Chapter 1119: Song House, Thunderous Battle

Aside from the news of Lovely Land and Class One Hall not fading away yet in World of Martial Arts and still capturing countless people’s attention in the game, there were also a few major pieces of news during this period of time.

Among them was that the plot for Twin of Brothers seemed to have progressed.

The evil cult which had disappeared for a period of time reappeared in the world of martial artists. Not only did the disciples from Yin Weed Faction and Sky Demon Sect appear frequently in the game, even Empress Yin Zhu Yuyan, who had been sent into retreat, reappeared in the world of wanderers to kill multiple people. Plenty of righteous martial artists were injured badly or killed.

Due to the evil cult rising from the ashes once more, those in the righteous sects began to receive quests from their masters, and they were to search for traces of evil cult disciples extensively in the world of martial artists. Some were even sent to search for Empress Yin and Evil King!

At that moment, a piece of information was accidentally spread of Beijing, and it lured groups of heroes’ attention to Song House.

It was the place where Heavenly Saber Song Que guarded, and he was a man to whom even the evil cult was fearful of in the past!

This time, evil cult disciples had begun appearing frequently around Song House. In fact, some people even said that the two matchless martial artists of the evil cult, Evil King and Empress Yin had visited Song House together to exact revenge on Song House chasing down the evil cult disciples in the past. Evil King was also there to settle the grudge between him and Song House.

And once Song House received the news, they were busy strengthening their defense. In fact, even Xu Zhiling, Kuo Zhong, and the other elites rushed over to help Song House.

For a period of time, Song House turned into a place where those who were skilled could obtain chances for success, and it was also a place that brewed trouble.

*****

Song House was built on a huge island, and there were more than ten thousand soldiers contained behind its sturdy walls!

The defense on the island was tight. There were sentries practically everywhere, and all of the disciples of Song House were elites. With burning gazes, they strengthened the defense of the island until it was like a fortified wall.

When groups of virtual martial artists who came from everywhere arrived at the island, they looked at the raging river that they traversed to the place, and they quickly noticed the grave and tense atmosphere on the island.

There were more than one thousand archers hidden in the forest by the shore, and the tip of their arrows reflected cold glares. Wherever the players went, that place would be filled with a murderous presence.

When the group got down from the ship that reached the port, their expressions were incredibly pale and sour. In fact, they showed faint hints of anxiety and nervousness.

“Let’s go!”

“Hurry up! We’re going into the palace!”

Once the group got down, they started rushing nonstop to the city on the island, as if there was someone chasing after them.

This scene attracted the attention of the players who were stationed near the port.

There was a man dressed in an earthy yellow archer gear in the group. He stretched out his arm and blocked the last man, who also appeared to be very young. “Brother.”

“Hmm?”

That person was in a hurry to leave. Hence, when he was blocked, there was no way his expression would be pleasant. He instantly glared at the man in front of him with a wary expression.

“My apologies. Brother, I need to ask you a question. Why are you in a hurry? Did you run into the people from the evil cult?” The man who spoke was rather polite in his attitude and his tone. The young man who was blocked cast a glance at the dozen or so men and women who showed extraordinary qi behind him, and he could swallow the indignant words that were at the tip of his tongue.

He answered reluctantly in a muffled voice, “The ship from the evil cult is already moving over here, and soon, it will reach Song House.”

“It’s here?”

The party members of the man in yellow robes cast each other a glance. They could see the fervor and excitement in each other’s eyes. Then, the yellow-robed man smiled faintly and continued to ask that young man. “If that’s all, it should not have been enough for you to flee so hastily, right?”

He sounded as if he was trying to provoke the young man to speak more.

And just as he expected, when the yellow-robed man instigated him, the young man immediately had all forms of rationality thrown out the window, and he glared at the yellow-robed man. “What bullcrap! Do you know which demon we ran into just now?!

“Empress Yin! An elite at the peak of Myth Realm!

“Aside from Empress Yin, there’s also Wan Wan, and a few other elites at Myth Realm. Did you actually think that we were willing to run? If you have the ability to do so, then stay here and don’t run!”

Because of the provocation from the yellow-robed man, the young man revealed all that he saw while he was on the way to this place. When he saw the expressions on the yellow-robed man and his party change, he snorted, pleased with himself, and he was ready to slap the yellow-robed man’s hand away from him to leave.

When the yellow-robed man and his party received this news, they had their emotions rage in their hearts, but they did not immediately have all their questions answered.

“Brother, don’t be angry. We’re just asking you for a bit of your time. You mentioned that you ran into Empress Yin, Wan Wan, and a group of elites from the evil cult. How could they have spared your ship?”

The yellow-robed man cast a glance at the ship the group took to come over here, and they were just in time to see a group of people walk out of the deck of the ship.

Three men and two women stood out like sore thumbs when they stood among the group of Song House disciples.

The Song House disciples who were in charge of receiving them at the port wrapped their fists in their palms and saluted them.

“Young master, Lady Yuzhi.”

“These people are my honored guests, Young Marshal Kuo, Young Master Xu, and Lady Shi!” Song Shidao introduced the two men and woman with the grand demeanor and presence beside him to the people who came to welcome him at the port. “If it were not for these three people lending their great strength to me, Yuzhi and I might have already ended up as hostages in the hands of the evil cult.”

“Greetings, Young Marshall Kuo, Young Master Xu, Lady Shi.” The group at the port were shocked, and they became even more polite than before.

“Young master, are you alright?”

“My Lady…”

“We’re fine. It’s all thanks to these two men that we have been able to escape from danger. Of course, there is also Lady Shi.” Song Yuzhi, who had a curvaceous body, was already incredibly eye-catching. When she spoke, she attracted everyone’s attention.

The group of players were also a little enraptured by Song Yuzhi’s charm, but since Kuo Zhong was around, none of them dared to lose their composure even in the slightest.

“Brother Song, Lady Yuzhi, the news Qingxuan brought is very important. It concerns the survival of Song House. We should save certain topics until we meet the master of the house.”

“That’s right. We should not delay matters.”

Song Shidao’s expression became stern. He quickly ordered the Song House disciples to lead the way.

The group left the port under the gazes of the yellow-robed man and his party, and they headed to Song House’s main camp.

“Do you understand now?”

The young man flung off the yellow-robed man’s hand and released an enraged snort before he went to catch up to the group who had already left into the distance.

The yellow-robed man and his party looked away, and they had grave looks appear in their eyes.

“Kuo Zhong and Xu Zhiling have already reached the middle stage of Myth Realm, and they can somewhat stop Empress Yin and Wan Wan if they work together, with the help from the warship from Song House and the elites from Song House, it’s not impossible for them to flee from the evil cult.”

“Looks like the news is true!”

“Yeah.”

The group nodded.

“Wandering Know-it-all didn’t lie to us, but this event seemed to spiral out of control. Empress Yin brought a large group of evil cult elites to invade Song House, and Evil King is definitely behind this as well. The quest this time is even more dangerous than we predicted it to be!”

Quite a number of people in the party said uneasily. Then, they looked at the yellow-robed man.

“Big Brother Thunder, Song House only has Heavenly Saber Song Que, and he’s at the peak of Myth Realm, but you heard Xu Zhiling just now. He said that the battle this time concerns Song House’s life and death, and it’s highly possible that the news Wandering Know-it-all told us is true.”

Silence fell among them. Panic flashed in the group’s eyes.

Thunderous Battle was the one who told them about the news from Wandering Know-it-all. He said that Evil King had already become One with the World, and his strength was far above those who were at Myth Realm.

This was the first official appearance of a martial artist who had become One with the World!

When the yellow-robed man heard his party’s fearful words, he knew that they were afraid. He focused his gaze and gnashed his teeth before he said, “Well, duh. Would Wandering Know-it-all lie to us? It’s precisely because Song House is in danger that we’re here!”

The yellow-robed man was Thunderous Battle.

But he was different from the Thunderous Battle from the world three years ago. In this world, Thunderous Battle was still not the second clan master of Mu Clan, and neither was he a man who was practically in charge of all matters in Mu Clan and had also kickstarted Mu Clan into operation. Right now, Thunderous Battle was still a normal Inaction Realm elite who was fighting to become stronger.

“But…”

When they faced Thunderous Battle’s determined expression, the party looked troubled.

“No buts!” Thunderous Battle spoke firmly, and his eyes were slightly bloodshot. “Think of Happy’s current achievements, and think about how he managed to get to his level.”

The group instantly lost their voices. Only Thunderous Battle’s impassioned voice rang at the port. “He lied in bed for one and a half years, and when he came back, he had to begin at Life and Death Realm with nothing in his hands. He constantly lived in danger, and Five Venoms, Blood Alliance, Class One Hall, as well as Wild Wolves were all giants that could crush him at any moment, but he still managed to slaughter all of them and reach his current status!”

The party said nothing.

“We have been too conversation and level-headed in the past, and we wasted most of our time on training in peace and doing quests that were not difficult.” Thunderous Battle clenched his right fist and looked at the party in front of him. “But from now it, I will no longer conduct useless training, and I will not live as I did in the past. Instead of being unable to do anything worthwhile when Wild Wolves arrive, I would rather die spectacularly in the hands of matchless martial artists!”

The party seemed to have sensed Thunderous Battle’s determination and imposing mannerisms. Their expressions changed slightly, and they looked as if they had been affected.

“I’ve thought about this. This time, no matter what, we must join the quest. Even if I have to die during the course, I am still going to take the risk and be hot-blooded for once!”

“Big Brother Thunder, but if you die, your income will be affected. What are you going to do then?”

“Nonsense!” Thunderous Battle glared at him. “Do you think I’m you? I didn’t spend all the money I earned over the years on women. I have savings, and if I live frugally, it’ll be enough for me to last for a few years. Besides, it’s not as if I don’t have a job in the real world…”

He stopped talking for a while before Thunderous Battle spoke in a sentimental tone. “As for you lot, if you’re willing to put your lives at risk with me, then let’s continue. If you’re wary, you can watch by the side, and if danger comes, you can log off and leave.”

“Big Brother Thunder, what are you saying? You’re willing to take the risk even when you have a wife and children. Why should we be afraid if that’s the case? In truth, I really want to see just how powerful an elite who is One with the World is.”

The party shouted, and all of them chose to stay.

*****

Just when Thunderous Battle and his party chose to stay, suddenly, something changed among the Song House disciples at the port. One of them lowered the telescope in his hands and shouted as he ran hastily.

“They’re here! The evil cult’s ship is here!

“Hurry up and notify the house master!”
