Chapter 767 - Devil World Riders (1/2)

Drowned Fish and the others noticed Nie Yan looking over in their direction. It felt like his sharp gaze could pierce their hearts.

It was only a brief glance, but Drowned Fish felt his back drenched with cold sweat. After watching so many videos of Nie Yan’s battles, they knew just how powerful he was.

They held their breaths as they felt their hearts tighten.

「Boss, I think Nirvana Flame discovered us,」one of the Thieves said, his voice trembling.

Nie Yan had accurately pinpointed their location from such a far distance away. This was truly frightening.

From their point of view, being spotted by Nirvana Flame meant death.

Nie Yan only gave them a brief glance before turning back his head.

「Did he not discover us?」

「No, he found us.」Drowned Fish shook his head.

「Then, why didn’t he come over to deal with us?」

「Probably because we're not worth it. Come on, let’s go,」Drowned Fish said. Nie Yan already gave them a warning. If they continued lingering around any longer, they would end up as corpses on the ground.

Thinking to this point, they were just about to retreat, when a silhouette soared through the air. A Warrior leaped off the roof of a nearby building and landed in front of Nie Yan.

“Nie Yan, I’m here.” Lei Su chuckled.

Just as Lei Su’s feet touched the ground, multiple silhouettes came rushing over from all around. The fastest were the Magisters. They crossed the 600 meters from the far end of the street to Nie Yan in a flash by consecutively casting Blink.

What amazing speed! That must be a Magister! Drowned Fish and the others were dumbstruck. Consecutive blinks were too frightening.

It was a gathering of Masters, 21 in total. What were they planning to do?

Lei Su glanced over at Drowned Fish’s group, then turned back to Nie Yan. “Should we get rid of those guys?”

“They’re only low level Thieves. Give them a minute. If they don’t get the hint, get rid of them,” Nie Yan said.

If Drowned Fish's party heard Nie Yan’s words, who knew what their reaction would be like. They were considered experts by ordinary players. However, in front of Nie Yan and these other Masters, they really were nothing more than ants.

「Boss, I recorded everything down!」a player excitedly said. The astonishing speed of those Masters was all captured on video. If he shared this clip on the forums, who knew what kind of reaction it would trigger.

「We’re retreating!」

「No, Boss! Let’s keep watching.」

「They’ve discovered us. We’re already testing their patience by staying here. If we don’t leave, they’ll kill us.」Drowned Fish could still judge the situation with a cool head. Looking up ahead, six Thieves were talking to each other. His eyes burned with a hint of envy and fervor. Those were all Shadow Dancers, the goal of countless Thieves. Asskickers United had a total of six! He wondered if one day he could stand at the apex among the likes of Nirvana Flame and Sun, or if he would never reach such heights in this lifetime. At the very least, he could dream.

Drowned Fish’s party retreated, disappearing behind a corner.

“They’ve left,” Lei Su said.

Nie Yan glanced at Shadow Killer. He was recruited into Asskickers United only recently by Guo Huai. Since he was busy with his class advancement quest at the time, the two of them never got a chance to meet until now.

“Long time no see.” Nie Yan faintly smiled.

Shadow Killer forced a bitter smile. The complicated emotions stirring in his heart right now couldn’t be described with words. After all, Nie Yan had put him through living hell. Yet he still ended up joining Asskickers United.

Over these past couple of months, Shadow Killer had experienced what it was like to be abandoned by everyone he trusted. Even though he was reaping what he sowed and had no one to blame but himself, he still felt resentful toward Nie Yan; it was easier to blame someone else for your own mistakes.

For whatever reason, who knew why, he put these feelings aside and in the end agreed to join Asskickers United.

In front of Nie Yan, he felt like a complete loser. But at the same time, he also felt a hint of reverence toward Nie Yan. This was a complicated emotion.

“I might be in Asskickers United now, but that doesn’t mean the business between us is settled. It won’t be today, but one day I’ll definitely wipe away this disgrace,” Shadow Killer said heavily.
