Gu Hansha's move was already very obvious, but when he did this, all the elders didn't dare to open their mouths to stop it, because they knew that if it weren't for this young man today, I was afraid that the entire Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group would be wiped out.

Moreover, having a powerhouse comparable to the fivefold spirit vein realm joining, it will greatly improve the strength of the mercenary group.

However, to their surprise, Yang Ran did not sit down, he turned his head to look at Gu Qingli who was not far away, and said softly: "You come here." ”

"Me?" Gu Qingli was stunned, and before she could react, she was pulled by Yang Ran and sat on the chair.

Seeing Yang Ran's move, the faces of many elders, even Gu Hansha, changed, and they seemed to have guessed something.

"Captain Gu Hansha, elders, you all sit down. Yang Ran spoke, and his voice was loud and loud: "After eliminating the Nanban mercenary group this time, Yang Ran will not stay in the mercenary group, so there will be no place for me at this round table." ”

Gu Qingli's face changed, and she turned a lot paler in an instant, and she suddenly remembered that Yang Ran had said that she didn't care about this status in the past, but today, it was really the case.

"Brother Yang Ran, are you still ...... about what happened before" Gu Hansha obviously didn't expect Yang Ran's refusal, and was a little at a loss.

Yang Ran shook his head: "Before leaving, Yang Ran has something to make clear. ”

The entire chamber fell silent, and no one spoke to stop it.

Yang Ran looked at Gu Qingli, and there was a hint of softness in his eyes: "I believe you all know everything that happened a few months ago, and I don't want to mention it again, I just want to tell you that the reason why I will help you today is not because of the mercenary agreement, but because of her! Therefore, you don't have to thank me, because all this I did was just for her." ”

"In other words, it wasn't me who saved the entire mercenary group this time, but Miss Gu Qingli!"

Everyone's faces changed, but soon Yang Ran's voice sounded again: "After this battle, Gu Changkong has been cleared, and the mercenary group has also vacated the position of deputy head of the regiment, right, Gu Hansha, head of the group?"

"Yes. Gu Hansha was stunned for a moment, and then nodded solemnly.

"That's good!" Yang Ran's tone seemed to be a little sharper, so that the elders whose faces were still a little changed all bowed their heads, he looked at Gu Qingli, and said in a deep voice: "From today on, the position of deputy head will be replaced by Gu Qingli, I don't know what your opinions are?"

The chamber fell silent.

"Brother Yang Ran, with your strength, if you serve as the deputy head of the regiment, we naturally have no objections, old man, but Qingli is still young, and his cultivation is not enough, I am afraid that it will cause some objections from the bottom, and I am worried that it will be difficult to suppress those subordinates. After a moment of silence, an elder finally stood up and spoke cautiously.

Hearing this, Yang Ran frowned, and his gaze swept over the many elders: "You think the same way, right?"

Everyone was still silent, but the expression on their faces had already given the answer.

"Brother Yang Ran, this matter will be discussed from now on, after all, Qingli is too young. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Gu Hansha hurriedly came out to ease up, and at this moment, Gu Qingli also pulled Yang Ran's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Forget it, I'm fine now." ”

"It's good?" Yang Ran sneered: "If it weren't for these things happening, I'm afraid you would have been forced to marry Gu Qingfeng by now." ”

This is also what Yang Ran is worried about, although Gu Qingli is Gu Hansha's adopted daughter, she does not have real power in the mercenary group, once he leaves, if an accident happens, he may be sacrificed again at any time.

Gu Qingli's face changed slightly, although Yang Ran's words were reproachful, but she was a little more moved in her heart, this feeling of being cared for had not appeared for a long time.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll take care of it. Yang Ran said, turning to face everyone, his eyes became fierce at this moment, and many elders did not dare to look at him, and lowered their heads one after another.

"I will definitely not give in to Gu Qingli's appointment as the deputy head of the regiment! Moreover, when I came here today, Yang Ran wanted to inform the elders of something, and at the same time asked for the consent of the head of Gu Hansha, maybe after listening to my request, your views on Gu Qingli's appointment as the deputy head of the regiment will change a little. ”

Hearing the first half of the sentence, everyone was still worried about Yang Ran's toughness, but the latter words made them a little more confused, Gu Hansha was even more stunned, and arched his hand: "Brother Yang Ran, please tell me if there is anything." ”

Yang Ran turned his head to look at Gu Qingli, who also happened to look up at him.

Gu Qingli's heart trembled inexplicably, because in these pair of sea-black pupils, she really saw endless tenderness and pity for the first time.

For some reason, Gu Qingli suddenly felt that her heart was beating fast, and at this moment, from Yang Ran's mouth, she spit out a sentence that made everyone in the council hall sluggish and made Gu Qingli remember it for the rest of her life-

"When I, Yang Ran, come back from the imperial capital, I will marry Miss Gu Qingli as my wife, and make an oath again to protect her for the rest of my life, if anyone dares to hurt her, then even if I chase him to the ends of the earth, I Yang Ran will definitely break him into pieces, and he will never die!"

......

Time passed like water, and before I knew it, another five days had passed.

Although the earth-shattering battle has long since ended, in the past five days, the atmosphere of the entire Desert Void City has not been buffered in the slightest, and amazing rumors have been circulating: the Southern Barbarian Mercenary Group has been completely removed from the Desert Void City, the traitor Gu Changkong and others of the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group have been executed in public, and the mysterious boy who saved the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group by himself has suddenly disappeared, etc., all of which undoubtedly set off waves after the war.

However, what alarmed the entire Desert Void City the most was the news that came from the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group two days ago: the position of the deputy head of the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group will be Gu Hansha's adopted daughter, Gu Qingli!

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a shock in the entire Desert Void City, of course, more doubts.

Although Gu Qingli is Gu Hansha's adopted daughter and has a noble status, she is young and only has the cultivation of the peak of the Yuan Dan Realm, not to mention that above her, the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group still has many respected seniors, who have made countless contributions to the mercenary group for decades, how can she be the second in command of the first force in Desert Void City?

For a while, this news became the biggest focus of discussion in Desert Void City.

However, in response to this kind of questioning, the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group gave a tough counterattack, not only arresting and severely punishing many people who spread rumors, but even the head of the regiment, Gu Hansha, the second elder and other high-ranking and powerful elders came forward to support Gu Qingli.

So, under this kind of suppression, those doubts gradually disappeared, after all, after destroying the Nanban Mercenary Group, the Wolf Tooth Mercenary Group has become the only overlord in the city, and even if the other forces in the city are still confused, they dare not discuss this matter anymore.
