Fear flickered within Q-Sword’s eyes as he spoke, “Xiao Yao, what do you mean by that? I…I went to watch a horse race with my third uncle in the afternoon, and didn’t expect to come home to such a situation like this. What exactly happened? I had thought Cang Cheng was pretty decent, and could manage a big guild. So when I gave him the First Division, I didn’t think there would be so many problems…”
Behind Q-Sword, his sister Sword Tears carried her sword and said, “Brother, don’t bother with idle chat from Xiao Yao Zi Zai. Right now our men in the First Division are stuck in Magic Tracking Forest and their bodies are being guarded. All we need to ask Xiao Yao Zi Zai is if he’ll let our people go or not…”
Q-Sword nodded, “Xiao Yao, you heard her; will you let our people go? Otherwise I’ll be forced to make the announcement to my guild…”
I laughed, “This isn’t the right question to ask. The real question is: are you still determined to occupy Magic Tracking Forest? Magic Tracking Forest neighbors [Zhan Long], not to mention that it’s originally under [Crimson Contract]’s control. Right now, if [Hero’s Mound] wants to occupy Magic Tracking Forest, then this is clearly declaring war…”
“Ah?” Q-Sword was startled, “I…I didn’t say to take over Magic Tracking Forest. I only told Cang Cheng to enter Ba Huang City and find a nice training ground…”
“So it really was Wang Ze Cheng’s plan!” I gritted through my teeth.
At that moment, Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue both came walking back. Q-Sword saw them both from the corners of his eyes and helplessly asked, “Wan Er, Dong Cheng, can you two please tell me what type of situation I have on my hands? Why is it that Wind Walker is telling me that you two had fought against our own members?”
Wan Er frowned, “Q-Sword, if you really trust us, you don’t even need to ask. If you don’t trust us, then the both of us will leave [Hero’s Mound] immediately. It’s that simple.”
Q-Sword coughed, “If you have something to say, then say it…”
Han Bei Song lowered his sword, “Guild Master Q-Sword, first answer me this; why did you bring so many people to Ba Huang City?”
Q-Sword faintly smiled, “It’s really nothing, just me preparing myself. If people were really trying to bully my members, then I will have to respond with force. But looking at this situation, it seems like it was because I hadn’t had a proper handle on things.”
“Guild Master!”
Behind Q-Sword, a Lv 64 Wind Elf Archer slowly floated down to the ground with his longbow in hand, “We’ve found a large group of players heading our way from the southeast; they all appear to be Yan Zhao Warrior’s men…” He whispered.
“Eh?” Q-Sword wrinkled his eyebrows, “Why did that old man come here?”
Over the horizon, a group of densely packed players came marching by with Yan Zhao Warrior at the front.
……
Sword Tears stated coldly, “There are at least 10,000 players, what is [Prague] planning?”
Q-Sword clenched his teeth, “I’ll go find out!”
After saying that, the Guild Master of [Hero’s Mound] moved on over to within 40 meters of Yan Zhao Warrior and his group. With a smile, he said, “Guild Master Yan Zhao, it’s been a long time; have you been well? Why have you brought out so many people to Wild Butterfly Plains? A training exercise?”
Yan Zhao Warrior pumped his fist and laughed, “Not at all; I heard that [Hero’s Mound] was about to fight a war, so I brought my players to engage in it. To uphold the honor of Ba Huang City…”
Yue Qing Qian giggled beside me, “Why do I feel like uncle has suddenly become cuter recently?”
Han Bei Song laughed as well, “Cunning old man, he clearly wants to uphold [Prague]’s own honor in Ba Huang City. With [Hero’s Mound] trying to enter Ba Huang City, of course [Prague] would be affected by it…”
……
Cleanly resolving the initial matter, Q-Sword faced me once more, “Xiao Yao, if you let me revive the First Division, we will immediately pull out and return to Fan Shu City, how about it?”
I nodded, “Deal!”
Q-Sword took out a city scroll, and in the next moment, the densely packed Wild Butterfly Plains was enveloped in a bright glow, as the 10,000+ players all were transported back to Fan Shu City.
Yan Zhao Warrior laughed and pointed to the south, “Tornado, bring our men over to train…”
Tornado nodded, “Okay!’
