Just ten minutes later.
The three of them, who had been laughing and joking earlier, returned to the Special Operations Department with solemn expressions.
"After so much time has passed, why was there still a team camping at the West Gate..."
Zhou Yue frowned, entirely unable to figure it out.
After fighting their way out of the dormitories, they had encountered an ambush from a team at the Central Control Pavilion.
Fortunately, Zhou Yue's combat experience was seasoned enough. He had used a detection arrow to discover the enemy's intentions in advance and decisively chose to retreat.
Zhong Yi's choice was to detour from the dormitories to the West District Gate, use a secret rune card to open it, and bypass the Central Control Pavilion team before making their next move.
Unexpectedly, the moment they opened the West District Gate, they were ambushed by a fully equipped, full-sized squad camping behind it.
"Strange, how strange... There were no footsteps from Buoyancy or Centrifugal, so how could they have taken up positions in such a place in advance?"
Zhong Yi was equally perplexed.
They weren't looting supplies in the core area, nor were they a knife-running team hiding in the rat paths. Why would they ambush in such an open location?
It was truly too abnormal.
It was almost as if they had set up the ambush ahead of time!
"Boohoo, my fat four-million-value backpack! Ah!!"
Zhou Qiaoling cried in utter heartbreak.
"Wait a minute! Old Zhong! I was killed by the exact same person in two consecutive matches!"
When Zhou Yue checked his battle record, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.
For two matches in a row, the person who killed him was named [Destroyer of Lingxiao].
This nickname, combined with the act of camping in advance for two consecutive matches...
Zhong Yi immediately frowned. "Are they coming right at us?"
Seeing this nickname, the live chat in Zhong Yi's stream instantly exploded.
[Destroyer of Lingxiao? What arrogance!]
[I know this guy. He's always trying to pick fights with True Disciple Zhong on the forums... Just a clown!]
[I think he's from the Green Mountain Sect, right? He only knows how to be jealous of the Lingxiao Sect's providence.]
[Holy crap, this guy is streaming too! It looks like he's intentionally sniping Old Zhong!]
[A bunch of people from the Green Mountain Sect are streaming... A whole group of them are just waiting in the party lobby without starting the game. It's not hard to guess what they're waiting for.]
[They're stream snipers!]
...
Seeing the reminders from the chat, Zhong Yi half-believingly opened the live streaming section for "Operation Xianyuan Continent".
Sure enough, the popularity of several Green Mountain Sect streams had already reached the second tier.
The titles of these streams were uniformly named: [Exclusively Beating the Lingxiao Sect].
Just as the chat had said, several streams were on the party screen. Even though they were fully geared up, they still hadn't entered the matchmaking queue.
Zhong Yi dubiously searched for a few of their nicknames and was shocked to find that these people had all [Quit Mid-match] in their last two games.
Obviously, it was exactly as the chat had deduced.
These people had formed a team specifically to stream snipe them!
Even someone as mild-mannered as Zhong Yi was now filled with rage. "Damn it! Old Zhou, we're being sniped!!"
After hearing Zhong Yi's explanation, Zhou Yue immediately became incredibly indignant. "Do these bastards from the Green Mountain Sect have any shame left?"
There had always been constant minor frictions between the Green Mountain Sect and the Lingxiao Sect.
Ever since the Demon Slaying Conference not long ago, when Lu Ze's report caused the Green Mountain Sect to lose an extremely talented true disciple, the grudge between them had only grown deeper.
"I just don't understand... They were the ones who cheated, and it was their elder who made the move. Why are they pinning the blame on our Lingxiao Sect?"
Zhong Yi was furious.
"There's no need to empathize with some people... We just need to give them a good beating, and that's enough!"
Zhou Yue sneered.
"Old Zhong! Let's go again! This time, however many of them come, that's how many will die... Uh, I'm out of spirit stones."
Zhou Yue's boundless heroism was cut short by a lack of funds.
At this moment, the chat in Zhong Yi's stream was going crazy.
[Are they the only ones who can maliciously team up? Come on! Call True Disciple Li and Old Demon Lu!]
[Increase our numbers! Let's clash with them!]
[Old Demon Lu is also from the Lingxiao Sect, right? Call him over to deal with this!]
[The other side is going too far, they are even showing off their battle records all over the forums...]
[The most outrageous part is that they are even selling Zhong's dog tag!]
[Too shameless!]
[We have to vent this frustration!!]
...
Zhong Yi took a look at the forums, where several posts showing off "flawlessly wiping out the Lingxiao Sect's True Disciple team" had appeared one after another.
That Green Mountain Sect disciple named [Destroyer of Lingxiao] was actually publicly selling Zhong Yi's dog tag!
In "Operation Xianyuan Continent", every player entering a match would have an identity token.
Whenever they died, the token would automatically record the information of the exact year, month, day, and time its owner was killed, and by whom.
Players jokingly referred to these personal tokens as dog tags.
Selling a dog tag was undoubtedly a highly insulting act.
"If this can be tolerated, what cannot be!"
Zhou Yue was enraged.
"I'm going to the Green Mountain Sect right now to drag that kid out and teach him some manners!"
"Old Zhou, calm down."
Zhong Yi grabbed Zhou Yue, who was about to log off.
"The illusion realm is the illusion realm. If we escalate this to the sect, we'll actually lose face... Matters of the illusion realm should be settled within the illusion realm."
"How about... I go call Senior Sister Li to take my place?"
Zhou Qiaoling suggested.
"No! You and Old Zhou, neither of you can be missing!"
Zhou Yue shook his head resolutely.
"The face we lost ourselves, we must win back ourselves!"
"But the enemy is in the dark while we are in the open. We might be facing more than one team..."
Zhou Qiaoling sighed mournfully.
Hearing this, Zhou Yue instantly fell silent.
Recalling the scenes of being ambushed in the previous two matches, it wasn't hard to guess that someone from the other side was lurking in Zhong Yi's stream to feed them information.
Moreover, it was very likely more than just one team.
In the previous match, the Green Mountain Sect had likely set up ambushes at both the Central Control Pavilion and the West District Gate simultaneously, so no matter which way they went, they would be shot in the back!
"How about this, Old Zhong, you turn off your stream, and we have some real fun with them?"
Zhou Yue looked at Zhong Yi beside him, only to see the latter suddenly start laughing.
"Heh, hehe."
Zhong Yi let out a cold laugh that Zhou Yue had never heard before, a trace of disdain rippling in his eyes.
"If I turn off the stream, we won't be able to run into them..."
"What do you mean?"
Zhou Yue couldn't help but shiver.
He had never seen Zhong Yi reveal such an expression.
"I originally didn't want to use this tactic..."
Zhong Yi's character suddenly switched to a rare surprise-attack character—
[Uluru].
"Since they are unjust, they can't blame me for being ruthless."

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
