Crocodile Breakerâs death shocked the spectating crowd and Sin Realmâs retreating members; none of them could believe what they had just seen.
âHeâs dead?!â
âThis is a trick, right?! The Heavy Sword actually died in a single move?!â
Players new to the Purple Thorns Kingdom might not be familiar with Crocodile Breaker, but those who resided in the kingdom knew his name and nickname quite well. He had become many playersâ nightmare.
Many of the kingdomâs expert players that had resisted Sin Realm had died by Crocodile Breakerâs hand, yet such a powerful expert had died instantly. No one would believe them if they retold this tale.
âThat player is amazing, Brother!â Cool Summer exclaimed as she watched Shi Feng loot the battlefield. âHe might even be stronger than you!â
âMhm! His swordsmanship is so fast!â Smiling Breeze nodded in agreement. Shi Fengâs performance had shocked him, as well. âIâve seen almost every top-ranked Swordsman in ćșe kingdom in artion, but none of ćșem are close to his levd^ ^ who is he?â
Not only was he a Tier 2 player, but he was also an Assassin, the class famed for its speed, but he hadnât been able to keep up with Shi Fengâs attack. He hadnât even caught the moment this Swordsman had executed the Skill. By the time he had realized what was happening, Shi Fengâs attack was over, and Crocodile Breaker was dead.
When he tried to put himself in Crocodile Breakerâs shoes, he doubted that heâd be able to activate Vanish, an almost instantaneous Lifesaving Skill, in time.
When he recalled his decision to send Shi Feng and his sister away while he protected them from behind, he found the idea laughable.
Crocodile Breakerâs death had undoubtedly dealt Sin Realmâs members quite the mental blow. As a result of their momentary pause, only a small number of the Guild players had actually escaped Glory Town. The NPC soldiers captured the rest of them. The players that had died lost a level and a piece of equipment as a result, in addition to resurrecting in the townâs prison to spend three days behind bars.
âFriends, Sin Realmâs people have left. If you intend to flee, you should do so now. I doubt it will be long before the Guild sends reinforcements. It will become far harder to leave Glory Town once they arrive,â Shi Feng addressed Smiling Breeze and Cool Summer once he finished collecting the items Sin Realmâs members had dropped.
Shi Fengâs warning snapped Smiling Breeze out of his daze, and he gratefully replied, âThank you. Iâm Smiling Breeze, and this is my little sister, Cool Summer. May I have your name,ä»iend?â
âYe Feng,â Shi Feng answered truthfully.
Although he had considered using Black Flame, it would cause a commotion if the public learned that Zero Wingâs Guild Leader had appeared in the Purple Thorns Kingdom. The kingdomâs various major powers would certainly pay more attention to him, and if that happened, it could affect his quest.
âYe Feng? Could you be Zero Wingâs Honorary Elder?â Smiling Breeze stared at Shi Feng in surprise.
Zero Wing had become considerably famous in Godâs Domain. Its success in repelling a veteran super-first-rate Guildâs offensive and joining the Secret Chamber of Commerce had earned the Guild some notoriety, increasing Zero Wingâs chances of becoming a super-first-rate Guild itself in the future.
With so much attention on Zero Wing, it was only natural for the public to grow familiar with the Guildâs peak experts, including Ye Feng. Thus far, Ye Feng had displayed great strength in multiple battles in Star-Moon Kingdom. Not only had he become well-known in his own kingdom, but he had become extremely famous among the Purple Thorns Kingdomsâ expert players. During their free time, expert players enjoyed discussing nearby kingdomsâ experts and comparing themselves to figure out who was stronger.
Cool Summer stared at Shi Feng in shock, as well. She felt as if she were dreaming.
âBrother, is this really happening?! We actually got to meet Zero Wingâs Honorary Elder, Ye Feng!â Cool Summer whispered to Smiling Breeze, her eyes glowing with excitement.
Even existences like Crocodile Breaker were out of reach for independent players like them, not to mention an Honorary Elder from a Guild with the potential to become a super-first-rate Guild. A single sentence from Ye Feng was enough to cause most second-rate Guilds to shudder with fear.
When nearby players overheard Shi Fengâs introduction, they couldnât help but gape at the Swordsman.
They finally understood why Shi Feng had been so relaxed during the earlier exchange with Sin Realmâs members and shrugged off Crocodile Breakerâs mighty aura.
âThatâs right,â Shi Feng replied, at a loss for words after seeing the two siblingsâ surprise.
Both Smiling Breeze and Cool Summer had been beyond his reach in the past. Smiling Breeze had been one of the top-ten Assassin experts in the Black Dragon Empire during his peak, and if not for his status as an independent player, he wouldâve likely reached Tier 5.
As for Cool Summer, she had only been a step away from becoming a Grandmaster Alchemist. Second-rate Guilds hadnât had a prayer of encountering her, and even first-rate Guilds had treated her like a VIP, doing almost anything to recruit her.
âMay I know what plans you two have after this?â Shi Feng asked.
âRemaining in the Purple Thorns Kingdom is no longer possible now that we have a tracking mark on us. Weâll probably head over to the Black Dragon Empire and check out the situation there,â Smiling Breeze replied, sighing.
âThe Black Dragon Empire? That is certainly a good place to develop,â Shi Feng said after giving the matter some thought. He then sent the two players friend requests and said, âZero Wing has a Branch Guild in the Black Dragon Empire as well. If you encounter any trouble or run into Sin Realmâs people, you can contact me. If you need to buy or sell anything, you can also do so at the Candlelight Trading Firm. Iâll make sure you both enjoy the membership benefits.â
Although Shi Feng had considered inviting Smiling Breeze and Cool Summer to join Zero Wing, he knew that theyâd never accept. Many superpowers had tried to recruit them in his previous life, as well, even offering incredibly lax conditions that barely restricted their freedom. In the end, however, the siblings had rejected every offer.
This proved to him that these two werenât interested in joining any Guild. So, he shouldnât try to force the situation. Befriending them would be a wiser choice. If these two ever changed their minds, theyâd at least consider joining Zero Wing.
âThank you!â Smiling Breeze and Cool Summer expressed their gratitude. Continuing, Smiling Breeze said, âWe really donât know what to say. If you need our help with anything in the future, please feel free to ask! Weâll help you to the best of our abilities!â
Ordinary players might not understand the benefits of Zero Wingâs protection and the Candlelight Trading Firmâs membership, but they did. Countless independent players dreamed of such an advantage.
After conversing with Shi Feng for a little while longer, Smiling Breeze and Cool Summer departed from Glory Town. Meanwhile, the players on the main street were in an uproar over Shi Fengâs battle with Sin Realmâs members. Some players had even uploaded the battle videos they had recorded to the Purple Thorns Kingdomâs official forums.
The instant the battle videos were available, they become the most popular topic of conversation throughout the kingdom.
Many of the kingdomâs players had negative opinions of Sin Realm due to its tyrannical behavior, but since the Guild was so powerful, they were forced to endure its control.
Now that Sin Realm had suffered a massive defeat in Glory Town, with one of its seven great experts falling in battle, it was only natural that the populaceâs general mood was quite jubilant.
For a time, the kingdomâs population grew curious about Shi Fengâs identity, and many players found themselves admiring the Swordsman. As news of the battle spread, everyone soon discovered that Shi Feng was actually Zero Wingâs Ye Feng. Due to this revelation, the entire kingdom was in an uproar, with many players expressing their desire to join Zero Wing, hoping that the Guild would establish a Branch Guild in the Purple Thorns Kingdom.

The overwhelming reaction even surprised Shi Feng.
At this point, over 200,000 players, a truly frightening number, had voiced their desire to take down Sin Realm.
Just how much of a tyrant is Sin Realm in the Purple Thorns Kingdom? Shi Feng was astonished as he read the forum post containing a petition to deal with the offending Guild.
The average large Guild didnât even have 100,000 members; only second-rate and above Guilds could amass such a collection.
It didnât take long for news of the matter to reach the Purple Thorns Kingdomâs various major powers, especially the kingdomâs tyrant, Sin Realm.
