Sword Among Us Chapter 1242

After the tournament organized by Lovely Land ended, the Chinese plains quickly mobilized their forces. Quite a number of large sects and were considerably strong sent one or two supreme-class elites to meet up with Chivalry Alliance's ten thousand men while they were on their way, and they left for West Region.

Lovely Land's people did not leave with them!

In fact, the world did not know where Lovely Land's twenty thousand people were. But the players who headed to West Region to watch the fun would more or less run into Lovely Land members racing down the road while they were on their way there.

No one knew just how many people Lovely Land sent.

And no one knew just what sort of power Lovely Land deployed.

In fact, some of the higher ups in Lovely Land only brought a group of their subordinates to West Region. They did not know the details because they were too much in a hurry.

The only people who knew the full picture were Happy and Ji Feng!

The one thousand five hundred supreme-class elites from Lovely Land was the data only privy to the higher-ups in Lovely Land.

This number was enough to fight against Evil Emperor's elite suicide squad!

But Happy currently did not want this group of people to gather together so that he would not reveal Lovely Land's greatest trump card.

Since he was worried about Green Lit Wooden Fish and Orochimaru, who were two unstable variables, Happy sent the four people who performed the most outstandingly during Lovely Land's tournament out ahead of time and asked them to search for another path so that they could head to West Region first to carry out their tasks.

The path was long, and they needed one day and one night in real time before they reached West Region.

Just as usual, Happy came out of the single-unit recuperation center in the hospital to get some air and to walk around.

The warm sun shone on the clean sheets, making the center look really clean and holy. The busy nurses also looked really cute.

When Xu Yao opened the door, she saw Happy with his eyes shut. His face was just as familiar and full of determination as ever. Gentle light shone on his face, making him look calm.

Xu Yao found herself to be in a slight daze.

Then, she sucked in a deep breath and walked forward.

“You're here?”

Happy knew who came over based on the elegant fragrance that came wafting into his nose. He sighed in relief before he opened his eyes and smiled. “How does it feel to be in the game again?”

“If it's that difficult for you to smile, don't. Did you run into a problem. The trip to West Region is very difficult this time, right? Should Wind Chimes and I go over to help?” Xu Yao could see the graveness and solemnity hidden behind Happy's calmness, and she exposed the facade Happy put up.

Happy smiled softly and did not speak. He shut his eyes again and enjoyed the warm sun shining on him.

After some time, he spoke slowly, and his tone was grave. “Evil Emperor has perfected his Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art. Based on the information Wandering Know-it-all managed to get, Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art is peerless in terms of power, and it's even stronger than Tendon Changing Classic. Unless I push Marrow Cleansing Classic to an even higher level, it will be difficult for me to be Evil Emperor's opponent.” He stopped talking for a moment before he continued, “But we must curb Evil Emperor's ambitions in this battle and deal a severe blow on Wild Wolves. It's only when we put a stop to the Wild Wolves in West Region that I'll be able to fulfill my goals of forming the Imperial Army!”

Xu Yao watched Happy quietly.

She knew that Happy had been planning a lot and had put himself in far too many life and death decisions for this. All of it was so that he could get rid of Class One Hall and Wild Wolves completely. The Imperial Army might have a tyrant such as Lovely Land supporting it, but they had to sacrifice their best forces for it. If this dragged out for too long, it would bring about immeasurable losses to Lovely Land.

Happy wanted to use this fight to completely get rid of Evil Emperor's aggressive edge and hold the Wild Wolves back. He also wanted to give the forces of power in the world a signal and a beacon of hope.

As long as they succeeded in this battle, all the forces of power in the world who were tyrannized by Wild Wolves could take advantage of the situation and climb back up to power. Otherwise, it would be impossible to completely get rid of and stop the Wild Wolves with just the Chinese plains and Lovely Land's strength.

When he thought of this, Xu Yao spoke again, “In any case, Wind Chimes and I are close to West Region. We can go over to help you.”

“I can consider Wind Chimes, but not you. You've just reached Inaction Realm, so it's not suitable for you to join the fight in West Region.” Happy rejected Xu Yao's suggestion without hesitation.

She glared at him, refusing to accept the rejection.

“Over the past few days, a Lovely Land member helped me with a quest. I've been leveling up really quickly, and I reached Inaction Realm. Besides, the level of my zither skills increases is based on the number of people I kill, so the speed in which I'm leveling up is several times that of a normal person. I'm currently much stronger than the normal person. Even Wind Chimes has said that the martial arts from Zither Sect is extraordinary, and soon, I will surpass her…” She stopped talking for a while, because Xu Yao seemed to have thought of something. “If Wind Chimes can go to the battlefield while she has Nine Yin Blocked Pulses, why should I be afraid? At most, I will just lose a few days' worth of progress. Besides, Zither Sect's martial arts focuses on protecting people, and Wind Chimes must have nothing wrong happen to her because of her Nine Yin Blocked Pulses. If I go, I can protect her!”

“Focuses on protecting people?”

Xu Yao's final sentence tempted Happy. He opened his eyes. “What do you mean?”

“Zither Sect's zither sounds can turn into zither forces that can protect the people we want to protect. We can control the zither forces at will within a circular area of 325 feet. If anyone wants to attack Wind Chimes, they will first have to break the lock protecting Wind Chimes. Then, they have to break her defense and my zither forces. In other words, if anyone wants to kill Wind Chimes, they will have to go through me. I am that lock!”

Happy was convinced.

“Alright!”

Even though he did not want Xu Yao to be in danger, this was an important matter. To increase Wind Chimes' safety due to her Nine Yin Blocked Pulses, he could allow Xu Yao to join this expedition.

“Once we go online, I'll send you a batch of Illusion Life and Death Pills and one drop of Fire Qilin Blood. The latter can increase twenty points of qi. Also, after you leave the valley, wear human skin masks with Wind Chimes immediately. Then, meet up with me. But you must remember, after you enter West Region, I will send a group of people to protect you, while you're in charge of protecting Wind Chimes.”

“Got it!”

After she got her wish granted, Xu Yao was in high spirits.

In a seven-star hotel's meeting in Shangjing were hundreds of elites who came from everywhere.

“From today onwards, this hotel will be your home. I need you to make maximum use of you.”

A man dressed in a suit gave his orders in a superior tone that brook no argument.

“What can we do in one month? Blood Robes, what are you and the hall master planning this time?” someone asked.

Even though it would not be bad for them to stay in such a lavish hotel for one month, when it came to doing something seriously, this would then turn into just a pretty cage.

“After the tournament today, Happy has started targeting Class One Hall again. Our members are finally able to catch their breath and come out to train, but now, all their training was in vain.” The person who spoke was Monk with Thick Eyebrows, who was in charge of everything in the Chinese plains.

He could be said to have suffered greatly over this period of time.

Ever since the Wild Wolves were chased out of the Chinese plains, if Class One Hall moved even the slightest bit slower, they would be imprisoned in the city. Every time they went out, they would die. The higher-ups were even major targets, and they did not have the slightest freedom.

The people at Blood Robes' side finally had some room to move, but the Chinese plains remained a graveyard for them, and the members trapped in there had lost their vigor. Hence, this time, even though they gathered in this lavish hotel, his tone was still filled with great resentment.

He frowned a little. Blood Robes cast a glance at Monk with Thick Eyebrows.

“Happy mobilized a large group of elites to head to West Region this time. He took away a lot of elites from Chivalry Alliance. The rear is not strong, and this is a rare chance for us to stage a comeback and take over the Chinese plains—”

“Take over the Chinese plains? With what army?”

Monk with Thick Eyebrows nearly started mocking him.

But the people around him just started snickering and putting on scornful looks.

Right now, Class One Hall only had tens of thousands of peo~ple gathered outside the plains, and this was their foundation. As time passed, there were less than two thousand members left in the Chinese plains.

With only this number of people, forget about taking over the Chinese plains. If they went out of town, they would be destroyed by the local sects in the cities, Lovely Land, and Wind Assault Tower…

“Don't worry. Once the fighting starts in West Region, Happy will definitely return defeated. At that time, the Wild Wolves will work with us to fight back! We can retrieve everything slowly.” Blood Robes' words caused many of the people in the room to be shocked.

But even more of them did not believe in his words.

The current Lovely Land had become so powerful that it was even stronger than Class One Hall in the past!

All those who had watched Lovely Land's tournament and saw Whirlwind Young Li as well as Green Lit Wooden Fish's strength could not even imagine just how Class One Hall could hope to push back into the Chinese plains while they were already struggling on their deathbed.

Monk with Thick Eyebrows was the first to refuse to believe it.

“Can Evil Emperor win?”

“Hundreds of Chinese plains supreme-class players are working with Lovely Land and Chivalry Alliance. With that number, they might have nearly one thousand supreme-class elites with them! Can the Wild Wolves win against Lovely Land complete?”

“That's right, not only will it be impossible for us to win at West Region, right now, Wind Assault Tower is guarding the Chinese plains, and they're helped by Lovely Land's Vice Sect Masters Wandering Know-it-all and Ji Feng. Silver Wolf and the others are helping them as well. What can you do even if you come back?”

The people in the room spoke one after another, and only a few of them were confident in the success of the operation.

As he listened, Blood Robes' expression grew darker.

Even though he wanted to tell the truth to the people, this matter was serious. If their plans were revealed, all that Dream Clouds planned would go into the drain.

Right now, Dream Clouds had staked everything Class One Hall had on this counterattack and on Evil Emperor as well as the Wild Wolves.

If they lost this time, Class One Hall would lose completely, and they would fade away in the rivers of time.

Blood Robes did not want this to happen no matter what!

When he saw that the group in front of him were still low in morale and were dejected, he spoke sternly, “You must know that all that you have right now is snatched back by Hall Master Dream Clouds and Class One Hall's brand. Do you want to take back all that belonged to you? Make the decision yourself!”

The people's gazes gradually grew intense. When he saw this, Blood Robes gave them hope.

“Our success rate this time is much greater than what you expect, but we can't tell you now. When we command our army to return to the Chinese plains, you will know about it!”

“Is this what the hall master told you a long time ago?” Monk with Thick Eyebrows was stunned for a moment before he frowned and asked Blood Robes this question.

Blood Robes nodded seriously. “That's right!”

Blood Robes knew that Monk with Thick Eyebrows was a little tempted now, so he struck while the iron was hot by saying, “We've been planning for a long time to be able to return to the Chinese plains, and we paid quite the huge price for it. In a few days, we will fight with no way of escaping anymore, and we will bear witness to the fruits of our harvest! If we don't succeed, then we will all perish!”

Blood Robes spoke with grim determination, and he emanated a tragic aura. It instantly affected all the people in the room!
