Chapter 779: Tolerate, Once Someone Has A Chance, He Will Showcase His Talents
The fight between One Emperor and the mysterious teenager spread through Beijing within a short period of time, and naturally, it caught Class One Hall’s attention. When Dream Clouds learned of the mysterious teenager’s shocking sword skills, she quickly set aside everything in her hands and had her subordinates gather all information about Ximen Chuixue and the mysterious teenager.
Even though Drifting Sword, who was the sect master of White Robe Sect, and Teacher, who was the vice sect master of Dragon Sect were currently the most important partners for Dream Clouds, they were weaker than One Emperor, and while it was not difficult for Class One Hall to fight against Mu Clan if they worked together, they were still lacking if she wanted to win against Happy, even if she had the heart to kill him!
But this mysterious teenager who appeared out of nowhere was completely different.
He managed to defeat One Emperor with one sword thrust, who was practically invincibility incarnate. This alone made Dream Clouds’ blood burn, and she wanted badly to immediately draw him into Class One Hall.
Class One Hall’s overall strength was absolutely not inferior to Mu Clan, regardless of whether it was money or elites. The only thing they lacked was a top-class fighter like Happy who could stand at the top of the Chinese world of martial artists!
The appearance of the mysterious teenager let Dream Clouds see a beacon of hope in fighting and challenging Mu Clan for the spot of the strongest sect!
“Have you found out the information about Ximen Chuixue’s disciple?”
Dream Clouds did not immediately head to Ximen Chuixue’s abode. Instead, she anxiously and eagerly looked forward to the information her subordinates gathered.
The few people in the hall were all core members of Class One Hall, and their strength was all at the level of Evil Wolf and Monk With Thick Eyebrows. When they heard her words, someone answered, “Beijing is our main camp, and we’ve collected all information that should be collected.”
“Tell me about his situation.” Dream Clouds was clearly a little impatient. She spoke very quickly.
That person nodded. “That alley is located in a very remote position. We still don’t know whether it’s Ximen Chuixue’s house, because no one has ever seen Ximen Chuixue inside. One Emperor should have gotten news that it is Ximen Chuixue’s house from somewhere else, and the fact that the mysterious teenager is Ximen Chuixue’s only disciple should not be fake.”
“Continue.”
The core member said slowly, “We found some information about the boy. Even though he usually keeps a low profile and doesn’t go out of the house most of the time, we still managed to get some clues from the internet. There are also a few people who know him in Beijing. The boy’s name is Responsible Hero. He has been in the game for quite some time, in fact, he had been playing for more than one year, and he belongs to the earliest group of people who joined the game.”
“Oh?” When she heard this, Dream Clouds could not help but frown. “How old is he?”
“Seventeen,” the Class One Hall member answered.
“Interesting.”
Dream Clouds’ expression was clearly not as relaxed as her tone. She pondered about it and said, “He’s young, and he has joined the game for more than one year. He has great skills with the sword, and it’s a little strange that he’s not famous at all.”
“I do have some information about that, but I don’t know whether it is true or not. I heard that Responsible Hero was pretty good during the first month he joined the game, and he can be considered as a great player who is very hardworking in Beijing, but when he coincidentally ran into a fortuitous encounter, which resulted in him obtaining a decent quest, he shared it with his friends, and he was killed five consecutive times by others.” The Class One Hall member explained.
“Five times?”
Dream Clouds and the others were shocked.
Dying five times was the same as having their abilities reduced to a cripple. They will need one month before they can recover completely, and during that period of time, they cannot do anything.
But the boy had actually not deleted his character and restarted.
“That’s right. Five times.”
That person’s tone was calm, but there was a faint hint of admiration in his voice. “I heard that he swore that he will definitely take revenge, and he will use this name to exact vengeance on those who set him up.”
“He has a taste for blood, but he’s not rational enough,” Dream Clouds commented quietly. Then, she seemed to have her curiosity sparked. “What happened after?”
“Those who set up Responsible Hero seem to know about his temper and abilities, and they will basically kill him once in a while so that he is further injured. It was very difficult for Responsible Hero to do anything during the half a month after he died.” When he said this, the Class One Hall member stopped talking for a while, but half a month later, Responsible Hero stopped going out of the city. His enemies searched for him for a month, and when they couldn’t find him, they stopped.”
“Are you saying that he has been bearing his grudge for a year?”
“That’s right.” The Class One Hall member nodded with a wan smile. “I don’t know whether this boy is really the vengeful type or whether the requirements for Ximen Chuixue’s legacy is too high, but he has rarely showed himself in Beijing over the past year.”
“But he will need money when he practices qi cultivation techniques and fights with his weapons. He can’t just be staying in the courtyard to train and not go out to earn money. Can it be that he has been relying on his qi cultivation technique all this while?”
“Perhaps.” The wan smile on the Class One Hall member’s face grew, along with his admiration. He said with a sigh, “But he did not indeed do that. He just went on training in the courtyard with his grudge brewing in him for a year.”
“That idiot… If he deleted his character and restarted the game, he would have taken his revenge a long time ago. But you just can’t predict the progression of events in the world. He actually managed to get Ximen Chuixue’s legacy, and I have to say, this is actually a blessing in disguise.” Dream Clouds, too, had a myriad of emotions reflected on her face.
“Responsible Hero… Since he’s a teenager, this will be easy.” She stopped talking for a moment. During that time, Dream Clouds’ lips curled up into a smile. “Have you found Responsible Hero’s enemies?”
“We have. Once those people recognized Responsible Hero, they were terrified. But I’ve already negotiated with them and told them not to leave Beijing,” that person quickly answered.
“Good job!”
Dream Clouds got up from her seat in gratification.
“Those normal sects… They want to take this amazing talent under their wing? They forget just how insignificant they are. Control those people. When it’s necessary, contact Responsible Hero and tell him that Class One Hall will provide him with the best environment and equipment as well as the conditions for him to take the title of the strongest in the Chinese world of martial artists. He can ask for any conditions he wants, and we will fulfill it for him to join our hall!”
As expected of the hall master of Class One Hall, her boldness when she made her offer was much greater compared to the other sects, making her much more reliable!
“Understood!”
The Class One Hall members looked at each other.
Even though the condition their hall master offered made them rather shocked, Class One Hall was at a critical stage, and they could understand why Dream Clouds reacted this way.
Mu Clan had two top-class fighters. One of them was Happy, and the other slightly weaker person was Silver Wolf. They had more than ten first-class fighters as well.
Meanwhile, Class One Hall did not have someone as strong as Happy. Barren Murderer was only slightly stronger than Silver Wolf, and if they could get the mysterious elite Responsible Hero to join Class One Hall, war in the Chinese world of martial artists will break out completely.
At that moment, a person walked into the hall with a majestic gait. It was Vice Hall Master Blood Robes, and his voice was grave.
“Hall master, Sky Penetrating Tower just sent news. They said that the fifth emergency war report has just been received. The Embroidered Uniform Guards have received quite a number of quests. Langye asked us to make preparations early on. There might be a dense wave of main quests that will pop up at the borders near the Mongolian Empire someday in the near future.”
Dream Clouds’ eyes lit up.
‘Our chance is here!’
