“Oh, so that is the situation…” Listening to Lucifer’s explanation, Martial Yin Yang quickly grasped the seriousness of the matter.
Martial Yin Yang was not surprised that his guild had chased down people for their equipment because they had done similar things before.
It was just that in this particular case, the other party was not intimidated by Divine Martial Guild’s prestige and power. They were even willing to provoke such an influential guild.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Martial Yin Yang let out a sigh, “This is not a big matter. Isn’t it just a few pieces of equipment? We have tons of them in our guild’s storage. Don’t bother to fight with that kind of people over this. Listen to me, let’s leave this matter at that. It is not in our interest to provoke that person.”
Martial Yin Yang had pulled himself from the lower echelons of society to his standing today. He was clear that there were some people that they could not offer to provoke.
If it was a big guild that dared to inflame him, Martial Yin Yang would unhesitatingly bring people to retaliate. No matter if it was a win or loss, there was always going to an opponent on the other side. However, for Quan Zhen Sect, they were an opponent that was always in the shadows.
On the basis of strength, Quan Zhen Sect was nowhere near comparable to the big guilds. That being said, once they were provoked, they would definitely stop at nothing to take vengeance.
After all, one had to be afraid of the thief hiding in the night and not the thief out in the open. To live in constant fear for just a few pieces of equipment was not worth it.
“This…” Lucifer saw that Martial Yin Yang was sincere in persuading him to give up his pursuit and could not help but cried anxiously, “But… What they stole was not common equipment…”
“Oh? Did they steal high-level equipment? Could it be a G.o.d-grade weapon?” Martial Yin Yang replied in a half-joking manner.
“Mmm, it is Obsidian Equipment.” Lucifer nodded.
“Obsidian Equipment…” Martial Yin Yang finally realised the reason for Lucifer’s prior anxious behaviour.
Compared to the usual online games, <> had a much lower equipment drop rate. Therefore, Obsidian equipment was still extremely valuable equipment.
Chasing the Quan Zhen Sect down to recover their Obsidian equipment was justified.
“One or two equipment?” Martial Yin Yang inquired.
Even though Obsidian equipment was valuable, one piece was not worth to incite conflict with that annoying bunch from Quan Zhen Sect. Of course, if it was two pieces, there was room to reconsider whether to chase them or not.
“10 sets…” Lucifer replied timidly and he wanted to bury his head in the sand at this point.
“10.. 10 sets?” Martial Yin Yang was flabbergasted, “10 sets of Obsidian equipment? Where did you get that from? You need to know… Huh? Don’t tell me the 10 sets are…?”
Martial Yin Yang’s face instantly darkened and frowns was etched over his face. F*ck, the number of Obsidian equipment sets was not high at all. It was obvious that the 10 sets of equipment belonged to Divine Martial Guild.
“Hmm…” Lucifer was on tenterhooks.
“F*ck!” Upon hearing that his worst fears were realised, Martial Yin Yang flew in a rage. He did not bother that Lucifer was his blood brother and sent a kick on Lucifer’s trembling body.
Martial Yin Yang’s cla.s.s was a Qigong Master. With one vicious kick, he managed to send a holy knight flying. One could easily imagine the anger that he was feeling.
Following that, Martial Yin Yang brought his palms together. A Fire Dragon swiftly appeared above him and was hovering over his palms.
Qigong Master Level 45 Ultimate skill [Broken Fire Dragon Flame]. This was a devastating area of effect skill and its destructive might was no weaker than a Magician’s [Lightning Flash]. It was the killer move for a Qigong Master.
“Boss… Boss, please hold your anger…”
Sicko Cat quickly tried to pacify Martial Yin Yang upon seeing his terrible wrath. Martial Yin Yang would have even killed Lucifer if not for the bunch with Sicko Cat blocking Martial Yin Yang’s path.
“How do want me to cool down!” Martial Yin Yang was enraged. He dispersed the Fire Dragon and pointed at Lucifer with hateful eyes, “If I don’t kill him today, this b*stard will anger me to death one day!”
Marital Yin Yang had spent a large amount of cash to acquire the ten sets of equipment. It was the main thing that Martial Yin Yang’s team needed to compete in the professional champions.h.i.+ps.
For a big guild like Divine Martial Guild with strong financial support, spending money was not an issue. The main problem was that even money could not buy some equipment due to their immense rarity.
Obsidian equipment was already a highly sought after item. Coupled with the impending start of the professional champions.h.i.+ps, there was bound to be an even higher demand for it. These 10 sets of equipment had been laboriously acquired over a long period of time. With it being stolen by someone so easily, how could Martial Yin Yang not be mad?
Lucifer, after all, was Martial Yin Yang’s blood brother. If it was anyone else, Martial Yin Yang would not even hesitate to kill the perpetrator in real life. Killing Lucifer once in-game was just to temporarily vent his anger.
“Boss, listen to me, now that the equipment is gone, killing your second brother does not salvage anything. Our target now should be the Quan Zhen Sect,” Sicko Cat interjected.
“You are absolutely right!” Martial Yin Yang nodded in agreement and replied, “However, I am feeling so aggrieved in my heart!”
Sicko Cat continued, “You also know the temper of your brother. If you push him too far, he might do something reckless. We are already the laughingstock of the world now. If more people get wind of this, how much more face would we lose?”
It was not a secret among the higher management of Divine Martial Guild that Lucifer had some warped sense of thinking. Listening to Sicko Cat’s advice gave some clarity to Martial Yin Yang.
After all, the image of the guild was still the most important. Once Lucifer was pushed into a corner, who could antic.i.p.ate what he might do. He knew many of Martial Yin Yang’s secrets. If he were to expose them…
Martial Yin Yang quickly came to a decision, “Sigh, alright! I shall just spare him this one time!”
“What should we do now?” Lucifer saw that Martial Yin Yang wanted to take his life and apprehensively asked.
“Nonsense, what else can we do? Of course, it is to get the equipment back!” Martial Yin Yang glared at Lucifer.
“Get back? But they have already returned to Twilight City…” Lucifer muttered.
Lucifer was not totally stupid and he knew the consequences of entering another city to continue the pursuit.
“Hmph!” Martial Yin Yang replied coldly, “What about that? Aren’t they a small group! I will go and greet some of the big guilds in Twilight City!”
Following that declaration, Martial Yin Yang swiped his buddy list and added a few of them into a temporary chat group.
