Dawn Ridge, Mu Tian City.
The Dawn Ridge was only one map away from a Level 100 neutral map in the Apocalypse Empire, and it had long since become a hub for mainstream players. Many superpowers had established Guild Towns and Cities in the area, but among these Guild Towns and Cities, Twilight City was the most popular. The city's player population exceeded three million, rivaling that of an NPC city.
The Dawn Ridge was a hilly region. A portion of the region was close to the sea, and Twilight City had been built on a hill not far from the coast. Not only could players travel across the sea with ease, but they could also enter Level 100 neutral maps very quickly. This would be a very convenient location for players who frequently operated out at sea.
In addition, transportation by sea was far more convenient than on land. Many merchant players visited Twilight City to conduct business.
Aside from its convenient transportation, Twilight City was also the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Guild headquarters. It was also the city that the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion had operated for the longest time. Twilight City was far safer than the Dawn Ridge's other Guild Towns and Cities.
At this moment, in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Guild Residence, flashes of light appeared as Feng Qianyu and the others walked out of the teleportation array. When the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's members on duty saw Feng Qianyu's group, they couldn't help but respect them. The young men and women who had recently joined the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion were especially mesmerized by Feng Qianyu's crimson mage robes, who exuded a mysterious and seductive aura.
"The Pavilion Master is amazing! Not only is he so charming, but he also completed a difficult Tier 3 quest on his first try. He's even reached Level 103 now! It would be great if I could join the Pavilion Master's personal guard. That way, I'd be able to follow him every day!" a Level 100 female Elementalist exclaimed as she stared at Feng Qianyu.
"Stop dreaming. If you want to become the Pavilion Master's personal guard, you'll have to rank among the top few newcomers. You've seen the top few monsters before. Even if we had the same Basic Attributes, we wouldn't be a match for them," the Berserker party leader said as he rolled his eyes at the female Elementalist.
Once upon a time, he too had such a dream. However, as he continued to train and improve, he felt more and more despair. This was because the gap in strength between him and those genius rookies was far greater than the difference in weapons and equipment.
In an ordinary Guild, a Refinement Realm expert could become one of the Guild's core members. However, for a super-first-rate Guild like the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, reaching the Refinement Realm was only the starting point. Only Void Realm experts could become one of the Guild's core members.
As for such an expert, among the thousands of newcomers who passed the assessment every year, only those who ranked in the top ten could possibly reach such a level.
As a veteran super-first-rate Guild, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion had very high standards for the newcomers it nurtured. In the outside world, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call these newcomers experts. However, in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, these newcomers were nothing.
While the two on-duty members chatted, a commotion broke out in the Guild Hall. A dozen or so figures descended from the second floor of the Guild Hall. Leading the group was a beautiful woman, and Nine Dragons Emperor stood beside her.
This beautiful woman wore a dark blue leather jacket, and a bright red short sword hung from her waist. The scabbard of the short sword was engraved with ancient magic runes, causing the surrounding magic energy to uncontrollably gather towards the short sword.
Due to this woman's appearance, the Mana in the Guild Hall seemed to have found its master. It felt as if this woman had complete control over the Mana.
"A special Bloodline Legacy?" Surprise flashed in Phoenix Rain's eyes as she looked at the woman who had just walked out.
As an Elementalist, she was extraordinarily sensitive to the elements of Mana. This was especially true after her Tier 3 Legacy, which had given her a new understanding of Mana.
The beautiful woman before her was clearly not a magical class, but a Tier 3 Assassin. Yet, the woman's affinity with the elements of Mana was even higher than hers. It was as if the woman was a darling of Mana.
Moreover, aside from this woman, the several people standing behind her were also in a similar situation. Only, they were slightly inferior to the woman before him.
"Rain, you're here. Let me introduce you. This is Cold Shadow, one of Mythology's Vice Guild Leaders." When Nine Dragons Emperor saw Feng Qianyu walk out of the Teleportation Hall, an indescribable joy appeared on his face. He even took the initiative to introduce Cold Shadow.
When Nine Dragons Emperor saw Mythology's upper echelons, he had been shocked. He had thought that something big had happened.
Mythology was one of the Five Great Super Guilds.
Meanwhile, the Five Great Super Guilds had stood at the top of the virtual gaming world for many years. No Guild had ever been able to shake their position.
There were even rumors in the industry that the Five Great Super Guilds were on a completely different level from the other Super Guilds.
"Hello, I am Feng Qianyu, the Pavilion Master of the Phoenix Pavilion," Feng Qianyu introduced himself as he looked at Cold Shadow.
"I've heard of you. The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's current strength at sea is largely due to the Phoenix Pavilion Master's contributions. In fact, before Ling Yi's rise to prominence, the Phoenix Pavilion Master was the first to partner with the unknown Ling Yi and obtained a significant portion of Candlelight's shares. Now, Candlelight covers several kingdoms and empires. The Pavilion's daily income is significant. I'm afraid that few people in God's Domain can compare to the Phoenix Pavilion Master's insight," Cold Shadow said, smiling as she looked at Feng Qianyu.
"You flatter me, Vice Guild Leader Cold Shadow," Feng Qianyu said calmly. "May I know what business you have in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, Vice Guild Leader Cold Shadow?"
She couldn't make sense of Mythology's arrival at all.
Mythology had been developing on the western continent all this time, yet it had suddenly come to the eastern continent to look for them. It was simply inconceivable. It was as if an international giant had suddenly visited a small domestic company.
However, based on the Great Pavilion Master's words, Cold Shadow knew that Mythology had come for her. She had a faint feeling that something was amiss. Moreover, based on Nine Dragons Emperor's attitude, she was even more certain that Mythology had come with ill intentions.
"Actually, it's not a big deal," Cold Shadow said, chuckling. Chuckling, Cold Shadow said, "Mythology wishes to develop on the eastern continent and explore the eastern continent. One of the Guilds we have set our sights on is Ling Yi's Candlelight. However, as you know, Ling Yi's Guild practically never sells its shares. Hence, Mythology wishes to purchase Candlelight's shares from you. As for the price, we are willing to pay double the market price. Moreover, Mythology is also willing to sell some of the western continent's materials and products to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion long-term. This is a win-win situation for both of us.
"I've already spoken to your Great Pavilion Master about this matter. He has stated that Candlelight's shares belong to you and that it is up to you to decide. If you are willing, the Great Pavilion Master will be more than willing to cooperate with Mythology. Hence, I've come to discuss this matter with you, Phoenix Pavilion Master."
"Rain, this is the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's first cooperation with Mythology. Many of the Guild's Grand Elders are watching. Don't let them and the Great Pavilion Master down," Nine Dragons Emperor advised earnestly as he looked at Feng Qianyu.
However, Blue Phoenix, who stood behind Feng Qianyu, glared at Nine Dragons Emperor coldly. She wanted nothing more than to kill the Swordsman right now.
Whether one sold their shares or not was up to them.
However, there had to be a reason why Ling Yi wasn't willing to sell her shares. If they sold their shares, their relationship with Ling Yi would fall apart.
Yet, Nine Dragons Emperor insisted that Feng Qianyu sell her shares for the sake of the Guild's interests. Regardless of whether Feng Qianyu succeeded or not, it wouldn't benefit Blue Phoenix Pavilion.
