Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

Feng Tianyou was unwilling, but the Qingfeng team was powerful and he knew he couldn't win on his own. He decided to prioritize getting the reward and joined forces with the six other people he had temporarily assembled to fight the Qingfeng team.

The Qingfeng Squad truly lives up to its reputation as a veteran Orange-level adventurer team in Qingfeng County. Their individual strength and teamwork are both impeccable. The six members each take their positions, maintaining a standard "3-1-2" formation even in this narrow alley. Two warriors and one guard stand at the front, while the stalker and healer stand at the rear. The stalker looks for opportunities, while the healer provides support. Zhang Caijun, as the sharpshooter, stands in the middle of the team. As the captain, he is the strongest and can support his teammates at any time.

The guards methodically deployed their shields, a type of shield Su Yang had never seen before. Many rocks and dirt floated in mid-air, making it look nothing like a shield. The physical and elemental attacks of the two warriors, including Zhang Caijun's attacks, could pass directly through the floating rocks and dirt to attack the opponent.

But what happened next shocked Su Yang. When the attack from Feng Tianyou's temporary teammates reached the shield, the floating rocks and soil instantly contracted and condensed into a complete stone shield, blocking the attack. This type of shield seemed somewhat "intelligent," but it was still human-controlled and relied too much on the operator's judgment of the situation by the naked eye.

After deflecting several attacks, Feng Tianyou realized the problem. He coordinated with his teammates to execute a counter-strategy, creating a time difference. Two attacks came at intervals, and Feng Tianyou followed closely behind, rushing towards the shield as it coalesced. As expected, the guard, upon detecting the attacks, manipulated the shield to solidify, successfully blocking the first attack. When the shield reopened, the guard was dumbfounded to see the second attack already upon him and Feng Tianyou close behind. This was an unexpected situation, leaving him unsure whether to solidify the shield first or prepare to engage the enemy.

However, there was far too little time to rebuild the shield, and the guard could only watch helplessly as the attack passed through the shield and struck behind him.

"Watch out!" he shouted, then looked back.

Fortunately, Zhang Caijun was highly skilled. He leaped into the air, drew his sword mid-air, and neutralized the attack, indirectly protecting the healer behind him. After landing, he immediately drew his bow and shouted to the guards, "Prepare to engage the enemy!"

The thirteen members of both sides instantly clashed. Although Feng Tianyou's temporary team lacked coordination, their individual strengths were considerable. While their fighting style was disorganized, it still made it difficult for Qingfeng's team to cope. In particular, He Hai'er was only a fourth-tier elementalist and a healer. Apart from providing support, she couldn't use effective attacks or defenses, which forced Zhang Caijun to focus on protecting her. As a result, the situation became quite difficult to resolve.

The sounds of fighting quickly attracted the attention of the county magistrate's troops. Commander Liu noticed something amiss and immediately led his troops to block the alley entrance. He spotted Su Yang and the Qingfeng team, who were locked in combat, along with Feng Tianyou and others. He shouted, "Take them all down!" and then drew his sword to launch the first attack.

Surrounded in this cramped space, with one side trying to kill him, another trying to protect him, and yet another trying to capture him, Su Yang felt utterly unlucky.

Seeing that the guards had arrived, Zhang Caijun couldn't care less about anything else and said to He Hai'er, "Hai'er! Please, stop the guards!"

"it is good!"

Upon receiving the order, He Hai'er immediately came to Su Yang's side and activated the power of the wood element. A burst of green light lit up the ground and walls not far away, and then many vines grew from the ground and walls, blocking a small section of the alley and attempting to stop Liu Tongbing and the garrison soldiers from advancing.

Seeing that the road was blocked, Commander Liu was furious and shouted, "Do you know what crime you have committed by attacking the soldiers of the Prefectural Commandant's Office?!" Then he also activated the power of fire element. A ball of flame condensed in his hand and then seemed to have come to life, wriggling like a snake onto the vines. Everything in its path was set ablaze. Strangely, the flame only burned the vines and did not burn anything else. It would extinguish itself when it came into contact with anything other than vines.

While the Qingfeng Squad and Feng Tianyou were locked in a fierce battle, Liu Tongbing was waiting for the fire snakes to burn away all the vines. Time was of the essence, which increased Zhang Caijun's psychological pressure. Just then, a figure appeared on the rooftop next to the alley. It was Tang Tianlei, who had arrived. He was wearing a mask and shouted at Zhang Caijun in the alley, "Qingfeng Squad! The mission has been changed. Immediately kill the person you are protecting!"

The Green Maple Squad was recruited by Tang Wan, and their mission was to find and protect the expert back to the Tang family. After Tang Tianlei obtained the portrait from Shi Yao'er, he realized that the so-called expert was actually the person his sister Yang'er wanted to kill. Upon receiving the news, he rushed over immediately. If he had known earlier that Su Yang was a wanted person by the County Magistrate's Office, perhaps he would not have made such a rash decision.

Zhang Caijun looked up and saw a masked man giving him orders, making his already information-overloaded brain even more overwhelmed by the complex situation. Given the current circumstances, it might be better to listen to the masked man, change course, kill the person behind him, and then retreat, thus preserving the entire team. However, doing so would damage the team's reputation, and Zhang Caijun couldn't make a decision immediately.

Seeing that Zhang Caijun hadn't made a move, Tang Tianlei took out his token and threw it at him. Zhang Caijun caught the token and, upon seeing it, immediately understood the masked man's identity. He made a decision in an instant and shouted to his teammates and Feng Tianyou, "Stop! Join forces to kill the person in the portrait!"

Although Feng Tianyou and his temporary teammates were also puzzled, there was no harm in working together to complete the mission; they would only receive less reward. For Su Yang, however, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Those who were originally protecting him and those who were originally trying to kill him had joined forces. Thirteen elementals were eyeing him menacingly, while the county magistrate's troops were making their breakthrough and seemed to be finishing soon. Su Yang thought to himself, "Am I about to go on another killing spree today...?"

No sooner said than done. Just as Su Yang and Lin Anlan were about to unleash their elemental powers, a deep voice rang out: "How dare you! In broad daylight, you dare to kill someone in front of the commander of the prefectural magistrate's army!"

Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw it was Commander Liu. He had already broken through the vines, and with his sword in hand, he slowly walked to Su Yang's side, protecting Su Yang behind him. The other soldiers also rushed in, protecting Su Yang and Lin Anlan tightly, as if they were about to start fighting again at the slightest disagreement.

The unexpected turn of events left Su Yang bewildered. Just moments ago, they were clamoring to take down his own guards, but now they were suddenly protecting him. He exchanged a glance with Lin Anlan, and the two of them stopped what they were doing and prepared to observe the situation.

Seeing this situation, Tang Tianlei knew that he could not succeed today. Even his Tang family could not stand up to the prefectural command. If this matter was made a reality, not only would he not be able to refuse the forced marriage, but the entire Tang family might also be destroyed. Helpless, he could only order the Qingfeng team to "Withdraw!"

After saying that, he left first. The Qingfeng Squad did not dare to linger and immediately left. Seeing that the Qingfeng Squad, with whom they had just reached an agreement, had retreated, how could they possibly contend with the County Commandant's Office? So they also hurriedly retreated.
