Haitian City's Upper Zone, North Mountain Villa District:
Shifeng couldn't believe his eyes as he looked at the three-story, luxurious mansion that occupied an area the size of two basketball courts.
"You've been living here all this time?"
Shifeng asked Ji Luorong, who was leading the way, in surprise.
The mansion before them was even more luxurious than the one the Boulder Corporation had purchased. It also occupied a much larger area. Meanwhile, the Boulder Corporation's mansion cost 30 million trade points. The mansion before them was likely even more expensive.
Meanwhile, Ji Luorong had no power or influence in the Upper Zone. She was all alone. Aside from her family group in the outside world, she had no other backing or background. Hence, Shi Feng found it hard to believe that Ji Luorong could afford such a large mansion.
Let alone Shifeng, even Muxin was surprised by Ji Luorong's decision. After all, mansions in the base layer weren't something that could be purchased just because one wanted to. Generally, one needed to have Grade 1 authority to purchase one. Meanwhile, based on the information Ji Luorong obtained, she only had Grade 2 authority. Logically, she shouldn't be qualified to purchase such a mansion.
"This is the mansion my grandfather left behind," Ji Luorong said, nodding. "Due to my family's decline, my family had no choice but to move to the outside world. However, due to my excellent mental strength talent, my family used the reserved slot my grandfather left behind to allow me to live in the Upper Zone."
Realization dawned on Shifeng when he heard Ji Luorong's explanation.
It was no wonder why the Ji Family owned a mansion in the Upper Zone. Even someone like Feng Qianyu didn't live in the Upper Zone. Instead, only Ji Luorong lived in the Upper Zone.
The Upper Zone had existed for a long time. During this time, many families had indeed declined and had no choice but to leave the Upper Zone. After all, the Upper Zone was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. If one didn't have a reserved slot or lacked mental strength talent, they wouldn't be able to stay in the Upper Zone at all.
Meanwhile, the Ji Family clearly had an extraordinary foundation. Not only did it possess such a luxurious mansion, but it also had a precious reserved slot. One could easily imagine how powerful the Ji Family had been in the Upper Zone in the past.
As for why Feng Qianyu was so powerful and had even become the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion's Pavilion Master all by himself, now that Shi Feng thought about it, it wasn't without reason.
While Ji Luorong was talking about her own matters, Ji Luorong brought the two Shifeng into the villa.
It had to be said that a large villa was indeed a large villa. It was not comparable to the houses in the residential area. Not only was it spacious, but it also had a better effect on one's mental state than the houses in the residential area. Over time, it would be of great help in improving one's mental state.
Afterward, in the villa, Shifeng began chatting with Ji Luorong. On one hand, he wanted to learn about Ji Luorong's recent situation. On the other hand, he also told Ji Luorong about Feng Qianyu's appearance in God's Domain.
Feng Qianyu's news made Ji Luorong heave a sigh of relief.
After Feng Qianyu's disappearance, Ji Luorong had grown very anxious. She had even heard that Feng Qianyu had been sent to the Upper Zone. However, despite searching the base layer, she hadn't been able to find any information about her sister. On the other hand, there was clear evidence that Feng Qianyu had been sent to the Upper Zone.
The only possibility she could think of was that her sister might have been sent to the middle layer. Hence, she had been anxious to enter the middle layer and confirm her sister's fate.
Now that she had learned that her sister, Feng Qianyu, had appeared in God's Domain and even said that her sister was relatively safe, Ji Luorong could finally relax.
"By the way, why did Lu Tiandi suddenly seek you out?" Shifeng asked Ji Luorong curiously. "Do you have some grudge with him?"
His main purpose in coming here this time was to check on Ji Luorong's situation. After all, he had already promised Feng Qianyu that he would take care of Ji Luorong.
Meanwhile, Lu Tiandi was no pushover. Anyone he targeted was no different from being targeted by a fox. Nothing good would come out of it.
"I don't have any grudge with him. In fact, this is only our second meeting," Ji Luorong said, sighing. Sighing, Ji Luorong continued, "His goal is very simple. He hopes that the Eternal Glory adventurer team I established will merge with Tremulous Clown's adventurer team."
"He wants your adventurer team to join them?" Shifeng was confused.
Tremulous Clown was no ordinary dark adventurer team. It had always been active on the western continent, and its members were incredibly strong. At its peak, the adventurer team even had three Tier 6 players and nine Tier 5 players. Not even the various superpowers dared to casually offend such a team.
In the past, many dark experts had tried to join Tremulous Clown. However, very few had succeeded. This was because Tremulous Clown's minimum requirement to join the adventurer team was Tier 4. Normally, only peak experts among Tier 4 players could join the adventurer team. It was no exaggeration to say that Tremulous Clown's selection process was extremely strict.
Shi Feng also knew a little about Ji Luorong's adventurer team. After all, Ji Luorong had been very famous in the past. Although she couldn't compare to Feng Qianyu, the Fairy Queen, she had still been a bona fide Tier 5 expert. She had only been half a step away from reaching Tier 6. The adventurer team she had established was also a well-known top adventurer team. At its peak, Eternal Glory's combat power could rival that of a first-rate Guild. Not only did the adventurer team have a Tier 6 God-ranked expert, but it also had three Tier 5 players.
Currently, however, Eternal Glory was only a relatively well-known adventurer team. Its overall strength was very weak. Most likely, the adventurer team didn't even have a single Tier 4 player, including Ji Luorong. Shi Feng found it hard to believe that Lu Tiandi wanted Ji Luorong and the others to join Tremulous Clown.
Of course, Shi Feng wasn't looking down on Ji Luorong and the others. Rather, in terms of peak combat power, Tremulous Clown was most likely just as strong as the various superpowers. In addition, Tremulous Clown also had the support of Starlink. Overall, Tremulous Clown's strength was frightening.
"With Eternal Glory's strength, Lu Tiandi indeed doesn't value our adventurer team. However, now that I think about it, what Lu Tiandi values is the special Legacies our adventurer team members obtained," Ji Luorong said. After giving the matter some thought, she continued, "Some time ago, our adventurer team ventured into an extremely special secret land. A massive World Passage was sealed inside that secret land, and we even encountered an existence that we suspected to be a Tier 6 God.
"According to the existence suspected to be a God, the seal is about to break, and the war between worlds is about to begin. Meanwhile, our adventurer team has obtained a special Legacy from this suspected God. This Legacy is a sealing magic array. By sacrificing our EXP, we can seal off an entire world for a very long time. It can be considered a means of resistance during the war between worlds," the adventurer team said.
"At that time, other players aside from our adventurer team entered that secret land as well. Now that I think about it, those players were most likely Tremulous Clown's members."
Shifeng was stunned when he heard Ji Luorong's words.
After all, he had never heard of a War of Worlds taking place in God's Domain during his previous life. However, based on Ji Luorong's words, it shouldn't be a lie. After all, he had already visited the ancient God's Domain. It wouldn't be strange for other worlds to appear in other God's Domains.
This was especially true for Hundred Ghosts's appearance. It was obvious that these people weren't from the ancient God's Domain. They were most likely from other Interstellar Continents. The so-called War of Worlds meant that God's Domain would clash with the Interstellar Continent's players.
If this were true, it would indeed be a disaster for God's Domain's main continent. After all, the Interstellar Continent's main continent had far more resources and experts than God's Domain's main continent.
If both sides started a war, God's Domain's main continent would suffer a crushing defeat. It would be very difficult for God's Domain's main continent to contend with the Interstellar Continent's experts. At that time, many superpowers would be annihilated.
Even Ling Yi would have a hard time against the Interstellar Continent's main continent's main continent.
If they could seal off an entire world, it would be of great help to a Guild.
Hence, it wasn't strange that Lu Tiandi wanted Ji Luorong and the others to join Tremulous Clown. After all, Ji Luorong and the others would be a powerful trump card in the upcoming war.
Meanwhile, Muxin's complexion also darkened when she heard Ji Luorong's words.
She, too, firmly believed that a War of Worlds would take place. After all, she, more or less, had heard some news about Hundred Ghosts. Although she wasn't certain, everything made sense after hearing Ji Luorong's words.
Originally, Frost Heaven had obtained a seat in God's Domain after much difficulty and had already entered a period of rapid development. Now that a War of Worlds had started, it would be a nightmare for Frost Heaven.
At this moment, Muxin felt somewhat fortunate. If she hadn't accompanied Shifeng to Haitian City's Upper Zone, she most likely wouldn't have known that God's Domain was about to undergo an unprecedented transformation.
If Frost Heaven didn't make plans in advance, it wasn't impossible for Frost Heaven to disappear.
While Muxin fell into deep thought, Shifeng shifted his gaze to Ji Luorong and said seriously, "Luorong, since Lu Tiandi has set his sights on you and rejected him, with his personality, it won't be long before he takes action against you. Moreover, it isn't appropriate for you to continue staying in Haitian City's Upper Zone. You'll only be safer if you move to another Upper Zone. I also have a residence in Yuantian City's Upper Zone. Although it can't compare to this place, you won't have any problems exercising there. Are you willing to move there?"
Shi Feng had a relatively good understanding of Lu Tiandi's personality. So long as Lu Tiandi recognized someone as his enemy, he would eliminate them completely. In addition, with the Starline Corporation's influence in Haitian City's Upper Zone, Ji Luorong definitely wouldn't be able to live in peace here. Only by leaving Haitian City's Upper Zone could she temporarily break away from Lu Tiandi.
"Move to Yuantian City's Upper Zone?"
Ji Luorong asked hesitantly. However, she also knew that Shifeng was right. She could no longer live peacefully in Haitian City's Upper Zone unless she moved to the middle layer. However, that was simply impossible.
"Miss Luorong, if you find it inconvenient to move to Guild Leader Shifeng's residence, you are also welcome to live in my residence. Although the Boulder Corporation isn't a match for the Starline Corporation, we still have some foundation in Yuantian City's Upper Zone," Muxin offered.
"Miss Muxin, you misunderstand. I don't find it inconvenient. I'm already satisfied with being able to move to Yuantian City's Upper Zone," Ji Luorong said, shaking her head. "I'm just worried about my companions. If Lu Tiandi targets them, and they aren't in the Upper Zone, I'm afraid they won't be able to hide from Lu Tiandi for long."
If it were in the past, when God's Domain wasn't that important, she wouldn't have to worry about the various major corporations secretly taking action. However, the situation was different now. Due to the Green God Company's extreme importance to God's Domain, the various major corporations were also paying more attention to it.
Chuckling, Shifeng said, "That's simple. Just have them head to Ling Yi's headquarters. I'll make the necessary arrangements."
He welcomed the addition of experts. After all, there were plenty of experts in Eternal Glory. If these experts grew and became strong allies of Ling Yi in the future, it would only be beneficial to Ling Yi.
Moreover, Lei Bao had already reached the Half-step Henglian grandmaster standard. Fire Dance, who enjoyed fighting, wasn't much weaker than Lei Bao. In addition, the headquarters had the highest security measures. Even a Henglian grandmaster wouldn't have an easy time causing trouble.
Overjoyed, Ji Luorong said excitedly, "Thank you, Guild Leader Shifeng. I guarantee that they'll listen to all of Ling Yi's arrangements while they're in Ling Yi's headquarters. They won't act recklessly."
It was good news that Ji Luorong's adventurer team's members could move to Ling Yi's headquarters. After all, Ling Yi was very strong right now. Moreover, the various major corporations had been helpless against Ling Yi all this time. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Ji Luorong's members would be safe in Ling Yi's headquarters.
Afterward, after Shifeng and Ji Luorong finished chatting, Ji Luorong contacted her companions and had them head to Ling Yi's headquarters overnight.
