The Return Of The God Level Assassin

BEFORE Luo Yan could observe the newly arrived man further, Shen Ji Yun already stood between them. Acting like a shield. He could even see tautness of his body. As if he was ready to start an attack if the guy would so much as make a wrong move.

The guy seemed to also notice this because he suddenly raised both hands as if in surrender. "Hey, relax. I come in peace. The fact that I gave you that medicine should be enough to show my goodwill."

What he just said showed that he was the famous ’godly doctor’. That and his entrance only made it glaringly obvious that he was also a player like them. That’s what Luo Yan thought.

"What do you want?" Shen Ji Yun asked straightforwardly, not even trying to beat around the bush.

"You should already know what it is I want," the man said.

"If you wanted to team up, I’ll only agree if you let him be the leader," Shen Ji Yun said, clearly referring to Luo Yan.

Luo Yan who was still sitting behind couldn’t help but raised his head towards Shen Ji Yun. But because he was facing the other direction, all he could see was his straight back. Well, it’s kind of nice. Being maintained like this. He thought and didn’t even notice the smile that crossed his lips.

The guy raised one of his brows. He wanted to look at young man sitting on the bed, but the captain of Yunyue was standing firmly between them. So all he could see was a part of the young man’s red robe. He smiled, suddenly full of interest.

"If I’m not mistaken, he’s one of the two new additions to your team. The moon elf, isn’t it?" he suddenly asked.

"What of it?" Shen Ji Yun said, not liking the tone of the man’s voice.

"Well, I just didn’t expect that the well-known iceberg captain of Yunyue could maintain his new team mate so well," the man commented. Then he smiled knowingly. "He must be pretty special."

Luo Yan finally couldn’t help but peek over Shen Ji Yun’s back to look at the white-robed man. He blinked his big peach blossom eyes at him. "But isn’t it only natural for captains to take care of his members? Or does the big brother’s captain not care about you at all?" he said innocently.

The man stared at the pretty face that peeked over. It was full of innocence and naivety. He was known for his ability to read people. But even he couldn’t tell if the expression he’s seeing right now was true or not. He chuckled. This was somewhat refreshing.

"Oh, my captain cares about his members. Probably even a little bit too much," he said, an image of their - clumsy, sometimes idiotic, but always dependable when it counted - captain crossed his mind.

"What team does big brother belong to?" Luo Yan asked, not because he’s curious but because he just felt like the man’s face was slightly familiar.

"I’m from team Celestials. You can call me Uriel."

When he heard that, something flashed in Luo Yan’s mind. A player with golden brown hair and wearing an all-white costume, standing alone in the corner and trying to lessen his presence. This guy was the only member of team Celestials who attended this event. Who would have thought he would end up in the same door as him and Shen Ji Yun?

Duan Yu – Uriel – stared at the two. There wasn’t any noticeable change in their expression after he told them his game account name. YUN still remained expressionless and the elf currently dressed as a girl didn’t even show any surprise. That’s a good way to curb his ego. And here he thought his name was quite well-known as the strategist of team Celestials.

He attended this event because he received information that all three remaining members of Yunyue would attend. They usually didn’t attend these kinds of events. So when he received that information, he was truly surprised. He just had to take a look himself. But what surprised him more was the addition of two more players in their team.

Duan Yu wanted to observe the dynamics of this new Yunyue. But then the event forced the players to separate. And his plans almost went down the drain. After all, the possibility of him and those five being in the same door was almost zero. But it looked like luck was still with him. Because he still ended up in the same door as the captain of Yunyue and one of their new members. With these two, he could definitely still gather useful information on the new Yunyue.

Then him reneging on his appointment with Song Liuli wouldn’t be for naught. That girl was definitely spitting mad right now. It would probably take days before he could coax her completely. So he had to make this worthwhile.

Speaking of Liuli, this elf could really give her a ran for her money. Duan Yu looked again at the elf currently crossdressing as a courtesan. It was actually because of him that he recognized YUN. He was watching the banquet from afar because he knew something would happen there. Because of his role’s character, he wasn’t supposed to attend the banquet even if the crown prince himself invited him.

When he saw YUN holding the pretty courtesan, he immediately put two and two together and guessed their identities. That was only further proven when YUN appeared earlier and asked him for an antidote. Even if he said that it’s the crown prince’s order, a real dark guard wouldn’t show too much concern for a random courtesan. No matter how pretty they were.

Duan Yu stared at the elf’s features. Well, he’s certainly pretty. But Liuli was still definitely a level higher. Besides, what’s the use of prettiness in a guy? All the girls would just be insecure to be with you.

Shen Ji Yun moved and blocked this Uriel guy’s gaze. He didn’t like the way he’s looking at Luo Yan, as if he’s observing some product or something.

Duan Yu found YUN’s movement rather interesting. It seemed like he was really protective of this new member of his team.

"Giving your team mate the leadership is simply unfair, don’t you think? If I didn’t give you that antidote, he would have already been kicked out of the game. So tell me, why should I concede the leadership?" he said, just to test the waters and ruffled their feathers a bit.

"You’re the one who asked to team up," Shen Ji Yun simply said. "I didn’t force you to give me that antidote. So expecting that I will just agree for you to be the leader just because of what you did was your fault alone."

Duan Yu was left speechless. Something that didn’t happen often. Who would have thought that this expressionless iceberg would have such a sharp tongue?
