Naturally, General Manager Su would not stay here to listen to their mumbling. He flicked his sleeves and said lightly:
Those who are interested can sign up at the Freelance Martial Artist Union. Of course, allow me to speak the bitter words, those who do not meet the requirement please don’t waste our time!
In this big square, there weren’t many elite warriors at the Refined Void Martial Stage. However, there were some Perfect Stage and Advanced Stage freelance martial artists.
Apparently, each of these people worried about personal gains and losses as they hesitated about whether they should sign up. Without a doubt, the rewards were extremely attractive. Also, it was fair.
Only, for this mission, although it was broadly advertised, many people could recognize the advantages and disadvantages behind it.
If one attacked the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, they would be openly making enemies of the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. The Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan had once sat on the seat of the Heavenly Emperor. Even if their strength had declined, a centipede would still die struggling hard. The strong foundation of the Qin Clan still ensured they could stand proudly as one of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates. For thousand of years, despite being pushed aside, beaten down, they still stood straight and no one had replaced them.
Thus, no one could promise that the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan would not rise again.
Most importantly, in the recent millenias, the Xuan Yuan Mound had changed Heavenly Emperors every five hundred years. The changing of the Heavenly Emperors could be described as a rotation of each family. However, after so many changes, in general, the time when the Qin Clan had sat in the position was the period when the Xuan Yuan Mound had been the most prosperous and stable.
Although the Qin Clan was currently in decline, all sorts of different positive perceptions about the Qin Clan was still planted deeply inside many people’s minds.
Even when the Heavenly Emperor Qin had taken the Heavenly Emperor seat, they had always been fair in handling matters; they did not bully the weak. Although their methods were strict, they had never compromised with any vicious powerhouses or made any accessions.
It was because that the Qin was way too upright, it had shaken their foundation as the too rigid was too easy to break. They had started to decline and fallen into their current situation as they deteriorated day by day.
However, the vigorous style of the Qin Clan had left a deep mark for thousands of years. It had spread to all corners of the Xuan Yuan Mound. All the Qin branches had never given up on the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Even in death, they would not give up the pride of being a Qin descendent!
For example, that Qin Guan or that Qin Zhao had represented that temperament.
Qin Wushuang experienced this aspect deeply. Qin Guan’s determined expression, his care of his own sister and the pursuit of justice without a second thought along with Qin Zhao’s pride while on the verge of death, his optimism had deeply resounded with Qin Wushuang.
In fact, when the legacy had passed to Qin Wushuang, the bloodline between each Qin branch was insignificant to the point that it could be ignored.
However, the estrangement between the generations of the Qin bloodline would not destroy this temperament! On the contrary, among the crowd, this temperament that only belonged to the Qin manifested a mutual understanding between the Qin descendants!
Boss, should we sign up?
Bao Bao send his voice to ask.
Yes, we will return to the inn and restore your appearances.
Qin Wushuang said with a smile,
No rush, let’s go back in groups.
Ok!
When they had returned to the inn, inwardly, Qin Wushuang was feeling much better. Since Qin Zhao had been rescued by someone, he would no longer need to feel troubled.
Boss, the strength of that young man of the Jiu Fang Clan is formidable. We saw how that General Manager Su was good at bluffing, most likely he would not be the opponent to that Jiu Fang Feiyun!
Bao Bao did not like that General Manager Su.
Lone also highly acknowledged Bao Bao’s viewpoint:
Yes, Boss, that Jiu Fang Feiyun was quite good at riding on the sword. He flashed to the sky instantly. I think that even an elite warrior at the Profound Void Martial Stage could not do anything to stop him!
Riding the sword to fly…
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh,
It would only work if he had a flying sword that used his own spiritual energy as the power source. I think that Jiu Fang Feiyu shares a deep bond with his sword. It seemed like that sword was part of his life.
However, Bao Bao laughed:
Boss, you don’t have to be jealous of him. When you enter the Void Martial Stage and have the Ying Yang Purple Cloud Wing grow out, it would become part of your body and better than any flying sword. When the wings flap, you would travel thousands of miles in one leap. Wouldn’t it be much cooler to fly a few hundred thousand miles a day?
Qin Wushuang gave a long sigh:
The Silver Monkey King said that the Ying Yang Purple Cloud Wing must evolve a few times to reach this effect. It definitely would not be as devilish at the beginning of the Void Martial Stage.
Ha ha, still it would be faster than riding a flying sword. Regardless, riding a sword would rely on the speed of the sword and using one’s own power to wield it. There’s still a massive difference compared to having wings of your own. What do you think?
Qin Wushuang laughed:
I certainly hope so.
Lone gave a long sigh:
Boss, when you enter the Void Martial Stage, normal Refined Void Martial Stage warriors would not even be able to fight with you without the flying skills. Normally, the Transformation Void Martial Stage is the beginning stage for flying techniques. If you can fly at the Refined Void Martial Stage, you are one step ahead. I don’t need to describe the advantage in here.
Bao Bao also agreed fully:
That’s right, Boss, when you enter the Refined Void Martial Stage, it will be the day when you shine at the Xuan Yuan Mound!
Qin Wushuang did not get taken in by these wild imaginations. In his opinion, those things that had not yet been realized yet was just empty air. Everything would happen in due time and he shouldn’t become overly optimistic.
He stood up and said:
Let’s make some preparations and sign up. Since that General Manager Su is a mistrustful person, I am afraid that registration would not be easy. We must prepare the exact stories for our identities and don’t let him catch any mistakes.
Yes, this registration cannot be done randomly as we will go through an investigation. Boss, have you thought about our background identities?
This General Manager Su is from the Orderly Mountain prefecture. With his level at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, he would not have travelled through the entire seventy-two prefecture of the Xuan Yuan Mound. For our identities, we will be the three brothers of the Wu Clan from the Gobi Water Sky prefecture. That Gobi of the Water Sky prefecture is a barren land. It’s not only far from the Orderly Mountain prefecture, it’s also rather secluded from the outside world. Even if he were to doubt our origin, there is no way he could verify it!
Next, Qin Wushuang made sure that they answered similarly on some crucial questions. They had prepared the same oral confession to prevent that General Manager Su breaking through each of them from individual interrogation.
After making all the contingency plans, Qin Wushuang was finally satisfied as he laughed:
This way, even if that General Manager Su is to investigate our eighteen generations of ancestors, we will know how to answer him. Remember, if that guy asks more than three questions, you guys must pretend to be furious to stop him from continuing to ask. The more angry we are, the more believable it would be. This General Manager Su is an old and sly fox, we must do the opposite of his expectations and prevent him discovering our weakness through continuous questions.
Yes, your words make sense.
After their discussion, these three left and headed towards that Freelance Martial Artist union. When they were at the door, there were managers showing them the way.
Hearing that they were here to sign up, this manager sent someone to report it. After a moment, a person walked came out and it was that man in black who had followed General Manager Su.
Are you guys here to sign up?
The man in black sized Qin Wushuang and his two friends up. Apparently, he was judging them.
What, is this not the place to register?
Lone raised his thick eyebrows. As soon as he stood there with his forthright body, he appeared vigorous and one would not dare to look down on him easily.
That man in black gave a sneer:
What’s with the rush, big guy? Are you afraid that I would push you out if you have the skill? Words are good as long as you can pass the investigation.
After he had finished speaking, he waved his hand:
Come with me.
Qin Wushuang and the two others followed him to walk through a corridor to the inner area. In a moment, they had arrived at a courtyard in the back. Currently, there were already a dozen of people here to sign up.
That General Manager Su said in a clear voice as he stood before the door of the yard:
Everyone, I am only recruiting fifteen people this time. No more than three Refined Void Martial stage warriors, and no more than five Perfect Stage Upper Sky warriors. The remaining can be Advanced Stage.
Initially, the four General Managers would only accept twenty spots when recruiting for people to attack the castle of the Hundred Leaf Qin clan.
General Manager Su had already selected people for five of the spots. The remaining fifteen would be recruited externally. Regarding the profits, if all twenty people of each General Manager successfully completed the mission, they would only get twenty or thirty percent of the million gold crystal stones reward.
If that was the case, from Commander Chen to the four General Managers, they would not make much profit.
However, they also made some calculations that it would be impossible for everyone to come back in one piece during the process of attacking the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan. It would be lucky if half of the eighty people managed to come back.
If they died during the mission, the organization would not take any responsibility!
General Manager Su, another three have come.
General Manager Su glanced at them and instructed after a nod:
Go and test their skill. We will investigate them if they have the required strength.
Yes.
The man in black answered him and called to Qin Wushuang:
Follow me, let’s test your skills.
Qin Wushuang, Bao Bao, and Lone had already made plans. For the three of them, Qin Wushuang would not conceal his strength by registering as the Perfect Stage.
Bao Bao and Lone would register as Advanced Stage. It was because being of the beast race, they could easily hide their strength after shape transformation. Even General Manager Su, who was at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, would not uncover their disguise. Unless they decided to expose their flaws deliberately!
The process of testing their skills was simple. Naturally, Qin Wushuang, being the most experienced person had passed easily. Bao Bao and Lone had also passed this level without any surprises as they followed the original plan.
After the test of skill, that man in black said:
One Perfect Stage, two Advanced Stage. Correct?
Yes.
You are from the Gobi Water Sky prefecture?
That man in black asked along the way.
Are you in charge of the investigation?
Lone asked lightly.
Of course not, General Manager Su heads the investigation!
When that man in black talked about General Manager Su, he showed a face full of adoration.
Since you are not in charge of the investigation, why do you ask so many questions?
Lone put on an annoyed face.
