill didn’t have the power to curse... This big brother must have been away from the East Continent for too long.
Zhu Xiao exaggerated the fearso aspects of the "Tomb Guardian Divination Skill," speaking of soul-searching from a thousand miles away and bringing about bad on, truly frightening Mo Hongyi. He sheepishly retracted his hand and muttered earnestly, "Miss Chu, I offended you unintentionally... please don’t take it to heart... I wish you and Brother Zhu all the best and a prosperous future as an apology."
