Chapter 214: Yun Sheng's Renown
The matter escalated from Tang Yu alone to the entire Sky Expedition Hunting Corps.
For Cang Lang to become the commander of an A-level Hunting Corps, mere cultivation was not enough.
He was like a wolf king, cunning in thought and meticulous in planning, being the alpha and the overall controller within the Hunting Corps.
Yun Canglang had to consider carefully, as the commander of the Hunting Corps, he could not afford to let hundreds of Hunter Soldiers be implicated because of his personal matters.
Tang Yu's flabby body shivered uncontrollably, and he didn't even dare to cry or make a fuss anymore.
"Commander Yun, I'll give you three days to think it over. When you've made up your mind, tell me your answer. I hope you don't harbor other thoughts, like sending the person away secretly. Wuji Continent is vast, but the Hunter Soldier Alliance has footprints everywhere," Cang Lang stood up, ready to leave with Huo Nu and Liu Hao.
"No need for three days, I can answer you now. We won't hand the person over." The door of the tavern was pushed open.
The tavern owner hurriedly came forward to dissuade the visitors, "Dear guests, the tavern is closed today, we are not serving guests."
Seeing the newcomers, a glint of light flashed across Yun Canglang's otherwise grim face.
Tang Yu twitched as if struck by a fit.
The newcomers were also two men and a woman, different from the earlier formation of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps; the female mage among the three took the predominant position as they walked in.
She was the smallest and youngest but walked at the forefront. From the travel-worn appearance of the female mage, it seemed she had just returned from afar.
Yet, the bright smile on her face betrayed no signs of fatigue. She had exceptionally clean black eyes, and her similarly colored long hair was casually tied back with a cat's eye red jade hairpin.
At her waist hung a delicate Magic Wand, her whole demeanor was comforting to behold.
The two men behind her, one was a tall young martial artist.
The other man was a graceful young noble; without saying a word, his distinguished presence was strikingly handsome.
Yun Canglang saw his niece safe and sound and smiled in relief; the stress accumulated over the past few days because of Tang Yu had also faded much. Knowing Yun Sheng was here for a reason, he simply held back his words and let Yun Sheng take the lead.
Yun Sheng smiled at Yun Canglang, clearly not here to merely meet her uncle.
Her enchanting eyes swept over the members of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps subtly, and she clasped her hands together, "I am Yanyun, the Deputy Commander of the Sky Expedition Hunting Corps."
Yun Sheng had returned just before sunrise.
She first went back to the hospital; these past few days, the affairs at Yun Residence had been the talk of the town.
Lin Yao'er had gathered quite a bit of information.
After hearing the details, Yun Sheng barely had time to rest before rushing to Yun Residence.
Just as Lin Yao'er had described, outside the Yun Residence, there was a coffin placed.
The coffin was open, and inside lay a woman who had met a tragic death.
Yun Sheng did not enter the General Mansion; she merely pretended to be a curious onlooker, observed around the woman's coffin, and casually inquired about the matter with the woman's family.
While she was inquiring, Uncle Yun walked out from the residence. Overjoyed to see Yun Sheng, he secretly pulled her aside and informed her of the earlier arrangement by Yun Canglang for negotiating with the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps in the tavern.
This led to the scene of Yun Sheng rushing to the tavern.
After Yun Sheng introduced herself, the three members of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps couldn't help but be astonished.
They had not expected that the newly established deputy commander of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps would be this young female hunter.
You must know, forming a Hunting Corps on the continent is a significant matter; most hunters start as teenagers, fighting and struggling in the Hunter Soldier World, completing countless harsh missions before they can gradually accumulate fame and wealth in the industry.
With enough fame and wealth, some people will form their own Hunter Soldier Teams, or even Hunting Corps.
For the fortunate ones, it takes ten years, but for the less lucky, it might take twenty years.
Thus, in the Hunter Soldier Alliance, the youngest team captains or commanders are also over thirty years old, and some, like Cang Lang, are already in their forties.
People like Feng Kuo from the Huangteng trio are considered relatively young.
But how old can Yun Sheng be? Her real age is eight, and by appearance, she looks just twelve or thirteen.
It's no wonder the members of the Wolf Fang Hunting Corps were dumbfounded.
While they were murmuring about Yun Sheng's age, they suddenly remembered her name.
Yanyun.
This name, it sounds so familiar... Liu Hao, looking bizarrely at Yun Sheng, exclaimed as if he saw a ghost: "You are... you are Bloody Lolita, the former Yanyun from the Huangteng Hunting Soldier Team! The one who killed the Heihu Hunting Soldier Team, with a Summoning Emperor Level master as your mentor!"
With Liu Hao's shout, Cang Lang and Huo Nu also recalled such a character.
Being at the level of Cang Lang and Huo Nu, they usually wouldn't go to Hunting Soldier Guard City, but their subordinates were different. After completing their missions, they would go to Hunting Soldier Guard City a few times to fight in the arena to blow off steam or earn some drinking money.
It just so happened that when the Huangteng quartet participated in the Grade B Hunter Soldier Team assessment, Liu Hao was also attending the arena battle with his fellow comrades from the same corps.
At that time, the competition involving the Huangteng team, especially because of the involvement of Heihu Hunting Soldier Team from Hou Qin, became well known throughout Hunting Soldier Guard City.
The tickets for the final battle were sold at sky-high prices.
By the time Liu Hao went to buy the tickets, they had already sold out. To make up for the disappointment, he later paid a high price for a Magic Light Axis recording the battle.
The scene where Yun Sheng killed the Heihu Hunting Soldier Team has left a deep impression on him until now.
However, because Yun Sheng was wearing the Illusion Power Earring, he hadn't recognized her, but now, hearing Yun Sheng mention it and seeing the familiar Magic Wand in her hand, he immediately recognized her.
"Huangteng, are you talking about the recent prominent Grade B Hunter Soldier Team, Huangteng? I heard they might soon become the first Grade A Hunter Soldier Team on Wuji Continent," Cang Lang seemed to recall somewhat.
Huo Nu, standing beside, also showed a curious expression, she had seen the Magic Light Axis Liu Hao had purchased earlier.
Unexpectedly, this young girl, looking fresh like Little Molli, was actually that ruthless Bloody Lolita.
It just doesn't match her bloody image.
Hearing this, Ye Beiming, gazed at Yun Sheng up and down a few times with a teasing expression on his face.
Little did he expect that before reuniting with him, Little Wildcat had been involved in so many things.
Feeling goosebumps from his stare, Yun Sheng fiercely rolled her eyes at him.
"I'm flattered that the brothers from the Hunter Soldier Alliance hold me in high esteem; I suppose I did have such a nickname before," facing the ghost-like expressions of the crowd, Yun Sheng chuckled and straightforwardly admitted her identity.
