Some movement in the nearby jungle alerted Nie Yan. He became wary as a player wearing a Light Priest's robes emerged from the trees.

"I'm Hei Se Tiantang (Black Heaven)," Hei Se Tiantang explained, seeing Nie Yan grip his dagger, and walked to Hei Se Diyu (Black Hell)'s side. He never imagined his big brother would lose, because in his mind, his big brother was always powerful and invincible. He couldn't help but size up Nie Yan, the Thief Nie Yan whose name was like thunder in his ears, who was actually around the same age as him.

Because Hei Se Diyu had said earlier that this was a 1v1 and told him not to interfere, he had simply watched from a distance without approaching.

He had seen the PK between Nie Yan and Hei Se Diyu just now, and he had to admit that Nie Yan was indeed very strong, one of the few who could match his big brother. The only puzzling thing was why Nie Yan wasn't controlled even after being hit by Fear Howl.

In such a short amount of time, what exactly did Nie Yan do to become immune to Fear Howl?

Hei Se Tiantang didn't guard against Nie Yan as he began to cast Resurrection on Hei Se Diyu. The bet between Nie Yan and Hei Se Diyu earlier assured him that Nie Yan wouldn't attack him.

A white light slowly gathered in Hei Se Tiantang's palm.

Nie Yan sheathed his dagger and stepped aside, sizing up Hei Se Tiantang, who in his previous life was revered as a legendary Holy Priest.

His face still looked a bit childish, like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old. He wore Priest's robes, and in his hand was a nanmu staff, radiating a faint glow. Nie Yan noticed the emblem on his collar, a golden eagle.

Nie Yan raised an eyebrow. This was the emblem of the Temple of Light. Having this emblem proved that Hei Se Tiantang had learned at least one Holy Magic of the Priest class. Most of the Holy Magic of the Priest class were buffs for teammates, and only later could they learn powerful group resurrection skills.

A Priest who knew Holy Magic!

If Hei Se Tiantang was truly willing to join the Ni Ren (Amazing People) Tribe and work for them, then Nie Yan would have really struck gold. The rarity of a Priest who knew Holy Magic even exceeded that of a Mage who knew advanced magic.

The attack range of Mages was limited. When they needed to cast advanced magic, they had to go to the front lines. Advanced magic generally required at least one set of gestures and incantations, and many even required two or three sets of gestures and incantations to complete. Who knew what would happen during that time? Maybe a Paladin would rush up and silence them with a low-level skill, and the advanced magic would be stopped. Unlike Priests, Priests could completely hide behind or in the middle of the team to cast Holy Magic, greatly increasing their safety. Giving teammates a Holy Magic buff could increase one of their attributes by at least 30%. In the later stages, if they could learn Holy Magic of level six or higher, they could even increase their teammates' combat power by 200%. Even a Warrior with ordinary attributes could immediately become a tank-level powerhouse.

Therefore, Priests who knew Holy Magic were extremely sought after by the major guilds.

If he wanted to win the loyalty of a Priest like Hei Se Tiantang, a simple bet wouldn't be enough.

Let him join the Ni Ren Tribe guild first, Nie Yan thought, and have his subordinates build a good relationship with Hei Se Tiantang. Once they were all on good terms, Hei Se Tiantang would naturally be willing to work for the Ni Ren Tribe. He glanced at Hei Se Diyu on the ground and couldn't help but feel pity. It was a pity that Hei Se Diyu wasn't willing to join the Ni Ren Tribe. Hei Se Diyu's skills were indeed amazing. Those few moves just now used the Shadow Priest's skills to resist Thieves to the peak of perfection. If Nie Yan hadn't reacted quickly, he would definitely have fallen into his hands. This guy was definitely a super expert. This was only the beginning of the game, and such a strong guy was rare. Although Hei Se Diyu was unknown in his previous life, he could be sure that Hei Se Diyu would definitely be a fierce guy in the future. As for why he was hiding his name, he had no idea.

Nie Yan was helpless that Hei Se Diyu was unwilling to leave the Dark Ranger Guild and could only sigh in regret.

A white light fell on Hei Se Diyu, and Hei Se Diyu was resurrected.

Hei Se Diyu woke up and stood up from the ground. Seeing Nie Yan, he said, "I lost. You're very strong." He accepted his defeat openly.

Nie Yan said sincerely, "You too."

"I'll fulfill my promise. The Chapter of Justice is already with you. As for Hei Se Tiantang, I'll have him leave the Dark Ranger Guild and join the Ni Ren Tribe," Hei Se Diyu said.

"Big brother..." Hei Se Tiantang wanted to say something.

Hei Se Diyu waved his hand, interrupting Hei Se Tiantang, and said, "You'll definitely have greater development if you join the Ni Ren Tribe. I'll continue to stay in the Dark Ranger Guild. Anyway, we can still level up together." He had wanted to find a guild for Hei Se Tiantang for a long time. He had originally taken a fancy to the Temple of Kalan because an old friend was there. Later, Nie Yan intervened. It seemed that joining the Temple of Kalan was impossible. The Ni Ren Tribe was also a good choice.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Hei Se Diyu, Hei Se Tiantang had no choice but to give up. He could still see his big brother often even if he joined the Ni Ren Tribe.

"I'm handing Hei Se Tiantang over to your Ni Ren Tribe. I hope you won't mistreat him. Otherwise, no matter how strong the Ni Ren Tribe is, I, Hei Se Diyu, will personally destroy it. I mean what I say." A cold light flashed in Hei Se Diyu's eyes. He definitely had the ability to do so! Although the Dark Ranger Guild had declined, as long as he was willing to come out of seclusion, he could immediately gather a powerful force to destroy the Ni Ren Tribe.

"I never mistreat any of my brothers," Nie Yan said with a faint smile.

Hei Se Diyu was silent and nodded.

"This is your Shadow Robe. I'm returning it to you." Nie Yan tossed the Shadow Robe to Hei Se Diyu.

"I have a question. How did you dodge my Fear Howl just now?" Hei Se Diyu asked. He still didn't understand where he had lost.

"I have a Killer Maniac Medal with a Mental Immunity skill that can immunize me against mind control magic for 3 seconds," Nie Yan explained Hei Se Diyu's confusion.

"No wonder." Hei Se Diyu nodded. So he had lost here. He had to pay attention to this type of skill in future PKs. Nie Yan was able to use such a three-second state skill to nullify his Fear Howl, which was really difficult, because his Fear Howl was 2 seconds. If it was a little bit off, Nie Yan would have been controlled. Thief Nie Yan was not famous for nothing.

At Hei Se Diyu's request, Hei Se Tiantang left the Dark Ranger Guild, and Nie Yan added him to the Ni Ren Tribe.

"If there are any guild activities, you can whisper me." Hei Se Tiantang understood that his big brother was the most trustworthy person, and he couldn't violate his big brother's principles.

Nie Yan nodded and said, "Besides occasionally participating in guild activities, the Ni Ren Tribe doesn't restrict the freedom of its guild members." When there were guild activities in the future, he would bring Hei Se Tiantang along to let him become more familiar with the guild members.

Hei Se Diyu and Hei Se Tiantang said goodbye and left. Looking at Hei Se Diyu's back, Nie Yan couldn't help but sigh. What background did this guy have, why was he so low-key? He was really a mystery.

Fighting Hei Se Diyu gave Nie Yan a lot of feelings. This guy had so many curses, plus a few control skills, making him really difficult to deal with. With Hei Se Diyu's skills, advancing to the ultimate class Shadow Master would definitely be no problem. Nie Yan warned himself that there were still many strong people in Faith. Comprehending the Shadow Dance skill didn't mean that he could dominate the world.

He calmed himself down and checked the attributes of the Chapter of Justice.

Note: This item takes effect when placed in the backpack.

The Chapter of Justice is only effective for Priests.

Looking at his backpack, the five Chapters of Order were neatly placed there. He was still missing the Mage's Chapter of Goodness, and the six chapters of the first volume would be complete.

Nie Yan already knew the exact location of the last chapter, the Chapter of Goodness, but it wouldn't be too late to get it after the Eternal City was upgraded. The Chapter of Goodness was in a level 35 monster area, so there was no need to rush.

"How is your red name reduction coming along?" Nie Yan asked the team members in the team chat.

"Almost done, we should be able to get rid of it by tomorrow at the latest," Sha Bu Si De Huai Dan (Unkillable Bad Egg) said.

"So fast?" Nie Yan was a little surprised. It had taken Tang Yao several days to wash away his red name back then.

"We lured a large group of Scale Frogs here and are grinding the Scale Frog monsters in groups. The red name is disappearing quickly," Bi Lu Sha (Emerald Gauze) explained.

Nie Yan almost forgot that several of the magic-based members had group attack skills. Grinding Scale Frogs in groups would naturally reduce the red name quickly.

Nie Yan and the others stayed at the Scale Frog spawn point for more than a day, and the red names of several members finally disappeared.

One by one, they chose to return to the city and gathered at the teleportation point in Kalore City.

"Is everyone here?" Nie Yan asked in the team chat.

The team members counted the numbers, and Sha Bu Si De Huai Dan said from the side, "Everyone's here."

Nine brothers who participated in the Molten Forest battle, plus Nie Yan, Yao Yao, and Sun, for a total of twelve people.

Nie Yan nodded and said, "Since everyone's here, let's set off. This time our goal is to reach level 30!" It was time to fulfill his promise in the Molten Forest, goal: Eternal City!

The team members cheered excitedly. It was their turn to experience the feeling of leveling up like a rocket.
