Volume 9, Chapter 37 – Conversation

King of Paladins, Yunchou.

Before this, Xingyu Muxi was not unaware of Yunchou’s existence. However, because Yunchou himself did not have much interaction with her, Xingyu Muxi did not pay him much attention.

But… among the reinforcements requested this time, Yunchou was actually listed among the top priorities. In other words, Yunchou was someone Xingyu Muxi absolutely had to pull into her own camp.

“Yunchou… nice to meet you, I’m Xingyu Muxi, the new Elven Queen of Nature. As for my profession, it can barely be considered a ranger.”

After inheriting the power of the previous Elven Queen, Xingyu Muxi’s profession did not change much. It was only that her attributes and skills had undergone a qualitative transformation.

Her combat power was indeed Throne-tier, enough to crush Legendary-tier beings.

“I know you… Xingyu Muxi. Not only that, I also know the purpose of your coming here to specifically find Andrew this time.”

Yunchou’s gaze rested on Xingyu Muxi with a somewhat meaningful look. The words he spoke, however, caused Xingyu Muxi’s brows to knit slightly.

‘He knew the purpose?’

Although she did not know what Yunchou meant by knowing her purpose, Xingyu Muxi instinctively felt a sense of discomfort rising in her heart.

Although communicating with smart people could sometimes be very easy, at other times, smart people would also subconsciously reject other smart people.

And at this moment, Xingyu Muxi instinctively felt that sense of rejection… or perhaps, she subconsciously felt a bit of dislike toward the youth before her.

“Yunchou, what you said during that match, did you say it that way on purpose? Was your goal to make me directly fall out with the organization?”

Leaving aside the brief exchange between Xingyu Muxi and Yunchou, after being directly ignored by Yunchou, Andrew finally took the initiative to pick a fight with Yunchou.

And what he brought up was precisely the few words Yunchou had spoken at the end of the decisive battle in that match Tianyin had reported.

Sowing discord.

“Andrew, that’s not quite right of you.”

Facing Andrew’s somewhat angry questioning, Yunchou explained calmly and unhurriedly.

“Indeed, what I said back then did carry the suspicion of sowing discord, but wasn’t it you who actually took action and turned against them? I merely gave you a reason that felt justified to you. As for how you handled it, that was your own business… so the outcome of this situation isn’t because of me. If you want to blame someone, you should blame yourself…”

“You bastard…”

When it came to Yunchou, Andrew could be said to understand him a little. And in Andrew’s impression, Yunchou was the type of person who schemed in the shadows. Therefore, toward Yunchou’s explanation that sounded reasonable and well grounded, Andrew directly chose to ignore it.

“Tsk… I’m actually too lazy to talk to you about this kind of thing. Now that things are already like this, do you still want to go back to being controlled by the organization? Let’s put this matter aside for now. Aren’t you at all curious about the request from a newly advanced Throne-tier who came looking for you on purpose?”

Yunchou very skillfully avoided the point of conflict with Andrew, and then very smoothly shifted the topic onto Xingyu Muxi.

And this guidance indeed caused Andrew to subconsciously shift his attention onto Xingyu Muxi.

“Go on. What exactly is your purpose in coming to find me?”

Andrew believed himself to be a smart person, and in reality, that was true. So compared to what others said, Andrew was more willing to believe his own feelings.

And at this moment, Andrew suddenly felt that what Xingyu Muxi was about to say next was very likely to be real.

Seeing that Andrew was willing to listen to her explanation, Xingyu Muxi also cast a slightly surprised glance at Yunchou, who had created this situation. Although she instinctively felt some rejection toward Yunchou, Xingyu Muxi would not deny that Yunchou had provided a bit of help in persuading Andrew.

“Actually, my purpose is very simple…”

Since she intended to speak, Xingyu Muxi naturally planned to state the facts. However, out of personal considerations, Xingyu Muxi still subconsciously withheld some information about Tianyin.

At the very least, she did not reveal the fact that Tianyin was the Supreme, that is, the game’s creator.

“The world is about to be destroyed? In three days?”

Although he had already prepared himself mentally to believe what Xingyu Muxi was saying… when he actually heard the facts she described, the corner of Andrew’s mouth still twitched uncontrollably.

“Not only the game world, but the real world as well? And by that time, even Throne-tier beings won’t be able to escape death in the end?”

“Yes…”

In response to Andrew’s questions, Xingyu Muxi nodded very politely. However, her gaze still unintentionally glanced at Yunchou, who wore an expression of I already knew it would be like this.

“At that time, not only you, everyone will lose their lives in the Supreme’s slaughter.”

“Although Throne-tier is the ceiling of this world, at least in my eyes… if a single Throne-tier faces the Supreme, the only ending is death.”

When someone is killed, they die. And players who possessed powerful templates had already lost the ability to revive after death.

That is to say, if they were killed in the game, they would also die miserably in the real world.

And Andrew, who had inherited Throne-tier power, although indeed extremely strong in combat, had also completely lost the ability unique to players to revive endlessly. Therefore, Andrew at this moment was actually a person who was very afraid of death.

That was why Xingyu Muxi chose to use the danger to life to force Andrew to accept reality.

“So even I can’t avoid it?”

To be honest, Andrew felt a bit panicked in his heart.

After all, no one could restart endlessly like Yunchou, nor could they face death as calmly as Xingyu Muxi.

“Alright… I’ll tentatively choose to believe this matter… but for me to completely believe it, it’s still a bit difficult. However, since the decisive battle is three days later, I don’t mind heading to Eden after three days to find out exactly what’s going on.”

The matter itself was not complicated, and Andrew’s choice was understandable.

After expressing his stance, Andrew’s gaze shifted, landing on Yunchou, who had been silent for a very long time.

“Then what about you? Yunchou, what do you think about this world destroying crisis?”

“What do I think?”

Being asked this question out of nowhere, Yunchou shook his head somewhat helplessly.

“You’re worried I’ll just sit on the sidelines then, right? Afraid that after the world destroying crisis is resolved, I’ll stab you in the back?”

In truth, Andrew’s concern was far too complicated. At the very least, Yunchou had no intention of dealing with Andrew after the decisive battle.

Because for the decisive battle three days later, Yunchou had already prepared himself mentally to be killed at any time by Tianyin, who was the Supreme.
