MMORPG: Divine Monster Transmuter

Chapter 836 - One Last Member

Chapter 836: One Last Member

Ximen Chuixue had joined the Squadron by his own volition.

That meant that they only needed two more people, and they were Lu Xiaofeng and Lin Xiaotong.

Both of them were not in Xingyue City.

Lu Xiaofeng was in Yongfeng City and Lin Xiaotong in Maigu City.

After saying goodbye to Rosa, Jiang Feng then led Feng Qingyang, Yin Mei, and Ximen Chuixue into the Tianji Hall, heading toward Yongfeng City.

Rosa looked at the four of them and was lost deep in her own thoughts.

“Princess, was what they said true? That Jiang Feng is so generous? Doesn’t that mean he is incurring terrible losses?” Xiaoju did not know much about Squadrons, but she knew that what Jiang Feng was doing would make him lose a lot, and creating his Squadrons would be pointless.

Rosa then smiled bitterly and said, “What do you know? While he does lose some things, he bought their loyalty instead. Didn’t you see that Ximen Chuixue rejected me despite me offering him so many things? Instead, he offered to join the Huaxia Squadron. If I’m right, there would be a lot of people wanting to join the Huaxia Squadron. That is how reputation and popularity work!”

“Compared with the other factions such as us that focus on making a profit, he would have a stronger foundation in the Xingyue Area instead. Reputation and popularity are also a type of asset. Unfortunately, no one is magnanimous and wealthy enough to emulate him. If I have enough resources and wealth I would have done the same thing as well. I wonder where all his resources come from?!”

“Princess, you would praise him every time you talk about him. Do you...”

“Stop whatever you’re thinking!”

‘Do I like him?’ Rosa thought to herself, but she quickly shook her head. He was quite charismatic but she was simply admiring him. She did not really like him that much.

***

Yongfeng City was a very small city located at the edge of the Xingyue Area.

There were plenty of people coming and going within this city, however. It would suit many of the players who did not want to go to big cities.

There were monsters that were weaker here and it was easier for them to survive.

Lu Xiaofeng was living in a small residence in this city.

“He has been greatly affected by Hua Manlou’s death. He has been hiding here alone since then. I was the one who dragged him to the Xingyue Area last time when you got here. I wanted to form a Squadron with you back then, but unfortunately, you chose Zhou Botong. We went our separate ways afterward,” Ximen Chuixue said without any emotion on his face.

“That means that he is willing to join a Squadron?” Jiang Feng asked.

“Correct.” Ximen Chuixue nodded. “He has yet to avenge his friend’s death. He would join a Squadron because he alone can’t defeat the Demon Palace’s leader!”

“Are you telling me that Hua Manlou was killed by the Demon Palace’s leader? But you are all at Heaven Realm Greater Completion, how did he manage to kill him?” Jiang Feng asked Ximen Chuixue.

Logically speaking this place’s power ceiling was Heaven Realm Greater Completion. When they were at the same level, one could not stop the other even if they tried to escape.

“He used some kind of strange trick to temporarily have a breakthrough. And he immediately possessed great power. Hua Manlou died when he tried to save Lu Xiaofeng,” Ximen Chuixue said.

“I understand now!” Jiang Feng nodded.

From the conversation, he understood that during the war between the Xingyue Area and Tianmo Area, the Demon Palace’s leader had used some special ability to temporarily increase his power to the Mythic Realm.

Once he had reached the Mythic Realm, even if it was just fake Mythic, he was not someone that players at Heaven Realm Greater Completion level could deal with.

That was why Hua Manlou would die in that war.

The four of them walked slowly until they reached an ordinary residence.

That was where Lu Xiaofeng was living.

It was simple but full of warmth.

Before they even entered, they already saw a fruit tree swaying along with the wind. There were large fruits on it and they looked like apples. However, they were not apples, but a kind of fruit called Red Fruit.

He knocked on the door.

Creak...

The door was opened up, and a middle-aged man with a mustache appeared before them. His eyes were filled with unspoken sadness, and that sorrow was somehow very captivating.

“Jiang Feng, Xiao Xue? Why are you here?”

Xiao Xue?

Jiang Feng, Feng Qingyang, and Yin Mei all turned to look at Ximen Chuixue.

“Pfft...” Yin Mei could not help but laugh out loud.

Ximen Chuixue immediately unsheathed his sword and attacked Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng caught the tip of Ximen Chuixue’s sword with his two fingers and said with a smile, “Hehe. No need to be so angry. I could not help myself.”

Jiang Feng and Yin Mei felt chills run down their spines when he saw them exchanging attacks for the first time.

They did not even see how Ximen Chuixue attacked. He was so quick that they did not even notice when he drew his sword.

And since Lu Xiaofeng could easily catch Ximen Chuixue’s attack, he was at the same level as Ximen Chuixue. He was extremely powerful as well!

“Team up with me and I will forgive you!” Ximen Chuixue said.

Before Jiang Feng even had a chance to speak, he was already trying to recruit him as he had already joined the Huaxia Squadron. Since the two of them were already quite close with each other, they could already work well together if they fought together in a Squadron.

“You joined the Huaxia Squadron?” Lu Xiaofeng looked at Ximen Chuixue in shock.

“You know that there are many things that cannot be done alone. The only way to do that is to join a Squadron. The Huaxia Squadron is quite good!” Ximen Chuixue said without any expression on his face.

From the beginning until the end, he did not show much of an expression at all. It was just like in the book. He was someone that was extremely cold. He would only smile for the sword, and cry for the sword!

“Very well!” Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile as he let go of Ximen Chuixue’s sword.

Ximen Chuixue had also sheathed his sword.

“Welcome, Senior Lu,” Jiang Feng took out a Squadron Badge and gave it to Lu Xiaofeng.

Lu Xiaofeng accepted the badge and dripped a drop of his blood on it, and he successfully joined the Huaxia Squadron.

“Kid. Since Xiao... This cold man and I joined your Squadron, shouldn’t you show us your generosity? I have received news that you are very rich! And very stupid!” Lu Xiaofeng said to Jiang Feng with a smile.

“I’m not stupid!” Jiang Feng objected with a laugh and then stared at Yin Mei who was trying to hide her giggle.

Once what happened got out, everyone would know that he was rich and foolish. His reputation was ruined thanks to her.

“As the captain, I will naturally show my appreciation when you seniors join us. Here are two Low-Heaven Beast Pills. One for each of you,” He then took out two Low-Heaven Beast Pills and gave them to Ximen Chuixue and Lu Xiaofeng each.

“You are so generous! I like you!” Lu Xiaofeng said with a smile on his face as he accepted the Low-Heaven Beast Pill.

Ximen Chuixue and he were two complete opposites.

No matter what happened, Lu Xiaofeng would always smile. He would smile when he was sad. He would still smile when he was crying. And when Hua Manlou died for him, he was still smiling. But that was a smile of anger.

Meanwhile, no matter what happened, Ximen Chuixue would remain expressionless. His face was blank when he was sad. His face was still blank when he was crying. His face was also blank when he was furious!

Perhaps it was because of this extremity, the two of them became good friends.

“Come on. The second Huaxia Squadron is still missing one last member!”

With Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuixue in the Squadron, they were only missing one last person. Lin Xiaotong!
