That was Xiao Ping who was now stood before him with the same disdainful expression he always wore.
"Trash Yuan! so you're still alive after all these years!" Xiao Ping exclaimed sarcastically.
"You know him?" The leader asked.
"Yeah! I know him very well. He's still as cowardly as always" Xiao Ping said.
"Oh!" Xuan Yuan raised an eyebrow and said.
"You're really a Trash, Xuan Yuan. Now you even hide behind ladies now. Can you even take charge for once"
"Trash?" Xuan Yuan's voice turned frosty immediately.
The girls behind him shivered uncontrollably.
They had been with Xuan Yuan for about five years but this is the first time he ever reacted so intensely to an insult! Previously, he'd just keep quiet and swallow all the endless ridicule. That'd been his style since young.
But today, Xuan Yuan was not the Previous Xuan Yuan. Seeing him react so drastically, they knew things are not going well.
"This is not good!" Bai Qingyuan said worriedly.
"Yeah! Trashy Xuan Yuan" Xiao Ping laughed mockingly. "What can you do to me?..."
Before Xiao Ping could finish his sentence, Xuan Yuan suddenly moved at a speed everyone present couldn't keep up with and appeared in front of Xiao Ping with a sword pointed on his throat.
"Fuck!" Xiao Ping cried out as he saw Xuan Yuan's frosty eyes. But he soon calmed down as he remembered that his teammates were behind him. "Do you dare to kill me?"
Xuan Yuan raged as he ruthlessly raised his sword and stabbed his sword into Xiao Ping's heart whose HP dropped until it reached Zero!
Xiao Ping's face contorted in horror as he watched Xuan Yuan and his vision blurred away.
He was scared not because of how Xuan Yuan killed him but rather how Xuan Yuan killed him with one strike. Although he was a Ranger, it still doesn't make sense as to how a Swordman like Xuan Yuan could insta-kill him. If it's a Swordman with all his attribute points allocated to strength, that's still acceptable, but Xuan Yuan moved with insane speed, so he probably had his attribute points allocated to speed. How then did he possess such overpowered strength!
He had no time to think as he faded into white light before he could utter anything.
His fellow Guild members were astonished! They had all thought that Xuan Yuan wouldn't dare to kill Xiao Ping with so many of them present.
They all had a furious look on their faces as they eyed Xuan Yuan dangerously.
"Take him down, we kill him back to level 0!!" The leader who was a Berserker unsheathed his Great Sword and charged at Xuan Yuan.
They needed to kill Xuan Yuan at all cost, otherwise if the word were to spread that their Teammate got killed by someone unknown and he got away, they'll become laughing stocks all over the city.
The other players took the weapons and charged at Xuan Yuan. Melee players confronted him while spells, curses and arrows flew towards him from afar.
"Die!" The Melee players shouted as they swung their weapons at Xuan Yuan. Facing attacks from over 10 Tier 1 players, even a Tier 2 Master would be overwhelmed. They were all waiting to see Xuan Yuan fall to their skills.
BOOM!! BOOM!!!
They all smiled as the dusts cleared. The Healer among them walked forward to resurrect Xuan Yuan so they could blast him to death again. That was how players are killed to level 0. Healers possess the Resurrection skill so they could resurrect their dead teammates. But players now use the skill for despicable purposes, killing players and resurrecting them until they get reduced to level 0. Players lose 25% upon death so one could imagine how long a Level 35+ player will undergo the cycle of death and resurrection before getting reduced to Level 0!
The Healer was just a few metres away, when she suddenly saw a figure appear amidst the dusts with a powerful defensive Blade shielding him.
'Defensive Blade became so powerful now!' Xuan Yuan muttered.
The Healer ran back frantically like someone who just saw a ghost as she gazed at the figure in astonishment.
When the opposing players saw Xuan Yuan emerge unscathed from the bombardment from their skills, they all took a step back unconsciously with their jaws on the ground.
"What the Fuck!!"
"Is that a Shield warrior?"
"He completely blocked over 10 Tier 1 skills with Defensive Blade, a Tier 0 skill!! who's that expert?"
Meanwhile, at the resurrection point, Xiao Ping was in tears as he stared at the bunch of useless equipments on his body. Previously, when Xuan Yuan attacked him, he had used Mana to forcefully disrupt the Magic arrays in Xiao Ping's equipments rendering them useless without touching them at all!
In the game, Players are not afraid of dying. What's scary is dropping their weapon or equipment upon death. These items were Players lifelines, destroying these items is the same as taking away 70% of their combat power. At this stage of the game, Equipments are now getting increasingly difficult to acquire. For a player to lose one of their equipment is enough to make them shed endless tears. Destroying all their weapons and equipment is enough to make a Player commit suicide.
Xiao Ping was bulging with fury as he thought of Xuan Yuan, he wished he could just castrate Xuan Yuan before making Xuan Yuan eat his d*ck.
"Captain, you have to take revenge for me! That bastard destroyed all my equipments" Xiao Ping rained his tears in the Team chat.
The reply he got was, "Scram!!"
