Currently, there are four major guilds in the Immortal Realm.
First is the Snow Smoke Pavilion, led by Mu Qingxue.
Second is the Peerless Tower, led by Tianxia Wushuang.
Third is the Sword Pavilion, led by Dao Ji Shi Kong.
Fourth is Shenzhou, led by Zhen Bu Yao Jian.
Their rankings also reflect their power levels.
Of course, this guild ranking list was compiled based on information gathered by neutral players.
To vie for the top spot, Peerless Tower constantly targeted Snow Smoke Pavilion.
For Tianxia Wushuang, his family background was hardly inferior to Mu Qingxue’s.
So why should a woman suppress him?
Is the ranking that important? Are there any rewards?
None at all.
But the mindset of the wealthy is beyond what ordinary players can fathom.
They lack nothing—except fame.
In a game, if you don’t act flashy, where’s the fun?
Compared to Snow Smoke Pavilion and Peerless Tower, Sword Pavilion and Shenzhou kept a much lower profile, especially Shenzhou, which only had a few dozen members.
Almost all of them were just casual players.
“What’s going on?” Invincible Tang frowned, looking at Shiqing Huayi in front of him.
“Tang-ge, I was just recruiting people for a dungeon run when Snow Smoke Pavilion members came looking for trouble.”
“Did they start fighting?”
Shiqing Huayi shook his head.
Everyone knew the relationship between Snow Smoke Pavilion and Peerless Tower was increasingly tense. It was obvious these two guilds were bound to clash.
As for when, that was still unknown.
Invincible Tang waved his hand, signaling him to step back, then smiled as he walked over to Yutian and his group.
“Since when did this Peaceful Town belong to your Snow Smoke Pavilion?”
“When did we ever say Peaceful Town was ours?” Yutian retorted.
Invincible Tang snorted coldly.
“Hmph, so it’s not yours? What business is it of yours if we run dungeon runs here?”
“Do you think I want to interfere? That bastard recruits people as he pleases and openly tells Snow Smoke Pavilion to scram. What, does he think we’re dead or something?”
Invincible Tang closed his fan, patted his palm, his expression darkening.
He glanced coldly back at Shiqing Huayi.
Talking big is one thing, but to get caught doing it—that’s just embarrassing.
He originally didn’t want to get involved since their side was in the wrong.
No matter what, this guy belonged to Peerless Tower.
If he just ignored it and walked away, the other members would definitely be disheartened.
“Speak. What do you want?”
Yutian crossed his arms, smiling.
“Nothing much. Just want that bastard to apologize.”
“Apologize my ass.”
“Who the hell do you think you are? Apologize to you?”
“Yeah, let Mu Qingxue come out and say it herself.”
Seeing his subordinates standing up to talk big, Invincible Tang did nothing to stop them.
Shiqing Huayi might not be the best, but he was still a Peerless Tower member.
Making him apologize was basically making the entire Peerless Tower apologize.
“What the hell do you think you are?”
Yutian’s temper flared again, pointing at them.
“Peerless Tower’s little dogs barking again? Has your master fed you dog food lately?”
“Hilarious. You lot, dogs of Mu Qingxue, just deserve to yap here. Come on, fight me if you’ve got guts.”
“Damn it, fight if you want to. Never heard such a weird demand before.”
Invincible Tang saw some members were already throwing punches and urgently called them to stop.
“Stop, everyone back.”
Peerless Tower had just over a hundred members, while the other side already had more than two hundred—a huge numerical disadvantage.
Continuing the fight would definitely be a loss for them.
One death meant a level drop. This penalty made them extremely cautious.
“Tang-ge, they’re so arrogant, what are we waiting for? Fight!”
“Exactly.”
“I said back off, didn’t you hear? If there’s going to be a fight, it’ll come.”
“Let’s go back.”
“Sigh.”
Peerless Tower and Snow Smoke Pavilion were both commercial guilds.
Their members got paid, otherwise, who would be so obedient?
These days, who still believed in brotherhood?
As long as there’s money, whatever you say goes.
“Bastards, running? Come on, fight! Scared?”
“See, they’re afraid. Told you, Peerless Tower is just a bunch of cowards.”
“Cowards!”
More than a hundred Peerless Tower members clenched their fists, veins bulging.
They wanted nothing more than to punch those smug faces right off.
Invincible Tang, who had been serious moments ago, suddenly broke into a smile.
“Go insult them. The harsher, the better.”
The hundred-plus members instantly brightened up and ran over to unleash a barrage of verbal attacks.
[Tianxia Wushuang: Stall for time, we’re arriving soon.]
[Tianxia Wushuang: Lure them outside Peaceful Town.]
Seeing this message, Invincible Tang’s lips curled into a faint smile.
This time, they were going to ambush Snow Smoke Pavilion.
He just wondered what expression Mu Qingxue would have when her over two hundred members all dropped a level.
“Really looking forward to it.”
At Invincible Tang’s signal, some Peerless Tower members began hitting and then retreating immediately, never giving Snow Smoke Pavilion a chance.
“What’s this? Hit and run? They’re just teasing dogs, aren’t they?”
“Teasing what?”
“Uh… I misspoke, sorry.”
Yutian stopped in his tracks, growing increasingly suspicious.
What was wrong with these people?
He pondered for a moment but couldn’t predict the outcome.
Abnormal events always had a cause, so he decided to contact the guild leader.
[Mu Qingxue: Didn’t Xiaoyan go over? Did you see her?]
Xiaoyan big shot?
Yutian looked around but didn’t see Chen Xiaoyan’s figure.
[Yutian: Didn’t see Xiaoyan big shot, guild leader.]
[Mu Qingxue: I’ll contact her.]
At that moment, in Peaceful Town’s teleportation array,
Chen Xiaoyan had just teleported in when a private chat notification popped up.
[Mu Qingxue: Xiaoyan, have you arrived at Peaceful Town?]
[Chen Xiaoyan: Just got here. What’s up?]
[Mu Qingxue: Peerless Tower is causing trouble. Go check it out. I’m busy now.]
[Chen Xiaoyan: Got it.]
She closed the chat window and hurried over.
After only a few steps, she saw the Peerless Tower members.
They had already started fighting.
But it seemed like they hadn’t really started fighting.
How to describe it? It felt like two groups of kids playing pretend, more like horsing around than a serious fight.
This scene utterly shocked Chen Xiaoyan.
I’m not well-read, don’t fool me—is this how guild wars in holo MMORPGs are supposed to be?
Just then, another private chat window popped up.
She clicked it open and was a bit stunned.
[Mu Qingxue: Xiaoyan, I just got word Tianxia Wushuang is bringing people to Peaceful Town.]
Chen Xiaoyan rubbed her forehead helplessly.
Looks like there are Snow Smoke Pavilion members inside Peerless Tower too.
Sure enough, the Immortal Realm couldn’t escape the classic scenes of traditional MMORPGs.
You plant people in my guild, I plant people in yours.
What was supposed to be a game was becoming a spy game.
However, when two guilds are evenly matched, information warfare becomes extremely important.
They even know which dungeon you ran today and how many times you teleported. What kind of game is this?
Tianxia Wushuang was already bringing people over.
It looked like a fight was inevitable.
Then fight it was.
After all, it was the Immortal Realm’s first guild war, and Chen Xiaoyan was quite looking forward to it.
She immediately shared her thoughts with Mu Qingxue.
[Mu Qingxue: Want to fight? Okay, I’ll call people over.]
[Chen Xiaoyan: Aren’t you afraid of losing?]
[Mu Qingxue: Doesn’t matter. Besides, I have your Returning Wind Umbrella, what’s there to fear?]
[Mu Qingxue: By the way, is this Returning Wind Umbrella that secret group healing skill?]
That sentence shocked Chen Xiaoyan.
How did Mu Qingxue know about the Returning Wind Umbrella skill?
Could it be that the Tianxiang players already had that skill?
