"You guys are a step too late."
Righteous and Indomitable said despondently, "The territory has already been taken by soone else."
"What the hell?"
"We just got here, and the territory is already gone? Are you trying to fool a three-year-old?"
"Righteous and Indomitable, let make this clear, if you don’t hand over the territory today, it won’t be over between us!"
The players glared aggressively at Righteous and Indomitable, giving him no room to maneuver.
The Sunset Never Falls Guild is now only a shadow of its forr self, and he had his Human Race identity stripped away. Under such circumstances, it’s normal to be treated this way. Righteous and Indomitable sighed, folded his hands behind his back, and posed like a martyr, saying calmly, "At this point, what’s the point in lying to you? Even if I kept the territory, what good would it do, it would just be a laughingstock. If you don’t believe , there’s nothing I can do, I’m standing right here, do as you please."
"Then... tell , who took the territory?"
"Yeah, Righteous and Indomitable, every debt has its debtor. If you didn’t do it, then tell us who did, so we can settle the score!"
Seeing that Righteous and Indomitable didn’t seem to be lying, these people’s anger subsided a bit, wanting him to na the opportunistic scoundrel.
"His na is..."
Righteous and Indomitable was about to say the na when he realized that he couldn’t even rember the person’s appearance or na, which was too pathetic.
If he said this, no one would believe it.
Then.
He raised his head and said solemnly, "His na is Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, go settle the score with him."
"..."
At these words, the whole place fell silent.
"Damn it, how could it be him?"
"He already has a territory, why is he still competing with us for resources? It pisses off!!!"
"Does he really think he’s invincible? How can soone have such a big ego?"
"Brothers, gather the troops, and storm the Dark Swamp!"
"Yeah, the monk can run but the temple can’t, let’s teach him the price of greed!"
"Count the Sunset Never Falls Guild in!"
"The Galaxy Guards will join too!"
"Bro, your guards are only three to five people, don’t make us laugh."
"..."
Under Righteous and Indomitable’s deliberate guidance, the players imdiately turned their attention to storming the Dark Swamp.
Of course, Righteous and Indomitable didn’t escape being killed in the end and paid the price for his actions.
...
At this ti, Su Ran was on his way to the Sky Demon Domain with the demon Badongng, unaware of what was happening in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts, taking the bla for no reason. If he knew, he would have been furious and gone after Righteous and Indomitable to settle the score.
This territory thing had nothing to do with him, why was his na ntioned? Even if they had a grudge, this was too underhanded!
"Beep beep beep!"
While they were on the road, his friend notifications kept ringing. Su Ran wasn’t planning to pay attention, but the frequency was too high, forcing him to take it seriously.
"Senior, please wait a mont, I need to handle so personal matters."
Su Ran, feeling quite surprised, had no choice but to stop, open the friend interface, and once he saw it, he was stunned. Goodness, all his online friends had sent ssages!
"Brother Spilt Water, what big move are you making again? Why is the whole world cursing you?"
"Brother Spilt Water, have you lost your mind? You already have a territory, why would you go take over Righteous and Indomitable’s? Now you’ve made everyone angry!!!"
"What?"
Upon reading Youtong’s ssage, Su Ran felt sothing was off, but when he got to Brother Nan Qiang’s ssage, he was completely dumbfounded.
What is any of this?
When did he go and take over Righteous and Indomitable’s territory?
Isn’t this just stirring up trouble for no reason?
"Brother Nan Qiang, are you mistaken? I’m currently on my way to the Sky Demon Domain, where would I find the ti to take over Righteous and Indomitable’s territory?"
Feeling a need to clear this up, Su Ran was exasperated. As for the other ssages, he could easily guess they were about this territory issue too, so there was no need to read them. Having Brother Nan Qiang clear things up would be more helpful than anything!
"It wasn’t you?"
Brother Nan Qiang quickly replied, asking seriously, "Then why did Righteous and Indomitable personally na you?"
"I..."
In that instant, Su Ran felt an urge to swear. The way Righteous and Indomitable frad him was too despicable, and now he got caught in the crossfire. He wanted to say a lot, but eventually, he could only squeeze out three words—
"You’re ruthless!!!"
"Brother Nan Qiang, I really didn’t take over his territory, I can’t even manage my own, where would I find the ti to get another one?"
Su Ran felt both aggrieved and frustrated, speaking listlessly, "You know that Righteous and Indomitable and I have a grudge, he’s clearly framing , I’m really impressed!"
"I know you two have a grudge, but just because I know doesn’t do much good. Thanks to the instigation by others with ulterior motives, you’ve beco an enemy of the whole region, and they’re mustering forces to attack your territory, trying to force you to comply. You’d better co back soon, the territorial battle can’t miss its owner."
"This..."
Su Ran glanced at the demon Badongng in embarrassnt. At such a critical mont, he really should return to his territory to oversee things, but then there’s another issue: he had managed to get the demon Badongng into his party and was counting on it to help complete the Dream Mirror quest, so how could he let it go easily?
However, bringing it to the territory would surely lead to a fight with the demon king Zise, and before the player army could even arrive, his territory would be in chaos...
There’s no denying it, Righteous and Indomitable had posed him a fatal dilemma, putting him in an impossible situation, it was just wicked!
Righteous and Indomitable, you rat!
"Brother Nan Qiang, I have sothing going on here, I can’t leave right now, could you send so troops to help keep an eye on things? Just hold the line for deterrence, with my territory’s defenses, they won’t be able to take it right away!"
Left with no choice, Su Ran had to entrust Brother Nan Qiang to help defend the city. In his view, although this group of players had numbers, they were just rabble. Additionally, his territory was on top of a mountain, re numbers wouldn’t suffice.
"You kid have so nerve, forsaking the territory for a mission!"
Brother Nan Qiang was quite displeased with Su Ran’s decision. To him, nothing was more important than the territory, and if it was lost, there would be regrets!
"Brother Nan Qiang, consider this a favor I owe you, please take on the task of defending the city."
Su Ran continued towards the Sky Demon Domain with the demon Badongng, sending a ssage to Brother Nan Qiang, "This mission is crucial, I can’t give it up lightly. Besides, who knows when the siege might start, I might finish my task before they’ve even gathered their forces!"
"Never underestimate people, to my knowledge, they’ve rallied nearly three hundred thousand, with many guilds joining in. If you don’t take it seriously, you’ll soon lose the territory."
Brother Nan Qiang had already spoken bluntly. As Su Ran had made his decision, there was no point in saying more. Inside, he said quietly, "Brother Spilt Water, handle it yourself."
"Don’t worry, I’ll hurry back. There’s no way I’m letting soone else take my territory!"
Su Ran heard the change in tone from Brother Nan Qiang, promptly assuring him, "With you there, what do I have to fear?"
"How did I end up with a brother like you? Never mind, I’ll just do my best, but I can’t guarantee how long I can hold it."
...
"Human, what’s going on?"
Noticing Su Ran’s serious expression, the demon Badongng asked curiously, "Do you need my help?"
"It’s nothing major; no need to trouble you, senior. Let’s focus on the mission."
Su Ran knew Badongng wanted to repay its debt, but he wouldn’t dare bring up the territory issue to it. If it found out there’s another demon king, Zise, it would only make things worse!
