After Radiant announced their surrender, Chen’s Army finally couldn’t hold on any longer.
That night, Chen Jun sent a message, claiming he was willing to offer the Epic Grade Treasure [Heart of the Demon] along with fifty million in funds to Zhang Yue for reconciliation.
However, Chen Jun added a condition: the transaction had to take place on the Sixth World’s [Frozen Forbidden Land] map.
Chen Jun’s reason was that he had a task in the Frozen Forbidden Land and wanted Zhang Yue to help him out as a gesture of goodwill for their surrender.
Upon seeing Chen Jun’s message, Zhang Yue smiled knowingly, as if he had seen through everything.
Just then, Chen Long also sent a message: “Brother, that Chen Jun is full of tricks. Be careful when dealing with him!”
Without hesitation, Zhang Yue replied to Chen Jun: “You need to prove your sincerity, right? Transfer the money first, and you can give me the Heart of the Demon after I help you complete the task.”
Along with the message, Zhang Yue sent his bank account number.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before Zhang Yue received a message confirming a transfer of fifty million!
In one night, the combined actions of Radiant and Chen’s Army made Zhang Yue a billionaire. He certainly owed them a big thank you!
After receiving the money, Zhang Yue logged off, planning to have a meal before heading to the meeting.
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Chen’s Army Guild, Chen Jun, who had just applied for approval from above and had the finance department transfer fifty million to Zhang Yue, looked at the message thread on his phone with Zhang Yue, gripping his phone tightly, his eyes filled with endless hatred and murderous intent!
“You dare take money from Chen’s Army! Tonight, I’ll make you return that fifty million with interest!”
“Also, cherish your last night alive! Hmph…”
With this in mind, Chen Jun dialed another number: “Boss Xu, has the batch of goods I requested arrived?”
The next second, a deep voice came from the phone: “Don’t worry, it’s been expedited and should be arriving in Tianjing soon.”
Chen Jun replied happily, “Great, thank you, Boss Xu!”
At this moment, Boss Xu on the other end added, “Remember, about the source of these goods…”
Before Boss Xu could finish, Chen Jun quickly said, “Don’t worry, Boss Xu. No matter who asks, I won’t say a word!”
“And when I need to use these goods, everyone around will be our own people, so they won’t suspect a thing.” After a pause, Chen Jun continued, “Besides, the only outsider won’t be a problem, because a dying person poses no threat…”
Elsewhere.
After dinner, Zhang Yue posted a message in the guild chat: “First time in Tianjing, taking the night off. Everyone go enjoy the night market in Tianjing. All expenses tonight are on the guild.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the chat exploded with excitement.
Ouyang Ling’er: “Really? Wow! Guild Leader, you’re the best!”
Li Yue: “Help! I absolutely love this kind of boss!”
One Night Stand: “I’ve heard Tianjing is full of beautiful women. What a rare opportunity. Let’s party tonight, everybody!”
Every guild has its own rules.
Freelance Professionals can log in and out as they please, taking breaks whenever they want.
But guild Professionals can’t.
To boost the guild’s morale, Zhang Yue had established a rule from the day the Temple of Destiny Guild was founded: “Except for weekends, work hours from Monday to Friday are from 8 AM to 9 PM, with penalties for tardiness or early leave.”
After all, the Temple of Destiny members were earning a monthly salary of fifty thousand, far exceeding the treatment of the top three provincial guilds.
Naturally, they had to show their dedication to earn that salary!
It was a rare Tuesday night off, and being in Tianjing made everyone excited.
At this moment, Wu Haotian said, “I’ve got my eye on a Maserati. If I buy it tonight, can I put it on the guild’s tab?”
Zhang Yue: “Sure, the guild will reimburse you 10%, and you handle the rest.”
Wu Haotian: “Ah… never mind!”
After granting the entire guild a break, Zhang Yue sent a private message to Ning Tiantian: “You’ll need to work overtime tonight. I have a task for you.”
Ning Tiantian, being naturally introverted, didn’t like the noise of big cities.
Hearing that Zhang Yue needed her, she immediately agreed: “Sure, no problem! Brother Zhang Yue, should we log in now?”
Just then, Zhang Yue received a message from Chen Jun: “Brother, are you online? I’m waiting for you in the Frozen Forbidden Land!”
Zhang Yue immediately logged in with Ning Tiantian.
Seeing that Zhang Yue hadn’t brought anyone else, only her, Ning Tiantian felt a bit flattered.
“Brother Zhang Yue, what task are we doing?”
Zhang Yue glanced at Ning Tiantian and asked, “What if someone uses a control skill on me?”
Ning Tiantian, gripping her staff, replied earnestly, “I’ll remove the control from you immediately, Brother Zhang Yue!”
Zhang Yue smiled with satisfaction: “Good, that’s your task tonight. Complete it, and you’ll get a 30% bonus on your salary this month.”
Ning Tiantian’s mind quickly calculated the bonus: “One times five is five, two times five is thirty, Labor Day, Children’s Day…”
“Thank you, Brother Zhang Yue!”
Having grown up in hardship, Ning Tiantian naturally loved money.
Soon, Ning Tiantian followed Zhang Yue to a level 45 map in the southern part of the City of Ice and Snow: the Frozen Forbidden Land.
There, a large group of Chen’s Army Professionals was already waiting outside. In white armor, they looked quite the part as level 45 Warriors [Jun Yue] (Chen Jun’s ID), personally welcoming Zhang Yue: “Brother, you’re here!”
Chen Jun began explaining to Zhang Yue: “Ah, this task is quite challenging! Brother, since you’ve taken the money, and we’re on such terms now, it shouldn’t be too much to ask for your help with a task, right?”
Zhang Yue replied calmly, “Of course.”
“I’m bringing someone in with me.”
As soon as Zhang Yue finished speaking, Chen Jun saw the Priest girl Ning Tiantian standing beside Zhang Yue and said without hesitation, “Of course, no problem!”
In fact, seeing that Zhang Yue had only brought along what seemed like a useless decoration, rather than the rest of the Temple of Destiny members, Chen Jun was overjoyed!
He thought, “I was worried about how to keep the others outside and only let you in for my revenge.”
“But now, this guy only brought a decoration! Haha, this is perfect! Let’s see how you handle this alone, with no one to help you!”
Thus, Zhang Yue, Ning Tiantian, and Chen Jun entered the Frozen Forbidden Land together.
This was a city sealed by magic.
The streets and alleys were covered in frost, with a chill seeping in from all around.
Chen Jun deliberately walked behind.
But for some reason, Ning Tiantian also walked behind with Chen Jun.
Chen Jun didn’t think much of it.
Watching Zhang Yue gradually distance himself, he suddenly stopped.
He coldly said to Zhang Yue, “I called you brother, and you dared to accept it!”
Zhang Yue paused, turned back to look at Chen Jun, and said, “Try calling me dad next time, and I might accept that too.”
Chen Jun suddenly changed his demeanor, becoming sharp again, and sneered, “You fool, did you really think I called you here to help with a task?”
“You’ve been tricked!”
With that, Chen Jun waved his hand, giving a command.
The next moment.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
From all directions, countless arrows and magic balls suddenly rained down on Zhang Yue!
