The sudden turn of events on the field left everyone around in shock.
Infinity Sword Saint exclaimed, “Goodness! Young Master Yu guessed it right. He really did pretend to be weak in front of Overlord Blade to lure him into the Abyss Gate! The Abyss Sovereign must have been killed, so now he’s showing his true strength!”
“Using Overlord Blade to help take down the boss? This guy is really something!”
Tian Yu looked at Zhang Yue, feeling increasingly impressed. “No wonder Xin’er likes him, and even Grandpa approves of him!”
Overlord Blade, who was being stepped on by Zhang Yue, glared at him with wide eyes, clearly unconvinced.
Stuck at level 45 for over twenty years, relying on the strength of his Epic Grade Martial Saint profession and the skills honed by two Sovereigns, there was no one in his level range who could match Overlord Blade!
Especially now, with the enhancement of the 6-star God of War set, Overlord Blade considered himself invincible within the 35-55 level range!
Never did he expect that just moments ago, in the Abyss Gate, Zhang Yue defeated him in just three seconds!
During that time, he didn’t even have a chance to counterattack!
Even now, his hand holding the battle blade couldn’t stop trembling.
At this moment, Overlord Blade finally realized a serious problem.
He looked at Zhang Yue in disbelief and asked, “You were hiding your strength all along?!”
Zhang Yue smiled calmly and said, “Otherwise, how would you willingly go in and help me deal with the Abyss Sovereign?”
“To be honest, without you, dealing with the Abyss Sovereign alone would have been quite tricky,” Zhang Yue glanced at Overlord Blade and said cheerfully, “So, I really have to thank you!”
The always arrogant Overlord Blade gradually lost the pride in his eyes.
He should have realized it sooner.
Even the Radiant Guild, one of the three major families in Tianjing, couldn’t handle him, and they spent a lot of resources to create the God of War set and put a twenty-million bounty on him. He was definitely not someone easy to deal with!
Now, he wasn’t a match for Zhang Yue. Once Zhang Yue submitted the quest and received the SSS-grade reward, Overlord Blade would be even less of a match for him!
“I admit, you’re stronger than me,” Overlord Blade said. “Go ahead, do it.”
Just as Overlord Blade closed his eyes, waiting for death.
Zhang Yue lifted his foot and then walked straight towards the City of Ice and Snow!
Overlord Blade was puzzled, “Why don’t you kill me?”
“I was ordered by Radiant. If you don’t kill me, I will continue to target you until I kill you!”
It seemed to Overlord Blade that Zhang Yue was pitying him.
However, with his strong nature, he would rather die in battle than be pitied by his enemy!
Zhang Yue didn’t look back and said, “Kill me if you can.”
Seeing Zhang Yue leave.
Wu Haotian, Lin Tian, and Luo Chen all followed.
Catching up with Zhang Yue, Wu Haotian asked, “Boss, why didn’t you kill Overlord Blade just now?”
“He has a full set of 6-star God of War gear. Even if one piece drops, it would be worth millions!”
Zhang Yue was indifferent, “Keeping him alive is worth much more.”
Lin Tian pondered, “You want to recruit him into our guild?”
Zhang Yue looked at Lin Tian in surprise, “Not bad, you’re getting to know me better.”
Of course, Zhang Yue spared Overlord Blade’s life mainly because he hadn’t killed anyone from the Temple of Destiny or the Tian Family.
Lin Tian continued with his analysis, “In the Otherworld, experts with such operational skills are rare, and his level isn’t high. In a way, he’s no different from this year’s new professionals. If he joins the Temple of Destiny, he would bring great benefits to our guild.”
At this moment, Infinity Phantom pondered, “But Radiant Guild has invested so much in him. It won’t be easy to poach him from Radiant without enough capital.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone frowned, except for Tian Yu, who was unfazed, “Whatever Radiant offers, our Tian Family can double it.”
“Zhang Yue, if you really want to recruit Overlord Blade, I can spend some money to poach him from Radiant for you.”
Hearing this, everyone around was envious.
“I wish I had such a rich brother-in-law!”
“Keep dreaming, you can have anything in your dreams!”
Just as Tian Yu was about to contact the guild to poach Overlord Blade from Radiant, Zhang Yue said, “Buying him with money isn’t reliable.”
“You have to make him willingly join.”
Although they didn’t understand Zhang Yue’s thoughts, they didn’t argue further after hearing his words.
On the way back to the City of Ice and Snow, Zhang Yue opened his storage space and checked the battle gains from the two bosses.
A total of four pieces of equipment, three of which were level 45, 6-star, each worth millions!
There was also a 5-star piece, which was relatively trashy, but it could still fetch tens of thousands on the market.
Of course, Zhang Yue didn’t plan to sell them to outsiders but intended to keep them for his own people.
Along with several level 6 materials, the total value of the two Sovereigns was still very high.
However, for Zhang Yue, the allure of these items was far less than the SSS-grade reward he was about to receive!
Soon, they arrived at the City of Ice and Snow.
Zhang Yue found the city lord: Snow Maiden, Noah.
Hearing that Zhang Yue had successfully killed the Undead Sovereign, Heard, and the Abyss Sovereign, Baru, Noah was overjoyed and tearful, “This was my grandfather’s lifelong wish. Thank you… thank you for fulfilling his dying wish!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a pleasant system notification sounded in Zhang Yue’s ear.
“Ding~ Congratulations on completing the unique hidden quest [Pharaoh’s Prophecy], receiving SSS-grade reward: Level +3! Gold Coins +1000! Psionic Energy +100 billion (with ten thousand times amplification)! Acquired Skill Book [Heavenless God-Slaying Curse] (SSS-grade unique skill)! [Void Set] +1! [Void Stone] (Legendary Grade Treasure) +1!”
[World Announcement]: “Ding~ Congratulations to Dragon Kingdom Professional Zero for completing the unique hidden quest [Pharaoh’s Prophecy] in the Sixth World!”
With this world announcement echoing throughout the Otherworld, all professionals currently online from various countries were in an uproar!
In Japan, a level 240 warrior big shot hunting abyssal crocodiles in the Seventieth World: “The quest that had been sealed in the Sixth World for over a hundred years, completed by those weaklings from Dragon Kingdom? Damn it!”
In Frozen Land, a young archer having an outdoor tryst with his girlfriend: “Damn! Such a rare quest was snatched by someone from Dragon Kingdom! An SSS-grade reward in their hands is a total waste!”
In Beacon Country, the top player organizing a hundred-man raid on the Ninety-Sixth World boss: Mythic Grade Professional Ghost Swordsman Alpha: “Those puny Dragon Kingdom people, dreaming of rising up, how ridiculous!”
“Send word to AG Guild to fully train this year’s new professionals. Make sure to eliminate this Zero from Dragon Kingdom in this year’s Global Professionals Tournament to prevent future troubles!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ghost Swordsman Alpha stabbed his long sword into the ground, releasing a powerful sword light that killed a colossal beast in the distance!
[World Announcement]: “Ding~ Congratulations to Beacon Country Professional Alpha for defeating the world boss: Eight-Armed Demon Emperor, clearing the Ninety-Sixth World…”
