The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 43: The Idea of ​​Forming a Team, Ye Xiu and Mo Qian's Nervousness—

"You guys—really—"

Chen Guo's eyes involuntarily welled up with tears. Her heart was filled not with sadness, but with overwhelming emotion. Whether Ye Xiu and Mo Qian were the God of Battle and the Sword Immortal was no longer important to her.
Now, Ye Xiu and Mo Qian are simply Chen Guo's good friends, her closest friends.

"Old Ye, don't steal my vegetables! Hey, hey, hey? You're using all that speed you have on the field here, aren't you—"

Mo Qian tightly guarded her small bowl. Ye Xiu and Mo Qian had very similar tastes, so Ye Xiu had often secretly stolen food from Mo Qian's bowl.

Mo Qian swatted away Ye Xiu's outstretched chopsticks again, looking at Ye Xiu with a hint of helplessness.

Ye Xiu scratched his head awkwardly, then sat up straight and said:

"Old Mo, when did you see me make a move? Do you have any proof? Hehe."

Su Mucheng watched Mo Qian and Ye Xiu, this pair of bickering lovers, with amusement. Their relationship had always been like this—not brothers, but closer than brothers. Su Mucheng remembered that Ye Xiu used to be quite shy, but after hanging out with Su Muqiu and Mo Qian…
Within three days, Ye Xiu's shameless nature was exposed. He used to steal food from Mu Qiu and Mo Qian's bowls all the time, and he still does it now. This habit of his has been maintained by Ye Xiu ever since.

"Great God Mu Cheng, were they like this before?"

Chen Guo looked at Ye Xiu and Mo Qian fighting over food and asked in disbelief.

Su Mucheng was still a little nervous when she saw Chen Guo, and smiled:

"Guoguo, just call me Mucheng, you don't need to call me 'Great God' like that, it sounds weird. Don't worry about them, they've always been like this—"

Su Mucheng still had some memories, but one person was missing: a former sharpshooting champion.

After a pleasant meal, Su Mucheng had to rush to the club for training, since they still had to play in the regular season—although Excellent Era's performance was really declining, and no one knew what to do. A strange atmosphere surrounded Excellent Era. After Ye Xiu and Mo Qian left, Su Mucheng no longer felt any real attachment to the place.
Before leaving, Mu Cheng thoughtfully gave Chen Guo a big hug, making up for the short time she had given Chen Guo a hug on stage. Then she walked over to Mo Qian's side.
Mu Cheng originally wanted to whisper in Mo Qian's ear, but unfortunately, Mo Qian was still too tall for her. Even when she stood on tiptoe, she couldn't reach his ear.

"Hmm—" Mu Cheng pouted slightly, looking incredibly cute.

"Idiot, can't you just lower your head?" Mu Cheng thought to herself. Mo Qian seemed to sense her thoughts, lowered his head, brought his ear close to Mu Cheng's face, and twitched his ear slightly.

"Go ahead and speak, Mu Cheng. Don't worry, they can't hear you." Mo Qian thought Mu Cheng wanted to whisper something to him.

Unexpectedly, Mu Cheng ran away immediately and shouted loudly at Mo Qian and Ye Xiu:
"I'll be waiting for you—"

Mu Cheng ran very fast, leaving Mo Qian and Ye Xiu somewhat confused. Perhaps only the moon in the sky noticed Mu Cheng's bright red little ears. "Let's wait until later to tell him that—hehe."

"So, you really are Sword Immortal Mo Qian and Battle God Ye Xiu!"

When Chen Guo and the others returned to the hotel, Chen Guo couldn't wait to lock Mo Qian and Ye Xiu in the room. Today, Chen Guo was going to take down Mo Qian and Ye Xiu—no, I mean, interrogate Ye Xiu and Mo Qian.
"Boss, didn't we already tell you? But you didn't believe a word of it back then..."

Ye Xiu looked at Chen Guo with a hint of resentment. At that time, Chen Guo had said righteously:

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Now, Chen Guo was finally hit in the forehead by the bullet from the past. Somewhat embarrassed, she touched her head, her eyes darting around, tilting her head and saying nonchalantly:
"Ahem, when did this happen? I don't remember. Hey? Little Tang, do you remember?"

Even a refined young lady like Tang Rou was amused by Chen Guo's antics, covering her mouth and giggling. Her laughter was clear and melodious.
"Guoguo, stop teasing them. Didn't you have something to say to Mo Qian and the others?"

Tang Rou felt that if she didn't remind Chen Guo soon, the conversation might go off-topic, so getting Chen Guo back on track was the right thing to do.

"Ahem, yes." Chen Guo finally remembered her true purpose and looked at Ye Xiu and Mo Qian with a serious expression.
Ye Xiu and Mo Qian both felt a little insecure under Chen Guo's gaze, with the nervousness of being caught by a high school teacher. They sat upright like children, waiting for Chen Guo's questioning.

"you--"

Both Ye Xiu and Mo Qian swallowed hard. Was Chen Guo really going to kill them to silence them? It couldn't be that bad—Ye Xiu and Mo Qian had only lied to Chen Guo for a few months, and it couldn't even be called lying, because everything they said was true; Chen Guo just didn't believe them.

"When are you guys coming back? When are you forming a team?"

Ye Xiu and Mo Qian collapsed onto the sofa. Chen Guo had created such a tense atmosphere that Ye Xiu and Mo Qian thought they were about to be fired by their boss, but it turned out she had only asked such a simple question.

"Old Ye, shall we speak or you?" Mo Qian gestured to Ye Xiu.

"I told you, Lao Mo, boss, let's start with the Challenger Series when the one-year contract termination period is up, and take the championship step by step!"

Chen Guo nodded in agreement. In her eyes, the combination of the Sword Immortal and the Battle God should definitely take the championship. How glorious Excellent Era used to be!
