Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled lightly and waved her hand: "I saved you because you were once kind to us and spoke out to protect us. We are even!"
The mercenary narrowed his eyes and looked down as he spoke slowly: "I have no relatives and friends. I have followed the Mercenary Team everywhere and I have saved at least half of the team's lives. However, when I couldn't fight anymore and was unable to walk, they left me behind. Not one of them spoke up for me. They even took my cosmos sack and all my belongings away, leaving me with only a rusty dagger. I will never go back to the Mercenary Team."
Feng Jiu listened with one hand on her chin, but didn't speak.
"Young Master, let me leave with you! I can be your guard. I will protect you. I am a Golden Core cultivator, once my injuries have healed, I can still deal with some people."
