Chapter 423: I’m not negotiating with you. I’m warning you.

When he heard this, Li Xiao Bing laughed indifferently, “No no no, President Fearless, you don’t understand your current predicament. Just because you have the Sanguine Alliance as your backer, you think you can run amok as you wish? The market is a place for gaming studios. If Sanguine Alliance wishes to interfere, it would also have to consider twice.”
Li Xiao Bing thought that Fearless was threatening him with the Sanguine Alliance. The Sanguine Alliance was a high-profile guild and it didn’t try to conceal its identity during the previous battle. Naturally, Li Xiao Bing knew that he had lost the battle because of the Sanguine Alliance.
However, besides large-scale competitive clubs, gaming studios were the largest power in the game, with control over the resources and markets in the game. Their network resources might not compare to huge guilds but they remain extremely influential. If they joined forces, even a guild like Sanguine Alliance would not dare to offend these businessmen.
“Hmm!” Seeing Li Xiao Bing’s arrogant behaviour, Fearless was speechless. He simply harrumphed and stopped talking.
Li Xiao Bing continued to act brazenly, “Keke, President Fearless, you don’t have much time. Seeing that you gave such an important channel to that woman, I can tell that your relationship with her is not shallow. My temper is good but I cannot say the same for my underlings. That woman looks pretty good…”
“Shut up!” Li Xiao Bing did not manage to finish his words before Wang Yu exploded in anger.
This barbaric yawp of Wang Yu startled everyone at the table, particularly Fearless. He knew Wang Yu for some time. He knew that while Wang Yu was a martial artist, he had a good upbringing and rarely got angry. Clearly, Li Xiao Bing had passed his bottom line.
After all, while there weren’t any moral restrictions in the game with killing as a common occurrence and kidnapping as an acceptable act, which person would willingly allow his wife to be the bargaining chip in a negotiation? Moreover, Li Xiao Bing’s final words were clearly trying to court disaster.
If Li Xiao Bing simply kidnapped Mu Zi Xian and was willing to let go of her, Wang Yu would probably only kill him a few times to vent his anger. However, Li Xiao Bing actually allowed his subordinates to violate her. This caused the well-tempered Wang Yu to explode. He will not let go of this bast*rd in front of him!
Inferno War Reverent and co. knew of Wang Yu’s abilities. Seeing Wang Yu stand up, they jolted in shock and hurriedly stood up. They took a step back and whipped out their weapons.
“Oh? This is?” Li Xiao Bing only knew that Quan Zhen Sect’s guild master was Fearless. No one else mattered to him. Since he had more people on his side, he remained fearless and calm. However, he did not notice that Wang Yu was so frightening that goosebumps had appeared on his subordinates’ arms.
Fearless, “This is the husband of that woman. In order words, you kidnapped his wife.”
“God!!”
When Inferno War Reverent and Feng Yun Tu Bian heard this, they almost dropped their weapons in fear.
This person was fierce and vicious. If he were to get angry, no one here would be a match for him. Now, their boss actually kidnapped his wife?
“Oh.” Li Xiao Bing nodded, “So that’s why you have to agree, little brother.”
Li Xiao Bing’s words were directed at Wang Yu.
Wang Yu stared at Li Xiao Bing with eyes filled with killing intent, “Let her go and I forget that this matter ever happened!”
“Oh? You are willing to cooperate? However, I’m not sure whether you are willing to represent President Fearless.”
Li Xiao Bing seemed to sense the change in atmosphere. However, with Inferno War Reverent and the rest behind him, he was confident that Wang Yu wouldn’t dare to make a move. He thought that Wang Yu was begging him.
Wang Yu’s eyes turned red, “I’m not negotiating with you. I’m warning you.”
Li Xiao Bing laughed and said provocatively, “What if I don’t?”
“I will make your life thoroughly miserable and kick you out of this game!” Wang Yu said each word one at a time.
Li Xiao Bing chuckled, “Haha! Brother, people have said such words to me before, but without exception, they were merely boasting. In fact, they suffer horribly. Shi Hu, teach this brother some manners!”
“Err? Me?” When Shi Hu heard this, his expression turned ugly.
“Why? You’re not going to listen to my words?” Li Xiao Bing said with slight anger.
“Alright.”
Well, he’s my boss and my meals depend on him. Shi Hu didn’t dare to ignore Li Xiao Bing’s orders and he could only brace himself as he slashed towards Wang Yu. At the same time, he said in the channel, “Help me…”
Wang Yu saw Shi Hu coming over and he dodged to the side. Shi Hi jumped lightly and another slash came swinging.
“Wow, consecutive slashes, he’s an expert…” Fearless was slightly surprised at Shi Hu’s action.
Under the assisted mode, waving a blade was a process that had a start point and an end point. It was different from the independent mode where waving a blade was flexible. Thus, the assisted mode wasn’t as fast as the independent mode.
However, under the independent mode, attack completeness and hit rate were low.
To make up for the speed, assisted mode experts came up with this consecutive slash skill.
When slashing, jumping will end the slashing process, allowing another slash to be swung. One’s proficiency of this skill could be seen from the height of the jump.
The lower the jump, the faster the slash and attack rhythm. From Shi Hu’s jump, he was clearly not weak.
Of course, such a statement was relative. In the eyes of an independent mode expert like Wang Yu, such assisted mode skills couldn’t even be considered proper fighting skills.
Before Shi Hu’s second slash could land, Wang Yu was already between Shi Hu’s arms. His hand arrived at Shi Hu’s neck and he threw Shi Hu onto the table.
“Protruding Rock Skill!”
At this time, Feng Yun Tu Bian waved his staff and a huge rock pillar protruded out of the ground below Wang Yu. Inferno War Reverent and Godless lunged forward and formed a circle around Wang Yu, blocking his path of retreat. Wang Yu didn’t retreat. Instead, he pushed forward. He somersaulted forward, whipped out his Universe Blade and unsheathed it. A ring of blade light swept out towards the people around him.
Attack range was always the weak point of a pugilist. Ever since he found out that this attack had a wide range, Wang Yu would always use this skill when fighting against higher numbers.
“Shua! Shua! Shua! Shua!”
With this attack surging out explosively, four pillars of light rose; Shi Hu and co. were turned into white light at that very spot.
Feng Yun Tu Bian deserved to be called an expert. Before he died, he cast a Great Earth Shield of Li Xiao Bing. Thus, this puny level 10 Li Xiao Bing was actually able to survive.
The Great Earth Shield shattered and an incredulous look emerged on Li Xiao Bing’s face. He looked at Wang Yu as though he was looking at a monster.
Those four people were the strongest experts in Daybreak Studios. In just two exchanges, the four of them were killed with a single attack. Was he dreaming?
Before Li Xiao Bing could react, Wang Yu jumped in front of Li Xiao Bing. His hand arrived at his blade hilt as he prepared to strike.
Fearless suddenly interrupted, “Old Bull, you won’t know where your wife is if you kill him.”
