You really outdid yourself, Qin Xiaoyou!

Qin Feng truly hadn't expected Qin Xiaoyou to enter the Land Abandoned by the Gods this early.

And she'd even come to Shell Town and joined Wang Meng's party!

Qin Feng understood Qin Xiaoyou’s intentions almost instantly.

Trying to find Dark Shadow and get close to him?

Why else would she come to Shell Town?

Still, she figured out I have a connection to Lin Liyu. She's got a little cleverness...

Qin Feng sneered.

In his previous life, he'd spent every day with Qin Xiaoyou, so naturally, he knew what his younger sister was thinking.

During the early days of the Godforsaken Game, before Qin Feng had risen to prominence, Qin Xiaoyou had constantly wanted to join parties led by other powerful players, but Qin Feng had stopped her every time.

Fortunately, Qin Feng had quickly risen in the Godforsaken Game.

After that, Qin Xiaoyou had obediently followed Qin Feng...

Looks like the timeline has changed a little in this life.

Qin Feng was slightly surprised, but he quickly settled his emotions.

Since Qin Xiaoyou was in Wang Meng's party, there was no need to sell them the Priest equipment.

Even if it was a coincidence, Qin Feng would never let Qin Xiaoyou benefit from him in any way.

Much less show any sign that he knew her.

After all... far too many people were watching the name "Dark Shadow" right now!

I haven't extracted any abilities into reality yet.

If people discover my real identity, I'll face a lot of trouble-potentially even fatal trouble...

But once I reach level 10, I can at least extract my stealth skill. That'll give me some ability to protect myself in reality.

Even a single handgun would be enough to take Qin Feng's life.

Exposing himself now would be courting death.

But Qin Feng wasn't far from level 10. Soon, he would be able to extract supernatural abilities and bring them into reality!

Over ten minutes later.

Qin Feng returned to Shell Town.

By the time he finished exploring the Temple of Faith, it was already afternoon in Great Xia.

In River-Sea City alone, hundreds of starting towns had been activated.

In other words, hundreds of thousands of people had entered the Godforsaken Game.

But...

Qin Feng had never imagined there would be this many people in Shell Town.

As far as he could see, there was a dense sea of people!

And when Qin Feng appeared in his striking Ghostfire Leather Armor, he drew the attention of everyone in town!

"Dark Shadow! Dark Shadow! Can we add each other as friends, big brother?"

"You're Dark Shadow? I'm the chairman of River-Sea City's Runding Group. I'd like to invite you to join our group..."

"Dark Shadow, boss, need another lackey? I can cheer you on!"

"Boss, this is my little sister. She's a huge fan of yours. Nothing else to it-she just wants to meet you..."

With a single Instant Shadow Slash, Qin Feng flashed thirty meters away and entered a stealth state that no one could detect...

First, he shook off the people gathering around him.

Then he arranged to meet Lin Liyu somewhere more secluded and headed over.

Wang Meng, Lin Liyu, and the others in their party were waiting for Qin Feng behind a ruined house.

Qin Xiaoyou stood behind them.

The girl was eager and nervous, squeezing her right hand with her left one moment, then her left with her right the next, constantly looking around...

Qin Feng appeared in front of Lin Liyu, his gaze sweeping over Qin Xiaoyou as though she were a complete stranger.

He didn't say anything.

He simply pulled a pile of items from his inventory.

He first added Wang Meng as a friend, then sent him a private message: "This is Gold Tier Warrior equipment. Good stats. The price is 300 days of lifespan, but I'll sell it to you for 280."

"This is a Gold-Tier Skill for Archers. It's not the most useful skill. The price is 550 days of lifespan, but I'll sell it to you for 520."

"This is..."

Qin Feng handed all the equipment he'd set aside earlier to Wang Meng, pricing each piece individually.

The prices were all very reasonable.

"Big brother, I've only got 925 days of lifespan on me right now."

Wang Meng gave a wry smile. "I can't afford all this..."

"No problem. Pay me later."

Qin Feng spoke casually.

Everything came to a total of 2,200 days of lifespan. With the authorities' financial resources, they would be able to pay it off quickly.

Wang Meng thought it over, then nodded. "All right. Thanks for trusting me, big brother."

He first transferred 900 days of lifespan to Qin Feng, then collected the equipment and skill books, thanking him repeatedly...

With this equipment and these skills, their party would be able to farm monsters even faster. They could even figure out a way to take on Silver Tier bosses!

"Holy shit, Dark Shadow is amazing! I actually get to use gold equipment this early?"

"This Gold-Tier Skill is incredible! My damage output just more than tripled!"

"And he's even letting us buy on credit. He trusts us! I'm gonna cry..."

Wang Meng and the others were all stunned and awed.

But soon, they noticed a problem.

"Huh? Why isn't there anything for Priests?"

Those words left Qin Xiaoyou, who had been waiting on the sidelines for her share, stunned.

Nothing for Priests?

Qin Feng didn't react at all.

He silently entered stealth.

His figure vanished before their eyes!

In truth, it wasn't that Qin Feng had nothing for Priests.

There was still a Gold Tier Priest's Scepter in his inventory, and even a Gold-Tier Skill book for Priests.

But how could Qin Feng possibly let Qin Xiaoyou benefit from such precious items?

Not only would Qin Feng refuse to give her anything.

He also planned to find another Priest and force them into Wang Meng's party, making them kick Qin Xiaoyou out.

After all, Qin Feng intended to keep using the authorities as a channel to sell large quantities of equipment and skill books he couldn't use, saving himself time.

If Qin Xiaoyou kept hanging around in this party, sooner or later she would interfere with his cooperation with the authorities.

Just then, however, Qin Feng received a system notification.

--

[Player "Xiaoyou Ya" has sent you a friend request!]

[Verification message: Hello, boss! I'm the Priest in Wang Meng's party~]

--

Qin Feng frowned.

So polite to strangers.

But with me, she was always impatient...

You really outdid yourself, Qin Xiaoyou.

Qin Feng ignored her completely.

He neither accepted nor declined.

There were simply too many players on Qin Feng’s friend request list!

He could treat Qin Xiaoyou like any other stranger and just ignore her!

Picking her out of all those player names just to reject her request? Who did she think she was?

By then, Qin Feng had reached the Town Square.

He was preparing to teleport to Firefly Town.

Song Fei's starting town was Firefly Town.

The guy had been holding a concert in the neighboring city yesterday, but after it ended, he'd come to River-Sea City and spent the night having fun with two girls...

When the Godforsaken Game descended, Song Fei had been assigned directly to Firefly Town, a starting town in the "River-Sea City region."

Now that town teleportation is available, how could I not kill you a few times first, Song Fei?

Qin Feng gave a cold smile.

Although Qin Xiaoyou had given him the Soul-Wandering Water to drink in his previous life, Song Fei had been the true culprit.

Qin Xiaoyou's stupidity was one thing.

Song Fei was the one Qin Feng truly had to kill!

And to finish him off in reality...

He first had to kill him in the game until he was terrified enough to log out!

Otherwise, as long as Song Fei stayed online, he would be invulnerable in reality. If he also cowered in a safe zone in the game, Qin Feng wouldn't be able to kill him, no matter how powerful he became.
