Chapter 689: Jackdaw’s Determination! (1/2)

Jackdaw’s icy tone made the noisy crowd quiet down. Most instantly revealed displeased expressions. If it weren’t for Jackdaw’s identity, a fight would have started.

“Wanting big benefits but scared of death. No wonder you can only remain as trash at the bottom!”

Jackdaw’s sharp change of attitude triggered quite a number of people and curses started spewing. He only snorted coldly and the Frost Crow King on his shoulder flew out, landing on the man who was cursing the loudest.

There was no chance to respond as the poor guy was frozen into an ice sculpture. It didn’t end there as the crow pecked on the head, and the next second, the sculpture shattered into pieces…

Murder! Jackdaw had just killed a person right in front of so many people!

However, his actions shut everyone’s mouth. The cursing people immediately shut up, fearing that they would become the next ice sculpture. In the anxious atmosphere, no one dared to say a word.

“As expected of trash. Not cursing anymore?” Jackdaw scanned the crowd with a sneer to see everyone evaded his eyes. “This will be my warning to you all. Except for those who are going to take part in the crusade against that beast, no one else gets their hands on the origin mine, not even a shard! Those willing to participate, come here to sign up before nine tomorrow evening. We will set out early in the morning the day after tomorrow.”

Jackdaw announced domineeringly, obviously not seeking the agreement of the crowd.

“By the way, let me warn some people, don’t even think about being fishermen. If you really annoy me, I don’t mind summoning the rest of the Jackdaw group!”

Upon finishing, Jackdaw left with his people. The irritated crowd also bitterly scattered.

Bai Xiaofei and Han San’s group were no exception. It was not a wise choice to remain there and stand out from the rest.

“Tch, did you see his aura? That’s what men should have!” Han San sincerely exclaimed on the way back, his voice full of yearning instead of resentment.

He envied and also strived for such might!

“Everyone must have their own way. He is the head of his mercenary group and we are wanderers. We may not be inferior to him, Brother Han should not undermine yourself.” Bai Xiaofei might be the only one who wasn’t affected by Jackdaw’s dominance. He was contemplating another problem.

“Huh? Why do I feel like you are saying the grapes are sour because you don’t get to eat them, Lil’ Brother Feng? But then again, what are you going to do? Are you following Jackdaw?” Han San looked at Bai Xiaofei ponderingly with a hint of expectation.

Therefore, Han San wanted to know what Bai Xiaofei was planning. At a time like this, it always saved the most effort to refer to other people’s ideas.

“Me? I’m not in a hurry, I’ll consider it for a while first,” Bai Xiaofei glossed over it with a smile.

Of course he was going!

However, he certainly would never follow Jackdaw’s butt, in which case not only would he be subjected to other’s orders, but also losing his initiative, and thus unable to display his advantage.

“It’s getting late. Let’s get together another day, Lil’ Brother Feng. We will buy you a drink then, can’t let you spend any more money!” Han San said goodbye upon returning to the inn.

Bai Xiaofei naturally would not keep him. He was not idle and Han San had no more useful information for him.
