42: Chapter 42 Re-establishing the Covenant

"Get him! Chop him into mincemeat for me!"

The Revived Luo Long roared through gritted teeth; at this moment, he felt like a complete clown!

He didn't even need to look to imagine that Ming Zhan and Li Yujian nearby were probably laughing their heads off.

Everything had been going perfectly, but it all came to a screeching halt the moment Ye Qing appeared.

He had lost all rationality, his eyes a terrifying shade of red.

The players of the Dragon Soaring Guild reacted immediately to the command, drawing their weapons and charging forward.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ye Qing held the magic scroll and didn't move an inch, with only a faint ring of red light emerging around him.

"Die!"

Wang Kun, seeing his enemy with eyes filled with hatred, was the first to charge, followed by dozens of players, but in the next instant, the red light erupted right in front of them.

"Resist Fire Ring!"

Boom!

A ring of red light expanded outward in an arc. Everyone lunging at him suddenly felt as if they had been struck in the chest by a heavy rubber mallet; their breath caught, and they were sent flying back like birds with broken wings.

Before they could even hit the ground, a figure who had moved away in advance suddenly leapt up. Under Wang Kun's incredulous gaze, a long blade instantly pierced through his chest. The blade was then withdrawn as the figure leaped toward the next target amidst the wild winds, a voice ringing out simultaneously.

"hasaige!"

"hasaige!"

"hasaige!"

In an instant, four or five players were disemboweled, while the rest crashed heavily to the ground.

At this moment, everyone was stunned, the players staring blankly at the scene.

Initially, they thought Ye Qing was just a clown brought in by the Dragon Soaring Guild, but now... *Hiss!!!*

Looking at the chaotic situation, they gasped sharply, only regaining their senses after a long while.

"Transcendent!"

"Holy crap!"

“Has Dragon Soaring kicked a steel plate this time?"

"I was wondering why this Ye Qing was so calm and confident from the start."

"Turns out it's because of his strength."

Everyone couldn't help but marvel, and even the players of the Dragon Soaring Guild hesitated.

If it were a Transcendent NPC, they could just grind him down with Revives.

But against a Transcendent player, what was the point? Even if they sacrificed dozens or hundreds of lives to kill him, he would just Revive for them to see.

At this moment, Luo Long was forced to regain his sanity, though the atmosphere remained heavy.

However, Ming Zhan and Li Yujian were like spectators at a show, incredibly happy.

"Ouch, my old bones."

"I say, Brother Ye Qing, it's fine to blast Luo Long, but why did you blast us away too?"

"Exactly, exactly."

"Hey, brother, what's your name?"

"Zhou Rin."

The spectators chatted happily, but soon moved on to the most crucial question.

"Brother Ye Qing, where did you get this magic scroll?"

"Can it be bought with money? Real-world money or in-game money, either is fine."

"The magic scroll was entrusted to me by someone else; I won't say specifically who."

"For now, I'm only responsible for the sales. I can accept other items containing Elemental Power for purchase."

"However, Magic Beast skins are preferred."

Ye Qing spoke up as he looked at the crowd gathering around him. The independent players below the stage also watched and listened intently, with people occasionally shouting questions.

After this, almost every player in Oak Town would know he had magic scrolls and that they could be traded for Magic Beast skins.

This excellent result made him shoot a proud look toward Zhou Rin.

Meanwhile, a disheveled Luo Long walked back and stared at Ye Qing.

"Ye Qing!"

Ye Qing ignored him, introducing the scrolls to those around him while unrolling three magic scrolls and pointing them toward Luo Long.

"These are all Magic Spell Models for the Wind Blade Technique. They are single-target attacks with high power. Does everyone need another demonstration?"

Luo Long, targeted by three magic scrolls, instantly stiffened and took a few steps to the left.

Ye Qing pressed his hands on the magic scrolls and slightly aimed them to the left.

Luo Long took a few steps to the right.

The magic scrolls followed to the right.

Luo Long's expression froze slightly, while the group next to Ye Qing began to jeer.

"Try it, try it, try it one more time."

"Yeah, I didn't see clearly just now."

"Alright," Ye Qing replied.

Seeing his hands pressed onto the magic scrolls, Luo Long quickly took a few more steps. Fortunately, Ye Qing didn't turn the magic scrolls back toward him, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

But then he heard Ye Qing say,

"By the way, everyone, don't misunderstand. Aiming a magic scroll doesn't mean you have to point it directly at the target; you can aim it sideways. You can release it however you want, as long as you lock onto the enemy with your Spiritual Power."

"Like this, the magic scroll isn't aimed at Guild Leader Luo Long, right?"

"But in reality..."

Ye Qing looked at Luo Long and grinned. Luo Long's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately performed a 'lazy donkey roll' to try and dodge, but nothing happened.

"I don't have Spiritual Power, so I can't do it. After you guys buy them, if anyone has points in spirit, you can try it."

"As for now, I won't be testing them. These magic scrolls are for sale; I can't just waste them for a demo."

As his voice fell, Luo Long's face turned incredibly ugly, and bursts of laughter erupted from the surroundings.

At this moment, a hint of regret rose in his heart. This alliance meeting was completely ruined, and his image was now no different from that of a clown.

The advantage his main account held was wasted; what could have been a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had turned into a stage play, all because of Ye Qing.

However, having calmed down completely, he suddenly realized a fact.

In the next moment, he had someone bring out a Wolf Skin and a crystal core. Their materials were exactly the same as those of the magic scrolls.

Luo Long then walked up to Ye Qing, holding the Wolf Skin and crystal core in both hands. He took a deep breath and spoke.

"Brother Ye Qing, I lost my composure just now. I was momentarily blinded by impulse, and remembering how we were always suppressed by you guys before, I did some classless things. I apologize to you and to the Green Leaf Guild."

"I will have someone post a formal apology on the forum using our Dragon Soaring Guild's official account later."

"This Magic Beast skin and this beast core are meant to represent my apology."

Luo Long's sincere appearance took Ye Qing by surprise, while Ming Zhan and Li Yujian nearby couldn't help but widen their eyes, their teeth aching in secret envy.

Ye Qing reacted in an instant. He hadn't intended to forgive him, but then he glanced at the beast skin and the crystal core.

Hiss... from the usable parts of that beast skin, he could cut at least eight magic scrolls, plus there was a Magic Beast crystal core.

Hiss, he was simply giving too much.

"This beast skin and crystal core... Oh, you're being too polite. There's no need for such formality."

"Just a small matter, it's settled with a few words."

Ye Qing said with a beaming smile as he took the beast skin and crystal core.

"As for the apology on the forum, that won't be necessary. It's just a small thing."

"Oh, by the way, do you want to buy these magic scrolls? There are five in total. Why don't you all discuss how to split them?"

"I'll buy them. I want all five. Can I advance some beast skins? I can pay extra..."

"Luo Long, you're full of crap!"

Before Luo Long could finish, Ming Zhan started cursing. Li Yujian was not to be outdone either, and an argument broke out instantly.

After quite a while, it ended with a distribution plan: three for the Dragon Soaring Guild, one for the War Alliance, and one for Blood Moon.

Following that, at Luo Long's invitation, the four parties sat down again at the tidied table. Reflecting on today's events, he spoke slowly once more.

"A lot has happened today, and things were a bit chaotic, but regardless..."

"With a great enemy before us, I still suggest that the four of us jointly form a covenant!"

The previously boisterous scene fell silent as everyone sank into deep thought.

The players watching the commotion also quieted down one after another.
