The one laughing was the senior with the blue stripe over his level eight bronze badge.
He looked at Zhao Luo and Senior Cutie in a funny way.
"I like you two."
The senior confessed to them in a very serious manner.
Zhao Luo trembled since Senior Cutie was already a handful for him.
'I don't want to be around another one like him.'
Zhao Luo complained while barely holding back his scream.
"Senior, I wo-"
.
"I know. I won't make any empty promises to you or the others. But whoever joins my group gets treated fairly no matter the odds."
The senior told Zhao Luo and the others with a smile.
'He is different.'
Zhao Luo thought as he looked at the Senior who gave off a different feeling than the other three.
"Senior Balue."
A familiar voice was heard and the senior who was standing in front of Zhao Luo and the others turned towards the direction of the voice.
Zhao Luo and his brother's disciples were the same too. They knew who the voice belonged to.
An aggressive look appeared on Zhao Luo's face as he glared at the golden-haired disciple walking towards them.
"Mo Suo."
Zhao Luo shouted at him but before he could move towards him, Senior Cutie held him back.
"Big Bean is with him too."
Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo but how could Zhao Luo miss that.
Big Bean was walking beside Mo Suo too as he made his way towards them along with him.
"Greetings."
Mo Suo bowed his head as he looked towards them.
His arrogance had vanished into thin air after the beating Zhao Luo had given him.
"Big Bean, welcome back."
Si Chen and even the drunk Feng Ma were glad to see Big Bean.
"Why are you with him?"
Senior Cutie asked Big Bean.
It was clear that there was animosity between the two, Big Bean and Mo Suo since Big Bean had asked Zhao Luo and the others to save Little Bean.
But, now after disappearing for two days, he was with Mo Suo, which didn't sit right with the others.
"Did he threaten you?"
Zhao Luo directly questioned Big Bean without twisting his words. He didn't care about giving face to Mo Suo or the Royal Mo Family.
"It's not like that. He...Brother Mo Suo has changed. He was actually helping Little Bean without me knowing. Not only that, but he has also freed her. She doesn't have to work for the Mo Family anymore."
Big Bean told Zhao Luo but Senior Cutie, Feng Ma, and Si Chen were also listening to it closely.
Pi Hao was the only one who didn't know where their grudge with Mo Suo was coming from so he kept quiet.
'It wasn't Mo Suo who changed but Big Bean learned the truth just now. But what about the assassins?'
Zhao Luo wondered as he looked at Mo Suo as he tried to see through him but there was nothing on Mo Suo's expressionless face.
Zhao Luo took a few steps towards Mo Suo and brought his face closer to him.
"What about the guards?"
Zhao Luo questioned him while whispering into his ears.
"What guards?"
Mo Suo's expression changed as bewilderment covered his face and with raised brows, he questioned Zhao Luo.
'So, he doesn't know. Or, is he pretending to not know?'
Zhao Luo still couldn't completely believe the fact that Mo Suo who wanted to kill him in their last fight, had changed over two nights.
'But if Big Bean is also saying it then I can let it go.'
Zhao Luo looked at Mo Suo right in his eyes and knew that he had some questions.
'He may really not know about the guards sent after me.'
"It's okay. I won't pursue the matter anymore."
Zhao Luo patted Mo Suo's shoulder while saying.
'Tap.'
Mo Suo instantly grabbed his arm and pushed it away.
"I am the one who lost. Not you. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."
Mo Suo said to Zhao Luo before moving on to the Senior who had been enjoying this exchange between Zhao Luo and Mo Suo.
"What can I, Chi Balue help the third prince with?"
The level eight bronze rank senior of this last group was none other than Chi Balue who was one of the most famous disciples of the inner hall.
"Senior, I would like to join your group!"
Mo Suo told Chi Balue whose eyes widened as if he was going to jump like a frog any instant now.
"You want to join Deep Sea Group? Why?"
Chi Balue was stupefied for some reason so he questioned Mo Suo who looked determined to join his group right away.
"I can only get what I want in your 'Deep Sea Group' so please let me join."
The once arrogant ex-king of the outer hall was literally a 'no' away from going on his knees.
This shocked not only Zhao Luo but also the others as they looked at Mo Suo who seemed like a different person altogether.
"If you say so."
Chi Balue took out a blue stripe and attached it over Mo Suo's level one bronze badge.
"Welcome to our Deep Sea Group, Junior."
The disciples behind Chi Balue said to Mo Suo in a loud voice and he nodded at them before giving a fist palm salute.
Chi Balue moved past Mo Suo and walked to Zhao Luo.
"Think about it, Junior Brother."
Chi Balue left these words with Zhao Luo before leaving with his subordinates.
"Take care, Big Bean."
Mo Suo said his farewell to Big Bean before glancing at Zhao Luo as he joined Chi Balue and left.
"Let's go."
Zhao Luo said to them as he also turned around.
As Zhao Luo walked towards the inner part of the entrance zone, he looked around and found many seniors at different levels.
'This is the best place to get information.'
Zhao Luo decided as this would be the start of their plan.
