104: External probing and disturbances

Xu Shian, who was leading a large group towards the foot of the North Mountain while clearing mobs along the way, suddenly heard a private message sound.

Xu Shian glanced at the private message and frowned!

【War God Xingtian】 ...

Perhaps because the two parties were not particularly familiar with each other, the message sent was text-based.

"Hello, Shi Chuan, would it be convenient to add our leader as a friend? They have something they want to discuss with you privately!"

Xu Shian felt a headache coming on after reading this.

Forget about the leader... and 'they'?

After all, they were one of the largest factions in the Xia Kingdom after the future collapse of the East Dragon Empire. Even if he didn't intend to agree to their request, basic politeness was still necessary!

"Give me their ID, I'll add them!"

"【Eastern War Fu Xiongxin】!"

As expected of a soldier, speaking so straightforwardly...

Xu Shian handed over command of the team to Wu Lun, who had just been summoned, while he himself rode his scooter in the very center of the formation.

Would a common militiaman like Wu Lun know how to command?

What was there to know? Just F2 to select all, then A-move...

After all, with the two big shots 【Pigsy】 and 【Frost Moon】 guarding both sides, where would Wu Lun need any command ability?

Not to mention Wu Lun, even Xu Shian didn't have it!

Wu Lun's main purpose was to pick up loot from wild monsters!

...

As soon as Xu Shian's friend request was sent, the other side accepted it immediately; they were clearly waiting specifically for Xu Shian!

Immediately after, the other party initiated a voice chat.

"Hello, Mr. Shi Chuan, I am 【Eastern War Fu Xiongxin】!"

"Hello, Mr. Fu!"

He didn't know the other party's position, so calling him Mr. was definitely correct...

"Everyone is surely busy leveling up these days, so I'll get straight to the point! The Bauhinia Pavilion wants to buy the ownership of the 【Time】 Guild, what do you think?"

"Not for sale!"

...

A simple sentence left both sides in silence!

After all, this was the official representative of the Great Xia; playing games and teasing them was pointless...

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

"Mr. Fu, when I added people to the guild the other day, I did it from top to bottom based on the level rankings. I believe the military should already have many people in 【Time】! Do you think it's possible for me to sell this guild?"

Fu Xiongxin was not surprised at all.

When he was assigned this task, he knew that this kind of impulsive decision didn't have any possibility of being completed!

With a guild like this in their hands, how could anyone possibly let it go?

They were currently raking in huge wealth every day through the guild Auction House; were you guys pretending to be blind...

Although he was complaining incessantly in his heart, a soldier's duty was to obey orders. No matter what, he couldn't just give up on the task assigned by his superiors without trying!

The two sides chatted for about ten minutes. Fu Xiongxin fully expressed the official's sincere attitude and their confidence in being wealthy to Xu Shian...

Then both sides expressed regret that they could not reach an agreement, and looked forward to mutual support between the two sides in the subsequent survival in the other world, walking to the other shore!

Hanging up the private chat, Xu Shian deleted the person's friend status, and then invited the other party to join the guild...

At least he was a big shot before, he must be a rich person!

Shouldn't he add him in to spend some money?

The guild currently had 9,774 people, leaving more than two hundred spots for Xu Shian to handle such emergencies!

He looked at the guild chat channel; it was very quiet.

Everyone was in the know; the top priority at this stage was definitely leveling up. Before the version update, they had to obtain as much extra lifespan as possible!

After all, just looking at the 【A-Rank Talent Awakening Stone】, one knew that there must be many more good things in the game, and they couldn't just be limited to the 【Time】 Guild!

But most of these good things would likely require extra lifespan to purchase!

Xu Shian scrolled up the chat history; there were many requests to add him as a friend for private chats...

He kicked all these people out one by one!

Right now, everyone's Novice Village was different, and Xu Shian had no way to integrate the guild members.

Everything had to wait until they went to the main city.

But these undercover personnel who were openly exposed, why keep them for the New Year?

After thinking about it, Xu Shian simply kicked 【Jingan Sima Heng】 out as well!

...

【Ding, you have been kicked out of the guild by the guild leader 'Shi Chuan'!】

【Jingan Sima Heng】, who was currently clearing an elite Dungeon, was stunned, and then a burst of anger rushed to his head.

Back in Jingan, he was used to acting tyrannically; when had he ever suffered such grievances?

"Ah..."

Sima Heng slashed wildly with his blade, and the surrounding teammates hurriedly dodged!

Although he failed to hit anyone, he disrupted the rhythm of his teammates...

Total wipe!

The old man 【What is this situation?】 waiting outside the Dungeon, although he hadn't joined the team to enter the Dungeon, had people reporting every move inside to him in real-Time!

The old man felt exhausted!

When they were on Blue Star, with the deep-rooted Sima Family providing a safety net, it didn't matter if you messed around!

Having come to this new world, to still be so arrogant and willful... so reckless...

Not to mention far away, just looking at the ten thousand people in this Novice Village, how many were still genuinely willing to serve the Sima Family?

Most people just didn't know what others were thinking, and felt they were in a den of thieves and didn't dare to test the waters...

Sometimes when he thought about it, now that the world had changed, shouldn't he also live for himself?

The old man had been specifically paying attention to the posts on the forum about the Jingan Sima Family!

There were many people in Jingan who had suffered deeply at the hands of the Sima Family and were connecting with each other to attack the Sima Family after entering the main city...

Among them, the families of the missing girls were particularly agitated!

Those thirty-three women were exposing what they had seen and heard at the Sima Family on the forum every day. Now, the Sima Family's reputation was already stinking for miles...

Wait a little longer!

Just wait a little longer...

When they go to the main city... I, the old man, won't play with you guys anymore!

...

"It's a pity that this 【extra lifespan】 can neither be traded nor purchased on behalf of others!"

In Novice Village No. 1987, 【Eastern War Fu Xiongxin】 and 【Eastern Wild Wang Kui】 stood on the North Mountain looking out at the Novice Village.

Fu Xiongxin's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard his friend's exclamation.

What did he mean by that?

The world was already very miserable. If this 【extra lifespan】 could be plundered, then what it would bring to the people at the bottom could only be deeper harm!

He didn't believe his old friend didn't understand this principle...

Was this his own thought, or the thought of a group of people?

...

On the way to the new Dungeon, Xu Shian looked at today's ten items.

They all looked good, but they couldn't be used for the Time being!

For example, there was a piece of level 60 gold equipment on it...

Price: 6,000 gold coins!

This... although Xu Shian could afford it, he would have to wait until level 60 to wear it?

That was equivalent to throwing his six hundred gold coins into the water!

As for that 【A-Rank Talent Awakening Stone】 worth 300 years of extra lifespan.

After a discount, it was 30 years of extra lifespan, which wasn't much for Xu Shian!

But this A-Rank level was really a bit of a pitfall...

If it were a bit stronger, like reaching S-Rank or SS-Rank, Xu Shian would grit his teeth and buy it.

Anyway, most of the things he bought were purchased after discounts, so he didn't worry much about not having enough 【extra lifespan】.

Xu Shian had also considered whether to buy it and change Wu Lun's talent!

After all, Wu Lun was also part of his own strength.

But thinking carefully, each race could only have one 【Subordinate】 card.

The Human race was very important!

After all, with so many players, there would eventually be a few experts from hostile factions!

Even taking a step back, even if Xu Shian looked down on those hostile factions from the Xia Kingdom, there were still other countries...

For example, 【Bankai】, 【Yasukuni Shrine】, and 【Igawa Young Master】 on the leaderboard...

Their talents looked pretty good at a glance...

The more he invested in Wu Lun now, the higher the sunk cost would be in the future!
