Mo Shi and Mo Hu were both taken aback when they saw this.
They hadn't anticipated that Jiang Chen would take action at the drop of a hat.
They were, after all, three Paladin Knights. Did he not fear that they might flee and then launch a stealthy attack on the people of Dragon Flame Mercenary Group?
While the two were still in shock, Mo Bao had already been driven away from them by Xing Fei. Before they could react, a burst of gunfire rang out.
Rat-a-tat-tat!
Thud-thud-thud!
Whizz!
It so happened that An Long and the others were training 'Snowflake Blockade', so their guns were all matched, and Chen Jiantao and the rest, because they were instructing An Long and the others, were also holding the guns most suited to 'Snowflake Blockade'. After Mo Bao was forced away, the two teams opened fire immediately!
"Using guns against Paladin Knights? Dragon King, you underestimate us... Ah, how is this possible?!"
Mo Shi had intended to ridicule Jiang Chen but, sensing the bullets spread by the two teams, his expression changed dramatically, feeling an intense danger from those bullets.
"Big brother, second brother, let's apologize! They have killed Paladin Knights with guns before!" Mo Bao, while dodging Xing Fei's attacks, shouted loudly.
"Nonsense! Us, Paladin Knights, forced to apologize by a bunch of ants?" Mo Hu shouted fiercely as he charged towards Chen Jiantao and the others.
However, as Mo Hu dashed forward, an ominous sense of danger flashed in his mind, and he hastily stopped, dodging the oncoming bullets.
But the bullet net was too dense, so Mo Shi and his companion had no choice but to release their Inner Qi outward, looking for weak spots in the barrage to dodge and weave through.
"Mr. Dragon King, we mean no harm!"
Seeing the situation was not good, Mo Bao shouted out loud.
Now, he truly regretted not having come to talk to Jiang Chen alone first, knowing well that Jiang Chen was stubborn. Yet he had still brought his two brothers to sneak in. He had thought Jiang Chen wouldn't take this matter too seriously, considering they were three Paladin Knights.
But he hadn't expected Jiang Chen to be so unyielding!
"I believe Mr. Mo Bao has no ill intentions, but can you ensure the same about your two brothers?"
Jiang Chen spoke coldly, "You come here with such rudeness, as if being Paladin Knights makes you remarkable! Did you think I would be eager to lick your boots to have you join? What do you take my Dragon Flame for? A place you can trifle with at will?"
Thud-thud-thud!
As Jiang Chen's voice fell, a figure ran from a distance, scanned the three sites, and stepped next to Jiang Chen: "Dragon King, the five Paladin Knights from the Dragon Soul Mercenary Group have arrived!"
Jiang Chen frowned slightly and, after giving Mo Bao and his brothers a glance, he said softly, "Bring them over."
"Yes!" The brother from Dragon Flame replied before turning and running toward the direction from which they had come.
"Dragon King, do you want everyone to know that your Dragon Flame can take down Paladin Knights with guns?" Mo Shi heard the conversation between Jiang Chen and the other person and called out in a low voice.
Jiang Chen gave Mo Shi and his companion a look and said coldly, "If you want to die, I can fulfill that wish!"
Clang!
Blood Saber emerged, and a stream of Bloody Radiance fell from the sky.
"Second Style of Blood Dance Heaven and Earth, Blood Moon Fall!"
Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh!
The radiance merged into the Blood Saber, and as Blood Moon appeared, it swiftly struck towards Mo Shi and his companion.
An Long, Chen Jiantao, and others halted their gunfire as the Blood Moon appeared. However, they still kept their guns aimed at Mo Shi and his companion, on alert for any potential counterattack!
"Mr. Dragon King, please don't!"
Mo Bao was desperate, wanting to turn around and charge at Mo Shi and his companion, but how could Xing Fei allow him to pass? With her exquisite combat skills, she forced Mo Bao against a tree, rendering him completely immobile!
"You..." A flash of horror crossed Mo Shi's eyes, and the might emanating from the Blood Moon made it clear to him that if the Bloody Moon Fall were to land on both of them, they were as good as dead!
A strong sense of regret filled Mo Hu's eyes. He had orchestrated today's situation, goading Mo Shi to join him in forcefully intimidating Jiang Chen.
Both he and Mo Shi were free mercenaries, tired of the lonely drifting life. When Mo Bao approached them, they heard that it was a newly established Mercenary Corps and thought to take advantage of the situation, to become the boss.
But they did not expect that instead of becoming the boss, they would be facing their demise here!
Whoosh!
Another streak of bloody light flashed by, and Jiang Chen's figure flickered beside Mo Shi and his companion, as he slashed at the Blood Moon!
Hum!
The Blood Moon instantly disintegrated, turning into streams of Bloody Radiance, merging into the Blood Saber.
Mo Shi and his companion were stunned for a moment, a surge of relief rising in their hearts, somewhat dazedly looking at Jiang Chen.
"Apologize!" Jiang Chen said coldly, looking at Mo Shi and his companion.
The faces of Mo Shi and his companion changed, hesitation flickering in their eyes.
Hum hum hum!
Xuan Long and Xing Fei flashed to Jiang Chen's side, staring fixedly at Mo Shi and his companion with a strong oppressive aura. Meanwhile, Jiang Chen, with the Blood Saber in hand, conjured faint bloody glows in the air.
"Big brother, second brother, apologize!" pleaded Mo Bao, rushing to Mo Shi's side and speaking urgently.
"Sorry, we were disrespectful, our apologies!" Mo Shi gritted his teeth and spoke solemnly,
Mo Hu sighed deeply and said solemnly, "Mr. Dragon King, our apologies, we... we came here to join the Dragon Flame Mercenary Group."
"No need, Dragon Flame does not need those who don't treat us as brothers. You may leave now," said Jiang Chen coldly.
Mo Bao's face paled, and he urgently said, "Mr. Dragon King, we truly were in the wrong, please give us another chance!"
"Mr. Mo Bao, I will be returning to my country soon, a fact you're aware of. If I leave and leave behind two individuals who wish to seize control, can you not foresee the kind of impact this would have on Dragon Flame?" Jiang Chen looked indifferently at Mo Bao.
Mo Bao was taken aback, turning his head and looking at Mo Shi and his brother in surprise, "Big brother, second brother, you..."
"Mr. Dragon King has sharp eyes. Indeed, we harbored such intentions, but... not anymore!" said Mo Shi softly.
"You think I'd believe that?" Jiang Chen said with a cold smile before issuing another eviction order, "You may leave now!"
Clatter!
Chen Jiantao and the others raised their guns. They had heard the conversation between Jiang Chen and the member of Dragon Flame, and they would not be courteous if Mo Shi and his brothers lingered and caused a fuss once Jiang Chen needed to see his guests.
"We take our leave!" A glint of cold light crossed Mo Hu's eyes as he walked towards the woods.
Mo Bao, with a face full of sorrow, nodded apologetically to Jiang Chen and followed Mo Hu.
"Sorry!" Mo Shi apologized again and also left.
Jiang Chen glanced at the backs of the three and signaled to Spirit You with his eyes.
Spirit You nodded and, with the sniper rifle in hand, ran into the jungle.
Tracking a Paladin Knight is almost impossible unless you're a stronger Paladin Knight yourself, otherwise, you're bound to be discovered. But for a sniper, even if discovered, they're often perceived merely as a lookout rather than arousing significant suspicion. Jiang Chen did not wish to keep Mo Shi and his brothers, but he also did not want to cause any misunderstandings, as he needed to maintain some respect for Mo Bao!
No sooner had the three brothers left than a brother from Dragon Flame approached with five people.
