Chapter 643 – Brilliant Fire Emperor (1/2)
Chapter 643 Brilliant Fire Emperor
I lifted my head to take a look. As expected, Dragon Emperor, the level 115 Knight, had brought a group of players here. They had come straight from the eighth floor and landed on the ninth floor. All the monsters here had been cleared out by us, [Zhan Long], so they shouldn’t have anything to argue over with us. The only problem was, the corpse of the BOSS Cang Gu was just beside my leg. They should’ve seen it already. So what exactly did they come down the 9th floor for? Could it be that they want pick a fight with us?
……
Dragon Emperor raised his long halberd as he urged his horse forward. He smiled, ”I've heard that Ba Huang City has an epic tier map called Pangu's Abyss. Yet, I didn't expect that [Zhan Long] would arrive here before us and kill the BOSS first. So unfortunate.......”
I climbed onto my mount, pulled out my Dragon Reservoir Sword to face him directly. I chuckled and said, ”Yeah, it certainly is very unfortunate. Otherwise, we wouldn’t been able to see a group of people getting miserably PKed because they were trying to steal the BOSS.
[Emperor's Blood] vice-guild leader, Blue Dragon Emperor raised his indigo sword and said, ”Xiao Yao Zi Zai,we didn’t come here to fight [Zhan Long] to the death. Since you have already taken the BOSS down, why don't you give this area to us. We’re only here to gather herbs.”
”Gather Herbs?” Wan Er was somewhat stunned as she immediately glanced around the whole area. It was only then that she notice the many different herbs growing on the walls on the ninth floor. Some of them were even Tier 10 Demon God Grass. Consequently, this little beauty looked at me with a face of joy. ”Pig, we can first harvest the herbs before leaving ......”
The muscles on my face twitched a little as I said to her, ”Others just said that they came here to gather herbs and now, you want to gather the herbs before leaving? This is obviously putting us against them ah......”
However, even though I said otherwise, I still unsheathed my Zhen Yue Sword. With two swords in my hands, I chuckled, ”I'm sorry. We came to Pangu's Abyss planning to monopolise everything here. All of the monsters here have all been killed by the brothers of [Zhan Long]. Just to kill our way through to the 9th floor, many of our brothers from [Zhan Long] have sacrificed their levels to get here. Friends from [Emperor's Blood], I hope you can give us [Zhan Long] some respect and give this entire Pangu's Abyss to us, members of Ba Huang City. I believe that Jiu Li City too has many similar high-level maps like that of Pangu's Abyss.”
Indignantly, Blue Dragon Emperor roared, ”Xiao Yao Zi Zai, just what are you exactly trying to imply here? Are you that greedy? Even after you killed the BOSS, you still want the herbs?What exactly do you think our [Emperor's Blood] is?”
Li Mu then swiftly lifted his long sword and commanded, ”[Zhan Long], get into battle formations, prepare for battle!”
Old K, One Second Hero, Wolf and the other members then hurriedly raised their swords and crossbows and started to get into position.The front line was made up of Li Mu, Wang Jian, Bai Qi, Yue Qing Qian and Star Blade, all of whom were famous players in Ba Huang City. In terms of strength, sending 30% of our troops would have been enough to crush the an opponent that didn’t even have a hundred men on their team
……
... ...
”Sh*t......”
Dragon Emperor lifted his long halberd. He glared at me and said, ”Guildmaster Xiao Yao Zi Zai, if I don't remember wrongly, [Zhan Long]'s motto was to fight for the weak. If you were to act like this today against us weaklings, don't you think it's a little hypocritical?”
I couldn't help but laugh. I stabbed my Zhen Yue Sword into a stone slab in front of him with a ”keng” sound and coldly said, ”Fighting for the weak. Then who exactly is the weak? [Emperor's Blood] counts on their weak strength to steal [Zhan Long]'s hard-fought rewards. To the weakling who has provoked the strong, whether or not I kill them is of no consequence. But do you think I'm stupid? Did you think mentioning my motto of ”Fighting for the weak” would make me submit to you? Dragon Emperor, having said so, you should act more carefully. [Zhan Long] is a guild that fights for the weak. But more importantly.......we will never be bullied! Come! If you have the guts, try to advance past my sword. If you dare to come, we will fight with you!”
As I said that, I looked towards Wan Er and whispered, ”Dear, why don't you take some people to harvest the herbs!”
Wan Er cheerfully nodded her head and took Dong Cheng, Qing Qian and the other sisters to gather the Demon God Grass around the walls. Meanwhile, I lead Li Mu, Wang Jian and Ran Min to maintain the defense line with the other core fighting powers of [Zhan Long].
Dragon Emperor mounted his war horse, and grit his teeth. Despite his fury, he didn’t seem to have any plan. Putting up a brave front was a frightening idea but if he were to retreat in front of the players from his guild, he wouldn't have any face left. Therefore, he was left seated on his warhorse for a long time without any sort of plan.
……
... ...
After roughly 20 minutes, all the Demon God Grass that was growing on the wall behind me was gathered clean. Wan Er looked at me and smiled, ”My [Herb Gathering] has finally levelled to 12 ......”
I nodded and smiled, ”That's good......Let's retreat then. Let everyone return to the city!”
”We can’t......”
Wan Er looked at [Emperor's Blood] and said, ”[Emperor's Blood] hasn’t left yet. They will wait for our main strength to leave first and kill the remaining members in the hall. That won't be good......”
I thought and glanced at Dragon Emperor and said, ”[Emperor's Blood] Guildmaster, are you planning to waste more time with [Zhan Long] here? I’m thinking that [Emperor’s Blood] won’t even make it into the top sixteen of the Chinese Servers for the Hero’s Wing’s Cup at this rate. Why don’t you go and grind your levels and equipments?”
Dragon Emperor bit his lip and said reluctantly, ”Brothers, let's go!”
I softly smiled as I looked at the large group of [Emperor's Blood] players make their leave. It was only when they had completely left did I pull out a City Return Scroll to Tian Ling City. I then shouted, ”Let's all return back to the city and to King Rob where we'll receive our rewards!”
Everyone took out their city return scroll together and instantaneously, countless rays of light swept across as 100 players left the area back to the city.
……
... ...
As I lead the elites of [Zhan Long] back to the Imperial Palace, I could see many players from the three big cities all rushing to complete the procedures to register as a member of Tian Ling City. However, since this was no longer the first day of opening, King Rob was no longer the person in charge of the registration process. Instead official secretaries were positioned outside the main hall to be in charge.
My Flying Scythe War Horse neighed loudly as it swiftly rode into the main hall. Behind, Wan Er, Qing Qian, Li Mu and the other members were all following me.
I slid off my mount and retrieved the fragment of Pangu's Axe from my bag. I then walked forward and presented it to King Rob, ”Your Majesty, we have returned from Pangu's Abyss and have brought you a most valuable treasure......”
King Rob asked astoundedly, ”Young warrior, what have you brought?”
I lifted the fragment and said, ”This, this fragment of Pangu's Axe......”
”What?
!”
King Rob trembled a little as he stood there in shock, ”Pangu's Axe......It has finally seen daylight again, this......”
On the side, Princess Pearl joyfully exclaimed, ”Congratulations Lord Father for obtaining a fragment of Pangu's Axe!”
Prince Theodore added, ”Huh? I heard Pangu's Abyss was guarded by the strongest members of the Chi You Tribe? Has this adventurer actually gone to Pangu's Abyss and killed that Chi You Tribe General Cang Gu already?”
I nodded my head in agreement, ”Yes Sir. My party members and I have already killed Cang Gu. That's how we were able to obtain Pangu's Axe!”
”Good, good, good!
King Rob joyfully agreed three times and said, ”With this Pangu's Axe, our Tian Ling Empire will stand a better chance in defeating the Hybrid Demon Army in the north, this is very good! Theodore, I’ll bestow this Pangu’s Axe for you to use. Just in time too since you don’t have a good weapon at the moment.”
