Chapter 179: Revisiting the Story

Seeing Su Ba about to leave, Leng Shao's eyes flicked, and he came up with an idea.

Leng Shao immediately spoke, persuaded Su Ba to stay, and pretended to agree that Su Ba could go in to fight a few monsters.

Although Su Ba was somewhat suspicious of their motives, without a Mist Crystal Core he couldn't craft a Mist Talisman.

After thinking it over, Su Ba nodded in agreement and entered the Training Spot.

Originally, Leng Shao's thought was that, seeing Su Ba alone and being a practitioner, he would, by a careless slip, be killed by the mist butterflies.

After all, those mist butterflies have very high attack.

At that time, it would be great if a black-and-white robe could drop.

Unexpectedly, Su Ba still had a couple of tricks; after all, he is also a Hidden Class and already level 28.

The gear he wore, with Su Sheng's and Lin Huan's support, was also not lacking.

With a set that both cuts and strikes, those fragile mist butterflies were instantly dealt with.

Seeing this, Leng Shao was startled for a moment, but immediately changed his mind.

He immediately shouted and called the other Core Members of Qiancheng Muxue, saying Su Ba had intruded into their exclusive Training Spot to snatch monsters.

Then he rallied everyone to strike, instantly killing Su Ba.

The Yin‑Yang robe, of course, didn't drop, but a level‑25 blue cloth armor did.

It could be considered a minor treasure.

The level also dropped by one.

Su Sheng's gaze flickered with a Cold Ray.

Qiancheng Muxue…

Originally, at this stage everyone's main focus was on the impact.

But now it seems you are not willing to settle down.

"I'm coming back now."

Su Sheng sent a reply and tore open a Return City Scroll.

The settlement is Wutong Town, so although Su Sheng used a Return City Scroll in Hongshan Town, he still returned to the square in Wutong Town.

On the way to meet Huan Jie, Su Sheng opened Chen Guan's Private Chat.

"Kong Lang, gather the brothers, it's time to work."

"Alright."

Chen Guan had no questions, only one reply.

At the same time, Chen Guan sent Su Sheng a party invitation.

Su Sheng silently accepted.

After a short while, the remaining eight Ten Court Yanluo, along with Shen Yang and Ying Yi, all joined the party.

…

"Dad."

Su Sheng, Huan Jie, and Huakai's group met up and looked at their own dad.

However, to be safe, Su Sheng went back to the warehouse and stored some items.

"Sorry for causing you trouble again," Su Wenhao said, a bit depressed.

"It's fine, that's not your problem," Su Sheng smiled and sent a trade request.

"Dad, learn this first."

The Prison Cage Talisman was placed in the trade window.

It had been agreed in the morning; Su Wenhao said nothing, and after accepting the trade, he learned the Prison Cage Talisman skill.

"Sheng brother!"

At that moment, a voice rang out of nowhere.

"Are the brothers all ready?"

Su Sheng didn't even turn his head.

It was Chen Guan, in Invisibility, and in party mode Su Sheng could see Chen Guan's location.

"Then let's go, we'll revisit the story from seven years ago with Qiancheng Muxue properly."

After speaking, Su Sheng's figure slowly faded.

…

"What is A‑Sheng doing?" Su Ba asked, looking bewildered.

"What seven‑year‑old story? What does it mean?"

"Going to avenge you," Lin Huan replied with a smile.

Since Su Sheng revealed his identity, Lin Huan had specifically investigated the Assassin Alliance and Qiancheng Muxue matters.

Moreover, Lin Huan cleverly extracted information from Dong Jiaojiao, one of the Ten Court Yanluo, and basically learned some details about the Assassin Alliance.

Of course, Lin Huan also discovered that Su Sheng's first love was Du Xue.

Although Lin Huan said nothing, his self‑appointed 'child foster husband' was invaded by a wild fox, leaving Lin Huan in a rather unpleasant mood,

In childhood, that word "sister" gave Lin Huan a new life.

Taking advantage of the opening was one thing, but it turned out to be a backstabbing wild fox.

During high school, while Su Sheng lived on campus and rarely went home, it gave those wild foxes an opportunity.

…

…

The mist butterflies' Training Spot.

Qiancheng Leng Shao drew his bow and shot an arrow, felling a mist butterfly with one shot; he walked over, picked up the dropped mist crystal, and tossed it in his hand.

Thinking of the black-and-white-robed Taoist ahead, Qiancheng Leng Shao felt a bit regretful that the black-and-white robe had not dropped.

What he wanted was exactly this; although mist crystals don't drop from every mist butterfly, the drop rate is actually not low.

For now he didn't know what it was used for; before, he just vendored them, but after that Taoist came over, Qiancheng Leng Shao had people start collecting them.

Just in case it might be useful later.

Although the black-and-white robe didn't drop, a level 25 minor top-grade item did; the Taoist's gear looked decent.

Right, I also forgot to ask that Taoist what the mist crystal is used for—what an oversight.

I should have made small talk back then.

…

Swish~

Just then.

Suddenly a cold ray flashed.

Qiancheng Leng Shao had no time to react.

Stun Club!

Assassin's level 30 skill.

Dizziness!

Swish swish swish~

Before he could even unleash his combo, let alone the final piercing finisher, Qiancheng Leng Shao turned into white light.

Chen Guan tossed his dagger in surprise.

The already level 30 Chen Guan had fully changed his gear.

In his hand was still a level 35 purple weapon; Qiancheng Leng Shao was merely a squishy archer, naturally unable to withstand Chen Guan's burst.

At the same time, large swaths of cold light flared.

Here, over two thousand Qiancheng Muxue players.

In an instant, over five hundred melted away.

Moreover, each of them was a core position such as cloth-armored mage or priest, with a minority of leather-armored archers; these squishies, under the assassin's sneak attack burst, naturally had no chance of survival.

"Assassin Alliance! Assassin Alliance attack!"

Instantly, the Qiancheng Muxue players screamed in shock.

"Leng Shao was insta-killed, quickly contact the Chairman."

They are the core team of Qiancheng Muxue, basically veteran players who have followed Qiancheng Muxue all along.

The opposing Assassin Alliance are old rivals, so even without orders they spontaneously began organizing defense.

They know very well that the Assassin Alliance's tactics mean the assassins now appearing are only half.

The other half of the Assassin Alliance players are lurking in the dark, waiting to reinforce.

Clatter~

The remaining over one thousand Qiancheng Muxue players began to group together.

As for counterattacking, they know that any counter will bring out the remaining Assassin Alliance players to reinforce, and their formation isn't ready yet, so they'd surely lose.

Therefore, grouping up to form a formation is the first task.

So the Qiancheng Muxue players promptly grouped, with warriors and knights on the outside, archers, mages, and priests inside.

Assassins also immediately entered invisibility.

And the over five hundred Assassin Alliance players who had left combat re-entered stealth.

As the Assassin Alliance players completely vanished, the Qiancheng Muxue players immediately heightened their vigilance.

They knew the Assassin Alliance players' second wave of attack would come imminently.

But once their formation was complete, they also gained a bit of confidence.

But…

Swish!

Cold light flared.

A player clad in a cape appeared at the very edge of the Qiancheng Muxue players' formation.

He swung his longsword, tracing a blade of light.

Binding Blade!

The sharp blade sliced a warrior player's neck.

-7112

Weak Point Critical Hit!

Instantly, that warrior player turned into white light.

One sword, instant kill!

"Mo Wen Qianchen!!"

The Qiancheng Muxue players became even more fearful.
