"Ah, isn't that what you're talking about?" Liu Zhaodi pointed to certain indescribable areas.
Jiang Yuan grabbed Liu Zhaodi, who was backing away, and said with a smile, "If I had known that this was how you saw me, I shouldn't have left that night."
Liu Zhaodi blushed, feeling utterly ashamed, and said, "Didn't you say you wouldn't mention it?"
“You brought it up first!” Jiang Yuan said indifferently.
"I...I didn't, I was just answering truthfully, but something's not right!" Liu Zhaodi's momentum weakened, and she also showed a pitiful expression.
Jiang Yuan thought about it again and realized that it was normal that Liu Zhaodi was so stupid that she didn't notice.
"Don't be angry anymore, I will definitely take responsibility for you!" Liu Zhaodi hugged her like a koala.
"Liu Zhaodi, let go of me!" Jiang Yuan tried to pry her hands off.
"No, no, no, unless you stop being angry with me!" Liu Zhaodi used her skill when she couldn't win by strength, and her skill only made Jiang Yuan keep retreating. Soon, the two of them fell to the ground in each other's arms.
With a whoosh, the gates of the military camp were flung open, and the crowd that filed in was immediately dumbfounded.
"Quickly, quickly, get out!" Zhang Ziping, who was at the front, sensed something was wrong and hurriedly told the selected people to leave.
"Damn, is our boss really that tough?"
"This rolling and kissing move has a bit of an idol drama vibe!"
"You don't know anything! This is called taking it easy when your feelings are shallow, and kissing passionately when your feelings are deep!"
Jiang Yuan felt a little embarrassed after hearing what these guys said, so he picked up Liu Zhaodi and put her in a soft chair.
"I……"
Upon seeing so many people, Liu Zhaodi quickly raised her hand to cover her eyes, only able to cautiously peek at Jiang Yuan's reaction through her fingers. She was relieved to see that he did not show any anger.
"Boss, all the brothers are here!" Zhang Ziping said, cupping his hands in greeting.
Jiang Yuan kicked the chair, and with skillful control of his strength, the soft chair turned so that Liu Zhaodi was facing away from everyone.
"Cough cough, just now!"
Jiang Yuan wanted to explain, but Zhang Ziping quickly and cleverly said, "Nobody saw anything just now!"
"Phew!" Jiang Yuan felt that continuing to explain would only make things worse, so he simply stopped talking and looked at the people in front of him in a deep voice, "Who are these people?"
“Boss, these brothers are willing to leave the camp and go hunting with you!” Zhang Ziping bit his lip, not daring to look up at Jiang Yuan’s expression.
"Is that all the people?" Jiang Yuan's expression was neither happy nor sad. There were at least fifty or sixty people in front of him. Although the number was not small, it should be noted that the Changgan Group that came to Nancheng had four hundred and twelve people, and this was only one-tenth of them.
“Some others said they were injured, while others said they wanted to defend the city’s defenses!” Zhang Ziping said in a deep voice.
"Boss, didn't you say we're Oath Reserves? When can we actually join the Oath? Is it just a matter of doing enough missions?" A dark-skinned young man in the crowd asked excitedly.
"Yeah, boss, we're not afraid of dying, we're just afraid of having no future!" the others chimed in.
Jiang Yuan simply smiled at all the questions. The fact that these people were standing here now did not mean that they were absolutely loyal. True loyalty could only be shown when facing life and death.
"Boss, Taishicheng said he needs to go into seclusion as he's close to a breakthrough, so he probably won't be able to come!" Zhang Ziping sighed helplessly when he saw Jiang Yuan remain silent.
Jiang Yuan nodded. His seclusion was just an excuse; his real fear was dying in the occupied land.
"Now that we have a clear goal, let's set off!" Jiang Yuan didn't want to say more. If there wasn't even this much trust, then this oath-based reserve force would be a joke. It would be better to give up early to avoid cultivating a bunch of ingrates.
Seeing that Jiang Yuan offered no explanation, the others also seemed somewhat agitated, but under Zhang Ziping's leadership, they were able to maintain morale.
Including Jiang Yuan and Liu Zhaodi, their group consisted of fifty-four people in total, and apart from Liu Zhaodi, they were all men.
However, Liu Zhaodi didn't hold back and quickly became friends with the group, even earning the title of "Big Sister-in-law" in a short period of time.
Although Jiang Yuan saw this scene, he did not stop it. These people had survived countless hardships, and their belief in survival was far beyond that of ordinary people. What they needed was training, not suppression.
After the fall of the West Gate area, it had long become a paradise for monsters. Although the beast tide had not completely pushed in, the description of one monster every ten steps was indeed accurate. If these fifty-two people were to be sent to the West Gate, they would be facing an overwhelming horde of beasts.
Two figures flashed past in the ruins. Jiang Yuan remained calm and simply shouted, "Keep moving forward!"
Where are you going?
Just as Jiang Yuan was about to leave, Liu Zhaodi grabbed his arm.
"Let go!" Jiang Yuan said irritably.
"Shi Zhixi sensed two hidden auras nearby. I need to protect you!" Liu Zhaodi was a smart woman. She guessed that Jiang Yuan probably knew those two people, but if she said it directly, Jiang Yuan definitely wouldn't let her follow him. So she used the clumsy excuse of protecting him.
"Woman, protect yourself!" Jiang Yuan gently patted Liu Zhaodi's face, then with a slight push, Liu Zhaodi's distorted face was thrown to the side.
"You stinking Jiang Yuan, you hit a woman!"
Liu Zhaodi immediately turned around, but Jiang Yuan had already disappeared.
"You're a monster! You even concealed your aura!" Liu Zhaodi stomped her feet in anger. After all, Stone Breath was only an intermediate-level talent, so it wasn't difficult for someone to deliberately avoid her detection.
In the dark alley
"My lord, we've gathered the intelligence!"
A man and a woman knelt on one knee in front of Jiang Yuan. They were the two assassins Wu Yong had hired to kill him, but now they were working for him.
