Chapter 453: An Immutable Ending
Other than the quest arranged for him to save Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru, there was another person that wanted them to die instead.
That was the defender of the Mount Shu Sect, Gudu Yuyun. Also known as Swordsaint Gudu!
That meant that the quest that these players had accepted was arranged by Swordsaint Gudu.
Logically speaking, as the most powerful NPC in the Divine Dominion Continent, he too should have the authority to issue quests.
When he thought of that, he looked at Li Xiaoyao standing next to him.
‘Er... What?!’
‘System, are you sh*tting on me right now?’
When he saw Li Xiaoyao, Jiang Feng was genuinely shocked.
It was not because Li Xiaoyao was handsome, but it was because Li Xiaoyao looked like him back in reality.
There were many people that looked alike in the world. However, there were not many NPCs in the game that looked like one another. However, Li Xiaoyao’s face within the game was so similar to him in reality, they practically looked like twins.
However, Li Xiaoyao possessed more sadness in his eyes.
When Li Xiaoyao looked at him, he was also stunned as he said, “Shifter Emperor, you have come to stop me too?”
Lin Yueru, who was quite tomboyish took a step forward and whipped her whip as she said domineeringly, “Shifter Emperor, I know you are very powerful, but if you are trying to stop us from entering the Shifter-Sealing Tower, then do not think that we will pull our punches when we fight you!”
Jiang Feng smiled and took out a bottle of wine, drank it, and then passed it to Li Xiaoyao and said, “Let’s get to know each other. I am the Shifter Emperor, Jiang Feng!”
Li Xiaoyao looked at Jiang Feng, surprised. He then shifted his attention to the bottle of wine in his hand and smiled, revealing a pair of dimples. “Thanks!”
Other than being surprised, Jiang Feng was quite happy to be able to see an NPC that looked exactly like him. It was like seeing another version of him.
At the same time, he was also very supportive of his “other self.”
Not to mention that if he were to encounter any danger, he would be there to guard him!
When he saw Li Xiaoyao take the bottle and downing the wine, Jiang Feng then greeted the thousands of people before the Shifter-Sealing Tower and said, “I would like to ask of your understanding. Please allow these two to enter!”
“That...”
The players did not expect that Jiang Feng would help Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru, and they all became hesitant.
As long as they could stop Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru, they would gain high-quality rewards. They did not want to give up just like that.
Red Boy, who was quite aggressive, pointed his spear at the players when he saw them being hesitant and said arrogantly, “Why are you hesitating? Even if our boss does not meddle in this, none of you can defeat Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru. Now that our boss is here, he wants to at least make it better for all of you. Why are you still hesitating? Or do you want me to open up a path?”
When the players heard Red Boy’s words, they then looked at Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.
Just as Red Boy had said, Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru were level 150 Divine Rank NPCs. It was quite difficult to judge if they could take them on anyway.
Not to mention that the players knew about Jiang Feng’s temper. Jiang Feng was showing them some respect by asking. Otherwise, he himself could have massacred all of them.
The players from the Shifter Faction were still quite united. Since Jiang Feng was their leader, they would not dare to say no to him. Hence, they immediately walked to the sideline.
“Sh*t! So what if you’re the Shifter Emperor! It wasn’t easy for us to chance upon a quest like this. I will not leave unless you give me a Divine Artifact!” A player from the Divine faction called out loudly.
“Right! The quest’s rewards are very good! Unless you compensate us, we will not leave!”
“If you compensate us, we will leave. If you don’t, then we will not!”
...
Jiang Feng frowned when he heard the words from the players from the Divine and Infernal factions.
“Damn it! You dare to show such disrespect to our boss? That means you are humiliating the Shifter Knights as well! Die!”
Red Boy did not hold back his temper and roared out angrily as he attacked the nine-hundred or so players who were still blocking the Shifter-Sealing Tower using his spear.
As he hacked them with his spear, a red light appeared and instantly killed the dozen of players in front of him.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
Ling Luo fired a few shots as she held her sniper rifle, and immediately killed all of the players that spoke just now.
The players from the Divine and Infernal Factions did not expect that the Shifter Knights would attack so suddenly and could cause so much damage. The attacks managed to terrify the remaining players and forced them to back down.
Li Xiaoyao smiled as he nodded to Jiang Feng, then walked into the Shifter-Sealing Tower together with Lin Yueru.
Very soon after Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru had entered the Shifter-Sealing Tower, they could hear sounds of fighting from within.
Whoosh!
Deicide appeared and transformed into a giant sword. It then carried Jiang Feng and flew to the top of the Shifter-Sealing Tower.
When he came to the top of the tower, he jumped down and then sat down with his legs crossed. In the next moment, the giant sword that Deicide transformed into changed into several phantom swords and appeared behind his back, and then returned to its original staff form.
The scene was so cool that many of his fans started crying out.
“Show off!”
Ling Luo rolled her eyes as she threw her prismatic ribbon into the air. She then jumped into it and began resting.
Red Boy jumped on top of a nearby statue and began resting.
...
“Shifter Emperor! You are sending them to their deaths!”
As soon as he sat on the Shifter-Sealing Tower, a voice entered into Jiang Feng’s ears.
Hm?
When he heard this voice, he looked toward the largest building in Mount Shu Sect.
“I do not know what you mean, Senior Master Gudu.”
“There would be injuries and death if they enter the Shifter-Sealing Tower. You are not helping them! You are sending them to their doom!”
“I don’t think so.”
“Do you really think that your appearance can change an immutable ending?”
“That’s right!”
“Haha! Just as expected of the Shifter Emperor! You are just as arrogant as ever! When you know who Bishop Baiyue is, you will then know that even with your participation, the ending can never be changed!”
“What do you mean?”
“My only advice for you is to not meddle in their affairs. Otherwise, you will be caught within the maelstrom as well!”
...
After Swordsaint Gudu had told him that, he would not speak no matter how Jiang Feng probed him.
“Damn it! That old man has caused me to be nervous! No, I should restore my power first, otherwise, I’m a sitting duck!”
Jiang Feng cursed in his mind and then opened the Monster Transmutation System.
He had evolved once in Tathagata’s microworld. That meant that he had two lottery draw chances left.
This time, he was going to try and get pills that could heal his injuries.
With that in mind, he took out the Ruler of Hakai. With that in his hand, he then switched to the lottery panel and a giant wheel appeared in front of him.
Looking at the lottery wheel in front of him, he switched the quantity to one* and began the lottery.
*T/L Note: In raw, the author erroneously put it as “double” when only one treasure box appeared later.
The indicator on the wheel began to quickly spin.
As he was concentrating on the wheel, several beams of light came from all around them and descended around Mount Shu.
