Rafam Continent, Russell Harbor
Hundreds of luxurious hovercrafts are docked in this large harbor, connecting many overseas islands.
The sky above the entire harbor is almost constantly swirling with airships ready to land or take off, making it extrely prosperous and spectacular.
Pillaging through the harbor are busy native residents and players.
A flock of seabirds occasionally lands around the harbor to forage, unfazed by the bustling crowds.
Everywhere exudes vitality and vibrancy.
Beside a fence, a charming elf girl stands there anxiously waiting for sothing.
Seeing the girl alone, so people occasionally co to chat, but the girl politely refuses them all.
Just as she had chased away a group, another team approached.
The leader, a Winged Race man, walked straight up to the girl and said:
"Are you alone, beautiful?"
"We’re about to head to Glanke Island to fight monsters, and we’re just short of an archer for output."
"Interested in joining us?"
"Oh, by the way!"
"I haven’t introduced myself yet."
"I’m the deputy clan leader of Family 301 of the New Divine Hall Guild, and my na is Divine Hall Beacon Fire."
After finishing the self-introduction, Divine Hall Beacon Fire looked at the girl’s reaction proudly.
To be honest.
When Divine Hall Beacon Fire first saw this girl, he was deeply moved by her sweet and lovable image.
It’s just that the girl’s na (Don’t call Potato) was sowhat... overly unique.
Divine Hall Beacon Fire assud that after hearing his identity.
She would be ecstatic and agree imdiately.
Then he could win her over with charm and strength.
Truth to be told, Divine Hall Beacon Fire had used this trick multiple tis before.
Although Divine Hall was initially targeted and dispersed due to conflicts with Feng Hua, even experiencing a particularly dark period.
But with the return of Divine Hall Madman, joined by Luoshen Liunian.
The New Divine Hall had already climbed back to the fifth among the top ten guilds in the Hua Country War Zone, a return to glory indeed.
Perhaps now the New Divine Hall’s influence isn’t as great as Shengshi Dynasty, Proud Sanctuary, and Famous Clan.
But to ordinary players in the Hua Country War Zone.
The New Divine Hall Guild is still a high-tier guild, and countless people try hard to get in without finding an entrance.
Even ordinary guild mbers feel this way, so for the deputy clan leader Divine Hall Beacon Fire, naturally having exceptional skills.
When Divine Hall Beacon Fire thought everything would go as usual according to the usual script.
The girl’s face indeed showed surprise, even shock.
But she didn’t agree as expected, rather she politely refused as always:
"Sorry."
"I’m waiting for my friend."
"Maybe you can find soone else, my skills might end up holding you back."
"Anyway, thank you for willing to take ."
Though the girl was sincere, this unexpected rejection still left Divine Hall Beacon Fire sowhat embarrassed.
The teammates behind him couldn’t help but tease:
"Beacon Fire Clan Leader, can you do it?"
"If not, how about I try?"
"Can’t believe our Beacon Fire boss had such a fail mont."
"Shall we find soone again? Hahaha~~"
Seeing everyone laughing, a flash of annoyance briefly crossed Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s face.
But he quickly masked it.
Raising his head again, he still wore a ’kind’ smile and said:
"You’re waiting for your friend?"
"No worries."
"You can bring your friend along too."
"Perhaps I can arrange for you guys to join my New Divine Hall Guild."
However, in Tao Xin’Er’s eyes, Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s actions seed... she was speechless.
Could it be her refusal wasn’t clear enough?
Just then, a familiar figure appeared, and Tao Xin’Er turned away from Divine Hall Beacon Fire to address the newcor:
"Xiao Ai Sister, over here."
Ai Wen noticed Tao Xin’Er and ca over with a smile:
"Potato, have you been waiting long?"
Originally smiling, Tao Xin’Er suddenly turned sour, pouted grumpily:
"Annoying! Don’t call Potato."
Just as she finished speaking, Divine Hall Beacon Fire suddenly ca from the side:
"Potato."
"Is this your friend?"
Ai Wen looked at Divine Hall Beacon Fire in surprise, then questioned Tao Xin’Er:
"Is he your friend?"
Tao Xin’Er glared at Divine Hall Beacon Fire with a difficult expression:
"Don’t! Call! ! Potato!"
"Ah!!!"
Seeing the girl suddenly change her expression, and connecting it to her na, Divine Hall Beacon Fire stood there dumbfounded.
So that’s the aning of her na?
If that’s the case, how should he address her now.
Don’t call Potato?
You’re not Potato?
Or... Potato isn’t you?
Clearly, Tao Xin’Er had no intention to continue dealing with Divine Hall Beacon Fire, but rather pulled Ai Wen’s hand to leave:
"Let’s hurry up and go."
"They’re waiting for us on Glanke Island."
Nearby, hearing this, Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s heart stirred:
"You’re also going to Glanke Island?"
He then blocked Tao Xin’Er’s path again and said:
"Well... beautiful, I’m sincerely wanting to make friends with you."
"Give a chance."
After speaking, a group suddenly appeared behind him, blocking most of the way.
Ai Wen frowned seeing this:
"What do you an by this?"
Divine Hall Beacon Fire pretended to glare fiercely at Ai Wen:
"It’s none of your business, stop with the nonsense."
Ai Wen froze.
But Tao Xin’Er wouldn’t take it upon hearing this.
She imdiately hooked her arm around Ai Wen’s, looking at Divine Hall Beacon Fire with a face full of disgust:
"I have my bestie and that’s enough, I don’t need any friends."
"Go find soone else."
However, Tao Xin’Er’s refusal didn’t dampen Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s enthusiasm. Instead, he maintained a friendly smile and said:
"You’re going to Glanke Island, right?"
"Coincidentally, we’re headed there too."
"Why don’t we go together, so we can look out for one another on the way?"
Seeing Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s ’a dead pig isn’t afraid of boiling water’ attitude, Tao Xin’Er felt helpless and said:
"Sorry, I don’t like traveling with strangers, thank you."
After saying this, she wanted to forcibly leave with Ai Wen.
Because there were people waiting for them at Glanke Island, they didn’t want to waste any ti here.
Moreover, this was a safe zone, so she wasn’t afraid of the other party taking action.
Yet, Tao Xin’Er clearly underestimated Divine Hall Beacon Fire’s determination to ’get’ her.
Divine Hall Beacon Fire once again blocked their way, saying with a cheeky smile:
"Every friendship starts with strangers."
"How do you know we won’t beco great friends?"
This made Ai Wen realize sothing was off, and she frowned:
"Is this how Divine Hall people chase after girls, just persistently bothering them?"
However, Ai Wen’s words stirred things up.
As soon as she spoke, the crowd behind Divine Hall Beacon Fire got offended.
They suddenly glared at Ai Wen and shouted:
"What did you say?"
"Do you know what you’re talking about, you vile woman?"
"Apologize to us!"
Facing the tall and strong mbers of the New Divine Hall, Ai Wen remained defiant:
"Did I say anything wrong?"
"Isn’t pursuing my sister relentlessly exactly what you’re doing?"
This made the New Divine Hall players livid:
"Damn it, don’t think just because you’re a woman we won’t dare to touch you."
"Try and say that again!"
"Believe , we’ll make sure you can’t even leave Russell Harbor."
Seeing both sides ready to clash, even Tao Xin’Er beca worried and held onto Ai Wen, saying:
"Maybe just let it go?"
"Don’t argue with them."
But hearing this, a few players from the Divine Hall Guild aggressively persisted:
"Let it go?"
"After insulting the New Divine Hall Guild, you just want to let it go?"
The group imdiately surrounded the two.
Divine Hall Beacon Fire had the intention to intimidate them, so he didn’t intervene and instead stepped back to watch the drama unfold.
But suddenly.
Divine Hall Beacon Fire felt soone place a hand on his shoulder. Before he could figure out the situation, a teasing voice whispered in his ear:
"Brother!"
"Does your Madman boss know you’re doing this?"
"Want to bet I’ll tell your Madman boss about this?"
Divine Hall Beacon Fire slowly turned his head with a stiff expression to look at the person beside him.
Even a glance at the side profile was enough for Divine Hall Beacon Fire to recognize the person, and he was scared out of his wits:
"Damn."
"Brother Tian Ci, why are you here?"
Tian Ci looked at Divine Hall Beacon Fire, whose face was full of discomfort, and glanced toward Ai Wen’s direction:
"You guys have so nerve!"
"You’re even daring to bully my friends, huh?"
Divine Hall Beacon Fire, if he didn’t understand what was going on by now, then he’d have wasted the past decades.
He quickly responded and shouted at his subordinates:
"What are you idiots doing!"
The few were bewildered and turned back to look at Divine Hall Beacon Fire.
That backward glance was crucial.
The few were instantly shocked, their eyes wide, expressing disbelief:
"Isn’t that Big Tian Ci?"
Divine Hall Beacon Fire said angrily:
"What the heck, stop talking nonsense and get back here."
But Tian Ci interjected:
"First apologize to my two frightened friends."
At this mont, Divine Hall Beacon Fire lost the swagger from before and yelled at his subordinates:
"Didn’t you hear? Do it now!"
Who is Tian Ci?
He’s the number one Divine Thief in the Hua Country War Zone (tied with Red Eyes).
Apart from his Divine Thief status, he’s also the closest comrade of the great Feng Hua.
If you ask who their Divine Hall Madman boss fears the most.
It’s definitely Feng Hua.
In their New Divine Hall, there’s a saying:
"Even if you’re deeply wronged, you have to swallow it. Anyone who dares provoke Feng Hua, even slightly displeasing him, will be imdiately expelled from the guild and hunted by all mbers, with no chance of reconciliation."
Offending soone like Tian Ci is almost no different from offending Feng Hua.
This is precisely why.
Upon seeing Tian Ci, Divine Hall Beacon Fire and the other mbers reacted so strongly.
Then, under Tao Xin’Er’s shocked gaze and Ai Wen’s helpless expression.
The New Divine Hall players, who monts ago were so arrogant, instantly turned docile like little kittens, repeatedly apologizing to the two.
Tao Xin’Er stared wide-eyed at the idol she had only seen before on ga forums or live streams, her mind going blank.
She then turned to Ai Wen, full of excitent:
"Oh my God!"
"Sister Xia Ai, look, that’s my idol."
