1314 Why Don't You Work With Me Instead
'Should I go outside or wait for Brother Yuan's return?' Xiao Hua asked Yuan through divine sense.
'Go with them. We'll meet up in a bit.' Yuan quickly responded.
'Un.' Xiao Hua acknowledged.
Shortly after being summoned, all of the Exiles and their partners gathered right outside the manor.
As Players from the Ten Great Families stood before a little over 200 individuals, Xiong Lu spoke in a loud voice, "Fortunately for us, our target wandered into our crosshair and was spotted at Enchanted Bamboo Forest just a few minutes ago. I have already sent some people to delay the Asura Clan's Exile for as long as possible, so we need to move immediately."
"Delaying someone from the Asura Clan? Hah! Those people are probably long dead!" One of the Exiles there sneered out loud.
"I am aware of our opponent's strength, and I did not send a mere ten or hundred people. I called over a thousand people to delay her."
"Even ten thousand ordinary people would not be enough!" Another Exile shouted.
"That's why we need to stop chatting here and move already!" Xiong Lu exclaimed.
"Let's go!"
And without saying anything else, they began marching towards the Enchanted Bamboo Forest.
Fiery Queen subconsciously glanced at Xiao Hua, who had an overwhelming presence and stood out even though she was at the very end of the formation.
'Hmm? Where's her partner?' Fiery Queen raised an eyebrow when she could not see Xiao Yang anywhere in the crowd.
'Is he not here…? This is perfect…' A mysterious smile appeared on Fiery Queen's face as she approached Xiao Hua.
"Where is your partner?" Fiery Queen asked Xiao Hua a moment later.
"I don't know. He disappeared into thin air and hasn't returned since." Xiao Hua nonchalantly responded.
'So he logged off? I thought we told the recruiters to call everyone on the roster to make sure they are not offline…' Fiery Queen thought to herself.
'Oh well. This works perfectly for me.'
"Correct me if I am wrong, but your name is Tian Hua." Fiery Queen recalled the fake name Yuan had given them.
Xiao Hua calmly nodded, acknowledging it.
"What do you think of your partner, Xiao Yang?" Fiery Queen then asked.
"..."
After a brief moment of silence, Xiao Hua said, "He's weak and lacking in talent."
Fiery Queen's eyes flickered with excitement after hearing such an answer, and she quickly said, "In that case, why don't you work with me instead? I can assure you that I am both stronger and more talented than your current partner. After all, without the help of an Exile, I have managed to achieve Spirit Grandmaster by myself. If I have a powerful Exile like you by my side, I will definitely be able to help you achieve your goals."
Of course, she had spent an unimaginable amount of her family's fortune to purchase gold and treasures from other Players to reach such a point.
'How annoying…' Xiao Hua sighed inwardly.
However, Xiao Hua decided to play along for a bit.
