"Has the Starline Corporation set its sights on the Ling YI Society?!"
"That can't be, right? Didn't the Starline Corporation look down on a partnership with a super-first-rate Guild? Why would it suddenly set its sights on the Ling YI Society? "
"If that really is the case, then we'll have to be careful of the Ling YI Society in the future."
The various Guild upper echelons and corporation representatives in the hall quietly discussed among themselves as they watched Lu Xingluo, Shifeng, and the others enter the private reception room.
Meanwhile, Nine Dragons Emperor, who watched from a corner of the hall, frowned.
He had approached the Starline Corporation before, but the corporation had rejected his offer. He hadn't even met Lu Xingluo's representative.
The Starline Corporation was one of the major corporations that had entered God's Domain early on. Unlike the other major corporations, which had only joined the game halfway, the Starline Corporation already had a solid foundation in God's Domain. Even the various superpowers had to be wary of the Starline Corporation.
If the Ling YI Society really chose to partner with the Starline Corporation, it would be much more difficult for him to deal with the Ling YI Society in the future.
"Uncle Yuan, what do you think is going on? The Starline Corporation is actually willing to partner with the Ling YI Society? "Purple Jade, who wore a white dress, asked curiously as she glanced at Shifeng's group.
"I don't know. Based on what I know, the Starline Corporation has never taken the initiative to partner with any Guild. Could the Ling YI Society have secrets that we don't know about?" Yuan Tiexin shook his head. He, too, was confused by the situation.
Truthfully, the Starline Corporation was also a corporation that the Secret Pavilion wanted to recruit. After all, not only did the Starline Corporation possess abundant resources, but it also controlled a large amount of energy, particularly the extremely rare Advanced Energy. If the Secret Pavilion had enough Advanced Energy, it could nurture even more experts.
This was also why many super-first-rate Guilds and Super Guilds were trying to recruit the Starline Corporation.
In the spacious private reception room, both parties sat on luxurious leather sofas and looked at each other. Shifeng was also quite surprised that the famous Starline Financial Group would come to their Ling YI Society. As for Liang Jing, she was about to faint.
After a brief moment of silence, Lu Xingluo shifted his gaze to his cousin, who sat beside Shiuse Qiangwei. A playful smile appeared on his lips as he said, "Miss Mu Lingsha, your Unyielding Soul really doesn't know when to give up. Do you really think that you can obtain that item by sneaking into the Secret Pavilion's internal auction? Do you really think that you'll be able to protect yourself from your imminent defeat?"
Due to Lu Xingluo's words, the reception room suddenly fell silent. Meanwhile, Shifeng and Gentle Snow couldn't help but turn to Shiuse Qiangwei, who had remained silent all this time.
"Is she a member of Unyielding Soul?" Gentle Snow blinked her eyes, shock filling her heart.
Unyielding Soul was a veteran super-first-rate Guild. At its peak, the Guild had been even stronger than many Super Guilds. Although it had remained relatively unknown for the past two or three years, it was still stronger than the current Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion.
Gentle Snow found it hard to believe that such a super-first-rate Guild would entrust itself to the Ling YI Society to participate in the internal auction.
However, what Gentle Snow didn't know was that, due to the Starline Financial Group, Unyielding Soul hadn't received an invitation from the Secret Pavilion. Hence, Mu Lingsha had sought out Shiuse Qiangwei.
The first reason was that they were somewhat distant relatives.
The second reason was that Shiuse Qiangwei had been nurtured in Unyielding Soul during his youth. Mu Lingsha had taken care of him quite a bit. At the same time, they were also very good friends.
The third reason was that, as a first-rate Guild, Twilight Echo had received an invitation from the Secret Pavilion.
Because of this, Mu Lingsha had wanted to use Twilight Echo's quota to participate in the Secret Pavilion's internal auction. However, Twilight Echo had refused her request, which had given Shiuse Qiangwei a huge headache. Meanwhile, Shifeng had offered an invitation to the Secret Pavilion's internal auction, so he had brought Mu Lingsha with him.
Meanwhile, after hearing Lu Xingluo's question, Mu Lingsha remained silent for a long time.
Just as Mu Lingsha was about to say something, Lu Xingluo shifted his gaze towards Shifeng and Gentle Snow, who were both at a loss.
"It seems that you two don't know about this matter. Alright, then. I'll treat it as if the Ling YI Society doesn't know about this matter, and I'll overlook your crimes. Afterward, please inform the Secret Pavilion's guards to escort Miss Mu out of the Secret Pavilion. As for the loss of your temporary replacement, I'll send you one million Credits as compensation," Lu Xingluo said as he glanced at Mu Lingsha. He then stood up and prepared to leave.
Hearing Lu Xingluo's words, Mu Lingsha felt as if her entire body had collapsed.
In the Secret Pavilion's internal auction, no one else had the right to question the people that the invited guests brought to the Secret Pavilion. However, the invited guests were allowed to escort the guests out.
The Starline Corporation's influence was immense. Due to the Corporation's influence, even the Secret Pavilion had not invited Unyielding Soul to participate in the auction, not to mention the Ling YI Society.
Meanwhile, Shiuse Qiangwei's complexion turned ashen. He never thought that he would be discovered even in such a situation.
Mu Lingsha was her good friend, and she was also indebted to the Ling YI Society. For a moment, she was at a loss as to what to do.
Just as Lu Xingluo and the others were about to leave the private reception room, a voice suddenly came from inside, echoing throughout the room.
"One million Credits? Chief Lu sure is generous. Unfortunately, our Ling YI Society is too poor to afford such a thing. Since there's nothing else, we'll take our leave. "
Although the voice was calm, it was deeply imprinted in the minds of everyone present.
Shiuse Qiangwei, Mu Lingsha, and Liang Jing could not help but turn to stare at the Shifeng who had spoken.
Meanwhile, Gentle Snow, who stood beside Shi Feng, shook her head and revealed a bitter smile.
Although Gentle Snow revealed a distressed expression, a hint of joy and excitement flashed in her eyes.
Back then, it was precisely because of this that she had chosen to join the Ling YI Society. Now that the normal period had passed, and the Ling YI Society continued to grow, Shifeng had not changed. Things were still the same as before.
Although doing so would bring her a lot of trouble, she liked it.
"Guild Leader …" Shiuse Qiangwei was deeply moved when he saw Shifeng's emotionless expression.
Meanwhile, Liang Jing's mouth was wide open. She did not know what had happened, but she knew very well how frightening the Starline Corporation was. Going against Lu Xingluo, Starline's representative, would definitely result in a disaster. A disaster that would make even Chairman Xiao despair …
Upon hearing Shifeng's words, Lu Xingluo, who had just arrived at the door, suddenly stopped in his tracks. Thinking that he had misheard, Lu Xingluo turned to look at Shifeng, who had already stood up, and said, "Young man, are you trying to reject my goodwill?"
Lu Xingluo's words were simple and calm. However, the coldness in his tone froze the air in the room, making it difficult for Liang Jing to breathe.
The pressure in these words made Liang Jing's entire body tremble.
Lu Xingluo was just an ordinary person. However, he represented a colossus. If he wanted to crush the Big Dipper Group, he could do so in a matter of minutes.
"I appreciate your kindness, but an outsider like you has no right to criticize our Ling YI Society's matters," Lu Xingluo replied coldly. After saying so, he led Shiuse Qiangwei and the others out of the private reception room.
Suddenly, only Lu Xingluo and the tall man behind him remained in the room.
"Guild Leader, do you need us to take action?" the tall man asked quietly.
"No. This is the Secret Pavilion's territory. Naturally, we'll let them do it. Go and inform the Secret Pavilion that I don't wish to see the Ling YI Society at the auction!" Lu Xingluo said coldly as he watched Shifeng and the others disappear from the room.
