Sword Among Us Novel - Chapter 769
Chapter 769: Not Resisting, Surprise
Vicious!
For the first time, Musical Note sensed a chill that came from the bottom of her heart, and the cause of it was this young man who had not graduated from university and entered the society yet.
After all, the reason for this entire event was because Mu Clan had boldly stationed themselves in Yangzhou by setting up a branch in Towering Palace, which was why they stirred up displeasure in Towering Palace and made them want to fight back. Then, as Class One Hall egged them on, all sorts of other reasons caused them to want to destroy Mu Clan.
But not only had Towering Palace not gained any benefits in their plan to destroy Mu Clan, they had even lost tens of thousands of people!
As for Mu Clan, they managed to devour all cities at the south of the coastal area in one ago, causing Towering Palace to lose another tens of thousands of people.
If Mu Clan had not been agitating Clear Music behind the scenes, things would not have progressed to this state.
Besides, as people who had met each other once because of the official developers and who had communicated with each other, Happy still showed no hesitation when he decided to completely destroy Towering Palace.
For the first time, Musical Note found that she had underestimated this student who was younger than her by a few years.
He was nothing like a student!
His actions showed the ruthlessness of an experienced member of society! His plans were carefully thought through! And he showed no mercy to his enemies!
‘Happy, what a man…’
Musical Note’s chest heaved. She stared into Happy’s eyes. “Even if Towering Palace is in the wrong this time, you’ve already decided to destroy Towering Palace since a long time ago. Hmph! And the people in the game say that Class One Hall’s Dream Clouds, my sister, and I are ambitious! To me, you’re the one with the greatest desire for power!”
Happy ignored Musical Note’s accusations and criticisms while he calmly jumped over the Musical Note, Shangguan Lian, and Hai Dongqing to land on the roof.
He looked down from above and surveyed the area. There was no longer anyone inside the headquarters.
Towering Palace showed a stance that they will not fight back, and it caused the Mu Clan and Wind Assault Tower elites who entered the headquarters to be stunned, but also calmed down.
Musical Note’s tactic was pretty good.
By choosing not to fight back at all, it will be easy for them to earn other people’s compassion and pity!
Unfortunately for them, Happy was not the only person who was determined to destroy Towering Palace and get rid of the greatest ally Class One Hall might obtain, who also happened to be a top-class sect with the closest relationship with foreign organizations.
There was another group of people who hated Towering Palace to the core!
They were the group of Mu Clan elites who broke out of Yangzhou, and they were led by Silver Wolf.
When Silver Wolf no longer saw any target he could kill, he cast a glance at Happy, who was on the roof. Then, he gave his order resolutely. “Gather all your firepower and destroy the foundation ASAP!”
Frequent strikes rang through the headquarters.
The Towering Palace members protected the area outside warily and allowed the Mu Clan members to destroy the foundation. The shock in their hearts did not fade away even after a long time had passed.
Once Happy led his group of people to appear in the place, the tens of thousands of Towering Palace members in Yangzhou City seemed to have turned into decorations.
Bang! Clang! Rumble!
Fierce and violent qi flows continued to ram against the palace’s foundation, and those qi flow came in a never-ending stream.
Outside the headquarters, countless martial artists who were there to watch held their breaths as they saw a large group of Mu Clan members take turns attacking the foundation that no one guarded, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.
‘Does Towering Palace intend to have things end just like this?’
‘Is one of the strongest sects in the Chinese server who has enjoyed a period of glory for a few months going to end like this when they face Mu Clan?’
The situation inside Towering Palace was very strange.
All members just gathered around the headquarters with livid but resigned gazes, and they just let Mu Clan’s members attack their foundation.
Musical Note, Shangguan Lian, and Hai Dongqing had no weapons in their hands, and they just stood in the atrium.
Happy placed his hands behind his back while he stood on the roof of the headquarters. He steeled his heart and pretended that he heard nothing around him. He only stared to the north, and his expression could not be seen.
*****
As time passed, the defense for the foundation of Towering Palace’s headquarters continued dropping, and gradually, it was filled with cracks.
Mu Clan’s men continued to attack diligently, and they never let up in their attacks.
There were a few times where the people outside the headquarters were prepared to rush in, but they were received by Happy, Silver Wolf, and the others’ expectant gazes, along with Musical Note, Shangguan Lian, and the others’ rebukes!
Musical Note and the rest knew that even though Towering Palace had the clear advantage in numbers and could control the situation because they had control over the Guanlin Temples in the area, with Happy serving as garrison, the Dragon Sect elites did not have any room to showcase their talent. Vast Heaven, Grim Green, and the rest did not even dare show up at the frontlines. If that were the case, who would dare to try challenge their might? If they went forward, they will just be marching to their own deaths.
Besides, they might even cause the situation to worsen.
Musical Note still had not given up yet.
She hoped that with the destruction of Towering Palace’s headquarters and Towering Palace’s attitude, Happy will be shaken slightly.
As long as they managed to affect him a little, Towering Palace will have room to return.
Happy stood on the roof and watched from above. He could see all of Musical Note’s actions, and his heart was filled with contempt.
During the first provocation, he could forgive Towering Palace because their grudge against each other had not been very deep. Besides, at that time, Clear Music was still rational, and she knew that she could not fight against Mu Clan.
But now, Class One Hall had become strong. Foreign organizations who were calculative and had ulterior motives like Dragon Sect had also decided to interfere with the matters in the Chinese server, causing everything to change.
All this made Happy put on his guard.
Due to various reasons and considerations, Happy did not attack Class One Hall, but he cannot let this continue.
When two top-class elites worked together, they could already affect Mu Clan’s core.
Today, he lost one-third of Mu Clan’s elites.
But if this happened again, Mu Clan’s core will be completely shaken!
Happy will not allow such a thing to happen again.
Towering Palace was already a very unstable and dangerous element.
The Chinese server… no, it should be said that the future Mu Clan will not want to see a second powerful and ambitious Dream Clouds or Clear Music appear in the Chinese world of martial artists.
This time, since he already decided to attack, he might as well get rid of all problems!
He must destroy Towering Palace.
As for Class One Hall, he might not be able to mobilize his forces and make them march thousands of miles just yet, but Happy was already planning in secret to pay attention in “taking care” of Class One Hall in the near future to strike down their ego.
Dream Clouds believed that she could rebuild and reestablish Class One Hall’s might just by killing Nine-tailed Fox, which was a creature who had just recently entered Myth Realm.
What she did not know was that there were already two Myth Realm martial artists who died in his hands.
Jinjiu and Yinshi were Dharma protectors of the mighty northern clan, and they were both peerless martial artists at the beginning stage of Myth Realm. All their assets were only stronger than Nine-tailed Fox.
If Class One Hall dreamed about using the fact that they killed Nine-tailed Fox to regain their position at the top of the game, they were merely daydreaming!

‘This time, after we destroy Towering Palace, we can let Wind Assault Tower… No, I can have Phantasmal Shadow become the representative to take charge of the coastal area. She will come forward to manage the territories in the coastal area. There is no hurry for Mu Clan to directly interfere in this matter.’
Happy knew very clearly that as of current, not only did Mu Clan suffer a rather large blow, once he mobilized Mu Clan’s forces here, their core might be very easily affected. It was also difficult for the other branches to send a large group of people to interfere with the matters in the east of the coastal area. This was not the time for them risk their clan. After all, Mu Clan was the support and home for countless members.
While Happy thought about how he should end this matter and was planning about how he should deal with the east side of the coastal area, a commotion suddenly appeared far into the distance outside the headquarters.
A group of Embroidered Uniform Guards in carriages entered Happy’s sights with an astonishing momentum.
