"Are we just going to let this go?" Nan Lang was somewhat unwilling. After all, he had been killed once.
"And what do you want to do?" You Lan smiled faintly and pointed towards the silver dense forest where Shi Feng had disappeared. "If you're unwilling, you can chase after him. But you've already witnessed the terrifying combat power of Black Flame. With that AoE silence skill, it's far too easy for him to kill people. As soon as that skill's cooldown is up, he might just turn around and come back. At that point, anyone who followed him would be the next target."
Nan Lang listened, recalling the scene just before Shi Feng left where he slashed and killed the high-level expert Ming Cha, and a cold sweat broke out on him. Even now, he felt a lingering fear.
"But what about Young Master Feng's side?" Nan Lang was somewhat scared, but Feng Xuanyang was also not someone to be trifled with.
"I will speak with Young Master Feng. Being able to witness the strength of Zero Wing's president, Black Flame, today is already a great gain. The rest of the matter can be left to President Wei Wo." You Lan smiled mysteriously, and after speaking, she turned and left.
Nan Lang sighed and followed You Lan away.
Wei Wo Du Kuang and Ming Cha were both dead, what else could Nan Lang do? Moreover, his main task today was to bring You Lan to take a look at Dark Star Guild and observe its situation. Ambushing Zero Wing had just been an afterthought.
By a lake in the Silver Leaf Forest, Huo Wu and the others had been waiting for a long time, but Shi Feng still hadn't shown up, and they were growing anxious.
"Sister Huo Wu, the president hasn't returned yet. Why don't I go take a look?" Feiying, one of the Five Demons and an Assassin, suggested.
In his past life, Feiying was very solitary, but his strength still ranked near the top. Although he wasn't outstanding at the beginning, he wasn't bad either, somewhere in the middle. But after being pulled into the Zero Wing Workshop by Shi Feng, Shi Feng immediately had Feiying join the main raid team. This caused discontent among many in the guild, but as time passed, everyone felt that the president was the president, someone they couldn't compare to.
In the entire main raid team, Huo Wu was Zero Wing's undisputed number one Assassin. The second-ranked Assassin had never been definitively set, but after Feiying arrived, his technique improved rapidly through constant battles and sparring. He quickly earned everyone's recognition and was vaguely considered the strongest Assassin after Huo Wu.
"Forget it. Since the president stayed behind, he naturally has absolute confidence. Let's not go and cause trouble instead," Huo Wu said, though she was very worried inside, she shook her head, rejecting Feiying's suggestion.
Just then, a black shadow darted out of the woods, landing silently by the lakeside.
By the time everyone was startled, the black shadow had already arrived before them, as if appearing out of thin air.
Huo Wu and Ziyan Liuyun noticed it first.
Huo Wu instinctively drew the daggers at her waist, as if facing a formidable enemy.
The others also noticed shortly after, drawing their weapons and getting ready.
Although they hadn't yet seen the black shadow's appearance clearly, the pressure it exuded was no less than that of a Lord-tier boss. Present, besides the Guardian Knight and Shield Warrior, probably no one could withstand more than a few attacks.
"President!" Huo Wu quickly made out Shi Feng's features. Her heart was shocked.
In the past, while fleeing for her life, she hadn't noticed the change in Shi Feng. But now, facing him directly, she suddenly realized his strength had increased enormously. She barely recognized him, especially that astonishing aura, sharp as needlepoints.
"It seems you've all improved quite a bit recently, to be able to notice me so quickly," Shi Feng said, glancing at everyone with a satisfied smile.
Combat in Divine Realm wasn't like other virtual games. Strength improvement wasn't limited to skill and equipment; it also involved beast-like intuition. After all, the cost of death wasn't low, and such intuition was essential.
If players didn't die in the wild, reaching level 200 wouldn't take two years. The reason Shi Feng had played for ten years and was still only level 200 was entirely because of Divine Realm's myriad battles; he had died countless times.
In Divine Realm, danger was ever-present. Guild wars were merely a small part of its perils.
Therefore, cultivating beast-like intuition was absolutely necessary to avoid unnecessary deaths, which was also the key to leveling up.
