novelStorm Outside the Evil Cult
| ← Ch.0596 | Ch.0598 → |
"What's going on?"
"There're so many people here... Ah, it's the people from Snow Eagle Group!"
The crowd at the back suddenly burst into a commotion, and Happy turned his head around to look. He immediately noticed that the attention of the players who had been grinding nearby was attracted by a group with pretty good equipment.
They had more than one hundred people, and they came from outside in a mighty wave with an extraordinary presence. At a normal speed, they headed to the entrance of Sky Demon Sect. By the looks of it, it the large group had some kind of quest, and they were prepared to carry it out inside Sky Demon Sect!
Happy said nothing, but he instantly frowned.
The inside of Sky Demon Sect was an open hall. There were less than one hundred Moksha Realm evil cult disciples and Sky Demon Sect apostles inside. Such a big lineup was not necessary to deal with them.
'Looks like someone leaked the news of Sky Demon Secret Cave. ' Happy smiled coldly. He might not know who it was, but it was clear that it was due to Mu Clan's act of buying Sky Demon Orders. It was an attack against Mu Clan.
While thinking about that, Happy mingled among the players without batting an eyelid and followed the group to get closer to the entrance of Sky Demon Sect!
The people guarding it had the same emblem on their chests as Snow Eagle Group. When they heard who was coming over, they went up to meet them, and the man with Nation Protecting Divine Sword stepped forward to speak.
"Snow Wolf, what's going on? You brought the elites from Group 1 and Group 2 over. This is a major lineup... Is there some sort of operation inside?"
"Let's go inside and talk, " the person in the lead answered in a very soft voice.
He had white-hair, which he had dyed that way, and he did not even forget his eyebrows. He looked incredibly cold and callous, and he stood out in his group by being incredibly eye-catching.
With one wave of his hand, the group entered Sky Demon Sect in a continuous stream!
This sort of mysterious move naturally caught even more attention from the large group of players who were following after them. Quite a number of them had pretty decent equipment and strength, and they were very interested in Snow Eagle Group's operation. Without slowing down, they followed them in groups of three and five.
"Stay where you are."
The man with Nation Protecting Divine Sword naturally noticed that. He frowned, and the other people from his group blocked the entrance.
Since Sky Demon Sect was located inside a mountain, once the entrance was blocked, no matter how good a person's lightness skills were, it was useless.
"My apologies, everyone. This is a sect quest. We'll have to temporarily make things difficult for you. One hour later, we will naturally open up the place for you."
Those words were rather polite. If another person, who was a little more arrogant and domineering, were in their place and saw that they had more people on their side, they would not care about tact at all. They would just tell the others to go away.
However, since the crowd was already interested in Snow Eagle Group's quest, there was no way the people would be sent away with just a few words.
"What now? When did Sky Demon Sect turn into Snow Eagle Group's personal territory? Are you just going to lock it and open it up for public at a whim? I never heard that Snow Eagle Group was the one calling the shots here."
"That's right!"
"Your sect master's orders are for you alone. If I want to go in, can you stop me?"
The people from Snow Eagle Group said nothing. Even though they were quite good, there were also many good players who often wandered about Sky Demon Sect. Each of them had the support of a sect behind them, and they also had some degree of skill as well as strength, which allowed them to fear nothing.
"Don't let them cause a delay to our operation."
Snow Eagle, who was the one who had brought the large group over, stood by the side and watched. When he saw a group of good players at the entrance, he narrowed his eyes slightly."Stop them here, and I'll guard the place inside. No matter what, don't let them enter."
This time, he did not intentionally lower the volume of his voice!
The expressions of the elites at the entrance changed.
Snow Eagle Group was actually pretty decent. If they truly sent a group of people to guard the entrance, then unless someone had Happy's skills, there would be very few who would be able to get through safely.
At that moment, an indifferent voice rose arrogantly from outside."Heh! What arrogant words! I'd like to see whether you people will be able to block my Six Pulses Divine Sword and my people from Towering Palace!"
The expressions of the people from Snow Eagle Group changed drastically at that moment.
They turned their heads around to look, and another group divided the crowd in a mighty wave to arrive at the entrance of Sky Demon Sect. The person in the lead was the successor of Six Pulses Divine Sword, who had recently risen to fame at the martial arts tournament—Vast Heaven!
He had joined Towering Palace, which was one of the four top-class sects, after the martial arts tournament, and he became the top elite under Clear Music. He also changed the awkward situation where Towering Palace did not have any elite fighters, and they could finally secure their spot as one of the top-class sects, if only barely.
Compared to Towering Palace, Snow Eagle Group was still too weak, and Vast Heaven had even personally led a group of elites, who were currently standing behind him.
The people from Snow Eagle Group instantly found themselves unable to act tough and unyielding.
Blocking the entrance might work against the scattered elites as well as sects who were about the same level as them, but it was not suitable against Towering Palace, because they might just end up blocking them at their headquarters!
Vast Heaven loved this feeling a lot. When he saw that the people from Snow Eagle Group were seething with rage, he walked slowly to Snow Wolf and enunciated his words clearly.
"Tell those people of yours inside to come out. Towering Palace will be occupying this place. We'll enter ten minutes later, and if there's anyone inside, we will kill them without mercy!"
"You... No matter what, we're the ones who arrived first! If you do this, you're being unfair!" Snow Wolf suppressed the urge to draw his sword and said through gritted teeth, "We've prepared for a long time for this quest. We can't just give up on everything because of one sentence from you! If we do that, we'll not be able to play this game anymore."
"What does that have to do with me?"
"I heard that Palace Master Music from Towering Palace has never lorded over others because of her strength. She always provides an explanation to others for whatever she does. Are you saying that Towering Palace has decided to cast aside its principles once you joined it?"
Vast Heaven might be a little domineering, but when it came to the question of Towering Palace's reputation, he would not act recklessly.
His gaze shifted, and he said, "Hehe, we can negotiate this. If you want a reason, very well, I'll give you one."
He cast his gaze on a person beside Snow Wolf."I find you an eyesore. Why did you just have to imitate Happy out of everyone? Hmph. The mere sight of you grates on my nerves."
The people from Snow Eagle Group were stunned speechless, and their expressions changed.
Vast Heaven was clearly finding fault out of nothing just because he needed a reason.
But he did not seem to have the intention of wasting his breath with them anymore, and his tone became severe."You have eight more minutes to leave."
The onlookers had been delighted by Snow Eagle Group's misfortune, but when they saw that Towering Palace wanted to occupy the place, their expressions turned even more unpleasant.
At this moment, a voice that was neither cold nor indifferent spoke from the crowd.
"As expected of the third strongest in the world. Brother Vast Heaven, your temper is indeed extraordinary. But this doesn't seem like a place for Towering Palace to act as they please. If Mu Clan wanted to enter, I wonder whether we would be categorized among the people whom you will kill without mercy."
Vast Heaven's expression changed.
Everyone in the area turned their heads around, and the crowd parted by itself.
However, the group that came forward did not have a huge lineup. There was only one man and woman, and they walked over with steady footsteps.
"Ten Thousand Poison Duke!"
"Throw Spirit Duchess!"
The sounds of people sucking in sharp breaths out of surprise came from the crowd.
Before they could calm down from one surprise, another came!
The people from Snow Eagle Group were completely speechless then. They moved to the side of the entrance and looked at their companion who held Nation Protecting Divine Sword.
'This guy really made the right guess. The people from Mu Clan are here now!' they thought.
