Sword Among Us Chapter 487

Within the sect prison of Class One Hall's headquarters was Dream Clouds . When she heard the news that Blood Robes brought back, she sank into deep shock .

Even though Blood Robes had died once, when he returned to Beijing, he immediately used Illusion Life and Death Pill to return to his peak, which was why he did not fall behind . He still occupied the fourth spot on Dragon Rank, and no one ever managed to threaten his position .

If Blood Robes said to have been defeated by someone during a one on one fight, Dream Clouds would rather believe that the person he fought was Happy or One Emperor .

But Blood Robes' description was incredibly shocking!

The person he fought did not use a single weapon from the start to the end .

He did not bring out any weapons and did not equip any armor, yet he still defeated Blood Robes in around ten moves . Blood Robes chose to be honest and said that the protective system of Heaven Fragrant Tower was the only reason why he had been able to remain alive .

Dream Clouds sucked in a sharp breath with a profound look in her eyes . “Can you learn of his identity?”

Blood Robes said nothing for a time . He then shook his head while standing behind Dream Clouds . “At that time, I went to the meeting alone, and I hurried back right after . But based on my understanding of Langye, he'll definitely investigate it .

“However, the possibility of him learning the man's identity is very low . After all, it's far too easy for a player to hide their face in the game . ”

“There are very few people who can enter the best room in Heaven Fragrant Tower . There are only a few of them in all of Beijing . ” Dream Clouds' tone was calm, and she gave her orders earnestly . “Immediately investigate those people's current location while the two men are still in the restaurant . ”

“Alright . ”

Blood Robes' eyes lit up . It was only at that moment that he noticed that he had overlooked an important detail . He could get to know the unknown man's identity through the process of elimination . The people who could get into the best room in Heaven Fragrant Tower had to be martial artists who had very high prestige in the game or were people with noble statuses .

Only the people who were among the top ten in the various ranks of World of Martial Arts Secret Log could get inside . It might mean that they had to look through nearly one hundred people, it was still a chance to find out what they wanted to know .

Once they got rid of some of the people who were not suspects or had no possibility of getting in based on how strict were the requirements for Little Moon Immortal and Delicate Servant to serve people, then filtered out some of the people who were not very rich, they could get to know just who was the famous person who had the unfathomable Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm .

Just as Dream Clouds said, in the end, there were only seven people left .

Blood Robes researched their location ten minutes ago and obtained a very strange result .

Among the seven, there were six who were verified to not be in Heaven Fragrant Tower . The seventh could not be located since the diviners could not find him . It seemed like he was not among the five elements .

“Are you saying that the person in the best room might be Wandering Know-it-all?”

When Dream Clouds heard the result, a few more wrinkles appeared between her eyebrows . Wandering Know-it-all's status in the game was incredibly unique, in fact, it could be said that he was a rather otherworldly presence . Even though he was not strong, his World of Martial Arts Secret Log was something that every martial artist had, and its popularity rate was at 100% .

Even though the dividend he obtained was rather low, he was still a true billionaire . The log was of good quality, but cheap, and it sold well even in other countries .

Wandering Know-it-all also set up a novel business—he would hide a person's tracks, for a price . He provided this service for ten million taels of silver, and each purchase lasted for forty-eight hours!

He could also hide the might of a divine weapon so that it would not appear on Divine Weapon Rank . This cost ten million taels of silver as well!

His services were incredibly expensive, but their target was not the general population . Instead, his market was the small number of players at the top of the pyramid in World of Martial Arts . They were the handful of martial artists who had the ability to pay his prices .

This business caused Wandering Know-it-all's status in the sect leaders' hearts to become even more of an otherworldly presence in the game, and no one dared to offend him, and that included Dream Clouds, even if she knew that Wandering Know-it-all had conducted business with Happy before .

It came down to the fact that she did not know whether she would have a need to buy Wandering Know-it-all's services in the future, because as of then, he was the only one with the ability to conduct such a business .

Hence, when she learned that the person in the best room in Heaven Fragrant Tower was Wandering Know-it-all, it became clear that the person whom he would personally receive would definitely be someone with a high status .

“When did someone so powerful appear in Beggar's Sect?”

“I don't know . ” Blood Robes shook his head regretfully . “Wandering Know-it-all should know a lot of information that we do not . Why don't we form a connection with him soon and see whether we can draw him to our side?”

“Draw him to our side?” Dream Clouds frowned slightly . “And what can we use to draw him over? Class One Hall doesn't have anything that will attract his attention . He is a diviner, and he has Universe Secrets Inkstone .

“His ambitions aren't in martial arts, but in business, and he conducts it all over the world . Do you think that he will give up on his business, which earns him billions of taels of silver with every update of the log, for the measly salary we offer in Class One Hall? ”

Blood Robes was instantly rendered speechless .

'She's right . Someone as smart as Wandering Know-it-all will definitely not place a mark on himself by telling people that he was now a part of another group!'

Dream Clouds had a troubled and lost look in her eyes as she continued sighing with a myriad of emotions . “Wandering Know-it-all is someone like One Emperor . Both of them are amazing people who are like monsters .

“One of them is after supreme wealth and influence, while the other is after the peak of martial arts, and both of those are things we cannot offer . ” She paused for a moment before her tone changed . “But some day, I will catch up to One Emperor,” she said with a slightly regretful voice .

As she spoke, she flicked her wrist, and a ball of fire shot out wildly . It quickly took the form of a fierce beast on Dream Clouds' arm . It surrounded her arm and burned fiercely .

“Should we continue to follow up with the matter of Wandering Know-it-all?”

Dream Clouds shook her head . “Forget it, let him be . It's very easy for Wandering Know-it-all to learn of what we're doing . We shouldn't offend this monster just to learn of who became the one to learn Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm . We'd just end up making a fool of ourselves . ”

She had just received news that someone had learned Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, which meant that Wandering Know-it-all had taken action to hide that fact .

“Alright . ” Even though Blood Robes was a little reluctant to admit his loss, he had been in Beijing for a long time, and he knew just how influential was Wandering Know-it-all . “I'll notify Langye and have him withdraw his men in case Wandering Know-it-all thinks I'm the one who ordered it . ”

Wandering Know-it-all had connections with top class players in Beijing . If he could come into contact with Happy and the successor of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, who were both people whose abilities were above the rest, he was certainly someone who should not be offended .

While Class One Hall and Sky Penetrating Tower ceased all activity to investigate the matter in Heaven Fragrant Tower, Wandering Know-it-all told Happy every detail about Prince Ruyang staying temporarily at the royal mansion .

That place was big, so even though its defense was tight, there were still chances for them to sneak in!

Xuanming Elders had abilities that stood above others . One of them guarded the inner court of the royal mansion, while the other the dungeon underground .

Divine Arrow Eight Heroes were stationed in the four wings of the royal mansion, but the three servants of the royal mansion—A'da, A'er, and A'san—were not in the royal mansion .

However, there were still around a dozen Moksha Realm fighters and hundreds of Life and Death Realm Yuan Dynasty guards . They were all elites in the army and had extraordinary abilities .

If the slightest mistake was made in the rescue mission, not only would the rescuers be unable to save their people, they might even die in the royal mansion . After all, it was directly under the emperor's governance . Once they alerted the city guards of their presence, they would bring a group of peerless fighters from the palace onto themselves, and even if all rescuers were as strong as Happy, they would still all die .

That was something Happy knew better than anyone else .

But what he did not expect was that during this important period of time in Ruyang Mansion, an unknown and unexpected factor had appeared, and it nearly threw their plans into chaos .
