Nie Yan appeared to have no temper, which was related to his composed attitude, but when it came to principled matters, he would not yield even an inch. His principle was simple: no one messes with his people, no one at all!
“Tell the brothers under my command to fight with vigor and valor. If Bi Luo Cang Qiong kills ten of our people, we kill a hundred of theirs. If they kill a hundred of ours, we wipe out their entire guild!” Nie Yan declared coldly. His subordinates needed to develop a fierce and fearless spirit; if they flinched at every challenge, the members of Niu Ren Tribe would become timid lambs. When the guild faced crises or leaders were in trouble, they would be the first to flee.
Moreover, the members of Niu Ren Tribe were all waiting to see how the guild leadership would respond. If Nie Yan simply abandoned Ku Ye Studio to its fate, many players would leave the guild, and the unity of Niu Ren Tribe would collapse entirely.
The leadership of Niu Ren Tribe could not afford to lose face!
If a guild refuses to stand up for its own members, those members will never support the guild.
Nie Yan easily determined what mattered most.
Even if it meant offending Bi Luo Cang Qiong, it would be worth it if it earned Ku Ye Studio’s unwavering loyalty to Niu Ren Tribe.
“Although my rational mind tells me this approach is too hasty, and we could find a better way to resolve this, I still support your decision. I’ll start gathering the brothers immediately!” Guo Huai said, and he relayed Nie Yan’s words into the guild chat.
“Whoever attacks our Niu Ren Tribe brothers, no matter which guild they belong to—Bi Luo Cang Qiong, Triumph Empire, or even our allies like the Holy Roman Empire or the Jialan Guild—I’ll cut them down without hesitation!” “Tell the brothers to fight with vigor and valor. If Bi Luo Cang Qiong kills ten of us, we kill a hundred of them. If they kill a hundred of us, we wipe out their entire guild!”
Nie Yan’s words were posted in the guild chat, causing an uproar. The guild chat exploded with deafening cheers, and Nie Yan’s words stirred the hearts of every member of Niu Ren Tribe. Having such a leader, even if they were killed back to level zero, it would still be worth it! No matter where they went in the future—even outside the game—they could proudly say, “I am a member of Niu Ren Tribe!”
“Long live Leader Nie Yan!”
“Damn it! Wipe out those bastards from Bi Luo Cang Qiong!”
The guild chat erupted with fierce shouts, morale soared, and the members’ loyalty to Nie Yan had never been stronger.
Guo Huai hadn’t expected Nie Yan’s words to provoke such a massive reaction. He could feel the intense emotions of every member of Niu Ren Tribe. At this moment, these people truly belonged to Niu Ren Tribe. Their hearts bore the mark of Niu Ren Tribe, sharing its glory and disgrace forever.
The difference before and after was something Guo Huai could clearly feel.
He thought deeply about what he himself lacked compared to Nie Yan—it was precisely that fighting spirit! Perhaps only Nie Yan could truly be called a real leader, as he had ignited the entire Niu Ren Tribe’s morale!
If Niu Ren Tribe were compared to an army, this army now had a soul!
At Nie Yan’s command, these members of Niu Ren Tribe would move mountains and fill seas, unstoppable wherever they marched!
All the players of Niu Ren Tribe were united by their guild, bonded by the word “brother,” feeling closer than ever.
At this moment, Guo Huai felt that Nie Yan’s decision was correct! He immediately began mobilizing his people, and his orders were executed with unprecedented speed.
“Where are Shui Se Yantou and the others now?” Nie Yan asked. He needed to track their movements.
“They are in Dusk Forest. Players from Bi Luo Cang Qiong are also there. They’ve already killed over a hundred of Bi Luo Cang Qiong’s members, and the battle is still ongoing. About eight or nine thousand players from Bi Luo Cang Qiong are heading there, likely planning to surround and wipe out Ku Ye Studio.” Guo Huai replied. Bi Luo Cang Qiong was acting faster than he had anticipated.
Nie Yan frowned slightly. Shui Se Yantou might be pinned down, otherwise he wouldn’t have stayed in Dusk Forest for so long. If Bi Luo Cang Qiong completed their encirclement, Shui Se Yantou and his team wouldn’t escape.
“I’ll lead a team to Dusk Forest first. You gather the rest and come as soon as possible.” Nie Yan said. Rescuing them was as urgent as putting out a fire; a delay could severely damage the morale of Niu Ren Tribe.
Below, nearly a hundred members of Niu Ren Tribe gathered at the arena stands.
“Boss, what’s the plan?”
“Boss, let’s strike back!”
The players of Niu Ren Tribe shouted, having seen the guild chat and knowing about the crisis. They were all stirred up by Nie Yan’s words.
Ban Xing De Hu Li (Half-Awake Fox) clearly understood what was happening in Niu Ren Tribe. He looked at Nie Yan with a complex expression. Major guilds like the Holy Roman Empire, Triumph Empire, and Light Holy Flame were massive and intimidating, but how many of their members were truly core players? How many were just going through the motions, unwilling to give their all in major battles? At least ninety percent of the players in these guilds were like that!
This situation wasn’t uncommon in major guilds; it was even widespread. Yet the morale and cohesion of Niu Ren Tribe were truly astonishing. At this moment, Ban Xing De Hu Li was deeply impressed by Nie Yan’s words: “Niu Ren Tribe will only have one hundred thousand members in the future!”
If you had one hundred thousand core players, properly equipped, you could dominate the world!
There’s a saying: a lion leading a flock of sheep can defeat a sheep leading a flock of lions!
Precisely because Nie Yan was such a passionate guild leader could he lead a group of fearless, invincible warriors!
“Need my help?” Ban Xing De Hu Li asked beside him. Niu Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire were now on the same boat; if one fell, the other would suffer.
“You monitor the movements of Triumph Empire and Light Holy Flame,” Nie Yan replied after a moment’s thought. They needed to be prepared in case Triumph Empire or Light Holy Flame tried to take advantage.
“Got it. Leave it to me,” Ban Xing De Hu Li nodded.
Nie Yan scanned the players of Niu Ren Tribe and shouted, “If you’re not a coward, follow me! Destination: Dusk Forest! Wipe out Bi Luo Cang Qiong!”
“Wipe out Bi Luo Cang Qiong!” The members of Niu Ren Tribe roared in unison, their voices deafening, echoing throughout the entire arena.
This was their declaration of war against Bi Luo Cang Qiong!
Like thunder before a storm!
The members of the Holy Roman Empire were astonished at the tremendous energy the players of Niu Ren Tribe had unleashed.
Especially players like Sha Bu Si De Huai (Killer Bad Guy), Xia Chong Yu Bing (Summer Insect Ice), and Bi Lou Sha (Emerald Gossamer), who seemed to be transported back to the days at their guild headquarters, when ten of them, full of heroic spirit, charged into Molten Fire Forest and defeated both Supreme Sky and Triumph Empire decisively.
The glory and morale of Niu Ren Tribe began from that moment.
They had fought side by side through fire and blood, watching each other’s backs, sharing hardships and joys.
True brotherhood was forged on the battlefield!
Looking at Nie Yan’s back, recalling his two declarations in the guild chat, Sha Bu Si De Huai felt a slight lump in his throat.
Nearly a hundred players of Niu Ren Tribe followed Nie Yan as he headed toward the teleportation array.
“Boss, what’s going on with them?” a player from the Holy Roman Empire asked in confusion.
“Something happened in Niu Ren Tribe. If our players in the Holy Roman Empire had half their morale when we faced trouble, I would be satisfied,” Ban Xing De Hu Li mused thoughtfully. Reflecting further, he realized he needed to examine himself—what made Nie Yan so beloved? Was it merely because of his reputation as the “Rogue Thief”? No, definitely not!
“Triumph Empire and Light Holy Flame are moving. What should we do?” Bu Si Huo Niao (Undying Phoenix) asked beside him. He had just received intelligence from spies monitoring Triumph Empire and Light Holy Flame.
Triumph Empire and Light Holy Flame had spies embedded in Niu Ren Tribe. Upon learning that Niu Ren Tribe’s players were leaving the city to retaliate against Bi Luo Cang Qiong, they immediately began organizing their own players. They would never miss such an opportunity.
“Gather all players in the Holy Roman Empire who are level twenty or higher. We’re going to pay Triumph Empire and Light Holy Flame a visit!” Ban Xing De Hu Li’s eyes suddenly turned cold. The Holy Roman Empire lacked the fighting spirit of Niu Ren Tribe, so starting today, he would forge that fighting spirit into the Holy Roman Empire!
Bu Si Huo Niao noticed that his leader Fox seemed a bit different all of a sudden. After a moment, he nodded seriously, “I’ll start gathering the brothers immediately!”
The Holy Roman Empire, like a giant machine, began operating rapidly.
Nie Yan and over a hundred others teleported to Link Town and immediately rushed toward Dusk Forest. He wondered how Shui Se Yantou’s team was holding up and how much longer they could endure. However, Ku Ye Studio’s strength was formidable; it wouldn’t be easy for Bi Luo Cang Qiong to eliminate them quickly.
In Link Town, countless players from the Niu Ren Tribe converged from all directions, numbering from thousands to tens of thousands. Under the leadership of Tang Yao, who had retrieved the arcane crystal fragments Nie Yan sent to his personal vault, the Arcane Spirit had already been revived. Now brimming with energy, Tang Yao was boldly proclaiming his determination to crush Bi Luo Cang Qiong.
Squad after squad of top-tier players from Niu Ren Tribe appeared in Link Town, assembling on the open fields outside the town, creating a tense atmosphere of impending battle among the players in Link Town.
“What’s going on?”
“I heard some players from Niu Ren Tribe were wiped out by Bi Luo Cang Qiong. Niu Ren Tribe is gathering to retaliate!”
“Bi Luo Cang Qiong is doomed!”
Several major battles in Karol City had been closely tied to Niu Ren Tribe, from Black Flame Forest to Molten Fire Forest, where Supreme Sky and Triumph Empire had been defeated by Niu Ren Tribe. No matter how strong Bi Luo Cang Qiong was, could they surpass Triumph Empire? This time, they were likely to fall to Niu Ren Tribe.
Niu Ren Tribe is unstoppable!
