The meeting location for Phantasmal Shadow and the others would forever be at Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion!

Over the past half a month, Wandering Know-it-all and Phantasmal Shadow seldom slept. One of them was worried that Dream Clouds would mobilize a large number of elites south at any time and sweep down Wind Assault Tower’s foundation. The other was worried that if she was gone for too long, Wind Assault Tower might descend into an even more dangerous and passive situation, and their situation was already very worrisome right now.

As for One Emperor, he seldom appeared in Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion.

One Emperor was the only top-class elite to whom Class One Hall could not restrain and could not fight head-on. If they fought against One Emperor seriously, they would not be able to withstand his attacks, and they would suffer an unbearable loss.

Phantasmal Shadow and Wandering Know-it-all could not counterattack Class One Hall during this period of time, and they could only have One Emperor continue maintaining the fragile morale among the Wind Assault Tower and protect the last shred of dignity within the Iron Triangle Alliance.


It has been half a month!



From now on, Evil Emperor might arrive at any point of the Chinese server at any moment.


Wandering Know-it-all’s tone was solemn.


Whoosh…


Phantasmal Shadow had originally been very fearful of Evil Emperor’s arrival. At that moment, when she heard the news, for some strange reason, she sighed in relief, and she said in a tone that made her sound as if she had been released from a burden,
The day has finally arrived.


Wandering Know-it-all cast a deep, understanding glance at Phantasmal Shadow.
Tower Master Shadow, you’ve suffered over this period of time. But you’ll have to endure even more over the next period of time. Evil Emperor and Class One Hall will work together, and they will do so in a manner that the Chinese players have never personally seen. We’ll be exposed to the greatest level of danger.


Phantasmal Shadow had her lips twitch in anguish. She sighed.
I know. During the first few hours Evil Emperor arrives in the Chinese server, there’s a huge possibility that we won’t even be able to protect our headquarters in Beijing. In truth, ten days ago, I’ve already been prepared for the worst, but I believe that the Chinese players will not make me disappointed.


Wandering Know-it-all’s expression became stern.
True. Even though Dream Clouds is strong and could deceive the world, once Evil Emperor shows up, the truth about Class One Hall working together with Wild Wolves and betraying the Chinese server will be set in stone! By then, even if Dream Clouds has controlled the entire area nother of Changjiang, we will have a chance to fight back sooner or later.


He said this in a relaxed tone, but both knew just how terrible their fate would be right now and in the period of time in the future.

These two had already thought of the worst possible outcome and made plans for it.

They were going to force the Chinese server into a desperate situation so that they would fight with everything they had.

Of course, it was not as if the Iron Triangle Alliance had no hope of winning at all.

After all, they had three great advantages over here.

One was Wind Assault Tower, a sect which was once known as the strongest sect in the Chinese server with the greatest foundation of strength and had more than one million members. Even though a lot of members had left during this period of time, those who stayed had their determination become even stronger, and when they gathered together, their strength would be even more terrifying.

The second was Wandering Know-it-all.

Even though he did not possess any impressive strength, over the past five or so years, Wandering Know-it-all’s status had already transcended the game, and he had also formed many good relations with his Universe Secrets Inkstone, which allowed him to learn of everything in the world. Regardless of where it was in the Chinese server, many of the sects and martial artists greatly respected Wandering Know-it-all.

During this time, Wind Assault Tower had run into danger, and Class One Hall rose to power to display strength great enough for them to control the entire northern region, but these people lacked a reason which could allow them to help Wandering Know-it-all.

They did not have concrete evidence and could only suspect Class One Hall. Those two factors, along with Wind Assault Tower’s situation, caused this force to not be strong enough for them to throw all caution to the wind and stand beside Wandering Know-it-all.

But Wandering Know-it-all still contacted many of the factions of power during this period of time, and he gained a promise from them. When proof that Class One Hall was working with Evil Emperor came to light, Wandering Know-it-all hoped that they could provide reinforcement at the shortest amount of time possible and fight for the future of the Chinese server.

The Chinese world of martial artists and fighting for a righteous cause was enough to make everyone tempted.

One Emperor was also an important factor for the Iron Triangle Alliance in fighting against Evil Emperor.

One Emperor had egressed this time because he had understood the twelfth slash within Fatal Thirteen Swords. His strength had become much greater than it was one year ago. If there was someone who was publicly acknowledged to be able to hold back Evil Emperor and threaten him, then it would definitely be One Emperor.

The trio were now waiting for a chance.

They were waiting for the most dangerous moment to come, and they were also waiting to seize that moment to attack!

If they could figure out when Evil Emperor would arrive before he actually and confirm that Evil Emperor did have connections to Class One Hall as well as react to it, then with the power from the forces in the Chinese server, they would still have some chance in destroying Dream Clouds and Evil Emperor’s ambitions. They could even save Wind Assault Tower.

But if they could not seize it, the situation would progress in the worst possible way.

They would lose Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters, lose Beijing, and lose the entire north. Then, they would have to fight against Wild Wolves led by Evil Emperor as well as Class One Hall and her allies in the worst possible environment in the south.


…Master.


Just when Wandering Know-it-all and Phantasmal Shadow were prepared for battle, Wind Chimes suddenly strode in and attracted their attention.


Did you discover something?



That’s right. My junior brother who’s in charge of monitoring Class One Hall’s Elder Council just discovered that quite a number of people were gathering at Class One Hall’s headquarters.
Wind Chimes’ voice was incredibly clear.


Since Evil Emperor is about to enter the Chinese server, Dream Clouds might be thinking about giving them instructions beforehand.


Though he said those words, Wandering Know-it-all still noticed that something was at foot. He brought out his Universe Secrets Inkstone, and under Phantasmal Shadow and Wind Chimes’ gazes, placed it on the table before he gently swiped at it.

The divination strength in Universe Secrets Inkstone was great, and it could also do readings very quickly. In an instant, Wandering Know-it-all could see through the secrets in the universe. Hence, in just one moment, all the current locations of Class One Hall’s elders were displayed on Universe Secrets Inkstone.

Very soon, Wandering Know-it-all scowled.
Hmm? The situation isn’t very good. Class One Hall seems to have released an order for a mass mobilization!


Wind Chimes and Phantasmal Shadow said nothing, but their expressions changed at the same time.

Wandering Know-it-all quickly put in another group of people’s names in Universe Secrets Inkstone.

Then, he sucked in a deep breath and said clearly,
Aside from Class One Hall’s Elder Council, Blood Alliance’s Elder Hall and the aces of those twelve Beijing sects are all swiftly gathering near Wind Assault Tower! Some of the normal players are also quickly gathering there…


Whoosh!

Before Wandering Know-it-all could take any further action in finishing his reading, Phantasmal Shadow could already not stop herself from standing up, and without hesitation, she sent a letter to her right hand men.


Dream Clouds has taken action!


At the same time, Wind Chimes’ expression turned incredibly stern. She did not remain idle and sent a messenger pigeon to One Emperor and said,
One Emperor is still outside the city, and he might need nearly an hour before he can reach Beijing. I’ll notify him and tell him to come back quickly.


Once Phantasmal Shadow sent her letter, she already could not stop her desire to immediately leave Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion.


Why is Class One Hall attacking us right now? Could it be that Evil Emperor has already reached the Chinese server, or does Dream Clouds intend to attack Wind Assault Tower beforehand?


Wandering Know-it-all did not answer her immediately. Instead, he scowled and said with a grave expression,
Evil Emperor might have also arrived in the Chinese server ahead of schedule.



Impossible!
Phantasmal Shadow denied that possibility straightaway.


It’s not impossible.
Wandering Know-it-all quietly caressed the Universe Secrets Inkstone on the table while he said,
Ever since three years ago, Wild Wolves have been improving their sea routes continuously. Wild Wolves’ status has been increasing as well, and their speed in crossing the sea has been decreasing continuously. Last time, it took them one month to come here, and now, it’s half a month. I wouldn’t be surprised if Evil Emperor managed to shorten it by another one or two days.



Then, you’re saying that there is a possibility that Evil Emperor has already entered the Chinese server!
Phantasmal Shadow’s expression turned even darker.

She had been predicted that Wind Assault Tower’s survival will be at stake in the next two days, but she did not expect that their survival would be at risk so soon and so abruptly!


It’s not impossible. He’s already in Beijing.
Wandering Know-it-all cast a glance at the information on Universe Secrets Inkstone and smiled in anguish.


He’s already in Beijing?



That’s right. He’s already outside Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. If you go back right now, you should be in time to mobilize your forces—
Before Wandering Know-it-all could finish saying his words, Phantasmal Shadow had already suddenly vanished from the pavilion.


Tell One Emperor about Evil Emperor!



Got it!


Wind Chimes’ expression became stern, and she quickly released her second messenger pigeon.




Evil Emperor!


One Emperor, who had been galloping down the government-made road on his horse outside Beijing, had his expression turn incredibly solemn.

He originally thought that Evil Emperor would still need at least one day before he could enter the Chinese server. In fact, he had already been prepared to destroy another Class One Hall branch and destroy a bit of Class One Hall’s strength before he returned to Beijing to wait for Evil Emperor. He did not think that Evil Emperor would arrive faster than he thought.

He knew very clearly that without him, no one in Wind Assault Tower could stop Evil Emperor.

Wind Assault Tower was already at a disadvantage, and if they would not hold Evil Emperor and Class One Hall outside the headquarters, regardless of whether he could arrive in time or not, Wind Assault Tower would not be able to escape from the fate of being destroyed.


As expected, I stayed outside too long.


This is bad… Let’s hope he can stall for time a little…


While One Emperor mumbled to himself, he swung his whip madly, and his Hoof Shadow reached its maximum speed.



At the same time, Wandering Know-it-all quickly sent letters to the four Beijing leaders who seemed to believe in him.

Those four sects were not part of Dream Clouds’ forces.


Evil Emperor…


When one of the sect leaders received Wandering Know-it-all’s messenger pigeon, his expression instantly turned incredibly solemn. He repeatedly read Wandering Know-it-all’s letter, along with the terrifying name written on it. He sucked in a few breaths before he took one deep breath and sighed in resignation.


Wandering Know-it-all, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but Class One Hall has already deceived the whole world with their methods, and their strength is also incredibly great. Even if I promise to help Wind Assault Tower, I can’t sacrifice myself or Thousand Hands Sect’s thirty thousand members for it, unless Wind Assault Tower shows that they have the strength to fight against Class One Hall…


As he spoke, he quietly tore the letter in his hands into shreds.


Have someone come here.



Sect master?



Immediately have all the members who are online gather in Beijing!



What?



Stop daydreaming and carry out the order! Tell them that today is the day Thousand Hands Sect will either live or die! Have everyone immediately return to the headquarters. If they don’t come back in ten minutes, I will kick them out with no exception!


Thousand Hands Sect’s stern order caused the subordinates beside him to shudder.


Understood!


All four sects summoned their people to return to their headquarters at the same time, and they quickly had all their members come back. They did not immediately head forward to help Wind Assault Tower.



The situation outside Beijing was completely different.

Once they received Wandering Know-it-all’s notice, quite a number of sect masters quickly contacted each other, and groups of people swiftly gathered together with dusk providing cover for them.

However, this group of people were too far away from Beijing. They would need at least two hours before they could finish mobilization, march forward, and reach Beijing!

At this moment, Class One Hall, Blood Alliance, and the people from the twelve sects of Beijing had already caused Beijing to be in a great state of alarm. Hundreds of thousands of people had already gathered outside Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters.
