“So you still care about us, huh?” Yeon Hee’s ex-boyfriend, Min Soo sneered, “Where have you been all this time? Why do you care about us all of a sudden, Yeon Hee? Are you having fun working with the new people? Do you want to mock us so that you become more successful than us right now?”

Yeon Hee was stunned for a moment, not expecting that would come from the gentle Min Hoo, “You should know why I can’t contact or meet you, right? What do you want me to do in that situation? Trying to sneak out of the Tang Empire and get you all killed for nothing? Do you think I want all of this to happen? There’s no way you blame me for what happened, right?”

“Huh, don’t you enjoy The Emperor’s cock? I heard he has many wives, and I guess I understand why you are betraying us. Working dutifully for the faction that separated you from your boyfriend and friends. And now you want us to work for the Tang Empire? His cock must be really amazing, huh?” Min Hoo said with a scornful smirk on his lips.

Yeon Hee was angry at how Min Hoo turned it as if she betrayed them. She sacrificed herself to save them all, thinking she would be the sex slave at that time. But it was seen as her betrayal. Her breathing roughed up, she could not believe that it came from Min Hoo.

Piack!

Sin Yoon, Yeon Hee’s best friend, slapped Min Hoo hard, standing up while raising her voice, “You know that’s not what happened, right? How could you say that to Yeon Hee? She turned herself in to save our lives, or else we will not be her.”

Dae Jung wanted to be a mediator for his friends. This should be a happy reunion, The Haven met again, and the seven members gathered again. He was not expecting it would turn out like this.

To everyone’s surprise, Min Hoo pulled Sin Yoon’s hand, pulled her onto his lap, and kissed her on the lips. He forcefully kissed her to show Yeon Hee that Sin Yoon was now his new girlfriend. Sin Yoon was shocked for a moment, but then she immediately pushed him away. Then another slap landed on the same cheek, “Min Hoo!”

“What? Isn’t it normal for a couple to kiss?” Min Hoo smirked, shrugging as if it was nothing.

Yeon Hee was surprised at first, but then she let out a chuckle, “I am glad that I am not the only one who changes.”

“It’s not like that, Yeon Hee. We—” Sin Yoon tried to explain the situation, but Min Hoo cut her off, “There’s no need to explain it, Yoon. We don’t owe her an explanation. I am a single man, and you are a single woman. What’s wrong if we become a couple while she works for the person who tore us apart?”

“As he said, Yoon. You don’t need to explain it to me. It’s totally fine,” Yeon Hee smiled, and in fact, she was relieved inside, “I want to meet you just because I want to know how you are doing and also the offer. I am glad you all look like doing well without me. Ah, also the warning for the upcoming war. So, what’s your decision, will you join the Tang Empire or continue doing what you are doing.”

Silent followed after Yeon’s words, no one responding to her. Min Hoo was shocked that his provocation failed while Dae Jung and the other three were considering the offer carefully. 𝗈𝒱𝑙xt.𝓬𝒐𝐦

Bam!

“What’s to think about?” Min Hoo slammed the table, raising his voice, “If there’s really a war coming, then we will join the players from the other worlds. If there’s a chance for me to destroy the Tang Empire, then I will jump into that chance without hesitation. I will destroy the Tang Empire and kill The Emperor! That was what I promised you when he took you back then, and I will live to fulfill that promise! Join us, Yeon Hee. Let’s destroy the Tang Empire together! This is our chance!” Min Hoo offered his hand to Yeon Hee.

Yeon Hee was caught off guard by Min Soo’s crazy idea, staring at her ex-boyfriend’s hand. She looked at him, then she shook her head, “You have no chance of killing The Emperor, and I advise you to throw that idea away from your head. It might get you killed, Min Soo. You are just an Ancient Rank. Stop your foolish ideas. You can’t kill him or destroy the Tang Empire. We will win this war, and you should join the Tang Empire instead! Believe me, the Tang Empire will not lose this war!”

Did she still resent Tang Shaoyang? Not anymore. Yeon Hee accepted her new life and planned to continue her life for the Tang Empire. The Tang Empire was her new home, and it will always be for the rest of her life.

“And I hope you are not going to follow his crazy idea?” Yeon Hee turned to the other five. She hoped the other five would persuade Min Soo not to do the crazy idea.

Sin Yoon and the other four hesitated, looking back and forth between Yeon Hee and Min Soon. Yeon Hee was their former leader, and Min Soo was their current leader.

“Why are you all hesitating!?” Min Soo raised his voice, “We will kill The Emperor, and we will destroy the Tang Empire. That’s our goal, and it will not change just because this bitch asks us to join the Tang Empire!”

“I am not planning to come out, but I have to now,” A familiar voice came from Yeon Hee’s behind. She was not expecting to hear that voice in this place, turning around and it was the person in her mind, Lu An.

“I am really not planning to come out, but I will not allow the people who threaten His Majesty’s life free,” Lu An walked past Yeon Hee.

Min Soo took out his spear, without hesitation jumping toward Lu An. The spear hit the empty air as Lu An disappeared into the shadow and appeared again behind Min Soo. The shadow raised, coiling around Min Soo, and caught the man.

Lu An turned toward the other five, “Do you want to surrender or….”
