Inside the alternate dimension of Group 1.
Huo Ling and the young girl suddenly appeared in the living room.
“Chen Yu, your ability is good, but it makes me dizzy and want to puke.”
Huo Ling squatted down, hugging a trash can, and vomited profusely.
The girl pursed her lips and argued, “You’re just being dramatic. Why am I fine?”
Huo Ling ignored her, still clutching the trash can and vomiting.
At that moment, the door suddenly opened.
Huo Ling had just finished vomiting and stood up to see his partner, whom he hadn’t seen in a week.
“Ah Luo, you’re back.”
Comrade Huo waved enthusiastically. Ye Shuangluo glanced at him, then at the girl beside him, and nodded slightly.
The girl’s eyes lit up when she saw Ye Shuangluo, and she eagerly stepped forward to greet him.
“Hello, I’m Xiao Chenyu. I saw you in that streamer Ah Tai’s live broadcast before.”
“Ye Shuangluo.”
Despite Ye Shuangluo’s cold demeanor, Xiao Chenyu seemed even more interested in him. Just as she was about to speak, Huo Ling interjected.
“Partner, did you just finish a mission? You’re really hardworking.”
Comrade Huo looked at Ye Shuangluo with admiration. He had been recuperating at headquarters due to high nightmare levels but kept himself updated on the situation in Luo City.
He knew about his partner’s impressive achievements.
During his absence, Ye Shuangluo single-handedly killed four core members of Eternal Night and handled at least a thousand ghost stories, leaving the rest of Group 1 in the dust.
Ye Shuangluo was indeed recognized by countless game enthusiasts in the Main World as a tireless achiever, his performance far outstripping the rest of Group 1.
Even if the rest of Group 1 combined their achievements, they couldn’t compare to him.
It made Lu Feiyang both love and hate him.
“Not bad. Has your body recovered?”
Ye Shuangluo was concerned about Huo Ling’s health because he urgently needed a teammate to help him grind achievements.
“Of course! I can even go out and fight right now.”
Seeing Huo Ling so energetic, Ye Shuangluo’s lips curled up slightly.
“Good. Old Lu needs to see me. I’ll go first, and when I get back, we’ll go fight together.”
With that, he walked straight to Lu Feiyang’s room.
After he left, Xiao Chenyu suddenly said, “Even though we’ve been at headquarters, we often hear rumors about him. They say Ye Shuangluo is ruthless, cold-blooded, and ambitious. I didn’t expect him to treat you so well.”
Comrade Huo immediately defended his partner, “Rumors are all lies! Ah Luo is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. When we were on missions together, he always led from the front!”
Xiao Chenyu’s fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, and she muttered to herself, “Cold on the outside, warm on the inside… what an interesting man.”
Inside Lu Feiyang’s room.
Since the RV was an alternate dimension created by abilities, the size of each room was determined by the ability user.
Ye Shuangluo and Huo Ling’s rooms were about thirty to forty square meters, while Lu Feiyang’s room was a whopping three hundred square meters.
Although half of it was occupied by a giant fish tank.
Ye Shuangluo sat on an armchair, admiring the “mermaid” in Lu Feiyang’s fish tank.
Of course, it had nothing to do with beauty. It was called a mermaid only because it had a human head and a fish body.
Except, it had hundreds of heads.
Ye Shuangluo was initially shocked when he first saw it in Lu Feiyang’s room. He wondered how Lu Feiyang could sleep with such a creepy thing in his room without having nightmares.
Lu Feiyang sat at his desk, knowing Ye Shuangluo’s personality, and got straight to the point.
“How did you offend the lioness of Dragon City?”
Ye Shuangluo, still teasing the “mermaid” through the fish tank, asked back, “Lioness?”
“Long Yiyi, the leader of Dawn’s Group 4, the only female among the thirteen leaders of Dawn. She’s extremely fierce and always sides with her own people.”
Ye Shuangluo thought for a moment but couldn’t recall anything, so he shook his head decisively.
“Don’t know her, never met her, no idea.”
“She asked me to tell you… never mind, I better not say it.”
Lu Feiyang thought about what Long Yiyi had told him and Ye Shuangluo’s personality. He figured if he repeated it word for word, Ye Shuangluo would probably go next door to Dragon City with a knife.
Ye Shuangluo sneered disdainfully. Even though Lu Feiyang didn’t say it, he could guess it wasn’t anything good.
He had already figured out how he had offended the “lioness.”
“I’ve never even met this lioness. But three days ago, someone called for help. When I arrived, I found a member of Eternal Night. After a fierce battle, someone took a cheap shot, so I had a little chat with the shooter. Lingyun and Jiayue were beaten by Eternal Night and witnessed the whole thing.”
Lu Feiyang nodded. Lingyun and Jiayue had indeed reported this to him.
“So, what does this have to do with the ‘lioness’?”
“The shooter was a new member of Group 4, and he had a little girl with him. He said the girl was their leader’s daughter.”
Lu Feiyang suddenly had a bad feeling and asked nervously, “What did you do to the little girl?”
Ye Shuangluo shrugged and replied, “I didn’t do anything. Do I look like someone who would bully or harm children? I just scared her a bit.”
Lu Feiyang breathed a sigh of relief. It was just a scare. If he had really done something to the lioness’s daughter, she would have come for revenge by now.
But before he could fully relax, he heard Ye Shuangluo say, “Although I did consider killing her on the spot. If I had wanted to, she would have died instantly.”
“Hiss.”
Lu Feiyang took a sharp breath. It had only been a week of peace, and now Ye Shuangluo had caused trouble again, this time with the lioness.
All members of Dawn knew that Long Yiyi was domineering, and her daughter was her only weakness and soft spot.
It was also her reverse scale, untouchable by anyone.
Touching a dragon’s reverse scale meant certain death.
Ye Shuangluo, however, seemed indifferent.
Behind every spoiled child, there was a parent who raised them that way.
He hadn’t killed the little girl because of special circumstances.
Long Yiyi wasn’t a child, nor was she his teammate. Killing her wouldn’t have any consequences.
He hadn’t done anything to the little girl, just scared her a bit. After all, she had shot at him.
If she really came looking for trouble, Ye Shuangluo wouldn’t mind making the world one orphan richer.
After all, slaying “dragons” was something he had done before.
And it would be a good chance to grind an achievement.
