As a commotion arose from all directions, one might have thought the place was being raided.

Inside the Fallen Temple, some professional players hunting divine guards suddenly found themselves gripped by inexplicable panic.

But they soon discovered: it was just the patrol teams of the Four Great Clans entering the Fallen Temple.

And this time, the leaders of the Four Great Clans personally showed up. Just like the last time at the temple, they led their people to the Fallen Temple. Upon arrival, they began a comprehensive search of the shrine.

It was obvious to anyone:

"The leaders of the Four Great Clans all appearing at the same place... Could the Imperial Seal be in the Fallen Temple?"

"Is that true or just a rumor?"

"Whoa! Isn't there a legend in World 15 that whoever possesses the Imperial Seal will rule the world? Everyone, start looking for the seal now."

"Let's go, brothers! Whether we hit the jackpot or end up empty-handed depends on this."

Thus, all the professionals inside the shrine dropped whatever they were doing and started searching for the Imperial Seal.

Zhang Yue began pondering.

If the first time was a coincidence, then what about this time?

Historically, incidents where the Four Great Clans searched for the Imperial Seal in the same place happened only once or twice a year.

Yet Zhang Yue, who had been in World 15 for less than a day, had encountered this twice in a row. And both times, it was in places he happened to be.

It was almost as if the Imperial Seal was with Zhang Yue himself.

Regardless of who found the seal in the end, Zhang Yue's plan remained the same: he'd just snatch it!

After all, if he didn't, someone else would.

In Zhang Yue's hands, the Imperial Seal would be safest anyway.

Given his strength, even if the Four Great Clans joined forces, they couldn't do anything to him.

The Imperial Seal belonged to the strong.

With that thought, Zhang Yue continued with his mission.

He neither accepted nor rejected the recruitment from Nightshade, Crimson Chain, and Sakura.

He just kept leading the three to hunt down divine guards.

During this time, Sakura quietly assisted Zhang Yue by using her skill to apply an effect equivalent to [Mark of Death] on the divine guards.

This meant that when Zhang Yue killed the marked divine guards, they died permanently without triggering resurrection.

With this, the task of killing 100 divine guards became incredibly easy.

In no time at all, Zhang Yue completed the mission.

At this moment, Nightshade ran up to him.

"So, how about it, big boss? Give it some thought. We're really strong, and our Sakura isn't just beautiful with a sweet voice—her skills are top-notch too!"

Zhang Yue glanced at Nightshade. "Top-notch skills?"

Nightshade gestured toward Sakura, who was standing at a distance. "Sakura, show the big boss what you've got!"

Sakura froze for a moment. "Right now?"

"Yes, now! Show him what you've got and make sure he's satisfied, make him feel great."

Hesitating for a moment, Sakura walked toward Zhang Yue nervously.

Zhang Yue, however, was on guard.

After all, he knew this woman was from Eastern Nation.

But based on Sakura's hand movements, Zhang Yue roughly understood. "A massage?"

"Exactly!" Nightshade laughed. "What else did you think it was?"

"That won't be necessary," Zhang Yue declined. "I have things to do. I'll be off now."

With that, Zhang Yue turned and left the Fallen Temple.

Nightshade quickly shouted after him, "Hey! Big boss, think it over. We're really worth it!"

"No need to think."

Hearing Zhang Yue's firm reply, both Nightshade and Sakura felt a wave of disappointment.

Crimson Chain, however, looked at Zhang Yue with determined eyes. "No matter what, we must join the Hall of Destiny!"

While the three were racking their brains on how to convince Zhang Yue, he suddenly turned around and glanced at them.

"You're in."

The three were momentarily stunned before bursting into excitement like kids.

"The big boss agreed! We can join the Hall of Destiny!"

"Awesome!"

Hurriedly, they followed Zhang Yue.

On the way back to Ghost City, Nightshade earnestly asked Zhang Yue, "President, do we need to change our names after joining the guild? Are there rules to follow or things to watch out for?"

"Just one rule," Zhang Yue said. "No betraying the nation. Follow the Dragon Nation's laws."

Hearing this, Sakura clutched her robes tightly and remained silent.

After a pause, Zhang Yue added, "Send me your personal information for registration."

"Is that mandatory?" Sakura asked hesitantly.

Zhang Yue took a step closer. "What are you worried about?"

Just as Sakura seemed unsure of how to respond, Nightshade quickly stepped in to explain, "Well, President, as I mentioned earlier, Sakura grew up in the Dragon Nation but is originally from Eastern Nation. She's worried that her bloodline might cause misunderstandings within the guild..."

Zhang Yue replied, "It's fine. I'll explain it to everyone."

Soon, they arrived at Ghost City.

Zhang Yue found the ghost guard who had issued his earlier mission and submitted the task.

He then picked up a new mission from another ghost soldier.

At the same time, Zhang Yue learned some news about the Fallen Temple from other professionals.

"I heard the Four Great Clans searched again, but there was no trace of the Imperial Seal at the Fallen Temple!"

"That's the second time. Who's spreading false information?"

"This feels fishy..."

Shortly after, Zhang Yue reached his mission location: the lv86 Array Ghost Camp.

The Array Ghost Camp, a major Hell Ghost Clan base, had been taken over by Undead Divine Guards, losing its leadership.

The mission required Zhang Yue, as a Hell Ghost Clan member, to defend the camp for three hours, resisting attacks from the Undead Divine Guards while staying alive.

Alternatively, Zhang Yue could end the mission early by killing 300 Undead Divine Guards permanently.

Given Zhang Yue's speed, he could normally finish off 300 guards in an hour.

But with Sakura's skill, which worked like the Mark of Death, every Undead Divine Guard he killed was permanently eliminated.

As a result, Zhang Yue completed what should've been an hour-long task in just five minutes.

If Sakura's skill could affect multiple targets at once, Zhang Yue wouldn't even need five seconds to finish.

No one would've guessed that Zhang Yue left the camp only five minutes after arriving, leaving other professionals doing the same mission utterly baffled.

Back in Ghost City, he submitted the mission and immediately started the next one...
