When Zhang Yue arrived at the City of Destruction at level 32 with his mission in hand, he was greeted by the sight of a group of Professionals hunting Dark Tribe dragons in the city.
They were clearly on the “Against the Darkness” mission.
And those people were not strangers to him.
They were from the God of War Guild!
Originally, the group was enthusiastically slaying the black dragons.
But when they saw Zhang Yue entering with a staff on his shoulder, they all shuddered.
“Holy crap! It’s him again!”
“Who is it? Why the fuss?”
“Damn! It’s you again?!”
Several members of the God of War Guild on the outskirts bolted as soon as they saw Zhang Yue.
“Why are you running? Am I that terrifying?”
Zhang Yue frowned.
Ignoring them, he summoned the Skeleton King and Skeleton Warriors and began slaying dragons.
But before Zhang Yue could kill a few dragons, a large group of God of War Guild Professionals swarmed in, surrounding him!
At the forefront of the crowd stood a young knight in black armor, with a brown perm and a dark face, looking both rustic and trendy.
He was none other than the Vice Guild Leader of the God of War Guild: Elite Grade Iron Knight · God of War Invincible!
Clearly, Wu Di was still holding a grudge over what happened the night before last.
Pointing at Zhang Yue, he snarled, “You brat, you dare come here? Do you really think I can’t kill you?”
“That night, you only had the help of those Lord dragons. Now that they’re not here, and the Destruction Zombie Dragon is gone, let’s see how arrogant you can be!”
Zhang Yue glanced at Wu Di and said, “Oh, you’re level 24 now? Weren’t you level 25 the day before yesterday?”
“Oh, I remember now. You must have failed a hidden mission and got penalized with a level drop.”
“You son of a…!” Zhang Yue’s words instantly enraged Wu Di. “It’s all because of you that I failed my mission!”
“You stole my mission and my woman! Damn you!”
Wu Di pointed at Zhang Yue and ordered, “Brothers, teach this arrogant brat a lesson!”
Just as the members of the God of War Guild were about to make a move, a voice called out from behind, “Stop!”
Turning to look, they saw a refined and distinguished mage in a Necromancer Set, wearing glasses, walking over from the back of the crowd.
“Guild Leader!” Everyone greeted the Rare Grade Core Professional Thunder Mage with utmost respect.
Wu Di pointed at Zhang Yue and said to God of War Retribution, “Guild Leader, look who it is!”
“He’s the one who ruined my mission, stole our BOSS, and killed several of our guild members the night before last!”
“I know,” God of War Retribution said calmly. “Leave him to me.”
Hearing this, Wu Di secretly smiled with satisfaction.
He thought: This time, with my boss, the Rare Grade Core Professional Thunder Mage, personally stepping in, and without the black dragon’s help, that guy is doomed!
Just as Wu Di was thinking this, Zhang Yue, surrounded by the God of War Guild, remained calm. He raised his staff, and a murderous intent emanated from him!
Zhang Yue was ready to take down anyone who dared to attack!
At that moment, God of War Retribution suddenly said to Zhang Yue, “Hello, brother. Although you offended our God of War Guild first, I can give you a chance to make amends.”
“If you are willing to join our God of War Guild, I will let this matter go and offer you the standard newcomer salary of fifty thousand a month.”
Wu Di, who was expecting to see Zhang Yue get slaughtered, was stunned. “Guild Leader, he’s our enemy!”
Ignoring Wu Di, God of War Retribution asked Zhang Yue, “What do you think? Will you consider it?”
The surrounding Professionals, all grateful to be part of the second-ranked guild in Zhening Province, thought Zhang Yue couldn’t possibly refuse their Guild Leader’s invitation.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Yue replied without hesitation, “Sorry, I have no plans to join a guild at the moment.”
The God of War Guild members were dumbfounded.
“This guy… actually refused the Guild Leader’s invitation?”
“The second-ranked guild in the province! Is he crazy?”
Wu Di said to God of War Retribution, “Guild Leader, stop wasting time with this ungrateful guy!”
“Brothers, kill him!”
As Wu Di gave the order, the God of War Guild members were about to act when suddenly, a large group of Professionals surged in from outside the City of Destruction, surrounding the God of War Guild members!
“Who dares to touch my big brother!”
A familiar voice rang out.
The next moment, an Elite Grade Sword and Shield Warrior in golden armor, helmet, and sword, exuding an aura of wealth, pushed through the crowd and stood beside Zhang Yue!
On the other side, Su Jinyan also arrived with members of the Mist Rain Pavilion.
“Protect Zhang Yue!”
Under Su Jinyan’s command, over a hundred Mist Rain Pavilion Professionals and two hundred Supreme Guild Professionals formed a massive circle, surrounding the dozens of God of War Guild members!
Seeing this, Wu Di was shocked. “Mist Rain Pavilion and Supreme Guild?!”
“What are you doing? Do you want to go against the second-ranked God of War Guild in the province?”
“Second-ranked, so what?” Liu Yao, with one hand on his sword and the other on his hip, said confidently, “Do you have more money than me, or are you better looking?”
“My big brother, Liu Yao, is not someone you can mess with!”
Su Jinyan, holding her staff, confronted God of War Retribution and said, “Sorry, but if you want to touch Zhang Yue, the Mist Rain Pavilion won’t agree.”
Wu Di, burning with rage, shouted, “Damn it, do you all want to die?”
“Brothers, let’s…”
Before Wu Di could finish, God of War Retribution decisively ordered, “Retreat!”
The Guild Leader’s command was absolute.
The God of War Guild members immediately followed God of War Retribution and retreated, leaving Wu Di alone. His arrogance vanished, and he quickly followed God of War Retribution.
After retreating from the Mist Rain Pavilion and Supreme Guild’s encirclement, Wu Di caught up with God of War Retribution and asked, “Guild Leader, why are we afraid of the third and fifth-ranked guilds? We can easily take them on with our strength!”
“The Global Professionals Tournament is approaching. It’s not wise to waste our strength on meaningless battles now.”
As God of War Retribution finished speaking, Wu Di seemed to understand. “So, you wanted to recruit that Beast Tamer because…”
“Can’t you see his strength?” God of War Retribution analyzed calmly. “I noticed the night before last that his background is not simple. Otherwise, a lone Beast Tamer couldn’t have developed so well.”
“A strong individual with both strength and background would be a great asset to our guild in the upcoming tournament.”
“But I didn’t expect him to be connected to both the Supreme Guild and Mist Rain Pavilion.”
Taking this opportunity, Wu Di suggested, “Then why don’t we find a chance to kill him next time? That way, he won’t help Supreme and Mist Rain Pavilion against us in the tournament!”
“No,” God of War Retribution said. “The fact that both guilds are vying for him means his value is far beyond my expectations. The more valuable he is, the more I want to recruit him into our God of War Guild!”
“Let’s retreat and regroup.”
Wu Di’s thoughts were entirely different from God of War Retribution’s.
All he wanted was to eliminate Zhang Yue!
“Steal my woman?”
“Just wait, I’ll find a way to make you disappear from this world!”
“Not even our Guild Leader can save you!”
Meanwhile, on the other side.
After driving away the God of War Guild members, Su Jinyan sighed in relief. “Luckily, we arrived in time. Otherwise, Zhang Yue, you would have been in trouble!”
Liu Yao wiped his sword. “Who do they think I am? Dare to touch my big brother?”
“They probably thought you were alone and easy to bully.”
In the midst of their conversation.
Liu Yao and Su Jinyan suddenly spoke to Zhang Yue in unison, “Zhang Yue (bro), join my Mist Rain Pavilion (Supreme Guild)!”
