Chapter 831: Engaged in a Fierce Battle Against Cla.s.s One Hall

The progress in which Cla.s.s One Hall and Mu Clan gained their points could be considered to go smoothly.

With the golden t.i.tle of being a top-cla.s.s sect, it was not a problem for them to monopolize a large group of Mongolian cavaliers, and they were also very strong, which meant that others did not dare readily provoke them.

But Wind a.s.sault Tower and some large-sized sects did not have such an easy time. In fact, some of those sect alliances who were very famous and strong will often encounter compet.i.tion from other factions of power and elites. Hence, they were forced to be engaged in full frontal fights with the Mongolian cavaliers to try and get more points.

Wind a.s.sault Tower ran into a huge problem at an area near the army.

At that time, Dream Clouds and Blood Robes had just killed the group of Mongolian cavaliers they monopolized, and those two quickly changed their direction and found the Mongolian cavaliers Wind a.s.sault Tower kited.

When they arrived, they immediately ordered for Wind a.s.sault Tower to leave the area, and those who had something to say about it were killed on the spot.

“Dream Clouds, don’t go overboard!”

Even though Phantasmal Shadow was in absolute disadvantage when it came to how imposing she was compared to Cla.s.s One Hall, they were currently at a moment where both sides confronted each other, and Phantasmal Shadow wanted to climb up to power, which meant that even though she might be weaker, she still had to do her best in the fight. Besides, she still had the people from Wind a.s.sault Tower beside her. The region which Mu Clan monopolized was also three miles away. Even though there were thousands of Cla.s.s One Hall elites who came over in an aggressive manner, she did not fear them, and it allowed her to rebuke them loudly.

Silence fell among those from Cla.s.s One Hall.

“Hall master, they’re from Wind a.s.sault Tower, and Phantasmal Shadow is personally leading the group.”

When she heard her subordinates report the situation to her, Dream Clouds frowned slightly, and she felt displeased.

Naturally, she knew that Phantasmal Shadow had already become Mu Clan’s ally. Phantasmal Shadow was a major factor behind why Towering Palace had lost so quickly and become a dying flower about to become a thing of the past. If Mu Clan had been alone in the situation, they will not be able to mobilize a large group of people, and it will be hard for them to force Towering Palace to that state in such a short time.

Phantasmal Shadow had been a great thorn in her side over this period of time, and Dream Clouds hated her for a long time.

Right now, when she saw Phantasmal Shadow, she could not help but have raging killing intent burn in her chest, but no change could be seen on Dream Clouds’ face. She only asked one question faintly, “How many people are there?”

“Fewer than five hundred.”

When she heard her subordinate’s answer, Dream Clouds cast a glance at the two thousand or so people who were still fighting against the Mongolian cavaliers and refused to retreat.

“Kill them, and be straightforward in your actions. Don’t drag out the fight.”

Even though the players will not be inflicted with the severely weakened status during the event period at the border of the two countries and it will not cause any effect to Mu Clan, each time the players died, the points they acc.u.mulated will be reduced to zero, and it will deliver a huge blow to Wind a.s.sault Tower.

“Understood.”

The Cla.s.s One Hall elites received their orders and no longer hesitated. They swung their weapons and slaughtered their enemies.

The people who originally resisted Cla.s.s One Hall were immediately surrounded, and dozens of people died on the spot.

Those thousands of Cla.s.s One Hall members attacked unthinkingly, and they paid special attention to the people from Wind a.s.sault Tower.

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

“You jerks from Cla.s.s One Hall, you’ll pay for what you did today!”

“Tower master, leave!”

The Wind a.s.sault Tower members could also tell that Cla.s.s One Hall was most probably taking revenge on Wind a.s.sault Tower helping Mu Clan with this move. Wu Kuo led his group to fight as they retreated, and their main goal was to escort Phantasmal Shadow to safety.

When she saw that the people from Cla.s.s One Hall had attacked, Phantasmal Shadow’s charming and beautiful eyes showed no alarm or anger. Instead, they sparkled radiantly, “No need! Big brother, send a messenger pigeon to contact Silver Wolf, Happy, Little North, Momo, or anyone of the higher ups from Mu Clan. Tell them about the situation here.”

“Cla.s.s One Hall is going overboard with their tyranny, we’ll definitely tell Mu Clan about this, but we’ll have to leave first before we do anything else!” When he saw the people from Cla.s.s One Hall surround them, Wu Kuo was anxious and livid. “You’ve finally got yourself more than eight thousand points, and if you die, all your efforts will be wasted! Hurry up! While they still haven’t completely surrounded us just yet, we have to leave!”

“Listen to me. You won’t go wrong in this.”

Phantasmal Shadow stood her ground in incredible calm while she stared at the people from Cla.s.s One Hall slaughtering their way to them with an aggressive presence. She showed no signs of wanting to leave.

“You—”

“Big brother, we can only gain something by losing something! Trust me!”

Phantasmal Shadow stared into Wu Kuo’s eyes calmly, and he finally calmed down gradually, but he still took her words with a grain of salt. “What do you mean by gaining something by losing something?”

He still could not imagine how they could gain anything by losing more than eight thousand points.

But while he spoke, he no longer retreated.

Because Phantasmal Shadow always thought through everything deeply before she made any of her actions, and she will not act recklessly.

Phantasmal Shadow smiled faintly.

“You know as well that this morning, Langye as well as Violent Wind and b.l.o.o.d.y Rain received the t.i.tle of senior-rank captain, and they received their quests ahead of us. Forget about Violent Wind and b.l.o.o.d.y Wind, while he’s strong, he’s in a sect to the south, and he has no relation with Cla.s.s One Hall whatsoever. He’ll need to take a few days before he can trigger that quest.”

“I know about that as well, but why are you mentioning them?”

“Langye is the tower master of Sky Penetrating Tower, and it’s a tower in Beijing. Right now, they should be one of Cla.s.s One Hall’s most loyal affiliates. If Langye and Dream Clouds work together, they will soon trigger a large-scale quest.” Phantasmal Shadow’s tone was calm.

Wu Kuo gradually realized that he seemed to have caught on to something, but…

“I know about those as well, but what does that have to do with us staying here to die?”

“…You still don’t understand.”

Phantasmal Shadow sighed in resignation. At that moment, she deeply suspected whether she was really related by blood with her big brother and whether one of them was actually adopted.

“Mu Clan and Cla.s.s One Hall have bad blood between each other. This time, will Mu Clan be willing to see Cla.s.s One Hall seize the initiative? Of course not. The situation was fine in the beginning stages of the event, since everyone was busy acc.u.mulating points and stayed out of each other’s business. No one was willing to turn complete enemies against each other, because they know that once they go to war, it will not benefit either side, but now, Langye’s appearance has broken the balance.”

“…What do you mean?” Wu Kuo turned red in the face.

Phantasmal Shadow found herself even more speechless. She stared at the Cla.s.s One Hall elites who rushed over and enunciated her words clearly. “Mu Clan needs a reason to attack.”

Wu Kuo’s eyes lit up. Then, he asked in slight worry, “But how do you know that Mu Clan will definitely attack?”

Phantasmal Shadow did not explain. Instead, she brought out her weapon and rushed to the people from Cla.s.s One Hall without turning back.

When he saw this, Wu Kuo instantly sucked in a sharp breath!

“‘We can only gain something by losing something!”‘

He finally understood what Phantasmal Shadow meant.

Right now, Wind a.s.sault Tower was Mu Clan’s ally.

If Mu Clan knew that Cla.s.s One Hall had publicly attacked Mu Clan’s ally and utterly destroyed them, there was no way Mu Clan will stand by and do nothing.

When he thought of this, Wu Kuo no longer hesitated. “My friends, we’re fighting to the end with those Cla.s.s One Hall b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!”

Among enraged roars that sounded like tidal waves, hundreds of Wind a.s.sault Tower members launched their counterattack with an indomitable spirit.

This action even affected the Wind and Rain Alliance members who were fighting while retreating in order to leave the place!

“Darn it!”

“Phantasmal Shadow, that woman! She’s forcing me to a dead end here! If I run now, how am I going to gain a footing in the alliance in the future?! If others know about this, they’ll say that I can’t even compare to a woman and that I ran around like a headless chicken because of a woman… If those from Mu Clan know that I abandoned an ally… d.a.m.n it! Brothers and sisters, go back! Slaughter your way back! We’ll fight against those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds from Cla.s.s One Hall to the end!”

“AAAAARGHHHH!!”

Enraged shouts could be heard rising and falling as they surged to the clouds above the plains. Thousands of people turned back under Dream Clouds’ astonished gaze!

Then, a chaotic battle involving three sides soon broke out!
