Sword Among Us - Chapter 1241
The Chinese players saw hope because of the encouragement given to them by the tournament. They seemed to feel like the threat from more than one thousand supreme-class elites had faded away by a large degree, and Evil Emperor was not really such an unstoppable force.
Countless people shouted that they wanted to form an alliance and head to West Region so that they could give the Wild Wolves a lesson. There were also people who suggested that Happy should take up the responsibility and be the alliance master of the Chinese alliance.
The tournament area descended into an unprecedentedly enthusiastic atmosphere.
Lin Xiao got up.
“Sect Master Happy, while we were at Song House, I told you that if there are any operations to fight against the Wild Wolves, I’ll be the first to join it, and Chivalry Alliance will also be duty bound to join it!”
“Alliance Master Lin, you’re a chivalrous man, and I admire you for it!”
Happy wrapped his fist in his palm and said, “This time, our trip to West Region will be filled with dangers. If you’re willing to make the people from Chivalry Alliance join the operation, I’ll definitely welcome you. How would I possibly deny you from joining the operation?”
He stopped talking for a moment, then turned around and said to Phantasmal Shadow, who was prepared to stand up and speak as well. “Tower Master Shadow, there is no need for you to say anything. You have been fighting against the Wild Wolves for the longest time, and you’re the leader of one of the top sects in the Chinese plains, you definitely should not be excluded from the trip. But this time, all of Lovely Land will be moving out, and we still have Dream Clouds to deal with in the Chinese plains. If there is no one guarding the Chinese plains, she will cause trouble, and all of our previous efforts will come to a waste. That’s why I hope that you can stay back and guard the south so that you can ensure that the south remains peaceful.”
“Sect Master Happy is right. Wind Assault Tower was badly damaged by the two battles months ago. Right now, you haven’t fully recovered. You should seize the time to nurse yourself back to health while you guard the Chinese plains for us. You can be considered to be getting rid of our worries for us too.”
Lin Xiao spoke up in agreement.
Phantasmal Shadow opened her mouth. She did not expect that she would be excluded from the Imperial Army.
Right when she wanted to say something, Wandering Know-it-all, who shared a good relationship with her, said with a stern and serious expression, “He’s right! Happy, Phantasmal Shadow, one of you must stay in the Chinese plains to deal with the possibility of Dream Clouds causing trouble. Blood Alliance had a group of people who would do anything for money. If Dream Clouds managed to buy over these refugees and make them cause trouble while we’re not around, we’ll not be able to be at ease even if the Imperial Army heads to West Region.”
When she heard this, Phantasmal Shadow’s expression changed rapidly. In the end, because the three giants had reached an agreement, she nodded gravely.
“If that’s the case, I’ll stay behind.”
“Good!” Lin Xiao’s spirits were lifted. “With you guarding the Chinese plains, we can head to West Region at ease and beat up those Wild Wolves. We’ll take revenge and settle our grudges!”
“Alliance Master Lin, don’t worry, you’ll have the chance to do so.” Happy smiled. “But we can’t mobilize too many people out of West Region. I’m only prepared to send twenty thousand people from Lovely Land!”
“Twenty thousand people?”
Lin Xiao was stunned.
He stared at Happy and originally wanted to say that the supreme-class elites in the Wild Wolves were all people who could fight against ten people alone. Twenty thousand people might not be enough to get rid of them. But when he thought about the number of times Happy fought against the Wild Wolves and how his experience against them was much greater, he knew that he did not need to give him any sort of reminder at all, so the words that had already reached his tongue died away.
Lin Xiao frowned and thought about it for a while before he came to a decision. “Since that’s the case, I’ll send ten thousand people from Chivalry Alliance!”
To Chivalry Alliance, which had less than four hundred thousand people, sending out ten thousand people meant that Lin Xiao was sending out all the elites from Chivalry Alliance.
Happy knew about Lin Xiao’s worries, but he did not want to reveal all his trump cards in public and tell him that he had one thousand five hundred supreme-class elites in Lovely Land.
Also, Happy knew that Lin Xiao was currently in a difficult situation.
This was because Lovely Land was entirely in control of the north, and most of the south was in Wind Assault Tower’s hands. Chivalry Alliance might be a supreme class sect, but the resources they had were very little.
If a sect had few resources, it would be very difficult for them to continue retaining hundreds of thousands of members.
But Happy could not ask Lovely Land and Wind Assault Tower to give him the resources they already had.
This was not a good method.
To someone as prideful as Lin Xiao, this would be a charity he would not be able to accept.
Hence, instead of watching Chivalry Alliance continue falling into decline slowly, Happy thought of a pretty good method.
He would have Lin Xiao take part in the distribution of resources in the countries in West Region.
When the three of them came to a decision, Happy immediately announced this news to the public.
The tournament area instantly burst into a ruckus.
The sect leaders from all over the Chinese plains stated that they would send their forces over.
But Happy’s requirements for them were as below:
They could send their forces, but they must have supreme-class elites, because they were going to face Wild Wolves, which was a supreme-grade organization, and the Wild Wolves were the best in splitting up to ambush or harass others. The usual player could not pose as a threat to the elite Wild Wolves.
This requirement instantly made many people fall silent.
Even though they felt dejected, what Happy said made sense!
But it did not mean that they had nothing to do.
They were to increase their guard and defend the Chinese plains so that they could prevent Class One Hall and Blood Alliance from rising from the ashes.
They set the time to enter West Region, and Happy announced the official end to the tournament.
Half an hour later, the large tournament area turned empty.
Happy, Lin Xiao, Phantasmal Shadow, Wandering Know-it-all, and Ji Feng stayed at the stage for the hosts.
When he saw that there were no other people in the tournament area, Happy and Phantasmal Shadow’s expressions swiftly turned dark. Happy turned around to face Wandering Know-it-all.
“Big Brother Wanderer, what happened?”
Wandering Know-it-all held an item shaped like an inkstone. With a dark expression, he stared at the black patterns that kept on changing on it. He shook his head slowly. “Something bad happened!”
“…”
When they heard Wandering Know-it-all’s grave words, they looked at each other, and they saw the unease in each other’s eyes.
Wandering Know-it-all sucked in a deep breath and spoke again, “Now, I finally know why Evil Emperor gathered so many suprema-class elites at the borders of West Region. He’s not thinking about entering the Chinese plains. Instead, he’s trying to perfect his Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art.”
Happy felt his heart let out a loud thump. He exchanged a quick glance with Phantasmal Shadow, and both of them knew that things were bad. They spoke together, “Big Brother Wanderer, has Evil Emperor pushed his Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art to perfection?”
Both of them knew that Wandering Know-it-all would never say such things randomly.
If what Happy said came true, then things had definitely become really bad.
Under their uneasy gazes, Wandering Know-it-all nodded slowly.
“He killed Martial Paragon Bi Xuan and completed the final step for Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art. Now, he can be said to have reached the dao of heaven a step ahead. He has already understood the power of the dao of heaven.”
“He’s in the dao of heaven?”
Happy’s pupils shrank a little, and he sucked in a sharp breath.
With his current strength, he could only create attacks that are equivalent to the people in the dao of heaven with the help of Heaven Crystal. He was still a complete greenhorn when it came to the dao of heaven.
If Evil Emperor had officially entered the dao of heaven and became someone whose strength was equivalent to those in the dao of heaven, then when Happy faced the pressure of his attacks, the only thing he could rely on was his Full Winds in Long Skies, along with Wild Fights in All Directions, which could only be executed once every half a minute as well.
Lin Xiao and Ji Feng were still wondering about what Wandering Know-it-all meant by Evil Emperor perfecting Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art, but based on Happy and Phantasmal Shadow’s nervous expressions, they could understand just how serious the matter was.
“No matter how strong he is, Evil Emperor is alone. We have Happy and One Emperor, isn’t that enough?”
“That’s right!”
Lin Xiao’s words gave a reminder to Phantasmal Shadow and Ji Feng, and it also snapped Wandering Know-it-all out of his worries.
The three people’s eyes lit up.
“That’s right!”
“If One Emperor and Happy work together, even if Evil Emperor has the power of those in the dao of heaven, he might not be able to win against them.”
“We also have Whirlwind Young Li and Green Lit Wooden Fish. They’ve also surpassed the normal supreme-class elites. They aren’t that much weaker than One Emperor…” Wandering Know-it-all felt his spirits lift.
“We can also use Orochimaru and Wind Void!”
But only Happy knew that things were not that simple!
If he had already perfected Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art, he would definitely not have just reached the dao of heaven. Evil Emperor’s defense and speed would definitely surpass himself and One Emperor!
At that time, they would not be able to solve the problem as easily fighting two against one.
Besides…
Happy frowned in secret.
He was still not sure as to whether Orochimaru had made his decision.
The other one, Green Lit Wooden Fish was definitely stronger than Whirlwind Young Li, and his explosive power was not below One Emperor at all, but he made Happy uneasy, because there was a high possibility that he belonged to Dream Clouds.
If he sent these four people to West Region, they might not be able to be of any help. In fact, they might cause quite the huge problem. Orochimaru was just as strong as Wind Void, but his methods were definitely more ruthless, and Whirlwind Young Li had lost to Green Lit Wooden Fish in just one move.
When he thought of this, Happy sucked in a deep breath, and he became even more certain that he had to meet up with Orochimaru in reality.
‘Since the matter has already happened, this is the only plan that I can come up with for the time being.’
Happy said, “I won’t change my plan to enter West Region. We’ll move out tomorrow. Ji Feng, order our members in West Region to fend against the people who enter the Chinese plains from the borders of West Region. Big Brother Wandered, from now on, you’ll have to keep an eye out of Evil Emperor’s location at all times!”
“Got it!”
The intrasect tournament in Lovely Land and the tournament area that was spontaneously opened with a fee of tens of millions of taels of gold turned into the focus for all Chinese plains on this day. In fact, quite a number of forces of power in the world searched for information online. They wanted to know how much the new force that had risen to power in the east and were mortal enemies with Wild Wolves had grown in power.
Ji Feng had ordered the sect members to pay attention of the filming, and now, on the pay-to-view channel on the official website, it became the only video of the tournament area that passed the examination of the pay-to-view channel.
The tournament this time attracted a lot of people’s attention!
Even Dream Clouds could sense the excitement in the tournament from the start to the end of the pay-to-view channel, even though she was only watching it from the distance.
Every single time someone displayed great skills in the tournament, Dream Clouds’ expression became darker.
Howling Moon and his group’s strength and skills were something that Dream Clouds could tolerate.
But when Silver Wolf and his party showed the Four Matchless Sword Formation to them, Dream Clouds could keenly sense the outstanding power in the sword formation.
Even though its power was below the dao of heaven, this sword formation meant that it had allowed Lovely Land to have elites in the middle stage of Myth Realm, which was a first among the supreme-class elites in the Chinese plains, and when they worked together, it even meant that they had one person whose strength was really close to the peak of Myth Realm.
To the players who had yet to be completely rid of the trauma dealt on them by Myth Realm fighters, these four people were already people they could not deal with!
But when Whirlwind Young Li’s strength was revealed, Dream Clouds’ breathing instantly quickened.
She frowned for a long time, and she could not remain calm.
