Feng Xuanyang's words could be said to be filled with temptation.
Dark Star was the number one Guild in the eastern region of Starmoon Kingdom. Just this title alone was enough to make countless people's blood boil.
Back then, it might have been these words that had tempted Lone Tyrant, causing him to agree to cooperate with Underworld.
Under the banner of the number one player on the Ranking List, in addition to Underworld's secret support, Dark Star had become a powerful Guild, second only to Ouroboros in fame and influence.
"So, that's the reason." Shifeng suddenly came to a realization.
He finally understood why Dark Star had suddenly become so powerful, and why so many experts had appeared. It turned out that Underworld was secretly helping them.
However, now that Ling YI Society had a Guild Residence, it had disrupted Underworld's original plan of supporting Dark Star. Hence, Underworld had approached him to invest in Ling YI Society.
Shi Feng could not help but admit that Underworld was truly amazing.
They were willing to give up all their previous investments to support a new Guild. In the eyes of outsiders, such a decision was either foolish or foolish. However, Shifeng knew that Underworld's decision was very wise. With a single glance, Underworld could tell how important a Guild Residence was to a Guild. If he were in Underworld's shoes, he would have done the same.
"Master Hei Yan, you should know that there are over 20 cities in the eastern region of the Starmoon Kingdom. If Master Hei Yan agrees, you will become the absolute overlord of these cities in the future. Moreover, although Underworld is only investing in Ling Yi, we will not interfere in any way. Instead, we will provide you with a large amount of funds and talents." Feng Xuanyang slowly said in a tempting tone. "Underworld has long since decided that as long as Master Hei Yan agrees, we will immediately invest one billion Credits, provide you with 100 Gold Coins every week, and provide you with 100 experts. We will also provide you with a team of Underworld Guards to command. If Ling Yi develops well, we will invest even more in the future. "
"Master Hei Yan, what do you think?"
Seeing Shifeng remain silent, Feng Xuanyang was certain that Shifeng was hesitating. Hence, he decided to add fuel to the fire. In God's Domain, wasn't the purpose of establishing a Guild?
For a newly established Guild … One billion Credits was undoubtedly an astronomical price. Even a large corporation in a city could not easily take out one billion Credits. Although due to God's Domain's growing popularity, more corporations were investing in God's Domain, and as a result, the value of Guilds in God's Domain had abruptly increased. However, a third-rate Guild with 20,000 to 30,000 members could only be purchased for 200 to 300 million Credits.
The Ling YI Society only had a few thousand members. Although it was somewhat famous, there were also some masters. It wasn't worth that much, but with a Guild Encampment, its value would at least double. Four hundred to five hundred million was the limit, so there was no reason to reject the offer of one billion Shifeng.
"How much would President Feng like to invest?" Shifeng asked with a smile.
"It's not that high. It's only 50%. However, 50% of the shares can be exchanged for one billion Credits and the help of many experts. I don't think the other corporations will offer such a high price," Feng Xuanyang said confidently.
Shifeng rubbed his chin and pondered for a while. Then, he slowly said, "The proposal is very tempting, but 50% is too high. 10% at most, no higher. "
When Feng Xuanyang proposed 50%, it seemed like they would split it equally. However, it was just to make him lower his guard. In reality, 50% of the shares was already equivalent to controlling the entire Ling Yi. After all, when he established the Guild, he didn't hold 100% of the shares. A small portion of the shares had been given to Shiuse Qiangwei.
If Feng Xuanyang bought another 1% of the shares from Shiuse Qiangwei, he would have 51% of the shares. The entire Ling Yi would be under Feng Xuanyang's control. Shifeng had already suffered such a loss in his previous life. Naturally, he wouldn't let such a thing happen in this life.
"10%?" Feng Xuanyang couldn't believe his ears.
He wanted to spend one billion Credits. Yet, he was only offering 10% of the shares. Did he really think that the Ling YI Society was the number one Guild in the Starmoon Kingdom?
"President Feng must think that the shares I'm offering are too little," Shifeng said with a smile. "It's normal for you to think so. However, what I want to say is that one billion Credits really isn't a lot. I'm already giving Guild Leader Feng a lot of face by offering 10% of the shares. If it were someone else, they might only get 1%. "
Shifeng was not exaggerating.
Shifeng already possessed over 10,000 Gold Coins. If converted to Credits, that would be more than 200 million Credits. Not to mention, this income continued to increase every day. The profits from the Starstreak Trading Firm alone far exceeded one billion Credits. Not to mention, they also had a Guild Residence like the Purple Sun Mansion.
The Purple Sun Mansion could be said to be the best Guild Residence in White River City. Moreover, it occupied a very large area. It was much larger than a football field that could accommodate 50,000 people. Even ten years after God's Domain's launch, the Purple Sun Mansion was still worth more than ten billion Credits.
It was not that Shifeng was looking down on one billion Credits. This was indeed an astronomical sum. However, it was not worth 10% of Ling Yi's shares. 1% was already giving a lot of face, not to mention 10% …
"Master Hei Yan, there should be a limit to your jokes. Do you really think that I am easy to bully by toying with me like this?" Feng Xuanyang's expression suddenly changed, his tone as cold as ice.
"Guild Leader Feng, you jest. What I said was the truth. If Guild Leader Feng feels that it is inappropriate, then let's forget about this matter." Shifeng shook his head and laughed. He, too, was sincerely looking for a business partner to invest in.
Unfortunately, the falling flowers were unrequited.
If he were to reject this investment, or say that Feng Xuanyang's request was too high, Feng Xuanyang would most likely still be smiling.
This was the frightening aspect of the truth. Hence, people would often believe lies.
After all, the truth was much crueler than lies.
If Shiuse Qiangwei were here, he would definitely scold Shifeng for speaking the truth.
Following which, Shifeng left the room, leaving behind an enraged Feng Xuanyang.
"South Wolf, get in here!" Feng Xuanyang bellowed from inside the room.
"Young Master Feng, why are you so angry? Could it be that Hei Yan doesn't know how to appreciate favors?" South Wolf hurriedly entered the room.
"Go and tell Lone Tyrant that we can take action now. I do not wish to see Ling Yi's Guild appear in White River City again." Feng Xuanyang no longer had his previous gentleness. Instead, he revealed his ferocious nature. "Since they are unwilling to cooperate with Underworld, regardless of the reason, they must be eliminated. White River City does not need a Guild that Underworld cannot control."
"Understood, I'll go and inform them now." South Wolf licked his dry lips, excitement filling his face.
After Shifeng left the Advanced Bar, he used the Teleportation Hall. After spending 32 Silver Coins, he arrived at the capital, Star-Moon City, the most prosperous city in the Starmoon Kingdom.
Compared to White River City, the competition in Star-Moon City was much more intense. There were already more than five first-rate Guilds in Star-Moon City, and countless second and third-rate Guilds. Meanwhile, there were more than 3,000,000 players gathered in Star-Moon City. The number of players in Star-Moon City could easily rival the total number of players in all eight cities surrounding White River City.
