Chapter 498: One Emperor’s Secret?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bad news travels faster than good news.

The deaths of Vice Hall Master Barren Murderer and one thousand Class One Hall members while they tried to kill Happy in their nest, along with the news of Happy leaving with Silver Wolf and Wind Chimes swiftly spread through World of Martial Arts.

Class One Hall’s reputation fell.

What left people even more stunned, however, was that more than one thousand people of Class One Hall died at a ferry that was less than thirty miles south of Beijing.

Happy had not attacked even once in that fight.

Wind Chimes relied on her demonic zither whose sounds spread through the ferry! The agitated zither sounds came at the people with the force of an avalanche. Sound blades and water blades met up together to become a God of Death that harvested lives. Wind Chimes completely controlled the entire battlefield.

As for Silver Wolf, he created the legend of Red Flame Palm on the water. The people from Class One Hall got to find out what it meant to be surrounded by ice and fire at the same time.

After that battle, the trio did not feel any sense of urgency and leisurely went into the closest city. There, at the speed of lightning, they destroyed a Class One Hall branch. They even left behind a letter.

[If you bother us again, we’ll destroy another one of your branches!]

It was a pity for Class One Hall. They had attacked for the sake of their reputation, but not only did they fail in their attack, their whole foundation was shaken.

Countless people who played World of Martial Arts talked about it on the forums of the official websites!

When Happy, Silver Wolf, and Wind Chimes worked together, who could possibly fight against them? Wind Chimes could sweep through the entire battlefield with her demonic zither, while Silver Wolf and Happy were top-class players with great skills.

Silver Wolf was incredibly great at fighting, and his Red Flame Palm had the amazing function of evaporating the enemy’s qi, while Happy was a symbol of the top-class fighters in World of Martial Arts. Regardless of whether Class One Hall wanted to mobilize all their forces to kill them or to send their elites for revenge, it was impossible for them to succeed.

If they really made the three angry, the trio would attack everything along the way, and the forces of power that Class One Hall had set up to the north of Changjiang as well as the territory they took over there might experience a very devastating purge.

Of course, that was just rumors among the players.

*****

After the trio left Beijing, they headed south. Even though they were relaxed, they did not travel at a leisurely pace, as if they were on a holiday.

Wherever the trio went on their horses, they attracted a lot of gazes from other players.

Happy was still dressed in normal robes and had a Bamboo Hat over his head, which was the typical getup for a martial artist. Silver Wolf did not change his silver mask covering his face, and he looked as cold as ever.

Wind Chimes had her demonic zither placed horizontally on the back of her horse. She looked as if she was prepared to attack her enemies at any moment. Her eagerness was not hidden at all.

“I’ve played this game for so long, but today is the most I’ve enjoyed myself! It was so exciting!” Wind Chimes’ excitement had still not vanished. She talked nonstop on her horse. “I heard that no one has dared to kill people in Beijing before. When they did so, they were captured by patrolling city guards and brought to justice. I didn’t expect that we’d be alright even after we killed so many people. We actually managed to escape!”

“Those people were not strong enough. You should be careful in the future when you walk in cities,” Happy explained carefully.

If anyone said that another would need to be careful in cities, they would definitely be criticized, but when those words came from Happy’s mouth, it sounded much more convincing. Wind Chimes had an expression that said she believed him and Silver Wolf also nodded quietly.

“By the way, I believe that Dream Clouds should have sensed our determination after we destroyed a Class One Hall branch as a warning. She should not take the risk to send anyone to attack us now.”

Silver Wolf might have been talking to Happy, but he did cast a sidelong glance at Wind Chimes with worry. “Wind Chimes, since we have nothing else to do right now, it’s best that you put away your zither and casket. They’re too eye-catching.”

“But what if the people from Class One Hall find us? Those who don’t know about it might actually think that we’re cowards,” Wind Chimes answered boldly.

She was an honest person, and she did not hide her desire for the people from Class One Hall to chase her so that she could fight to her heart’s content again.

Happy and Silver Wolf smiled wanly at each other, feeling a little resigned.

‘This girl might seem weak, but there’s a violent streak hidden in her that doesn’t lose to a man’s. It’s no wonder then that she inherited Six-fingered Demonic Zither’s legacy. She’s basically a mini witch. Oh well.’

The two men did not have the energy to persuade Wind Chimes. It was just as she said. When they moved together, Class One Hall did not have the ability to successfully attack them, unless Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, and Zhou Yu came themselves, were able to gather up all the people from Class One Hall on a short notice, and were prepared to sacrifice two thousand or more people, including Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, and Zhou Yu themselves.

Happy believed that Dream Clouds would not stake everything to do something so crazy that will reward her with so little.

Happy was unlike the people from Chivalry Sect. There were a few sacred medicines in the main storage within Mu Clan, and if they really decided to fight to the death, not only would Class One Hall not be able to kill him, they would also bring about their own end.

When Wind Chimes saw that the duo kept silent, she could not help but search for a topic. “By the way, Big Brother Happy, Big Brother Silver Wolf, if we form a party in the future, do you think that we’ll be invincible?”

“You stupid girl, stop putting yourself on a pedestal. Happy is already invincible even if he’s not with us.”

Silver Wolf was very familiar with Wind Chimes. He knew that she was a lively girl who was not petty, and he was not worried that she would be affected by his words.

And just as he expected, Wind Chimes thought about it for a moment before she nodded.

“That’s right. Big Brother Happy still hasn’t lost once. Even those in Inaction Realm can’t do anything to you. You’ve long since become invincible.”

When Happy heard her words, he could not help but think a certain back belonging to a certain person who gave him a lot of pressure. When he remembered his promise to that person, he was unable to control himself but feel solemn.

“Invincible, heh…” Happy scoffed in a self-deprecating manner before he slowly closed his eyes. “There are still plenty of elites in the world.”

Silver Wolf instantly noticed that Happy’s mood had changed. He frowned slightly and soon came to a realization.

“I wonder if even the three of us would be able to defeat One Emperor…”

When Happy said those words, Silver Wolf and Wind Chimes tugged the reins of their horses at the same time. Shock as well as puzzlement appeared on their faces.

Silver Wolf reacted very quickly, and his tone instantly became grave. “You met One Emperor?”

Wind Chimes’ eyes went wide until they looked like saucers. They spoke of her inability to believe what she had heard.

She thought Happy was the strongest person in the game, and there was no one else who could stand up to him. Her impression had been further strengthened after the battle in Beijing, because she had personally witnessed Happy charging into Ruyang Mansion and saving Zhou Zhiruo from four great martial artists to escape Beijing.

She, thus, did not expect that Happy would suddenly give her a piece of information that would shock her so much while she was still full of excitement from the previous battle.

“Silver Wolf, do you still remember saying that people who have fighting skills in real life will have a great advantage in the game compared to normal people like me?”

When Silver Wolf noticed the grave and serious expression on Happy’s face, he slowly and somberly nodded. “That’s right, aside from those who know some close-quarters combat skills like us who came from special forces, there are also those who are martial artists in real life. They’re the same as us.

“There are also top-class mercenaries who wander about the land. They know about the vital parts of a human body much more clearly than a normal person, and their fighting instincts are also stronger.

“I don’t know which category One Emperor belongs to, but if you think that you and I can’t win against him even after we work together, then he should be in the second category!”

Silver Wolf sighed in a serious manner. “This sort of person doesn’t lack money, and it fits One Emperor’s situation. It explains why he wouldn’t join any organization or get close to anyone during the start of the game.”
