Sima Shang also raised his head to look at Zhao Feng.
"General Li," Zhao Feng began with a smile, "the world is vast. It's not just the Divine Continent. Would you truly be content to gallop across the Divine Continent, without ever wishing to venture beyond it?"
"What do you mean by that?" Li Mu asked with a faint smile. "You're not thinking of establishing your own faction, are you?"
"Establishing my own faction is out of the question," Zhao Feng replied. "But it is wise to plan for a rainy day. Who can say for certain what the future holds? As long as you serve me, I can assure you that I will never treat you two poorly and will always allow you to utilize your talents to the fullest." Zhao Feng stood and bowed with clasped hands to the two men, his sincerity evident.
Li Mu slowly rose to his feet. "If we pledge our loyalty, what can you offer us?"
Zhao Feng smiled and clapped his hands. "Zhang Ming."
