It was difficult to say if Wei Xiao was a demon or not, but the fact that they were unable to chop him to death was definitely true.
Seeing that the two people’s skills were about to land again, Wei Xiao first used connecting clouds to push away the power thief’s roundhouse kick, then turned his body to the side to avoid the bold and resolute skill. At the same time, he used landing on clouds on the power thief, cutting down a quarter of his health.
The power thief didn’t take this damage seriously at all. He first used his ground stab, which had come off cooldown, and forced Wei Xiao to shift positions. Then, the berserker warrior cooperated with tacit understanding and raised up his double axes over his head, causing the ground to shake with his force.
These two skills were powerful control skills. As long as they hit Wei Xiao, he would immediately enter a dizzy state.
When that happened, he wouldn’t even be able to think about avoiding the next attacks.
The power thief’s third skill ‘double-edged sword’, and the berserker warrior’s ‘crazy dive’ were both damage dealing skills.
If they were really allowed to use them, then he would basically be broken into two halves.
To Wei Xiao’s left was the ground stab, and to the right was the double axe earthquake. The power thief was in front of him, and the berserker warrior was behind him. There was no escape from the attacks that came from all sides.
If he stood still and didn’t move, he would be hit by the power thief’s double-edged sword.
This power thief skill was very powerful. According to the game logic, the power thief didn’t use weapons. The damage he dealt all relied on his fists and physical ability. He was a man with an excellent physique.
However, his third skill was called the double-edged sword. The ‘sword’ named in this skill wasn’t a real sword, but rather, it represented the meaning of the skill.
Double-edged sword––
If it hit the enemy, it would deal a high amount of damage. But if it didn’t hit the target, the player themselves would suffer 50% of the damage.
In other words, if the power thief’s attack hit Wei Xiao, then Wei Xiao would be beaten into low health. However, if Wei Xiao avoided it, then 50% of the attack would rebound and harm the power thief instead.
This was a high-risk, high-reward skill. It was also the power thief’s core skill!
A power thief who could use double-edged sword well could transform into a demon with immortal level DPS.
The immortal warlock couldn’t avoid the hit. He couldn’t escape no matter what.
Connecting clouds and landing on clouds were both on cooldown, and he no longer had any open skills. He could only stand in the middle and…
Switch talents!
The immortal clothing turned into fog, and his ink black hair was dyed red. A blood colored cloak came into being from thin air and landed on the thief, leaving only his cold, pale chin peeking out from beneath his hood and the crimson blade that hung at his waist.
At this moment, the power thief and berserker warrior who’d watched the scene clearly both sucked in breaths of air.
This kid…
The immortal warlock had only been a cover. There was now a shadow thief with a blue-grade equipment; give it a try?
This scene not only shocked the two people in the Moonlight Wetland, it also shocked the global audience who were watching the fight.
“Holy shit, that’s so handsome!”
“The game planners put in a lot of effort. This talent switch is too explosive!”
“Is the immortal warlock and shadow thief so well matched? Fellow sisters, how about trying a self-gong and self-shou combo?!”
What was even more amazing was Wei Xiao’s hand speed. He switched talents in a flash, then used shadow attack in the same instant.
He hid himself, used his movement skill to shift into his opponent’s face, launching a sneak attack from behind. This series of simple and direct moves was so perfect that it was like an exquisite work of art displayed under brilliant lights
He left marks, stacked up damage, and not only did he avoid the power thief’s double-edged sword, he even flew towards the berserker warrior’s back.
Critical hit, rend, explosive damage!

The colors changed constantly, crimson, dark red, cherry red, orange yellow, bright yellow, white, cold white, blue…
“F*ck!”
“Eight arcs!”
“Damn it, it’s just missing the last bit…”
The arc color corresponded to flame temperatures, going from the starting red to an extreme dark blue, like an ultra-high temperature flame that could burn everything.
The layers of progressive color changes finally stopped at eight light arcs.
It was still gorgeous, still eye-catching. It already held huge lethal power, but at the end of the day, it was still one step worse than nine lights.
The special effects dispersed.
The power thief who’d already lost a portion of his health from the backlash of the double-edged sword ran out of HP, falling into the swamp with an empty health bar.
The berserker warrior had a higher defense and more health. Due to his innate high defense and the fact that he was positioned further away from the core of the light arcs, he’d taken less damage and still had a third of his health left.
Seeing that his ‘ally’ had fallen to the ground, the berserker warrior turned around to run without a second thought.
Damn it…
How was this anything like a little demon? It was clearly an old demon master!
Playing with people’s hearts, trampling on their dignity, and toying with them until they were spinning around in circles.
Yet they had no way to resist.
It was 1v2, but they’d been beaten up until they were crawling on the floor in a mess. It would be really humiliating if it was mentioned to anyone.
Oh, there was no need to mention it. This was on a goddamned global live broadcast!
The berserker warrior muttered in his heart: Damn it, damn it, please don’t let anyone have been watching them.
There shouldn’t have been anyone watching, right?
The big brawl had an all-star line-up participating in the game. Nobody would watch ‘civilian’ players like them.
He was in the midst of trying to comfort himself when the shadow thief’s movement skill, sudden strike, brought him close. A flying blade floated by, taking away the berserker warrior’s life.
Regional announcement:
I Like Close The Most killed Herman.
I Like Close The Most killed Jacob.
I Like Close The Most double kill!
Wei Xiao quickly collected the dropped equipment and skill points on the ground. He unlocked all the immortal warlock’s skills, then lifted his head, “Was it a good show?”
The angle of his gaze was accurate, locking directly onto the white figure sitting on the magic vine in the distance.
Yan Jiang: “……”
The audience in the live broadcast room exploded. “Quiet knew that there was someone on the magic vines!”
“How did he discover God Yan?”
“This little brat is really amazing!”
“If it wasn’t for the fact that his ID is too deadly, I would become one of his fans.”
Because countless members of the audience were watching from Yan Jiang’s perspective, they could see exactly what Yan Jiang could see.
In the vast swamp that roiled with strange black bubbles stood an immortal warlock dressed in floating, immortal clothing. His ink colored hair was loose, and a few strands would occasionally sweep against his cheek, highlighting the creamy paleness of his skin. His cold eyebrows were raised up, his dark eyes seeming to stare straight into a person’s heart.
It was clearly just a game character, but it seemed to hold a soul!
Being looked at like this was enough to make their heart rate accelerate!
The audience stared fixedly at the scene and didn’t have the slightest intention of switching to watch the situation in the other zones.
Although they weren’t fighting anymore, watching a newcomer act so arrogantly and provocatively towards the world’s number one support player was really too exciting!
And, this newcomer was FTW’s new jungler king.
This number one support player was also the former Team of Gods captain.
What made it even more exciting was that Yan Jiang didn’t know who the person with the ID I Like Close The Most was!
Interesting, interesting. This scene was very interesting from every angle.
What was going to happen?
Would Yan Jiang come down?
Would the two of them solo?
Was the new FTW and old FTW about to tear into each other in the Moonlight Wetland?
Don’t ask, if you ask, then they’re really high!
The audience was in high spirits, but it was quiet in the game.
The dark swamp that stretched as far as the eye could see, the magic vines that shot straight up into the sky, and the two characters––one was a holy priest that represented holiness and light, and the other was an immortal warlock wearing wide robes with long sleeves––they looked at each other from afar, across the dark and gloomy Moonlit Wetland.
The magic vines shook.
The stiff priest garb was neat and tidy even when blown up by the wind.
Yan Jiang came down, and his ID was finally exposed to Wei Xiao’s gaze.
Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment.
Yan Jiang’s fingers tapped lightly as he knocked out a word, “Yes.” This was in response to Wei Xiao’s earlier question.
Wei Xiao: “……”
Half a second later, he reacted in shock, “God Yan?”
Y1.Yan.
Who else could it be besides Yan Jiang?
Not to mention, this holy priest that was crowned with the glory of the champion.
This was a privilege from the 5v5 team competition. When using the talent that won the final game, a special championship effect would appear beside the player’s game ID.
A tiny little crown that represented the glory of victory!
This was a glory that the current FTW could only hope for, but not expect.
The championship special effects had appeared two years ago, so Lu Feng didn’t have this little crown despite having won a 5v5 championship.
Wei Xiao’s eyes heated, and his heart was also boiling. He used connecting clouds and flew straight at Yan Jiang.
Damn it.
Let’s have a fight first before talking about anything else!
After the immortal warlock unlocked its ultimate move, it could use connecting clouds, landing on clouds, cloud marks and positioning to brush out thousand layers of clouds.
He’d just shown off the light arcs, and was now about to use thousand layers of clouds. It made everyone in the audience inhale in surprise.
“Quiet really knows how to play the immortal warlock!”
Many people recalled his statement on Weibo––damn it, could it be that those four demonic IDs actually belonged to him?!
The thousand layers of clouds was about to begin, but Wei Xiao abruptly stopped moving.
The audience sucked in another breath, “???”
“Did he fail?”
“He screwed up?”
“Just now, I really thought he could use the immortal warlock. So it turned out that he was just pretending.”
Soon, a chat box appeared over Wei Xiao’s head, “Why aren’t you switching talents?”
Yan Jiang didn’t move. “There’s no point in switching.”
Wei Xiao frowned. “You don’t have any skill points?”
Yan Jiang indeed didn’t have any skill points, but that wasn’t the key point. He knew what the other party was thinking. “I don’t have the medicine warlock talent.”
It wasn’t that Yan Jiang couldn’t solo. If he’d chosen the medicine warlock, there wouldn’t be a single person on the Sky Island of Light who could kill him.
Not even Close.
But he hadn’t chosen the medicine warlock at all.
For his four starting talents, he’d chosen all the healing talents that had no DPS and could only heal.
Wei Xiao stood still and didn’t move. “Why didn’t you choose the medicine warlock?”
Yan Jiang: “I didn’t want to.”
Wei Xiao stared at him for a while, then suddenly realized. “You want to die.”
Yan Jiang: “……”
Just now, Wei Xiao’s skills had already landed on Yan Jiang and scraped off half his health.
At this moment, knowing that God Yan was determined to die, Wei Xiao kindly gave him two medicine bags, “Don’t die, you have to live well.” My captain is still waiting for you in the finals circle!
The author has something to say:
God Yan: I want to die.
Wei Xiao: No, you don’t want to.
I’ll kill those who want to live and save those who want to die -WX

Thank you for the chapter!
sht now that I think about it, won’t this be like another cp for the rotten fans to ship with?! “God damn it why is it so easy to ship all of these professional players with each other?!” ( probably what all of thd rotten fans thinking), don’t tell me that this will end up as Wei Xiao x All?! LMAO 🤣
Noooo don’t drown the Captain with a sea of vinegar Little Xiao!!! I’m worried for your little chrysanthemum!
