DUAN YU looked around the interior of Yunyue’s headquarters. He must admit that whoever was the one who designed this ancient palace really had good aesthetics. Everything was in place, showing how magnificent a palace of the ancient times should be.
It would be good to have some kind of activity between the two teams. Like a friendly fight or something. Their newcomers would definitely learn a lot of things. He then glanced at Zhong Hui. Seeing the other’s dark expression, he couldn’t help but sigh. If the people of Yunyue didn’t give this guy an acceptable explanation, then this meeting would definitely not end in a peaceful manner. His goal of having a friendly relationship with this team might just as well turned into tatters.
That’s why he came here with Zhong Hui. If he left the guy alone, he would definitely use his fist first before asking questions. Then, it could definitely lead to more problems.
Zhong Hui was usually a quiet guy who rarely spoke, as if his words were worth gold. But when things involved Li Xu Min, he would turn into a rabid dog who would bite anyone who dared hurt the person he cared most in the world. So, to avoid a full-blown war against team Yunyue, he had to come here as well and act as some sort of intermediary.
White Marsh led them to a tall double door with the same ancient design. The other opened the door and gestured for them to follow him inside. The opened door was big enough for both Duan Yu and Zhong Hui to walk side by side.
Inside, waiting for them were a white-haired elf and a qilin. The elf was, of course, Noctis and the qilin was none other than Yunyue’s captain – YUN.
Before the arrival of the two, Shen Ji Yun logged out first from his other account and then logged in again using his main one. He couldn’t just meet with the people from Celestials using his other account’s avatar. After all, that account was only known to his team mates and he wanted it to remain that way.
Zhong Hui only saw one thing when he walked inside the huge hall. It was the black fox sitting in the arms of the white-haired elf. He immediately recognized it as the same fox who suddenly transformed into Li Xu Min.
He suspected that this fox was a player with a beastkin race. After all, those with a beastkin race could turn into the beast that was given to them by the game system. For example, a wolf beastkin could turn into a wolf and so on and so forth. Although he hadn’t seen a fox beastkin that had such a small fox form, he still firmly believed in his guess.
That’s why he was even angrier. Because the other didn’t even dare to show his face and just used his fox form. And yet he dared to use Li Xu Min’s face? No, this was not just the fault of that fox. Yunyue was even more responsible. Because it seemed like everyone in the said team was in cahoots to use Li Xu Min’s face for whatever reason.
Zhong Hui was not usually easy to anger. But if one touched his reverse scale, then expect to be retaliated.
Eclipse buried his face on Luo Yan’s arms. [Mashter, that man is glaring at Eclipse as if he wants to eat him. Eclipse is scared.]
Luo Yan had also seen the way the Angel who came with Uriel looked at the little fox. He must say that Eclipse’s description was really on point. He rubbed the little fox’s fluffy head. [Don’t be scared. Master and Captain are both here. Nothing will happen to you.]
He then raised his head and looked at this intimidating Angel. He smiled and tried to be as approachable as possible. After all, this thing was really their fault. Suddenly appearing in front of them and then transforming into the form of their captain, of course, there would be discontent.
"There seems to be a misunderstanding," he said in a friendly manner.
But the Angel completely ignored Luo Yan and said in a very gruff tone as if he was planning to skin someone alive, "Give me the fox."
The smile on Luo Yan’s face completely disappeared. Although he admitted that they were really a bit at fault for this matter, that didn’t mean he would just stand here and be bullied.
But before he could do anything, a wide back suddenly filled his line of vision. He didn’t notice that Shen Ji Yun had already walked in front of him and blocked him from behind.
A warm touch flowed to his heart. Although he could protect himself, being protected by others once in a while was not such a bad feeling. More especially if that other person was the one in his heart.
Shen Ji Yun looked back coldly at this impertinent guy. "I thought you’re here to hear our explanation? Then, isn’t your priority too skewed? What are you doing asking my precious team mate to hand over his pet? Or do you simply have some screws loose?"
Bai Ze almost face-palmed. Shen Ji Yun’s tongue could be really quite poisonous if he just so wanted. Really, how terrifying. This friend of his probably didn’t even recognize Zhong Hui. Well, the other was only at their high school for a semester before transferring out. But still.
The haze of anger in Zhong Hui’s mind was temporary diluted because of what the captain of Yunyue said. "That fox... is a pet?"
Yunyue’s captain only looked at him as if he’s brain dead. And that look already answered his question. Somehow, he felt a bit embarrassed. It’s a good thing that he usually had a stern face so his embarrassment really didn’t show. But because of this impasse, his calm slowly came back to him.
Duan Yu suddenly clapped to get everyone’s attention. When they were all looking at him, he smiled and said, "Captain YUN has a point. We do want to hear your explanation about this matter."
Luo Yan walked out from behind Shen Ji Yun. Seeing that things had somehow calmed down, he also smiled. "Yes, we’ll be happy to do so."
