“So? Brothers, is anyone interested? The compensation is open to discussion.” Martial Yin Yang did not notice the slight trembling among the people before him as he continued probing.
In the eyes of Martial Yin Yang, this group of players already represented the top tier strength of Twilight City. It was simply a wave of their hand if they wanted to deal with Quan Zhen Sect. He was already planning to reward them with just a small reward for their efforts….
“No interest, no interest…” the players refused in unison.
Seeing the disinterested faces, Martial Yin Yang gnash his teeth and grunted, “I am going to offer 10,000 gold!”
10,000 gold to go after a sect that fewer than twenty players. It came down to about 500 gold for each player. This was almost comparable to the price of taking down any top players in the game. For Martial Yin Yang to offer so much money at this point displayed his resolve.
“Not interested…” Everyone was still clinging on to their original decisions.
This time Martial Yin Yang’s was already thoroughly tested. He replied begrudgingly, “I can raise the price but everyone cannot go overboard. If you state a price that I find acceptable, then we can close this deal.”
Upon seeing that Martial Yin Yang was not going to let the matter rest, 2012 interjected, “Boss, it is not that we do not want to help you, but not all things in the world can be solved by money alone.”
The players in Twilight City were most aware of the kind of people the players from Quan Zhen Sect were. Would 10,000 gold really be enough to compensate them for their troubles? Martial Yin Yang felt that the bunch was just trying to stall to get higher compensation.
Before 2012 could even finish his piece, Martial Yin Yang hurriedly interrupted, “Oh? Do you think I am not generous enough? How about I add another ten thousand?”
Martial Yin Yang definitely had substantial financial resources. He was able to double the rewards without a bat of his eyelids.
“Oh, just take that I did not say anything!” 2012 saw that Martial Yin Yang was way too stubborn and he immediately quit the chat room.
A few others followed suit and left the chat room in a hurry.
There was no other way around this, Quan Zhen Sect was too troublesome an opponent. If they came to know that this bunch were planning to take them down, Quan Zhen Sect would definitely turn around and find trouble with them instead.
Blabber Mouth left the chat…
Spring Flower left the chat…
Timeless left the chat…
Not long after, only Sanguine Warflag and Captain Don’t Open Fire were left in the chat.
“This…” Martial Yin Yang was speechless and was about to say something to the two when they also gave their farewell greeting and left the chat.
Martial Yin Yang was completely dumbfounded at their actions and murmured to Sanguine Warflag, “What is the meaning of their actions?”
Sanguine Warflag wiped the cold sweat down his neck and replied, “What other meaning could there be? They have no intention to take your offer…”
“Why? Even after I raised my offer to 20,000?” Martial Yin Yang was still confused at the current state of events.
Sanguine Warflag did not answer directly to his question, “How many equipments did Fearless steal? Is the value enough for you to chase them till the ends of the Earth?”
Martial Yin Yang replied, “They stole 10 sets of our Obsidian Equipment.”
“Holy sh*t…”
Sanguine Warflag was flabbergasted at the gall of Quan Zhen Sect. Only they could accomplish the feat of stealing a full ten sets of someone else’s best equipment.
“It is worth it… It is absolutely worth it….” Sanguine Warflag sucked in a breath of cold air in trepidation.
This was a full 10 sets of Obsidian Equipment. If Sanguine Warflag still thought that it was not worth it to chase Quan Zhen Sect down, then he must be a fool.
“Warflag Brother, although it is not my intention, I have to be honest with you. If you guys don’t help me, don’t blame me when I go to Twilight City and make trouble,” Martial Yin Yang said regretfully.
As a leader of a big guild, he knew the importance of seeking the permission of the dominant guild in another city before taking any drastic action.
“Do you think there is any other way around this?” Sanguine Warflag inquired.
“Oh?” Martial Yin Yang was pleasantly surprised, “What do you have in mind?”
Sanguine Warflag continued, “How much did those equipment cost?”
“About 30 million!” Martial Yin Yang felt a tinge of heartache. It was almost 10,000 gold for one piece of equipment.
Even though he had ample financial support behind him, Martial Yin Yang still felt the bitterness in this loss.
Although Martial Yin Yang was the guild leader, he was still accountable to others. He needed to salvage the situation that his brother had caused.
“Since there is a price to it, things are much easier now.” Sanguine Warflag said, “I am acquainted with that bunch from Quan Zhen Sect. They do not have high and lofty ambitions. If there is a price to it, there may be a way around this…”
“Price? What do you mean?” Martial Yin Yang did not understand what Sanguine Warflag suggested.
Sanguine Warflag explained, “If this can be solved by money, this matter will be easily resolved.”
This time, Martial Yin Yang realised Sanguine Warflag’s intentions. He wanted Martial Yin Yang to use money to buy the equipment back.
“Is the equipment mine?” Martial Yin Yang said.
Sanguine Warflag shot back, “Yes.”
“Quan Zhen Sect took it away…”
“True!”
“But I have to use money to buy all of it back?”
“En.”
Sanguine Warflag nodded vigorously.
“What the f*ck!” Martial Yin Yang screeched in hysteria.
If one were to use their own money to reclaim their possessions from thieves, there would be no notion of justice in the world anymore. This was even more the case when Divine Martial Guild was such an influential guild. How could they simply pander in front of a small guild?
“I only suggested…” Sanguine Warflag quickly justified himself.
“Hmph!” Martial Yin Yang replied coldly, “Since you seem to look down on my Divine Martial Guild, there is no need for us to continue this conversation. When my Divine Martial Guild players arrive, I hope the Sanguine Alliance give us some face.”
“No, I am not looking down on you guys… I am just throwing some other ideas out, don’t you know…” Sanguine Warflag was scrambling to salvage the situation.
Not waiting for Sanguine Warflag to finish speaking, Martial Yin Yang promptly kicked him out of the chatroom…
“F*ck! That guy is simply courting his own death by not listening to my advice!” Sanguine Warflag thought in his heart. He immediately sent Fearless a message, “You guys better be careful for these few days. There are people trying to give you trouble.”
Sanguine Warflag was a kind and honest ally. From the moment Martial Yin Yang initiated contact with him, all his efforts were actually directed to helping Quan Zhen Sect resolve this matter in an amicable way.
Although at this time Sanguine Warflag did not blatantly expose Martial Yin Yang’s intentions, he still reminded Fearless in view of their past friendships.
