Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 959: Such Hypocrisy…

Xu Feng didnʼt expect Fernandoʼs rage to explode so thunderously. He had thought the latter would have started shouting for Reckonizerʼs name first.

After all, compared to Reckonizer, the latter was still considered a part of the external force playerʼs side.

Meanwhile, Donald belonged to the Cyclone Guild. And who didnʼt know the Cyclone Guild promoted harmony?

Although it was hypocritical considering the internal political fight between the branches, outwardly, they still had to act as if they were very best buddies.

Hence, Xu Feng never thought Fernando would outright disregard the so-called harmony act and called out Donald for the grudges.

Seeing his perplexed expression on the side, Carmen suddenly curled her lips upward.

”Psst, Guild Leader. Are you curious why Fernando is shredding the pretentious act and calling out Donald?” Carmen whispered to his ear softly.

Stunned, Xu Feng turned to her and looked at her. ”You know something?”

He was certainly baffled to learn that the supposedly naive and ignorant Carmen would have information regarding them.

”Yes,” she flashed a sly smile and explained, ”The Cyclone Guild Leader plans on retiring soon and entering the grand elder group. Heʼs exhausted from managing the super guild for so long.”

BOOM!

The information was like a bomb exploding in Xu Fengʼs mind.

”Are you absolutely certain?” He lowered his tone and asked solemnly. ”And where did you even get such news?”

”I have my own channel, and I can say itʼs basically confirmed that they will soon elect a new Guild Leader,” Carmen answered the second question ambiguously, but answered straightforwardly on his first question.

With the questions answered in a somewhat weird manner, Xu Feng was silent.

”Why didnʼt you tell me from the start?” He twitched his brows. Such information would have been critical and helpful to him.

”Well, you never asked.” Carmen shrugged. ”Also, do you think I have the opportunity to tell you when weʼre all so busy?”

Their interaction lately might seem very long, but the truth was that they were constantly under a time crunch.

They were either busy with the town development, the dungeon raid, or the discussion of the trial.

There just wasnʼt any window of opportunity for Carmen to relay the information.

Moreover, unlike Xu Feng, who could absorb the information received on the spot and swiftly utilize it. Carmen needed time to digest and organize them.

Her process of absorption was known to Xu Feng, so every time he lectured or explained things to her, he made sure it was relatively concise and simple.

”Alright, you have a point there.” Xu Feng exhaled softly and realized he really had never asked her many questions. More often or not, it was always him being questioned and answering them in response.

”I should raise more questions in the future. Otherwise, I might just miss out on crucial information.” He truly regretted not asking earlier. Had he known about this, then he could have done bigger damage.

Carmen nodded with a sense of pride. She raised her chin slightly up and said, ”Yes, you should ask me some more questions. Iʼll answer them gladly.”

”Okay, then whatʼs your age and body measurement?”

”Scram!”

Realizing that he was teasing her, Carmenʼs face quickly puffed up, and she nearly wanted to pinch his arm.

Of course, if it were someone else who asked such a question. Then what they would face was not just some desire to commit an act. Instead, it would be a full-blown beat down until they couldnʼt even recognize who their mama was.

While their conversation was ongoing, the accusation and rage between Donald and Fernando forcefully subsided by Floral Witch.

Her reasoning was simple.

She would rat on the two of them and complain directly to the grand elder group to have them impeached for acting out of hand as a branch leader.

Sure enough, such a threat worked like a charm, and both sides could only glare at each other fiercely.

However, the incident was made known to many others that Fernando and Kelso had teamed up. After all, Fernando was targeting Donald with the pretext of Kelsoʼs death in the battle royale from Donaldʼs scheme.

With the commotion temporarily suppressed, the rest soon grouped up.

But it was very clear that the external force players invited by the Super Guild had been divided.

Although there were still some external force players remaining in the Super Guild they were invited from, most chose to form their own group. The battle royale experience already showcased that they were an outcast.

For an outcast, it would be a daydream for them to leave their back unguarded to the Super Guild.

Xu Feng and Carmen planned on being at the side of the external force players as well. After all, it could be said that their relationship with the Cyclone Guild had soured substantially.

But for some reason, Azalea spotted them and hurriedly went to their side.

”There you are.” She said with a somewhat relieved tone. ”Our Floral Branch is over here. Let me guide you there.”

Carmenʼs expression remained unchanged. She was stoic, completely unreadable from Azaleaʼs perspective.

However, Xu Feng knew that Carmen was waiting for his decision.

It didnʼt take long for him to make one, though.

”I see… There are too many people, and I didnʼt know where you were located.” Xu Feng subtly responded.

Although it appeared as if Xu Feng was giving a reason why he wasnʼt grouping with them, Azalea realized that he was giving her a heads-up. A heads-up where their cooperation might be in jeopardy if the situation continued as it is without any changes.

Despite understanding the implication, Azalea put on a friendly smile and nodded in agreement. ”Indeed, the crowd is too abundant, and the commotion caused by Fernando only causes more chaos.”

While the two were conversing quite amiably, Carmen was once again enlightened by the way of the world.

ʼSo one could play like this, huh.ʼ She thought to herself. Both sides were on the verge of falling out, but they still acted as if they were very friendly on the surface.

Such hypocrisy…

She definitely needed to learn them and utilize them in the future!
