CHAPTER 148: CHAPTER 132 UNEXPECTED SURRENDER

Luoshen Guild’s Live Stream

A group of people watched as Luoshen and his team blocked a bridge in the video, discussing:

"What is Luoshen up to?"

"Looks like they’re planning to block someone, right?"

"Is Luoshen planning to grab some kills too?"

"No way? I saw the other guilds heading towards Heaven-Reaching Peak."

"Why not? A single kill is worth 10 Gold Coins! With Luoshen’s capability, wiping out a guild could easily earn a thousand Gold Coins. Might as well take it if they can."

"True, but I’m really curious which guild will be unlucky enough to meet them."

"Hehehe, no matter which guild it is, we’ll just watch the show."

Just then, someone keen-eyed noticed a figure appear in the video.

Before he could react, the screen filled with comments:

"Feng Hua!"

"It’s Feng Hua!"

"I see Feng Hua, guys."

"Feng Hua, my god!! Damn, it’s really them."

"Are we going to have a fierce showdown this early? So exciting!!!"

"Just came from the Feng Hua live stream, and wow, it’s really Feng Hua!"

...

"Feng Hua?"

Luoshen Liunian looked at Lin Yi with a smile and said:

"I thought you’d choose to take a detour, but I didn’t expect you to be even bolder than I imagined."

Luoshen Liunian stepped forward, not worried that Lin Yi would suddenly strike him down in a flash, and went directly up to Lin Yi,

"I’m curious, what gives you the confidence to oppose my hundred-strong Luoshen team?"

"Wanna hear the truth?"

Seeing the man who always puzzled him, Luoshen Liunian countered:

"Would you tell me?"

Lin Yi bluntly replied:

"I don’t sense any killing intent from you, so I think there’s another reason for your being here?"

For Luoshen Liunian, Lin Yi didn’t have much of an impression.

In the previous life, Luoshen was ranked as the second strongest guild in the national region.

Luoshen’s well-known ambition was to replace Shengshi Dynasty, taking the first rank in the national region.

Unfortunately, Luoshen Liunian’s wish remained unfulfilled up until Lin Yi’s rebirth.

The perpetual second was a nickname players privately used for Luoshen Guild before Lin Yi’s rebirth.

But unexpectedly, due to Lin Yi’s presence, this time Luoshen lived a rather "troublesome" life, with the guild ranking having dropped to fifth.

Even Famous Clan Eleven had surpassed them.

But is Luoshen really stuck like this?

Not entirely!

In Lin Yi’s view, Luoshen now is just a dragon stranded in shallow waters.

However, this is all for future context.

What’s more pressing now is: what’s he doing here?

Because Lin Yi had a vague feeling he seemed to be waiting for him?

But then, Luoshen Liunian’s words confirmed Lin Yi’s suspicion as he smiled and said:

"You’re right, I have no intention of being your enemy. I’m here waiting for you."

Lin Yi was surprised, he really was waiting for him.

"Waiting for me for what?"

Luoshen Liunian straightforwardly replied:

"Cooperation!"

Even before Lin Yi could ask, Luoshen Liunian explained:

"I’ll help you deal with Madman’s group and strive to get you to first place."

Hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but chuckle,

"You’ll help me take down Madman? Why does that sound like a joke to me."

As everyone knows, the Luoshen, Divine Hall, and Shengshi guilds are known as the most "ancient" three major guilds in the gaming realm.

No matter the game, these three guilds are like a three-nation stalemate.

They’re in a competition with each other. But when faced with a formidable opponent, they appear to form an alliance.

Probably, since Lin Yi entered the game, the first joke he heard from them was that Luoshen actually wants to help him against Divine Hall?

It sounded like one of three triplet brothers suddenly turned traitor, helping an outsider to deal with their own brother, unbelievable.

Lin Yi would rather believe it’s a trap against him than to think it’s genuine.

However, Luoshen Liunian’s sincerity at this moment made it difficult for Lin Yi to distinguish truth from falsehood.

"Honestly, saying it out loud, it’s not just you who doesn’t believe it, even I find it unbelievable."

Luoshen Liunian sighed, continuing:

"I don’t know if this decision is right or wrong, but my intuition tells me, you’re worth the gamble."

Looking at Luoshen Liunian, Lin Yi didn’t know what to say anymore.

"Then what do I need to give in return for your help in getting first place?"

Luoshen Liunian raised one finger, saying:

"A promise from you."

"Promise?"

Lin Yi was taken aback:

"What kind of promise."

Luoshen Liunian said:

"I hope that if I really do this, I can earn your trust in the future."

"Is it really that simple?"

The words left Lin Yi utterly surprised.

Luoshen Liunian smiled slightly and turned away, saying:

"Let’s go, from now on let Luoshen clear the path for you."

Then, Luoshen Liunian walked towards Luoshen Guild, addressing the confused guild members:

"From now on, we have only one objective."

All Luoshen members on the bridge looked blankly at their president, not understanding what he was playing at.

Weren’t they here to block Feng Hua?

Not only did they not fight, but it seemed like they had a pleasant conversation?

What’s going on here?

Under bewildered gazes, Luoshen Liunian said:

"From now on, Feng Hua will be our sole ally, his enemies are our enemies!"

Luoshen Liunian finished speaking, looking at the dazed faces seriously and loudly repeated:

"Did you hear that!"

Luoshen Demon Fiend was shocked as he looked at Luoshen Liunian, as this was something even Luoshen Demon Fiend wasn’t aware of.

Now that Luoshen Liunian had said it.

At first, Luoshen Demon Fiend thought he’d misheard.

Not until the second repeat did Luoshen Demon Fiend realize it wasn’t an illusion!

For the first time, the shock-struck Luoshen Demon Fiend snapped back into reality and loudly responded:

"Heard it!"

The hundred people brought by Luoshen Liunian were from the carefully selected elites within the Luoshen Guild.

It took them a moment to understand their president wasn’t joking.

Originally they came to block Feng Hua, but ended up forming an alliance with him.

The sudden drastic change naturally left them momentarily stunned.

However, once they realized it was all real, the blankness transformed into determination and they shouted along:

"Heard it!"

The shout left the others in awe.

Meanwhile, Luo Wushang, at the rear of the group, smiled inwardly.

Luoshen’s last-minute alignment seemed to prove that his choice wasn’t entirely worthless.

Luoshen Liunian waved at Lin Yi,

"Let’s go."

Saishical walked up to Lin Yi’s side, worriedly saying:

"Could there be a trap in this?"

But Lin Yi laughed and said:

"Whether there’s a trap or not, we’ll find out by going along, won’t we?"

With that, Lin Yi took the lead and walked over.

This scene left the live-stream viewers bewildered:

Feng Hua and Luoshen joining forces? What’s going on?

Unfortunately, the live-stream didn’t broadcast any sound, so players had to rely on guesses.

Meanwhile, at a certain point in the dense forest, Divine Hall Madman was leading Divine Hall’s members in a frenzied rush through the jungle:

"How far are we from Feng Hua?"

Divine Hall Six Paths glanced at the chat log and said:

"Based on the tracking sent by President Liunian, we should be there in less than ten minutes."

Upon hearing this, Divine Hall Madman said, "You have Liunian send a tracking update every minute, everyone else hurry up."

Racing through the forest, Divine Hall Madman’s face was twisted with a sinister grin:

"Feng Hua, you won’t escape me this time!"

...

Today’s update is complete.
