“We should report this.”
“We did indeed make fools of our ourselves in this mission, but if we don’t tell the higher ups that such a powerful player has appeared in the Chinese server in time, we’ll be in even greater trouble.”
On the deck of the ship going out to sea were Flame Wolf, Golden Rakkhasa, and Bloody Hell Saber. They finally made a difficult decision.
They had used up a lot of manpower and resources when they lurked around in the Chinese server, but after finally seizing a great chance to kill Wandering Know-it-all’s disciple, Wind Chimes, they failed.
But what caused them the greatest gloom was that their plan of going back in an elegant manner had also failed.
“Well, what did the boss say?”
The messenger pigeon brought with it the details of the mission, and now, it flew back from the other side of the ocean back into Flame Wolf’s hands. Bloody Hell Saber and Golden Rakkhasa moved closer to him in great nervousness. They stared at Flame Wolf’s face, and they noticed his facial color kept changing. Because of that, they could not help asking.
Silence.
“I swear, if the leader punishes me this time, I will definitely teach that guy a lesson when we have the chance to go back to the Chinese plains in the future.” Golden Rakkhasa gritted his teeth and was prepared to face his leader’s wrath.
“This is…”
Flame Wolf read the letter a few times with a complicated expression. His expression also kept changing.
“What’s wrong with you? You’re making us nervous.” Bloody Hell Saber could not hold himself back from snatching the letter. “Let me take a look.”
Flame Wolf’s expression was strange, but oddly enough, he did not stop Bloody Hell Saber, even though his actions had overstepped boundaries. He just sucked in a deep breath with a dumbfounded expression while he cast his gaze to the ocean.
Silence fell among them for a while.
What Golden Rakkhasa did not expect was that once Bloody Hell Saber took the letter, he also read it a few times, as if he was possessed, just like Flame Wolf. He did not say anything even after a long time had passed.
Golden Rakkhasa decided to not even bother talking and just snatched the letter from Bloody Hell Saber’s hands.
On it was this word: Read.
“What does the boss mean by this?” Golden Rakkhasa read the letter for a long time with a stiff expression before he looked up in confusion.
He saw none of the anger he expected to see in the letter. There was no mocking words or accusations either. This was supposed to be an incredibly important task, but it seemed like the boss was treating it with disinterest, as if he was looking at a normal middle-aged lady on the streets.
Golden Rakkhasa looked at his team leader. “Flame Wolf, you have a good head. Think, just what mood did the boss have when he wrote this letter? Why do I think that it’s seriously strange that he reacted this way?”
“I don’t know what’s going either. I have to ask Spider.”
Flame Wolf also looked lost and baffled. He thought about this with a scowl for a long time before he made his decision. He sent another letter to Spider.
Spider was someone who was rather close to their leader, and he was good with words. He could guess most of what their leader was thinking of most of the time…
Very soon, they obtained news.
In truth, their leader already obtained the news of their failure before they even reported, and he was paying close attention to everything that happened in the Chinese server right now.
The trio felt instantly ill at ease.
[You idiots, you only thought about reporting this after the accident involving you has been uploaded for almost half a day on the official website?]
[…Is the leader mad?] Flame Wolf asked tentatively.
[You don’t say! This is something that was bound to succeed, but veterans like you failed. The plan the leader has been concocting over a year has failed, and you didn’t even report it on time. Would the leader’s mood be good?]
The trio’s faces were pale.
[Don’t worry. The few major events in the Chinese server over the past few days have all been caused by Happy. The leader already knows that person’s strength, and right now, his thoughts are probably not on you. You don’t have to worry too much.]
[Hmm?]
Flame Wolf was delighted, as if he just saw a silver lining. Then, his expression changed. [Happy did something major?]
[Yeah. You know Class One Hall, right?]
[Of course. I heard that they’re our new allies who are prepared to work together with us in secret to take down Wandering Know-it-all and Wind Assault Tower so that they can become the greatest force of power in the Chinese server. This time, the fact that we can lie in secret in the Chinese server for a month also proved that Class One Hall’s master does indeed have some skill and courage. Why did you suddenly mention them?] Flame Wolf answered and asked.
[One of their branches is just destroyed!] Spider threw a shocking news over.
The trio were stunned silent.
Even though they knew that the forces of power in the Chinese server was complicated, were largely interconnected with each other, and that Class One Hall was not the strongest sect in the Chinese server, it was just below Wind Assault Tower, and there was no doubt that Class One Hall was the greatest giant below Wind Assault Tower. In fact, it was only slightly weaker than Wind Assault Tower. Even Wind Assault Tower would not dare to readily attack Class One Hall.
Just who would dare to attack Class One Hall?
[Does this have to do with Happy?] Flame Wolf connected this with the clues Spider mentioned just now, and he felt shocked.
[That’s right. He did it,] Spider answered. [Not only did that person destroy a very important branch from Class One Hall alone, he also killed more than three thousand Class One Hall elites. Even in Wild Wolves, there are fewer than ten who have this sort of strength!]
[Is that guy so powerful?] Flame Wolf gulped laboriously.
Golden Rakkhasa was already prepared to take back his previous oath.
Perhaps it was not difficult to destroy a branch, but they might not be able to kill thousands of people alone, even if they had an endless supply of medicinal pills.
They knew just how hard the task was. That was why it was no wonder why Happy had attracted their leader’s attention.
[But let’s set this aside for now. We’ve already gathered all of Happy’s information, and the leader discovered many things.]
“Hmm?”
Spider replied, [I shouldn’t be telling you these things, but now, it shouldn’t be a secret anymore. That Happy not only has Tendon Changing Classic, Ten True Dragon Styles, and Wave-like Subtle Steps, he can also fight against elites at the peak of Myth Realm!]
“What?!”
The trio were stupefied once more.
Spider gave them another shocking piece of news. [The Prophet used that thing to learn about it. You know as well that while many have challenged Myth Realm NPCs, the dignity of those at the peak is still not shaken! Aside from the leader, very few people can fight against elites at the peak of Myth Realm alone!]
[That’s right.]
[But before he destroyed Sky Demon Branch, Happy fought against a very famous elite at the peak of Myth Realm for half an hour alone. He even scared away Empress Yin!]
[Empress Yin?!] The trio were now dumbfounded.
The trio were originally Chinese, and naturally, they understood Empress Yin’s strength.
[Are you saying that there is indeed a very powerful newbie who has appeared in the Chinese server?]
[What has caught the leader’s attention the most is that this person was really coincidentally in the area when he ruined your plan, and he has now formed a connection with our most stubborn enemy in the Chinese server, Wandering Know-it-all.]
“…Hiss.” The trio finally realized just how serious the matter was.
A powerful enemy who could threaten Wild Wolves had just decided to become allies with their most stubborn enemy. If that were the case, it was the same as the Chinese server having another top-class elite who could fight against Wild Wolves.
They might have another great force fighting against their great plan of entering and controlling the Chinese server now!
[What does the leader intend to do now?]
[Immortal and Peach Blossom have just mastered Bright Sword Technique, which is the sword technique they’ve been practicing from Bright Sword Sect lately. When those two work together, they can easily kill a normal Myth Realm elite. The leader has already ordered them to head to the Chinese server and carry out a secret mission.]
[A secret mission?]
[That’s not too appropriate, is it? Immortal and Peach Blossom might be strong, but once they’re in the Chinese server, they won’t be familiar with the place and the people. They might be easily targeted by Wandering Know-it-all.]
[They might not be familiar with it, but aren’t you familiar? The leader has already told me to tell you that you are to immediately head back to the Chinese server. You don’t need to come back, just turn around to the Chinese server to help Immortal and Peach Blossom. If you fail in this mission again, the leader will punish you to go to Africa to catch Sick Scavenger Rats.]
[…Spider.]
[Listening, or reading, since I’m reading your letter.]
[You’ve been yammering on for a while now, but you just want to tell us the environment and details of our mission, right?]
[Yup. As expected of Flame Wolf. The leader just mentioned that you will definitely have a way to let Golden Rakkhasa and Bloody Hell Saber return obediently to the Chinese server. Alright, that’s the end of the conversation. If you have further questions, I won’t be telling them to you for free. One question will cost you ten million. You can also choose to ask the leader yourself.]
“That damn Spider.”
Flame Wolf tore the letter in his hands and glared at the ocean with gritted teeth.
Before long, a small boat was released from the ship and fell in the water.
Three people with sour expressions then took the path back to the Chinese server.
*****
There were some who were delighted by Sky Demon Branch’s destruction, and some were miserable.
Blood Alliance and Five Venoms had given extra “care” to Hunter Clan, and now, Hunter Clan did not even dare to readily step out of the city.
However, ever since news of Happy destroying Sky Demon Branch alone got out, the people from Five Venoms and Blood Alliance vanished without a trace.
Hunter Clan walked out of the city smugly. They walked one huge round outside and finally found that no one from Blood Alliance and Five Venoms dared to harass them anymore.
“Darn it.”
“So lame.”
“I originally thought that we could run into a few people from Blood Alliance.” Old Pang and Young Pang thrust their stomachs forward and exercised their necks while they looked around. They said in utter disappointment, “With Fire Qilin Blood in our hands right now, I’d like those people from Blood Alliance and Five Venoms to kill me a few more times.”
“They’re not giving us the chance.”
Many of the players nearby heard their words had their cheeks twitch, and they did not know what to say either.
It was to be expected. Right now, Hunter Clan could be considered famous!
Sky Demon Branch was destroyed, all because of one messenger pigeon from Mu Qi, and it brought a great loss and humiliation to Class One Hall, and it was one they could not erase.
While the people outside did not spread this, those from Hunter Clan spoke about this a lot.
Right now, Mu Qi and his group had already received the Fire Qilin Blood Happy posted to him.
It was a sacred medicine that could increase dozens of their qi and heal all their internal injuries.
All of them longed for Blood Alliance and Five Venoms to continue causing trouble to them. They wanted to die a few more times so that Happy could kill more to vent his anger.
Naturally, they did not know that ever since the matter with Sky Demon Branch was known, Dream Clouds and Blood Robes had stopped all orders to attack Hunter Clan at the same time.
Even though they had been humiliated rather greatly, they knew that it was clearly an unequal trade to use such an inconspicuous group like Hunter Clan to agitate Happy in exchange for one hundred times the deaths of Class One Hall members.
