Ron and Ron's Mistress.
According to the information given by the system, they were just a Level 46 Umbra Swordmaster and a Level 47 Ignis Swordmaster. They were not part of any clan or party, just a couple of lovebirds but solo players with strength comparable to champions.
In the beginning, Qin Ruo was worried that the two of them would seek revenge against him for taking their Fire Elf's Helmet and the Dark Gold Gauntlets. But after several days of peace and having a breakthrough improvement with his Elemental Perception and Mana Drain which bolstered his strength, he had slowly forgotten about the whole matter.
Unfortunately, Slayer's Heart had brought up the matter and the information he gained about Ron and Ron's Mistress through his friends from Bauhinia League...
Once he saw the information, Slayer's Heart could not help but worry for Qin Ruo...
Ron was once a member of Holy Clan from Netherspirit's Claw League and he was also a Field Commander of Holy Clan.
But that was a history before Slayer's Heart was around and it was before the Five Great Clans merged under Netherspirit's Claw League.
Holy Clan was a rather peculiar clan in the Netherspirit's Claw League as its members were all European players. Since they had a limited area for gaming activity, they rarely interacted with other clans.
Ron used to be Field Commander in the clan but after they merged under the Netherspirit's Claw League, he decided to leave Holy Clan. This info was only known to a few people who had interacted with them.
It just so happened that there were a few of them in Bauhinia League.
Although Ron had left the clan, he did not cut all ties with Holy Clan despite no one knowing the specific details. Furthermore, he still possessed a great deal of prestige and authority in Holy Clan. Some of his equipment were even provided by Holy Clan.
After hearing what Slayer's Heart had to say, Qin Ruo began to contemplate about the matter.
"Since he is one of Holy Clan's members, why have they not looked for me to seek revenge? With their clan's influence, finding out where I am would be a piece of cake."
"That is what I am curious about too, " Slayer's Heart said as he shook his head and looked toward the moving crowd outside the window.
He was certain that it was not because of his reputation that they did not take any action—they were both clans from a league and Holy Clan's has a significant influence in the game. Even Bauhinia Clan would not wage war against Holy Clan just for an outsider. If Ron had really wanted to seek revenge against Qin Ruo, he would have many ways to do so.
He was also not that naïve to think that they would they were in the wrong and do nothing about it—not to mention the Dark Gold Gauntlets, just the Fire Elf's Helmet which had the highest-tier attribute which improves the Fire Dragon Combat Aura would be more than sufficient to make them feel enraged about it.
"That's why I said that you had gotten yourself into some deep trouble. You should be more careful in the future especially players from Holy Clan, " Slayer's Heart said.
Qin Ruo nodded and responded with a smile, "You can be at ease, I would never give them the opportunity to kill me. Even if that moment arises, they would have to pay a steep price to accomplish it."
Slayer's Heart paused for a moment and he laughed to himself as he was being more worried than necessary for Qin Ruo.
Qin Ruo was no longer the newbie Aquamancer he met a week ago. After going through so many battles, he was now on par with professional players and could even escape unscathed from a champion. He could also under certain conditions have the strength of a champion.
If the enemy decided to take Qin Ruo on, they would have to take considerable damage.
"Alright, it seems that I was worried for nothing, let's go. You should quickly improve yourself, when your Mana Drain has reached Master Rank and your Aquamorph and Frostbarrier have reached Advanced Rank, our party should be able to go head to head against Tiger Cub and his party!"
"Let's work harder together!"
They clinked their glasses and drank the toast.

For several hours before dawn, Qin Ruo was at the Killer Bee Valley where Xiaoxiao was leveling. Scarlet Bauhinia and his party had already left by the time he arrived. Qin Ruo began to concentrate as he activated his Frostbarrier for the entire time he was there while he trained wholeheartedly the two new skills he just obtained. He was able to increase Mana Drain and Compressed Frost Bullet's Mastery Points to above 2000 and before he went offline, his Frostbarrier's Mastery Point had reached Novice Rank at 479 Mastery Points.
Xiaoxiao also had significant results as she raised her level to 35, even though her magic spells' Mastery Points did not increase much. Since her maximum MP was still low and she did not have Qin Ruo's Mana Drain, her Mastery Points were not able to increase significantly.
However, the speed that she was improving herself at was still remarkable!
***
On the next day, something big had happened in H&G!
Just as Qin Ruo had finished his work to go home early and opened his door, he received a call from Brother Da.
"Did he leave something behind again?"
Thinking about how careless Brother Da was, Qin Ruo chuckled as he answered his call.
Before he was able to speak a word, Brother Da's loud and anxious voice erupted from the phone as it nearly deafened Qin Ruo.
"Have you reached home yet?!"
"..."
Qin Ruo furrowed his brows as he moved his phone further away rubbing his poor ears and said, "I'd have to ask you Brother Da, are you alright? Did you have a fire in your house? Your voice was so loud."
"Touch wood! You jinx!" Brother Da responded aggressively and then he continued to speak loudly as he asked, "Hey, there is a new event going on in H&G. Have you seen it yet?"
"Are they giving out gold1?"
Qin Ruo replied without giving any though as he closed his apartment's door and changed into his slippers.
"Cut the crap! Quickly turn on your computer and have a look!"
After Brother Da rebuked in a loud and excited voice, Qin Ruo was intrigued as he entered his apartment in his slippers, turned on his laptop and asked Brother Da about what is the whole excitement about.
But Brother Da that punk just grinned mischievously without revealing any information to keep the suspense.
"You can see for you yourself the news, I'm going up to hang up now... Beep..."
"F*ck!" Qin Ruo cursed at his phone with contempt.
That damn fatty, will he drop dead if he just revealed some information? Now I am really intrigued about what is going on!
Luckily the laptop started up quickly and did not have to made Qin Ruo wait in agony as he typed on the keyboard and quickly browsed through his screen.
It was different from usual!
The music which sounded was not the usual exciting and upbeat one but a sweet and melodious one like a poem recited at the beginning scene of movies.
Once a year, the day that the entrance of the Graveyard of the Gods opens!
A graveyard of the gods where there are countless fallen God-tier and Demigod-tier of Angels and Demons. It is also the place where countless Rank 5 and Rank 4 champions and warriors have been buried. When the solar eclipse occurs, it will appear once more on the Mythical Continent.
Heroes from the Angel Faction that wants to maintain peace and happiness bring forth your courage and fight for your beliefs!
Heroes from the Demon Faction who seek power for your own desires fight with one's own name to gain more power!
The Royalty commands the champion by the name of the God and Demons to enter the Graveyard of Gods to search for the power and beliefs that is lost in this cruel battlefield...
The war begins!
The rewards for this event:
Blue Equipment, Violet Equipment, Gold Equipment, Dark Gold Equipment, Legendary Equipment, Demigod Equipment, Divine Equipment, Demonic Equipment.
Tier 1 till Tier 6 Skill Books;
Grade 9 till Grade 1 Herbs;

Various Gemstones;

Divinity...
(All rewards can be obtained from the monster in the Graveyard of the Gods, killing stronger monsters will have a higher chance to get better rewards!)

Graveyard of the Gods?
A new dimension? A large-scale faction player's mission? Or is it...
Based on the information given, Qin Ruo was unable to fully comprehend the full details and meaning behind the event. Even if he browsed through for further description on the official website, he still had no idea what was going on!
Well, this is H&G's usual style...
They would only announce minor details for any events that they release. As for the specific details of the event, the official website would never announce it—requiring players to explore by themselves in the game. Players would have to trigger the events and get more information from the NPCs by themselves.
But what really caught the attention of Qin Ruo was the string of rewards which greatly excited him as he looked at the rewards listing Dark Gold Equipment, Legendary Equipment, Demigod Equipment, Divine Equipment... and the Skill Books back and forth...
He finally understood why Brother Da was so anxious to hang up. The rewards of the event were too attractive! He could guess that Brother Da must have entered the game and currently crazily harassing the NPCs now.
But Qin Ruo was not anxious at all, because according to the time announced by the official website, the solar eclipse should only happen three days later.
It was unnecessary to get so crazy about something that would only happen three days later and for him to forget about eating right? It would be sufficient to just spend a few hours in the game and get the information from the key figure NPCs. In fact, he might not even need to look around as there are many players in the game that would kind-heartedly share the information on the forum online.
