Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1279: Global Manhunt Part 3

When Carmen heard the demands of the hostile guilds, her face turned livid.

She clenched her fist and clicked her tongue.

”These people are courting death!”

”Courting death? No, I think they’re being generous.”

Instantly, Carmen’s eyes widened in disbelief. She extended her hand and touched Xu Feng’s forehead.

”It’s not hot...” She murmured, clearly having mistaken him for a sick person.

If he wasn’t sick, then what was with his attitude?

How could he possibly claim the hostile guilds were being generous!

This was blatant extortion from the hostile guilds! Even an idiot could tell their demands were a hoax.

They definitely wouldn’t take just 75% of the drop loot!

In fact, Carmen was positive that they would take advantage of this global manhunt to besiege their Haven Wind Town.

After all, the location of their position was precisely close to their town.

The system truly cornered them at a dead end by prohibiting teleportation from working for them.

”Guild Leader, please tell me you’re joking. We’re not really going to concede to them, right?” Carmen smiled bitterly. The forwarded messages actually had screenshots of them having Tier 2 players.

In other words, her initial thought of massacring these players was squashed with the appearance of these Tier 2 players.

Although these Tier 2 players barely had any hidden class or the hidden class itself was pretty mediocre, their attributes weren’t weak either.

”Concede to them?” Amused, Xu Feng gently patted Carmen’s head.

”These Tier 2 players are rushers, meaning their foundation can be considered trash. What I mean by generous is that we’re going to be the ones to take 80% of their revenue and receive a 95% discount in their towns.”

Startled, her body jolted in disbelief.

No wonder Xu Feng called the hostile guilds generous!

In front of Xu Feng’s extortion, their demands were truly a joke. However, what really made her body tremble was his intimate act of patting her head.

’The Guild Leader has never made any physical contact with me in the past.’ She felt giddy just thinking about how he patted her head gently.

While Carmen felt her heart melting from this action, Xu Feng remained unaware and was busy responding to the guilds who wished to offer their assistance.

Too many people sent their offerings...

’They must want me to owe them a favor.’ He thought to himself. The majority of them didn’t request anything in return.

However, anyone in this position would naturally know that couldn’t be any more false.

Unless one wishes to be known as an ungrateful white wolf, such gratitude needs to be repaid.

’Hmm, this username is...’ Suddenly, Xu Feng’s fingers paused when he saw a new message sent by someone unaffiliated with him.

Usually, he would simply ignore them, but the username in particular caught his attention.

Peaceful Joy

This username could be directly translated to Jingyi, and Xu Feng only ever encountered one Jingyi in the past: Zhang Jingyi.

His last encounter with her was back at the bar when he wanted to search for some starting funds to establish a foothold for the Vanguard Guild. Ever since then, he had never interacted with or met her again.

Who could have thought she actually promoted to Tier 2 as well?

As for how he knew she was indeed Zhang Jingyi, the message itself was evident enough.

Peaceful Joy: Evening, Vanguard Guild Leader. I’m Zhang Jingyi, an acquaintance of your Honorary Elder Cool Wind, aka Xu Feng. To verify my identity, you can confirm with Xu Feng that we first met at the Azure District, where he helped me take cover from my bodyguards.

There was no need for Xu Feng to ask himself to verify the news.

After all, he was Cool Wind as well, and the incident at the Azure District was something only he and Zhang Jingyi would know.

He highly doubted Zhang Jingyi would spread the words to others either.

Without hesitation, Xu Feng accepted her friend request and asked what she wanted.

Lin Feng: I’ve confirmed with the Honorary Elder. Does Miss Jingyi have something to say to me?

Peaceful Joy: Of course, I’ve heard about the Global Manhunt and know about your current predicament. Initially, I planned to message Xu Feng directly, but he’s offline. I can only look for you and see if you’re willing to do a trade.

Lin Feng: What trade?

Peaceful Joy: I’ve reached Tier 2, and my base class is swordsman. To enhance my sword arts, I received information about a secret realm.

’Another one?’ Dumbfounded, Xu Feng didn’t even need her to complete the whole message to learn about her motive.

Without a doubt, she definitely wanted to invite his Cool Wind alias to join the secret realm with her.

Just when he wanted to reject her frankly, Zhang Jingyi sent another message—something that made it impossible to reject.

Peaceful Joy: I have received an item called Resurrection Shard. As long as it was charged enough, it could potentially resurrect something that the System deemed dead or deleted. I have no use for it, but it should hold some significance for a healer class, right?

Xu Feng’s body staggered, his breathing turning difficult upon learning that Zhang Jingyi possessed the item Resurrection Shard.

His reaction instantly caught Carmen by surprise.

”What’s wrong, Guild Leader?” Carmen held his arms and asked anxiously. She had never seen him lose his composure in such a manner before.

Xu Feng seemed to be in a deep trance, incapable of hearing any other sound.

His mind was fully occupied by the mere possibility that he could resurrect Burpe.

’The potential chance of resurrecting is already good enough.’ Xu Feng opened his status screen and stared deeply at the Pet Section.

While the Mini Earthrender was practicing and growing in the Pet Space with all the resources, there was Burpe, who was listed as deceased.

Its name hadn’t been erased in the system, most likely because of the existence of the Resurrection Shard in Zhang Jingyi’s possession.

If Zhang Jingyi didn’t receive the Resurrection Shard, then Xu Feng had a fearful moment that the name Burpe would be erased and deleted from his status screen.
