Chapter 1474: Mary Sue

“You… how did you know?”

When she heard Fearless’ words, Meng Xi looked astonished.

Wang Yu added, “That’s right. How did you know?”

“Hmph!” Fearless said, “Rebellions come with conditions. Other than Sanguine Alliance, the only one in Twilight City who meets the conditions is Void Blade.”

“Then, why isn’t it the Sanguine Alliance?” Vainglory asked.

“Impossible!” God of Death’s Left Hand blurted, “Sanguine Warflag isn’t dumb. He already has Saga City; why would he want Twilight City?”

“F*ck…”

God of Death’s Left Hand outburst suddenly brought everyone’s attention to the Sanguine Alliance.

Indeed, Twilight City wasn’t a wealthy capital. In terms of its geography, it was smaller compared to Saga City’s seaside capital. The Sanguine Alliance didn’t have a reason to offend Quan Zhen Sect over such a capital.

After all, nobody understood Saga City better than the Sanguine Alliance. Offending Quan Zhen Sect was like stepping on their own foot.

That was why Void Blade was the only one who could have issued the order to assassinate the City Lord.

“Tsk! You’re just guessing. What if there are other guilds that meet the criteria?” Vainglory frowned.

“Haha!”

Everyone shot a look at Meng Xi as their gazes landed on Vainglory. They acted like he was a complete fool.

Meng Xi suddenly got to her senses. She was tricked by Fearless; he was a cunning fellow.

“So what if you know? I won’t testify for you.” Meng Xi shot a scathing glare at Fearless.

Meng Xi had lots of pride. She would never admit to forming a team with Void Blade. She would only do that if there was concrete evidence against it. Otherwise, there was no way Quan Zhen Sect could do anything to Void Blade.

“Hehe!” Fearless laughed. “Our Quan Zhen Sect never works based off evidence!”

“Quiet!” Meng Xi saw Fearless’ brazenness. She changed the topic at once. “Bring Frost Blade to me at once!”

“No problem!” Fearless snapped his fingers and pulled Ming Du by his side. “Give Frost a call. Tell him there’s a million-dollar deal here and tell him to hurry up.”

“Will… will he come?” Ming Du stuttered.

“Of course!” Fearless continued, “It’s a million gold. In RMB, it’ll be ten million! I’m not scamming him either. Tell him that if he doesn’t come, we’ll split it with one less person.”

“Then, tell him not to come! I’ll take his share. Isn’t it just a girlfriend? I’ll bite the bullet and take one for the team!” Ming Du patted his chest as if he were taking a blow for them.

Everyone pulled out their weapons as they said coldly, “No way!”

“Hahaha! I’m kidding.” Ming Du went offline right after that.

Soon, Frost Blade received Ming Du’s call.

After hearing this news, Frost Blade scratched his head in confusion.

Frost Blade was part of Quan Zhen Sect’s first three generations. Fearless understood every inch of his personality. He was known for his money-grubbing personality.

How could he let a ten-million-dollar opportunity go?

Even if it was a special time, that last line would push Frost Blade to move.

Since he started out with Quan Zhen Sect, Fearless’ words struck Frost Blade’s heart. When he heard it, Frost Blade came online at once.

“Where’s the ten-million? Where is it?”

Soon, Frost Blade came to the inn. He muttered this as he walked to the table and pointed at fearless. “You won’t even let me sleep in this early in the morning; what ten-million deal is it?”

“Oh!” Fearless pointed behind Frost Blade and said, “Look behind you! The boss is there!”

“Boss?” Frost Blade turned around quickly. When he spotted Meng Xi, he froze up.

When she saw Frost Blade, Meng Xi was very emotional. She lifted her hand, awarding him with a tight slap.

“Pah!”

Frost Blade snapped to his senses as he said hurriedly, “Hahaha! The moon is bright this morning. Good night, everyone…”

With that, Frost Blade was about to go offline when Wang Yu tossed a beer bottle straight at Frost Blade’s head. His motion was intercepted at once.

“Old Bull! You’re insane!”

Frost Blade shot an angry glare at him.

Wang Yu smiled knowingly. “I’m not! Get the ten-million before you leave! Tell us what’s going on.”

In the past, he used to watch the drama from the sidelines. This time, Wang Yu caught him good. His face looked like a gossipy housewife that had come to listen to the drama.

Without waiting for Frost Blade to talk, Meng Xi slapped him again.

Frost Blade subconsciously lifted his hand to slap her hand aside. Soon after, he rubbed Meng Xi’s hand hurriedly, “Ah, why haven’t you changed this habit of yours? I played this game too much and reacted subconsciously; I didn’t mean to do that. Does it hurt?”

“…”

The beer table’s spectators were stunned when they say this. Rockabye and the others turned around to face the wall at once.

D*mn, they only came to watch the drama. Were they really flirting in broad daylight like this? One couldn’t feel any pain in-game. What the h*ll was he talking about?!

“Tsk!”

Meng Xi pulled her hand out of Frost Blade’s grasp as she raged, “Why did you leave without telling anyone?”

“The drama begins!”

Quan Zhen Sect members listened closely.

“This… that, sigh. You’ve gotten prettier,” Frost Blade replied vaguely.

“She’s asking you a question. Don’t change the topic.” Fearless slapped Frost Blade with his staff.

“What does it have to do with you?” Frost Blade asked angrily.

Fearless smirked and asked, “Lady Meng Xi; if I take him away, how much will you give me?”

“Brother Fearless! Let’s discuss this.”

Frost Blade’s heart jumped as he pulled Fearless back at once.

“That’s more like it!” Fearless rubbed his head, “If you don’t tell us, how can we help you? Don’t worry. With us around, nobody can do anything to you.”

“Sigh… what is there to talk about?” Frost Blade responded in exasperation, “It’s because I didn’t know better when I was still in university. After I graduated, I found out she was XXX Group’s CEO’s only daughter.”

“XXX Group? What, is that like Mary Sue? Brother, this ain’t a drama.” When they heard this, Quan Zhen Sect’s jaw fell to the ground.

Everyone knew about XXX Group. They knew that this girl didn’t have an ordinary identity. However, they didn’t expect this. It was no wonder she could take half the experts from Sacred Hall Squad about. That was Sacred Hall Squad’s backing.

“Which was why I left…” Frost Blade shrugged.

“D*mn, are you dumb?” Vainglory called out, “You don’t want a rich fiancée?”

“Quit playing around!” Frost Blade tossed Vainglory aside. “What does a kid like you know?”
