Chapter 421 - Deceptively Powerful Enemy (1/2)

Loulan Slash and his group didn’t move very far before starting a fierce discussion.

“Is that guy really G.o.d Ye Qiu?” This issue had to be made clear first. The Battle Mage and fan of Ye Xiu among the five of them brought up the topic impatiently.

“We can’t be certain at this moment! But if he really is G.o.d Ye Qiu, then the gossip being talked about by everyone would make a lot of sense. Completing the Heavenly Domain Challenge at Level 50, possessing a Silver weapon, no Clubs recruiting him. If he really is Ye Qiu, that would all be very reasonable, no?” Loulan Slash said.

“That’s true……” Another player said, “Especially the fact that no Clubs are recruiting him. I think that proves his ident.i.ty. With so much commotion around such a talent, even if he’s not genuinely talented, the Clubs could still pull him in and test him. It would pretty much be taking in him in, but at the very least, even if he’s not good, he’d attract a lot of attention in a short amount of time. That would be an amazing opportunity for any Club! Yet no Clubs did things like this. There’s no way the Clubs hadn’t thought of this, which mean that they were being restricted by something. Ye Qiu…… if it really is him, then there’s nothing they can do.”

“If he really is Ye Qiu, his retirement will last at least a ful year, which means at the earliest, he could return during the winter split. If they wanted to add him to the team, they would have to wait until then before giving him any consideration.” Another player added.

“You guys have already given it that much thought?” The fourth player laughed, “We still can’t confirm it and even if we could, didn’t you hear the girl? She’s already Ye Qiu’s boss. Ye Qiu also admitted it. It looks like he’s already found a partner to work with.”

“That girl……. I felt like her words weren’t very convincing. My guess is that she’s still not too confident about this cooperation! She wasn’t as calm as Ye Qiu.” Loulan Slash said.

“Then what do we do now?”

“Continue doing what we’re doing. As for that guy over there…… Little Bei, pay attention to him, okay? I feel like you’d be quite interested in doing that!” Loulan Slash laughed.

“Let me! Let me!” Little Bei was that Battle Mage. As a fan of Ye Qiu, interacting with him would be something he was happy to do.

After sending off Loulan Slash, Ye Xiu continued to level. No one talked about what had just happened. Chen Guo wasn’t feeling very calm though.

Even though Ye Xiu had personally acknowledged that she was his boss, what about herself? After discovering that there were these types of compet.i.tors out there, she was beginning to hesitate. Loulan Slash’s judgement of her was correct. The current Chen Guo wasn’t feeling very confident…….

She already realized that with Ye Xiu’s skill and position and her small amount of capital, she might not be able to help too much. It could even be said that she would be restricting his development. In the Glory Pro Alliance, every year, the two lowest ranked teams would be kicked, which meant that every year, there could be up to two teams that would be replaced. As a result, there were plenty of people who invested in a team hoping that it would enter the Pro Alliance. Chen Guo was certain that these investors had much more money than she did.

With Ye Xiu’s skill and status, if he had an offer, who would refuse it? But what about her? What type of capital she could afford wasn’t something others knew. She didn’t even know herself. When the time came, she might not even be able to afford the transfer of another pro player. As an owner, being that poor would be a joke. With an investor like her, could she actually help Ye Xiu achieve his dreams?

Chen Guo discovered that she hadn’t been mature enough when she had made the decision on a whim.

Leaving Excellent Dynasty was a small matter.

Not watching Excellen Era’s matches was a small matter.

But wasn’t she overestimating herself saying that she would create a team that would beat Excellent Era?

“What are you thinking about? Please concentrate a bit more!”

Chen Guo woke up with a start. She looked at her screen and saw that Ye Xiu’s Lord Grim had moved past her and grabbed a small monster next to her. Launchers were long-ranged attackers. Having a monster so close to her while fighting and not reacting meant that her mind had gone wandering away.

“Oh, I wasn’t paying attention.” Chen Guo gave an excuse.

“Are you thinking about that guy from before?” Ye Xiu asked.

“A bit.” Chen Guo said.

“What were you thinking of?” Ye Xiu asked.

“I was thinking…… that if we’re going to create a team, then our resources are a bit scarce. Seeking for some cooperation with others might not be a bad idea.” Chen Guo said.

“Mm, it’s not a bad idea, but there’s one problem with it.” Ye Xiu said.

“What’s the problem?” Chen Guo asked.

“We’re not familiar with them.” Ye Xiu smiled.

“We just met. Of course, we’re not familiar with them.” Chen Guo said.

“That’s why they added us as friends. Them saying that they would contact us later was because they’re not familiar with us either.” Ye Xiu said.

“Talk with them a bit and we’ll be familiar…….” Chen Guo said, but she also felt a bit grieved. She really wanted to rely on her own power to help Ye Xiu create a team, but she also felt like she wouldn’t be able to accomplish it with only herself. Did they really need to borrow other people’s help? Chen Guo was very conflicted.

Tang Rou was sitting next to the two of them. She wasn’t in the same place as them, so she hadn’t heard their conversation with Loulan Slash. They hadn’t said much, but she had noticed a few subtleties in their words. Tang Rou wouldn’t talk of other’s private matters, but if it was about the team, she felt like she had a part in it, so she joined in: “Who’d you meet?”

“People who appear to have money.” Ye Xiu said.

“Oh? What was his purpose?” Tang Rou asked.

“They seem to want to form a team too, so they asked if I wanted to join!” Ye Xiu said.

“Why don’t they join ours?” Tang Rou asked.

“Good idea!” Ye Xiu praised.

Chen Guo listened in astonishment. This sister seemed to have overestimated their strength even more than her!
