"Qinqin, you..."
White Tiger, who had been knocked to the ground and held by two Dragon Soul warriors, lifted his head and stared incredulously at Qinqin standing before him.
Qinqin, shedding her previous pitiful demeanor, transformed in an instant into a regal princess.
Looking down at White Tiger, her eyes were filled with coldness and disdain.
"Zhang Hu, I'm telling you, I haven't liked you for a long time!"
"I waited for you in Cloud State for two years, and when I was sick or bullied, where were you? I even had to take care of that old woman for you! I'm tired of it, I've had enough!"
"I'm so young and beautiful, with a great figure, while you're ugly, poor, and pathetic. What makes you think you deserve me? Just because you're a national standard Assassin? What can a national standard do? Can it give me the life I want?"
White Tiger's eyes widened; he couldn't believe these words were coming from Qinqin's mouth.
"I admit, I haven't cared for you enough over the years, and it's thanks to you taking care of my grandma in Cloud State that I could focus on developing in Shanghai,"
"But in Shanghai, I've been constantly working hard to earn money, to give you a better life in the future!"
Qinqin snorted coldly, "But no matter how hard you try, what's the use? Some things can't be achieved just by effort in this lifetime!"
With that, Qinqin walked over to the warrior holding a Guan Yu blade, affectionately linking her arm with his.
She coquettishly asked him, "How was my performance just now?"
The man smiled faintly, "Beautiful."
"So, can I be your girlfriend now?"
"You can."
White Tiger's face was filled with disbelief and despair, "So, this was all a setup..."
Just then, the man walked over.
He stepped on White Tiger's face, leaned down, and stared at him, speaking in a deep voice, "Do you know who I am?"
As he spoke, he opened his status panel, revealing the hidden ID above his head—
[Dragon Soul Guan Yu] (Lv50 Sixth-turn Warrior · Great Xia National Server Warrior Leaderboard Rank 39)!
Rank 39 on the National Server Warrior Leaderboard!!!
Seeing this golden national standard, a look of shock flashed in White Tiger's eyes.
No wonder the opponent's earlier strike almost instantly killed him!
Level 50, Rank 39 on the national server, was far superior to his Rank 98!
Although both were on the national server, they were on completely different levels!
At this moment, Dragon Soul Guan Yu stared at White Tiger, his piercing gaze filled with anger, "Do you know who the Dragon Soul Tian Ni you killed in the Barbarian Tribe the other day was?"
"A person so easily betrayed by the woman he loved most, living such a failed life, where did you find the courage to kill my brother Guan Yu?"
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
"Today, this will be your burial ground!"
With that, Dragon Soul Guan Yu raised his Guan Yu blade.
Just as he was about to strike down and decapitate White Tiger.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Suddenly, an endless rain of fire descended from the sky, engulfing a large area of the Despair Fortress.
The Dragon Soul players within the area were severely wounded by the overwhelming damage!
Under the long-range firepower suppression of the mage Rosefinch.
The warrior Orient Loong God, together with the knight Basalt, charged into the Despair Fortress, cutting down the Dragon Soul players blocking their path with an unstoppable force!
"Ah Hu, don't worry! We're here!"
Seeing his three good brothers arrive, White Tiger didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"I told you not to come, I can handle this..."
"Handle my ass!" Basalt knocked down a low-health Dragon Soul warrior player with his shield and said to White Tiger, "You're the one being handled!"
Swish!
Orient Loong God pointed his Qinggang Sword at the ground, "We agreed, the four of us brothers, live and die together!"
"Live and die together, huh!" Dragon Soul Guan Yu laughed coldly, his eyes chilling, "Since you're all here, let's send you all to the afterlife together!"
As Dragon Soul Guan Yu's words fell.
Clang!
The rear gate of the Despair Fortress suddenly closed.
At the same time, countless Dragon Soul team players charged out from within the fortress!
Everyone was uniformly Level 50 Sixth-turn, fully equipped with Level 50 Bronze Equipment!
Seeing this, Rosefinch frowned, "It seems they've prepared thoroughly this time, just waiting for us to come!"
Whoosh!
With the Qinggang Sword in hand, Orient Loong God's eyes burned with determination, "Then let's fight them till the sky turns dark!"
Basalt planted his heavy shield on the ground, shouting, "If you don't let me have a few kills this time, I'll fight you all!"
"Kill them."
With Dragon Soul Guan Yu's order.
Hundreds of Dragon Soul team Sixth-turn players charged at Orient Loong God and his group with overwhelming force...
Boom!
The clear sky suddenly rumbled with thunder, and rain began to pour.
Clatter!
The sky was instantly covered with dark clouds.
Rain poured down in torrents.
A slender figure ran through the storm.
Even when she fell, she quickly got up and continued forward.
Qin Churan's heart was in turmoil.
She seemed to have foreseen something.
"Ah Long, Ah Hu, Xiao Wu, Lao Zhu, you must be safe!"
The intense unease quickened Qin Churan's pace.
The rain poured down.
When Qin Churan arrived at the outskirts of the Despair Fortress, she saw the massive city shrouded in darkness, with flames soaring into the sky!
The sounds of fierce battle cries and screams echoed through the air.
But as Qin Churan rushed forward and pushed open the tightly closed city gate with all her might, everything fell silent.
The vast city was filled with corpses, rivers of blood flowing.
Thud!
As a sharp blade pierced through a body.
The last sliver of health above Basalt's head was drained, and he fell heavily to the ground, collapsing into a pool of blood right before Qin Churan's eyes.
At the same time, Rosefinch was also pierced by countless arrows, meeting the same fate.
"Xiao Wu!"
"Lao Zhu!"
Watching the scene unfold before her, Qin Churan let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Orient Loong God cut down a Dragon Soul player with his sword, looked towards Qin Churan, and shouted, "Run! Ranran! Run!"
"Run!"
The next second, with his health and mana nearly depleted, Orient Loong God, already at the end of his strength, was decapitated by Dragon Soul Guan Yu, his body falling to the ground.
Dragon Soul Guan Yu stepped over Orient Loong God's corpse, his gaze icy, dragging his Guan Yu blade as he approached Qin Churan step by step.
The only one left, White Tiger, cried out in agony, "I'm sorry, brothers, I got you killed..."
"I'm sorry... let's be brothers in the next life!"
With that, White Tiger released dozens of shadow clones, charging at Dragon Soul Guan Yu to buy Qin Churan time.
Slash!
Dragon Soul Guan Yu unleashed a sweeping strike, shattering all the clones in an instant.
With a single thrust, he pierced the heart of the real White Tiger, who had leaped up to attack.
"Ranran... run..."
With his heart pierced by the sharp blade, it stopped beating.
White Tiger's life ended at that moment.
Qin Churan watched as these four people, who were not related by blood but were closer than family, who had protected, tolerated, and cared for her since childhood, died before her eyes, unable to hold back her heart-wrenching cries.
And after killing White Tiger, eliminating the last obstacle.
Dragon Soul Guan Yu had no intention of stopping.
Dragging his long blade, he continued to approach Qin Churan.
Qin Churan turned her grief and hatred into strength.
As she looked up at Dragon Soul Guan Yu, her cold eyes filled with endless killing intent.
Grabbing a dagger, she charged straight at Dragon Soul Guan Yu!
Clang!
Just as Qin Churan entered the attack range.
Dragon Soul Guan Yu planted his long blade on the ground, unleashing a shockwave of blade light around him.
Before Qin Churan could get close, she was blown away by the blade light.
She crashed to the ground, her full health bar instantly reduced to a sliver.
A Level 33 ordinary Assassin.
A Level 50 National Server Rank 39 Warrior.
The two were on completely different levels, their strength worlds apart.
Blood trickled from the corner of Qin Churan's mouth.
But she did not yield; instead, her eyes burned with even more intense killing intent.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
Facing her, Dragon Soul Guan Yu sneered, "Overestimating yourself."
Just as Qin Churan was about to go all out against Dragon Soul Guan Yu.
Buzz!
Several blood-red marks suddenly appeared on Dragon Soul Guan Yu's chest.
As Dragon Soul Guan Yu looked down at the marks on his chest, unsure of their origin.
Four Undead Warriors suddenly charged from both sides, flashing in front of Dragon Soul Guan Yu in an instant.
Slash, slash, slash, slash!
Four Soul Shatters simultaneously erupted on Dragon Soul Guan Yu.
Seeing that these fierce Undead Warriors only inflicted a few insignificant 1000-point damages on him, a look of disdain flashed in Dragon Soul Guan Yu's eyes.
"Courting death."
Slash!
With a swift move of Dragon Soul Guan Yu's long blade, he instantly killed all four Undead Warriors!
However, after dealing with these Undead Warriors, when he looked ahead, Dragon Soul Guan Yu realized that the female Assassin Qin Churan had disappeared without a trace...
Dragon Soul Guan Yu squinted his eyes.
"Trying to escape?"
"Not so easy!"
