Qin Feng was a bit speechless after hearing Chen Wuming's words.
They had been adversaries for so many years in the past life, and he never noticed this groveling trait in him before.
Even when facing official forces, Chen Wuming was always quite tough!
At this moment, although Chen Wuming had over a hundred guild members with him, they were still completely at a disadvantage.
It was as if Qin Feng alone had surrounded all of them...
The hundred or so members of the Knight's Sanctuary guild looked at Qin Feng with eyes full of awe, admiration, anxiety, and even some of the girls with affection...
"It's really Shadow, I'm so honored to actually see the legendary Shadow!"
"I can brag about this for a year!"
"So cool!!"
"When the guild leader taught us the chant earlier, I felt embarrassed, but now that I've seen the legend, it just came out so naturally!"
"By the way, how did Brother Pineapple offend Shadow? Sigh, I hope we don't get dragged into this; I don't want to be against Shadow..."
While the members of the Knight's Sanctuary were feeling conflicted.
In the crowd, a long-haired girl wearing a Bronze-tier priest robe was also looking at Qin Feng with admiration, though there was a hint of regret deep in her eyes.
That was Qin Xiaoyou.
In her view, she originally had a chance to get acquainted with Shadow...
But somehow, that opportunity slipped away.
However, seeing that 'Shadow' always acted alone, Qin Xiaoyou didn't feel too bad.
After all, this legend has always been a lone wolf!
So it wasn't really targeting her.
But now she felt a bit uneasy, wondering how her guild, the Knight's Sanctuary, had offended the legend?
Qin Feng, on the other hand, hadn't noticed her presence at all.
He glanced at Chen Wuming and asked, "Were you just attacking a hideout?"
Chen Wuming was taken aback and instinctively nodded, "Yes... that hideout wouldn't happen to be yours, would it?"
Qin Feng replied, "That hideout is mine."
???
Chen Wuming was stunned.
The guild managers behind him were also stunned.
Most importantly, Qin Xiaoyou in the crowd was stunned!
They were just speculating on how they had offended Shadow.
Could it be the issue with the Yellow Haired Berserker 'Pineapple'?
If that were the case, they could just kick that guy out of the guild.
But...
It turned out the hideout they were attacking was actually Qin Feng's hideout!
Chen Wuming was bewildered and instinctively retorted, "But, isn't your hideout supposed to be in Magic City?"
"Ahem."
Behind Chen Wuming, a middle-aged priest wearing a Silver-tier robe coughed and quietly reminded, "Guild Leader, an individual can only have one hideout, but if you create a guild, the guild can have one in its name too..."
Chen Wuming: "But isn't the legend just one person?"
Rebirth of the Cake Hand Dad: "Can't one person start a guild?"
Chen Wuming: "True..."
They quickly finished their discussion and suddenly realized that things might be a bit serious.
"Uh, legend, we really didn't know that hideout was yours..."
Chen Wuming looked distressed, "Or rather, we weren't even sure if there was a hideout behind that stone door. Legend, what should we do now? How can we make amends?"
Fighting was no longer an option.
The key now was to figure out how to handle this situation.
Of course, Chen Wuming wasn't too worried, because since Shadow had called him over, it was clear he wanted to negotiate and resolve this...
As long as the legend didn't start killing, everything could be discussed.
Qin Feng opened the hideout panel, took a look, and then said, "That stone door is the entrance to my hideout, and you've damaged 0.7% of its durability. It'll cost quite a bit to repair... How about this, give me five hundred years of lifespan, and we'll call it even."
"What? Five hundred years of lifespan?"
Upon hearing Qin Feng's words, Chen Wuming closed his eyes and fainted on the spot.
"Guild Leader, Guild Leader!"
"Guild Leader, what's wrong?"
Several guild managers immediately rushed over to support him, only to find that he had already passed out.
This left the members of the Knight's Sanctuary dumbfounded.
Qin Feng was also a bit speechless...
The middle-aged priest, 'Rebirth of the Cake Hand Dad,' approached Qin Feng with a constipated expression, "Legend, you see... our guild leader has fainted. Could you perhaps lower it a bit?"
This guy, Qin Feng knew him.
In the past life, he had dealt with the Knight's Sanctuary guild for so many years and was very familiar with its core management.
Hearing Cake Hand Dad's words, Qin Feng said calmly, "Not a bit less. Do you know how much lifespan it takes to repair that 0.7% durability?"
Cake Hand Dad shook his head in confusion, "I don't know..."
At this moment.
Chen Wuming suddenly gasped, stood up abruptly, and looked at Qin Xiaoyou in the crowd with a face full of grief, "Five hundred years, five hundred years! What did I do to deserve this?"
Qin Xiaoyou was also dumbfounded.
She originally wanted to discover a hideout to earn guild rewards.
But...
This hideout belonged to Shadow?
And they went to attack it?
Now, Shadow was demanding five hundred years of lifespan as compensation, which meant she had caused the guild a loss of five hundred years?
In this situation, Qin Xiaoyou had an idea, steeled herself, and stepped forward, "I'll take responsibility for my actions. Brother Shadow, if you want to punish someone, punish me. I'll do whatever you ask..."
Her words made the scene fall silent.
Even Chen Wuming was a bit surprised.
"Wow, this girl is something. This way, she can both help the guild out of trouble and seize the chance to connect with the legend..."
While Chen Wuming was thinking this.
Qin Feng patted him on the shoulder, "Do you think she's worth five hundred years?"
Chen Wuming, with the pat on his shoulder, immediately reacted, "Damn it, definitely not worth it! But legend, we're just a small guild, we really can't come up with five hundred years..."
"Then forget it, I won't make it difficult for you."
Qin Feng shook his head and said, "A hundred years of lifespan will do. For the remaining four hundred years, use heads to make up for it. Bring the members with Slayer status from your guild, one head for one year, is that okay?"
"Also, from now on, my hideout will be guarded by your guild. Find some people to take turns guarding it, and don't let anyone attack it again."
In fact, this was Qin Feng's real purpose.
Lifespan, Qin Feng wasn't lacking it now.
But the 'Land of Purification' hideout, located in the Jianghai City Ruins, needed someone to watch over it.
If the Knight's Sanctuary guild could send people to guard it, then in Jianghai City, he could rest easy!
And players with Slayer status were also useful to Qin Feng.
Currently, his Slayer status was hovering between level four and five, which sometimes restricted him.
Having the Knight's Sanctuary provide Slayer players' heads was just right!
They could line up, and Qin Feng could solve it with one skill, easily and happily!
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Chen Wuming finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Legend, that's easy to handle. Please wait a moment, I'll arrange it!"
