Chapter 191 - Fall Into the Trap

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Screams continued to ring out in the forest.

Without a leader, the ragtag group from the Proud Guild was in shambles.

Soon after, countless members of the Proud Guild threw away their weapons and escaped from the forest in a sorry state.

They shouted for help as they ran.

A figure hiding not far away watched this scene.

His eyes were filled with regret.

“The Proud Guild has so many members, but they are all cowards. Once their leader falls, they immediately ran away.”

“The Proud Guild of Emperor City is an incompetent guild to begin with. Do you really think it’s the same everywhere?”

A familiar voice had unknowingly appeared from the side.

Misty World had already appeared outside the forest.

After that figure bowed to Misty World , he disappeared without a trace.

Martial World did not pay much attention to that person. He just stood there without making any movements, as if he was waiting for someone.

Sure enough, after a short while, Sun Conqueror rushed over.

At first, Sun Conqueror thought that the Proud Guild would only send a few small players to carry out the sneak attack.

He never thought that the Proud Guild would send out their full force, and their target was Li Yi, that he had lured in.

This time, he was in a panicked state.

What if Li Yi misunderstood that this was a trap set up by him and the Proud Guild.

Thus, the moment he got the news from the dungeon, he immediately rushed over with the elites of the Scorching Sun guild.

When he arrived outside the forest, he saw Misty World already standing outside.

“Misty World… Why is he here? Could this matter be related to him?”

Sun Conqueror held his greatsword in his hand and cautiously slowed down his footsteps as he walked towards Misty World.

“Misty World, what are you doing here?”

“Oh, Sun Conqueror, right? Thank you for participating in the first war in Emperor City. If it wasn’t for you and your guild, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have been able to obtain so many points that easily.”

“Ditto to you too. Are the Proud Guild members inside?”

“Yeah, they just left. Sun Conqueror, if you chase after them now, you might even be able to get a few more heads.”

Hearing what Misty World said, Sun Conqueror started to panic. If the Proud Guild really came, then Li Yi’s safety would be at stake.

However, when facing Misty World, Sun Conqueror did not want to lose his composure too much. After all, the two of them could be considered competitors.

“You haven’t told me what you’re here for.”

Misty World smiled slightly, but his smile always gave people a sense of danger.

Sun Conqueror unconsciously took half a step back.

“If you have something to say, say it. Don’t show such a strange expression.”

“Really? This is clearly a sincere smile I have on my face right now.”

“There’s not a trace of sincerity on it. It looks scary and not sincere. You’d better not smile in the future. Other people might get the wrong idea.”

“Looks like I’ll have to keep this smile for special occasions then.”

“…”

Misty World no longer paid attention to Sun Conqueror. Instead, he walked into the forest.

Sun Conqueror was a little angry. He did not give the answer he wanted, so he left. What an inconsiderate man!

Sun Conqueror followed Misty World into the forest. He was going to enter as well. After all, Li Yi and his subordinates were still inside.

In the forest, Li Yi and his friends were picking up equipment dropped by the Proud Guild members.

There were many good crossbows.

Even if these things were not used, there would be a lot of materials gained from it if they broke it down.

When the time came, they would let Incompetent Pig and the others forge other things, and it could be another batch of good equipment.

Moreover, right now, Incompetent Pig and the others’ proficiency was not high enough.

They just needed some materials to practice.

When Misty World and Sun Conqueror entered the forest, they saw Li Yi and the others tirelessly picking up equipment on the ground. They were slightly surprised with this scene.

After all, he was the strongest in Emperor City. Why did he look like a little money-grubber right now?

“Carefree Dream really doesn’t care about his image, huh?”

Misty World walked over and looked around.

The battle had already ended.

Observing the surroundings, the battlefield was still filled with the smell of gunpowder and dust.

Li Yi frowned when he saw Misty World and Sun Conqueror.

Now, evenLi Yi was wondering why Misty World was here.

Li Yi did not directly pay attention to Misty World. Instead, he walked to Sun Conqueror’s side and asked why he came here with Misty World.

When he learned that Misty World was outside the forest, Li Yi thought about something.

What was Misty World’s plam? Why did he deliberately wait for Sun Conqueror?

If he did not have a plan, why would he wait for this guy whom he did not even care about.

It was actually not difficult to understand the whole situation.

Misty World had told him what was about to happen to Li Yi.

This meant that there must be someone hiding by Li Yi’s side.

The identity of this person was still unknown.

The most coincidental thing was that after Sun Conqueror sent a cry for help to Li Yi, Sun Conqueror was not there, and Li Yi’s whereabouts were exposed.

Misty World Was the one that provided him with the information.

If Misty World did not give the information, the battle situation would have been different.

It was normal for Li Yi to have doubts about Misty World.

Then after the battle ended, the Sun Conqueror and Misty World appeared at the same time.

Was this a coincidence?

Definitely not.

Then what was the real reason?

There was only one possibility that could be used as an explanation.

That was that the news of Misty World was obtained from Sun Conqueror, and Misty World told Li Yi about the news of the Proud Guild.

Now was the time for guilds to overpower one another.

The purpose of Misty World helping was also very clear. They definitely wanted to form an alliance.

This thought appeared in Li Yi’s mind. However, the moment this question appeared, it was doubted.

Misty World and Li Yi were already considered allies.

Although the two were estranged from each other.

On the surface, they were still allies.

Moreover, Li Yi and the Scorching Sun Guild were also allies.

Otherwise, they would not have come to save the members of the Scorching Sun Guild.

If it was really his previous guess, Li Yi felt that Misty World’s actions were a little too much.

Misty World would never make such a mistake.

However, that was the only conclusion Li Yi could make.

Misty World’s thoughts were too intricate, and Li Yi could not pinpoint the true reason for him being here.

The seemingly superfluous actions definitely had a reason.

However, what was the real purpose?

Li Yi looked around at the people around him.

He had a bad feeling about something.

Li Yi looked at Positive Barry.

This man… might not be as simple as he thought.

Of course, Li Yi would not deliberately show his suspicions. He smiled at Misty World and Sun Conqueror.

After picking up the loot, he left with his team.

One thing was clear, no matter what, Misty World will forever remain a mystery.

Speaking to him will just make Li Yi fall into his trap.

Looking at Li Yi and the others who left without saying goodbye, the corners of Misty Lake’s mouth rose.

“I see..”
