Battle Through the Heavens: Starting as a Sweeper and Becoming Invincible Through Sign-in

Chapter 62 Did I Agree to Your Leaving?

"Holy crap, there are still people here?"

Xiao Chen stared at the bonfire from afar, paused for a moment, then put away the Little Purple Crystal Winged Lion King and walked towards the burning bonfire.

Only after he got closer could Xiao Chen see clearly that there were five figures sitting beside the campfire, three men and two women, with weapons placed within easy reach of them.

Then Xiao Chen vaguely saw that they all wore what looked like the same badge on their chests, indicating that they belonged to the same mercenary group.

At that moment, a middle-aged man spotted Xiao Chen beside the campfire and asked, "Who are you?"

Upon hearing his voice, the four men beside the middle-aged man drew their weapons and cautiously moved towards the direction the middle-aged man was looking.

"Everyone, let's talk this out. I'm just passing by and have no other intentions. Please don't misunderstand," Xiao Chen said with a smile.

He wasn't carrying any weapons, and seeing Xiao Chen's youthful face, the men breathed a sigh of relief and put down their weapons.

"Young man, are you a mercenary too? Why are you alone in the Monster Mountain Range?"

Xiao Chen shook his head and said with a smile, "Hehe, I'm not a mercenary. I'm just a doctor. I came in alone to look for medicinal herbs because I ran out." As he spoke, he took out a bunch of medicinal herbs from his body to prove to these people that he was indeed a doctor and not a mercenary.

Xiao Chen's actions indeed worked. They heard Xiao Chen's explanation and saw the herbs in his hand.

The middle-aged man pointed to the fire beside him and said, "Young man, don't stand there, come and sit down."

Thank you!

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, Xiao Chen clasped his hands in a fist salute, and then, under everyone's gaze, walked straight to the fire and sat down.

"Young man, my name is Kagang, a five-star Dou Zhe. What's your name?" the middle-aged man asked Xiao Chen with a smile.

"My name is Xiao Chen. I'm a physician, and my strength is only that of a three-star Dou Zhe." Xiao Chen deliberately downplayed his level, because if he revealed his true strength, it would definitely scare these people.

At that time, although they will not drive him away, they will be on guard.

It's better to downplay your abilities than to cause unnecessary trouble; it's better for everyone that way.

Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, a little girl mocked, "You're a coward. A mere three-star warrior dares to venture into the Monster Mountain Range? Are you tired of living?"

Xiao Chen completely ignored the little girl and couldn't be bothered to pay her any attention.

"Qingxin, a four-star Dou Zhe." A woman in a green robe said to Xiao Chen with a smile.

"Mo Shi, a four-star fighter, hehe, little brother, just call me Lion," said a somewhat burly man.

Just as the last man in white was about to speak, the little girl interrupted him, saying, "This is my brother Mu Lan. He's a five-star Dou Zhe. Even our leader says he has exceptional talent."

The other person smiled and nodded at Xiao Chen without saying anything.

After a brief introduction, everyone got to know each other. Later, during the conversation, Xiao Chen discovered that these people were actually members of the Blood Battle Mercenary Group, one of the three major mercenary groups in Qingshan Town.

Upon learning that the other party was a member of the Blood War Mercenary Group, Xiao Chen would occasionally ask about information about the Wolf Head Mercenary Group or the current situation in Green Mountain Town during the ensuing conversation.

After all, now that they've left the Monster Mountain Range, they have to seek revenge on the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

This is something we absolutely cannot tolerate.

Kagan didn't hide anything from Xiao Chen's question, and told him everything he knew about the Wolf Head Mercenary Group's recent situation and some of its movements.

After all, they are considered hostile forces, so there is no need to keep their secrets.

After chatting for a while, just as Xiao Chen was about to leave, the enthusiastic Kagang invited him to stay at their camp for the night. He had no choice but to stay there.

The next day, as dawn broke, Xiao Chen emerged from his tent, while the others, including Kagang, began packing up their camp.

"Good morning!" Xiao Chen greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, so you've finally decided to get up? We've been keeping watch over you for most of the night, and you've been sleeping soundly until now. How can you be so shameless?"

He had just walked over when the girl's cold laughter rang out again.

Xiao Chen ignored the girl completely, and after greeting the men in the camp, he helped them pack up their tents.

After being ignored by Xiao Chen, the girl was even more furious and wished she could go up and fight him.

After packing up their tents, Xiao Chen walked with them for a while since it was along the same route.

As they walked, they saw a group of seven or eight people riding unicorns speeding along the road. All the passersby hurriedly ran away to avoid being accidentally injured.

"What bad luck to run into this annoying guy." Kagan paused for a moment, then frowned and said.

Hearing Kagang's words, Xiao Chen also turned his gaze to the main road, looking at the gaunt man riding the first unicorn, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is he?"

"Gan Mu, the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group," Kagan said with a wry smile. "This guy is really at odds with us. Every time we run into him, nothing good ever comes of it. And he's a nine-star Dou Zhe, so we can't beat him."

"So you're the second leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group!" Upon hearing Kagang's words, Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback, but then a smile spread across his face.

I was planning to go to them anyway, but now that they've come to me, it's saved me a lot of trouble.

At this moment, the somewhat unruly girl, upon seeing the man on horseback, turned deathly pale and cried out in panic, "Uncle Kagang, let's go quickly!"

Seeing the fear in her eyes, Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile.

Just then, the gaunt man rode up on his horse. His gaze swept over the men on the outpost, and then he grinned arrogantly:

"Hey, isn't this Kagan from the Blood War Mercenary Group? What did you find in the Monster Mountain Range this time? Anything good?"

Kagan looked at him with a furrowed brow, without saying a word.

Seeing that the guard remained silent, the gaunt man didn't seem to mind at all, as if he was already used to it. He simply shifted his gaze to the unruly girl.

Then he greedily licked his lips and said lecherously, "Oh, Ling'er is getting more and more beautiful. Uncle likes girls like you the most. The feeling is amazing."

Upon hearing the gaunt man's laughter, the unruly girl named Ling'er trembled with fear and quickly hid behind the guard post, not daring to utter a sound.

"Haha, I have urgent business to attend to today, so I can't play with you guys anymore. Haha, next time we meet, it won't be so easy!"

After saying this, the gaunt man laughed heartily, lashed the horse's rump hard with his whip, and prepared to leave.

Seeing the gaunt man about to leave, the men on the outpost all breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out, saying, "Leave? Did I give you permission to leave?"
