"Hey! Ye Yunyou! Stop right there!" Qingyu couldn't stop him in time, and when she was about to chase after him, her path was blocked by the three people beside her.

"Miss, are you alright? That murderer didn't harm you, did he?"

"Hahaha, that guy was all talk, completely useless in reality!"

The three men who successfully saved the girl from the hands of the notorious player surrounded Qingyu with a pleased expression on their faces. It seemed as if they had done a great deed, and their mischievous smiles anticipated a heartfelt gratitude from Qingyu, preferably accompanied by a kiss.

Qingyu stared coldly at the three men in front of her and then glanced in a hurry at Yunyou, who had disappeared into the distant woods. Her anger grew stronger.

"You guys, move aside! Don't block my way!"

Yunyou didn't know that Qingyu, despite her earlier remark of disliking men who were overly attentive, actually had a strong aversion towards men due to some past experiences. The vulgar pursuers in real life were one thing, but the fact that the two men she encountered shortly after entering the "Void Realm" were both thugs with intentions to take advantage of her made Qingyu's impression of men in the gaming world hit rock bottom.

Even if it was a misunderstanding or some other reason, Qingyu now considered Yunyou the only exceptional man. He saved her without concern for his red name, taught her numerous game skills last night, and further convinced her that Yunyou was a patient and kind-hearted person.

But this kind of person, due to the so-called red name, was subject to baseless misunderstandings. Others wouldn't care about the reason behind his red name. In the eyes of outsiders, a red name meant a murderer. Did they really need to ask each red-named person one by one why they killed before engaging in a fight?

As someone who knew the truth, Qingyu had no sympathy for this behavior that unjustly condemned Yunyou without any consideration of the facts.

However, Qingyu's firm demand completely caught the three men off guard. One of them quickly wiped the smile off his face and looked displeased at the grey-haired young girl.

"Miss, we saved you. Why do you still have such an attitude towards us? That's not appropriate, is it?"

"Saved me? If you guys hadn't drawn your swords without reason, I would have told you already. Ye Yunyou is not the kind of person you think he is. He became a red name because he saved me. We spent the whole night together yesterday, so there was no need for your rescue!"

"What?"

Qingyu's explanation finally caused the three men to pause for a moment, but it didn't last long because they clearly didn't believe her.

"Stop joking. How could someone with that kind of red name do such a thing? Besides, if he really saved you, why didn't he explain it himself a moment ago and instead acted as if he wanted to possess you?"

"Well..."

Qingyu was at a loss for words after being questioned. The reasons behind Yunyou's actions were indeed complicated and not easy to explain clearly. Although Qingyu could see that Yunyou's behavior was intentional, it would be impossible for the other party to believe it.

"Miss, even if what he said is true, you could still be deceived by him. After all, he's a red name who isn't afraid to kill. Why should a normal person believe a red name?"

"Yeah, you should stay with us. You've seen our strength, and we can definitely protect you. Even if you have other plans later, we can accompany you back to 'Istaran' and figure it out together."

Seemingly convinced that the red name who just escaped couldn't be anything good, or perhaps wanting to seize this opportunity to have the stunning beauty in front of them to themselves, the three men made every effort to discredit Yunyou and convinced Qingyu to change her perception, urging her to view a red name with a "normal" mindset.However, Qingyu obviously didn't appreciate it.

"I've said it before, you've misunderstood Ye Yunyou! Anyway, would you please move aside? We won't be able to catch up if you keep blocking us like this!"

Qingyu, rarely transitioning from mild anger to frustration, couldn't understand why there always seemed to be these delusional people around her.

Meanwhile, the other party finally experienced the determination of a girl like Yunyou.

"Beautiful girl, why won't you listen? We've also said that the player with the red name is definitely not..."

"I didn't expect to encounter other players in a place like this, quite interesting."

Just like a pre-written script, the same scene as before unfolded again. Within the argument between Qingyu and the three men in front of her, three more players appeared not far away.

However, unlike before, the first encounter involved three ordinary players "driving away" Yunyou, who had a red name. This time, the opposite was true - three players with red names appeared!

If Yunyou's red name could be considered an accidental coincidence, then these three players with red names appearing now were suspicious.

It had only been two days since the game server opened, and after Yunyou's red name incident, all players received a system email explaining the punishment for having a red name. This meant that these three people intentionally went on a killing spree after learning about the permanent red name punishment!

Almost simultaneously, the three ordinary players, who were known for their strength, swiftly drew their weapons cautiously. The situation in front of them was completely different from before - the threat posed by three players with red names far surpassed Yunyou alone, at least superficially.

"What's going on? Why are there so many players with red names? Are they with that guy from earlier?"

The three individuals who couldn't determine the situation watched their opponents as if facing a great enemy. All three players with red names had higher levels than their own. If they were to engage in a fight, it would likely be a fierce battle.

The three players with red names casually glanced at Qingyu's direction, but soon their expressions froze as they exchanged a knowing look. It seemed that Qingyu's beauty had impressed them.

"The woman stays?"

"The woman stays."

"Then one person each."

Their concise conversation lacked the atmosphere that normal people would have. Before understanding what "one person each" meant, the three players with red names all pulled out their daggers simultaneously without any further words, rapidly closing in from three different directions.

"You red-named bastards, don't underestimate us -!"
