Darkness arrived in God's Domain once more. The lights in White River City shone brilliantly.

After the night had arrived, aside from a small number of experts and elite parties grinding in the fields, the majority of players could only head back to the city to rest.

While it was lively in White River City, the liveliest area, without a doubt, was the Candlelight Trading Firm.

As for the reason behind the Candlelight Trading Firm's popularity, that was due to the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits.

Although the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits were not as powerful as the Basic Mana Armor Kits, the latter was simply too scarce. It could not compete with the large number of Basic Strengthened Armor Kits available at the Candlelight Trading Firm every day.

Inside a high-class bar a short distance from the Candlelight Trading Firm...

Feng Xuanyang sat on the second floor open-air terrace, gazing at the Candlelight Trading Firm with a smile on his face.

"I want to see just how long you can hold out," Feng Xuanyang laughed, his expression clearly displaying his arrogance.

Initially, Feng Xuanyang had been slightly worried that the Candlelight Trading Firm's flourishing business would show no signs of ending. If that were so, it would not be easy to deal with the Firm in the future. However, during the process of poaching the Firm's workers, Feng Xuanyang had discovered a secret, a fatal weakness of the Trading Firm.

And that secret was that only three people in the Trading Firm knew how to produce the Basic Strengthened Armor Kit.

With just three people, it was simply impossible to satisfy the demands of the large number of players in White River City. Even if it were possible, a long time would be required to do so. By then, players would have outgrown their need for the kits.

Knowing this fatal secret, Feng Xuanyang began to spend large sums of money to purchase the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits, buying as many as he could.

First, he wanted to deplete the Candlelight Trading Firm's stockpile. As long as the Firm no longer had any Basic Strengthened Armor Kits remaining, the Firm's popularity would fall and limit its business. Although he had to invest a massive sum of Coins, the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits he bought were not completely useless. On the contrary, they were particularly helpful when raiding Team Dungeons.

Secondly, aside from striving to establish their own Guild Residences, the various Guilds in Star-Moon City also strived to accumulate sufficient money to purchase the city's golden Lands. Other than that, these Guilds were also continuously raiding large-scale Dungeons, improving their Guild's Popularity and equipment.

Meanwhile, other than giving the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits to his own teams, Feng Xuanyang also set aside a portion, selling them to other cities.

There was no Candlelight Trading Firm branch in other cities, so there were no Basic Strengthened Armor Kits available there. With Underworld's channels, Feng Xuanyang had sold these kits to the various Guilds of other cities. When these Guilds saw the kits, they fought tooth and nail to purchase them. As a result, he made a huge profit by reselling the kits.

It was truly killing two birds with one stone. Not only could he deplete the Candlelight Trading Firm's stockpile of armor kits, but he could also profit from reselling them. How could this possibly go wrong?

However, as he celebrated his plan, he had also gained a deep understanding of how fearsome the Candlelight Trading Firm was.

Fortunately, the Candlelight Trading Firm was only in White River City, and there were only three forgers capable of producing the Basic Strengthened Armor Kits. Should the Trading Firm ever resolve these two problems, it could definitely dominate Star-Moon Kingdom's market. At that time, who could possibly compete with the Candlelight Trading Firm?
