Faced with Luo Quan's aggressive pressure, Jiang Chen showed no intention of backing down.
His gaze sharpened.
Although he had heard about the Artifact Refiner Guild's rules, he was unwilling to shut down now. Chenxi Pavilion had just started to catch the eye of Xingyuan City's Martial Cultivators, and this was his chance to build a reputation.
Jiang Chen also knew that the Artifact Refiner Guild's power was not to be underestimated.
More importantly, the Artifact Refiner Guild had deep ties to the Zuo Family, an Artifact Refining Family in Xingyuan City.
In fact, the Artifact Refiner Guild was now almost entirely under the Zuo Family's control.
Luo Quan could see that Jiang Chen and his companions possessed some real strength, so he didn't want to resort to brute force.
Still, he said, "Today, no matter what, you're shutting down."
"You can only reopen after you've obtained a permit from our Artifact Refiner Guild."
"This is the rule. No one can defy it."
