"Since it's already late, we will leave for now and give you another night to think through it, Bai Lianhua! If you do not give us a response by tomorrow evening, we will put in an official request with the Cultivators' Association! If you don't respond or show up to our challenge, your faction's rank will drop by another ten ranks! How many ranks have your faction already dropped these past few months? 30? 40? Hahaha!" The robust young man laughed out loud as he pointed at the Bai Lianhua and the others.

"Both choices will require us to participate in the ranking match, you shameless bastard!"

"Yeah! Do you think you can start bullying us because you have the other families' support?! If you want a fight, you've got it!"

"Senior Sister Bai, let's teach these bastards a lesson!"

Bai Lianhua merely shook her head in silence before turning around and walking back into their headquarters.

Seeing this, the Fiery Locust Swarm left shortly after.

Once things calmed down and everyone returned to their residence, Yuan descended with Yu Rou and went to find Bai Lianhua.

"Welcome back. Did you enjoy your day?" Bai Lianhua said with a smile after seeing them, acting like the drama at their front gate had never even happened.

"Senior Sister, we saw what happened at the front gates." Yu Rou went straight to the point.

"Oh… sorry you had to witness that, Yuan." Bai Lianhua sighed.

"Fiery Queen sent those people to challenge your faction? Why?" he asked.

"Just to provoke and mess with us, I suppose. Our families have been rivals for generations—even long before we attained our current position, so we've been butting heads with each other for as long as I can remember. However, they have never been this aggressive before. I guess what happened last time had triggered something in Fiery Queen."

"So I am partially responsible for this?" Yuan muttered with a bittersweet smile.

"What? Of course not!"

"But it is true that I flipped that trigger."

"And who told Fiery Queen to conspire against you with the other families? She's one hundred percent responsible for her own actions, so don't you dare blame yourself for this, okay?"

"I understand, but I have to ask, what are you going to do now? From what I've seen, it seems like you don't want to fight them, even if it'll affect your ranking. Why? Are you not confident in defeating them? Eternal Lotuses should be pretty high up in the rankings, right? I doubt you've achieved such a rank without proper qualifications."

"You're right; we've managed to reach the top 10 in the world. However, that was before the system update. Now that people can acquire cultivation resources from Cultivation Online, we've been surpassed by many factions, as we do not have the resources to feed all of our members with treasures." Bai Lianhua sighed.

"And before you say anything, let me explain. While it's true that my family is quite resourceful—enough to increase all of our members' cultivation to remain in the top 10, I promised myself that I would not rely on my family's resources to assist my own faction. I created the faction because I wanted to achieve something with my own capabilities, after all. Most of our funding comes from my own wallet, which I earned through my own effort, and while I can afford a few treasures here and then, it's not nearly enough to keep our faction in the top 10 any longer."

"Moreover, the Bai Family has another faction, which is being led by its patriarch—my father. Even he does not have the resources to fund two large factions at once."
