Monarch Night

...

We must say, those twenty-seven people later on were already dealt with by these over six hundred people like little lambs, taking on all the dirty and tiring work, and they even enjoyed it.

Because... their future achievements were within reach.

So even these twenty-seven were against allowing others to join.

"Why should we!"

"What do you mean by doing the dirty work instead of me, I just like doing the dirty work!"

"What do you mean by being able to vent anger on newbies, I don't like scolding people, I just like being scolded."

"Finally found a good place, and now so many people want in, that's not okay!"

"If everyone succeeds, won't those strong families squeeze out my position when we return?"

"Exactly, exactly, we must be cautious."

After a round of discussion.

The people from the Escort Agency reached a consensus.

They wrote home in unison: "…It's not that we don't want to help, but things are already established here, and the Yin Sect Leader of the Yixin Sect has reported the entire situation to headquarters, now we are just waiting for headquarters' inspection."

"In this situation, the Yin Sect Leader specifically instructed the Leader not to recruit more people, in case recruiting causes any issues, it'd be all for nothing, the impact would be too great, you know how the people on our side are... "

"The Starlight Master has also issued a strict order to us..."

"This place is already overcrowded, a small Escort Agency with seven hundred heads of the escort, but only about three hundred escorts, and a mere eighty-five messengers... it's completely unbalanced."

"If more come in... over a thousand heads of the escort? That's obviously going to get us checked out, right?"

"Escort Agency? The Escort Agency is already pretty established, if it grows any bigger, it'll be like establishing a small city in Baiyun State City... In this situation, my uncles and seniors, please consider, this... this can't happen. After all, this is the Guardian's territory."

" I'm just a minion here... you overestimate me..."

"..."

Anyway, all are rejections.

Upon receiving the message, those requesting were replied to in the same manner.

"Truly no way, the kids over there are also not in charge of themselves..."

"Understand, understand, long live understanding..."

Seeing as their requests were not successful, quite a few Family Heads immediately turned hostile and started threatening.

"Mr. Zheng, do we really need to discuss how that Starlight Master's Worldwide Escort Agency was established? Shifting the blame onto Hai Wuliang, everyone accepted it, but you can't deny that this Escort Agency sub branch's rise is somewhat shady, right?"

"Those reports from before, heh heh... let's not speak in riddles, if they didn't do anything, how could they become a cooperative unit of the Guardian Hall? And even become a model? How much of our own people's blood is involved here? Best not be too transparent, right?"

"Exactly, exactly, Brother Wu, consider this clearly, many have died. Many families are involved."

Such threats angered the Zheng and Wu families, among others.

"Becoming a cooperative unit, a world model, that's because the kids are capable and handle things well, what does it have to do with the dead?"

"As for those people, they all died at the hands of Hai Wuliang, victims of the Yemo Sect. Revenge has been sought, how can it still be pinned on our kids as holding grudges? Even if this goes up to the Sect Leader, we have a justified case!"

"Never seen anyone seek revenge twice for the same death!"

"The real culprit didn't deny it, the victims have vented their anger, and yet unrelated parties like you are being relentless? Isn't this sowing discord?"

"Do you think we're brainless?"

"Such groundless accusations!"

"Our kids are all well-behaved!"

"What's your agenda?"

"..."

And so the disputes between the Shi families began once more.

The issue gradually spread, reaching the ears of those families who had lost people, with some trying to incite them.

"It's likely those people from the Worldwide Escort Agency who reported them..."

"Otherwise, how could they cooperate with the Guardian Hall and even become a model... this is obvious."

"This is intolerable, our children can't die in vain."

However, when faced with such incitements, those families who had suffered losses all showed little interest, wearing indifferent expressions.

"Revenge has already been taken... the Yemo Sect are the culprits..."

"I know what you mean, wanting to become models involves shady means, and indeed there's a lot of blood on their hands."

"But what does that have to do with my son? My son was killed by the Guardian Hall, or by Hai Wuliang, or died due to reports... isn't it all the same?"

"Why stir things up? We've avenged, we've grieved, what more can be done? Besides, even if there were solid proof my kids were killed by them, what could we do? They have six or seven hundred families united, and we seek revenge? Are you helping us or setting us up for failure?"

"You're urging us to oppose six or seven hundred families at once? Why don't you go yourself? Oh, your sons aren't dead yet? Damn it, why isn't your son dead yet?"

"Get out, get out!"

"Your own kids want to stay safe, want bright futures, yet you're egging us whose kids are dead to charge ahead for you? What a fine scheme!"

"Get out, I sever all ties with you from today forth, deeply malicious! Truly malicious!"

"I curse your son to die tomorrow! Go get your revenge!"

...

This was the greatest effect of the Starlight Master's plans from the beginning.

Firstly, people were dying all over the Southeast Seventeen Continents, compared to the total, how many died in Baiyun State? Secondly, many people died even before the Worldwide Escort Agency was established.
