149: Purge the Heavenly Explosion Gang and negotiate with the Overlord Divine Light!

Ink Feather grabbed Duan Heng with one hand and pulled him up.

Duan Heng couldn't stop trembling; if this were reality, he probably would have wet himself in fear.

"You've got quite the nerve, daring to block our White Jade Capital's Guild Leader!"

Although Duan Heng didn't recognize the person in front of him, he knew of Ink Feather—a powerhouse high up on the leaderboard.

With his meager standing, he probably wasn't even worthy of tying the other's shoes.

"I... I didn't know!"

Ink Feather didn't bother wasting words with him and directly ordered the members of White Jade Capital to take action.

That day, a second-rate guild called the Heaven-Blasting Gang was nearly wiped out.

For no other reason than they had provoked a guild called White Jade Capital.

Instantly, White Jade Capital's Fame spread throughout the game once more.

Although White Jade Capital wasn't a top-tier guild, its prestige had already reached extreme heights.

If you asked exactly how high, it was about three or four stories high.

Many Solo Players and members of other guilds wanted to join White Jade Capital.

One person in trouble, the whole guild mobilizes!

This Aura was even stronger than that of those top-tier guilds.

Lin Yue didn't pay attention to any of this; he and Cai Wenji were grinding monsters near the Wailing Grotto.

wailing wraiths casket: Collect one thousand units of Resentment to unlock a special reward.

Collection Progress: 485/1,000.

Not every Wild Monster dropped Resentment, so progress was a bit slow.

While Lin Yue was focused on grinding monsters, he noticed someone approaching.

This person was none other than Overlord Divine Light of the Overlord Guild.

The Heaven-Blasting Gang incident naturally caught their attention, and they soon received news of the White Emperor's appearance.

"You really are here, White Emperor!"

Upon learning of the White Emperor's appearance, Overlord Divine Light rushed here immediately.

He hadn't held much hope, but he didn't expect the White Emperor to actually be here grinding monsters.

"What, was the previous lesson not enough?"

Lin Yue wouldn't give the Overlord Guild any face.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm here this time to reach a settlement!"

"Look, there aren't actually any major conflicts between us; besides, Overlord Divine Bow has already left the Overlord Guild!"

"Here is Overlord Divine Bow's real-life information. As for his affairs, the Overlord Guild will no longer interfere."

"If you're willing, we can also provide corresponding compensation."

"Twenty million, what do you think!"

Seeing the information sent by Overlord Divine Light, Lin Yue fell into a brief contemplation.

In his past life, Overlord Divine Bow hadn't participated in the actions against his Family, and there were no issues with his character.

Moreover, he was very strong; though not a match for himself, he was still a decent combat power.

Since Overlord Divine Bow had already left the Overlord Guild, it would be better to just bring him under his own command.

As for the Overlord Guild, the grudge between them wasn't as simple as Overlord Divine Bow stealing a boss.

Everything that happened before his Rebirth was still vivid in his mind; this wasn't something that could be resolved through mere peace talks.

"It's not impossible, but twenty million is far too little!"

Lin Yue didn't refuse outright but gave them a glimmer of hope.

"As long as both sides can resolve the conflict, the compensation can naturally be discussed!"

Seeing hope for a settlement, Overlord Divine Light couldn't help but feel a bit smug.

If this matter was handled well, not only would the Overlord Guild get a breathing room, but he would also be highly valued.

"One price: two billion. No two billion, no talk!"

In the past, the Ba Tian Group might have been able to squeeze out two billion if they gritted their teeth.

But now was not then. Although they could still produce two billion, it would undoubtedly cost the Ba Tian Group its life.

What difference would that be from the Ba Tian Group disbanding!

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Overlord Divine Light hadn't expected the White Emperor to make such an exorbitant demand.

This was two billion, yet he spoke as if it were ten or twenty bucks.

Clearly, the White Emperor had no intention of settling with them.

"Two billion is too much. Five hundred million, how about five hundred million!"

Overlord Divine Light still wanted to try; the Overlord Guild needed a chance to breathe.

"Two billion, not a penny less!"

Lin Yue's attitude was firm; he never had any intention of settling.

"One billion, no more!"

One billion was the Ba Tian Group's final bottom line; any more than that, and the Ba Tian Group wouldn't be able to sustain itself.

"I don't want to repeat myself!"

Lin Yue's gaze turned colder; his patience was running thin.

"In that case, I will go back and report the truth!"

Although the Overlord Guild had plummeted recently, it hadn't reached the point of being at someone's beck and call.

"Leave? You think you can still leave?"

Lin Yue said mockingly.

Whether it was him or Cai Wenji, keeping Overlord Divine Light here would be an easy task.

"White Emperor, you are indeed strong."

"But if I want to leave, I'm afraid you can't stop me!"

Overlord Divine Light had his own confidence; the White Emperor was strong, but if he wanted to go, he likely couldn't be held back.

"No, no, no, you've misunderstood. I just want to send you home!"

"It would be so tiring for you to walk!"

Saying that, Lin Hao raised his hand and prepared to attack.

"White Emperor, do you truly intend to do this!"

Overlord Divine Light sensed a hint of danger. Seeing the White Emperor's skill, he had a premonition that he wouldn't be able to withstand this attack.

As for escaping, that was likely even more impossible.

"Our Overlord Guild isn't a pushover either. White Jade Capital only has six thousand people, and the only strong one is you!"

"As long as you're not around, the rest of White Jade Capital is simply not worth mentioning to us!"

Overlord Divine Light knew he was no match for the White Emperor, but he was a member of the Overlord Guild, with the entire guild behind him.

"Only me? You're really daydreaming!"

"Don't blame me for not giving you a chance. In three days, I will initiate a Guild War to give you a chance to defeat me."

"My White Jade Capital's five thousand people against your Overlord Guild's twenty thousand. I won't make a move!"

"If you win, I'll let bygones be bygones!"

"But if you lose, not only must you compensate me two billion, but your guild leader must also personally come and apologize to me!"

A Guild War is a type of group battle between guilds.

Both sides appear simultaneously in a new space that only members of the two guilds can enter.

Since the game's launch, there hasn't been a single true Guild War.

In a Guild War, not only do Ranks and equipment drop like in normal combat, but killing people does not increase one's red name value.

The losing side also has to pay a large amount of compensation.

Both sides in the war will have hostile markers, and the losers will suffer a three-day negative debuff.

Not only will damage dealt decrease and damage taken increase, but even drop rates will drop.

This isn't just a small sum; once a Guild War is lost, it's a massive loss for a guild.

Thus, once a Guild War begins, it's basically a fight to the death.

"Fine, don't you regret it!"
