Upon hearing the Shifeng's words, Nine Dragons Emperor's expression darkened. He could not help but shoot the Shifeng an angry glare.
Zero Wing's forces had even made Twilight City feel as if they were facing a great enemy.
How could this not disturb their discussion?
Moreover, Nine Dragons Emperor had gone to great lengths to incite the Guild members present, making them yearn for a partnership with Mythology. Now, however, not only had they been shocked by the Shifeng's appearance, but they had even forgotten about their partnership with Mythology.
"No, President Hei Yan, you haven't disturbed us. Moreover, you've arrived at just the right time." When Feng Qianyu heard Shifeng's words, a rare smile appeared on his face. He then shifted his gaze to Cold Shadow, who stood beside him. Taking a deep breath, he said confidently, "Vice Guild Leader Cold Shadow, although I very much wish to partner with Mythology, forgive me for not selling Candlelight's shares."
Following Feng Qianyu's righteous refusal, the Residence's plaza fell silent. The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's members also turned to look at Feng Qianyu with complicated expressions. Surprisingly, however, nobody made a fuss.
If Feng Qianyu had refused to cooperate with Mythology, they would've doubted Feng Qianyu's ability as Pavilion Master.
However, now that the Ling YI Society's three Flying Ships had appeared before them, they couldn't bring themselves to question Feng Qianyu's decision.
These were Flying Ships they were talking about. Moreover, based on Ling Yi's attitude, she would definitely obtain more in the future. Most likely, no superpower would dare to provoke Ling Yi, who had complete control over the air. This was especially true when it came to sea routes. The various superpowers' fleets were nothing compared to Ling Yi's fleet.
With a safe transportation line at sea, the Dragon-phoenix Pavilion's maritime resources would be guaranteed in the future.
In fact, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion could even use Ling Yi's deterrence at sea to expand its influence at sea, further developing the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's naval forces. After all, there was a massive difference between a single Flying Ship's range at sea and three Flying Ships'.
If they sold the Candlelight Trading Firm's shares, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion would have a hard time relying on Zero Wing's deterrence. After all, the relationship between an ally with shares and an ally without shares was completely different. This was especially true if Zero Wing refused to sell the Candlelight Trading Firm's shares to others. The Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion would no longer be an ally.
"Rain, you need to think this through. You should be aware of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's current situation in the Apocalypse Empire. Many Otherworlds' powers are already eyeing us. Moreover, you should know why we've taken the risk of transferring Twilight City here," Nine Dragons Pavilion said as the members of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion fell silent. "If we can cooperate with Mythology and obtain the Combat Runes, the Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion will be able to establish a foothold in Level 100 neutral maps quickly. With the resources and equipment available in Level 100 neutral maps, we'll be able to solidify our position in the Apocalypse Empire. Are you really going to give up on this opportunity?" Nine Dragons Emperor raised his voice as he looked at the silent Dragon-Phoenix Pavilion members.
Before Nine Dragons Pavilion had seen Ling Yi's three Flying Ships, he had only hoped to make Feng Qianyu lose the support of the people in the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. Now, however, he was determined to sever ties between Feng Qianyu and Ling Yi.
After all, Ling Yi and Feng Qianyu were absolute allies. If Ling Yi was strong, Feng Qianyu would be strong. On the other hand, Mythology might be able to temporarily raise Feng Qianyu's position in the Guild, but Mythology wasn't an ally of Feng Qianyu. Instead, it was a partnership with the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. Nine Dragons Pavilion had plenty of opportunities.
If it were Ling Yi, Nine Dragons Pavilion wouldn't stand a chance.
Fortunately, Mythology had offered an item that the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion desperately needed. The Guild Elders present couldn't help but be tempted.
Although the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion was a super-first-rate Guild, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion was only an average superpower among the various superpowers in God's Domain. Meanwhile, an average superpower occupied both the Black Dragon Empire and the Apocalypse Empire. Moreover, the average superpower occupied both empires' resources and territories.
Now, however, Otherworld powers had invaded the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. Many of these superpowers had recently risen to prominence, and this made things difficult for the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion.
The Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion had gone all-out in order to secure Twilight City's dominance over Level 100 neutral maps. However, the other superpowers weren't incompetent, either. They had invested plenty of resources and combat power into the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's development.
With the Combat Rune, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's ability to explore Level 100 neutral maps would increase significantly. This was something the Guild Elders longed for.
When Nine Dragons Emperor spoke, the several Guild Elders beside him frowned. They turned to Feng Qianyu, gesturing for Feng Qianyu to reconsider.
The Combat Rune would be of great help to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's exploration of Level 100 neutral maps. In fact, the benefits they could reap from the Combat Rune might even surpass that of Ling Yi. After all, the Flying Ship belonged to Ling Yi, not the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's. Moreover, if they rejected Mythology's offer, they'd be humiliating the Guild.
Mythology was one of the virtual gaming world's Five Great Titans. The fact that it was willing to cooperate with the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion was already a huge show of respect. If they rejected Mythology's offer, they'd be slapping the Guild in the face. Mythology definitely wouldn't let the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion off easy. While Mythology's main base of operations was on the western continent, it was still one of the Five Great Titans. If it wanted to mess with the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, it'd be child's play.
Feng Qianyu's expression darkened. He hadn't expected Nine Dragons Emperor to play such a trick.
Seeing that he couldn't sway the Guild members, Nine Dragons Emperor immediately turned to the Guild Elders. Although these Elders didn't care much about the Guild's affairs anymore, they were from the same generation as the Great Pavilion Master. Their influence in the Guild was immense. Even the Great Pavilion Master had to consider their words carefully.
"Nine Dragons Emperor sure is powerful. It's no wonder why he was able to defend so much of the Black Dragon Empire's territory in the past!" Shifeng couldn't help but glance at Nine Dragons Emperor, who was currently sneering.
The Black Dragon Empire's territory had many Otherworld Passages, and the competition between them had been intense. Aside from Super Guilds, no superpower was confident of stopping the invasion of Otherworld forces, yet Nine Dragons Emperor and the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion had done so. They hadn't even lost much of the territory they had originally occupied.
"Phoenix Pavilion Master, don't be in such a hurry to reject our offer. Mythology is very sincere about this cooperation. If we agree, I can even suggest to the Guild Leader that we sell some Tier 3 Combat Runes to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion. With these runes, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion will gain absolute dominance in Level 100 neutral maps," Cold Shadow said, smiling faintly. She couldn't help but glance at Shifeng, who stood beside her. When she mentioned dominance, she deliberately paused for a moment.
She now had a good understanding of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's current situation. As long as she could secure Candlelight's shares, she wouldn't mind Nine Dragons Emperor using her influence to pressure Feng Qianyu.
Moreover, the items Mythology had to offer weren't something Ling Yi could compare to.
Upon hearing Cold Shadow's words, the several Guild Elders present breathed heavily, excitement flashing in their eyes.
Although they didn't know much about the western continent, they still knew a little about Tier 3 Combat Runes. Only two or three Super Guilds on the western continent could produce these runes. If they could equip the Guild's Tier 3 experts with these runes, no one in the Apocalypse Empire would be able to compete with the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion in a Level 100 neutral map like Hill of Ruins.
Moreover, with Tier 3 Combat Runes, the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion would have a much easier time developing at sea.
Just as the several Guild Elders were about to persuade Feng Qianyu, and Cold Shadow's lips curled into a smile of victory, Shifeng suddenly retrieved an ancient Magic Scroll from his bag and handed it to Feng Qianyu.
When Shifeng revealed the Magic Scroll, everyone's gazes instinctively shifted to it.
Not only did the Magic Scroll contain a massive amount of Mana, but it was also abnormally dense. It was nothing like the Magic Scrolls they normally saw.
"This is the sample we agreed on earlier. If there are no problems, we can discuss the price and proceed with the transaction," Shifeng calmly said as he pointed at the Magic Scroll.
However, when Cold Shadow heard Shifeng's words, she couldn't help but chuckle.
Did he really think that a mere Magic Scroll could compare to a Tier 3 Combat Rune? Did he really think he could save face for Feng Qianyu? He was simply ridiculous.
Meanwhile, one of the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Grand Elders, who possessed a Master Appraisal Skill, curiously appraised the Magic Scroll in Feng Qianyu's hand. Immediately, he gasped.
"An Advanced … Ancient Barrier Scroll?!"
