The eastern part of Gusu City was once a place where players seldom frequented. Yet with time, it now bustled with activity. Players with the emblem of Dragon Tiger Sect sewn on their chests could be seen everywhere, and all of them had their heads held high. They were in high spirits.
Most of these people came from a huge building with a mighty and majestic stone lion serving as its door guardian in the middle of the street. There were a few huge men in black standing next to it. Above their heads was a plate with three words written on it with a flourish—Dragon Tiger Sect! This was the headquarters of Gusu City’s strongest sect.
Compared to the high-spirited atmosphere among the disciples outside the sect, the atmosphere within the inner hall of the headquarters, which could only be accessed by the higher-ranked members, was incredibly dreary and still at that moment.
The one woman and two men who had nearly gotten into a conflict with Happy in Jade Gate Restaurant sat in the VIP seats i as they listened to Vice Sect Master Long Meng talk about what had happened.
Once Long Meng mentioned how Scholarly Immortal had vanished without a trace after he left Dragon Tiger Sect, the woman and two men did not show any obvious reactions. However, the man who sat at the top of the hall frowned. He shook his head slightly, but no one knew why he sighed.
The hall was silent then.
Long Meng, who had caused the deaths of the people from Dragon Tiger Sect and who had created a fearless and powerful enemy for himself, became even more anxious.
Even though he had already been rebuked sternly for making Scholarly Immortal, who was a powerful fighter in Gate Realm, leave the sect, what truly made him nervous was Happy, who had killed the bandit chief of Black Wind Mountain by himself.
He had seen Happy kill around twenty of their good fighters while being heavily injured. His skills with hidden weapons had already reached an unpredictable level. Hence, Long Meng did not dare to hide anything from his sect master. Not only did he tell the Blue-robed Noble Sword User’s potential strength, but also exaggerated Happy’s threat to Dragon Tiger Sect.
I was indeed in the wrong this time. I should not have been greedy about the treasures of Black Wind Mountain, but I have already made the mistake. Happy must surely hate Dragon Tiger Sect to the core right now. Sect master, for Dragon Tiger Sect’s reputation and our future development, we must get rid of Blue-robed Noble Sword User, or else our prestige will be ruined!
When he said this, Long Meng gritted his teeth. The murderous intent in his eyes was great, and he also had a resolute look in his eyes.
The sect master did not speak. His name was Inquire the Dragon, and in the real world, he was a coal seller who had some money. The people called him Nine-tattooed Dragon. He worked through legal and illegal means, and he had some abilities. The reason he played World of Martial Arts was because his younger sister had persuaded him to do so.
Once he started it, he saw the huge potential and business opportunity hidden in the game, which was why he gathered a group of people to join him. He intended to gain a dominant position in the game and earn money through it.
With his brothers’ gifts, he had reached Gate Realm without any problems, though there was never a doubt that he would. He then gathered together ten thousand taels of silver crumbs to create the strongest sect in Gusu City.
But what he did not expect was that various problems would continuously appear when Dragon Tiger Sect was preparing to use all their manpower to spread their name and occupy resources!
The lackeys of Dragon Tiger Sect used the might of their strongest sect to get themselves quite a number of enemies. In just a few days, Dragon Tiger Sect became a terrifying beast for many players. It was pushed to the eye of the storm and entered a precarious situation.
Scholarly Immortal originally managed all this and modulated the conflict between them and the other players. Things had then slowly become better.
However, Nine-tattooed Dragon had not expected that the huge group led by two of Dragon Tiger Sect’s vice sect masters would be unable to get rid of Blue-robed Noble Sword User—a player whom he had never paid attention to. And if that wasn’t enough, around twenty of their brothers had died because of this.
What pained him most was that his right hand man, Scholarly Immortal, who had given a lot of good suggestions for the sect, had left Dragon Tiger Sect without hesitation…
The matter about the Blue-robed Noble Sword User defeating Black Wind Mountain and many of their brothers had also spread around. Soon, the entire city would know of it.
With the disasters that came one after another, Nine-tattooed Dragon had to summon his younger sister, who had spawned in Hangzhou at the start of the game.
Sister, tell me, what should I do now?
The Blue-robed Noble Sword User’s strength exceeded what Nine-tattooed Dragon understood. He had trained diligently and gathered all the information regarding World of Martial Arts over the past two months and he also knew just how strong Black Wind Mountain’s bandit chief was. With those facts placed right before his eyes, he simply could not imagine how a player who had just reached Gate Realm could fight head on with the bandit chief and win.
Nine-tattooed Dragon could only ask for help from his younger sister!
Fortunately, she had extraordinary Comprehension and had been taken in by one of the four great aristocratic families—Nangong Clan. Her information network and knowledge was certainly above his.
When she sensed the gazes of the people in the hall on her, the beautiful girl under the veil gently put down the teacup in her hand. Until then, she still had not taken off the veil over her face. Besides a faint air of mysteriousness and allure, there was also a hint of cunning and wisdom in her charming eyes. She thought for a few seconds before she tapped her lips lightly.
Big brother, don’t be in a hurry. I’ve already thought about this. There are three ways to deal with the Blue-robed Noble Sword User, and they are divided into the best, moderate, and worst.
Oh.
When Inquire the Dragon heard this, he was stunned.
Let’s hear it.
As the saying goes, ‘friendships are formed after a fight.’ If Dragon Tiger Sect is willing to take the initiative to resolve this matter, a famous fighter like the Blue-robed Noble Sword User would definitely appreciate it. However, Vice Sect Master Long might have to suffer some humiliation for this.
When she finished speaking, the expression of Long Meng, who had longed to hear the beautiful woman under the veil tell him how to deal with Happy, froze!
He had to apologize to Happy?
Then he would no longer have any prestige in the eyes of the people of Dragon Tiger Sect!
Inquire the Dragon cast a glance at Long Meng, who had an unpleasant expression, and asked faintly,
What about the moderate plan?
For a businessman who had people at his beck and call in the real world to have around a dozen people working for him die and asking his left hand man to go and apologize to the person who did it would be a little cowardly of him.
When she saw that her older brother did not seem to be willing to be humble in this matter, the beautiful woman under the veil, who knew her brother’s temper very well, sighed gently.
The moderate plan would be to not do anything. We should focus on developing Dragon Tiger Sect with all our strength and treat this matter like it never happened.
That won’t do!
This time, it was clear that both Inquire the Dragon and Long Meng could not accept her suggestion.
If I don’t take care of this matter, how am I supposed to face the brothers who died?
Yes. At that time, how will the outside world look at our sect?
The beautiful woman under the veil did not say anything. She only sighed again.
We can use money to placate those who suffered losses to their interests, but if you must do something, then we can only use the worst plan. You must think carefully. If you become mortal enemies with the future star of Murong Clan, this will become the greatest obstacle for the development of Dragon Tiger Sect in the future.
Tell us what we should do,
Inquire the Dragon said with grim determination.
His gaze gradually turned sharp and fierce. The domineering presence of the first sect master was in full display.
If we can’t even handle a powerful fighter, then how can I manage Dragon Tiger Sect in the future? How can I gain a standing in the game?!
When she saw her brother showing the domineering air and determination he had in reality, the beautiful woman under the veil showed a relieved smile for the first time. Her tone changed.
You’re finally back to the older brother I know! Since you want to get rid of him, then kill him in one strike! From now on, have someone pay attention to Happy’s actions. Once the time is ripe, kill him in one shot.
When she said this, the beautiful woman under the veil paused for a moment. Her bright eyes landed on the two young men beside her.
I might have to trouble the two of you to help me in this matter, senior brothers.
You’re being too courteous, junior sister.
He just knows how to use hidden weapons; it’s nothing. We have a few powerful fighters in Hangzhou who know how to use hidden weapons as well. He might be good, but it’s not as if we don’t have any way to handle him.
That’s right! I already found that brat an eyesore when we were in Jade Gate Restaurant. Let’s go and teach him the real meaning behind the saying, ‘There is always someone better than you!’
