"Why aren't you saying anything?" Hell Fiend asked sternly when he saw Ordinary Stranger and the others remain silent.
However, Hell Fiend's words did not cause Ordinary Stranger and the others to speak. Instead, they lowered their heads even more, their expressions turning gloomy as they hesitated to speak.
"Have you completed the mission or not? Why are all of you mute? "Hell Fiend asked curiously.
Regardless of whether it was Ordinary Stranger or Thunder Tiger, both of them were normally very talkative. Yet, at this moment, neither of them spoke a single word. How could this not be strange?
After a moment of silence, the assassin Quirrell finally stood up and said in a low voice, "We did not complete the mission."
"You didn't complete the mission?" Hell Fiend's expression froze for a moment. He then looked at Quirrell and said in a deep voice, "Just what happened? Explain it clearly."
Quirrell and Ordinary Stranger explained the whole story to Hell Fiend.
Hell Fiend fell silent after hearing Shi Feng's explanation.
Meanwhile, Praying Lotus, the beautiful Level 39 Oracle in white sacred robes, revealed a shocked expression as well.
The reason why Ordinary Stranger was shocked was not because of the deaths of Quirrell and the others. Instead, it was because of the black-robed man who had suddenly appeared. Although Ordinary Stranger had guessed that the black-robed man was the Sword King Hei Yan, Quirrell had seen the black-robed man's true appearance. Hence, he was 100% sure that this was Ye Feng's doing.
Ye Feng had long since entered the list of the various Super Guilds and super-first-rate Guilds. Needless to say, he was ridiculously strong. Even if Hell Fiend were to personally take him on, the outcome of the battle would be difficult to predict. In fact, Hell Fiend might even lose.
Therefore, it was not a big deal for Quirrell and the others to be killed by Ye Feng.
At most, they could only blame Quirrell and the others for being unlucky. However, that was not the case at all. This was the reason why Hell Fiend and the others felt such headaches.
The operation of the Falcon Legion had always been a secret. Even Hell Fiend did not know about it. Only the twenty members of the legion knew about it. Hence, before they took action, the Ling YI Society had no way of knowing anything about it. Moreover, they had even used Soul Shackle when they took action. It was impossible for the target of the ambush to leak any information, unless the target died and went offline to notify the other party.
It was obviously impossible for Ye Feng to appear by chance.
After all, Ye Feng's Mount had roamed around White River City for a long time, causing a huge commotion in the city. When Quirrell and the others took action, Ye Feng should still be in White River City. Hence, Ye Feng's appearance in the Crystal Forest was not a coincidence. Rather, after finding out about the situation, he took the initiative to rush over to provide reinforcements.
However, how far was the Crystal Forest from White River City?
Even if they had mounts, by the time Ye Feng arrived, the Falcon Legion would have finished off everyone.
But that was not the case.
Not only had Ye Feng killed everyone from the Falcon Legion, but he had also saved his companions. His speed was astonishing.
If that happened, dealing with the members of the Ling YI Society in the future would become much more troublesome. If they were careless, they would lose their lives. Unless they dispatched a team capable of annihilating apex experts, however, these experts had their own matters to attend to every day. How could they possibly have the time to deal with the small fries of the Ling YI Society?
Moreover, even if he did so, he would only become a laughingstock for the other Super Guilds.
"No wonder even the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion can't deal with Ling Yi. It turns out that she has such a trick up her sleeve. Good, very good!" The corner of Hell Fiend's mouth twitched. Ling Yi's move had ruined most of his plans. His heart was filled with an indescribable rage.
"Hell Fiend, are we still going to meet Hei Yan?" Oracle Praying Lotus asked.
The previous plan was to teach Ling Yi a lesson and let the Ling YI Society know how powerful they were. Now that Falcon and the others had failed, the deterrence effect was naturally gone.
"Go, Sinned Heart wants that money! Don't even think about it! " Hell Fiend said, a bloody glint flashing in his eyes. His tone was firm as he continued, "Since this method won't work, we can only use force. I refuse to believe that an upstart Guild without any backing will not yield!"
Saying so, Hell Fiend had Ordinary Stranger contact the Ling YI Society.
…
White River City's Teleportation Hall: Several flashes of light suddenly appeared. Shifeng and the others had returned to White River City.
"What a pity. It would be great if we could grind for a few more hours," Blue Bamboo lamented as she looked at her level.
Due to the Shifeng, their leveling speed was indescribably fast.
With two Personal Guards capable of tanking Tier 3 Great Lords, clearing out the Chieftains and Lords was a piece of cake. The Crystal Wolves they encountered along the way also died in droves. Her EXP bar also skyrocketed. Currently, she was only 5% away from reaching Level 40.
At most, she could reach Level 40 in an hour.
Level 40 was a watershed. Along the way, Blue Bamboo stared longingly at the Demonic Flame Tiger beside Shifeng. If not for the fact that she had yet to reach Level 40 and could not use a Mount, she would have long since mounted the Demonic Flame Tiger.
In God's Domain, Mounts could normally accommodate two people. If the Mount's rank was high enough, it could even accommodate three people. The Demonic Flame Tiger, for example, was a Dark-Gold Mount. It could accommodate a maximum of three people. However, there was a condition: the rider had to be Level 40 or above.
At this time, Shifeng summoned the Demonic Flame Tiger.
With its massive figure and handsome appearance, the Demonic Flame Tiger immediately became the center of attention on the street.
"I still have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first. If you encounter any quests you can't complete, you can contact me or Shiuse Qiangwei directly," Shifeng said as he leaped onto his Mount. He then patted the Demonic Flame Tiger and rode towards Candlelight.
Although Shifeng had left, the players on the street shifted their gazes towards Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo.
"Aren't those two beauties members of the Ling YI Society?"
"I saw them talking to that Mount player before. Could that Mount expert be one of Ling Yi's men?"
…
Everyone's imaginations began to run wild.
When many female players saw Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo, jealousy and envy flashed in their eyes. Normally, they were acquainted with plenty of experts. However, compared to the Mount before them, these experts were nothing. Yet, Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo actually knew each other.
"It would be great if I could get my hands on a Mount as handsome as Big Brother Ye Feng's. Those classmates would definitely die of envy," Blue Bamboo said enviously as she watched the Shifeng leave.
However, Thoughtful Rain, who stood beside Blue Bamboo, did not share the same thoughts. Instead, she focused on increasing her strength.
The Shifeng's battle had truly shocked her. She had never imagined that there would be such a massive gap between players.
Candlelight, second-floor reception room:
"Hell Fiend, are you really going to do that?" Praying Lotus asked, frowning. "We will suffer significant losses as well."
"I've already said that I won't let Sinned Heart get his hands on that money. If Zero Wing is determined to do so, then I'll have no choice but to teach them the meaning of regret. Is it worth it to offend me for Sinned Heart's sake?" Hell Fiend sneered, nodding.
While Hell Fiend and Praying Lotus waited quietly, the doors to the reception room opened.
The Shifeng disguised as Hei Yan approached Hell Fiend and Praying Lotus.
