Chapter 314: Shattered Protection Chain

“I, Xiao Tian, am finally back! Wa, ha, ha, ha, ha!”

The arrogant laughter rang out through the Heavenly Dragon Square, but few people paid attention to them.
The loud laughter rang out for a long time before Xiao Tian opened his eyes and looked around.
Heavenly Dragon Square was still filled with people and was very lively, but there were countless more people in the square than usual.
Many people were gathered by the large magic screen in the center of the square and they were all talking to each other.

Xiao Tian came over with a curious look.
He grabbed one of the players pointing and asked, “These brothers, did something happen?”

“There! Look up.” That person pointed at the level ranking, “That number one Asura suddenly disappeared, it really is strange……There was a rumour that the Heavenly Demon Guild killed him until he went back to level zero……”

“What!?” Xiao Tian’s heart tensed as he couldn’t hear the rest of these words.

On another map, Heavenly Demon Wind Cloud who had received this news broke out in wild laughter as he let the monsters in front of him hit him.
All the accumulated rage and hatred had finally disappeared without a trace and was replaced with great pleasure.

“Asura! This is the fate of going against me!” Heavenly Demon Wind Cloud licked the white dagger as a look as fierce as a poisonous snake appeared in his eyes.
He disdainfully looked at the countless misses above his head before with a flash of white light, a three horned beast became a spirit under his dagger.

Beginner Village 99999

“Ding, your level has fallen to level 0 and you have been forcefully sent back to the Beginner Village.
Your status has returned to normal and all your skill cooldowns have been cleared.
When your level surpasses level 9, you will be sent to Heavenly Dragon Imperial City again.
Please do your best.”

The scenery was still quiet and beautiful and the air was very refreshing.
What Feng Xiao saw first was a white figure that he used all his strength to hug.

“Sorry Yao’er, sorry……”

“Big brother……why were you also sent here?”

Feng Yao’s heart twisted.
She was afraid that he would be sent to the same Beginner Village and prayed that he wouldn’t come, but she was also afraid that he wouldn’t see her right away, so she stood in the center of the Beginner Village……But what she was afraid of had come in the end.

“I’m powerless, I couldn’t protect my Yao’er.” Feng Xiao let her go and gently helped her wipe the tears that had unknowingly fell down.

“But……Big brother has already taken revenge for you.
That Demon Fiend that deserves to be chopped into ten thousand pieces has already completely disappeared and he couldn’t be more dead.” Feng Xiao looked away and a look of hatred flashing in his eyes.
When he turned back to Yao’er, his eyes filled with gentleness and guilt again.

Feng Yao was a bit surprised before revealing a happy smile, “I knew that there was nothing that big brother couldn’t do in this world.”

Feng Xiao called out his status screen and the powerful stats of “Star Breaker” appeared in front of Feng Yao.
Feng Xiao said in a soft voice, “It’s this skill that suddenly appeared that killed that Demon Fiend that should die ten thousand times……Don’t worry, although our levels have returned to zero, our Jobs are still there.
Moreover, I still have my three pieces of Asura Equipment, so with our current power, we can definitely quickly level up.”

If it was a normal Job, it would automatically disappear if they fell below level 10 and they would need to Change Jobs again at the Imperial City.
But for the few and rare Hidden Jobs, even if they reached level 0, they wouldn’t disappear.

Feng Xiao’s four Hidden Jobs were still there, his stat increases were still there.
Asura’s Illusion, Asura’s Reverse Scale, Asura’s Evil Seal, and the Snow Spirit Cloak didn’t have any level restrictions, as well there was the Xuanyuan Sword that was still as powerful as before.
Even if he was at level 0, he was still much stronger than most level 50 players.

Feng Yao acted like she didn’t hear anything as she kept staring at his status screen with a look of shock on her beautiful face.
Feng Xiao said with a faint smile, “Is the Star Breaker too powerful?”

After regaining his sanity from his hatred and calming his heart, he was also shocked by the powerful stats of “Star Breaker” just now.

Feng Yao shook her head.
“Star Breaker” was strong, far stronger than she imagined, but what surprised her was……

“Big brother……your stats!”

“Stats?” Feng Xiao curiously looked at his stats.
When his eyes fell onto his “stats”, he was surprised.

Strength: 836!

Feng Xiao didn’t dare believe his eyes.
With his current level 0 state, his strength should come from the increase of his four Jobs, the Xuanyuan Sword, Asura’s Reverse Scale’s 20% increase, and Asura’s Evil Seal’s 30% increase.
Adding all of this together, it definitely wasn’t more than five hundred!

And his vitality: 569! It was far beyond what it should be.

What was going on? Feng Xiao and Feng Yao exchanged confused looks.

Suddenly, Feng Xiao’s brain had a light bulb flash and he took off the red necklace that had been on his chest.
He found that the faint red glow was already completely gone and there were several gashes on it, clearly having been damaged.

Feng Xiao immediately understood what happened, it was because of the Protection Chain that he had completely forgotten! It had retained his level 57 stats! This was 285 strength, 114 vitality, 57 agility and intelligence, as well as 1140 HP and 570 MP.
Adding in the increases from his Asura Equipment, it wasn’t just this!

Feng Xiao had kept it on him as a protective charm just in case he accidentally lost a level one day.
But now, his level had fallen by 57 and he had kept 57 levels of stats.

The Protection Chain’s stats appeared in front of Feng Yao and there was a strange glow in her eyes.
This Protection Chain had perfectly completed its “protection” mission.
Because of it, when big brother returned to level 57, he would definitely be much stronger than before.

“It’s a good thing that I kept it on me, I never thought……Hei, hei!” Feng Xiao carefully took off the broken Protection Chain and carefully put it in his inventory before looking at Feng Yao with a smile.
This most common little Spiritual Item out of all the equipment on his body had displayed such a powerful effect.
If it had intelligence, it would “die with satisfaction”.

“Even the heavens are blessing big brother.” Feng Yao revealed a happy smile as the pain in her heart reduced a bit.
Her crescent brows relaxed a bit as she said in a gentle voice, “I’m more confident this time.
I believe that big brother will definitely soon become number one in the world.”

Feng Xiao nodded, but the low spirited feeling in his heart didn’t fade.
He knew the difference between him and other people and adding in their crazy leveling speed, it should be impossible for him to climb onto the level ranking again.

Moreover, he was under level 50, so even if he reached level 10 and returned to Heavenly Dragon Imperial City, he wouldn’t be able to compete in tomorrow’s China tournament.

Thinking of this, the violent tendencies that had disappeared came back again as he clenched his fist.
That crazy idea of destroying the Heavenly Demon Guild became more and more clear.

“Ding, the skill ‘Desperation Abyss’ has ended and your level has dropped by 3! Since you’re already at level 0, the level drop has been negated.”

The black and red glow around Feng Xiao finally disappeared and his stats returned to normal.

“Boss……Boss, are you in……”

Xiao Tian’s anxious voice came from the communication device which surprised Feng Xiao.
He quickly suppressed his anger and took the communication device as he said with a sigh, “Xiao Tian, you’re finally out.”

“This isn’t important.” Xiao Tian cut him off and quickly said, “Why aren’t you on the level ranking? There’s rumours right now that Heavenly Demon Guild’s people killed you until you reached level 0, is that true?”

“The Heavenly Demon Guild killed me until I was level zero?” There was a look of hatred that flashed in Feng Xiao’s eyes, “Are those trash worthy of this?”

Xiao Tian’s voice froze before it became embarrassed, “Eh……Ah, that’s right.
My brain really went out of my head just now.
How could boss possibly suffer at the hands of those idiots from the Heavenly Demon Guild……Then where are you now? Could it be that boss has found some way of hiding your level? Right! It must be this!”

“Hide your butt! Although your boss wasn’t killed back to level 0 by the Heavenly Demon Guild, I did fall into their trap……” Feng Xiao gave a sigh before looking at Feng Yao with an apologetic look, “I fell into the Heavenly Demon Guild’s plot and entered a trap quest map, so my level returned to level 0 and I even implicated Yao’er.
I’m at the Beginner Village right now……He, he, do you want to come back with us?”

Feng Yao pouted her lip as she was very dissatisfied with the word “implicated”.
If she was safe and only big brother fell into the trap, she wouldn’t hesitate to use all kinds of methods to return to level 0 to be with him in the Beginner Village.

“What!?” Xiao Tian’s voice turned cold.
Through the communication device, Feng Xiao could feel the bone chilling killing intent coming from the other side and his heart trembled.

After disappearing for a month, his aura had undergone such a large change.
Could it be that the «Rebirth» world could change a person this much?
