Kong Fan, the leader of the four secret guards, replied, "The master said that the four of us will follow the young master from now on and obey his arrangements in everything." Although he answered like this, Kong Fan had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, Murong Xiao smiled with satisfaction and said, "Since that's the case, from now on, I order you to join this team. I want you to lead this team to progress together!"
"Young Master!" The four secret guards expressed their dissatisfaction with their new master in unison.
They were secret guards, sent to protect the Crown Princess. Now the Crown Princess had exiled them here, keeping them company with this obviously unruly disbanded soldier.
How could these soldiers who had been dismissed from the organization compare with these first-class secret guards?
Murong Xiao raised his eyebrows, his expression darkening instantly as he stared at the four indignant people: "Is there a problem?"
"Young Master, we were sent by our Lord to protect you. How can we be allowed to join a team of this level for training?" An Si Yaheng complained first.
Since his words were spoken in front of all 500 team members, they immediately felt unhappy. However, since these four people were close friends of the young master, and these team members... to put it bluntly, they were all after the young master's money, so they could only endure the insult.
"Protect this young master?" These few words coming out of Murong Xiao's mouth made the four secret guards tremble in their hearts.
They have heard of the Crown Princess's deeds. With her skills, she probably doesn't need their protection!
"Are you sure?" Murong Xiao then kicked a small stone from the ground and sent it towards a large rock opposite him. Because he used precise force, hitting the most vulnerable part of the rock, the rock cracked and shattered into countless pieces.
The four secret guards looked at the scene in front of them and swallowed their saliva. Their big eyes were full of disbelief and admiration for Murong Xiao.
In this world, the strong are respected. Murong Xiao is just a woman, and she is also the Crown Princess, yet she has such skills. This is definitely beyond their reach.
Just based on this skill, they didn't have the face to say the word "protect" to Murong Xiao.
Just as the four secret guards were shocked, Murong Xiao's voice rang out again.
"A secret guard's duty is to protect their master, but in your current state, you can only be considered half-baked at best. With your skills, if you really encountered an enemy that even I couldn't handle, you would surely be dead long ago, so how can you talk about protection?"
Murong Xiao's words were harsh, but they were true. The four secret guards lowered their heads in shame. As secret guards, their martial arts skills were far inferior to their master's. Now they were sent to the mistress, but even the mistress was much more skilled than them.
Facing their two masters, they really couldn't talk about "protection".
"Although you may not be able to protect me now, it doesn't mean you won't be able to in the future. If you can join this team, even if the four of you can't protect me in the future, I can guarantee that your team will definitely be able to! This is a new type of team beyond your understanding, so whether you want to join this team and become stronger is your choice."
"Yes! Of course!"
After hearing Murong Xiao's words, the four of them got over the awkward hurdle without even thinking about it.
