Chapter 90: Let’s Go, Shiny Plains (3)
More than a hundred tents were set up here, extending one after another. Yun Feng followed the man and walked for a long time. She received some curious and inquisitive gazes, mixed with surprises and doubts, along the way. A girl showed up here with a Magic Beast, which made people think of that mysterious and powerful profession. However, they demolished their thoughts and felt like they were a bit crazy to have such an idea.
“We’re here. Go inside, little girl.” The man walked to a tent, lifted up the curtain and smiled at Yun Feng. Yun Feng didn’t say anything. She immediately entered the tent. The man and the young people behind were slightly shocked. They were shocked by how trusting Yun Feng was.
The few of them restrained their emotions and walked in. Yun Feng picked a seat, then sat down. Watching those people sit down one by one, Yun Feng said softly, “Guys, what do you want from me?”
The few of them were stunned again and were slightly embarrassed afterwards. After all, they indeed had certain plans for this little girl. They just hadn’t thought that this kid would see through their minds and even ask ahead of them.
“Haha, you’re quite sensitive, little girl. You’ve noticed that…” The tough man chuckled as he scratched the top of his head with his large hand. After that, he went silent and just sat there with a glint in his eyes.
A woman among the young people was a little anxious. Seeing that the man wasn’t talking, the woman smiled at Yun Feng and instantly said, “You’re right, little girl. We need your help.”
Yun Feng nodded. When the woman saw that Yun Feng wasn’t averse to it, she couldn’t help but feel happy. She immediately pointed gently at Meatball on Yun Feng’s shoulder. “Little girl, can you sell this Magic Beast to us? We don’t care how much it costs. We don’t mind even if you want us to do something for you. Anything!”
Once the woman said so, Yun Feng’s face became completely cold. Meatball on her shoulder also understood. It abruptly snarled with its originally cute face and showed its sharp teeth, looking a little ferocious. The woman who spoke was also frightened by Meatball’s look.
Yun Feng gently caressed Meatball’s body, on which its hair had already stood on end, with her finger to take the edge off Meatball’s anger as she looked at the speaking woman. “What you’re asking for isn’t a small thing. You want me to sell it to you? Can you afford it?”
The woman immediately smiled wryly, while the tough man shook his head in frustration. He said to the woman, “Xiao Ying, just forget about it. If this little girl doesn’t want to sell it to us, we shouldn’t force her.”
The woman called Xiao Ying pursed her lips with struggles in her eyes. She certainly could see that the little girl was very clever. This girl even knew clearly whether they could afford it or not…
“Little girl, please sell this Magic Beast to us no matter what. Although we can’t afford it right now, we’ll pay you immediately when we have money. Promise!”
Yun Feng looked at the desperate woman. There was also a trace of anxiousness in the eyes of the few young people sitting next to her, while the tough man smiled with frustration and embarrassment. Yun Feng realized in her heart that these people didn’t seem to be cruel and they didn’t have any evil intentions. If they were truly bad people, they would have probably made a move to steal Meatball directly.
“What do you need it for?” Yun Feng picked Meatball up from her shoulder and put it on her legs. Meatball gnashed its teeth at these few people who were preying on it, then turned its body around and pointed its butt straight at them. It stared at Yun Feng with its grape-like eyes with deep complaints.
Yun Feng found it funny and she poked Meatball’s head with her finger. Would this little thing truly think that she would sell it to someone else?
The woman thought Yun Feng agreed after hearing what she said. “Do you mean you’re willing to sell it to us?”
Yun Feng looked up and sneered, “Sell it? When did I say that?”
“That’s enough, Xiao Ying! Stop talking!” The tough man suddenly shouted. Xiao Ying looked at him with reluctance in her eyes, but she also bit her lips and didn’t say a word anymore.
“I’m so sorry, little girl. If you’re not selling it, we won’t take it from you forcibly.” The tough man said to Yun Feng with a righteous look and with honesty in his eyes. Yun Feng immediately felt much better about this tough guy.
“Are you in some kind of trouble?”
Once the tough man heard Yun Feng’s question, he couldn’t help but give a wry smile. He shook his head as his body leaned on the chair dispiritedly. When Xiao Ying heard what Yun Feng asked, she immediately mumbled, “Even if we are, how can a kid like you help us?”
The corners of Yun Feng’s mouth raised gently. She wasn’t upset at all because of what Xiao Ying said. These weren’t bad people. They might truly have their reason. However, Yun Feng was displeased that they asked for Meatball right away. Regardless of that, they were already like clear water among the mercenaries.
“You dealt with the guard for me today, so you helped me. Now that you have a problem, you can also tell me about it. After all, many hands make light work.”
The tough man couldn’t help but develop a good impression on Yun Feng after hearing what she said, but he didn’t have much hope in his mind. After all, Yun Feng was just a kid. How helpful could she be?
“Little girl, I’m not trying to insult you. We appreciate your kindness, but there’s nothing you can do to help, other than selling this Magic Beast to us.” Xiao Ying looked at Yun Feng with unwillingness to give up on Meatball in her eyes.
Yun Feng frowned. “I’m not selling it. Stop thinking about that.”
Xiao Ying immediately heaved a deep sigh after seeing that. “Fine, fine… Just forget about it… This will be the end of the Red Maple Mercenary Team…”
The faces of the other few people instantly darkened. Yun Feng couldn’t help but chuckle softly when she saw this. “The end? Even though I’m not sure what problem you’re having, I know one thing. No matter how big the problem is, there’s always a solution for it.”
“A solution? You’re saying it like it’s easy, kid. A solution… We need a supreme powerhouse or a living Magic Beast. Little girl, tell me how we can solve this problem?”
When Yun Feng heard that, the smile at the corners of her mouth was extremely peaceful and didn’t carry any waves of emotions at all. She poked Meatball’s head with her finger. It was still not in a good mood.
