Lu Ming left Moonfall Town, unsure of what to do next.
His original plan was to deal with Ye Chen and then tackle the Scarlet Zone dungeon.
However, with Ye Chen now surrounded by too many level 30 bodyguards, Lu Ming's plan was disrupted, leaving him uninterested in dungeons for the mont.
The only way to break this stalemate was to find Lin Youwei!
But...
"Moonfall Town includes over fifty thousand players below level 10 from the entire Linhai City. Finding soone here is like finding a needle in a haystack..."
Just as Lu Ming was worrying about where to find Lin Youwei, he noticed a large crowd of players gathered around so ruins ahead, seemingly involved in sothing.
As Lu Ming passed by, he overheard the crowd discussing:
"This young girl looks so frail, how did she get into this ss?"
"They say she owes soone money, but it's unclear. Such a delicate girl falling into the hands of unreasonable creditors is bound for trouble!"
A young girl?
Frail?
Delicate?
"Could it be Lin Youwei?"
Lu Ming muttered to himself.
He squeezed through the crowd for a look.
Sure enough, it was Lin Youwei!
Lin Youwei was on the ground, surrounded by several burly, fierce-looking n!
She looked completely different from the image Lu Ming had of her last night.
The first ti he saw Lin Youwei, she was clinging tightly to her brother's hand. Even when being chased, as long as her brother was by her side, she felt safe.
Back then, she wore a Black Iron Equipnt frost robe, not luxurious, but not ordinary either.
Now, she was clad in cheap, low-level whiteboard gear, simple and clean, but it tugged at the heartstrings.
She exuded a pure aura, her tousled hair clinging to her fair face, pure yet alluring.
Without her brother's protection, her eyes were filled with helplessness and fear.
It was this aura and her pitiful face that made many bystanders sympathize with her.
"What kind of n bully a young girl?"
"Yeah! Aren't they ashad?"
At this mont, one of the burly n, at least 250 pounds, waved his fist and shouted at the crowd, "Paying debts is a matter of course! If any of you have a problem, why don't you pay the money her brother owes us?"
With that, the crowd fell silent.
Their so-called justice was clearly based on not harming their own interests.
Seeing the crowd quiet down, the burly man leered at Lin Youwei, saying lecherously, "If you really can't pay, you can use your body to repay the debt."
"How about a thousand per ti?"
Lin Youwei was so frightened she hugged her legs and curled up, her frail body trembling slightly.
Just as the burly man was about to reach out to her, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Youwei!
"How much does she owe you?"
Seeing Lu Ming suddenly appear, the burly man lost interest and said impatiently, "Her brother owes us twenty thousand; she's paid fifteen thousand, so there's five thousand left!"
Lu Ming thought for a mont.
The three pieces of equipnt and the F-grade skill scroll he put in the trading house had all sold, and he had over 5600 in his account.
So, he directly transferred five thousand to the burly man on the spot.
The four burly n present, though appearing large and intimidating, were actually just a few level 8-9 small fries.
If Lu Ming activated the Undead Warrior, he could send them to et their ancestors in an instant.
But with so many onlookers around, it wasn't worth becoming a target for a few thousand bucks.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "p??wread".
Having received the money, the burly man had nothing more to say and made way, allowing Lu Ming to take Lin Youwei away.
Seeing there was no more excitent to watch, the crowd dispersed.
However, the burly n stared intently at the backs of Lu Ming and Lin Youwei, eyes filled with resentnt and desire.
"Does that guy have a lot of money?"
"Why don't we follow them, take him for a bit more, and find a secluded place to have our way with that girl?"
"Heh, sounds good to !"
As they spoke, with lecherous smiles, they prepared to follow Lu Ming.
At this mont, a voice suddenly ca from behind: "You dare touch soone from Tianxuan?"
The burly n turned towards the voice, seeing a cold black-clad assassin standing behind them.
Hearing the ntion of "Tianxuan" from the assassin's mouth and seeing the ID [Tianxuan·Shadow] above the assassin's head, the burly n were imdiately terrified.
"The... the eighth-ranked Tianxuan of the Great Xia team?"
Instantly, they were scared out of their wits, kneeling and begging for rcy from Tianxuan·Shadow: "Brother, we didn't know those two were from Tianxuan! Please forgive us this ti! We won't dare again!!!"
"Brother, I'll return the money that guy and the girl gave
to you!"
The leading burly man quickly got up and transferred twenty thousand to Tianxuan·Shadow.
Taking the money, a cold glint flashed in Tianxuan·Shadow's eyes: "I'll let it go this ti, but be careful in your next life."
The burly n thanked him profusely.
But the next second, they seed to realize sothing.
"Wha... what? Next life?"
As soon as the words fell.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
A barrage of arrows rained down, engulfing the burly n.
A series of over 500 damage numbers popped up, instantly killing them!
The next second, several level 20 archer players with the [Tianxuan] ID silently retreated from the nearby ruins...
anwhile, on the other side.
Lin Youwei, being led by the wrist, kept her head down.
When she looked up and saw that the person who helped her was the sa one who saved her last night, a hint of surprise flashed in her clear eyes.
At this mont, Lu Ming let go of her hand and turned to look at Lin Youwei.
He finally understood that Lin Youwei had beco so plain because she had sold her valuable equipnt to pay off her brother's debt.
Lin Youwei knew she owed Lu Ming too much but was unable to repay him at the mont.
She nodded slightly, avoiding eye contact with Lu Ming, and said softly, "Thank you. I'll definitely repay the money once I save enough..."
Looking at the petite Lin Youwei, who seed like she could be blown away by a gust of wind, Lu Ming asked, "Do you want to avenge your brother?"
Lin Youwei's eyes were dim, and she lowered her head, "I'm too useless; I can't avenge him..."
Lu Ming said, "I can help you get revenge."
"But I'll need your cooperation."
Lin Youwei had witnessed Lu Ming's impressive strength last night when he easily took down three level 10 assassins while being only level 6. She knew he was formidable.
Since Lu Ming had refused her request for revenge last night, Lin Youwei thought he wouldn't help her again.
Hearing his words now, she looked up sharply, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
A glimr of hope appeared in her otherwise bleak heart.
"Really? How can I help you?"
