Soon, news about the dragon building spread far and wide. It became a hot topic for travelers and merchants. Some sects and cities outside Hard Rock City also began to notice this rich wine store. Everyone speculated who was the expert behind this newly created group.
Because of the surprise caused by the sudden emergence of the dragon building, many decided to visit Hard Rock City just to take a look at the rumored wine store.
It was the second day of the dragon building's opening, the store was filled to the brim with people and some were even standing outside the golden fences, looking at the garden with greed. However, no one dared to steal anything since there were a few armored guards observing them coldly. They knew that these armored guards were Supreme God Realm experts. Only a fool would dare to create a ruckus here... Unless one had the strength of a Heavenly God Realm expert, they could only stare enviously at this rich garden...
Suddenly, the crowd beyond the golden fences parted and made way for a group of individuals wearing gray robes. All of them bore the same insignia drawn on their robes, an indication that they came from the same sect.
"That is the insignia of the Shadow God Sect! I heard that one of their disciples was slapped by an armored guard inside the dragon building for causing trouble. These guys might be here for revenge!"
"It looks like we are about to witness a great show!"
The onlookers chatted excitedly when they saw this group of people walking towards the dragon building.
Everyone could already feel the solemn atmosphere when the people from the Shadow God Sect came. The armored guards of the dragon building stared at the group with cold faces. There were five armored guards stationed outside the dragon building. With the deterrent force of five Supreme God Realm experts, even the entourage of the Shadow God Sect felt a bit of pressure.
An Elder of the Shadow God Sect stepped forward and shouted with a cold voice. "I am Vincent, and Elder of the Shadow God Sect. We came here to ask for compensation from the dragon building for harming our disciple!"
His loud voice echoed within the entire street, making everyone cover their ears. This Elder Vincent was also a Supreme God Realm expert! Standing behind him were four more Supreme God Realm Elders of the Shadow God Sect.
Seeing this scene, everyone eagerly waited for what was about to happen.
"If you are not here to drink wine, then scram!" An armored guard let out a deafening shout towards the people from the Shadow God Sect. The other armored guards were staring at them with cold and malevolent faces.
Elder Vincent felt a bit surprised. These armored guards were actually stubborn people. He thought that they would feel threatened because of their background, but it seems like they also had someone to rely on. After realizing this, the expression of Elder Vincent became unsightly. If he backs down this time, he would be a laughing stock. If that happens, the Shadow God Sect will become a target of ridicule. He didn't want this to happen!
"We are not asking for too much. We will only demand five hundred thousand God Stones as compensation for hurting our disciple. If you compensate us, the Shadow God Sect will forget this matter." Elder Vincent put on a generous look as he said those words. This was his form of compromise. At first, he was planning to demand a million God Stones from them, but he directly cut it in half to express his good intentions.
However...
The armored guards remained silent. They only stared at him as if they were looking at a fool. Their looks of contempt was like a tight slap to his face! Elder Vincent was incensed by the attitude of these people! He gritted his teeth and slowly released his peak stage Supreme God Realm aura.
When his aura burst out, the onlookers felt a strong wave of suppression. They felt as if their bodies were carrying a huge boulder!
"Sh*t! It looks like we will be implicated by the clash of these two groups! Let's retreat before it's too late!"
"I'm out of here! You guys can spectate on your own!"
A huge percentage of the crowd immediately left the area when they sensed that a battle was about to erupt. They didn't want to be swept by the residual forces of the battle, so they smartly left.
After a little while, only a few brave ones remained to watch the scene.
The people from the Shadow God Sect took out their weapons as they glared at the armored guards.
Meanwhile, the five armored guards remained calm despite the overwhelming pressure produced by the Shadow God Sect's people. To be precise, an invisible energy was blocking the suppressive force of Elder Vincent and the others from entering beyond the golden gates! However, no one saw this...
Suddenly, a sixth armored guard suddenly stepped out of the dragon building. He was the leader appointed by Jiu Shen among the ten Soul Puppets. This guy had the strength of a peak stage Supreme God Realm expert!
"Why are you guys stopping them from entering? Let them go inside the dragon building." The armored guard let out a mysterious smile as he said this. He was commanded by Jiu Shen to allow this group of people to get inside the dragon building. He was wondering why his master was allowing the enemies to go inside their turf, but he still followed Jiu Shen's command.
The armored guards were taken aback. They looked at their leader in confusion, but the latter ignored them.
After hearing his words, the people from the Shadow God Sect were shocked, but they soon smiled coldly. They believed that this was the dragon building's way of settling the dispute.
Elder Vincent put down his weapon and he gestured for the others to do the same. He then stared at the leader of the armored guards and smiled at him. "Many thanks, brother!"
