Qin Churan was stunned.

She thought Lu Ming would ask for money or some other kind of benefit.

But she never expected Lu Ming to propose such a condition!

However, Qin Churan didn't hesitate for even a moment.

She immediately responded to Lu Ming, "Alright, I agree!"

"Don't act rashly for now, wait for my news."

Leaving Qin Churan with these words, Lu Ming led the Death Lords away from her side.

Watching Lu Ming's departing figure, Qin Churan's eyes were filled with confusion.

She was a smart girl.

Just now, she clearly saw from Lu Ming's eyes that he had no romantic feelings for her.

She didn't know what Lu Ming's purpose was in wanting her to be his girlfriend.

But...

"As long as I can avenge A-Long and Xiao Wu, as long as I can personally take down Dragon Soul Guan Yu,"

"I am willing to do anything!"

Because just before Lu Ming proposed to help her with revenge, she had even considered agreeing to her brother's plan to marry Wang Long, the foolish son of the Wang family, after using the Godslayer Squad to exact her revenge!

Besides, she already had a good impression of this Nether.

Being Lu Ming's girlfriend was certainly better than marrying that fool Wang Long!

On the other side.

Lu Ming's request to Qin Churan was not because he was genuinely interested in her.

Even though Qin Churan did have a certain charm~

The main reason was that Lu Ming had already seen the WeChat conversation between Qin Churan and her brother through the shared vision of a nearby Death Lord!

"So, your name is Qin Feng!"

Not only did he learn the real name of the person behind the scenes.

In addition, Lu Ming also knew that Qin Churan was eager for revenge but was helpless.

So, this was a perfect opportunity for him to get close to Qin Churan!

Lu Ming didn't want to wait any longer.

He wanted to take the initiative!

He wanted to use Qin Churan's hand to take revenge on Qin Feng and Ye Ling'er!

Moreover, even if it wasn't for helping Qin Churan, Lu Ming himself had to kill Dragon Soul Guan Yu!

This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

"This person has already become a threat to me."

"Keeping him alive will definitely lead to endless troubles!"

"I must eliminate him as soon as possible!"

However, Lu Ming also realized a hidden danger.

"With my current strength, although I can handle players up to level 50 in the second layer, it's still unstable."

"Just like earlier, although I killed dozens of Dragon Soul members, I also lost quite a few Death Lords, and Dragon Soul Guan Yu already knows my current strength."

"Today, we won because they were few in number. Next time, if Dragon Soul Guan Yu brings more level 50 Dragon Soul players to retaliate, I will definitely struggle to deal with them!"

Lu Ming murmured, "To deal with Dragon Soul Guan Yu and to firmly establish myself in the second layer without fearing any threats, I must increase the strength of the Death Lords to a level where they can easily handle any level 50 player!"

In the end, it boils down to three words:

Keep leveling up!

Although, as long as Lu Ming continues to level up to 30 and raises his three major talents to Lv4, even a hundred Dragon Soul Guan Yus would be nothing more than cannon fodder in front of him.

But Dragon Soul Guan Yu will definitely not let Lu Ming live until then!

Because he also knows that the higher Lu Ming's level, the harder he will be to deal with, and he will stop at nothing to eliminate Lu Ming while his level is still low.

So, Lu Ming can't wait until level 30.

"It seems I need to quickly bring Lin Youwei to level 20, make a trip to the black market, and see if there are any items that can quickly boost my strength in the short term."

Just as Lu Ming was thinking this.

Ding ding!

Lin Youwei suddenly sent a WeChat message.

"Nether brother, where did you go?"

"Are you okay?"

When he left, Lu Ming didn't tell Lin Youwei what he was going to do, only asking her to wait for him in Starlight City.

Who would have thought that this wait would last almost the entire morning!

And Lin Youwei, instead of complaining, was constantly concerned about Lu Ming.

To prevent Lin Youwei from being targeted by Dragon Soul members, Lu Ming told her, "Wait for me in the city, I'm heading back now."

After waiting all morning, Lin Youwei finally received a message from Lu Ming and immediately replied, "Nether brother, should I log off first to make lunch? You can come back later, and we can eat before leveling up."

Lu Ming checked the time; it was almost noon.

So he said, "Alright."

Then, the following conversation ensued.

Lin Youwei: "What do you want for lunch?"

Lu Ming: "Anything."

Lin Youwei: "We still have some leftovers from last night. How about I make fried rice with eggs?"

Lu Ming: "Too dry."

Lin Youwei: "How about noodles then?"

Lu Ming: "Too plain."

Lin Youwei: "Then what do you want to eat, Nether brother?"

Lu Ming: "Anything."

Lin Youwei: "..."

Seeing Lin Youwei fall silent, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile.

This silly girl was quite amusing to tease!

Closing the chat, Lu Ming headed towards Starlight City.

Little did he know, at that very moment, a pair of eyes was watching him intently from an inconspicuous patch of forest nearby...

As they say, the most dangerous place is the safest.

It turned out that after Dragon Soul Guan Yu broke through the encirclement, he hadn't gone far but was lurking nearby!

He originally wanted to see if he could find an opportunity to bypass the Undead Legion and directly ambush and kill Lu Ming.

But now, seeing that Lu Ming was constantly protected by a group of Death Lords, he abandoned that idea.

Watching Lu Ming, who had killed dozens of his brothers, gradually walk away.

The hatred in Dragon Soul Guan Yu's heart was building up to the point of explosion.

His eyes were filled with endless rage, and his back teeth were almost ground to dust.

Just then, he received a message from a WeChat friend with the note name [Boss Qin].

"How's the task going?"

Dragon Soul Guan Yu tried to calm his anger and replied, "The four national standards around Qin Churan have been eliminated."

He sent four photos along with the message.

Seeing these four photos documenting the deaths of Qinglong, Xuanwu, White Tiger, and Vermilion Bird, the other party was clearly satisfied: "Very good."

At this point, Dragon Soul Guan Yu continued angrily, "But out of nowhere, a Trickster appeared, not only rescuing Qin Churan but also killing dozens of my brothers who fought alongside me!"

Boss Qin was silent for a moment, then said, "List all the people who sacrificed on your side, and I'll compensate you."

"Also, didn't I tell you not to touch Qin Churan? Just deal with the people around her. You can give her a lesson, but you mustn't kill her!"

"This task will continue to be followed up by you. As for that Trickster you mentioned, no matter who he is, I want to see his corpse within three days. And anyone who has dealings with Qin Churan, kill them all, leave no one alive."

Despite being an elite member of the sixth-ranked Dragon Soul team and a gold medal warrior ranked 39th in the national server.

Having just lost dozens of good brothers and now being ordered and reprimanded like this, Dragon Soul Guan Yu was furious and was about to retort with "I'm done, find someone else if you want."

Before he could send the message, he received a text notification.

[Your account ending in 3195 has received a transfer of 32,000,000 yuan, balance 45,327,652.12 yuan... Great Xia Bank]

At the same time, Boss Qin sent a message: "This is the bounty balance for those four national standards. Give me the list of sacrificed personnel, and I'll compensate 2 million per person, or you can name a price."

Dragon Soul Guan Yu wanted to get angry.

But this text notification made it impossible for him to be angry!

Because although this guy's attitude was lacking, he was really generous with the money!

So, Dragon Soul Guan Yu deleted the unsent message and edited a new one to send: "No problem, within two days, I will take that Trickster's head!"

Ending the conversation, Dragon Soul Guan Yu couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.

"Even a tiger doesn't eat its cubs, yet this guy can lay hands on his own sister. Truly a terrifying person."

"I was considering switching to your Godslayer Squad because of the much better pay, but now it seems working under someone like you might mean having money but not a life to spend it."

"Once this job is done, I'm leaving Dragon Soul too! With this money, I can live comfortably for the rest of my life!"
