Chapter 231: The words that he was unable to say out loud, he wanted to say them through... (2/2)
God, even the big fanfiction writers didn’t dare to write about the great demon king like this!
Only Wei Xiao got to see this kind of Close. It was over…
He was so happy that he wanted to explode!
Wei Xiao desperately tried to press the corners of his mouth down, trying not to let them rise up towards the sun.
“What’s there to be jealous about?”
Lu Feng: “……”

Wei Xiao: “Captain Yan attaches great importance to me…”
The hand wrapped around his waist tightened.
Wei Xiao laughed. “But Captain Yuan and God Kim are both very good to me too.”
Lu Feng was silent.
Wei Xiao rubbed at the back of his hand and whispered, “They and I are chance acquaintances. It’s because of you that they take care of me.”
The careless and bold Wei Xiao, who seemed to be able to get along with everyone, was actually very clear on how things worked.
Whether it was Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, Xie He, who wasn’t good at communicating, or the enigmatic Yan Jiang, they all paid a lot of attention to Wei Xiao.
Was there anything about Wei Xiao that was worth their attention?
Wei Xiao didn’t think so.
There were many excellent professional players, and he wasn’t good enough to attract the attention of so many peak level players.
In the final analysis, the reason for the current situation was Lu Feng.
Even if they didn’t know about the relationship between Wei Xiao and Lu Feng, they all knew how important Wei Xiao was.
He was very important to both Close and FTW.
Regardless of whether it was Yuan Ze, Kim Sung-hyun, or Xie He and Yan Jiang…
Three years had passed. There were many things that couldn’t be said, and many things that could no longer be done.
The past wouldn’t come back, and all that could be seen was the present.
Wei Xiao was Close’s current teammate.
“Captain…” Wei Xiao turned around and rubbed against him. “They all really…”
Care about you.

These last three words were spoken very, very lightly. They were like a cool breeze on a summer night, inadvertently solving all the troubles in one’s heart.
Lu Feng hugged him.
Wei Xiao heard him whisper quietly, “I know.”
Wei Xiao’s heart suddenly softened into a pool of water.
There was no need to say more.
Wei Xiao understood Lu Feng.
From beginning to end, from three years ago until now, from the breaking up of the Team of Gods, through the entirety of FTW’s bumpy road…
When faced with teammates leaving, partners who left without saying goodbye, and fragmented homes, Close, who’d been left to support everything on his own, had never blamed anyone.
These big brothers all felt guilty about leaving Close alone.
But the last thing Close wanted was their guilt.
It wasn’t anger or pride. He simply didn’t want them to bear such a heavy burden.
The past was long gone.
There was no right or wrong.
Close didn’t want to bind anyone with the past.
In these past three years of globals, he’d been very eager to rush into the top eight and was very much looking forward to meeting them there.
The words that he was unable to say out loud, he wanted to say them through a fierce battle in the arena.
Unfortunately, there hadn’t been a chance to do so.
FTW couldn’t make it into the global team competition, and the others had given up on the singles.
Wei Xiao’s eyes were red. “There’s a chance this time.”

Lu Feng didn’t say anything, but the corners of his lips tightened.
Wei Xiao kissed his eyes and said softly, “We’ll definitely be able to do it this time.”
Break into the top eight, charge into the top four, and win the world championship.
Not just to prove themselves.
It was more about telling them––
There had been no harm, no pain, and no one had been in the wrong.
Staying behind and leaving were both difficult choices.
There was no need to feel guilty or to feel regret.
It’s all good.
From facing that disaster until now, they were still able to step out in glory.
***
There were eight games in total for the 16 to 8. As the host team, FTW would be taking part in the first day of the official games.
There were three games on the first day. The first game was between Y1, and the ST competition zone’s champion team.
FTW was slated for the second game. They arrived early and watched the game while making their preparations backstage.
Chen Feng: “I wonder what Y1 will take in the first match.”
The battle of freedom had already become the biggest attraction for the game.
Tang Chen: “The medicine warlock?”
Bai Cai’s eyes were sharp. “They locked it in!”
Chen Feng mused, “Y1 isn’t easy to provoke this year.”

Brother Cai sighed. “Y1 isn’t easy to provoke every year…”
However, he knew what Chen Feng meant. Y1 would be particularly difficult to deal with this year.
Glory obviously required change. If there was any team who centered around their support as their core, then Y1 was a well-deserved first.
They’d already been strong enough, but now…
A medicine warlock and a soul warlock…
Just based on these two matches, if their opponent’s mentality collapsed even just slightly in the third match, they would be crushed 3:0.
The team from ST obviously collapsed.
They’d been badly beaten in the first match, then beaten up again until their scalps were numb in the second match. By the third match…
The audience couldn’t bear to look at it directly!
The venue, which could hold tens of thousands of people, was filled with the sound of booing.
It was disappointing that such a large-scale event had played out like this.
Fortunately, there was a big event coming up next.
FTW vs IN!
The audience began to get excited as soon as the two teams appeared.
IN had really found trouble for themselves. They could have picked anyone to offend, yet they insisted on going for the local competition zone’s champion team.
Even without mentioning the FTW fans, even the professional haters had stopped work tonight in order to consistently point their spearheads outwards instead. They wished that they could all upgrade their English to CET-8 levels and flame IN on the foreign live broadcast rooms.
The host certainly wouldn’t mention these things directly during the interview prior to the game. Instead, they asked implicitly, “Are you confident?”
Wei Xiao smiled slightly. “There’s a surprise for everyone.”
The host: “Oh?”

The audience had already started shouting, “3:0! 3:0!”
Wei Xiao certainly wouldn’t talk carelessly on such an important occasion. He smiled like a fox. “We won’t leave anyone disappointed.”
Alright then, that was blatant enough.
3:0 or something like that, it really wouldn’t be a surprise.
During the blind hero selection part of the first match, after Wei Xiao locked in the soul warlock, the audience finally reacted, “Holy sh*t! FTW is going to stir things up!”
The author has something to say:
The globals are here~
