Zheng Xiaoguang knew that Han Meimei was in a tough spot. Forget it, after all, it was not as if she would be spending every day with Venus. This time, it was a task for a team of five anyway—let's go together.

But this team was strange indeed, if it were to be seen by the gossipers, who knew whether it would go onto the front page of the s.h.i.+ny Sky Forum—some G.o.d-like player carrying a new love while still being in love with the old in this instance.

Han Meimei opened the transcript, and the five people were all transported to Peony Square. This transcript talked about how a flower was forcibly seized by the Lord of Evil and the story of how her old flame went to save her. The early part of the story required the player to follow the flower's old flame in order to beat up the small monster and save Flower, then defeating BOSS the Big Evil Master.

Everyone in the team was an expert and it was very easy to kill the small monsters. But after rescuing Flower, Young Master Evil got angrily easily and released large numbers of small monsters to kill Flower. Still, players were unable to add blood for Flower. If players didn't kill Young Master Evil before Flower's death, then the transcript challenge would be counted as a failure.

Bluegreen-Clad brought them to kill the monsters on the road and indeed met Young Master Evil. Seeing his beauty about to get abducted, he rushed forward to challenge Bluegreen-Clad to a duel. After receiving hits, Young Master Evil had only 50% blood left when he started the rage function automatically, his attack power increasing by 100%, at the same time starting to call large numbers of small monsters to a.s.sault Flower.

[Nearby] Young Master Evil: What I can't have—I will not let other people have it either!

Because Young Master Evil's attack power had suddenly increased, and no one in the team had the close attack power, Bluegreen-Clad, Han Meimei and Li Lei the three main strikers had all lost half of their blood. Zheng Xiaoguang hurriedly backed them up with blood.

However, increasingly she found that something felt amiss. Why did Venus only add blood for Bluegreen-Clad?

In a normal team, without a lead man with offensive power, the doctor would have to prioritize attacking the highest occupation because the player that inflicted the greatest damage on BOSS would easily gain his ire. Now, there were only two doctors in the team. As the main force in the team, Bluegreen-Clad could afford to add blood for them.

But as "Bluegreen-Clad's former fiance", not voluntarily attempting to avoid suspicion was one thing, but even taking the initiative to take up this position was something intriguing.

Being Bluegreen-Clad's wife, such words should come from Flowing Light. Moreover, be it operating techniques or defences, it was Flowing Light who gained the upper hand. Venus stood no chance.

But Venus did not wish to play second fiddle. Zheng Xiaoguang could only wait for Han Meimei and Li Lei, when she had extra time, to use the blood-sucking technique to prolong the period that BOSS had to call out the little monsters.

Han Meimei and Blue-green Clad attacked BOSS, while Li Lei was in charge of killing the small monsters let out by Young Master Evil at the first instance.

[Nearby] Young Master Evil: Han Meimei, do you also wish to taste my prowess?

This was the omen that BOSS' hatred was turning towards Han Meimei. Zheng Xiaoguang hurriedly added blood for Han Meimei and Venue was still refres.h.i.+ng blood for Bluegreen-Clad, whose blood was full.

[Nearby] Young Master Evil: Li Lei, death will strike fear in you.

With only 10% of blood left, BOSS started to unleash his hatred in all directions, which would hit any player in the attacking team. Zheng Xiaoguang immediately gave Li Lei the s.h.i.+eld and started to refresh blood for herself and Han Meimei and her husband, not knowing who BOSS would want to kill. It was thus most important to ensure everyone had full blood.

[Nearby] Young Master Evil: Venus Will Cry, death will strike fear in you.

Following the last threat, Young Master Evil was killed by Bluegreen-Clad while the beautiful female doctor, Venus Will Cry, also collapsed on the ground pitifully, whited out by BOSS.

Venus must only have added blood for Bluegreen-Clad and overlooked her own bloodline. Being a highly-ranked doctor, it was strange that she would still have made this mistake. Zheng Xiaoguang pursed her lips and pulled her up.

As BOSS' corpse lay on the ground, the Game Message announced that this team's transcript challenge had succeeded. Han Meimei felt the defence equipment that had just appeared, and everyone quickly sent out their transcripts.

After leaving the battle arena, Zheng Xiaoguang wanted to leave the team immediately; but who knew that Venus suggested again to challenge the other usual tasks. Today, besides fighting with Temple, Son of Heaven did not bring her to complete them.

[Team] Flowing Light: I'll never join the Sacred Temple!

Bluegreen-Clad raised his head and looked at Zheng Xiaoguang who was sitting opposite him. "You don't want to play anymore?"

Zheng Xiaoguang's face looked melancholic. "I don't want to play missions with them anymore."

[Team] Bluegreen-Clad: Li Lei, we are leaving now.

Flowing Light and Bluegreen-Clad hurriedly left Han Meimei's team.

Venus, seeing the notifications in the team hurriedly flung the wireless mouse out of her hands. It fell onto the floor with a clang—it was dead.

After the city battle the last time, the League of Strong Families that Flowing Light had belonged to increase more and more. Even when Bluegreen-Clad was not around, One-inch Monk would invite Flowing Light to take up the mantle of making the decision. Seeing Flowing Light's status grow increasingly stable, Venus started to worry very early on.

With "s.h.i.+ny Sky Beauty Contest", she had thought it was a good chance; which was why she signed up for it, but who knew that it would be an empty surprise.

She could not take this lying down. How was Flowing Light stronger than her? Her only advantage was in having a gang boss of the Matchless as her brother. Or else, how could Bluegreen-Clad have been with her!

All this while, she had sent Bluegreen-Clad messages; but he replied to none of them. Once, she went completing transcripts with Son of Heaven, finally convincing him to form a team comprising of Han Meimei, Li Lei and Bluegreen Clad. But Bluegreen-Clad, seeing a team at full strength without Flowing Light, immediately retreated from the team, saying he wanted to wait for Flowing Light to play missions together.

Flowing Light, Flowing Light, it was always Flowing Light.

Venus did not understand why Bluegreen-Clad treated Flowing Light so well. It was just a game and how many male players, who had married their wives, still liked flirting with beautiful ladies, chatting up so many mistresses. Including that time when she was dueling to find relatives, there were many "married men" who had also sent Private Chats to her, wanting to keep her as a mistress. Also, there was a guy whose reputation was not good in the game, liking to tease girls everywhere—his name was Motherf*cker. In more direct terms, he wanted to keep her as his mistress.

Men, they were all the same—eating what was in their bowls and looking at the pot. She had seen enough of that even in reality.

But only Bluegreen-Clad wanted to be with Flowing Light singleheartedly.

The more devoted he was, the more she wanted to grab him back.

Every time Venus expressed it to Bluegreen-Clad and used excuses of being too busy with her missions to spend alone time with him, he was either nonchalant or said, "Wait for Son of Heaven instead!"

Even though Bluegreen-Clad had treated her as the wife of Son of Heaven, kept her respectfully at arm's length and even rejected any chances of spending alone time with her, it meant "not cheating on his friend's wife", no?

But why did she spend time still with Son of Heaven? Was it to take advantage of Son of Heaven and to get closer with Bluegreen-Clad. It was no easy to get close enough to Han Meimei, and get the transcript with Bluegreen-Clad's team. It was more regretful that Flowing Light had taken Bluegreen-Clad so soon.

When Flowing Light and Bluegreen-Clad had left, Han Meimei was still gossiping behind her back in the team; how she should have known her limits, how could she still fight with Flowing Light to add blood for Bluegreen-Clad?

Venus was not caring. She had wanted to use this opportunity to break them up; it was best to let them argue between themselves, or ignore each other for days. If not, why should she have entered this team? Was it to see Flowing Light and Bluegreen-Clad get closer?

However, how could she admit such a thing? Hence, she pretended to say that she had gotten used to it when she was killing monsters with Son of Heaven and that it was not to fight with Flowing Light deliberately.

Han Meimei did not say more and asked when she and Son of Heaven were going to be married.

[Team] Han Meimei: The duel for relatives had happened a week ago, if you don't wish to marry Son of Heaven, you should let him know earlier; I would not prepare the red packet for the money then.

Venus knew that Han Meimei was still suspecting her and thus used the excuse of the date with the Son of Heaven's Yellow Spring Sword to pacify her. But she knew in her heart that she could not use this excuse anymore. Lately, Son of Heaven had kept bringing up the Seven Stars' Yellow Spring Sword, only missing success by a little material.

By the looks of it, she had to start doing something about it.
