Sword Among Us Chapter 642

Chapter 642 - Wind and Rain Alliance

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was a city in the coastal area to the south. In the evening, a built man sat quietly alone by a window on the first floor of Snow Splash Tower. He had a pot of wine and a wine cup in his hands, but he did not move even after a long time had passed. His gaze was solemn, and there was a frown on his face, as if there was a gloomy shadow hanging over him that just would not go away.

Thud, thud, thud.

Powerful footsteps came from the stairs. Judging by the sound, quite a number of people came.

Night Rain Follows Wind sighed deeply. He slowly poured wine into his cup. At the same time, he redirected his gaze to a young man full of smiles. He was the person who entered with five guards behind him.

“Big Brother Wind!”

When the newcomer saw the man sitting by the window, a complicated smile appeared on his face. He approached Night Rain Follows Wind with a greeting. “Sorry I’m late. I made you wait, didn’t I?”

“Sit.”

Night Rain Follows Wind cast a glance at the five unfamiliar faces behind the newcomer and calmly told him to sit down before speaking with an underlying meaning, “Young Xie, last time, whenever you had to see me, you would come over very quickly. Back then, we talked about everything.”

The expressions of the young man known as Young Xie changed slightly.

Night Rain Follows Wind looked into his eyes before speaking again. “But ever since Wind and Rain Alliance was set up and you became the vice master of the alliance, and Abyss Tower grew under your lead, you come with guards whenever you have to see me. We seem to have become rather distant.”

Young Xie was the second most important person behind the alliance of sects known as Wind and Rain Alliance, which was a very famous alliance that had recently risen to power in the south. He was its vice master—Xie Yi!

“Heh, Big Brother Wind, you misunderstand. It’s because the south is rather chaotic recently.”

Xie Yi smiled while sitting down across from Night Rain Follows Wind and explained his actions in a perfunctory manner. “For the benefits of our brothers in the alliance, I’ve come into quite a number of conflicts with Chivalry Sect, and I’m worried that they will try to launch a sneak attack on me instead of challenging me to a fair fight!”

The young man who spoke possessed quite the bearing and demeanor, especially when he had five guards standing behind him. They looked around the entire area, and many of the players on the first floor did not dare approach them after they received a warning and threatening look.

There was silence at the table for a time.

When Night Rain Follows Wind saw that, he shook his head repeatedly.

‘He just refuses to regret his actions!’

In the beginning, Abyss Tower was just a small sect affiliated to Wind and Rain Sect. When Night Rain Follows Wind set up the alliance, he made Xien Yi an exception when he promoted him out of a dozen other sect masters to become the vice alliance master of Wind and Rain Alliance.

Xie Yi then relied on the resources Wind and Rain Alliance obtained to rise from the ashes and enjoy various successes!

He was a very talented person. In the beginning, he relied on Night Rain Follows Wind’s fame and prestige to manage everything in an orderly fashion, which allowed him to gain quite a number of sects’ trust. He grew rather popular in time, and when Night Rain Follows Wind went to carry out a quest for Beggar’s Sect, Xie Yi quietly obtained public resources as well as abused his power for his personal gain and Abyss Tower…

Abyss Tower had developed rapidly with his help, and it quickly became the second largest sect in Wind and Rain Alliance!

Night Rain Follows Wind might have heard about it, but he did not intervene too much. He only asked Xie Yi to act in moderation. After all, Xie Yi was also the leader of a sect, and it was excusable for him to gain some benefits for his sect.

But recently, some of the actions Xie Yi did made him unable to stand by and watch anymore!

*****

Even though Wind and Rain Alliance had taken in more than twenty large sects and could compete against the four top-class sects as well as various other alliances, the hearts of the twenty or so sects were not united as one. Their act of having great confrontations against Chivalry Sect had resulted in quite a number of sects suffering rather huge losses, and the whole alliance was treading on thin ice.

Wind and Rain Alliance had been forced into a precarious situation!

And the person who made the sects fight against Chivalry Sect was the second most important person in Wind and Rain Alliance—Xie Yi.

Throughout it, not only had Wind Void and Lin Xiao come to him repeatedly to talk to him in hopes of stopping the hostilities between the two sides and working together in harmony, but even certain groups from Mu Clan had been alarmed.

Night Rain Follows Wind had come into contact with Lin Xiao and Red Dust, and he knew their personalities. He also knew clearly that they did not wish for bloodshed.

However, even after he had contacted people and tried to put a stop to the fights multiple times, they happened time and again, and Xie Yi as well as Abyss Tower were behind all of the attacks!

Xie Yi’s justification was rather boastful: he wanted the alliance to do everything it had to help Wind and Rain Tower rectify its name. They would seize back everything that had once belonged to Wind and Rain Alliance from Chivalry Sect!

The perfunctory words made Night Rain Follows Wind certain that Xie Yi definitely had a goal that no one else knew.

After contacting him multiple times, Night Rain Follows Wind was forced to send the final diplomatic notice. He demanded Xie Yi to meet him for a detailed discussion!

However, when Xie Yi came over, he actually brought elites from Abyss Tower to accompany him.

Night Rain Follows Wind felt his heart sink, but he subconsciously wished that Xie Yi would tell him the truth.

“Young Xie.”

When Xie Yi noticed the solemnness and seriousness of Night Rain Follows Wind’s tone, he dropped the smile.

Night Rain Follows Wind’s voice traveled slowly into his ears. “I don’t know why you keep instigating the sect masters in the alliance to fight against Chivalry Sect. You know very well that there is no resource point that belongs to anyone. We are all allowed to excavate the resources together. Monopolizing them will do neither Chivalry Sect nor us any good. This has always been our rule, and you’re now trying to break this peace.”

“Big Brother Wind, I can’t agree with what you say.” Xie Yi’s expression darkened. He did not look at Night Rain Follows Wind’s eyes, but picked up the pot of wine from the table and slowly poured himself a cup. “The one who initially caused trouble is Chivalry Sect. They said that they wanted to snatch all the resource points from our hands, and they killed dozens of our members. As the vice master of the alliance, there’s no wrong in me seeking justice for them, right?’

“Chivalry Sect has already handled that matter. Lin Xiao personally told me that the person’s goal was to instigate a fight between major powers. Right now, that group of people have already been expelled from Chivalry Sect, but you’re still refusing to stop. You have another goal in mind, don’t you?”

“Of course.” Xie Yi did not deny it this time.

He snorted coldly and looked into Night Rain Follows Wind’s eyes. With an incredibly bewitching tone, he lowered his voice and said, “Before, when we formed Wind and Rain Alliance, our goal was to win rights existing in the gaps between the four top-class sects.

“Right now, Chivalry Sect is not as it used to be. It’s clear that there are constant internal conflicts within it, so why shouldn’t we take the opportunity to replace them?”

“What nonsense are you spewing?!”

Night Rain Follows Wind trembled, and his gaze instantly darkened.

“Nonsense? Me?” Xie Yi scoffed and laughed. “Right now, Chivalry Sect occupies far too many resources. The members of Wind and Rain Alliance are more numerous, but we have less than half of their resources. This is unfair.”

He stopped talking for a moment, and under Night Rain Follows Wind’s shocked gaze, he added boldly, “Our fight against them this time is enough proof that the members of Chivalry Sect aren’t as united as we thought they were. As long as we can destroy Chivalry Sect, Wind and Rain Alliance will become the fourth top-class force of power. Hmph!

“At that time, all of Chivalry Sect’s resources will fall into our hands. Big Brother Wind. Once that happens, you will understand just who I am doing this for!”

Bang!

Night Rain Follows Wind was so mad that he trembled and slammed the table before rising from his seat.

“You’re mad! Your ambitions will destroy Wind and Rain Alliance! I can’t allow you to continue doing this!”
