Chapter 1315 Our Target Was Player Yuan?!
1315 Our Target Was Player Yuan?!
As Yuan lingered in the Enchanted Bamboo Forest and news of his presence spread online, more and more Players traveled there to meet him.
However, upon their arrival, they were surprised to find hundreds of Players blocking their path, almost like a group of bodyguards during a concert.
"Hey! Who the hell are you guys?! Get out of our way! We're here to meet Player Yuan!" One of the Players there angrily shouted.
"You don't need to know our identity. The only thing you need to know is that you aren't allowed past this point. You can try if you'd like, but you'll die." One of the Players blocking the path said.
The Ten Great Families did not want any interruptions while they hunted Player Yuan, hence the blockade. Furthermore, it was to prevent Player Yuan from escaping.
Sometime later, Yuan suddenly stopped his interaction with his fans when he sensed a chilling aura appear in the distance.
This aura did not come from a single individual. It was created by a group of ominous beings.
'They are finally here, huh.'
Yuan looked at his fans, and not wanting to involve them in his battle, he said to them, "Sorry, but I have to end things here and continue my quest."
"Eh?! Already?! Please stay with us a little longer!"
"You haven't signed my weapon yet!"
Yuan then said, "I will do this again at a later date and a proper location. I have already memorized all of your faces here, so if I see you at the next location, I will give you priority."
And without saying another word, Yuan left the crowd.
However, while some Players decided to let him go, most of the Players there actually followed Yuan.
Of course, Yuan had expected this.
'After all, you're all just fake fans trying to stall me…'
Yuan couldn't care less if these Players were caught up in his battle with the Exiles, as they were already involved in the first place.
"Please wait, Player Yuan! There's still something I must tell you!"
"Where do you think you are going, Player Yuan?! I will not let you leave until you fight me!"
These Players tried every tactic available to stall him, as they had misunderstood his current action as running away, and they were all tasked with stalling him until the main forces arrived.
"If you can catch me, I'll listen to what you have to say," Yuan said to the Players before speeding up a little.
Unsurprisingly, most of the Players there were left in the dust by his speed. Only those with superior cultivation managed to keep up, but even then, they were barely keeping up with Yuan.
"Oh? Not bad. How about this?" Yuan sped up even more.
"What?! How the hell is he moving so fast?! I have a Heaven-
rank movement technique and I cannot keep up!"
As the Players desperately tried to keep up with Yuan, he continued to increase his speed every few minutes.
However, Yuan made sure to remain in these Players' sight, as he did not want the Ten Great Families to think that he had left.
Once he was close enough to the Exiles, Yuan decided to leave the Players behind, disappearing from their sight like a ghost.
"What the hell?! Where did he go?!"
"He couldn't have gone far! Spread out and look for him! We cannot lose track of him when the main forces are so close! We'll be executed if he gets away!"
These Players desperately began searching for Yuan, unaware that he had already arrived before the main forces.
Yuan stopped moving when he came across the Ten Great Families and the Exiles.
Xiong Lu almost couldn't believe his eyes when Yuan appeared before them like a ghost.
'It's really him! It's Player Yuan! But why the hell is he here? What happened to the guys watching over him?!'
The others didn't immediately realize Yuan had appeared before them, but when they saw Xiong Lu's surprised face, they began realizing their situation.
"Y-You… Player Yuan?" Fiery Queen subconsciously muttered.
Yuan looked at her and said, "If you're asking for a signature, I am no longer giving out signatures today."
All of the Players there realized they were standing before Player Yuan after he acknowledged it.
"Wow! Is it really Player Yuan? What's he doing here?"
"This is my first time seeing him in person! How lucky!"
Besides the Players from the Ten Great Families, everyone there did not know they were going to be hunting Yuan in just a moment.
"What a coincidence, Player Yuan. I've been looking for you. You have no idea how much I have wanted to see you since our last encounter." Xiong Lu suddenly said.
Yuan looked at him and asked, "Have we met before? I don't recall meeting you before, though."
"I'm not surprised, since it was only briefly. By the way, where's that little girl who was with you before?"
"She left to do something for me. Why are you looking for her?" Yuan tilted his head in a puzzled manner.
"Because—"
"Hey! Why the hell did we stop?! The Asura Clan's Exile will get away at this point!" One of the Exiles suddenly roared out loud.
"How dare you stop and chat while in the middle of something so important?! Do you want to die?!" Another shouted.
Xiong Lu turned to look at the group behind him and calmly said, "We stopped because we have arrived at our destination—
at our target."
"What the fuck are you talking about?! Besides us, I don't sense the presence of an Exile nearby!"
Xiong Lu pointed at Yuan and continued, "That's because she isn't here right now. However, her partner is right here. If we capture him, she will definitely come to save him."
"What?! Our target was Player Yuan?! You didn't tell me about this!" One of the Players there exclaimed in shock.
"I also wasn't told about this! What is the meaning of this?! Did you lie to us?!"
The Players began shouting with clear disbelief on their faces.
