Dark Duel, as the chairman, I have no choice but to take part in it myself!

You Xian doubted whether this sound was the real sound of the emperor penguin.

But it was not a big problem. He had already made several plans for this trip to the Ritual Academy. He would just have to make adjustments based on the specific situation. By the end of the plan, he/she would definitely be able to capture this unknown emperor penguin. By then, let alone his/her true voice, he/she could even force this social phobia to hand out flyers in the red light district.

But before that, You Xian still has to "endure" for a while. After all, his goal this time is not only the bald eagle, other targets are equally important.

"I see, so what's my next job?"

"Your mission is very simple. First of all, since you have captured the chairman of Shenghua, what you need to do is naturally to find a place to put him. Soon someone from the Shining Gathering will come to retrieve him. This should be a simple task for you."

"After completing the transaction, you can tour the ruins. It seems that there are many dangerous people from other forces hiding in this place."

"Find them out and get rid of them later. This includes the Shining Gathering that we traded with. If they are still active in this place after a period of time... you should know what I mean."

"Yes, I understand. But I am only one person after all. If I find a force far beyond my strength..."

"Then come to me, and I will arrange for someone to assist you. The bald eagle should be back soon, and I will ask her to help you then."

At this point, the emperor penguin felt annoyed again. If the toucan hadn't betrayed him, he should have been the one to do this job, but now... the damn traitor! If he could find a chance, he had to kill the toucan, so that he could ease the hatred in his heart a little.

Putting these thoughts in his mind for the time being, Emperor Penguin instructed his loyal subordinates:

"As for the rest, you don't have to worry about it. Mockingbird will arrange everything."

"But before that...As much as I want to believe you, we all have to be more cautious because of the toucan's betrayal."

"So, now show me the deck you got from Shenghua's chairman. Since you successfully caught him, you should have got his deck as well, right?"

"of course."

You Xian, who was well prepared, took out his own deck and waved it in front of the gate, so that the other party could clearly see the top card of the deck, [A Ruined Pearl World in One Life]. This meant that the card in the hand of this 'Mr. Ostrich' was indeed the Pearl Tears Elegy Clan of Chairman Shenghua.

Then the emperor penguin's satisfactory answer came from the basement:

"Very good, you didn't disappoint me. You are completely different from that damned traitor Toucan."

"Go, complete your mission. Our Journey with the Wind will soon enter a new phase, and everyone will undergo a transformation."

"Yes, at your will, Chief."

You Xian nodded with a forced smile, and after reporting his work and getting the authority he wanted, he slowly left the basement and returned to his car - his plan officially began.

=====================Dividing line=================

The place that Youxian chose for the "transaction" was an empty wasteland. Perhaps it was once a prosperous area of ​​the Ritual Academy, but now it has become a ruin. The ruins of the towering buildings are scattered, bricks and tiles have collapsed, and windows are broken. Weeds are spreading from every crack and hole. They have always been despised, but they have become the only life force of this academy.

Up to now, Youxian had been following normal procedures - he wanted to see with his own eyes what the hidden existence of the Shining Gathering that Shul had mentioned before was.

He was also very curious about why the mysterious creature wanted to capture him.

But he was destined to be disappointed this time, because the person who came to receive the 'cargo' was not the mysterious creature at all but an ordinary member wearing the clothing of the Shining Assembly.

Although You Xian had never sent his location information to anyone, he still easily found the car where You Xian's "Chairman of Shenghua" was locked up.

It seemed that he had no intention of confirming the authenticity of the "goods". After finding the things, this dark duelist planned to leave.

It's a pity that You Xian, who had been hiding in the dark, couldn't just watch himself being taken away.

So he finally stepped out from the darkness, stared at the other party with sharp eyes, and said righteously: "Stop! Do you want to take away the goods we found with great difficulty before paying?"

This sudden development naturally confused the members of the Shining Assembly for a moment, but they quickly realized what was happening to them.

"We have already paid the reward. It is in the hands of your leader, the Emperor Penguin. If you want the reward, you should go to the Emperor Penguin."

"Wrong, that was just what we thought before. After Suifeng Piaopiaoyou reconsidered, we felt that the previous reward was too little. The chairman of Shenghua is much more difficult to deal with than we imagined. His strength is far beyond what is matched by that price."

"So our leader, the Emperor Penguin, thinks that the corresponding reward should be at least doubled to be reasonable. You can't take the things away before the reward is handed over to me."

After confirming that there were no other people around to monitor him, You Xian immediately started to make a big request.

He certainly didn't expect the Shining Gathering and the mysterious existence hidden behind it to drop gold coins. Anyway, his goal had been achieved the moment he spoke.

"? You guys are just asking for too much!"

"That's true, but we are a monopoly business. We are the only one who has the chairman of Shenghua. If you, the Shining Assembly, want to get him, you have to pay enough. Otherwise, we would rather give him to the Super Academy next door than give him to you."

You Xian chuckled twice in a low voice, looking like he had already defeated his opponent, just like the villains in those stories who would be beaten up by the protagonist in no time.

However, perhaps God finally couldn't stand it anymore, or perhaps someone deliberately arranged it, and while the blackmail was still going on, the voice of a third person suddenly appeared.

"Huh? Suifeng Piaopiaoyou is so arrogant? You're even asking for a higher price? I'm afraid you guys are a little confused about your own status."

This time the sound came from the trunk of a large tree not far away. When the 'recipient' of the Shining Assembly looked in that direction, he discovered that there was actually a person standing there.

So in the next second, the poor 'recipient' made a sound full of surprise.

"Chief! I didn't expect you to come in person."

That's right, he was definitely not mistaken. This was the leader of their Shining Assembly. Not long ago, he entered the world created by the leader in his dream and listened to a meeting there.

Originally he was still thinking about how to deal with Suifeng Piaopiaoyou who was raising the price, but now that the leader is here, he doesn't have to worry at all.

This is a strong man who can easily defeat the chairman of the Duel Academy. It shouldn't be a simple matter for him to deal with a small cadre of the Dark Duelist Organization, right?

"who are you?"

Trying hard to look prepared for battle, You Xian stared closely at the Narcissus mermaid standing on the tree, who had transformed from the president of the Shining Assembly.

Chapter 189 I've had enough of this red tape!

In this wasteland, a middle-aged man stood on the solid ground, his face full of traces of time, his wrinkled face revealed a kind of perseverance and vicissitudes. His eyes were firm, revealing an unfathomable determination, as if he was an old tree that had experienced countless wind and rain baptisms.

There is no doubt that his identity comes from the ostrich that floats in the wind. Or, in other words, the Youxian disguised as an ostrich.

Not far from him, on a big tree, stood a hooded man, wearing a dark cloak with only a pair of sharp eyes. His posture was elegant and steady, but for some reason he exuded a murderous aura that could evoke the deepest fear in people's hearts just by looking at him.

As for his identity, the recipient of the Shining Assembly had already revealed it, and it was the president of the Shining Assembly. Or rather, the Narcissus mermaid who played the role of the president.

In this cold wind of late autumn, these two seemingly hostile forces have collided with each other, and even the air around them has become tense.

The only recipient at the scene who was completely in the dark was watching the scene nervously, as if worried that a real conflict would arise between the two.

Yes, this is the first step of Youxian's plan - to use the information gap to completely confuse the situation and let the major forces "find" their opponents.

The two most powerful forces now exposed to You Xian's vision are Suifeng Piaopiaoyou and Shining Assembly. In addition to several cadres, Suifeng Piaopiaoyou also has a large number of low-level members, the so-called "miscellaneous birds". They may not have such powerful strength, but they have absolute numerical advantage.

In addition to being more convenient in gathering intelligence, these low-level members can also use their numerical advantage to surround high-level duelists and temporarily delay these people.

If the number of counterattacks on both sides is really that different, perhaps the opponent can be exhausted to death.

Of course, this rule didn't apply to Youxian. Having experienced the oppression of the Pearl Tears Sorrow Tribe, Youxian had long been immune to this level of protracted warfare. Anyway, he didn't have to spend magic power and energy to replenish the magic of the mermen girls, so dealing with those small fish was basically a matter of sprinkling water.

As for the Shining Assembly, due to the humiliating defeat at the Synchronicity Academy last time, they have lost a considerable number of their low-level members.

After that, they were frequently attacked by killers who appeared out of nowhere, so that not only did their numbers drop drastically, but their mental state was also very bad.

No one can forget about a killer who may appear next to them and kill them at any time, not to mention that this killer is a powerful duelist himself.

There is no doubt that the power of The Shining Assembly and Suifeng Piaopiaoyou is unequal at this moment. The Shining Assembly, which lacks grassroots personnel, is likely to be overwhelmed by the opponent's human wave tactics.

But fortunately, the loss of mid-to-high-end combat power in the last Synchro Academy was not too many, and even their president managed to escape successfully, so the Shining Group still has enough powerful strength left. If they can gather together, they may not lose to Suifeng Piaopiaoyou - at least that's what they thought.

Now You Xian's idea is to let the two fight each other, and it would be best if they both died, so that he can reap the benefits. Of course, this is also the most ideal situation.

You Xian has already prepared his own plan for this. As long as everything goes well, You Xian will be able to achieve the perfect ending.

With his head half lowered, You Xian's mouth corners curled up in a strange arc where the members of The Shining Assembly could not see, which meant that he was about to start his acting career again.

However, before Youxian starts his performance, he still has to wait for his card elf to start.

As for the Narcissus mermaid, it was naturally impossible for her to disappoint him. In order to make the "performance" as perfect as possible, they even rehearsed the lines in advance, and they knew exactly when to speak and when to shut up.

"The one who floats with the wind, huh? I am the president of the Shining Gathering, the man who truly stands at the top of the duel."

"The president of the Shining Assembly? Humph, isn't this the man who was defeated miserably by the chairman of Shenghua? How dare you disobey me who has already defeated the chairman of Shenghua!"

Trying his best to play the role he was supposed to play, You Xian raised his head and showed a look of disdain on his face at the right time.

"How stupid! Do you think that luck can decide everything? He is just lucky. Otherwise, how can he be my opponent?"

Perhaps because of the saying "Birds of a feather flock together", the Narcissus mermaid unexpectedly had some flavor when she acted, which even made You Xian begin to doubt whether his own card elves had inherited this unique talent.

However, there are some shortcomings in the performance of Narcissus Mermaid. For some reason, You Xian can always see an inexplicable excitement in her, as if he is not trying to play the role of a powerful and arrogant dark duelist leader, but instead seems to be playing an interesting game.

"Tell your leader to get out of this place immediately, and return all the cards that you 'stole' from The Shining Assembly."

"Otherwise, I will lead the Shining Gathering to flatten this place myself, and let you know what will happen if you defy the will of the Shining Gathering."

Perhaps because she was too immersed in the role, the Narcissus mermaid actually had a bit of solemnity in her voice when she spoke, which in turn made the recipient beside her excited.

Their invincible president is here to show his strength! The president insulted Suifeng Piaopiaoyou. The president is invincible!

As for You Xian, who was still maintaining his own persona, he had to pour some cold water on the other party on the surface, so he laughed twice:

"Haha, I don't believe it."

"Foolish, since you want to die, I will generously grant your wish. You will die, and you will die here."

This casual attitude seemed to have finally annoyed the 'President'. His eyes fixed, and his face showed a hint of bloodiness and madness.

The atmosphere around them became increasingly tense. Both sides seemed like the Pearly Tear Elegy tribe about to engage in a civil war, each thinking of building a sewer first to completely crush their opponent.

However, the 'President' did not start a fight directly. He first cast his gaze in the direction of the Shining Assembly member: "You leave first and tell the others that Suifeng Piaopiaoyou is raising the price. Let them prepare for a full-scale decisive battle with Suifeng Piaopiaoyou."

"I will handle this personally. After I defeat this arrogant guy, I will take the chairman of Shenghua back with me."

Although that is what they say, the person who goes to the Shining gathering will actually just be a Narcissus mermaid. The so-called Chairman of Shenghua is also disguised as something else. If the people at the Shining gathering really check it out, they will most likely be able to find some clues.

But it's not a big problem, Youxian just wants to be a war priest. Don't worry about the other things, just fight hard.jpg

"Yes, President! I will go back and report it right away. As for this side, please be careful."

After receiving the order, the member of the Shining Assembly ran out immediately and planned to help his companions prepare for battle.

Today, he was lucky to have his guild leader show up suddenly, otherwise he could almost imagine his miserable situation. Although he could be considered a middle-level or senior member of the Shining Gathering, compared with the few cadres in the entire Suifeng Piao Piao Tour...

I'm afraid it's like using bows and crossbows to fight against a modern reinforced company.

However, he did not notice that the atmosphere between the two people who were originally in confrontation suddenly became relaxed shortly after he left.

The tense situation at the beginning was instantly resolved, and their "Chairman" sat next to the "Flowing with the Wind" cadre not long after. There was no sign of hostility in their intimate manner.

"Well done. I thought you'd be a little nervous since it was your first time doing something like this, but I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

You Xian patted the Narcissus mermaid's shoulder with satisfaction, and his original arrogant demeanor had long since melted into a gentle smile.

The Narcissus Mermaid really satisfied him. If someone else came, they might not be able to play that role well. Although the president of the Shining Assembly was beaten up by him once and was still locked in his basement, the strong aura and domineering aura on him were not fake at all.

"This isn't a difficult thing to do, but...what if the mysterious being hidden in the Shining Gathering discovers something is wrong and stops the duelists in the Shining Gathering?"

The Narcissus mermaid hesitated for a moment, but still directly raised her concerns.

You Xian has indeed basically taken control of The Shining Assembly, but there is a bomb planted in that organization. At least the recipient who appeared today is enough to prove that the bomb still has the ability to control The Shining Assembly to a certain extent.

If that is the case, it would be questionable whether the people in the Shining Assembly would still follow You Xian's instructions in the end.

The Narcissus Mermaid did enjoy having fun, but that didn't include Youxian getting screwed over in this kind of thing.

Originally, in her opinion, the most interesting things were the three girls in Shenghua. If something could happen between these three, it would definitely produce an interesting chemical reaction.

But neither Sophia nor Iris seemed to have any reason to come here, and she and her master were busy with more important things, so they had to postpone this matter.

You Xian, who still didn't know what the Narcissus Mermaid was thinking, shook his head:

"It's not a big problem. That guy has been hiding behind the scenes. Even Shule discovered his existence by accident."

"From the perspective of how much importance the Shining Assembly places on Shule, he should be considered one of the core members. After all, after Shule was captured, this group actually found someone to rescue Shule, but other people didn't get this treatment."

“Since even Shule is not qualified to know the true identity of this thing, then it is very likely that only the real president or a very few people can vaguely perceive the secret of this guy.”

"That is to say, the vast majority of the entire Shining Assembly had no idea that such a thing existed, let alone obeying its orders. The person who came to receive the package probably received special instructions, so he got involved in this matter."

"If that mysterious being really intends to appear in reality and cause some trouble, then the 'President' of the Shining Assembly can teach it the truth that 'my subordinates' are not my subordinates'."

At this point, You Xian chuckled twice again: "A mysterious creature with almost no presence and a president who has always been at the top of the organization and just used his power not long ago, it goes without saying which side the people of the Shining Assembly will choose."

"What's more, by then, even if they don't want to fight against Suifeng Piaopiaoyou, they won't be able to do so."

"Master, you mean..."

"Yes, it's time for our plan to officially move to the next step."

Looking at the little face of the mermaid girl, You Xian's smile became brighter - it was a smile that symbolized a good harvest.

"Chief, something happened!"
