After snapping out of his daze, Joking Scholar immediately opened the system communication interface and reported the situation to Twilight Echo's Guild Leader, Glorious Echo.
"Guild Leader, that Lone Tyrant clearly does not place Twilight Echo in his eyes. He has already steeled his heart to scam us of 5,000 Gold Coins." Joking Scholar reported the situation to Glorious Echo. Although he was Glorious Echo's trusted aide, he had caused such a huge loss to the Guild this time. He did not know what Glorious Echo would do to him.
"I understand. A third-rate Guild is not worth my effort to deal with. Let's have Brilliant Wargod teach the corporation behind Dark Star a lesson in the real world. If Lone Tyrant still has a shred of rationality left, he should know what to do. Trying to take 5,000 Gold Coins or 50 million Credits from me won't be so easy."
"However, Scholar, your performance this time has greatly disappointed me. After you return from the auction, make a deal with Blue Wave."
"Yes, Guild Leader. I will make a deal with Blue Wave."
Although Glorious Echo did not reprimand Joking Scholar, he had made his intentions clear. Joking Scholar instantly aged by over a decade. Even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept this outcome.
At this moment, Joking Scholar hated Lone Tyrant to the bone. If not for Lone Tyrant, he would not have fallen to such a state.
Unless he had some sort of shocking performance that could bring massive benefits to the Guild, he would no longer be valued by the Guild.
"This won't do! I can't just let this go! As long as I can buy something that surprises the Guild Leader in the Blackwing Auction, the Guild Leader might cancel my punishment!" Joking Scholar's final ray of hope rekindled in his heart.
Currently, he had 8 Gold Coins from the Guild. Including the 10 Gold he had previously obtained, he had a total of 18 Gold Coins. With so much money, even other first-rate Guilds could not compete with him.
Elsewhere, Shifeng had already returned to his original appearance as Hei Yan as he arrived at the Blackwing Auction House.
Shifeng's plan this time had been very successful. Not only had they earned a large sum of Gold Coins and wealth, but they had also earned a large sum of money. They had also attracted a leviathan to Dark Star.
As a top-tier first-rate Guild, Twilight Echo's Guild Leader, Glorious Echo, possessed over 20 years of virtual gaming experience. He had led Twilight Echo in the virtual gaming world for over a decade. Not only did he possess abundant experience, but he was also extremely skilled.
Except for this powerful president. There were also dozens of top-tier experts, every one of which had the potential to become a Tier 4 powerhouse in the future. In addition, there were three Tier 6 God-ranked powerhouses, including the Guild Leader, Glorious Echo, Shiuse Qiangwei, and one of Shiuse Qiangwei's good friends.
Hence, Twilight Echo was able to stand out among the many overlords, surpassing Ouroboros and becoming one of the Super Guilds in God's Domain. Twilight Echo had even established a massive virtual empire in God's Domain. An existence that Shifeng could only look up to.
Of course, the current Twilight Echo could not be underestimated, either. After all, Twilight Echo was a top-tier first-rate Guild with an extraordinary background. It had the support of several corporations, and it had plenty of funds. It also had a lot of influence in the real world. If Twilight Echo were to deal with a third-rate Guild like Dark Star, it would definitely cause Dark Star a lot of trouble in the real world.
Hence, Shifeng had disguised himself as Lone Tyrant to toy with Twilight Echo.
Although Lone Tyrant's backer was also very strong, Shifeng could not tell who was supporting Dark Star. However, since a top-tier first-rate Guild was suppressing Dark Star's funds, he could, more or less, tell what kind of power supported Dark Star. This way, he could make preparations to deal with Twilight Echo.
Just as Shifeng sat in the auction hall and waited for the auction to begin …
Shifeng's system communicator rang. Meanwhile, the person contacting him was none other than Shiuse Qiangwei, whom he had been unable to contact all this time.
"Miss Aqua, you really are a busy person. You actually let someone else take over such an important transaction," Shifeng teased.
Shifeng knew very well that Glorious Echo must have pulled some tricks to prevent Shiuse Qiangwei from completing the transaction.
After all, Shiuse Qiangwei had been in the limelight recently.
As the saying went, the hunter would shoot the bird that sticks out. Glorious Echo must have felt that Shiuse Qiangwei had affected his position. Hence, he had done such a thing.
"Master Hei Yan, you jest. I only managed to enter God's Domain after much difficulty. It seems that I am still too late, "Shiuse Qiangwei's tone was filled with helplessness.
"Did something happen?" Shifeng asked curiously.
Hearing Shiuse Qiangwei's tone, Shifeng could tell that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Otherwise, why would a strong woman reveal a trace of despair and helplessness?
After all was said and done, Shiuse Qiangwei was Twilight Echo's Honorary Elder. His position was extremely high. Moreover, Shiuse Qiangwei's family background was not simple. His family was one of the major corporations supporting Twilight Echo, and he held a lot of shares in the company. Unless Glorious Echo had gone mad, he would not act so ruthlessly against Shiuse Qiangwei.
Right now, Twilight Echo was simply trying to steal some business for the sake of Twilight Echo's development. Hence, Twilight Echo would not say anything. At most, Twilight Echo would be slightly dissatisfied.
"It's nothing. I just left Twilight Echo," Shiuse Qiangwei said casually.
"What? You left Twilight Echo? Did your family not say anything? "Shifeng thought that he had misheard.
Although Shiuse Qiangwei appeared very casual, Shifeng could feel the pain in Shiuse Qiangwei's heart. After all, he had experienced the same thing. However, the corporation behind Shiuse Qiangwei actually dared to chase Shiuse Qiangwei out of Twilight Echo. Glorious Echo must have lost his mind. How could he dare?
"My family forced me to do something I did not want to do. I refused, so I was chased out of Twilight Echo. In a fit of anger, I ran away from home as well. In order to buy a God's Domain Helmet, I became a pauper. I wonder if Master Hei Yan is willing to take me in?" Shiuse Qiangwei laughed as he joked.
She was only joking. After all was said and done, she was the young lady of a major corporation. She had accumulated quite a bit of savings. Even if she ran away from home and did not rely on her parents, her bank account would be enough for an ordinary person to live their entire life.
"Sure. Of course, I welcome a powerful helper like Miss Aqua. An annual salary of one million and 5% of Twilight Echo's shares. I wonder if Miss Aqua is willing to join us?" Shifeng naturally knew that Shiuse Qiangwei was joking. However, Shifeng did not want to miss out on such a good opportunity. Who knew how long he would have to wait before he encountered such a good opportunity again?
Hearing Shifeng's words, Shiuse Qiangwei was stunned.
Normally, Shifeng would be very sincere if he was willing to offer an annual salary of one million. Yet, he was even willing to offer 5% of Twilight Echo's shares.
This situation confused Shiuse Qiangwei.
Originally, she had planned to start from scratch and open her own Workshop. After all, she still had some loyal subordinates who had left Twilight Echo with her. With these subordinates, she could establish a decent Workshop. It was only a matter of time before she established a powerful Guild to contend with Twilight Echo. At the same time, she would let her family know that their decision was wrong.
The only problem was that Twilight Echo was targeting her. Surviving in the Storm Empire was very difficult. Because of this, Shiuse Qiangwei had a headache. She was very clear on how powerful Twilight Echo was.
