Chapter 1114: Victory in the First Battle
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The news of the local forces in the Chinese server pushing Wild Wolves completely out of the Chinese server had caused quite the ruckus on the official website. They were also shocked by the alliance of forces Dream Clouds gathered, because she had practically gathered together all the high-leveled forces of power in the north of the Chinese server. But even so, they did not expect that Wild Wolves would lose so quickly and completely.
The two times Evil Emperor fought against Happy went to the top ten of the pay-to-view battle replay system, and they were positioned at the top and second most viewed videos.
Lovely Land also instantly entered countless players’ eyes in the whole world.
This was a sect that was spontaneously built. During one month, it had expanded to the point that it had one million members. At the same time, it had also recruited One Emperor, a top-class player who was the only person who could fight against Evil Emperor in the past, and Wandering Know-it-all, the most famous and richest diviner in the Chinese server.
In an instant, the new Iron Triangle Alliance in the Chinese server was formed.
Countless Chinese players knew that Lovely Land was about to replace Class One Hall as the biggest sect in the Chinese server, and it would also become the strongest sect ever known in the Chinese server.
There was one person among the countless people watching Lovely Land. She quietly observed Lovely Land as it slowly grew stronger.
It was Dream Clouds!
After she died and was trapped in a city near City, Dream Clouds seldom appeared in a public place, and this included the core members who were trapped with her. Every day, once they logged in, they would gather information from all places in the restaurant, and their area of activity was very small.
“Hall master.”
“While Lovely Land has built quite a lot of branches in the south, they show no intention of touching the resource points nearby. Aside from training, they only do quests. I heard that Happy has released a firm order. If anyone uses the name of Lovely Land on their own to occupy the resource points near the cities, once the newly built elder council hears of this, they will immediately expel the person from Lovely Land. By the looks of it, Happy is truly ready to give all the resources to the south of Changjiang to Phantasmal Shadow.”
The people sitting across Dream Clouds were all the former elders of Class One Hall, and they were core members of Class One Hall in the real world. Right now, all of them had lost their former enthusiasm, and there was a perpetual gloomy and worried look in their eyes.
At that time, when Class One Hall lost near the headquarters of Lovely Land, one-third of the top-class elites who were affiliated to Class One Hall left after Dream Clouds gave her orders to break out of the encirclement. The others left Class One Hall after they received their orders, and they were currently acting in a low profile like any other normal martial artist while they waited for this matter to calm down and also waited for the Chinese players to stop persecuting Class One Hall.
They gave up on all their resource points and also all their branches.
No Class One Hall member could be found moving around the Chinese server anymore, and no Blood Alliance member or members from the twelve Beijing sects could be found as well.
The elder council understood why Dream Clouds did this. One, it was to have this disaster pass as soon as possible and have the bad memories of Class One Hall fade away from the people’s hearts so that they could return to the former order before this entire fiasco happened, and they could train, do quests, and go on adventures.
It was only when they got through this disaster that Dream Clouds could begin her machinations in the dark.
Of course, Dream Clouds had actually been prepared for a show when she admitted to defeat completely this time.
Lovely Land had developed incredibly quickly, and its branches spread through the entire Chinese plains.
Wind Assault Tower was once the largest and strongest sect in the Chinese plains, but it can now only occupy certain spots in the south, which was why it was also using this chance to recover its strength and become stronger.
If both sides got into conflict and fought against each other for the sake of interests, it would be a good chance for Class One Hall.
Dream Clouds knew that Lovely Land is not united, and there were plenty of weaknesses in it. The members had only gathered together because of Happy’s revenge fund and for a righteous cause.
Once they lost their enemy, they would naturally start thinking about their own personal interests.
But what annoyed her was that over the past twenty days, Lovely Land had not touched the resource points in the south even in the slightest. They ignored the resource points that could bring them a profit of a few ten billion in one day. They just let Wind Assault Tower have it all while they were steadily expanding and recovering their strength.
Once Lovely Land showed them such respect, even if Wind Assault Tower was formerly the strongest sect in the Chinese server, it could only decisively have the expansion of its branches stop to the south of Changjiang.
The two Chinese sects got along well in tacit agreement.
One of them used time to stabilize its strength, and the other used time to recover and become stronger, which made them seem as if they were getting along in conjugal bliss.
While Class One Hall vanished without a trace and ceased all activities, the power layout in the Chinese server changed completely in this manner, and it had even happened in a manner as if this was completely logical.
Dream Clouds said nothing. She leaned against her chair and stared at ripples that slowly rose on the surface of the lake outside the window.
She had actually come up with a plan. Once both sides were in conflict, she would immediately use certain extreme tactics to magnify their conflict and cause the relationship between the two forces to worsen to the point that they would end up as mortal enemies, and this would in turn let Class One Hall have the chance to rise to power.
Right now, she could only use the other plan.
She could only wait for the Chinese players to have their hate toward Class One Hall fade away, but this would require a lot of time.
*****
At that moment, a messenger pigeon suddenly flew in from outside the window. It flapped its wings before it landed on the table, and it started pecking at the food on a small dish.
“It’s a letter from Vice Hall Master Blood.”
When she saw that Dream Clouds did not take any action, the person across her understood what she wanted, and he went up to get the letter.
“Read it.”
Dream Clouds finally became more energetic.
After Blood Robes led his group to break out of the encirclement, he obtained support from Wild Wolves and broke up the group to enter Vietnam and Thailand in batches. They obtained a number of decent resource points from the local sects and set up their branches, allowing them to retain Class One Hall’s name and its final strength.
Right now, after Blood Alliance completely fell apart, Blood Robes was no longer the alliance master of Blood Alliance but had resumed his title as the vice sect master of Class One Hall. He led a group of people with Barren Murderer and stationed themselves in the two neighboring countries to rest and recuperate.
That person respectfully took down the letter and opened it. Once he skimmed through it, his expression suddenly turned a little sour.
The two people beside him also skimmed through the letter, and they were dumbfounded. Their breathing quickened.
“What’s wrong?”
Dream Clouds quickly noticed that the elders in front had their expressions change. He scowled, and his voice became louder as he braced himself and handed the letter to Dream Clouds.
“Vice Sect Master Blood said that they were suddenly harassed by a small local sect from Vietnam. Not only had they lost a group of people, One Emperor has just brought a group of people from Wind Assault Tower and Lovely Land to cross the borders to Vietnam…”
Dream Clouds said nothing, but her hand, which was stretched out in the air, froze for half a second. Her expression quickly turned dark, and she snatched the letter.
“We’ve already left the Chinese server, and One Emperor still isn’t willing to let us go…? Does he want to kill us all?”
The contents of the letter were terrifying.
Class One Hall had mobilized its forces en masse in a flashy manner because they were provoked by a small local sect in Vietnam, and they wanted to establish their might over there, but during the night, more than ten thousand of them were killed by a group of masked people in black, and they were led by One Emperor. Later on, someone managed to recognize One Emperor, and they thought that the Chinese army had arrived. They were so terrified that they fled helter-skelter, and they lost their courage to fight back. They did not even care about protecting the branch.
Nearly half of the Class One Hall members in Vietnam were lost, and among them were more than ten top-class elites. One of them was even Blood Robes!
“Hall master, what should we do? Happy and Phantasmal Shadow don’t seem to intend to stop attacking us…” The elders looked pale, and their voices became even more anxious than before.
Right now, the two groups led by Blood Robes and Barren Murderer were their last strength. If this group of people were all killed, it would be very difficult for them to return to the Chinese server…
But Dream Clouds quickly calmed down after anger overwhelmed her for a moment. Her eyes shone with a fierce light. “Something’s wrong… Before One Emperor ambushed us, somehow, a small local sect in Vietnam decided to harass us. This is too much of a coincidence…”
“Could it be because we’re occupying these sects’ share of the resources? They might have run into this group of people while they had been planning for their revenge for a long time.”
The elders did not think about this in depth.
Dream Clouds shook her head and said firmly, “Vietnam doesn’t have a lot of resources, and the sects working with Wild Wolves have occupied all the resources in Vietnam. Those small sects have no right to interfere… When these people attacked us, it’s clear that they were just asking for their own deaths. But One Emperor somehow knew about our location, and the timing of his attack was just right. What does that mean?”
The elders said nothing. They sucked in sharp breaths before they looked at each other.
“Do we have spies among us?”
“We won’t get rid of that possibility, but the problem is, the Chinese players have seldom gone to other countries. How could One Emperor have possibly understood the entire situation in Vietnam in such a short time? Even Phantasmal Shadow and Wandering Know-it-all would not have been able to do this.”
Dream Clouds had straightaway eliminated the possibility of Happy knowing all this, because since the person who had been laying in bed for one and a half years already had such incredible wit and strength, it was impossible for him to have the time and energy to pay attention to the situation of the countries outside the Chinese server.
She immediately placed her suspicions on Wandering Know-it-all and Phantasmal Shadow.
“Order Blood Robes to leave Vietnam. Since One Emperor has personally led the group, even if Wild Wolves go over, they can’t do anything about him. Evil Emperor has gone back to America, and he won’t be able to cross over to Vietnam within just a short period of time. We can only give up on our branch in Vietnam.” When Dream Clouds made the decision, she felt as if there was a knife twisting in her heart.
The further they were from the Chinese server, the more people would leave Class One Hall.
This time, One Emperor killed twenty thousand of their people, and perhaps even more people would be worried about Class One Hall’s future. Who knew just how people would remain in the sect after today?
“Barren Murderer might be in danger as well…”
Dream Clouds quickly wrote a letter before she released it.
It took a full fifteen minutes before the messenger pigeon returned, and it carried with it Evil Emperor’s reply. [The situation is worse than what we imagined. Not only was your branch in Vietnam attacked, even the local Vietnam sects working with us have been attacked by One Emperor. Many of the local sects in Vietnam have been instigated, and now, Vietnam is in chaos.]
When she read Evil Emperor’s grave reply, Dream Clouds scowled before she sucked in a sharp breath, and she scowled even further.
After a long time, she fearfully said something that caused the elders in front of her to feel terrified.
“This is bad… Not only do Happy and Phantasmal Shadow intend to kill us as soon as possible, they might even be thinking about waging a full-out war against Wild Wolves!”
“Are they mad?!”
“With just their strength alone?”
“With the newly built Lovely Land and the crippled Wind Assault Tower?”
“They’re thinking about challenging Wild Wolves outside the Chinese plains? Aren’t they worried that Evil Emperor will attack their nest?!”
