Chapter 1653: Chapter 1653
Trent Webb spent the whole night earnestly persuading Yusuf Zuck, and before dawn, Yusuf finally reluctantly agreed to Trent’s request!
And the request was for the Webb Clan to send ten people to follow him and become his followers. These followers would not return to the Webb Family in the future, but would become Yusuf Zuck’s servants; wherever Yusuf went, they would follow.
Of course, the reason Yusuf agreed to Trent Webb was twofold: Trent was incredibly persistent and also pitiable, and the overall environment in the Shenjie was such that every famous or renowned figure needed to have countless followers to manage everything for them.
Take for example a Duke or a Lord, these big figures not only have servants but also countless advisors, guest elders, and retainers. It’s safe to say that after becoming famous, they form a team of their own, filled with various talents.
This is the environment in Shenjie. Here, a single tree does not make a forest, and only by banding together can one survive.
Trent Webb asked Yusuf to wait three days, as three days was all it would take.
And after three days, not only had he selected ten of the most intelligent and best-rooted clan members, but he also arranged for Yusuf a new identity waist plaque.
It’s unclear how he managed to get this waist badge, and Yusuf, previously known as Hudson Zuck, now had his name changed to Jordan Webb!
Yusuf didn’t dwell much on this; it was merely a name, a code. Even Hudson Zuck was a pseudonym, so Jordan Webb was fine too.
However, what gave Yusuf a headache was that Old Webb included three women among the ten followers, and they were all as beautiful as flowers!
Old Webb wasn’t boasting before; the Webb Family relied on the snowy mountains, a place of outstanding people and favorable terrain. Hence, all the Webb men were strong and handsome, and the Webb daughters were tall, with fair skin and stunning beauty!
It could be said that any one of the Webb daughters could be a model, especially because of their skin, which was smooth and flawless.
Yusuf negotiated with Trent Webb, not wanting women because they were troublesome. However, Trent Webb persuaded him otherwise, saying that women were meticulous, could handle some trivial matters well, and sometimes were even more useful than men. Moreover, the three women he selected were the smartest and most beautiful in the clan!
Yusuf couldn’t out-talk Trent Webb, so he relented.
Three days later, Yusuf set off, accompanied by ten Webb clan members with their travel bags.
When they left the camp, everyone in the camp came to see them off, and the ten of them knelt outside the camp, kowtowing three times!
"It’s good to know filial piety!" Yusuf was very satisfied with these ten people. Seeing their red-rimmed eyes and reluctant expressions, he knew these people were the purest.
However, what surprised Yusuf was that shortly after setting off, these ten quickly assumed their roles. Not only did they treat Yusuf with utmost respect, calling him ’Young Master,’ but three of them guarded him with swords, both in front and behind!
Although Yusuf didn’t need their protection, their ability to assume their roles so quickly still provided reassurance and comfort.
"Young Master, my name is Joy Webb." The person walking beside Yusuf was a young man, appearing to be under twenty years old!
"I know, you’re the heir to the next clan leader of the Webb Family. Your grandfather is truly courageous to let you out!" Yusuf lamented that Trent Webb was placing a big gamble!
"Guarding the mountains, one will never achieve greatness and will live a life in obscurity. But following you, Young Master, our sky will be broader!" Joy Webb was full of spirit. After all, he was only twenty, in the impulsive days of youth, imagining his future in the Divine World Continent with his territory!
"Young Master, my name is Ellen Webb." A girl gracefully walked to Yusuf’s side and slightly bowed to him.
"Yes, noted, Ellen, Kyla, and Sarah!" Yusuf memorized the images of the three girls. Ellen was the tallest, over 1.75 meters.
Kyla had a red birthmark under her neck, while Sarah had a large chest; among the three, Ellen and Kyla’s chests were normal, but Sarah’s chest rose high like two big buns!
The other men also introduced themselves. Some were in their thirties, some in their forties, all were elite of the clan.
However, to put it bluntly, they were only the elites of the Webb Clan, and frankly, they were of no use!
"Young Master, there’s a market town ahead, and there are carriages in the town. We can hire a carriage then, and after reaching the Pavilion Mansion, there’ll be a flying treasure ship. However, although we brought some funds, after taking the flying treasure ship once, we might not even have enough for food!" Joy Webb, knowing Yusuf knew nothing, took the initiative to explain!
"I haven’t taken a flying treasure ship yet!" Sarah interjected, "I heard that flying treasure ships travel ten thousand miles a day, mist-floating, with great views of the mountains and rivers from the ship!"
"Sarah, hush!" Ellen gently reprimanded Sarah. Their identities were different now, and everything had to be according to the wishes of Hudson, no, Jordan Webb. If Jordan Webb didn’t allow speaking, they shouldn’t speak.
They were trained by the clan leader for three days and nights on the rules, without rest, just to transform their roles from free individuals to loyal followers!
Of course, they also carried another secret mission from the clan leader: if they could win over Jordan Webb, do so, but don’t rush it!
"Young Master, Sarah was wrong!" Sarah stuck out her tongue, continually apologizing.
"It’s okay; it’s nice to have someone to chat with. Otherwise, if you all turn into lifeless statues, what fun is there in life? So, in the future, speak your mind as you wish!"
"In the days when I was in the Lower Realm, I too had countless followers, who treated me like a brother, and we’d occasionally have fun skirmishes, as I treated them like family, and they treated me the same. I hope the same with you; I took you ten out, bearing not only your personal safety but your future achievements, so I hope we are united. If you have any ideas, you can share with me!"
"Yes, Young Master!" Everyone nodded.
Then Joy Webb said, "Our Webb Family camp is too remote, clan members only know about the prosperity outside, so we yearn for it, myself included. But Young Master, where are we headed?" Updates are released by novelꞁire.net
"To earn money, eat, and ride the treasure ships, of course! You can’t even afford a ship, so the urgent thing is to make some money, then we can tour the mountains and waters!"
"Tour the mountains and waters?" Everyone was dumbfounded, thinking that the Young Master wouldn’t pursue great achievements but only wanted to tour the mountains and waters?
"Yes, touring the mountains and waters, enjoying life!" Yusuf laughed heartily, truthfully, he hadn’t made up his mind about whether to join the Yin Yang Academy in the Shenjie, and he had no grudges or enemies here. The only thing he wanted was to improve his cultivation level, find the Faith Divine Stone, and understand himself!
With just these few targets, the main goal was to understand himself, and if he couldn’t at present, what else was there to do if not touring the mountains and waters?
