Chapter 26: Yanyu Pavilion’s Guild Master, Chen Jun
Running into Zhang Yue here was a real surprise for Liu Yao.
At that moment, Lin Yue'er, who had been inseparable from her new flame Liu Yao, appeared by his side once again. Pointing at Zhang Yue, she started to curse loudly, "Back then, Yao-ge invited you to join Supreme Guild, but you refused. Now you'd rather be a dog for Yanyu Pavilion?"
"Zhang Yue, you really are a worthless piece of trash! I can't believe I—"
Boom!
Before Lin Yue'er could finish her sentence, Su Jinyan, who was standing beside Zhang Yue, cast a Fireball, instantly dealing 272 points of damage and one-shotting the frail priestess, Lin Yue'er.
"What the hell?! How did that hit?" Liu Yao's first reaction wasn't to mourn the loss of Lin Yue'er, but rather to jump back several steps in fear.
Su Jinyan smiled sweetly, "Well, at least it's quieter now."
With Zhang Yue standing firm in front of him, Liu Yao found himself in a dilemma—caught between fear and reluctance. On the one hand, he didn't dare engage, but on the other, he didn't want to.
Liu Yao didn't want to become enemies with Zhang Yue. After all, back in the First World, Zhang Yue had already beaten him into submission with sheer strength. Now that Zhang Yue had clearly grown even more powerful, Liu Yao's desire to recruit him into Supreme Guild had only grown stronger.
So, in a bid to sway Zhang Yue, Liu Yao made his offer. "How much is Yanyu Pavilion paying you? I'll double—no, I'll triple it if you join Supreme! I'll even make you a vice president. You'll be the CEO of our guild!"
Liu Yao's offer was so generous that everyone present couldn't help but feel uneasy. Even the members of Yanyu Pavilion, including Zui, were growing anxious. Just when they had seen a glimmer of hope that Zhang Yue might help turn the tide, it seemed like he could switch sides, leaving them all to die and lose the boss in the process.
