Chapter 991 Cost of Contempt

An acquaintance?

When everyone in the team saw Death Wind greet Shi Feng, their gazes softened slightly. Even so, they remained very cautious with him.

Currently, Shi Feng wore his Black Cloak, so they could not see his information. However, the fact that he rode a Mount showed that he was extraordinarily strong. Otherwise, he wouldnt have reached Level 40 so quickly.

They wouldnt mind a weak acquaintance. However, Shi Fengs strength was precisely the reason that they remained wary.

Autumn, you guys know him? a robust man asked Autumn Goose, who stood beside him.

This robust man weathered appearance spoke of years of lifes vicissitudes. A suit of silvery-gray knights armor protected his body, and he carried a tower shield that was nearly as tall as he was. At his waist, he carried a luxurious golden knights sword. Furthermore, he had already reached Level 40.

Mhm. Hes one of Zero Wings Elders. He is incredibly strong. It was thanks to him that we had completed our previous quest. Autumn Goose nodded to the robust mans question. She did not try to hide anything as the man beside her was none other than the commander of the Wind Gods Spear, Fallen Wind. If we can convince Ye Feng to help us, well have a much higher chance of completing this quest.

Hearing Autumn Gooses words, Fallen Wind could not help but reexamine Shi Feng.

Although Autumn Goose seemed approachable on the surface, she was arrogant to the bone. In her eyes, very few people were worth Autumn Gooses recognition.

Autumn, arent you giving him a bit too much credit? Isnt he just some expert a large Guild nurtured? How strong could he possibly be? If we take him with us, hell probably only hold us back, a frosty youth in brown leather armor said dismissively.

Aside from Wind Gods Spears brilliant battle records in the multiple confrontations they have had with several large Guilds, their several new experts were already many times stronger than first-rate Guilds pampered experts. As for the members here today, they were the creme de la creme of the Wind Gods Spear.

Every Wind Gods Spear member here was a top-class expert with a list of illustrious achievements. How could someone like Shi Feng possibly compare to them?

To further his point, the youth had never seen Shi Fengs name on Gods Domains Experts List.

Disregarding the cold youths words, Autumn Goose looked directly at Fallen Wind and said, Commander, I believe that Big Brother Death Wind will also support my point.

At Autumn Gooses strong recommendation of Shi Feng, Thoughtful Rains beautiful eyes sparkled with anticipation. Although she did not understand why, whenever she was with Shi Feng, she felt indescribably safe. She didnt even feel like this when she traveled with someone as powerful as Fallen Wind.

This is interesting. Fallen Wind could not help but watch the cloaked Shi Feng, curiosity flashing in his eyes.

Naturally, there was no need to mention Shi Fengs level. However, the Swordsmans combat standards were unknown. Generally, one could judge a persons strength based on the aura they radiated. The stronger a person was, the stronger their aura was. Such a phenomenon was due to the confidence they gained from experiencing countless battles.

Yet...

Even after observing Shi Feng for a long moment, Fallen Wind could not sense any aura that hinted at Shi Fengs strength.

As to whether or not Shi Feng concealed his aura, this was unlikely. After all, even experts would find it extremely difficult to conceal their aura completely unless their mental fortitude had reached a certain level. However, experts capable of doing so were generally in their thirties or forties. Some only reached this refinement in their fifties. To put it simply, it was impossible for a youth to have enough control to hide their aura.

However, both Autumn Goose and Death Wind seemed to admire Shi Feng.

This was strange indeed.

Autumn, lets pass on asking him this time. If the opportunity presents itself, we can invite him in the future. Weve already determined our teams roster. Sudden adjustments to the team will increase our chances of failure, Fallen Wind said after giving it some thought. We cannot afford to fail this quest. If we complete this quest, the Wind Gods Spears strength will climb to a new level. The Wind Gods Spear wont have to shuffle around in the Dark Night Empires shadows anymore. Instead, the empires large Guilds will have to hide like rats.

I understand, Autumn Goose dejectedly replied.

She understood Fallen Winds sentiment. They had invested a lot of effort into this quest. Now that they had reached the final phase and were prepared, they would be taking unnecessary risks if they replaced one of the team members.

Our Commander knows best. If we allow a half-assed expert into the team, Ill constantly have to worry about him dragging me to the grave, the cold youth said, nodding.

When Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo heard Fallen Wind reject Autumn Gooses proposal and Ordinary Blades, the cold youth, ridicule, they were annoyed.

However, as they were members of Zero Wing, they did not find it appropriate to intervene in Wind Gods Spears internal matters.

Yet, Ordinary Blades disrespect of Shi Feng made the somewhat angry.

Commander Fallen, I apologize, but Blue and I wont be participating in this operation. After all, this is the Wind Gods Spears affair. It wouldnt be proper for us to take part, Thoughtful Rain announced.

They had simply tagged along for this quest due to Fallen Winds invitation and their friendship with Autumn Goose and the others.

Now that Zero Wings Elder had been belittled, how could they, members of Zero Wing, remain on the team?

Ordinary, apologize to Miss Rain and Miss Blue! Fallen Wind growled as he glared at the frosty youth. How could he not understand the meaning behind Thoughtful Rains words?

The sudden development stupefied Ordinary Blade.

He was simply trying to make himself look good before Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo. How had things ended up this way?

What was going on here?

Miss Rain and Miss Blue are members of Zero Wing! Fallen Wind softly reminded the boy.

This was the first time Ordinary Blade had met Thoughtful Rain and Blue Bamboo. In addition, as the two women were participating in the quest as individuals, they had not worn their Guild Emblems. Hence, Ordinary Blade had not realized that the duo was from Zero Wing.

Miss Rain, I misspoke. Please, forgive me, Ordinary Blade quickly apologized after realizing his blunder. He very much felt like digging a hole and jumping in.

Seeing Ordinary Blades distress, Autumn Goose, who was familiar with the youth, could not help but giggle.

In the Wind Gods Spear, Ordinary Blade was famous for his indifference. However, when the youth had met Thoughtful Rain for the first time, his eyes had nearly fallen from their sockets. It was obvious that the youth was interested in Thoughtful Rain. Unfortunately, his attempt to impress her had backfired magnificently.

This time, even their commander couldnt save him.

She and Thoughtful Rain were as close as sisters. She was very familiar with Thoughtful Rains personality.

When Thoughtful Rain made a decision, even a force of nature wouldnt change her mind...

She remembered Thoughtful Rains decision to join Zero Wing. No matter how much she had tried to dissuade the girl, hadnt Thoughtful Rain still joined the Guild?
