"I . . . I wanted . . . I wanted . . . ”
Lin Yixin stammered for a while but could not finish her sentence .
My heart rippled and I asked, "You missed me?"
Lin Yixin was quick in her words this time . "Yes, I wanted to beat you up!"
" . . . ”
The additional words were enough to cause me grief .
……
Seeing me remain silent, Lin Yixin laughed and said, "I know that Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls have a base of operations . You, Gui Guzi, Beiming Xue and the others must be there!"
"Oh, so you do know . . . ” I felt slightly guilty . "Then why were you searching for me?"
"No, I just wanted to confirm if you were alive or not . How about it, does this miss have enough concern for you?" Lin Yixin said with a chuckle .
I was speechless . "It is so late, but you’re not sleeping yet?"
"No, grinding!"
"Dorms shut down routers for the night . Are you using an internet cafe connection?"
Lin Yixin was speechless . "Internet cafe? I’m not you, the legendary 'overnight cafe male' . Why would I go to an internet cafe? The school recently, um, was unanimously asked to keep the internet connection alive . ”
"Oh, that's good . ”
"Alright . I’m going to level up, you continue whatever it is you’re doing . Speaking of which, what are you doing?"
"Sp.a.w.n camping!"
"OMG, shame on you . Sp.a.w.n camping is so detestable!"
"Look who’s talking . You sp.a.w.n camped Gui Guzi's corpse for an entire night . "

"That was my persistence in fighting the Dark faction . . . ”
"And I’m just vile, bullying the weak and ill . . . ”
"Heehee, you do have some brains~"
" . . . ”
……
I closed the chat . Lin Yixin went back to grinding . I’m guessing that her level would soon return to the top of Floating Ice City . I didn’t have a skill as broken for consistent grinding as her Killer Wind Swordplay . I was at a bit of a disadvantage . I’d still do my best to maintain my position in the Top 3 though . As the de facto leader of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, I had to maintain my level advantage . As the guild’s banner, I had to represent .
After waiting for about half an hour, one of the players in front of me revived . It was an archer from the Ego workshop!
Players would revive with just half HP, so the moment he tried to get up, Beiming Xue shot him with a lightning-quick arrow!
Bang!
The archer flew back like a kite with a broken string . He immediately lost all HP, killed in an instant!
I sprinted with my sword . I had a feeling that they would collectively revive!
As expected, in the next moment, about seven people revived together . They must have counted down together . Yet the moment of revival, Spring Mud shouted, "s.h.i.+t, dodge!"
Rustle . . .
The force of my sword blew gra.s.s and leaves into the air . I chose the optimal position to cover the enemy plays and executed Thousand Mirage Slas.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
The Ghost Ice Soul’s light turned into six sword energies that fell into the crowd . All the recently revived players were instantly killed, including Spring Mud!
With just half HP, they couldn’t survive a single Thousand Mirage Slash . I had to admit, they were really unlucky to cross me of all people .
Beiming Xue stood in the distance, her Evil Spirit Volley arriving with a howl . The powerful explosion caused the remaining people to fall to the ground . in an instant, the eleven players were once again in their soul state!
Xu Yang was speechless . He said, "f.u.c.k, you two are too strong, can you at least give me a chance to get a hit in?"

I smiled . "Just be faster next time!"
" . . . ”
We continued to sp.a.w.n camp . Soon, Xu Yang said, "A brother in the city saw Spring Mud and the others reviving! Tsk tsk, Spring Mud dropped to Level 55 . He was actually willing to revive like that!"
I sheathed my sword and smiled . "Ok, the mission against the traitors is done . We can rest!"
"Yes!"
We entered the city and went offline!
……
I slept deeply and only woke up around noon .
Knock knock knock . . .
Murong Mingyue knocked on the door and shouted, "Lu Chen, are you addicted to sleep or something? The sun’s high in the sky, get up!"
I hurriedly changed my clothes, washed up and opened the door . Murong Mingyue was sitting on a sofa nearby . She immediately stood up and said, "Let's go, we’re going downstairs for coffee and food~"
"Don’t we have our own cafeteria upstairs? Why go downstairs to eat?" I asked .
Murong Mingyue smiled . "Eve’s not used to the food in the cafeteria . Let's go, she’s already downstairs ordering for three . You must go . ”
"Alright . ”
It was great when someone was paying for the meal . I’ve always dreamt of drinking and eating for free everyday .
……
I had thought the cafe downstairs only sold coffee . I hadn't expected there to be food as well .
He Yi was sitting there, dressed in a dark dress . She appeared serene and demure when she slightly smiled, her two dimples enchanting .
I sat down facing He Yi and looked at the food in front of me . I laughed . "Boss, why eat this here . . . I think the braised ribs and the spicy fish in the cafeteria are good . . . ”
He Yi pouted and said with a smile, "That’s because you have strong tastes . . . ”

I glanced at the plate again . Fruit fried rice with huge shrimp . d.a.m.n, would this be enough?
Seems like I have to make noodles when I return .
I bent down and shoveled in the fried rice in a few moves . He Yi and Murong Mingyue appeared shocked . "Wow, how long has it been since he ate?"
I wiped my mouth and started to taste the fruit juice . It wasn't much better than fresh orange juice, and too sweet .
……
Murong Mingyue forked a piece of fish and said, "Lu Chen, how did it feel to sp.a.w.n camp last night, good?"
I smiled . "Speaking of sp.a.w.n camping, that night in Silver Moon Valley was the best . Yesterday, there were only 12 people, and many of them newbies . In Silver Moon Valley, there were multiple Heavenly Ranking pros . They were fierce, and posed more of a threat to me . Several times, when I revived, I was instantly killed . So exciting . . . ”
Murong Mingyue laughed softly . "I’m afraid only people like you would consider something like that exciting . "
He Yi looked at me with red eyes . "That time, I had a feeling it was you . But you denied it . Hmph… I’m so angry . . . ”
I felt slightly embarra.s.sed .
Murong Mingyue hurriedly smoothed matters over . "Eve, don’t bother thinking too deep into it . Hasn’t Lu Chen returned? Heehee, the late Falling Dust wasn’t that strong . Lu Chen is completely different . Even without Lian Xin, he alone is enough to support all of us . Hoho, I can already see our guild s.h.i.+ning greatly in future compet.i.tions!"
He Yi nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, in any case, everything else is secondary . As long as Lu Chen is back with us, safe and sound . . . ”
I felt slightly warm . My appet.i.te increased, so I ordered another meal .
……
He Yi ate a bit and was quickly full . She sucked on the straw and looked at me with a smile . "Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls took in 800 people today, we’re full now . ”
"Oh? How is the quality of these eight hundred?"
"10% are third-promotion players, the lowest among the rest is Level 55 . We didn't accept anything under that . ”
"Mn, not bad!" I nodded and asked, "What are the standards?"
Murong Mingyue smiled . "Male players, those with strong bodies and a sense of justice preferred . Female players, those with large chests and no brains preferred . . . ”
I was speechless and accidentally glanced toward Murong Mingyue's chest . It was cold in the fall but the weather was still warm . Murong Mingyue was wearing a low-cut T-s.h.i.+rt and a sweater . The result could be imagined . Her curves were even more evident, and immediately became the focus of many players . No wonder company workers had been stretching their necks and drooling in the elevator just now .
Meeting my gaze, Murong Mingyue's face flushed red but she puffed out her chest and said, "Why look at me? While this sister has a.s.sets, this sister also has brains . Don't lump me together with those idiot women . . . ”
I hurriedly shook my head . "I’d never! I know that Sister Mingyue is exceptionally intelligent . ”
He Yi grinned . "Alright, don’t talk about such degenerate things whenever you meet up . How about we talk about something sophisticated and refres.h.i.+ng?"
"Hm?"
"Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls’ development is going well . Lu Chen, what do you think we should focus on in the future?"
I put down my cup and said with a smile, "I’m not the one to decide the development direction . I also have to worry about the development of b.l.o.o.d.y Mercenaries . Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' specific development plan should be devised by boss and Sister Mingyue . As for me, Gui Guzi, and Beiming Xue, the three of us only joined to put you in the limelight . It would be best if matters of the guild didn’t affect our progression!"
He Yi nodded . "Yes, I think the same . The three of you will be the backbone of our guild . Your leveling cannot be impacted . Otherwise, we will lose our advantage of top-tier experts!"
Murong Mingyue said, "Really? Even if Lu Chen, Gui Guzi and Beiming Xue do not partic.i.p.ate, we have Chaos Moon, Moonlight Stone, and other first-cla.s.s experts . . . ”
He Yi laughed softly . "Those people can deal with Mad Dragon and Flower Room . But Mingyue, do you feel they can last against Candle Dragon?"
I nodded as well . "Yes, only top-tier first-cla.s.s experts can face Candle Dragon . Otherwise, we won’t be able to match people like Candlelight Shadow and Tempest Shadow . Their guild alone has five CGL Hall of Famers . This force is indeed strong enough to rule the China server . ”
Murong Mingyue suddenly gulped down juice and said helplessly, "Alright, I didn’t think you two still had a grudge against Candle Dragon and Candlelight Shadow . It appears you are thinking further than me . ”
I chuckled and said, "If we don't kill Candlelight Shadow, I can’t prove my return!"
He Yi pursed her lips, her eyes filled with longing . "Yes, after being pursued by Candlelight Shadow for nearly a year, I’ve had enough!"
Murong Mingyue said, "I just don't know which city Candlelight Shadow will use as their development base . Maybe it’d be Vanished G.o.d City . . . ”
"Ignore him . We’re choosing Sky City as our base . If Candle Dragon dares to come, then we will face them . Even if we’re in a different city, we will eventually cross blades sooner or later!"
"Right!"
……
After lunch, we all went back online .
I had to continue leveling up, and be the first to reach my fourth cla.s.s promotion!
