Chapter 755: “Slaughter Our Way Out!”

‘Wind Chimes died?’

When Happy received this news from somewhere else, he remembered a petite and gentle figure in white who always followed Silver Wolf around while she carried around a ridiculously large sword casket.

Nine Yin Blocked Pulses…

He remembered that Wandering Know-it-all once mentioned to him that Wind Chimes’ progress in training martial arts was much faster than other people, but that was because she had limits from her genetic predisposition. She cannot practice a lot of martial arts, and she also had a lot of inconveniences while she moved around the game. The most dangerous thing for her was that if she died because of a moment of carelessness, most of her previous hard work will be gone like the wind.

She will still be the successor of Six-fingered Demonic Zither, but after she played Soul Breaking Song, she will have to do everything over.

“Towering Palace, Class One Hall…”

Happy clamped his legs around the horse’s side while he repeatedly said the two names he had mumbled countless times throughout this journey. The cold glare in his eyes grew sharper.

They had more than two thousand of their own die in Yangzhou City.

Aside from Happy, there were a lot of elites to whom Happy could remember their names also died.

Right now, it should already be impossible for them to continue protecting their branch in Yangzhou City.

Silver Wolf, Little North, and the others were in a very perilous situation!

All of this was because of a small oversight on his part.

He did not expect that Tang Feng will actually hand over one Heavenly Lightning and Fire to Class One Hall, who threw it into Mu Clan’s branch in Yangzhou City!

Crack! Crack!

The clear sounds of horse whips rose. The wind howled. A cold chill charged swiftly to the end of the government-made road along with the galloping Hoof Shadow.

Flap flap flap.

Another messenger pigeon flew through the air and appeared in front of Happy. Happy quickly caught it, and when he saw the name written at the back of the letter, he frowned. He could not help but have a guilty look appear on his face.

It was Wandering Know-it-all’s letter!

There were only two sentences written in a scrawl on the letter.

[I’ve already sent someone to retrieve Wind Chimes. Take revenge for her!]

The message was very simple and straightforward. At the same time, it revealed a caretaker’s complicated and conflicted emotions.

Happy did not hesitate. He quickly wrote a reply, hesitated for a moment, before he still chose to send the letter!

*****

In Beijing was Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion. There was a middle-aged man in a white robe that made him look like a scholar. He caressed the messenger pigeon that was huddled up at his curled arm while he read the letter. He frowned before he mumbled, “What’s the reason behind him only destroying Towering Palace…?”

Even though he could predict certain things in the game as if he was God himself, Wandering Know-it-all still could not perfectly read a person’s mind.

For example, Mu Clan’s branch in Yangzhou suffered a devastating loss. They lost nearly three thousand elites, but Happy still managed to hold back and promise to destroy Towering Palace while avoiding Class One Hall.

Wandering Know-it-all thought about this for a moment before he quickly received the second messenger pigeon.

It was still from Happy.

Some additional words were added in the letter. He stated that he will definitely destroy the foreign organization who joined the ambush of Mu Clan’s branch this time, and he will not pardon anyone who killed Wind Chimes.

“Foreign organizations…” He mumbled to himself while Wandering Know-it-all read the second letter a few times. He finally gradually understood certain things from the words.

‘Dragon Sect… Towering Palace…’

“I see!” Wandering Know-it-all released a sigh of relief once he obtained his answer. He wrote a reply and released a messenger pigeon.

*****

[Thank you for your understanding.]

Once Happy received Wandering Know-it-all’s reply, he finally exhaled and became completely relieved of anxiousness.

This time, Class One Hall and Towering Palace took the initiative to declare war and stirred up a war in the Chinese server, even causing Mu Clan to suffer devastating losses, but Happy’s first reaction was not to take revenge and completely destroy Class One Hall as well as Towering Palace.

Even though Chivalry Sect and other sects had all stated that they were willing to provide help and if they were to work with Mu Clan, they could absolutely destroy Class One Hall as well as Towering Palace, the war will not end within a short period of time!

Besides, at that time, Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect will be involved in the swamp of war. In fact, the entire Chinese server will be dragged in a chaotic war.

Even though Happy wanted to take revenge and give the most brutal lesson to Towering Palace, Class One Hall, Dragon Sect, and other such organizations, the lesson he learned from his previous life caused him to repeatedly warn himself that he was not to do this!

There were plenty of foreign organizations who had their eyes on the Chinese server.

They were paying attention to Mu Clan and his reaction after he entered Yangzhou.

Once the four top-class sects in the Chinese world of martial artists were engaged in an all-out war, so much so that the flames of war extended to all of China, it will give the foreign organizations the perfect chance to enter their land.

At that time, the Chinese server will be in complete chaos!

And to tell the truth, Happy absolutely did not want that sort of thing happen.

Even if he had to tolerate this, he did not wish to use the most direct method to light up the fuse that will bring about the flames of war in the Chinese world of martial artists.

However, this time, since Towering Palace worked together with foreign organizations to create this storm, Happy will not easily spare them.

He believed that after the battle at Yangzhou City, Class One Hall will understand certain things, and Dream Clouds, Barren Murderer, as well as other people will not dare to leave Beijing so readily!

*****

The battlefield around Mu Clan’s branch in Yangzhou had been silent for a long time. The people from Towering Palace had all sat down around the branch. While they waited for the final offense to be launched, they circulated their qi to heal their injuries or to restore the qi they used.

Time passed.

Mu Clan began to mobilize their forces.

They looked as if they wanted to prepare for the final assault. A very prominent increase of members at the two directions where the walls had collapsed and which had led to their most devastating losses appeared.

The Towering Palace members quietly watched them, but they did not bother about it.

In the next attack, the two directions where the walls had collapsed will definitely suffer the most pressure, and it was perfectly normal for Mu Clan to draw members from the other two directions to strengthen the defenses in the two directions that were weaker.

“Hurry up and restore your qi.”

“Those people from Mu Clan are all tough cookies. They’re not easy to deal with.”

“Later on, let’s form a party.”

“Alright.”

“I wonder if there is still time to repair our equipment. There are a few cracks on my weapon.”

“…We won’t be spending a lot of time for the next attack.”

While they waited in silence, quite a number of people will occasionally whisper to each other.

Everyone was preparing for the final attack, which will happen very soon.

But the people from Towering Palace did not notice that when Mu Clan was continuously mobilizing their forces, their formation had changed slightly.

The people who served as archers just now had switched their weapons at the back. They put away their bows and arrows and hung small but exquisite hidden weapon pouches by their waists or small flying knives.

“Hmm?”

“Those people from Mu Clan sure are bold. They’re thinking of repairing the wall even now?”

Some people in the crowd scoffed while they stared at the forces approaching the wall.

Very soon, a few people had their expressions change slightly, and they noticed that the situation was not right.

There was not just a small group of people approaching the wall, but a large group was advancing toward it.

“That’s not right!” When Clear Music noticed this, Mu Clan’s forces had already quietly reached the position where Mu Clan’s walls were.

When the Towering Palace members outside the branch noticed that the situation was off and grabbed their weapons…

“Kill them!”

Mu Clan’s elites charged like tigers out of their fences. They quickly rushed to the enemies surrounding them from two sides, and they moved like tidal waves.

The people from Towering Palace had their expressions change, and they quickly got up.

But the distance of dozens of feet shrank to zero in the blink of an eye. The people right in front of Towering Palace’s group panicked, and they quickly retreated.

Boom!

With Silver Wolf, Little North, Feng Zhi, and a few other aces taking the lead, Mu Clan’s arrow formation charged into Towering Palace’s camp with a powerful force that can easily break through everything. All of them had fierce looks of their faces as they swung their weapons.
