Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 1251

Chapter 1251: Lots of Soldiers Gather

He was held back by Sword Sect for half a day, and now, Happy no longer had time to continue to talk. That morning itself, the group immediately left and rode on the government-made road headed west.

The group rode forward swiftly.

Happy led the team. Behind him were Wind Chimes, Xu Yao, Howling Moon, and more than forty other supreme-grade elites. They had an incredibly grand lineup.

During that period of time, Howling Moon and the others asked for a lot of advice from their sect master, and they learned of a way to train quickly from Happy, along with an effective shortcut to bring out their potential.

The group was highly rewarded.

Very soon, Howling Moon and the others had their resentment for waiting for such a long time gone.

But as time passed, the group slowly discovered something.

They were on the same government-made road, yet in just a short moment, Happy’s Hoof Shadow had already galloped far ahead of them.

If it were not for the fact that he had intentionally lowered the horse’s speed, Happy would have soon disappeared from their sight.

Of course, at the same time they learned things from Happy, quite a number of them noticed this problem. Yet as the topics and their curiosity of where Happy went gradually decreased, a lot more of them noticed this distance between them.

They were also puzzled about several other aspects.

As they spoke, Happy’s tone stirred up many people’s emotions. Sometimes, when he talked about the Wild Wolves, his eyes would shine, and he gave off a domineering air. The air around him would then seem to be affected, and he would give off a presence that caused them to shudder.

On their way, they did not run into any stupid bandits trying to rob them. With just one swing of his hand, Happy could send the people coming to block them back into their forest or down the mountain path. He did so in a smooth manner.

The normal bandits were nothing, but an evil, Myth Realm monk who had been wandering for years was also sent Happy flying. His pathetic sight caused Howling Moon and the rest to look at each other at a loss, and they were stunned for a long time.

“Don’t you think that the boss is a little different?”

“Just a bit.”

A number of them started whispering to each other, but none of them were able to tell just what about him was different.

Then, one day…

“Boss!”

Howling Moon received a messenger pigeon. After he opened the letter, he sent a private letter. “Vice Sect Master Ji sent a message, He said that lately, there has been an increasing number of rumors in the Chinese plains. Class One Hall is showing signs of resurrection. Tower Master Shadow of Wind Assault Tower has noticed it, and right now, many of the elites from Wind Assault Tower have entered the capital up north. They’re going to act according to the situation.”

When he heard this, Happy frowned a little and answered calmly, “Have Ji Feng thank the tower master of Wind Assault Tower.

“As for Dream Clouds, since that woman still wants to play, we’ll give her a chance to do so. We’ll let her burn one last time. After she loses this chance, she will no longer have the chance to stand on the stage anymore.

Howling Moon nodded and wrote the letter.

As the subordinate Ji Feng valued the most, Howling Moon had a very clear understanding of Lovely Land’s current strength. Naturally, he knew that Happy had the right to say these words.

This time, there were more than two thousand supreme-class elites who were sent to West Region, and coupled with the other elites from Lovely Land and Chivalry Alliance, their strength was above the Wild Wolves.

Even though Evil Emperor was already in the dao of heaven, Happy gave off a strange feeling that he was full of strength, and Howling Moon no longer suspected that Happy did not have the strength to fight against Evil Emperor.

“Tell Ji Feng that I will be relying on him fully for the matter in the Chinese plains. I’ve already given him Silver Wolf, Knife, Bar, and Thunder. He also has two million Lovely Land members and the supreme-class elites from Wind Assault Tower. If he doesn’t manage to crush Class One Hall and Dream Clouds’ schemes, then he won’t be able to stay a vice sect master for long.”

“Alright.”

When he heard Happy’s words, Howling Moon suddenly had a thin layer of sweat break out on his skin, and he became nervous.

“By the way, sect master, our vanguards have already gathered in Flame Town.

“In four more hours, we will cross the desert and reach Flame Town!”

“Alright, got it.” Happy nodded.

A brief pause later, Howling Moon continued, “Shiva Town is less than 62 miles from Flame Town. Now, all Wild Wolves have gathered in Shiva Town, and they’ve never left. Evil Emperor seemed to not intend to split up from those two thousand people. They’re not carrying out the wild wolves tactic, which they’re the most skilled with. They’re instead carrying out the wolf pack tactic.”

“Hmph.” Wind Chimes had been listening by the side quietly. Now, she spoke up, “Evil Emperor is too careless. Just because he killed someone in the dao of heaven, he intends to fight against us head on?”

Before her voice faded away, Xu Yao frowned and shook her head. “Wind Chimes, you’re wrong. Evil Emperor doesn’t want to fight head on against us. If my guess is correct, he doesn’t want our people to be split up.”

“Huh?” Wind Chimes was stunned.

Howling Moon was also stunned. She looked at Xu Yao in shock, and she did not understand the meaning behind her words.

Happy was the only one who had admiration flash in his eyes when he heard Xu Yao’s analysis.

Just as he expected, Xu Yao was indeed the person who was the most similar to him and who had been with him the longest. There were many places where she would think in the same manner as him.

“She’s right!” Happy praised her without holding back and said, “Evil Emperor has been holding back without taking action because he doesn’t want to alert us and make us run.”

The group behind them had shock appear on them, and they perked up their ears.

“You haven’t been in the fight in the desert. When we fought for Tiger Soul, tens of thousands of elites were gathered in the desert, and among them were thousands of Embroidered Uniform Guards.” Happy’s earnest words traveled clearly into the ears of all the people behind him.

“Before someone in the dao of heaven, a normal player isn’t anything.

“And the people in the dao of heaven are divided into normal martial artists and powerful martial artists. Evil King and Empress Yin have only barely managed to escape unscathed from the desert palace, and they did not dare to stay there at all.

“They aren’t the opponents of a true person in the dao of heaven. Right now, Evil Emperor has already perfected Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art. His strength is definitely among the powerful in the dao of heaven. With just a swing of his hand, even a supreme-class elite will not be able to handle him.”

“Hiss…”

The group of people sucked in sharp breaths.

Howling Moon widened his eyes as well. He appeared to be in disbelief. “Even when one hundred supreme-class elites work together, they won’t be Evil Emperor’s opponent?

“Before a person in the dao of heaven, you won’t even have the chance to work together!” Happy answered.

The group instantly fell silent.

In the abnormally gloomy and nervous atmosphere, Howling Moon stared at Happy and asked hesitantly, “Sect Master, what about you? How’s your strength compared to Evil Emperor?”

“If we don’t fight, I don’t know how my strength measures to his.”

The group had solemn expressions appear on their faces.

But that was aside from Howling Moon.

He was the only one who was able to tell that Happy had not straight up denied that he was not Evil Emperor’s opponent. That meant that Happy was confident that he could fight against Evil Emperor. At the very least, he was strong enough to try and fight against him.

Besides, they had another powerful fighter in Shiva Town! Lovely Land’s Vice Sect Master—One Emperor!

At that time, if both of them worked together, they had the strength to fight against Evil Emperor!

When he thought of this, Howling Moon instantly became much more relaxed.

Happy had his spirit sense cover the area, and Happy could sense Howling Moon stop frowning, along with his excited expression. Naturally, he understood what he had guessed, and he smiled in his heart, but he said nothing.

In truth, from the moment Evil Emperor had managed to defeat a person in the dao of heaven within a short amount of time, Happy did not have complete confidence that he could win against Evil Emperor.

What he said just now was the truth.

He could only do his best in his fight against Evil Emperor, and he had to act according to the situation!

However, he did not intend to make too many explanations to Howling Moon. It was better to let Howling Moon boost the morale among the people behind him instead of Happy destroying his own prestige.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

They rode swiftly forward.

The yellow sand in the distance danced. They had reached the desert.

The group did not slow down. They headed into the desert unhesitantly and left behind a row of dense hoof prints on the smooth sand in the desert.

In Shiva Town’s resurrection temple, Evil Emperor stood in the air with his silver-white hair dancing behind him.

Standing across him on the roof of the divine temple was a man in a brocade robe with black borders. His expression was cold as he held his sword and stared at Evil Emperor.

It was One Emperor, the vice sect master of Lovely Land, and the first member of the Imperial Army.

Right now, One Emperor’s breathing was not stable. A faint look of weakness could be seen on his face. He had a tight frown on his face as he stared at Evil Emperor.

Over the day, he had already died repeatedly in Evil Emperor’s hands.

Even though he had fully understood Fatal Thirteen Swords and could instantly release damage that could threaten even those in the dao of heaven, One Emperor felt a little miserable when he faced Evil Emperor!

He had already activated the last style in the Fatal Thirteen Swords, but due to the limitations in his sword technique, he could no longer improve any further.

But Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art was one of the four divine classics in the world.

Evil Emperor stood supreme.

One Emperor’s confidence was already completely destroyed. Even as he held his longsword in his hands, he lost his confidence in killing Evil Emperor.

“You’re not going to attack anymore?”

Evil Emperor looked down on One Emperor with a cold glance. His tone was cool and mocking.

One Emperor did not say anything.

“One year ago, you were never my opponent. Now, I’ve already cast you far behind myself.” Evil Emperor did not care about One Emperor’s indifference. He smiled smugly. “It’s the same in the real world. You’re famous in the world of mercenaries and are outstanding. In fact, you stand at the same level as me, but unfortunately, you don’t know how to judge the situation, and you don’t know how to use your resources and the general situation. So, no matter how outstanding you are, you will only be a mercenary and a chess piece! You will never be the person playing the game.”

“What about it? What you’re doing didn’t work in the real world, and it won’t work in the game as well. You won’t be in control of the world.” One Emperor countered in a mocking tone.

“Is it?” Evil Emperor had his smile fade away a little. He stared at One Emperor with cold light shining in his eyes, and his tone was much colder. “After today, I will make you understand that very soon, there will only be one person making the decisions in this world, and that will be me!”

“You won’t get your way.” One Emperor sounded very serious, and he said slowly, “At the very least, you won’t be able to take down the Chinese plains. There is someone you won’t be able to win against in the Chinese plains.”

When he heard One Emperor’s words, Evil Emperor remembered the face of someone he hated, and his pupils shrank.

At that moment, a loud voice came from under the divine temple.

“Leader, the Prophet sent news saying that Happy has reached Flame Town!”

“Good.”

Evil Emperor and One Emperor frowned at the same time.

But Evil Emperor soon had his frown disappear. He cast One Emperor a glance and said, “Did you hear that? The person you just mentioned is about to reach this place soon. At that time, I will kill your sect master and the strongest player in the Chinese plains in front of you and your friends!

“At that time, I’d like to see just who else will be able to stop me from entering the Chinese plains!” Evil Emperor’s loud voice swept through the whole city in a domineering manner.
