Chapter 130 A different Mu Wuying
Almost two minutes passed.
During these approximately 120 seconds, the players around the area had run out of words to describe how they felt at this moment.
In a little less than two minutes, the small army of a little more than a hundred players was almost completely decimated and only about ten players were still standing.
Xie Feng could have eliminated these players much faster if he had used skills like Black Lightning, Fast Movement, and Cloud Path. However, because he had to dodge, block, chase, and attack players, the difficulty of doing so many tasks at once made things more difficult for him.
Even when he had to fight against so many players at the same time and without using any fighting skills, Xie Feng had an average of one player killed for each second! This meant that for each little second that passed and for each swing of his spear, a player in the small army died!
Players who watched the mini-war process from beginning to end were stunned as they made sure to record what happened in case their friends called them crazy in the future.
Another thing that happened during this time was that the number of players prowling the map had increased exponentially and now the number of players watching had surpassed the tens of thousands!
*Ding! *
*Ding!*
The communication tools on Yang Tian’s and Mu Wuying’s wrists sounded almost at the same time and both quickly read the message received.
"Well, clearly the show has just begun. Fortunately I also prepared myself just in case..." Yang Tian murmured. He looked at the crowd and saw that there were many players who, although they had no guild, had a small note attached to their names to express the side they belonged to.
More than a thousand players from the King’s Land guild had arrived!
Mu Wuying frowned and a look of worry shone in her beautiful eyes. The message she had just received was from a female player named Blue Bird; Mu Wuying’s right hand. In the message, Blue Bird warned Mu Wuying that almost five thousand players from the God of Heaven guild and five thousand more from the Sacred Wings guild had begun to move in her direction.
A total of ten thousand players!
Although the guilds could not yet demonstrate their true power due to system restrictions, the big guilds and people with power in the real world could gather a few thousand. Mu Wuying could also do it if she wanted to, but doing so would cause her goal to become much more difficult to realize in the future.
Mu Wuying bit her lower lip hard while trying to think of countermeasures.
Xie Yao, who was standing beside Mu Wuying, saw her worried and couldn’t help but ask quietly, "Did something happen?"
Mu Wuying looked at her silently for a moment and shook her head. But then she sighed and nodded: "A huge army of ten thousand players were gathered by Yao Zenyu and Nangong Lei... They tried to overwhelm Xie Feng with numbers."
"Then we must warn Xie Feng!" Gu Qianxue said in a worried tone of voice. She clenched her teeth and did not hesitate to express her disdain: "Those two cowards! Xie Feng not only killed them but also killed over a hundred players by himself and now they are trying to regain some honor by doing something like this? They will only look even more pitiful!"
"The problem is that after what just happened, two of the five main families lost a lot of face in front of thousands of people. You also know how important prestige is to our families, don’t you, Qianxue?" Mu Wuying asked.
Gu Qianxue nodded: "In fact..."
Mu Wuying smiled bitterly and shook her head: "When the video of what happened today becomes public... There will be many problems... Even my family ordered me to collaborate with the Nangong and Yao family just now." She looked at Xie Yao and saw that she was looking at her cautiously, so Mu Wuying smiled softly and said with bitterness: "Calm down... I would never do anything to hurt him."
Xie Yao frowned and felt uncomfortable at Mu Wuying’s words.
"Hey. Xie Yao... Why do you seem to hate me so much? Is it because I was Xie Feng’s girlfriend in the past?" Mu Wuying couldn’t help but ask after seeing the look on Xie Yao’s face.
Xie Yao opened her lips for a moment but then closed them again as she did not know what to say. She did not understand why she was okay sharing Xie Feng’s love with Gu Qianxue but did not feel comfortable with Mu Wuying.
Seeing her in silence, Mu Wuying smiled bitterly and looked back at the battle leader; there, Xie Feng had just killed the last remaining player in the small army of one hundred.
It was then that Xie Yao’s voice sounded in her ears, making Mu Wuying turn her gaze to look at her:
"It’s not that I hate you... To be honest, I don’t even know how I feel about you myself." Xie Yao looked Mu Wuying straight in the eyes and, for the first time, expressed her feelings and thoughts: "It’s just... For some reason I don’t know, somehow I feel inferior to you. It’s not about beauty, maturity, or anything like that... Even I can’t explain it." Xie Yao shook her head. The inferiority she felt was simply too difficult to express and even difficult to understand for herself.
She just knew that somehow, she felt that something was missing and Mu Wuying had that something. It was something that no other woman could have, but Xie Yao didn’t know what it was.
Mu Wuying’s red lips opened slightly and a slightly surprised look glowed in her eyes for a moment. She did not know what to say, as Xie Yao’s words were too vague.
"What do you mean by inferiority, girl? Your beauty is not inferior to mine and you are the most important person in Xie Feng’s life. If there is anyone who should feel inferior, it will be me, not you." Mu Wuying sighed to herself.
Xie Yao did not respond. She naturally knew that the most important person to Xie Feng was her... But that feeling of inferiority, which was difficult to explain, was still there.
Gu Qianxue heard the conversation between them as she looked at the two women in silence. Although she only met Xie Yao about half a month ago, somehow Gu Qianxue felt she could understand her a little.
Before, every time Gu Qianxue saw Mu Wuying she felt connected; like seeing a sister or a best friend. But, since she met Xie Feng and knew that Mu Wuying was his ex-girlfriend, Gu Qianxue somehow felt on guard toward her. It was inferiority that almost reached the level of fear of loss that had no apparent explanation.
The atmosphere became somewhat uncomfortable among the three women, so none said anything else.
Yang Tian, who was a straightforward man and didn’t think too deeply, interrupted at that precise moment: "Hey, Princess of the Mu Family."
"Em?" Mu Wuying looked at him questioningly. She and Yang Tian never talked more than necessary in the past, so she did not understand why he would talk to her now.
"Correct me if I am wrong but... As I understand it, something bad happened when you were still young and for some reason, your family expressed that you could never fall in love in the future. It was also said that your special power is incredibly powerful to the point that your Mu family could surpass all the main families, except one..." Yang Tian had a confused look on his face when he asked: "But, from what I just heard, you and that little monster over there were lovers some time ago... What the hell is going on here?"
Mu Wuying winked for a moment because she didn’t expect that kind of question. However, she soon narrowed her eyes and with the charm of a fully grown woman, she smiled seductively: "Hehe... You will see. Just make some popcorn and watch the fun carefully..." Her eyes suddenly cooled slightly and she said with indifference: "Because when all this is finally over, all of China will tremble!"
When Yang Tian noticed the almost imperceptible chill that passed through Mu Wuying’s eyes, he couldn’t help but shudder a little. He flipped his hair a little and murmured:
"Man, women are really dangerous."
Xie Yao looked at Mu Wuying in surprise, as she had never seen her show that kind of look in the past.
Gu Qianxue also looked at her with surprise, since in her 18 years of life, she only heard praise from everyone towards Mu Wuying. But apparently, nothing was as simple as it seemed.
Mu Wuying soon had that gentle and serene smile that characterized her so much, and as she looked forward, she saw a cloud of dust slowly rising as the ground shook more and more.
