1807 Plotting Against Someone They Shouldn’t Have (2)
There were a few rows of very heavy bookshelves in the room with a lot of information piled on them. Yun Feng glanced at them briefly and took out some of them to read carefully. The Mercenary Union had information about all the mercenary groups in the few empires, sorted them into details and recorded the size, number and changes of the mercenary groups one by one.
While Yun Feng was reading attentively, rapid footsteps were rushing over from outside. A tall and sturdy figure was so anxious that he was a bit reckless. He suddenly pushed the door open and a face full of surprise and excitement stuck in. “My daughter!”
Yun Feng chuckled. She was standing on one side of the bookshelf at this moment. Zhan Li couldn’t see her from the door and she put the documents back leisurely. Yun Feng heard Zhan Li’s voice. “Those bastards dared to fool me!”
The smile in Yun Feng’s eyes became deeper. She turned around and walked out from the side of the bookshelf. She happened to see Zhan Li’s disappointed look. Yun Feng said, “Father.”
Zhan Li was stunned! He turned his head and saw a completely unfamiliar person standing there, calling him father with a smile. Zhan Li blinked a few times and suddenly smiled. He strode towards Yun Feng and messed up Yun Feng’s hair with his big hand. “Kid, I almost didn’t recognize you.”
Yun Feng chuckled and quickly pulled his big hand. Zhan Li sized Yun Feng up a few times. “Did you miss your father?”
Yun Feng nodded. Even though she didn’t think about him all the time, she had never forgotten her godfather, Zhan Li. Zhan Li burst into laughter with a satisfied look. “My good daughter, I miss you too! It’s been so many years. Why didn’t you contact me?”
Yun Feng raised the corners of her mouth. If it was convenient for her to contact him, she would certainly. The key was that one thing after another, she didn’t have the energy to think about anything else anymore. Yun Feng also sized up Zhan Li. It had been so many years. He hadn’t changed, but there was a hint of vicissitudes of life at the corners of his eyes.
“Kid, you’ve grown a bit taller and you’re even prettier than before! As expected of my daughter!” Zhan Li burst into laughter and completely treated Yun Feng as his own. The corners of Yun Feng’s mouth twitched and she took it as tacit agreement. Zhan Li had been calling himself her father since the beginning. Yun Jing was also embarrassed for a while back then.
“Right, kid, do you know Yan Ming?”
Yun Feng nodded and said with a smile, “He’s already here?”
Zhan Li took a deep breath. “That kid said he’s your friend. I was skeptical. It seems that you really know him. Did you recommend him to this position?”
Yun Feng chuckled. “Yan Ming has the ability. He’ll manage the East and West Alliance very well.”
“Haha! You’re indeed the same as me! Why don’t you let this kid take care of the Mercenary Union too?”
Yun Feng smiled. Yan Ming probably wouldn’t agree. Even though he had this ambition, he also understood that there were a lot of difficulties in managing the Mercenary Union.
“If that’s the case, the Mercenary Union will certainly participate in the East and West Alliance. I’ll definitely help you!” Zhan Li rubbed Yun Feng’s hair with his big hand. Yun Feng only felt warm in her heart. There were too many people helping her along the way. If it weren’t for them, she wouldn’t have come to this point today. No matter how powerful she was, she couldn’t save this world alone. Other people must help her.
“Thank you, Godfather.”
“Kid, why are you so polite with me?” Zhan Li burst into laughter. He was in a good mood after seeing Yun Feng! There was a smile on his face that couldn’t be stopped. “You came here in person. Do you need help? Just tell me! I’ll definitely help you if I can!”
Yun Feng nodded. “There’s indeed something I need your help with. Do you know Mo Yuanbu?”
Zhan Li frowned. “Did this person make things difficult for you?”
Yun Feng shook her head. “That’s not it. I just want to find him. There are some things I need to ask him in person.”
“He’s a mercenary of the Mercenary Union?” Zhan Li frowned. Yun Feng shook her head again. “He’s not from the Mercenary Union, but he has a certain connection with the Mercenary Union. It’s just that a long time ago, when the Red Maple Mercenary Team was established.”
“When the Red Maple Mercenary Team was established?” Zhan Li was surprised. Then, he frowned again. “So, it was before I became the president.”
That was indeed the case. Yun Feng’s heart sank slightly. It would be fine if there were records of Mo Yuanbu, but if there weren’t, there would be no information at all.
“The previous president, the old man, is already gone. The person you’re talking about is the founder of the Red Maple Mercenary Team?”
“That’s right. He’s also Yun Lan’s best friend.”
“Yun Lan? The summoner of the Yun family?” Zhan Li was surprised. “Yun Lan is still alive?”
Yun Feng smiled wryly. Was he still alive? He was just a wisp of soul that could dissipate at any time. Seeing Yun Feng’s expression, Zhan Li realized that he had said something wrong. “When I was young, I heard about Yun Lan. He’s an impressive summoner. To be able to become his best friend, this Mo Yuanbu is also an impressive person.”
“I think so too. Senior Mo has a deep relationship with the Yun family. There are some things that only he can tell me.”
“In that case, we can only check the files left by the Mercenary Union in the past.” Zhan Li looked at a few bookshelves and walked over. Yun Feng followed him. “Let me see… It’s here!” Zhan Li’s eyes brightened. He took out a few folders and handed them to Yun Feng. “Let’s start from here.”
There was a lot of information and they couldn’t finish reading it in a short period of time. After spending a few days, their efforts finally paid off and they found some information about the situation when the Red Maple Mercenary Union was established back then. When every mercenary group joined the Mercenary Union, it had to be recorded, including the name of the mercenary group, the badge, the number of people and the most important Commander.
The Commander of the Red Maple Mercenary Team at that time only had one name, Mo Yuanbu. When she saw this name, Yun Feng’s heart couldn’t help but heat up. She didn’t see the name of her ancestor, Yun Lan. Her ancestor was even more unwilling to be restrained than Senior Mo. He didn’t even have to list his name. Senior Mo probably didn’t want to use his name back then.
“At that time, the Red Maple Mercenary Team only had a single digit number of members. This Commander didn’t seem to have appeared again. However, the development of the Red Maple Mercenary Team is truly in full swing right now.” Zhan Li chuckled and glanced at Yun Feng proudly. It was all thanks to her daughter, or the Red Maple Mercenary Team wouldn’t be where they were today!
