Chapter 854: Meeting Shi Feixuan Once More

Class One Hall’s one hundred thousand elites were all incredibly strong. Forget about the fact that Happy did not dare fight against them head on, even if the three thousand Mongolian cavaliers led by Zhao Deyan fought against them, if they were to really fight against them, Zhao Deyan might end up with the tragic fate of his army being completely destroyed while he fled.

But the beauty of Happy’s plan was that he had become the Mongolian cavaliers and Zhao Deyan’s protective shield. He created an easy place for Zhao Deyan and his Mongolian cavaliers to charge about the plains as much as they wanted.

Those three thousand Mongolian cavaliers and Zhao Deyan also created the best protective shield for Happy. With such a powerful battalion killing the enemies around him and protecting him, Class One Hall cannot mobilize their forces at ease and fight against him at full power.

They attacked Class One Hall from both sides and restrained their movements while also severely limiting their attacks. They also preserved this sort of connection between them to the point that Class One Hall was beaten to the point that they were badly battered. They could not defeat any side no matter how many times they attacked.

What was even more ingenious about this was that under the protection of the darkness, Happy and the Mongolian cavaliers could bring Class One Hall even more terror because of the advantage of their strength.

Since their goal of killing the twenty thousand people from the four sects who logged off restrained their movements, Class One Hall cannot spread out just yet and must be gathered together. They continued to withstand the continuous wave of cavalier charges and Happy’s harassment.

More than thirty hours passed.

Now, there were more than thirty thousand corpses belonging to Class One Hall strewn all over the plains.

In the end, as a Class One Hall elite named Wu Xiong died, Class One Hall finally chose to retreat fully. They split into three groups and retreated from the plains in three directions.

The remaining sixty thousand or so people resolutely gave up on the camp where the four sects logged off.

Those sixty thousand or so people were like a plate of scattered sand, and they were scattered over the black plains.

Boom! Boom!

Galloping sounds chased after them and pursued the retreating Class One Hall members for some time. The chase lasted for more than fifteen miles, and a continuous stream of corpses were left behind in the Mongolian cavaliers’ wake.

The Mongolian cavaliers had an easy time killing those Class One Hall members

As for Happy, he only cared about luring those Mongolian cavaliers to the most populated areas and rammed over Class One Hall like a bulldozer.

When they were near the Chinese camp and the thundering hooves captured countless Chinese elites’ attention, torches were lit, and cavaliers charged at them.

The Chinese camp also began to mobilize their forces vigilantly.

Zhao Deyan finally called off the Mongolian cavaliers’ charge. Then, before the Chinese army could mobilize their forces to chase after them, they left in a roar with dust rolling behind him.

However, the sight of Class One Hall fleeing in a pathetic manner was already seen by countless people. Tens of thousands of people rushed back to the camp hastily, as if there was fire burning behind them. The momentum was great, and some of the observant and ambitious went about asking for detailed information, and they knew that this time, Class One Hall suffered quite a huge loss.

“It’s over now.”

“So many people were sent running back. This time, Class One Hall can be considered to have completely lost their dignity.”

“You don’t say. I heard from the people in Aru City that the Class One Hall members who came out of Guanlin Temple nearly filled the city to the brim. The City and the area outside it are all Class One Hall members, and there’s not even a place to stand there now.”

“Whew…”

“Happy sure is fierce with his attacks this time.”

“Not only did he occupy the top twenty spots on War Achievement Points Rank with his own people, he even drained Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, Evil Robes, and the others’ points. Tonight, he completely destroyed Class One Hall’s momentum, and Class One Hall will definitely hate Mu Clan to the core. The next time they take revenge, it will be even fiercer than this time. Just you wait.”

“What else can they do? The plains is considered a part of the event region. Even if people die here, they will not be punished.

“Class One Hall only lost some of their dignity and points, and there’s absolutely no substantial effect if they died.

“No matter what, Class One Hall is the lord of the north, and they always keep true to their word. This time, if they don’t regain some of their dignity, they won’t be able to act in such a flashy manner next time.”

“Hehe, it’ll be better the more they fight. It’ll be even better if all of them die. At that time, all the points will be ours.”

*****

“Whoa!”

Happy tightened his grip around the reins in the dark plains three miles away from the Chinese camp, and he did not continue chasing after Class One Hall.

Zhao Deyan had already left with his people. They returned to the Mongolian camp. Even if he continued chasing after Class One Hall, he will not be able to kill a lot of people. To Class One Hall, that just meant Happy sending a few people back to Aru City for free.

He stopped, and Happy quickly wrote as well as sent two letters.

Very soon, he received a reply for the letters he sent.

Flap flap flap!

The snow-white messenger pigeons landed on his shoulder and palm.

Happy first brought down the letter from the messenger pigeon on his palm, opened it, and read it.

Written on it was: All Class One Hall members have returned to the camp.

It was information from All-powerful Medicinal Stone.

[We’ve sent the information to the rest. Our friends are logging in one after another. They’re prepared to shift camps and leave the path where Zhao Deyan will take to return to the Mongolian camp.]

This was Silver Wolf’s letter.

As if they knew that the battle had ended, the third and fourth letter came one after another.

The third was from Lin Xiao: You worked hard, brother! But you actually didn’t ask me to help you in something so great?! You really lack team spirit!

Happy grinned and unfolded the last letter.

It was from Thunderous Battle: Happy, the cavaliers we gathered are completely dead. Even if we continue staying at the plains, it won’t be appropriate for us. What do you think our next move should be?

Happy wrote a reply without hesitation. [Have everyone return to the Chinese camp.

[Right now, Class One Hall has completely lost their morale. The Chinese camp has just been alerted by Zhao Deyan. They mobilized a large group of cavaliers to go out and patrol the area. It’s just perfect. We can return to the camp using the chance, and we can help our friends get military titles as well as cavaliers with points.]

Thunderous Battle’s spirits were lifted.

[Alright!]

Thunderous Battle and Happy both knew that once they managed to successfully return to the camp, at least more than one thousand people among the twenty thousand people will be able to get the lowest ranking military title—5-man commander.

The military rank might be low, but it was still a legitimate military rank, and they can also be considered low-ranking government officials. Even though they were not classified in the government official system, they were protected by all Chinese warriors and the military system.

With this group of people around, if they can get a few more cavaliers, then even if Class One Hall wanted to cause them trouble on the plains, that meant that they were making enemies out of the Chinese warriors.

Class One Hall will then completely lose their right to talk on the plains.

Right when Happy composed himself and waited for everyone to return to the camp, he heard a horse galloping toward him from the distance.

“Young Swordsman Happy.”

The airy, pleasant, and familiar voice from the horse made him stunned on the spot.

“Miss Shi.”

Happy watched Shi Feixuan tighten the reins in front of him while he looked dumbfounded and shocked.

Shi Feixuan had personally come up to meet him from the camp. Could it be a plot-relevant quest? Was it because of his act of activating the quests related to Zhao Deyan, or was it his successful act in harrassing the Mongolian flank during the day?

In an instant, Happy had a multitude of thoughts race through his mind.

Shi Feixuan naturally did not know about this. The white Dragon Horse under her slowly slowed down and arrived beside his Hoof Shadow.

“Young Swordsman Happy, did you come over from the enemy camp?” Shi Feixuan’s face was covered by a snow-white veil, and her expression cannot be seen clearly. But there was a hint of urgency and anxiety in her airy voice.

Happy was stunned. It was only then that he noticed that she was frowning tightly, as if she had something very urgent to do.

He immediately quelled the curiosity in his heart and nodded without batting an eyelid.

“Indeed. Miss Shi, where do you intend to go by coming out of the camp so late at night?”

“Zhao Deyan’s troops came over just now. The Prince of Qin has already arranged dozens of reconnoiterers around the camp, but none of them were able to give us a sign beforehand. The marshall is very displeased, and the Prince of Qin guesses that these reconnoiterers might have already been killed by the evil cult elites.

“I might be offending you by asking this, but Young Swordsman Happy, will you be willing to come and scout the area with me?”
