The Shifeng's arrival caused a commotion in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Residence. Everyone was discussing the Shifeng's arrival.
"Hei Yan must be insane! He actually dares to show up here?!"
"With so many people watching, I'm afraid I won't even have the courage to approach Dragonheart City. Isn't he worried that he'll lose the Fragmented Legendary item he worked so hard to obtain?"
…
Now that they had confirmed that the Shifeng carried a Fragmented Legendary item, not even the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's members had expected the item to cause such a huge commotion.
When the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion's experts saw over a thousand players following behind Shi Feng, they felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. Moreover, every one of these players made no effort to conceal their strength.
"Hei Yan is too arrogant! You've killed one of War Blood's members, yet you still dare to appear before us! You really don't take War Blood seriously! " A female Ranger standing beside Blood Oath said darkly. She carried an ancient, crystalline bow on her back and wore silver chainmail.
Although this female Ranger looked ordinary and could barely be considered a beauty, she radiated a faint aura of blood, which gave her a seductive aura. Many of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's members couldn't help but steal a few more glances at her.
However, they only dared to steal a few more glances.
After all, this female Ranger was one of War Blood's four vice commanders, the Hunting Demoness Ink Feather. Although she hadn't reached the Domain Realm yet, due to her Half-elf Bloodline and Ancient Legacy, her combat power rivaled that of Domain Realm experts. Moreover, she ranked among the top five snipers on Dragonheart Island. She had killed countless experts at sea, including many Domain Realm experts.
"Forget about Feather for now," Blood Oath said, glancing at Blood Oath. He then said, "This is Dragonheart City. It's not suitable for us to take action here. Lock onto his soul aura for now. We'll deal with him later."
Blood Oath had already learned about Autumn Plant's battle from his subordinates. The Shifeng was indeed very strong, but the fact that he had dared to kill one of War Blood's vice commanders had already spread throughout Dragonheart City. In Blood Oath's opinion, the Shifeng was no different from a dead man.
"I understand." Ink Feather nodded, no longer saying anything.
When Lu Xingluo heard Blood Oath's words, he couldn't help his delight.
The exploration of the ancient civilization's ruins was still ongoing, and he didn't have enough manpower to deal with the Shifeng. However, now that War Blood was willing to lend him a hand, he couldn't ask for more.
Very few powers on Dragonheart Island could compare to War Blood when it came to naval combat. This was also why Lu Xingluo wanted to partner with War Blood.
As the Shifeng entered Dragonheart City's Residence, Nine Dragons Emperor shifted his gaze to Phoenix Rain. Several powerful Guild upper echelons and two Guild Leaders from first-rate Guilds stood beside Phoenix Rain. However, Nine Dragons Emperor's gaze was filled with pity and ridicule.
"Phoenix Rain, your previous investment has paid off, but it's a pity that your success is due to the same person!"
The Shifeng's arrival had indeed exceeded Nine Dragons Emperor's expectations. However, Ling Yi had offended Dragonheart Island's various major powers. He'd be lucky if he didn't become a burden to Phoenix Rain, much less help her.
"So, he's Hei Yan?" Graceful Moon asked as she glanced at the Shifeng before shifting her gaze to Phoenix Rain. Shaking her head, she said, "It seems that this is as far as you go."
Although she could sense a significant amount of pressure from the Shifeng, proving that the Shifeng was indeed powerful, the Great Pavilion Master's position wasn't decided by a single person. At the end of the day, both sides would have to rely on their foundations and influence.
Graceful Moon knew that Phoenix Rain had refused to partner with Starlink and had no intention of dealing with Ling Yi, which had given Nine Dragons Emperor a chance.
However, Phoenix Rain had given up on Starlink, which was currently on the rise, for the sake of a Guild that wasn't even a superpower.
Seeing this, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's upper echelons and Grand Elders couldn't help but sympathize with Phoenix Rain.
"It seems the Great Pavilion Master's position is already decided."
"It's a pity. Phoenix Rain is clearly stronger than Nine Dragons Emperor, but she has to contend with Ling Yi, who has offended Dragonheart City's various major powers, and Starlink and War Blood, which are growing stronger by the day. Even if the Great Pavilion Master is a fool, he won't choose Phoenix Rain as his new Great Pavilion Master."
Everyone present had high hopes for Phoenix Rain, but the gap between her and Nine Dragons Emperor was obvious. One could say that this Grand Elder meeting was nothing more than a formality.
While the spectators discussed among themselves, Shi Feng arrived before Phoenix Rain.
"President Hei Yan, I've troubled you this time."
Phoenix Rain was quite happy and grateful to Shifeng's arrival.
After all, Shifeng had risked the pursuit of the various major powers to come here. Not everyone could do the same. Moreover, he had obtained a Fragmented Legendary item, which would be of great help to him when exploring new maps and completing high-level quests. It would also be of great help to him during his Tier 3 Promotion Quest.
"You're too kind. Phoenix Pavilion Master, you've helped Ling Yi a lot. Now that you're competing for the position of Great Pavilion Master, I have to come," Shifeng said.
If not for Phoenix Rain's investment and cooperation, Ling Yi wouldn't have reached its current scale.
"Thank you, President Hei Yan. The meeting is about to begin. Let's go in together." Phoenix Rain looked at Shifeng gratefully. However, she no longer held any hope for the Great Pavilion Master. She was simply making a final struggle.
After saying so, Phoenix Rain led Shifeng and the others into the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Guild Hall. The Pavilion's Grand Elders and upper echelons followed suit.
The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Guild Hall was a four-story Advanced Guild Hall. It might not be as luxurious as the Guild Halls of other NPC cities, but in Dragonheart City, it was extremely luxurious. Many first-rate Guilds on Dragonheart Island couldn't even afford a Guild Residence, let alone an Advanced Guild Hall.
As Phoenix Rain and Shifeng entered the top-floor meeting room, they were greeted by the sight of over a hundred people seated inside. Even the weakest of these people was Level 87, and they wore Level 85 Fine-Gold Equipment. Even the weakest among them was a Refinement Realm expert. Many of them even had two or three pieces of Epic Equipment. This was a testament to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's foundations.
Meanwhile, inside the conference hall, Phoenix Rain and Nine Dragons Emperor sat on opposite sides of the hall with a clear distinction between them.
After waiting for a moment, the doors to the conference hall's lounge opened, and an old man walked out. This old man was a Level 88 Summoner, and he wore robes that resembled a nebula. He also wielded a Replica of the Legendary Staff of Spirit Summoning. Even War Blood's commander, Blood Oath, paled in comparison to the old man's aura.
As soon as this elderly man appeared, the meeting room fell silent.
This old man was none other than Ku Rong, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion's Great Pavilion Master. Meanwhile, two men stood behind Ku Rong. These two men also radiated extraordinary auras. Although they were only Level 87, they were still Domain Realm experts.
Ku Rong sat in the Guild Leader's seat while the two men stood guard beside him. None of the Guild's upper echelons or Grand Elders dared to utter a single word. Instead, they quietly waited for Ku Rong to speak.
"I believe that you already know the contents of this meeting. Due to my age, I can no longer manage the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. Hence, today, I will select a successor to the position of Great Pavilion Master," Ku Rong said. "As the successor to the position of Great Pavilion Master, one must make significant contributions to the Guild and bring a better future and development for the Guild. I believe that you all already know this. Hence, I propose that Nine Dragons Emperor be the successor to the position of Great Pavilion Master. If there are no objections, then this matter is settled."
The Guild's upper echelons and Grand Elders weren't surprised to hear Ku Rong's words. As for Nine Dragons Emperor, a hint of ecstasy appeared on his face. He had been waiting for this moment for far too long.
At this moment, a low voice suddenly reverberated in the conference hall.
"I have an objection."
Although this person's voice wasn't loud, his words silenced the lively meeting room. Everyone couldn't help but turn toward the voice's origin.
They were all shocked!
