One of the three major guilds, Arc of Light, issued an ultimatum to Shen Xixi's newly formed union at midnight last night without any warning. It came as a complete surprise to Zhang Heng. They demanded an apology from Shen Xixi for the vicious conflict at Tongzhou that night, surrender the four murderers, and compensate for the losses. If she refused, they would declare war on her.
Since no third party was present at the time of the incident, players on the forum couldn't tell what really happened that night. According to Arc of Light, the number of players from their faction had been tracking down a monster. In the midst of the chase, they ran into another team of players belonging to the union. The Arc of Light players immediately issued the union's players with a warning, to which they were wise enough to give way to them.
