As Lufeng guessed, the purpose of Extreme Radiance's visit was indeed to win him over, and he had made the worst-case plan that if Lufeng did not ally with him, he would have Lufeng removed from the ranks.
Extreme Radiance is the leader of the Extreme Radiance Dynasty, which can also be referred to as the CEO of Extreme Radiance Dynasty. The overall strength and financial power of the formidable Extreme Radiance Dynasty were at their peak during the time of Heavenly Dragon.
Speaking of Heavenly Dragon, many people like to compare Asking Heaven with Heavenly Dragon. Players who entered the Wen Tian World all understood that Asking Heaven significantly enhanced the difficulty based on Heavenly Dragon and provided players with a new martial arts fantasy world. While retaining all the settings of Heavenly Dragon, it added its own system, deeply resonating with every player. This immersive experience that transcended the 21st century almost monopolized the virtual gaming world. Games like LOL, DOTA, CF, and DNF became outdated when Asking Heaven was released.
For this reason, Lufeng felt quite conflicted because the original game he played, Heavenly Dragon, did not have a Free Mode. Now he was on a completely new path, one that no one had ever walked before. The more unique it was, the more daunting its challenges became.
By a series of coincidences, Lufeng came across a video of his intense battle with Li Chonggui. From it, he gained insights into an intangible footwork technique and then comprehended this New Skill, all while facing crises along the way.
If it weren't for Extreme Radiance's arrival this time, Lufeng wouldn't fear the reckless actions of Laugh at My Madness. What he feared was that the shameless Laugh at My Madness might target Murong Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiaojing. Currently, these two women were an inseparable part of his life; as a man, he should protect what he wanted to safeguard.
Through this incident, Lufeng deeply understood that to protect others, one must possess the power to do so.
After thinking for a long time, Lufeng also realized that if he did not give Extreme Radiance a response today, leaving safely would be impossible.
Extreme Radiance was not in a hurry; he quietly waited while occasionally glancing at Wang Xiaojing and Murong Xiaoxiao. However, there was no hint of praise in his gaze—just a slight nod and a light smile. His fiancée, Royal Xiangxiang, was also an extraordinary beauty, so his immunity to beautiful women was naturally not weak.
As for why Royal Xiangxiang went to Royal Myth, many found it puzzling. There were countless beautiful women in Royal Myth, with seven ranked on the leaderboard. The male players were all veterans from Heavenly Dragon. Since Royal Beauty had some connections with them, she naturally wouldn't drive them away but also did not recruit any male players. When entering Asking Heaven, it was already stated that anyone wishing to join the royal family must be female and possess certain skills.
The relationship between Extreme Radiance Dynasty and Royal Myth remains an unsolvable mystery; no one knows how strong their backing is. However, one thing is certain: their financial power is absolutely the strongest. As for who is superior or inferior, it's impossible to determine.
After much contemplation, Lufeng ultimately conceded defeat. He had just been testing his endurance against Extreme Radiance, only to find that Extreme Radiance remained calm and composed with a smile. Thus, Lufeng had no choice but to break this deadlock and slowly said, "Since Leader of Extreme Showmanship considers me a friend and offers such righteous assistance, I shall address you as Brother Tian."
Internally, Extreme Radiance cursed: Old fox! Trying to get close right from the start. But I won't go easy on you.
"Ha ha, feel free. Titles are just a code name. I wonder if Brother Lufeng has taken a liking to my Extreme Radiance Dynasty after thinking for so long. A salary of 50,000 is just the starting point. If you can demonstrate your abilities, I will provide you with funding. If you find the Elder position too small, I can make you the Vice Leader. What do you think?" Extreme Radiance threw out two heavy offers in succession.
Regarding the Asking Heaven Gang system, it has added five positions—Steward, Helmsman, Hall Master, Guardian, and Elder—on top of the Heavenly Dragon foundation. The other positions and their functions are as follows:
[Leader]: 1. Appoint all officials 2. Approve new members 3. Declare war on other gangs 4. Trade Runs 5. Complete Gang missions 6. Change official titles 7. Issue tasks (construction, research)
[Vice Leader]: 1. Appoint officials other than Vice Leader 2. Approve new members 3. Trade Runs 4. Complete Gang missions 5. Issue tasks (construction, research) 6. Be appointed as Leader 7. If the Leader is offline for a month, become the Leader
[Elder]: Divided into External Elder (can join other gangs, no real power) and Internal Elder (cannot join other gangs, has real power): 1. Appoint officials outside of Elders 2. Approve new members 3. Trade Runs 4. Complete Gang missions 5. Issue tasks (construction, research) 6. Be appointed as Vice Leader
[Guardian]: 1. Appoint officials outside of Guardians 2. Approve new members 3. Can be promoted based on gang contributions
[Hall Master]: 1. Appoint officials outside of Hall Masters 2. Approve new members 3. Can be promoted based on gang contributions
[Helmsman]: 1. Appoint officials outside of Helmsmen 2. Approve new members 3. Can be promoted based on gang contributions
[Steward]: 1. Appoint officials outside of Stewards 2. Approve new members 3. Can be promoted based on gang contributions
[Internal Affairs Officer]: 1. Appoint officials (excluding Stewards and above) 2. Trade Runs 3. Complete Gang missions
[Public Works Officer]: 1. Trade Runs 2. Complete Gang missions
[Promoter]: 1. Trade Runs 2. Complete Gang missions
[Merchant]: 1. Trade Runs 2. Complete Gang missions
[Elite]: Complete Gang missions; all above belong to officials.
[Gang Member]: Complete Gang missions.
There can be a maximum of one Leader, two Vice Leaders, three Guardians, four Hall Masters, six Helmsmen, and eight Stewards; the number of officials is determined by the Gang's level (excluding the number of Leader and Vice Leaders). In reality, only the Leader, Vice Leader, Elders, Guardians have real power in a gang; Hall Masters, Helmsmen, Stewards, Internal Affairs Officers, Public Works Officers, Merchants are similar and only differ in name. Generally, Merchants may be removed easily, but Public Works Officers and Promoters are not so easily dismissed. Elites and Gang Members only differ in name and have no power at all.
Hearing Extreme Radiance so openly poaching people, Wang Xiaojing was very worried that Lufeng would leave her because of it. At the same time, she secretly resolved: if Lufeng was someone who would forget loyalty for money, then I must have been blind. If he stays, I will definitely cherish him.
Lufeng was conflicted. To say he wasn't tempted would be a lie, but one must have integrity and finish what they start. Aunt Wang had given him an opportunity; he couldn't just jump ship after only a few days. If he did that, although he might gain some short-term benefits, it would severely damage his network of relationships and destroy his moral bottom line. This was not an exaggeration; having been in society for many years, he had seen too many similar situations. Jumping ship without principles was shameless and could ultimately lead to losing both money and opportunities.
Seeing that Lufeng remained unmoved, Extreme Radiance became somewhat angry: "What? You just got here and you want to be the leader? That's a bit unrealistic, don't you think?"
Lufeng quickly explained: "Brother Tian, you misunderstood me. To be honest, I just joined Aunt Wang's Mythical Work Studio a few days ago. It was Aunt Wang who gave me this opportunity to enter Asking Heaven, so I can't be ungrateful, can I?"
Upon hearing Lufeng's response, Extreme Radiance smiled: "Oh, so that's how you see it. No problem. I know Aunt Wang. Her personal skills are quite impressive; we've had a few encounters before. Since she has opened a studio now, it seems she doesn't want to compete for the National Championship. If you join my gang, I'll give Aunt Wang an additional compensation of 100,000."
Lufeng shook his head: "It's not about the money!"
Extreme Radiance was completely furious: "It seems you are determined to stand against me?"
