Chapter 763: Original text: Chapter 21 Above the 9th Day_3

How high have I flown? Ten thousand meters? Probably getting there.

Xiao Jie glanced up at the boundless sky above him. Given the altitude, the blue had turned to a deep dark blue, almost like night.

Indeed, it’s still impossible to be truly free, Xiao Jie thought wistfully.

After one last look at the dark blue sky, Xiao Jie dived towards the ground.

The shrieking wind swept past his ears. Descending was so much easier than climbing.

Xiao Jie shot towards the ground like an arrow leaving the bow. When he was a few hundred meters from the ground, he suddenly spread his wings wide, and the air buoyed him up. Riding the wind, he glided down slowly.

Ah, this is great!

Looking at the bustling activity on the ground beneath him, the feeling of looking down on all beings was incredibly comforting, devoid of the bone-chilling cold of the high skies.

Yet still, he maintained a high altitude.

He discerned familiar landmarks on the ground.

Is that Huqiu Mountain... so small. That must be the commercial building. Eh, that’s—it’s Chen Tianwen’s manor.

Xiao Jie could see villas spread out across the new district. Xiao Jie wanted to talk to Chen Tianwen about the Pantheon, so he dove down.

He landed slowly in the yard of Chen Tianwen’s villa. Seeing no one around, Xiao Jie reverted to his original form.

To Xiao Jie’s surprise, it seemed Chen Tianwen had visitors.

There was a black SUV with a fierce design parked in the yard.

Without thinking much, he walked straight to the villa door. As soon as he pushed it open, he immediately heard a cold shout.

"Who’s there?"

Xiao Jie’s demeanor instantly became alert. He turned abruptly and saw a man in a jacket, dual blades in hand, staring intensely at him.

"And who are you?" Xiao Jie was ready to transform at any moment. Since he didn’t have weapons, transforming was his only option for combat.

But before the two could engage, a slightly familiar voice sounded from upstairs.

"No need to be tense, Kuang Dao. This is Hidden Moon Following Wind, a friend of Dragon Soaring."

Eh, isn’t that Jiuxiao Huanpei?

The man called Kuang Dao immediately lowered his blades after hearing this.

"Haha, my mistake, my mistake. I thought you were from the Pantheon."

Xiao Jie looked questioningly towards Jiuxiao Huanpei, and behind Jiuxiao Huanpei, at Chen Tianwen, and two other unfamiliar figures. Eh, Captain Lin was here too.

"What a coincidence! What are you doing here?"

Jiuxiao Huanpei shook his head. "Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Mr. Chen, I hope you consider it carefully. Considering your past conflicts with the Pantheon, joining us is your best option."

"I will consider it carefully," Chen Tianwen said expressionlessly, but it was clearly just a perfunctory response.

"Then we’ll stay in touch." Jiuxiao Huanpei seemed somewhat helpless as he gestured for his people to leave.

Watching them get into the vehicle and drive away, Xiao Jie finally relaxed. He could sense that those individuals were all experts.

"Who are they?"

"Didn’t you know? Well, not surprising. They are the special task force of the Game Administration Bureau. But they have another name — Dragon Team."

Dragon Team... Xiao Jie was shocked. Such an over-the-top name, and someone dared to use it?

This kind of thing is often seen in many novels, but I didn’t expect it to actually exist.

Chen Tianwen looked somewhat helpless as well. "It was originally called the Special Operations Group, but I guess to be cooler, or to attract players with a penchant for the dramatic, they named it Dragon Team. The members of the Dragon Team are top experts recruited in the game."

Xiao Jie suddenly realized that this Dragon Team must be the brother unit of Dragon Soaring.

"How do you know this?"

"Captain Lin told me. They even invited me to join them to fight against the Pantheon."

"You didn’t agree."

Chen Tianwen shook his head. These people were very strong, but compared to the Heavenly Venerate... He sighed.

Although he didn’t say it outright, the meaning was clear. The power disparity was too great.
