God Slayer, with a history of fifty years, is currently ranked seventh on the Great Xia national squad leaderboard.

It has a total of 5.321 million members, with the main force stationed in the capital city of Great Xia, Beijing.

Its influence spans across thirty-four provinces of Great Xia, covering a total of two hundred seventy-five cities!

This includes Jiang Province, Linhai City, where Lu Ming is currently located.

Looking at the information found on the webpage.

At this moment, Lu Ming finally understood the meaning behind Ye Ling'er's words, "His power is overwhelming, killing us is as easy as squashing two ants."

If this person is a high-ranking member of God Slayer, then he indeed wields immense power.

But!

"No matter how powerful you are, I will make you pay for what you've done!"

Murderous intent surged in Lu Ming's eyes.

His target would be the entire God Slayer Squad!

Meanwhile.

In the capital city of Great Xia, Beijing.

At the Star Delight Sea Restaurant.

In a private room exuding opulence and luxury.

A girl in an elegant white dress, with a stunning face, sat at the dining table, as if on pins and needles.

She said anxiously, "I want to go back to Linhai!"

At the same time, a man sitting across the table, wearing a half-face mask, was leisurely cutting his steak, and said calmly, "No rush, Ling'er, let's talk after dinner."

"But he's my younger brother!" Ye Ling'er clenched her dress tightly, her eyes flickering, "He died so inexplicably..."

The man across from her remained calm, "I know, after all, he was my brother-in-law too."

Tears fell from Ye Ling'er's beautiful eyes as she cried, "I don't believe my brother died in an accident!"

"But the two I sent to him were both three-star qualified experts, and your brother himself wasn't weak, with a two-star qualified account and a full set of Black Iron Equipment."

"And as far as I know, the two who went in with them, one was a one-star Trickster without full equipment, and the other was a plain Mage. Even if they had the motive, they didn't have the strength to match your brother."

The man across the table stopped cutting his steak and reached out to hold Ye Ling'er's fair hand.

"Ling'er, don't worry. I just got off the phone with the high-ups in Ancient Egypt. They said they've detected the aura of a god in the sixth layer they just invaded! If we can find the god rumored to be sleeping in the Sky Abyss world, we might be able to use the power of Osiris, the God of Resurrection, to bring back those who died in the Sky Abyss world!"

Hearing this, Ye Ling'er was overjoyed, "Really?"

The man kissed Ye Ling'er's fair and slender fingers and said, "Rest assured, once there's news of the God of Resurrection, I'll spare no expense to have the people of Ancient Egypt revive your brother immediately."

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

"Also, I've notified our God Slayer division in Linhai. Regardless of whether it was an accident, I'll make those two pay with their lives for your brother's death!"

"Thank you, honey!" Ye Ling'er said with both joy and guilt, "I'm sorry, you trusted me so much, but in the end, I couldn't get the Scroll of Deification from Lu Ming..."

The man was indifferent.

"It's okay."

"With my current status and power, the Scroll of Deification is just the icing on the cake. Even without it, it doesn't affect me much."

"It's just a pity for you, Ling'er, wasting three years of your youth and time on that loser for the Scroll of Deification. Don't worry, Ling'er, I'll treat you even better in the future!"

Ye Ling'er smiled happily, "Mm!"

...

As night turned to day.

Before eight in the morning, Lu Ming was awakened by the sounds of "uh uh ah ah" from next door.

"Fing hell, I can't believe this!"

"Don't you have anything else to do all day? Are you two glued to the bed?"

Just as he finished speaking.

The sound of instruments came from another room.

"Love even in death! Without indulgence, it's not satisfying..."

Caught between the two, Lu Ming couldn't take it anymore.

Damn it.

Time to move!

Once he earned enough money, he'd move out immediately!

Although Linhai City wasn't a first-tier city, housing prices weren't cheap.

A mediocre place started at a million, and a good one could be two to three million.

Lu Ming checked his pockets and realized.

He still needed to make money!

So, after washing up, he had some steamed dumplings at the breakfast shop downstairs and went back home to log in.

[Ding~ Welcome back to the Sky Abyss world, esteemed ten-star qualified account player, Nether!]

With this system prompt, which he never got tired of hearing, Lu Ming appeared in Moonfall Town.

Clearing the novice village in just one day was unprecedented.

Lu Ming went to the teleportation array in Moonfall Town and spent 1 silver coin to activate the teleportation.

Whoosh!

With a flash of white light, Lu Ming disappeared from the teleportation array.

[Ding~ Welcome to the second layer, Revival. You are currently in the main city, Starlight City!]

In an instant, Lu Ming appeared in a magnificent city.

As everyone knows, the layout of Sky Abyss is divided by layers.

For example, the novice area Moonfall Town, where Lu Ming was before, belongs to the first layer, Calamity.

Players who reach level 10 and above can enter the second layer, Revival.

And Starlight City corresponds to the three major novice areas of 1946, 1947, and 1948. Players from these novice areas, upon entering the second layer, will gather in Starlight City.

Correspondingly, these are Jiang Province's Hanghai City, Linhai City, and Yunzou City.

"Unfortunately, God Slayer Squad's information confidentiality is too good. There's no way to find their specific influence and layout in Starlight City online."

Just as Lu Ming was troubled by this.

He suddenly received a WeChat message!

Opening it, he found it was from Qing Yan, whom he had added as a friend in the Scarlet Zone dungeon.

"You should have reached the second layer by now, right?"

"By the way, a heads-up: God Slayer Squad's division in Starlight City has about twenty thousand members. Their division leader's ID is God Slayer, Moon, and their real-world location is in Hanghai City!"

"Not a high level, a level 19 Assassin, but the account qualification is one in a million, four-star! And it's said that he was specially sent from Beijing by God Slayer's headquarters, someone close to the boss of God Slayer Squad, not an ordinary identity. Be careful if you encounter him!"

Hungry for steamed buns, sleepy for pillows?

"Seems like joining Tianxuan has some benefits, after all."

Thinking this, Lu Ming replied, "Thanks for the heads-up."

"By the way, I'll add you to a group!" Qing Yan continued, "It's our Tianxuan's squad group in Starlight City. If you run into any trouble and need help, just call for people in the group!"

The next second, Lu Ming was invited by Qing Yan to join a chat group named [Tianxuan] (Jiang Province Group ①).

Wow!

Seeing over 17,000 members!

As soon as Lu Ming entered the group, the messages on the screen were like a Gatling gun!

[Tianxuan·Rogue] (Level 15 Assassin): "Yo, a newbie's here! Are you a bro or a sis?"

[Tianxuan·Rich Lady] (Level 18 Archer): "Judging by the profile picture, it's a little brother! What level are you, little brother? Show a photo, and I'll help you level up (let me see)."

[Tianxuan·Defy Heaven] (Level 11 Priest): "Rich Lady, please help me level up too! I'm also a newbie little brother (small dilemma)."

...

The atmosphere in Tianxuan seemed nice.

But it didn't stop Lu Ming from turning on message do-not-disturb.

He glanced back at Qing Yan's message.

God Slayer, Moon?

A confidant of the God Slayer Squad's boss?

If the person who orchestrated Ye Ling'er's betrayal of Lu Ming was the boss of the God Slayer Squad.

Then, this God Slayer, Moon must be...

"Let's start with you!"

"Let him taste the pain of losing a loved one first!"

"Follow the clues, let me see what kind of dirty rat hiding in the shadows this is, and how capable they really are!"

Improving himself and seeking revenge, both at once!

This situation, where the enemy is in the open and he is in the dark, is very advantageous for Lu Ming!

"The immediate priority is to reach level 20 and visit the black market."

The unique [Black Market] of the second layer in the Sky Abyss world.

It's said that as long as you have enough gold coins, players can buy rare items in the black market that can't be obtained through any other means!

And the entry requirement for the black market is for players to reach level 20 or above.

So, Lu Ming headed out of the south gate of Starlight City.

Unlike the usual task grinding and dungeon grinding for leveling up.

In Starlight City, there's a place more suitable for leveling up called the [Eternal Magic Tower].

And Lu Ming's destination this time was this Eternal Magic Tower!

Just as he left the city, Lu Ming received a WeChat message.

Opening it, he found a transfer message from Lin Youwei!

Amount: 300.

Lu Ming asked, "Didn't you say you were out of money?"

After a while, Lin Youwei replied, "Someone just asked me to help them take down a level 12 Elite Monster, and they'd give me 300 bucks for helping."

"Don't worry, Nether brother, I'll definitely pay back the five thousand bucks as soon as possible!"

Lu Ming casually closed WeChat, ignoring Lin Youwei.

At this moment, a few male players around levels 11-12 happened to walk by.

Some sleazy words inadvertently reached Lu Ming's ears.

"Old Chen said he hooked a young and pretty girl for just three hundred bucks, let's hurry over and check it out!"

"Girls these days are so cheap! And so easy to fool, tsk tsk."

"I just love these innocent young girls! Hahaha!"
