Chapter 1 Misunderstanding

Zhao Jianhua’s cold rebuke left Zhao Ruoxi silent for a long time.

Zhao Ruoxi had never imagined that her second uncle, who had always doted on her, would say such things, and portray Shi Feng in such a negative light, clearly showing a deep misunderstanding. Someone must be interfering.

“Second Uncle, who did you hear this from?” Zhao Ruoxi didn't immediately retort, wanting to find out what was going on.

“Who said it isn’t important. Ruoxi, from now on, you are not allowed to associate with people like Shi Feng. This is also your elder brother's intention.” Zhao Jianhua knew that Zhao Ruoxi was currently infatuated and wouldn’t listen to anything he said, so he had to act decisively. Afterward, he would meet with Shi Feng and make him stay away from Ruoxi completely.

Zhao Ruoxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She knew her second uncle was doing it for her own good, but the relationship between her and Shi Feng was clearly not what he thought. They were just classmates. It was as if she and Shi Feng were inseparable all the time. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Second Uncle, when did you start covering up for others? Let me guess… this person must be Lin Feilong, right?"

“That’s right, it is indeed Lin Feilong.” Zhao Ruoxi had already confirmed it, and Zhao Jianhua didn't deny it, but directly admitted, "Shi Feng is just a mediocre person. I think Feilong is a good kid, not only handsome and ambitious, but also good at fighting. Now that *God's Domain* is so popular, I heard that Feilong is a high-level member of the Underworld Guild. He also has a good eye for future prospects. Why reject such a promising young man and insist on finding an incompetent one? Even I, your second uncle, will stand on your elder brother’s side on this matter."

“Second Uncle, you really misunderstood. There’s nothing between us.” Zhao Ruoxi couldn't help but smile wryly. On the contrary, Lin Feilong's actions made her very angry, but she was also grateful. Fortunately, Shi Feng appeared, and she finally saw Lin Feilong's true colors.

"Misunderstood? Your second uncle has discerning eyes and understands very well. In short, it is absolutely impossible to let that kid in. I still have this right." Zhao Jianhua would not believe Zhao Ruoxi's words. He knew that Zhao Ruoxi had been cunning since she was a child, and he would not be fooled on this matter.

Zhao Jianhua was not a shrewd businessman, nor did he manage the group. Instead, he was a martial arts enthusiast and fighter. Only later did he start managing the group’s security department. The one who truly managed the entire group was Zhao Ruoxi’s father, Zhao Jianxuan.

Therefore, Zhao Jianhua had always liked future fighting athletes like Lin Feilong, because only strong men could protect their women well. But what was Shi Feng? He had clearly investigated him. He was a complete weakling who was often bullied. Such a person was too unreliable, so this time Zhao Jianhua firmly opposed it.

While Zhao Jianhua and Zhao Ruoxi were talking, Lin Feilong, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was secretly delighted.

He couldn’t beat Shi Feng in the open, but he could play Shi Feng to death in the dark. With Zhao Jianhua’s strong opposition, plus the fact that he had already told Zhao Jianxuan about this matter, both of them strongly opposed it. Even if Shi Feng bewitched Zhao Ruoxi, they would never be together. As long as he developed in the Underworld Guild and became a core figure, Zhao Jianxuan and Zhao Jianhua would probably support him and Zhao Ruoxi being together.

With the financial resources of the Zhao Corporation, he would be able to control the entire Underworld Guild. What would Shi Feng be at that time? What would Zhang Luowei be? What would Lan Hailong be?

"Youcai, you did a good job this time. I will say a few good words for you in front of Brother Zhang. Come to our Underworld Guild as soon as you graduate," Lin Feilong said, patting He Youcai, who was respectful next to him, with satisfaction.

"This is just a small matter. I will need Brother Long's guidance in the future," He Youcai said with a smile.

The president of the student union was indeed very powerful at Jinhai University, but once he left Jinhai University, he was nothing and no one paid attention to him. For the sake of his future, He Youcai agreed to Lin Feilong's request and did not sign up Shi Feng. Moreover, Zhao Jianhua had also issued instructions not to allow Shi Feng to enter, which was like killing two birds with one stone. Why not?

However, what He Youcai and Lin Feilong didn't know was that the outside of the liaison venue was very lively at this time. The Jinhai Liaison was originally very famous in Jinhai. Many reporters and media would come, not to mention the onlookers.

But now it was even more lively, and it was crowded with people. Passers-by thought that some world-class superstar had appeared, and they lined up one by one. There were all kinds of people. No one knew what they were doing.

"Hey, little brother, what's going on up ahead? Why are so many people lining up?"

"Oh, you don't know? Zero Wing Guild is recruiting."

"Zero Wing Guild, what is that?"

"Of course, it's the most powerful and mysterious guild in Star-Moon Kingdom."

"What is Star-Moon Kingdom?"

"Damn, have you played *God's Domain*? You don't even know this? Where did you come from, you bumpkin!"

"..."

Most of the passers-by were office workers, who usually worked from nine to five. They didn't even have time to work and earn money. How could they have time to play games? Naturally, they didn't know. However, seeing hundreds of people lining up, and the number was still increasing, many passers-by who didn't play *God's Domain* felt extremely confused about the game *God's Domain*. They didn't know what kind of game it was that had such an influence.

It was just a game guild recruiting new members, but hundreds of people came to sign up, and the number was still increasing crazily. It probably wouldn't take long to break a thousand people. What was even more incredible was that a TV reporter ran over to broadcast live.

What was going on?

"It's just a game guild recruiting people. You can't earn a cent, and you have to work so hard to line up. It's just stupid," an office elite who passed by ridiculed.

The words of this office elite instantly drew contemptuous and idiotic looks from many people in the line.

"This idiot doesn't even understand what it means for a *God's Domain* guild to recruit people. No wonder he's destined to be busy his whole life."

"What do you care what he does? How would he know that guilds in reality recruit professional players for the guild's studio? These office elites earn more than four or five thousand a month, so naturally they look down on us who can earn two or three thousand a month with part-time work at night."

"You're mistaken. That's for outer members. If you're a formal member, the base salary is five thousand, and the base salary for elite members is ten thousand. But this time, there are quite a few people being recruited: three hundred outer members, one hundred formal members, and twenty elite members. We might have a chance."

"That's right. I heard that the base salary for core members seems to be fifty thousand. I wonder how much the wages of the eight great experts are."

"I heard that their annual salary is over ten million, because a large consortium offered a sky-high price of eight million, but none of the eight people were tempted. The financial resources of the Zero Wing Guild are simply unimaginable."

The players in the line were discussing, but the elite white-collar worker was a little uneasy. He had gone through so many rounds of interviews and spent so much time, and it took him two or three years to finally get a monthly salary of five thousand. As a result, it was not as good as a formal member with such little competition, and they only needed to work part-time at night. He immediately had the urge to line up.

While Shi Feng was interviewing one player after another on the street, it also attracted the attention of the guests who came to participate in the liaison meeting, especially those large studios in Jinhai City, and some fighting athletes who were preparing to transfer to *God's Domain* for development.

"Hahaha, the Zero Wing Guild is actually here. This liaison meeting was not in vain."

"Zero Wing Guild? Then let's go and chat with that person first. This is a good opportunity for our studio. In the entire Star-Moon Kingdom, I don't know how many people and big consortia want to meet a high-level member of Zero Wing, but they can't. We are really lucky to meet one."
