Chapter 1342: Divine World Version 2 Part 18
The main office atmosphere turned extrely tense and solemn.
None of the Lethal Corp mbers anticipated eting the mysterious and elusive big boss of the Vanguard Guild, Eclipse Nova, here.
"Boss," Kailey greeted Xu Feng’s alias and stood by his side. Despite her calm composure on the surface, she was secretly fangirling on the inside.
’Gaah, the Team Leader really didn’t know what she missed out on.’ The position was supposedly Blue Star, but because she wanted to take advantage of the second update as soon as possible, she relegated the task to her.
Who could have imagined this task would involve their big boss?
While Kailey was lost in her own thoughts in joy, the rest of the Lethal Corp reacted with a completely opposite emotion.
To break the awkward tension, soone from the Lethal Corp’s side signaled for PotionHoarder to begin.
Even though he had plopped to the ground from fear, PotionHoarder could only endure and slowly get up.
"Greetings, Senior." PotionHoarder cupped his fist and bowed in respect. He didn’t dare to address Eclipse Nova by his na.
"Senior?" Xu Feng suddenly chuckled. "When did you beco this polite? Did the Lethal Corp teach you that?"
’Crap, he still rembered the past grudge.’ PotionHoarder swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Their last interaction ended in a not-so-good light. In fact, there were tis when he even repeatedly taunted Eclipse Nova.
If he could go back in ti, PotionHoarder would definitely slap his past self.
"This junior naturally doesn’t dare to be impolite toward the senior." PotionHoarder kept a humble position and replied.
Xu Feng could only shake his head upon seeing this behavior.
Indeed, once a person’s status and identity had been elevated, things would start to change.
Even the previous enemy wouldn’t dare to be impolite unless their brain cell had gone to a negative value.
Of course, there were still exceptions. After all, nothing was guaranteed in life!
"Alright, I won’t make things difficult for you." Xu Feng gestured for them to take a seat.
"I’m sure you have already been inford. The Honorary Elder of our guild has made a deal with the heiress from Lethal Finance. Since that’s the case, we can be considered one family."
"Yes, Senior is absolutely right." PotionHoarder felt like a huge boulder had been lifted away from his back. Based on Xu Feng’s words, it ant that their relationship was at least nded.
This was already a satisfactory result. As long as their Lethal Corp could still remain in the Divine World and operate, his position would also be safe.
"Alright, you may all leave now." Xu Feng waved his hand lazily, almost as if he was dismissing a bunch of nobodies.
Needless to say, the mbers of Lethal Corp felt humiliated.
When had they ever suffered like this before?
It was always others cowering before them and never them on the receiving end.
Despite feeling resentful, none of them dared to express any anger. If the deal went sour because of their inability to control their emotions, then they would be blacklisted worldwide.
Soti later, when almost all of them were about to leave, Xu Feng suddenly called for PotionHoarder.
"You can stay, PotionHoarder."
"M-?" Almost as if the hell demon king had beckoned for him, PotionHoarder’s face turned ashen white.
Why was he called to stay behind?
He wanted to reject, but he realized all those who accompanied him had already run away.
Although he didn’t expect any loyalty from them to begin with, the truth still hurts.
"What does the Senior want from this Junior?" Without a choice, PotionHoarder turned around and asked.
"I’ve rembered you love to hoard valuable potions. Care to show your collection to ?" Xu Feng calmly asked.
Show my collection to you?
Aren’t you just trying to rob my precious potions?
Even a fool could tell what was going on here!
In the blink of an eye, PotionHoarder had to show a very willing expression on his face as he took out the majority of his collections.
’My potions. My precious baby!’ Tears wanted to seep through the corner of his eyes—no, it was already falling.
"You don’t need to cry tears of joy, PotionHoarder." Xu Feng casually comnted. "I know you want to donate these potions to increase our two guilds’ relationship, but this isn’t your job."
"Then does that an?" PotionHoarder ignored the sarcastic remark and thought he still had the chance to take his potion back from the last sentence.
Unfortunately, he would be daydreaming.
Soone like Xu Feng was never the type to give things back to strangers or enemies.
"It’s not proper etiquette, but I also cannot dampen your effort. So I shall reluctantly accept these potions."
Having said that, Xu Feng directly stored all the potions in his inventory. He didn’t even spend more ti checking what kind of potions they were.
Poor PotionHoarder couldn’t even react in ti before he witnessed his hard-earned collection being once again yoinked away by none other than Eclipse Nova. In the anti, Kailey had to turn around to avoid being spotted laughing at PotionHoarder’s plight.
’As expected of the big boss. A few words and he can empty out the other person’s stash clean.’ Kailey was impressed and decided to record this incident in her journal.
A few seconds later, PotionHoarder suppressed the urge to faint and waited patiently for Xu Feng’s next order.
"Alright, I’ve accepted your potion, so it would be impolite to not give you sothing in return. You can be the ssenger between our two guilds and are eligible to access the inner section of our training hall."
Like a carp that had leaped through the dragon gate, PotionHoarder was instantly revitalized from his lifeless look!
"Inner section of the training hall??!" His eyes widened in complete surprise.
"Mhmm," Xu Feng nodded and turned his attention to Kailey. "Bring him to the training hall and give him a brief explanation. You will gain 500 GMP for this task."
"Yes, boss!" Kailey happily accepted the order. Such an easy task for 500 GMP!
’The big boss is indeed the most generous!’ She thought to herself.
