CHAPTER 282: CHAPTER 263: I’LL TAKE THIS!

"Cheating, that Lone Wolf cheated, he used High Tier Skill Scrolls, it’s blatant cheating!"

At this moment, whether in the fifth-floor restaurant of Jinfuh Hotel or in the corridor outside the e-sports room, the air was filled with accusations of Lone Wolf cheating.

No one present could accept the result of Red Eyes’ death.

"So despicable, he even used scrolls twice, it’s utterly shameless!"

"I thought that Lone Wolf was impressive at first, but I didn’t expect him to be such a shameless person."

"I’m going to expose Lone Wolf’s despicable actions on the forum, Red Eyes’ death cannot go in vain."

"Yes, expose him!"

Seeing the passionate crowd, if not for his current special status, Ning Wenliang would have already joined them in cursing Lone Wolf’s despicable behavior.

Even Ning Wenliang, a ’latecomer’ player, knew that special tools couldn’t be used in the finals.

Especially those High Tier Skill Scrolls, they utterly disrupted the balance.

If this behavior were encouraged, future matches would just be people throwing money at buying High Tier Skill Scrolls.

After the continuous ranting about Lone Wolf’s despicable behavior, a very important question arose for everyone:

"So, who is the final winner in this match?"

As soon as this question was raised, someone blurted out:

"Of course, it’s Red Eyes. Can Lone Wolf’s cheating be considered a win?"

"Exactly, this behavior is too shameful."

This opinion was shared by almost the entire crowd here.

Of course, there were rational people analyzing:

"The final result might depend on whether they had any prior agreements."

But what the real situation was, no one knew.

Everyone could only keep their eyes on the big screen, waiting to see if there would indeed be a sixth extra match, then the result would be clear.

That would be a result everyone found hard to accept:

"A draw!"

Song Tianyang arrogantly said:

"From the start, you never said that tools weren’t allowed. Now you tell me it’s banned, what’s the reason in that?"

"The only possible result from this match is a draw."

Shen Yanhua pointed at Song Tianyang angrily:

"Using any tools in finals is absolutely prohibited, isn’t that common sense?"

"You broke the rules yourself, which means you lose, how can it be a draw? I’m not convinced!"

Jiang Zhenguo also expressed his dissatisfaction with Song Tianyang:

"Even I, an old man, understand such common sense, there’s no reason you wouldn’t, right?"

Guo Shaojie pointed at Song Tianyang with disdain and said:

"If skill scrolls could be used, do you believe I could take on that whole lot of people behind you?"

Being pointed at by Guo Shaojie, Shengshi’s group looked somewhat unnatural.

Although Guo Shaojie’s words were somewhat exaggerated, standing in front of the terrifying Fire King known for showy tricks, if they were to argue, it would be a clear mistake.

Even though they felt aggrieved, since they had taken Song Tianyang’s money, they could only hold their ground in silence.

And as the instigator of all this, Lone Wolf had already put his baseball cap back on, with a smirk of disdain permanently painted on his face.

To the surrounding arguments and criticisms, he remained unresponsive, as if it had nothing to do with him.

In the face of everyone’s attack, Song Tianyang maintained his arrogant stance, proudly saying:

"I say it’s a draw, if you’re not convinced, you can sue me later and see which law says it’s not allowed."

"But for now, I’m calling the shots here."

"You!"

Shen Yanhua looked at Song Tianyang with a disgusted expression like that of a petty person gaining an advantage:

"Shameless."

Song Tianyang merely let out a cold laugh at that:

"Since it’s a draw, the best solution is to hold an additional match."

Song Tianyang looked at Shen Yanhua:

"So, do you want another round?"

"Song! Tian! Yang!"

Shen Yanhua almost screamed out each word of Song Tianyang’s name with a face full of anger:

"How can you be so shameless?"

With a sneer of disdain, Song Tianyang said:

"As a businessman, I only acknowledge what’s clearly written in black and white."

"The so-called ’unspoken rules’ you mention aren’t legally protected."

"Now you either choose to admit defeat or continue playing."

"So, do you dare to go on?"

"You!"

Shen Yanhua, frustrated and speechless, was left pointing at Song Tianyang.

Just as Fang Zhengrong was about to step forward and let him continue, the door suddenly swung open:

"Play with him!"

As everyone looked on in astonishment, another anxious voice came from the side:

"Sir, please leave here, or I’ll have to call the police."

Ning Wenliang apologetically looked at everyone inside:

"This person insisted on coming over, I’m sorry, I’ll take him away now."

Shen Yanhua suddenly spoke:

"Wait a moment!"

"They’re all my friends, let them in."

Fang Zhengrong stood to the side with a smile, whispering:

"Great."

For some reason, when he saw the figure appearing at the door, Fang Zhengrong suddenly had a feeling: this farce seemed destined to end.

Throughout the past month or two of interactions, Lin Yi had subtly become a backbone for this small group.

It seemed that, whether in reality or in the game, as long as he was present, there was nothing he couldn’t resolve.

Sometimes they didn’t even realize it themselves, but their trust in Lin Yi even exceeded their trust in themselves.

As long as Lin Yi is around, he always inexplicably puts people’s minds at ease.

...

Ning Wenliang didn’t know Shen Yanhua; currently, in this place, Ning Wenliang only knew that somber-faced Song Tianyang and Jiang Zhenguo along with the Jiang Family members.

Perhaps having noticed the confusion on Ning Wenliang’s face, Jiang Zhenguo also spoke up:

"This is my son-in-law, his friends are my friends."

Hearing this, Ning Wenliang immediately responded, apologizing to Lin Yi and the others:

"I apologize for any offense earlier, please come inside, honored guests."

Jiang Zhenguo’s words sounded like a heavenly melody to Shen Yanhua’s ears, almost bringing him to tears with joy.

If today they could achieve victory and smoothly complete the engagement party.

Then this tumultuous engagement party would surely become part of the family’s history, recorded in the family annals.

Some were delighted while others were worried; Shen Yanhua was thrilled, but Song Tianyang’s face darkened further.

As Lin Yi and the others arrived, Shengshi behind Song Tianyang instinctively covered her face and whispered:

"This isn’t stirring up a hornet’s nest, it’s practically stirring up a dragon cave!"

They didn’t recognize Lin Yi, but recalling the previously seen figures stable as a mountain and strikingly handsome, like Red Eyes and others.

At this moment, the identity of Lin Yi’s group was almost obvious.

Moreover, whether it was Zhang Xinying, Zhan Tianpeng, or Wang Zixin, their images might not be exactly like those in the game.

But with a careful look, one could still discern a thing or two.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Song Tianyang felt uneasy and asked:

"Do you know them?"

...

Lin Yi didn’t mind the strange looks around him but directly approached Shen Yanhua enthusiastically:

"I heard today is your engagement party, please forgive our uninvited arrival, congratulations, congratulations."

Shen Yanhua gazed blankly at the handsome man in front of him, momentarily speechless and too excited to respond:

"Um, um~"

Seeing this, Lin Yi jokingly said:

"Don’t tell me you’re not welcoming us?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanhua quickly explained:

"No, no, no!"

"I’m just too excited."

"I’m thrilled that you could come, how could I not be welcome?"

Seeing Shen Yanhua’s anxious look, Lin Yi was immediately amused and said:

"Alright, no joking."

"I’ve heard about your situation."

Then Lin Yi asked for his opinion:

"How about I handle what’s next, is that okay with you?"

Shen Yanhua looked at the suddenly appearing man with surprise, not understanding what he meant.

Or why he suddenly came here.

At this time, Fang Zhengrong came to Shen Yanhua and whispered:

"Trust me, my boss can handle this well."

"Your boss?"

Shen Yanhua looked at Fang Zhengrong in astonishment, and out of trust for him, Shen Yanhua finally turned to Lin Yi and said:

"Okay, then I’ll leave it to you."

With Shen Yanhua’s permission, Lin Yi smiled:

"Rest assured, I guarantee you can take your little bride home today."

Then Lin Yi turned to where Song Tianyang stood, immediately locking onto the ’outstanding youth’ with an air of nobility:

"You’re Song Tianyang, young master Song, aren’t you?"

Song Tianyang eyed Lin Yi, narrowing his eyes slightly.

With the sharp intuition honed from years in the business world, even though this man seemed harmless, Song Tianyang felt a prickling sense of danger.

Just one look, and Song Tianyang realized this man was not simple.

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s question, Song Tianyang decided to strike first and directly threatened:

"I don’t care who you are, you’d better mind your own business, no one dares go against my Song Family in Yuanfeng City."

Then Song Tianyang pointed at Shen Yanhua:

"And you’d better think carefully if it’s worth offending my Song Family for such an ordinary person."

But no sooner had the words left his mouth when Ouyang Hao, picking his ear nonchalantly, walked out and said with disdain:

"Oh~ Song Family? Very impressive?"

Song Tianyang turned to Ouyang Hao, his face frosty, asking:

"Kid, what did you say?"

"Do you believe I won’t let you all leave this hotel today?"

"Do you believe I won’t immediately ruin your damn Song Family’s reputation?"

Guo Shaojie, filled with rage, roared at Song Tianyang.

A small third-rate group from a tiny city dared say such things in front of him, courting death.

Seeing both sides about to escalate into a commercial battle, Lin Yi immediately called out to stop them:

"All of you, shut up."

With Lin Yi’s shout, the unruly Ouyang Hao and the angry Guo Shaojie instantly quieted down.

Meanwhile, Song Tianyang pointed at them in shock and anger before finally looking at Lin Yi:

"Who are you people? What do you want?"

"Who we are isn’t important, you wouldn’t be interested anyway, so I won’t introduce myself."

Lin Yi said slowly:

"I heard you mentioned an additional match outside, right?"

Then Lin Yi pointed at himself:

"I’ll take this one."

After speaking, Lin Yi looked past Song Tianyang, and under the various suspicious gazes, he calmly asked:

"Who is Lone Wolf?"
