Chapter 105: Ideals Are Full, Reality Is Thin

~6 min read 1,167 words

Su Sheng had just entered a short while ago.

A few people hurriedly walked toward him.

It was the Chairman of the Yaowei Guild, bringing two elite squads.

"Mo Wen Great Deity, I wonder what guidance you have for me here?" the Chairman of Yaowei, a warrior whose in‑game nickname is Yaozhu, said cheerfully to Su Sheng.

It must be said that most guild chairmen in the game are warriors.

Su Sheng grinned, showing a contemptuous smile: "It's not about guidance; I just like this spot for leveling."

"So you can take your people and scram."

Yaozhu's expression stiffened, his smile fading; the saying about not hitting a smiling face, yet Mo Wen Qianchen gave him no face at all.

"Mo Wen Great Deity, I respectfully call you Great Deity; do you think Yaowei really fears you?"

"Given your Mo Wen Qianchen level, would you still fancy this damned place? You're deliberately looking for trouble, aren't you?" Yaozhu said with a dark face.

"I must say, you're really clever," Su Sheng grinned, "Too bad you guessed right, no prize!"

"You… does Yaowei have any offense toward you?" Yaozhu, with a burst of anger, patiently asked.

Although Su Sheng and Qiancheng Muxue, and the matter of the Other Shore Flower were all over the place, Yaowei hadn't interfered at all.

Even if a real fight broke out, Yaowei's core team of five hundred present wouldn't be wiped out by Su Sheng, but leaving Su Sheng behind would be even more impossible.

Yaozhu assessed his own skill level; there's still a gap compared to the people of Qiancheng Muxue and the Other Shore Flower.

Because of that, Yaozhu carefully hopes his core team suffers no loss.

But Su Sheng's single sentence made him slink away with his people, which was too shameful; after all, he has five hundred people.

"No, I just simply find you guys annoying," Su Sheng laughed manically.

That statement is indeed true; Su Sheng is annoyed with all allies of Qiancheng Muxue.

"..." Yaozhu was instantly speechless, not knowing how to speak.

They've even admitted they are the ones looking for trouble, and the reason is simply that they find you annoying. There's nothing to be done; this is a game. If it were reality, Yaozhu would already be so frustrated that he'd be beating the demon spirit Yao Yao Ling to look for Uncle Hat.

Yaozhu naturally knows that Su Sheng's annoyance stems from Yaowei being an ally of Qiancheng Muxue.

But abandoning the status as an ally of Qiancheng Muxue is impossible; being allied with one of the top ten guilds brings many conveniences, and that top‑ten guild is also a reflection of their network.

While Yaozhu's expression was dark and uncertain, Su Sheng showed a sarcastic smile.

Although Yaozhu is self‑aware, Yaowei's five hundred members aren't exactly afraid of Su Sheng, but whether Su Sheng could survive a fight is unknown; Yaowei would definitely suffer heavy losses, so Yaozhu kept maneuvering to avoid conflict.

Yet even with Su Sheng's great reputation, there are always some clueless guys who think highly of themselves.

At this moment, an assassin had silently crept behind Su Sheng.

In stealth mode, the assassin quietly reached Su Sheng's back; what he intended was obvious.

Actually Su Sheng had already noticed him; if Su Sheng wanted, a swift turn would have instantly killed him.

"Tch~"

"What, Mo Wen Great Deity, you still have to be instantly killed by my move!"

The Yaowei assassin who had slipped behind Su Sheng, seeing him defenseless, smiled.

He is Yaowei's chief assassin; his skill is indeed top‑notch, so normally the Chairman Yaozhu treats him politely.

His gear is the best Yaowei Guild can assemble; his weapon is a Level 20 blue dagger with quite good stats.

He has always thought he's not inferior to the Assassin Alliance's Ten Court Yanluo, and he joined Yaowei to use it as a springboard, eventually to join Qiancheng Muxue and become Qiancheng Muxue's chief assassin!

But now he has no notable record, and Qiancheng Muxue's people still look down on him. When he instantly kills that Mo Wen Qianchen, a guy their Qiancheng Muxue thousand‑person team couldn't deal with, he will have taken him down, and Qiancheng Muxue's people will have to beg him to join them.

He just hasn't taken the time to learn the specifics of Qiancheng Muxue.

The chief assassin of Qiancheng Muxue will always be just one person: the Chairman's wife and Deputy President… Du Juan!

Knowing that he's already Level 20, after acquiring the skills Bone‑Breaking and Weak‑point Determination, stacking a hundred points of killing intent, a combo with Weak‑point Determination using the finishing slash can instantly kill those Level 25 minions!

Those Level 25 minions have tens of thousands of HP.

Even this Mo Wen Qianchen, no matter how twisted, still has tens of thousands of HP, right?

That's his thinking.

But unfortunately, the idea is abundant, while reality is skinny!

The Yaozhu confronting Su Sheng is in a tangled state.

Yet Su Sheng suddenly showed a hint of amused smile.

Yaozhu was slightly startled, then his pupils contracted sharply!

A Cold Ray suddenly lit up behind Su Sheng, and a figure emerged.

Almost simultaneously, Su Sheng turned and swung his sword.

Assassinate! Hidden‑break strike!

Assassination multiplier 1.8, Hidden‑break boost 1.9.

Almost a 3.7 multiplier, surpassing Master Fa's Thunder, nearly matching Su Sheng's lethal Deadly Lion Fang on a weak spot.

Of course, a Hidden‑break strike in a battle only has one chance.

As chief assassin, with over 200 attack power combined with such high multiplier, this attack's power threshold nearly reaches over 800!

But unfortunately…

Su Sheng's dual defense reached 867!

Moreover, Su Sheng turned in time, so the assassin's back‑attack passive didn't trigger.

Ding!

The dagger finally lodged in Su Sheng's chest, producing a crisp sound against his wutong wood armor.

-11

Not bad, a double‑digit white number...

But, almost as the dagger stabbed Su Sheng, Su Sheng's Demon Fang Long Sword also swept across the assassin's neck, with no flashy moves—just a pure normal attack!

That assassin had both skills and a Piercing Hidden Strike; only with all those stacked did he reach a threshold just over 800, but Su Sheng only needed a simple sword swing.

Moreover... it was still the neck!

Weak Spot Attack!

Even without a critical hit.

-1414!

Yellow Weak Point Damage!

The assassin's tiny frame was instantly killed.

Before turning into white light, his face still bore anticipation for the future!

Looking at this scene, it seemed as if Su Sheng had suddenly swung his sword, and then the assassin voluntarily bumped his own neck onto Su Sheng's blade.

But in reality, it was his dagger that first struck Su Sheng!

Battle prompt: You have suffered... a malicious attack; you can retaliate against their team!

Su Sheng grinned; this was exactly what he had been waiting for!

Su Sheng deliberately slowed his movements just so he could let the assassin hit him first!
