Chapter 87: Hurry Back, or Your Girl’s Going to Be Taken!

Despite Infinite Overlord's reluctance, a loss was a loss. With so many people watching, he had no room to deny it.

Infinite Overlord gritted his teeth and said, "Fine. I lost, and I'll accept it."

Under his command, the Infinite Guild members stationed outside the northern gate reluctantly stepped aside, allowing Misty Rain Pavilion's members to leave.

But when the professionals from Supreme and War God Guilds tried to follow, they were blocked again!

"What's the meaning of this? Didn't you say you'd honor the terms?" War God Judgement demanded.

Infinite Overlord shrugged indifferently. "I agreed that if she beat me, I'd let her guild, Misty Rain Pavilion, go. What does that have to do with Supreme or War God Guilds?"

"Unbelievable!" Liu Yao pointed at him, his face red with anger. "I've seen shameless, but you take it to a new level. You're the vice-president of Infinite Guild, acting so pathetic! Losing to a girl and then pulling stunts like this—don't you have any dignity?"

Su Jingyan turned to Infinite Overlord, frowning slightly. "So, what will it take for you to let them go too?"

"A rematch." Infinite Overlord held up a finger and smiled slyly. "Every time you beat me, I'll let one guild go."

"If you lose, you're my girlfriend."

At that moment, the members of Supreme and War God Guilds could only place their hopes in Su Jingyan.

A few Misty Rain Pavilion members urged her, "President, don't worry about the other two guilds. If you slip up and lose, it wouldn't be worth it!"

After a brief hesitation, Su Jingyan addressed Infinite Overlord. "Fine, I'll agree."

"But that's it for today. We'll fight again tomorrow."

"And one more thing—until our next match, you won't interfere with the other two guilds."

Seeing her agree to his terms, Infinite Overlord grinned broadly. "Alright, no problem!"

"Tomorrow night, same time, same place. Don't leave me hanging," he said, giving her a wink so exaggerated it nearly made Liu Yao lose his dinner. Then, Infinite Overlord and his guild members collectively logged off.

The members of Supreme and War God Guilds let out a collective sigh of relief.

Liu Yao approached Su Jingyan, almost looking like a scolded child. "Sorry, sis-in-law. You had to take another risk for us…"

War God Judgement, the War God Guild leader, also spoke up, "We owe you one for this, Miss Su."

"There are still two fights left," Su Jingyan said, her gaze reflecting a hint of concern. "If I can win those, then we'll talk about favors."

Earlier, Infinite Overlord had been too careless.

But Su Jingyan wasn't confident she could keep defeating him.

With her limited skills, maintaining a perfect chain of control required extreme focus and precision. Any slip-up could turn the tide and cost her the battle.

Still, the three guilds were granted a day of freedom.

While Infinite Guild left them alone, they seized the opportunity to level up like mad!

When the next evening arrived, Infinite Overlord appeared right on time, ready for a second match with Su Jingyan.

This time, he wasn't careless, putting everything he had into the fight.

Yet, to his shock, he still lost to her!

As he watched the members of the three guilds leave the safe zone to resume their grinding, Infinite Overlord's face twisted with frustration.

An archer from Infinite Guild, Infinite Arrow, suggested, "Vice-President, should we just block them like before?"

"A man keeps his word!" Infinite Overlord replied. "Now I see it—her only strength lies in her control skills."

"If I can break her control chain, I'll have her at my mercy!"

He turned to Infinite Arrow and added, "Go, and in my name, contact Tianjing's top blacksmith from the Tian family. Tell them to rush me an anti-control piece of equipment by tomorrow night!"

"Actually, better use our guild master's name instead…"

"Yes, Vice-President!"

---

Meanwhile, the three guilds headed out to the wilds together.

On the way, a member from War God Guild spoke up excitedly, "If Miss Su wins one more time, Infinite Guild will have to pull out for good!"

Noticing the trace of worry on Su Jingyan's face, Liu Yao said with a laugh, "Relax, sis-in-law! You've already won twice—tomorrow's final round will be a sure victory!"

"That last round wasn't easy," Su Jingyan replied. "I have a feeling the next one will be tougher. Infinite Overlord's figured out my strategies."

After a pause, she glanced sideways at Liu Yao, raising a delicate eyebrow. "And who's your 'sis-in-law,' exactly?"

Liu Yao grinned, "Well, Zhang Yue's my big brother, so you're my sis-in-law, right?"

If it had been anyone else, Su Jingyan would have given them an earful.

But when it came to Zhang Yue, her cheeks blushed slightly.

A Misty Rain Pavilion member then remarked, "Come to think of it, where's that beast tamer, Zero? Haven't seen him around for days."

"Maybe he's laying low and leveling up somewhere, avoiding Infinite Guild's wrath?"

"Yeah, that makes sense. No way he wouldn't have noticed the commotion we've been causing."

"If he were here, we'd have a real chance at pushing Infinite Guild back. He's so strong, and with our three guilds backing him, they wouldn't stand a chance!"

Su Jingyan was silent for a moment before replying, "Zhang Yue isn't part of our guilds. He has no obligation to involve himself in this."

The three guilds then arrived in the wilderness, continuing their grind for levels and resources.

Before they knew it, the time for the final duel had come.

At the same time, same place…

Infinite Overlord was already waiting in the Light Hall, and the crowd of onlookers had brought out their "front-row seats" early.

Right on time, Su Jingyan appeared.

With his spear resting on his shoulder, Infinite Overlord flashed her a cocky grin. "Once this duel's over, you'll officially be my girlfriend. So calling you 'wifey' in advance isn't too much, right?"

Su Jingyan frowned and replied coolly, "Let's just start."

Just like before, Su Jingyan focused intently, carefully predicting his moves as she cast her spells.

Boom!

A Fireball crashed down from above, hitting Infinite Overlord squarely and freezing him in place.

For a brief moment, Su Jingyan relaxed.

But then, barely half a second later, Infinite Overlord broke free from the control and charged forward with his spear!

At that moment, she was in the middle of casting and had no time to dodge.

He lunged forward, his spear thrusting directly at her arm!

The strike dealt a staggering 1325 damage, instantly wiping out half of her health.

Blood trickled down her arm, and Infinite Overlord chuckled mockingly, "Did that hurt, wifey?"

Ignoring him, Su Jingyan flashed away to create some distance.

Boom!

A Glimmer spell hit Infinite Overlord, locking him in place again.

But once again, he broke free after only half a second!

Only then did Su Jingyan realize that his armor was different from before.

He had changed his equipment to something that resisted control effects!

With her control chain broken, Su Jingyan quickly found herself at a disadvantage.

As soon as her spells were spent, Infinite Overlord darted forward, his spear sweeping out in a half-hearted strike to her slender waist. Instantly, her health dropped to a single point.

Infinite Overlord grinned smugly. "You've lost, wifey."

The members of all three guilds stood frozen in shock.

In a panic, Liu Yao quickly sent a Fly-Message to Zhang Yue: "Bro, if you don't get back here now, your girl's gonna get taken!!!"
