The buyer doesn’t need to pay tax, but the seller must, like when you go to a store to buy clothes, the purchaser doesn’t have to pay tax, but the seller must, and if the buyer resells the clothes, they need to pay tax again.

Therefore, whether for their own established standards or for the benefit of everyone in Wave Valley City, the Wave Valley Five Rats absolutely wouldn’t allow anyone to set up their own stall here. Even if it meant sacrificing their lives, they would fight it out. This isn’t just about money; it’s about dignity!

But their opponents were too strong, outnumbering them and surpassing them in strength by far, with even Crystal Level experts among them. Therefore, the Five Rats simply couldn’t resist, yet they refused to give up. For the time being, it was a stalemate, but this situation wouldn’t last long. Once their weaknesses were figured out, their opponents would naturally find a way to force them out.

Upon learning this news, Xin Yun smiled with satisfaction. Thinking it over, the Wave Valley Five Rats seemed to have made their debut in these few years in his previous life. Considering the current situation, they must have lost the final confrontation, which was why they had to leave their hometown and venture out.

However, things wouldn’t be the same in this life. With the variable of Xin Yun, the destiny of the Five Rats wouldn’t be the same as before. To recruit the Five Rats, Xin Yun had to ensure Wave Valley City was preserved. For now, Xin Yun just needed to wait patiently.

At the most critical moment, Xin Yun would naturally appear and present the Five Rats with an offer they couldn’t refuse, thus enticing them into his fold.

At noon, on the mountains next to Wave Valley City, thirty or forty dragons were circling the main peak. At the summit, the Wave Valley Five Sages were facing off against their opponents.

Although the Five Rats rode Mouse Dragons, they themselves were quite attractive, with slender and graceful figures, long hair flowing down to their waists, billowing in the wind, and their outfits were extremely fashionable. Overall, they exuded a ruffian vibe, wicked and mischievous.

These five guys might not be among the Nine Great Experts, but in terms of popularity, they were second to none, belonging to a super popular group with their own unique, sinister charm.

It’s worth mentioning that although they rode Mouse Dragons, don’t make the mistake of thinking of these Mouse Dragons as mere moles. These five Mouse Dragons were dark in color, boasting cool bat-like wings, and their wings covered in shiny, intricate scales, incredibly cool and arrogant.

Of course, in essence, these were still mice, mice with wings. Their body shapes were like that of a mouse, curling in mid-air, resembling a computer mouse with exceptionally smooth lines, the only difference being the bat wings on their backs.

As quintuplets, the five brothers looked exactly alike, even their Mouse Dragons were indistinguishable. Suspended in mid-air, even the flapping frequency and amplitude of their wings were identical, almost like a string of shadows.

As quintuplets who had grown up together, the five brothers could read each other’s minds without needing to speak. They knew each other’s intentions and thoughts and would instinctively coordinate with one another.

They operated as one entity and, thanks to this understanding, they became a formidable presence second only to the Nine Great Experts—though this was the case when all five of them were together.

The five brothers wore identical black leather outfits; their facial expressions were like they were carved from the same mold. The casual smiles they usually wore were all put away as they faced a formidable enemy, showing a rare seriousness.

Under different circumstances, the Five Rats would surely turn and run, relying on the Mouse Dragons’ powerful Invisibility, lightning-fast speed, and ability to evade both aerially and underground. Whether fleeing or executing a stealth attack, even if they couldn’t defeat the enemy, they could at least ensure their own safety.

But now, they had no way to avoid, no way to flee, and could only face the battle head-on. To avoid conflict would mean surrendering everything here to someone else; they were left with no choice.

As for the Five Rats, they were definitely an abnormal presence, slippery, and when they truly decided to run, not even the Nine Great Experts could hold them back. But right now, they had cornered themselves with no possibility of evading.

With cold frost in his eyes, Rat Big Brother looked at the three figures opposite them. The five brothers, who were rescued by fishermen from a broken ship at sea, were unknown by name. The villagers were simple, so they named them straightforwardly. But as the five guys grew up, they felt those names were too rustic, so they each chose a suitable name for themselves.

It had to be nice to hear and distinguish seniority, which was very challenging. They pondered for a long time without finding suitable names. Out of helplessness, they temporarily went by Rat Big Brother, Rat Second Brother, Rat Third Brother... as their names.

At this moment, Rat Big Brother coldly looked at the three figures opposite and said coldly, "We’ve already staked our claim here, and under no circumstances will we easily give it up!"

"Tsk..." With a sneer, the muscular man in the middle of the three opposite counter, "Whether you give it up or not is not for you to decide. I can’t be bothered to engage in idle talk with you. Are you going to face us in a duel or come at us all at once? Make your choice!"

"You!" At the opponent’s words, Rat Big Brother suddenly became enraged, yet he couldn’t say anything in return. The opponent’s strength was indeed too strong. In terms of individual power, they had Crystal Level experts, and for group fights, they had twenty or thirty people. Unless they fled, they had no chance whatsoever.
