Chapter 238: Tan Songyun (1/2)

In the White Jade guild's guild house. A meeting was held for all the disciples in that guild to gather. Since it was only a bit past midnight, most of the girls were still up training, while the few that were asleep were woken up.

The newer guild members didn't understand what was going on, but the more experienced members understood the situation perfectly.

Once everyone was gathered, 3 Dragon Class disciples suddenly made an appearance. The murmuring finally died as they waited to hear what they were going to say.

”All of you, look to your left, then to your right. Who is missing?” The Dragon-Class disciple named Tan Songyun suddenly said.

”P-Pan Hong isn't here,” one guild member said.

Tan Songyun looked down at the Black Guild Stone in her hands then quickly tried to find Pan Hong's name on the list.

”I'm here!” Pan Hong quickly said from within the crowd.

At the same time, Tan Songyun found her name on the Black Guild Stone, which contained all the names and ranks of everyone that was a part of their guild.

Tan Songyun frowned.

”Is this a joke to you!? I'll ask you all one more time! Who... isn't... here!?” Tan Songyun pronounced every syllable clearly.

Most of them had never seen Tan Songyun get this angry before, so they were all on edge.

Chen Li knew what was happening, but she didn't concern herself with what was going on. However, after a brief scan of the room, she suddenly knew who was missing.

”It's Yan Mei,” Chen Li said calmly.

Chen Li was not standing in the crowd with the rest of them, since she was ranked 1st on the trial pod test, she wasn't treated much different from the other 3 Dragon-Class disciples in this guild.

Tan Songyun's frown lessened considerably when she looked at Chen Li.

”Chen Li, are you sure?” Tan Songyun asked.

Chen Li suddenly looked down at the crowd below.

”Yan Mei, if you're here, show yourself,” Chen Li said, just wanting to get this meeting over with.

The room became silent as the other guild members looked around. It seemed that no one knew where Yan Mei was.

Tan Songyun's eyes widened when she saw how quiet the crowd was being, so she started looking through the names on her Black Guild Stone.

It was true. Yan Mei's name was no longer on it. The only way someone's name would disappear from the Black Guild Stone was if they had joined a different guild.

A creepy and menacing smile appeared on Tan Songyun's face as she clenched the Black Guild Stone tightly in her hand.

”Listen up, ladies. It looks like we have a deserter on the loose, and you know what we do to deserters. The first to bring her back here in one piece, will be rewarded one medium-tier guild item of your choosing,” Tan Songyun declared.

Hearing that the reward was a medium-tier guild item, many of the girls became excited. Even though it was as dark outside, many of the girls were tempted to begin their search right away.

Chen Li knew that Yan Mei was in the Phoenix-Class, so she knew many of the disciples here didn't stand a chance against her. However, Chen Li didn't bother to tell them that because she didn't really care about them to begin with.

...

”How could there be someone so foolish? She didn't just destroy her own future but also the future of the guild she just joined.”

”She probably thinks they'll protect her.”

”Ha, is there even a guild out there that can hold a candle to ours. That Yan Mei girl is finished.”

...

Everyone believed that Yan Mei had joined a different Major guild because it wouldn't make sense for her to join a Minor guild after being a member of one of the most prestigious Major guilds in the Inner Court. However, Chen Li believed otherwise.

After the General Lecture today, Chen Li watched Yan Mei hold Xiao Fang's hand as she escorted him to the 5th Divisional Classroom. The more she thought about it, the more she was convinced that she joined his guild.

'So she's joined his Nameless guild. It seems things just became a little more interesting...'
