“When you put it that way, it’s logical. But you mentioned that One Emperor is one of the top-class mercenaries, and that top-class mercenaries are much stronger than the current martial artists. Why did you say so?

“I’ve seen those who really know how to fight. Even though they aren’t the strongest, I’ve seen top-class mercenaries you mentioned, and I’ve even fought against them before.”

Wind Chimes, who originally liked talking nonstop, did not say a word and just listened to Silver Wolf and Happy’s conversation. Her sparkling eyes were wide as they stared at the two men without blinking.

She did not expect that the duo would have such a deep understanding of the game. She also did not expect that Silver Wolf, who was a man of few words and very cold, would be a very powerful person.

But just when she reached the peak of her excitement from the conversation, Silver Wolf turned his head around and cast her a glance. He swiftly stopped speaking and looked forward again. “There are some matters that will be better if I talk to you personally about them. If word gets out, it’ll be very troublesome.”

Happy nodded.

But when the duo showed great understanding toward each other and stopped talking, Wind Chimes got worked up, because she was engrossed in the topic.

“Hey!”

She caught up to them in great indignation and put on the innocent expression of a curious cat.

“You can’t do this. Come on, tell me. What do you mean by top-class mercenary? Silver Wolf, are you from INTERPOL, or are you part of the special force? Ack— Ouch!”

Before she could finish speaking, she received a whack on her head.

“You’re just a kid. Stop overthinking things.” Silver Wolf pulled his hand back with a calm expression. “Just focus on training, or else, you might end up being suppressed in the future, even though you’re currently very mighty.”

Wind Chimes’ expression changed. “Why?!”

She had gained her current achievements after much effort, so it was only natural that she did not believe that she would fade into obscurity again. But Silver Wolf was never the type to joke around, and she had already sneakily cast a glance at Happy. His face was calm, and he seemed to agree with Silver Wolf’s opinion, so she instantly became irritated.

“Do you think that after you inherited Six-fingered Demonic Zither’s legacy, you are invincible?” Silver Wolf could also tell that Wind Chimes had already become a little negligent with her training, and he wanted to make her alert and wary. “Forget about Happy, even I have many ways to kill you when you’re using your zither.”

When Wind Chimes heard it, she pulled a long face. “Hmph. Of course you do. I told you myself. The demonic zither’s greatest strength is in its ability to kill with sound, and its weakest point is qi. I need to worry about running into great players who have astonishing judgment and movement speed. If someone like you gets close to me, I can do nothing about it.”

“I don’t have an ultimate technique, and I can already do this, which means that my brothers can do it as well. As long as they get decent martial art manuals and have equally decent equipment to support them, they will have no problem in getting rid of your entire group of people with ultimate techniques.”

Silver Wolf saw that Wind Chimes was still indignant and refused to accept the truth, so he added, “Do you want me to get them some equipment so that they can fight against you?”

Happy had a slightly shocked expression while listening to him.

“Did they come from the same place as you did?”

Happy did not know the specific details about where Silver Wolf was currently located in real life, because the man had once mentioned that he needed to keep it a secret.

Wind Chimes originally wanted to agree to his challenge, but when she saw Silver Wolf nod, she instantly became dejected. If she ran into someone who was as calm and resolute in killing as Silver Wolf, it would be very difficult for her to use her zither to great effect.

Silver Wolf decided to strike while the iron was hot and gave Wind Chimes a warning. “So hurry up and increase your qi. The sooner you reach Life and Death Realm, the faster you can bring out the true strength of the demonic zither, and the chances of you staying among the top players in the game will be much higher.”

“Got it…”

“Silver Wolf, you mentioned that you have a few friends who are playing the game as well?”

Happy’s question attracted Silver Wolf’s attention, and he cast Happy a profound glance.

“I wanted to talk to you about it in the past, but I was afraid that you’d misunderstand. For a while, I’ve been exchanging resources from the clan storage to help them with their development. Now, their progress in the game is pretty good.

“They’re all in Life and Death Realm, and I think that it’s about time. I want to introduce them to Mu Clan. So, even if you run into true elites in the future, our clan will have a pretty decent force to protect it.”

Happy was happy.

“Hm… How many?”

“Three.”

“That’s great! With three fighters like you serving as garrison, Mu Clan will be even stronger than before. Go make arrangements. We’ll welcome them with open arms at any moment they come over.”

Happy knew very clearly that those three men should be people who had not appeared in his previous life.

They should have chosen other paths to earn money for the five million Silver Wolf had wanted, but since Happy had intervened and affected Silver Wolf’s life, all four of them remained in World of Martial Arts.

When Wind Chimes heard Silver Wolf and Happy’s conversation, she became restless again.

“Can I join Mu Clan as well?” she asked suddenly.

Happy was stunned for a moment.

If Demonic Sound Duchess joined them, she would naturally become a great force in Mu Clan. The murderous abilities of the zither notes were so great that they were equivalent to a one-hundred-man elite group.

But Happy did not immediately agree to her request.

“Is this what you want, or is it what your master wants?”

Happy knew about Wind Chimes and Wandering Know-it-all’s relationship. Wandering Know-it-all was a diviner, and in his previous life, his reputation and wealth had accumulated over the years to the point that countless people could not hope to reach, but he had never participated in the wars between sects.

Wind Chimes instantly fell silent. Clearly, Wandering Know-it-all had admonished her in a similar way before.

“After this is over, Class One Hall will definitely come to hate you. For the time being, return south, don’t stay in the north,” Happy said, changing the topic of conversation.

“What about you?” Wind Chimes asked in reflex.

“I’m still doing a quest. I only learned about you two being trapped after I received a letter from your master. I haven’t finished that quest yet, so I have to go back and continue with the quest.”

“Then doesn’t that mean that I can’t play anymore?” Wind Chimes had a gloomy expression on her face.

Happy and Silver Wolf were instantly speechless. They ignored her and continued on their way.

“What are your friends’ in-game names?”

“Knife, Bar, and Thunder.”

When Silver Wolf said the three names, his voice sounded a bit awkward. It was clear that he felt incredibly embarrassed by the names his brothers gave themselves.

Happy did not feel that there was anything wrong with them. He quietly remembered them and said, “If they have anything they need, they can ask me directly. I have some equipment and martial arts manuals with me.”

As of then, Mu Clan was steadily progressing on its path to greatness, and their clan storage was as great as a new century trade city. It had everything, and there was no longer any need for Happy to personally put equipment and other such things inside. Hence, he kept most of his loot for the Three Lonely Wolves, Xu Xin, and some other people.

“You’re currently my employer, and I don’t want to owe you too much, lest that period of five years is elongated indefinitely,” Silver Wolf said with a smile. “Don’t worry. They can handle whatever they need themselves, aside from refined equipment, but they can use contribution points to get it from the clan storage.”

“Sure, whatever you want.” Happy’s expression was as calm as usual. He did not force Silver Wolf to accept his suggestion. “If you have anything you need, just tell me. We’re at Mount Song now. I need to go up to Shaolin Temple. You’ll have to take care of yourselves after this. Be careful.”

When he thought about how he had finally reached a breakthrough with Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm after his trip to Beijing and managed to understand two of its attacks, Happy was eager to go up Punishment Mount and verify his strength against Master of Breaking Vows.

He touched the Golden Gloves on his hands, sensed the cold sensation from them, and suddenly, great confidence rose in his heart!
