The resurrection centre was a quiet region of the city. Only a few players are in sight. Sometimes, the resurrection formation would flash and a player or a Team would step out. They were those who died in battle. Not far away, there were stalls and shops where resurrected players can replace their lost equipments.
The place still maintained its tranquillity when the formation shone brightly with Green light and a large number of players spawned at the resurrection centre with confused expressions on their faces. They were those who Xuan Yuan had crushed to death but they were couldn't fathom how they died or who killed them.
"What happened just now? Why are we here?" Some of the players asked.
"Did we teleport?" One of the players muttered. "Or were we resurrected after dying?"
They quickly checked their EXP bars and to their horror, 10% was missing.
"Who killed us?" They wondered.
"I don't know, but just when I was about to release my spell, I felt something crush me to the ground!" An Elementialist said.
"Shit!! He used a Magic scroll!" The players said.
"Let's find him again!" A player shouted. "Since he used a Scroll, then I wonder how he'll fight us now"
"Yes! Let's go" They said as the various Team leaders led their members to the Adventurer Tracking centre to re-track him...
Meanwhile, Shadow Empress and the others already returned to the place where they fought Xuan Yuan previously and they met him ship he was leaving.
"Let's fight again" Snow Titan said as she stepped forward while the others scanned the whole place to locate Xuan Yuan's allies. None wanted to due an unknown death again.
"I'm a busy man. I don't have your time!" replied Xuan Yuan.
"It's not up to you to decide!" Snow Titan said as she unsheathe her Epic weapon and charged at Xuan Yuan. The others also took their respective weapons and began attacking Xuan Yuan.
But at the next moment, Xuan Yuan waved his hands and Mana surged like ocean waves that sent the Ultimate death players before him flying and colliding with trees behind them losing some HP.
"Holy nonsense!! Is he a Superman?" Dark Angel muttered.
"Or an herbalist?" Divine Shieldbearer added.
"Bur he didn't chant incantations!" Dancing Flame said.
"Maybe he's wearing a ring" Dark Angel said...
"Don't force my hand!" Xuan Yuan said firmly to the players and he condensed a Teleportation array and disappeared before they could react.
"What the Fuck just happened? He sent us flying without touching us!" Astral Sword muttered. "Is he a Boss or a Player?"
"I don't think anyone is helping him either!" Pure Spring added.
"Believe me Goddess Spring, I'm not the one that casted that curse on you!" Dark Angel pleaded.
"I know! I have a feeling he did that!" Said Pure Spring.
"Could he be hacking?"
"Maybe he used a Magic scroll!" Water Priestess added.
"But his skills are not bad either. He's worthy of respect!" Shadow Empress said. "What do we do now? Fight or retreat?" She continued.
"Let's retreat! I'm traumatized already" Dark Angel suggested lazily.
"I agree!" Dancing Flame also added.
"No!! We fight!!" Snow Titan suddenly said.
"Snow Titan, we can't beat this guy. Let's retreat instead and return when we get stronger!" Shadow Empress advised.
"You guys can leave if you want to. I stay and fight!" She said firmly and began walking towards the city.
"So annoying!" Shadow Empress grumbled before following her...
Xuan Yuan arrived at the main street, and stopped in front of the Jade Spear Manor where the City Ruler lived.As usual, some players were still there waiting patiently to enter the city. Whoever saw them will surely think they are the lazy type that do not want to level up but those players were either Guild players or Adventurer Team members who had been tasked to enter the City Ruler mansion at all cost to gather information about it. When the time is right, they'd be power leveled by their teammates.
Once Xuan Yuan arrived, some of the players recognized him while new ones do not but they soon do as they were given the latest news about him.
"Brother Sword Mage" Some players approached him and greeted and Xuan Yuan nodded in response.
"We've been here waiting for you for a while" One of the players began.
"Is there a problem?" Xuan Yuan asked.
"Not at all" The Player said. "We just wanted to discuss some things with you"
"Go on"
"As you can see, you're now being targeted by Heaven Will in Jade Spear City. A bounty has even been placed on your head. Even if you have Godlike strength, with such nuisances, you'll have difficulty developing in the city" The Player who was a level 49 Shield warrior explained patiently. "Hence we want to help you counter Heaven Will's oppressions and even aid you in your future developments if you join our Sky Dragon Guild. If you join, you'll be given the position of a Vice commander and you'll even get a higher position as time go on" The player offered.
"Your Sky Dragon Guild is so stingy to such a powerful expert. Brother Sword Mage, so long as you join our Fiery Crows Guild, you'll be given the position Commander of our Main Legion" Another level 49 Summoner said.
"Look at the pot calling the kettle black. Stingy old fools. Brother Sword Mage! Our Mysterious Domain Guild promises you an Epic rank item along with a Honorary Elder position in our Guild!" Another Level 49 Assassin promised.
"White Camel Guild promise you a Grand Elder position!"
"Firmament Guild promises a Bloodline Change Token and a Vice Guild Leader position!"
In an instant, an auction began in front of the City Ruler mansion as the various large Guild offered Xuan Yuan ridiculous benefits if he joined their Guilds. Xuan Yuan even nearly agreed to their proposals...
