The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]-Chapter 743 - EVER-SUPPORTIVE JI YUN

AFTER the semi-finals everyone had to log out because they were already nearing the time limit in which they could remain inside the game. All of them unanimously decided to celebrate after the finals. After all, whoever might win between Luo Yan and Luo Jin, it would be a cause for celebration.           

Luo Yan removed the VR helmet he's wearing and carefully placed it on the bed. The finals would be held at nine in the evening. It's only a quarter before six now. Plenty of time to have dinner and to relax a bit before they logged into the game again.

He stood up and was about to go outside when his phone rang. He walked to his study table where his phone was and picked it up. He saw that it was a WeChat message from Shen Ji Yun.

[luckycloud]: You did amazing during the semi-finals, Yan Yan. Please, eat a hearty dinner and regained back your strength. By the way, what time would you and your family logged in back into the game later?

A smile immediately appeared on Luo Yan's face just by reading this message. They didn't have time earlier to talk much after the semi-finals ended. That must be why Shen Ji Yun was sending him this message. 

Instead of sending a reply, he directly sent a video call request to the other. It didn't take that long before his request was accepted and Shen Ji Yun's handsome face appeared on the screen of Luo Yan's phone.

"We'll probably go back to the game 30 minutes before the finals," he said in response to the other's question.

Shen Ji Yun nodded. Staring at Luo Yan, that familiar joy bubbled up inside him. It's rare for him to see the other's real face. So, every chance he got, he simply couldn't hide his happiness. 

"You're going directly at the headquarters, right?" he asked even though they had all already agreed to meet up there first before the finals started.

"Yeah. By the way, thank you for giving Jiao Jiao permission to directly teleport to our team's headquarters," Luo Yan said.

Since Yu Jiao was not a member of team Yunyue, giving her such permission was definitely a big deal.

"It's nothing. Actually, if it wouldn't be too controversial, I would have already invited her to be part of our team."

Luo Yan understood what the other meant. Because Yu Jiao was a famous Blacksmith in the game, if she joined a specific team, other players might start to think that she would sabotage the weapons being ordered by other teams. Even more so if team Yunyue joined the next season of Arcadia Cup. 

Such things would definitely affect Yu Jiao's reputation as a Blacksmith. Something that Luo Yan didn't want to happen. It would affect Yu Jiao's source of income. And with her and her mother being separated now from the Mo family, it's much more important to not let anything affect that.

Based on the rates of the weapons being sold at Yu Jiao's shop, he could say that it was definitely more than enough for her and her mother to be financially stable. If the other was suddenly embroidered in some issue that could affect that, it wouldn't be as simple as her having less customer. 

In any kind of business, having a good reputation was always important. If the number one Blacksmith in the game was suddenly labeled as 'bias' and 'unfair', it would surely not be a very good thing for Yu Jiao. 

It's the reason why Luo Yan hadn't tried inviting the other to joining Yunyue. Because he knew that it would be much better for the other to remain a free agent. 

"It's fine even if she couldn't be an official member of our team. She's already like an honorary member anyway," he said.

It's okay even if the rest of team Yunyue were the ones who knew it.

Shen Ji Yun didn't refute that. Because it's true in a way. Yu Jiao was probably the only other player that get to tour around their team's headquarters without being a member. Of course, excluding Uncle Tian and older brother Luo.

"Ahm, by the way, did that Winged Tassel do something to make you angry?" he asked, changing the topic.

This was something that he'd been meaning to ask. He probably could ask later, but his curiosity just wouldn't allow him to wait that long. Especially since this matter had something to do with Luo Yan.

"Ah, him?" With this question, Luo Yan finally realized that he seemed to have gone a bit crazy during his match with Winged Tassel. And he did it too under everyone's eyes. Including his father and older brother. He scratched his cheek. They wouldn't think he's too violent, right? He cleared his throat and answered Shen Ji Yun's question first. "He wanted to take the blue gem on Eclipse's forehead."

He then explained how he arrived at that conclusion.

Shen Ji Yun frowned. Sure enough, that tengu had really done something. Coveting something of Eclipse, no wonder Luo Yan became angry. "Do you need help dealing with him?" 

Luo Yan smiled. That response was just like so Shen Ji Yun. "Nah. I already warned him. But if he has bigger guts that I expected and he still tried after that, then, we'll double team him. We can cut his wings to teach him a lesson. I'll cut the left one and you could cut the right."

Shen Ji Yun nodded with a serious expression, as if he was already planning on how they would go around doing that. Luo Yan couldn't help but chuckle seeing the other with that expression.

If there's a mirror in front of him right now, then he would see how soft his eyes were while gazing at Shen Ji Yun. 

A person who would unwaveringly support what you wanted to do no matter how crazy it might seem, especially if that person was the one you liked, who wouldn't be happy, right?
