Chapter 1 Consumables and Preparations

Nie Yan prepared some consumables in Calore, picking up some potions that might be useful at the Starry Night Pharmacy. He stuffed his bag full of potions that ordinary players couldn't bear to use.

After leaving the Starry Night Pharmacy, he went to the gem artisan and inlaid a few defense gems on the Soaring set, and used a large number of Luck Gems to upgrade the Soaring Set to +5.

Having prepared these things, he headed towards the teleportation array.

At that moment, Shui Se Yan Tou sent Nie Yan a message: "Thank you to all the brothers from the Nirvana Guild for what happened today. If it weren't for you, we would have all been finished in the Twilight Forest, and we wouldn't have been able to explain it to the boss."

Nie Yan smiled faintly and said, "Those who should be thanked have already been thanked."

"We were a little reckless when we withdrew from the Nirvana Guild. I have some things to deal with, so I may not be able to return to the Nirvana Guild today, but at the latest tomorrow, I will bring the brothers from the Fallen Leaves Studio back to the Nirvana Guild," Shui Se Yan Tou said.

"It doesn't matter, the Nirvana Guild welcomes you back, the gates of the Nirvana Guild are always open for you," Nie Yan said. Shui Se Yan Tou's solemn tone made him feel a little strange, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After this incident, Fallen Leaves Studio would definitely not betray the Nirvana Guild.

Nie Yan chatted with Shui Se Yan Tou for a while, hung up the voice call, entered the teleportation array, and teleported to Sonia Town, heading north of Sonia Town.

Sonia Moonlight Glade, the homeland of the White Elves. Later, it became human territory, and the White Elves migrated out of this area on a large scale, but the ruins here were still completely preserved, and later became the habitat of some wild beasts, such as moon bears, etc. They were all level 35 creatures.

This was the area with the densest magic elements. Mages could gain an additional 30% attack bonus when leveling up here, but the creatures here also possessed powerful magical powers. Therefore, even at level 35, most of those who could level up here were very powerful top-tier players.

A faint white glow scattered among the forest. There were still traces of civilized creatures active here.

After these few battles, Nie Yan felt the importance of top-quality equipment more and more. He glanced at the equipment on his body. Apart from the Soaring Set and the Severing Blade, which were fairly decent, the other pieces of equipment could only be considered ordinary. They were obviously not the best. Compared to Nie Yan's identity as the guild leader of the Nirvana Guild, it was a bit shabby.

It was really not an easy task to create a set of divine equipment that he could wear for a long time!

Take it one step at a time.

Start with the Chapter of Order!

Nie Yan entered the forest. Several moon bears appeared in the forest. After these moon bears blessed themselves with magical effects, their combat power was quite astonishing. Although Nie Yan could deal with a few of them, he didn't want to waste time here.

Nie Yan entered stealth mode and went straight to the center of the Sonia Moonlight Glade.

Various magical herbs grew in the Moonlight Glade, but Nie Yan's harvesting skill level was obviously not high enough.

He passed by moon bears one by one. These moon bears were huge white bears with light blue star and moon patterns printed on their chests. Their strong bodies were full of powerful and unmatched strength.

Moon Bear: Level 35, HP 2200/2200.

The most powerful skill of these moon bears was Shock, which could knock back opponents and put them in a stunned state. Ordinary warriors would not dare to fight them head-on without a priest healing them from behind.

Nie Yan followed the traces of the White Elves' activities left around and walked through the forest. He seemed to sense the call of the Chapter of Order. Of course, it was just an illusion. He was getting closer and closer to the last chapter of the Chapter of Order, and he couldn't help but feel excited.

Calore City, St. Fiss Cathedral, residents of Calore City often came here to pray.

Shui Se Yan Tou, wearing a complete set of War God Faith equipment, appeared at the entrance of St. Fiss Cathedral. He walked in and glanced at everyone in the cathedral. He saw rows of seats densely packed in the hall, and in the center sat a player wearing a white decorative robe, about fifty years old. Although he was a bit old, he was still full of energy.

"Boss," Shui Se Yan Tou paid his respects to the old man. Even he had to lower his proud head in front of this old man because of that piece of paper.

This old man was the head of the Tuoba family, Tuoba Hongye, a legendary figure. He founded the Tuoba family and led the Tuoba family to its peak.

"You're here. I heard that you took everyone from Fallen Leaves Studio to cause trouble for Bi Luo Cang Qiong. Do you know the consequences of doing this?" Tuoba Hongye's majestic voice carried a hint of anger.

"I understand."

"Since you understand, why did you still do it?"

"For the sake of my brothers, I had to do it! Although the development of this matter exceeded my expectations," Shui Se Yan Tou stared at Tuoba Hongye without showing any weakness.

"You have to remember that Fallen Leaves Studio is just a studio. The purpose of a studio is just to make money, not to make enemies everywhere," Tuoba Hongye looked at Shui Se Yan Tou coldly. Among all his employees, only Shui Se Yan Tou dared to stare at him like this. His proud and stubborn eyes made Tuoba Hongye very unhappy.

"The purpose of Fallen Leaves Studio is indeed just to make money, but the brothers of Fallen Leaves Studio are not money-making machines. What's more, Fallen Leaves Studio has already completed its business, and everyone is free!" Shui Se Yan Tou said solemnly.

"Your behavior has affected the operation of Fallen Leaves Studio, and I have the right to manage it. Since you have already withdrawn from the Nirvana Guild, you don't have to go back. I just signed a cooperation agreement with Cao Xu of the Century Financial Group. Fallen Leaves Studio will work in the Triumph Empire for a period of time," Tuoba Hongye said. He had tried countless times, but no matter what, he could not tame this proud wild horse, Shui Se Yan Tou.

"Why? We just signed an agreement with the Nirvana Guild. If we breach the contract, we will have to pay a lot of liquidated damages!" Shui Se Yan Tou was stunned for a moment. Asking him to withdraw from the Nirvana Guild and join the Triumph Empire was impossible!

"Cao Xu of the Century Financial Group is willing to pay this liquidated damages. I'm giving you a deadline of tomorrow to enter the Triumph Empire. This is related to the interests of the Tuoba family," Tuoba Hongye said in an unquestionable tone.

"I will not withdraw from the Nirvana Guild, nor will I join the Triumph Empire! Today, the Nirvana Guild saved the brothers of Fallen Leaves Studio. I, Shui Se Yan Tou, will not let down any friend!" Shui Se Yan Tou said. Before coming here, he had already prepared himself to accept Tuoba Hongye's thunderous rage, but he didn't expect that Tuoba Hongye would ask him to withdraw from the Nirvana Guild and join the Triumph Empire, which surprised him a bit.

"You want to disobey my orders? Don't forget your identity." A cold light flashed in Tuoba Hongye's eyes. Shui Se Yan Tou was just an employee under him, daring to talk to him like this!

"I solemnly declare that even if I withdraw from Fallen Leaves Studio, I, Shui Se Yan Tou, will not let down any friend!" Shui Se Yan Tou said without any doubt. If he withdrew from the Nirvana Guild at this time and joined the Triumph Empire, what kind of person would he become!

"According to the contract, if you withdraw from Fallen Leaves Studio within ten years, you will have to pay 50 million in liquidated damages. You have worked hard for five or six years, and the money you have earned is probably only 50 million. And don't forget, without the protection of the Tuoba family, can you, Shui Se Yan Tou, continue to run your studio?" Tuoba Hongye sneered. The cooperation with the Century Financial Group was in the interest of the Tuoba family, so Shui Se Yan Tou had to do it whether he wanted to or not!

"In that case, I can only choose to withdraw from Fallen Leaves Studio and have nothing to do with Fallen Leaves Studio from now on! I will remit the 50 million in liquidated damages to your account. Let me tell you, Tuoba Hongye, even if I am left with nothing, I will not let down a friend!" A cold light flashed in Shui Se Yan Tou's eyes, like a man-eating beast.

"You ungrateful fellow, get out of here." Tuoba Hongye cursed in a rage. He didn't believe that Shui Se Yan Tou could still survive after leaving Fallen Leaves Studio!

Shui Se Yan Tou ignored Tuoba Hongye's roar and walked out of St. Fiss Cathedral, saying faintly, "You don't have to tell me, I will return this set of War God Faith equipment to Fallen Leaves Studio!"

After coming out of St. Fiss Cathedral, Shui Se Yan Tou looked up at the sky and suddenly showed a childlike innocent smile. After carrying so much, it was really easy to let it go. Although he was left with nothing, he at least exchanged it for freedom. It wouldn't be bad to be a freelance player from now on.

He was about to withdraw from Fallen Leaves Studio. He hoped that all the brothers in the past could have a good future.

Shui Se Yan Tou looked at the studio's group chat. These brothers were still excitedly chatting about what happened today, looking forward to returning to the Nirvana Guild.

He really couldn't bear to interrupt, but he still helplessly sent a message in the studio's group chat: "Fallen Leaves Studio cannot join the Nirvana Guild. Today, Tuoba Hongye made a decision and prepared to let Fallen Leaves Studio withdraw from the Nirvana Guild and join the Triumph Empire!"

Shui Se Yan Tou's words caused a stir, arousing the resentment of these brothers.

Leng Feng Jue Jian: "Boss, asking us to withdraw from the Nirvana Guild and join the Triumph Empire, how is that possible!"

Mu En: "Yeah, that would be too unfair to the brothers of the Nirvana Guild!"

Leng Feng Jue Jian and Mu En's words immediately resonated with the players of Fallen Leaves Studio.

"The Tuoba family is cooperating with the Century Financial Group, and one of the conditions is to let Fallen Leaves Studio join the Triumph Empire. I, Shui Se Yan Tou, will not let down any brother, including the Nirvana Guild, so I choose to withdraw from Fallen Leaves Studio. So, goodbye everyone. I hope everyone has a smooth journey and a bright future," Shui Se Yan Tou said. His words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, resounding in the ears of these players.

"Boss, you're crazy. Are you not afraid of the sky-high liquidated damages? You have to pay 50 million for this, which is your total income for five years!" Leng Feng Jue Jian asked in surprise.

"I have nothing, what's there to be afraid of? I won't starve to death with my hands and feet!" Shui Se Yan Tou said with a faint smile. He had seen it through.
