Chapter 115: Impending Crisis?
Watching Li Wei with a puzzled face and checking himself, everyone became stunned, not knowing what he is thinking.
"Brother Li, how are you feeling? Do you know everyone was worried about you?" Lily muttered with a cute pout.
Hearing her, Li Wei smiled.
"Lily, I am alright, and thanks for your care," he replied, patting her head and glanced at everyone.
"You all don't need to worry; I am alright," he assured everyone with a smile, but he was still feeling a faint headache.
Looking at him still smiling, Li Xin became relieved.
"Brother, just what happened? Weren't you trying to form a connection with spirits? Why did it become such a big commotion?" she asked with a puzzled face.
Hearing her, Li Wei nodded and explained what happened. However, he didn't tell them about what he saw after he fainted.
Li Xin and others became shocked and felt a chill on their back after hearing him, because he spent 500k MP to do this.
If this much amount of MP goes out of control, half of the city would've turned into dust.
But they didn't blame him as it wasn't his fault. Also, if he didn't provide this much MP, who knows what would've happened to him.
Knowing this, they all felt fear, while Li Xin, Li Yin, and Lily glared at him simultaneously.
"Ahem, XinXin, it's already dinner time. Did you order it? I am hungry," Li Wei said, changing the topic.
"Humph, I ordered it. Let's go," Li Xin replied with a snort as she made her way to the dinner table with everyone.
"Brother Li, did you form a connection with spirits?" Elva asked curiously at the dinner table.
However, Li Wei smiled wryly, shaking his head.
"I don't know if I formed a connection or not, but I can feel the spirits more clearly than before," he replied with a sigh.
When he was inside the unknown dark space, the colourful strings of mana revolved around endlessly, and before he could figure out what happened, he was already awake and didn't feel any connection to spirits.
Elva and others became stunned after listening to him.
"Anyway, let's eat. Are you going out tomorrow?" Li Wei asked, changing the topic again.
"Brother, I was planning to go, but not anymore," Li Xin replied instantly, looking at him with a cold expression.
'If I don't keep an eye on him, who knows what he will do next time,' she thought with irritation as her cold eyes fixated on him.
"Ugh, XinXin, I am not some heinous criminal. Why are you looking at me like this?" Li Wei muttered unwillingly, feeling her piercing gaze.
"Humph, you better know yourself," Li Xin snorted coldly and continued to eat dinner, her cold expression not changing a little.
Watching her like this Li Wei let out a bitter smile.
'Looks like this week will be hard,' he thought, knowing why she was this irritated and started to think about how to soothe her.
As the dinner continued in silence, Alice, who was eating, suddenly thought of something.
"Brother Li, do you know a hero appeared in the city, and it's that guy who we met in the forest?" she informed him.
"Huh, that guy?" Li Wei became puzzled, not knowing who she was talking about, when it suddenly clicked in his mind.
"You mean Bai Feng; he became a hero?" he asked with surprise, but his eyes remained calm.
"Yes, Brother Li, that Bai Feng became a hero, and he might be coming to the party too," Alice nodded, explaining to him.
"Interesting, he even became a hero," Li Wei murmured with a smile.
Watching him like this, Li Xin felt puzzled and thought of something.
"Brother, do you know he was castrated by someone before becoming a hero?" she said, looking at him with doubt.
She knew his clone was in the north plane, and he got a diamond chest from some idiot. She couldn't rule out the possibility that it might be done by him.
"XinXin, why are you looking at me like that, and isn't it great that he was castrated?" Li Wei replied with a puzzled expression while laughing inside.
'Hehe, I have left no clues,' he muttered in his mind while maintaining his puzzled face.
Looking at him, Li Xin didn't doubt him anymore. Not to mention, even if it was him, she wouldn't care.
But Li Wei didn't want her to know because in this new world, he will definitely encounter many arrogant young masters.
He can't kill them, but he could do a certain job if they tried to harass anyone in his party.
"Brother Li, aren't you afraid of him now? He is a hero, and I think he isn't a good guy when we first met him, so he might do something at the party," Alice mentioned, watching his calm eyes.
However, his calmness still remained even after hearing her.
"Alice, why do you worry so much? It's just a little guy, and let me tell you, it's a very good thing that he became a hero," Li Wei replied with a smirk making Li Xin stunned.
"Brother, why did you say it's a good thing? He will definitely create trouble for us with his dirty personality," Li Xin asked with a puzzled and worried face.
Li Wei chuckled, and ruffled her hair.
"XinXin, now my fake status skill is level 200. With that, no one will be able to see through me and my clone."
"With that, I can morph myself into him to buy the coin cards. Not to mention, we can also use our plan of brainwashing on him," Li Wei explained, trying to think how to brainwash him.
"Brother Li, it's not our plan; it's yours," Alice remarked with a pout.
"Yes, Alice is right; it's your plan, brother, not ours. Don't drag us inside your evil plans," Li Xin replied, agreeing with Alice.
Li Wei became speechless; nevertheless, he continued to think of a way to brainwash him while continuing the dinner.
…
As they were talking about Bai Feng, he too was thinking about them in the small house gifted by the kingdom.
"Brother Feng, are we going to the party?" Zu Tian asked with an irritated expression.
The invitation to the party was delivered by a servant. If he was just a normal person, it would be alright, but now he was a hero; the host should come personally to give the invitation.
Bai Feng also wore an ugly face when he heard her, and his eyes flashed coldly.
"Of course, we will go. It's from the owner of All-in-one shop, and isn't Li Xin close with the daughter of the owner? So, she will definitely go; we can't miss this chance," he replied, gritting his teeth.
"Brother Feng, are you planning to do something at the party?" Chu Zhi inquired watching his angry face.
Hearing him, Bai Feng nodded.
"Yes, it's a good thing that a party is happening, where I can show off my hero status building impression, not to mention, it's the best place to make Li Xin mine. You just have to do what I say," he said and started to talk about his plan at the party.
…
However, he wasn't the only one who was thinking about doing something at the party.
Inside the city, in an unknown room, Zek and Mark looked at the ten invitation cards of the party placed on the table.
"Zek, you are really good with this; you can even get this many invitation cards just by asking someone," Mark praised him after knowing his ability.
"Don't worry about this; you can also do it in the future," Zek replied with a smile and continued.
"I also got the information of the person who killed the evil wolf. They are an unofficial party named Order of the Abyss, and their leader is Li Wei from the new world," he informed, making Mark shocked.
"What? From the new world? Are you saying he was the one who defeated it?" Mark asked with an unbelievable expression.
However, Zek shook his head.
"No, it's probably not him. I suspect it's the hero who did this because he was out too on the same day, so there are high chances it's him," he replied with the answer he came up with after thinking for a while.
"So it's like this; no wonder they were able to kill the evil wolf. But how are we going to take revenge? There are probably knights protecting the hero in secret," Mark inquired with irritation.
However, Zek chuckled hearing this.
"You don't need to worry about this; as I said before, a few higher-ups will be coming here, and they will take care of troublesome work. What we have to do is clean some ants," he explained with a smirk.
"So are we going to attack when the party starts?" Mark inquired again.
However, Zek shook his head.
"I don't know about this, but the higher-ups asked me to prepare for everything, so we might or might not attack. It will depend on the situation, as the priestess is here with her legion too," he replied and started to talk about what to do next.
