The surrounding spectators were stunned. Seeing the blood-red wings behind me and the halo of the shrine, all of them gaped, unable to make a sound. Not long after, the crowd began to discuss —
"It's... it's Scholar... it's China's Heavenly Domain power..."
"Yeah, it really is Scholar. He killed the archer who ambushed us..."
"That archer is too despicable. He actually interfered in a fair duel!"
"Yeah, that archer is Peerless. He must have ordered him to do so. So shameless. This is Peerless's behavior."
"It looks like Peerless is nothing more than this. The rumor that King Jing of Zhongshan cheated and killed the Barbaric Throne might be true!"
"Yeah, it might be true. Those 213s are fighting to join Peerless. So dumb!"
… …
As expected, the eyes of the crowd were sharp. As long as someone gave them a hint, they would immediately see through all the lies and lies.
"Hmph, so despicable!"
Melancholy let go of Peaceful and walked over with his dagger. He pointed his middle finger at the potion that the archer dropped.
I pulled out the North Dark Sword from the city wall. Bound equipment could not be taken by others, but if I did not take it myself, it would be a huge loss if the system killed me.
Peaceful's expression was cold and she scolded, "Why did you let him do it?"
King Jing of Zhongshan said coldly, "I don't know. Don't ask me, ask him yourself!"
Peaceful snorted and pushed through the crowd to enter White Cloud City.
Paralyzing Wind of Sorrow laughed and asked, "Scholar, so you're here too. It's a good thing you're here, or else I would've fallen into their trap. This Peerless Under Heaven guild really is a piece of trash, hmph!"
"Isn't your girlfriend paging you?
Hurry up and go... if you don't get along, your hormones will go haywire... "
"..."
Melancholy was speechless and said, "Then I am leaving. You should be more harmonious with Ling Xue..."
I shrugged and spread my hands. "I have always been disharmonious..."
"Damn..."
"Too difficult."
Melancholy waved his hand and retreated in defeat. I entered the city and logged off. It was dinner time. Ling Xue also sent me a message.
I've sold most of my stuff, so I'm going offline.
Inside the workshop, it was late autumn, and the girls treasured their last moments of wearing skirts. Each and every one of them was wearing short skirts, gorgeously dressed as if they were going to receive guests.
I asked, "Are there any movements from the Beast Soul City?"
"No!"
Bing Cha shook his head, "But someone saw Barbaric Throne bringing people to S6. If there are no surprises, there will be S6 warriors in India."
"Where's the Wind Demon Altar?"
"This has caused quite a stir. On the Japanese forum, Tian Yi has officially made his comeback. He's gathering the players from Gale City to move to Tragedy City, which is next to Tragedy Coast."
"City of Tragedy?"
"Yes."
Bing Cha chuckled. "Yes, Tragedy City, a city about the size of a county city. It was taken down by Divine Martial and his men, and the Wind Demon Altar was officially established. Just yesterday, at least five million Japanese players entered Tragedy Coast. It seems like they're going to make a comeback."
"Hehe, Tragedy Coast. Then, let's charge over and make Wind Demon Altar officially suffer a tragedy!"
"No!"
Beside me, Ling Xue rejected my idea and said with a smile, "It's too difficult. The Tragic Coast is located far to the north of the map. We'll have to pass through the blockades of Fire Dragon City, Victorious Return City, Flash City, Hero City, and Beast Soul City before we can reach it. In reality, this is incredibly difficult. Even if all of the super guilds of White Cloud City worked together, they still might not be able to break through the blockade."
"I see …" I frowned. "Will Gale City rise from the ashes just like that?"
Ling Xue smiled and hugged my arm. "Don't worry, it's just a small county city. Japan might have reestablished itself, but it's not a threat to us. Right now, our biggest enemies are Holy Helm City and Beast Soul City."
"Mn!
Let's work hard to create more S6 warriors in the coming days! "
"Mn."
… …
Time flew by, and half a month went by in the blink of an eye.
Beast Soul City, Golden City, Heavenly Key City, Silver Spear City, and Beast Soul City continued to fight each other. In the end, each side won and lost, but none of them could touch the foundation of the other side. My prediction was correct. Soul Battle Robes was indeed the second strongest guild in the China server. Seven Star Lamp led Dawn Wind, Waning Moon, and the others to clash head-on with Barbaric Throne, a player from Heaven Domain. Although they won more than they lost, they were able to protect Silver Spear City.
Also, after Ling Xue, Bing Cha, Nangong Yuexi, Fleeting Time, Bing Zhiyi, Brave Heart and more had all changed into S6 sets. Ling Xue and I were carrying them separately, and with our super Luck, 6 out of the 10 S6 sets in the world were already in China.
As for Beast Soul City, it seemed that Barbarian Throne had also created two super S6 female warriors, but they didn't reveal their true strength. For now, there was no way to know how strong they were, but it was clear that they couldn't be stronger than Bing Cha and Bing Zhiyi. Bing Zhiyi relied on her dragon, and Bing Cha relied on her aura. They were both invincible types.
On the other hand, thanks to the CGL's mediation, the China server was developing peacefully. No large-scale civil war broke out, and Peerless Under Heaven grasped this golden opportunity. In the short span of half a month, Peerless Under Heaven grew from a small guild of twenty thousand players to a super guild with a main guild of one hundred thousand elites and twenty subguilds. They had already entered the ranks of the top ten guilds of the China server, ranking sixth, above Wishing Pond and Moon God's Temple!
All the big guilds were eyeing Unparalleled Heaven covetously, but King Jing of Zhongshan was a smart man. He kept a low profile and only occupied a normal territory near the border of Ice Wolf City. He also served as the vanguard of the Indian army at Falling Flame City. This relieved everyone a little.
There was also another big event, and that was the appearance of the fourth person to ascend to Heaven. Surprisingly, it was Russia's number one guild, Snow Night. She had joined the Sea God's Temple and become one of the seventeen temple guardians in the world.
The aura of the Sea God's Temple was very powerful. All allied players within a thousand yards would recover 0.2% of their total HP every second. This was definitely a super aura for prolonged battles. There was no doubt that if Snow Night led her cavalry into battle, she would be invincible. A single Heaven Domain player was as useful as a ten-thousand-man army. This was a fact that was recognized by everyone. Therefore, experts from all over the world were desperately searching for a chance to ascend to Heaven Domain. However, fate was unpredictable, and only a handful of people were able to do so.
In Heavenly Key City, I sat on the steps of the palace. A hundred Heavenly Key Cavalrymen were lined up neatly under the leadership of Purple Knight General Lionheart. Behind them were over a thousand Red Lotus Cavalrymen and tens of thousands of Swift Wind Cavalrymen. This was a secret army. The few times Heavenly Key City was besieged, I resisted the urge to send them out because those attacks weren't fatal.
Next to me, Ling Xue leaned on my shoulder. She held a three-leaf clover in her hand and waved it at the sky. The light on the clover slowly dissipated. Ling Xue giggled and stretched her legs. She was gorgeous and alluring.
… …
"The second WSL International League is about to start. What are your thoughts?" Ling Xue smiled and asked.
"Just take the championship. What else can I think about?"
Ling Xue smiled. "I heard that the WSL rewards will be even better this time. The champion will get ten million, and the China champion will get at least five million!
The equipment reward might be an Ancient God Weapon. En, since the game has developed to this stage, it should be an Ancient God Weapon! "
I scrolled the forums. The second season of the WSL was about to begin. In ten days, the qualifiers would begin, and the four teams that would participate in the International League would be chosen.
Ten days left!
I hoped that I could get the Eternal Armor in these ten days. That way, with the advantages of Ascension, the Eternal Set, and the North Dark Sword, I would definitely get points. I would get one point in the individual competition and another point in the 2v2. Snow Moon would definitely enter the finals.
Right at that moment, Ling Xue suddenly frowned.
"What is it?"
"My phone is ringing. I'm going offline to answer the call!"
"En, come back quickly. We'll go grind the S6 and see if we can get the Water God Halberd."
"Okay!"
After a while, Ling Xue came online. The moment she saw me, she threw herself into my arms and cried, "Shusheng, hurry up and go offline, hurry up and go offline …"
I hurriedly supported her. "What is it?"
"Daddy can't do it, daddy has a heart attack. I can't do it, let's go to Shanghai..." Ling Xue cried until her eyes were hazy and filled with despair.
This was like a bolt from the blue. Ling Tian's body had always been good. He had even come to Suzhou to see me and Ling Xue not long ago. Why did he have to die just like that?
I hurriedly logged out of the game, put on my clothes and rushed to Ling Xue's room. I discovered that she was already wearing a beige dress. She grabbed my arm and cried, "Let's go, let's go …"
I nodded. "Yes, I'll drive. We'll leave immediately..."
I didn't care about anything else. I put on the card and went out the door. Bing Cha chased after me and asked loudly, "Scholar, what's going on?"
"Come back... we'll talk!"
I hugged Ling Xue and rushed out the door. The Passat drove like the wind.
This time, the speed of the car was extremely fast, not inferior to Ling Xue's speed at all. Ling Xue was lying on the seat, crying so hard that her eyes were red. She said in a sobbing voice, "Faster, faster … Daddy, he …"
"I know. Xiao Xue, don't cry. He'll be fine."
My consolation was very weak. It was clear that the doctor on the phone was not optimistic.
… …
At night, Shanghai XX Hospital, one of the best hospitals in the country.
Ling Xue and I rushed into the room. A white-haired doctor stopped us and asked, "Are you Ling Tian's family?"
Ling Xue nodded hurriedly. "I'm his daughter. How is daddy?"
The doctor sighed. "He's exhausted too much. His heart is dying. Why don't you go in and talk to him?
I'm afraid he has less than 24 hours left... "
Ling Xue almost collapsed. She collapsed into my arms and almost fainted. She pulled on the doctor's sleeve and cried. "Please save him, save him..."
The doctor sighed. "Ling Tian is my friend. Do you think I don't want to save him?
For so many years, Ling Tian is the person I respect the most. He gave up almost everything for his work, and his body is deteriorating day by day... "
I nodded. "Thank you, doctor!"
I hugged Ling Xue and said softly, "Xiao Xue, let's go in and see Uncle Ling Tian?"
"Yes!"
Ling Xue was crying. She opened her eyes and walked into the room. When she saw Ling Tian lying on the bed with a haggard face, Ling Xue burst into tears and knelt in front of the window.
"Daddy... daddy..."
