Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1592: Esports Tournament Part 19

A few hours after the incident...

The explosive rumors of Gentle Wind selling her body to form an alliance with the Vanguard Guild were heated in both the Divine World and the real world.

Haven Wind City, City Hall

"How are you feeling, Guild Leader Gentle Wind?" Xu Feng asked softly.

Currently, the city hall main room was sealed off and only a few people were allowed to attend.

Aside from Xu Feng, Veronica and Carmen were both present on behalf of Vanguard Guild.

As for the rest, they were Gentle Wind, Zhao Xin, aka Autumn Breeze, RavenKnight, Herald Fist, and Serene Paragon.

Since Zhao Xin wished to retain her secretive identity as the mastermind of the Dark Legion Guild, RavenKnight had come to attend on behalf of the guild.

Of course, almost everyone present in the room had a feeling that she was the actual Guild Leader.

They simply kept quiet because there was no need to spell it aloud.

Not to mention, the current urgency wasn’t about whether she was the Guild Leader or not, but whether Gentle Wind was feeling alright.

"Hmph, I despised this kind of action the most. They better not let me find out who did this smear campaign." Herald Fist grunted coldly. His eyes were piercing cold as he exuded killing intent.

He might have been a rival and constantly clashed with Gentle Wind, but all those had been done openly and fairly.

To smear someone in such a despicable way was crossing his bottom line.

After all, if anyone dared to smear his little sister in that kind of manner, he would have their head.

"Indeed, those people making the post and hiding their names better stay incognito." Serene Paragon sneered coldly.

As a woman, she knew how insulting and degrading such a smear campaign was.

"So do we have any clues on who would do this kind of thing?" Veronica suddenly asked. She was infuriated, but she made sure to keep a rational mind to tackle the problem.

She called for a meeting because they couldn’t allow this to fester any longer than necessary.

Although the city’s popularity and revenue wasn’t affected, the reputation did take a massive hit.

In fact, she had been constantly bombarded with ridiculous messages in them offering women to her Guild Leader.

"It’s definitely the Super Guilds’ doing." Xu Feng calmly said. "Only they are capable of spreading the news this fast and wide. Those posters are probably hired players who will do anything for money."

"I don’t think Paragon will do this." Serene Paragon spoke up. As a former member of Paragon, she indeed disagreed with some of their methods, but to attack a woman like this was definitely out of the question.

If they were that despicable and low, then she would have never joined them in the first place.

"It’s not Paragon." Xu Feng smirked. "The responsible party was Ethereal and then the rest of the fencesitters decided to play along."

"Huh?"

"Ethereal was responsible for this despicable act?"

"How did you find out?"

Almost everyone at present was stunned by his statement.

Aside from the alliance’s siege war against them, they didn’t confront the Ethereal much.

"Well, it’s not exactly the Ethereal higher-ups, but one sore loser who did it." He clarified and explained how their big boss, Eclipse Nova, had thrashed one of Ethereal’s cargo supply team members thoroughly.

Out of grudge and humiliation, the team leader in charge of the supply decided to seek revenge.

"They were quite cautious, but not cautious enough." Xu Feng snickered coldly.

Little did they know, he was one of the masterminds behind water army trolls.

As someone who had dealt with trolls and malicious slander in the past timeline, he knew very well that being the mastermind of multiple water armies was bound to be helpful.

Of course, he made sure this was kept a secret for everyone, including Carmen.

In fact, even the people working in the water army didn’t know about his identity. All they knew was to submit a report through a secure email and receive a deposit there.

Be it in the form of crypto or cash, everyone’s identity remained safe and they only needed to report to him.

Needless to say, Xu Feng had sent an email to inquire about the buyer for this motion.

Very soon, the buyer’s username was revealed to him, and Xu Feng proceeded to pay a hacker some money—about 5 digits.

Expensive?

Yes, but so what?

He was stingy, but that was only when it was something that could be saved.

"Wait, so you knew in advance already?" Zhao Xin raised an eyebrow. "Why call us here then?"

Everyone here thought they had to do some investigation or something else to deal with the situation.

"To make a statement." Xu Feng’s eyes glinted in a cold light. "I’ve already had OneManMedia prepare the draft to declare our official alliance. And our alliance’s first objective is to ruin Ethereal."

THUD!

Almost everyone lost their composure when Xu Feng declared to target a Super Guild.

They had just barely finished targeting the Razor Nightmare Super Guild, and now they were already on their way to target another one?

Was he insane?

No, maybe he was already insane!

"I-I don’t think we need to go that far..." Gentle Wind finally spoke up after staying quiet for so long. As the main victim of this attack, she really didn’t want to input much since it would affect the overall decision.

"If the culprit isn’t from a Super Guild, but a slimy, jealous person, would you still say the same?" Xu Feng responded with a question of his own.

He wasn’t judging her for not trying to pick a fight with a behemoth, but was trying to inform her that no matter who they were, he gave zero fuck.

Gentle Wind pursed her lips; a little tear seeped from the corner of her eye.

How could she not feel depressed by the situation?

She worked so hard but everyone was discrediting her work by spreading her legs.

"Just sit back and enjoy popcorn. I didn’t create an alliance for some show." Xu Feng gently said.
