The people who came over were naturally Little North and Momo. During the martial arts tournament, Little North was someone who had won three times consecutively. As for Momo, she did not fight in the finals, but many people knew that when Mu Clan was threatened by the greatest danger, she had served as garrison in Baokang and defeated many players who came from all over the place to challenge them. Her strength was even above Little North's.
"Sure is lively here."
Little North seemed to not have noticed the strange gazes all over the place. He just casually walked up to Vast Heaven and the others while he sucked in a breath and said to Momo, "What should we do, Momo? The people from Towering Palace are here as well, and they brought so many people along... What if they're going to kill us without mercy as well? Aaahhh! This is bad! Boss only asked a few of us to come here! We have a disadvantage in numbers!"
He might have said that, but none of the players in the area saw any signs of fear in him. He walked toward the crowd in a casual manner while black smoke rolled off his body and poison fog surrounded him. Even Vast Heaven could not stand it and moved a few feet back.
Momo was as cold as a statue. She did not show any hint of emotion while she stared at Vast Heaven and the people from Towering Palace.
"What's the point in there being lots of people? When your boss first went to Beijing, he was surrounded by Class One Hall, but he never retreated and slaughtered his way out. Coincidentally, I was thinking about seeing Vast Heaven's Six Pulses Divine Sword as well. I'd like to see whether it is truly as unblockable as they claim."
Vast Heaven said nothing.
He quickly calmed down from the shock brought by Little North and Momo's appearance, and when he heard Momo's words, he laughed coldly."Is this a challenge from Throw Spirit Duchess? I'll accept it gladly."
Even though Momo was pretty famous, Vast Heaven had been prepared to challenge Happy, so there was no way he would be afraid of some Throw Spirit Duchess.
He was eager to use the chance that came out of nowhere to deal a blow against an elite of Mu Clan and gain Towering Palace some fame at the same time.
But just when he finished speaking, a shout came from the crowd."If I knew that the successor of Six Pulses Divine Sword was so competitive, I would have gone up to the headquarters of Towering Palace to challenge you. Brother Vast Heaven, since you're filled with such fervent spirit, why don't you fight against me first? Momo, I'm afraid that I'll be taking this fight out of your hands. Don't hold a grudge against me for this now."
Vast Heaven's eyelids twitched, and his heart let out a loud thump.
'Damn it! Are all the elites from Mu Clan here? Even that bastard Silver Wolf is around... '
Everyone turned their heads around, and the crowd automatically parted to form a path. Quite a number of people looked at the man wearing an incomplete silver mask with great excitement.
The man walked over to Little North and Momo's side with a majestic gait while staring before him with burning eyes.
Vast Heaven frowned.
If they were at Hero's Mountain Villa, he would definitely not be afraid of Silver Wolf. But now, he had to consider many things.
Aside from the delicate relationship between Towering Palace and Mu Clan, he had received word after returning from the tournament that when everyone retreated, there were eight people who received a quest to protect Zhang Wuji.
They were Happy, One Emperor, Silver Wolf, Zhou Yu, Night Rain Asura, Dream Clouds, Lu Mingyue, and Phantasmal Shadow.
Those eight each received an additional point, and they nearly dragged him down from his position!
It was also because of it that a new saying circulated in the game: Vast Heaven had merely relied on Six Pulses Divine Sword to climb to his position. His overall strength was still not enough for him to get to the top ten in China!
While Silver Wolf was ranked among the top ten.
Vast Heaven might have the urge to prove himself, but he was also worried that he would just be verifying everyone's assumption.
Silver Wolf's strength was extraordinary, and with Mu Clan's protection, he became the first to withstand three of One Emperor's slashes and force him to use his fourth slash. As for Vast Heaven, he had not even been able to withstand one slash. He had died in humiliation from the first attack!
Vast Heaven had only been able to receive everything that he had through great effort, and he did not wish to lose it.
When he saw Silver Wolf walk out from the crowd to face him, a war began in his mind.
Silver Wolf seemed to have been able to tell that Vast Heaven was hesitating, and he looked at Snow Eagle Group with an indifferent gaze."Our boss mentioned that Sky Demon Sect doesn't belong to anyone or any sect. He doesn't mind fighting for it in a fair competition, but we will inevitably be in conflict when there is a quest in the area, and our weapons will be blind at that time. Think about this carefully."
Once he finished speaking, he did not give them the chance to answer. He just spoke to a person in the crowd."Wind Chimes, what are you still doing there?"
"Tsk, I saw someone familiar, but he disappeared, so I wanted to read his fortune."
Wind Chimes was dressed in a white dress and held a ridiculous sword casket when she walked out. She pretended as if the angry stares on her did not exist and puffed out her cheeks.
Wind Chimes! Demonic Sound Duchess!
The people from Towering Palace were instantly stunned, and their breathing quickened. Even Vast Heaven cursed Little North in his heart.
'And you said that you only had a few people come here? You brought three elites from Mu Clan along with Demonic Sound Duchess, which is basically the same as four top-class elites gathering in one spot. With that sort of lineup, do you even need to bring lackeys along with you? Wind Chimes alone is a one-man army!'
Towering Palace and Snow Eagle Group had thought that they had an advantage in numbers, but suddenly, they understood the true meaning behind what Silver Wolf meant when he said a fair competition and that their weapons were blind. The advantage that either of the large groups had was gone in an instant.
"Brother Vast Heaven, are you interested in fighting against me?"
Everyone's gazes returned to Vast Heaven. They wanted to see a fight between two top-class martial artists.
Vast Heaven scowled, feeling the difficulty of trying to get out of his predicament.
He had promised Momo a fight because he had an advantage, but he was not very confident in his ability to deal with Silver Wolf.
But he had promised Momo a fight very readily moments earlier. If he refused one now, he might turn into a laughing stock for the heroes of the world!
Just when he was about to brace himself and accept the challenge, a familiar voice suddenly spoke like a warning bell. Everyone heard it at the same time.
"Silver Wolf, you'll have plenty of chances to challenge Vast Heaven in the future. The quest this time takes priority. We shouldn't waste time."
When those words were spoken, besides Vast Heaven shuddering and putting on a shocked as well as surprised expression, there was also someone from Snow Eagle Group who had an incredibly shocked expression. He looked at the crowd in disbelief.
The others all had lost looks on their faces.
'Who came over this time?
'He called Silver Wolf and Vast Heaven by their names, and he even spoke in an imperative manner... '
When everyone turned their heads around, they saw a person with a Bamboo Hat on his head and handwoven clothes. Many in the crowd had seen him walking among them.
However, those who saw him before had paid him no attention. Yet that person gave off a rather relaxed air that belonged to elites as he walked in a calm manner in front of the two groups. Even the handwoven clothes gave him an unfathomable presence.
"So... you're here as well."
Vast Heaven had subconsciously softened his tone and bearing, and it left the people in the area dumbfounded.
"We came here for a quest in Sky Demon Sect, so I won't be able to chat with you, Brother Vast Heaven. I'm truly regretful for making all of you run here in vain, but we also came from afar, so I can only apologize to you."
Even though he said those words very gently, there was a very distinct determination in his voice.
Vast Heaven laughed heartily and placed his fist in his palm."Got it. You're a busy person. If that's the case, we can only give up on our quest today. See you."
"Sorry for not sending you off."
When the people watching saw how readily Vast Heaven left, they were even more curious about the mysterious player's identity.
Over at Snow Eagle Group's side, the man with Nation Protecting Divine Sword spoke to his group members softly, and their pupils shrank a little.
Then, a few messages were written swiftly, and the people from Snow Eagle Group rushed out one after another from Sky Demon Sect...
