Mistaking a horror game for a romance novel, he unexpectedly became a legend.

Song Yi quickly released Lu Xiao, who breathed a sigh of relief as he emerged from inside.

"Phew~ It's finally out."

Previously, the environment in the game wasn't right, so Xiaobai didn't have a chance. Now that everyone was out, Xiaobai couldn't help but hug Lu Xiao. Only after feeling the real touch did Xiaobai feel relieved.

"Boss, you're finally back."

Lu Xiao was both moved and touched. Yes, he was finally back.

He patted Xiaobai on the shoulder: "Xiaobai, thank you."

They exchanged a few pleasantries, unaware that the game lobby would once again shock everyone.

Inside the game lobby, the moment Lu Xiao emerged from the All-Encompassing Map, the overall personal score leaderboard changed once again.

Su Lie, who was in first place, has fallen to second place again, while Lu Xiao has regained first place.

When everyone saw the overall points leaderboard refreshed, they thought someone in third or fourth place was going to move up, but unexpectedly, Lu Xiao came back.

"Holy crap, Lu Xiao is back."

"What the hell? Wasn't Lu Xiao dead?"

"Su Lie has been suppressed again."

"My goodness, I've never seen anything like this before!"

Su Lie didn't die, but his life was worse than death.

If the game hadn't ended early, he might not have survived. Although he escaped, he was severely injured, arguably the most badly wounded player, with even his vital areas damaged.

After other contestants came out, those with serious injuries could just spend a few hundred points to buy some healing medicine. Su Lie, however, spent a full 10000 points, almost using up all his savings.

One of the two members of the Kunpeng team was killed inside, and one of the two outside team members that Su Lie brought in also died. The Kunpeng team's score ranked last among the nine teams, with only 19 points.

The captain of the Kunpeng team, Jiang Chong, looked ashen-faced as if he had eaten shit, because they hadn't achieved such a poor result in several years.

When Lu Xiao was in charge, their team was guaranteed to be number one in any team competition, and no team member had ever died in a team competition. Just for that reason alone, other teams were incredibly envious of the Kunpeng team.

However, after Su Lie became number one, the first team competition ended with only 19 points, a score that was a slap in the face for the Kunpeng team.

What Jiang Chong regretted most was that he had removed Lu Xiao from the list to make room for another spot, but he never expected Lu Xiao to come back.

"Huh? What happened? Why did the Kunpeng team's ranking drop two places? Although Su Lie's performance wasn't good, didn't Lu Xiao come back?"

“Holy crap, look at Lu Xiao’s profile, ‘Ah Dui Dui’ player, holy crap, he’s not a member of the Kunpeng team anymore.”

"No way, no way, has the Kunpeng team gone mad? They just let Lu Xiao leave like that?"

"The Kunpeng team are absolute idiots. Lu Xiao is much better than Su Lie. What were they thinking?"

Jiang Chong, the captain of the Kunpeng team, looked ashen-faced as he listened to the voices around him.

No, he couldn't give up on Lu Xiao. He had to find Lu Xiao again, even if it meant expelling Su Lie from the party, he couldn't let Lu Xiao leave.

Just then, Lu Xiao emerged from the All-Encompassing Map, and Jiang Chong's eyes lit up the moment he saw him.

He rushed forward immediately: "Lu Xiao."

Jiang Chong called out Lu Xiao's name, and when Lu Xiao turned around, Jiang Chong rushed up to hug him.

As Jiang Chong approached Lu Xiao, Lu Xiao dodged him, and Jiang Chong missed his hug. He was slightly embarrassed, but he quickly covered it up.

Jiang Chong said to Lu Xiao with apparent enthusiasm:

"That's great, Lu Xiao, you're finally back. You have no idea how worried I was about you."

Before Lu Xiao could react, Xiao Bai almost vomited. How come he never realized Jiang Chong was such a hypocritical and disgusting person before?

When Lu Xiao "died," Jiang Chong showed no sadness whatsoever; in fact, he was quite heartless. When Lu Xiao tried to save him, Jiang Chong not only refused to offer any help but also watched as Su Lie made things difficult for him.

Lu Xiao already knew what kind of person Jiang Chong was, so he wasn't surprised that Jiang Chong was removed from the team. In fact, he should thank Jiang Chong a little, as he had saved him a lot of trouble. Fortunately, the team invitation that Song Yi had sent him hadn't expired yet, so he accepted it as soon as he left the game.

Lu Xiao was very polite on the surface: "It's been a long time since I've seen Captain Jiang."

Jiang Chong seemed completely oblivious to Lu Xiao's aloofness:

"Good brother, I was heartbroken for days because you disappeared. I'm so happy to see you back safe and sound."

"When can you return to the team? I'll arrange it right away."

Song Yi: ? ? ? "Hey? You stole my teammate? Did you ask for my permission?"

Jiang Chong turned his gaze to Song Yi. From the beginning, he had not taken Song Yi seriously. Before participating in the team competition, Song Yi's "Ah Dui Dui Team" was ranked in the top 1000, and was just a trash team.

But now, after just one game, his team has climbed to 502nd place. Keep in mind, this is just one game, not ten. This speed is nothing short of meteoric for a new team.

Jiang Chong attributed all of this to Lu Xiao, after all, he had witnessed miracles through Lu Xiao.

When Jiang Chong faced Song Yi, his attitude became much more arrogant.

“Captain Song Yi, right? I’ve looked at your team’s information. Your team has just been established, with very few members and a limited number of spots. Most importantly, your resources are also very limited. You can’t support Lu Xiao in such an environment.”

Song Yi stood there calmly listening to Jiang Chong speak. Jiang Chong, seeing Song Yi's serious expression, assumed that he had taken it to heart.

Jiang Chong continued:

"I have a win-win solution. Our Kunpeng team is experienced and has many excellent players. As long as you return Lu Xiao, I promise to lead your team in 50 games and guarantee that your team will enter the top 300 of the team rankings. How about that?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yi chuckled. Jiang Chong felt that Song Yi's attitude was disrespectful, but he remained silent because he still needed to discuss Lu Xiao's matter with him.

Unexpectedly, Song Yi actually said:

"Are you kidding me? A team with a total score of 19 points is teaching a team with 99 points how to play the game? Do you think I have an IQ problem? You guys are pretty malicious, trying to make our team collectively lose their intelligence."

Jiang Chong's face instantly turned cold. This 19 points was indeed embarrassing enough, and it might even become a dark history for their team.
