\"ROAR!\"
A dragon roar caused the clouds to move in Beijing!
At that moment, Happy pushed the might and the ability to create chaos within Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm to its limits. After he used Dragon Hides in Pool, countless Yuan Dynasty soldiers seemed to have been attacked by a level 12 tornado. They crashed into the walls in the area like cannonballs. That included a group of elites at the peak of Moksha Realm, such as the Divine Arrow Eight Heroes. They, too, could not quite find their footing and stopped shooting arrows to protect Prince Ruyang.
Zhang Wuji, Zhou Zhiruo, Xuanming Elders, A'da, and A'er were the only ones in the area who remained at ease and were not hurt!
When Happy made a mess of the place, the elites of Ruyang Mansion placed the safety of Prince Ruyang as their priority. They separated themselves from Zhang Wuji, and he brought Zhao Min to a safe place.
A clear distinction between the camps appeared.
\"Eighth Prince, I hope that you will not continue to force my father's hand in the future. I will not marry your son. I hope that you will not take the transgression upon you today to heart. Someday in the future, I will definitely come to your house to ask for your forgiveness.\"
Zhao Min pushed the Eighth Prince forward and glared at Happy before she said to Zhang Wuji, \"Let's go.\"
Zhang Wuji gave Zhou Zhiruo a slightly apologetic glance. Then, his gaze landed on Happy's face, who landed beside Zhou Zhiruo at that moment. \"Today is not the time to catch up on old times. Some day in the future, I hope that you will have time to talk to me on Light Summit, Young Swordsman Happy. Goodbye.\"
\"... Goodbye.\"
Happy put his fist in his palm as a salute, but he could hear Zhou Zhiruo snorting softly beside him.
\"Sect Leader Zhou, let's go. There are countless elites in Beijing, and if we continue dragging this out, it might not be good for us.\"
When Zhou Zhiruo saw Zhang Wuji leave and the elites from Ruyang Mansion show signs of thinking to surround them, she knew that she could not do what she had planned. She did not say anything, but tapped against the ground to head to the roof in the distance.
\"After her! Chase after her! You must kill Emei Sect's Zhou Zhiruo!\" Prince Ruyang walked down the stairs while surrounded by a group of elites from the royal mansion and shouted at Zhou Zhiruo's back, \"How dare you come to Beijing to try and kill my daughter, Minmin! I will definitely destroy Emei Sect to its last member!
\"Xuanming Elders! Immediately fire a signal and notify the city guard to catch the assassins!
\"A'da, A'er! After them! You must bring me Zhou Zhiruo and Happy's heads!\"
\"Understood!\"
Four Inaction Realm elites respectfully received their orders at the same time.
When the four elites took action, it was only then that the murderous air that could only be generated in the battlefields disappeared from Prince Ruyang. He turned to the Eighth Prince, who had just escaped death. \"Eighth Prince, I am sorry that you went through such a shock.\"
The Eighth Prince said nothing.
*****
\"Hall master!\"
There were numerous messenger pigeons that kept flying back and forth in the headquarters of Class One Hall. Wherever anyone was, they could see messenger pigeons flapping their wings. Some people even had around ten messenger pigeons flying around them. When they saw it, they decided to ignore all the birds and just run into the headquarters themselves.
A person rushed into the sect prison of the headquarters.
When he looked inside, he found that the atmosphere was grave. There were already a few higher ups standing in front of Dream Clouds. All of them had dark and solemn expressions, to the point that it looked like there were thunderclouds above their heads.
\"Hall master, he is too bold. He knows that our headquarters are here, and he dared to show his tracks in Beijing? He's looking down on us!\"
\"Hall master, please give your orders, I've already sent some of our people to intercept him near the city gate. Today, if we let Happy leave Beijing easily, we will lose all our dignity, and we won't be able to hold our footing in Beijing anymore.\"
The people who spoke were core members of Class One Hall, and most of the ones gathered there had died due to Chivalry Sect, Mu Clan, or Happy before. When they received the shocking news from the people outside, they could not suppress the burning fire in their hearts. It rose madly, and it wanted to burn Happy to ashes.
Even after Dream Clouds heard many people speak, she remained quiet, but her face was so dark that it was terrible.
She remembered the news that Blood Robes had brought back to her sometime earlier.
A mysterious player in Heaven Fragrant Tower had defeated Blood Robes in just ten moves and would have killed him if not the protection of the restaurant.
Since the person Blood Robes mentioned was Happy, Dream Clouds had to think about what to do carefully.
Even though the four elites of Class One Hall were all in Beijing, Dream Clouds still felt lost. She did not know what was Happy's goal and what was the significance behind him appearing in Beijing in such a flashy manner.
Besides, Happy had actually obtained the legacy of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm. He could go up against Inaction Realm martial artists head-on now, and there was also Zhou Zhiruo, whose strength was unfathomable, by his side.
Dream Clouds did not have the confidence that she could kill him in such a situation.
For the first time ever, her mind was conflicted, and she found it hard to come to a decision!
\"Big Sis Clouds.\"
Blood Robes appeared in the cell, and his expression was incredibly sour.
Dying in Happy's hands once had already destroyed his ego, and it left behind quite a trauma in his heart. But he did not expect that the great fighter in Heaven Fragrant Tower would also be Happy.
When he thought that his efforts over the past month or so had still not helped him close the distance between him and Happy but had instead caused the distance between them to become wider, Blood Robes felt a very gloomy feeling rise in his chest.
\"We've got to know who that person is.\" Blood Robes walked in front of Dream Clouds. \"Happy came to Beijing to save two people from the dungeon in Ruyang Mansion. Based on the observations of the people nearby, one of them was Silver Wolf, and the other Demonic Zither Wind Chimes, who rose to fame recently.\"
\"I understand,\" Dream Clouds answered faintly, but she still did not show any intention to come to a decision.
In truth, Happy alone was enough to make her hesitant.
If she attacked recklessly and did not manage to kill Happy, Class One Hall, who had just stabilized their situation, to descend into unrest again. But now, Silver Wolf and Wind Chimes had also popped up into the situation.
Silver Wolf had perfected Red Flame Palm, and many players who challenged him could not even last through ten moves against him. It was said that as long as he wanted to, he could easily get a secure spot in the top ten of Dragon Rank.
Wind Chimes was a typical great player who rose to the ranks by relying on ultimate techniques. Her ability to kill using sound was ingenious and domineering! Her area of attack also resulted in her practically having no weaknesses to exploit.
She could easily handle group fights!
Four people like that had the ability to fight against Class One Hall's headquarters.
When Dream Clouds thought of this, she felt an unprecedented sense of danger surge up in her heart.
'We can't fight them. If we do, we might end up dragging Class One Hall into a dangerous swamp we've never seen before.'
Dream Clouds opened her eyes and ordered loudly, \"Let him leave Beijing!\"
\"Hall master!\"
Regret and indignation appear on the faces of a few higher ups, but when Dream Clouds looked at them with an awe-inspiring gaze, they shuddered, hunched their shoulders, and did not say anything.
*****
At that moment, more than eight hundred Class One Hall members had gathered at the south city gate of Beijing after they received orders. The roofs and streets were filled with people.
They had just received letters via messenger pigeons and learned the shocking news that Happy had actually appeared in Beijing.
They were originally still doubtful, but when they saw two figures who were swiftly charging toward them from the distance and gradually becoming clearer, the crowd became on guard.
\"Look!\"
\"They're here!\"
\"Zhou Zhiruo and Happy… Hey, Zhou Zhiruo seems to be injured.\"
As the two drew closer, the group keenly noticed that Zhou Zhiruo was behind Happy, and while she ran, blood trickled out of the corners of her mouth.
Behind them were Xuanming Elders, A'da, and A'er. They were less than fifty feet away, and they were moving as fast as lightning.
When Zhou Zhiruo saw the lineup in front of them, she smiled in anguish and put away Heavenly Sword without batting an eyelid. \"Happy, leave! Forget about me!\"
