Clang!
When the door to the meeting hall was shut, only the two of them were left in the hall. Happy opened his eyes and calmly tapped his chair a few times.
Thud, thud!
The rhythmic tapping seemed to have triggered some sort of mechanism, and suddenly, the sound of springs entered their ears.
One Emperor finally stopped stroking his sword. He stared at the armored walls that were several inches thick, and they came crashing down against the doors and windows.
Boom!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
It was as if a domino effect had been activated. The armored walls came crashing down one after another, and they instantly sealed off the doors and windows. In the blink of an eye, the entire meeting hall turned into a metal fortress with a tight defense.
"…"
One Emperor frowned when he faced this sudden change. His gaze landed on Happy's face. "There's no longer anything that can threaten you in the Chinese server. There's no need for you to be so secretive about anything, right?"
Happy had suddenly caused such a huge ruckus that the atmosphere in the hall became incredibly tense. Even One Emperor could no longer remain calm. He could not help but have surprise appear on his face.
"Of course there's no need for us to keep our conversation a secret."
While Happy spoke, he stood up and walked into the hall. "Fighting against you has always been my wish for many years, but we both had our qualms when we were in Wind Assault Tower's sect prison, and neither of us used our full strength. Since we still have some free time now, why don't you let me witness your eleventh and twelfth slashes?"
"I see."
One Emperor's eyes lit up.
One Emperor smiled faintly and stood up with his sword in a very straightforward manner. At the moment he held his weapon, a sword will that surged into the sky instantly added a chill to the rather empty hall.
One Emperor's voice echoed in the hall like a buzz.
"Even though I know that I'm no longer your opponent, I'm curious as well. I want to know just how much of your strength I can force out right now." Before he finished speaking, he saw Happy bring out Golden Scale Divine Sword from his Universe Bag. It shone with a faint golden halo, and his expression relaxed. In truth, he had been a little worried that Happy would bring out Recondite Steel Heavy Sword just now.
When he heard this, Happy smiled faintly and answered, "You praise me too much.
When I fought against Evil Emperor, I only managed to win by a hair's breadth because I was a little more tanky. But Evil Emperor didn't lose to me, he lost to himself! In truth, as long as he could remain calm, I wouldn't be able to do anything to him. Unfortunately, he revealed an opening himself. "
When he reached the end of his sentence, Happy sighed.
"Even though I was the one who forced him to reveal his weakness, the main reason is because Evil Emperor didn't bring out his full strength and treat me as a powerful enemy."
When One Emperor heard Happy's calm and humble words, he did not say anything to interrupt him, and neither did he say anything to flatter him. He just stood in front of him indifferently and watched Happy defend himself calmly.
"If he had treated me as a powerful opponent like you right from the start, he wouldn't have lost so badly."
Happy did not mind One Emperor's indifference and silence. "In truth, even I was surprised that I managed to kill Evil Emperor twice. Right from the start, my goal was just to use my full strength to hold him back, but Evil Emperor is different. To maintain his prestige as the strongest player in the world, his requirements for himself are too harsh. He always hopes that he can use the most thunderous and shocking advantage to crush me and kill me instantly."
"…"
One Emperor could understand that.
In fact, this was also his opinion.
Evil Emperor's strength was still above Happy's, and he had a very clear advantage, but Evil Emperor ignored the details and wanted to get rid of Happy in the shortest amount of time possible. In the end, Happy managed to turn the tables a few times and caused Wild Wolves and Class One Hall to be completely destroyed in the Chinese server.
"Evil Emperor has indeed lost to himself. He cares too much about his reputation and the fact that you were in a coma for one and a half years." One Emperor finally spoke, and his tone was filled with a myriad of emotions. At the same time, he stared into Happy's eyes seriously.
"Just a second ago, I always thought that you didn't have the strength and right to become the strongest in the world, and that the person who created you is Evil Emperor, but I didn't expect that you would be able to see everything clearly. Now, I'm going to overturn my own conclusion! Even if you're not the strongest in the world right now, sooner or later, that position will be yours. "
When One Emperor praised him in front of him, Happy showed a rare bashfulness.
"You don't have to care about my pride. You told me in the past that once you get rid of Class One Hall and force Wild Wolves to retreat, you will leave Lovely Land. That's why we're just friends. I also know that being a vice sect master won't be able to bind your heart."
"…"
One Emperor instantly fell silent. He was silent for a few seconds before he spoke again. "I've suddenly changed my mind."
"Why?"
"Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?" One Emperor changed the topic, which was a rare sight for him. He stared into Happy's eyes with an underlying meaning behind his words.
Happy could not help but quirk his eyebrows.
"Why would the strongest swordsman in the Chinese server lie?" His tone was filled with shock.
One Emperor ignored Happy's teasing.
"The lie is that I suddenly don't want to leave Lovely Land, and I want to continue. The truth is that I don't want the Chinese server to descend into chaos again and give Wild Wolves a chance to take advantage of us."
"Oh?"
A hint of a smile appeared on Happy's face. "Why do you say that?"
One Emperor did not immediately answer Happy's question. Instead, he stared at the calm smile on Happy's face and shook his head slowly.
"Phantasmal Shadow is right. You're indeed born to be a king. You know what I meant just now, and you also know that I won't leave Lovely Land. That's why you're not worried about mentioning the promise we made in the past in front of me."
"I see, so Phantasmal Shadow told you."
When Happy remembered that woman's intellect did not lose to Dream Clouds, he finally understood why One Emperor would say those astonishing words just now.
Before this, One Emperor had always been a lone and arrogant swordsman. He was a matchless elite who was not controlled by anyone and had no ties to him.
It was impossible for One Emperor to be interested in the benefits of sects, but just now, he had mentioned the greatest threat in the Chinese server, and it was very unlike One Emperor's style.
"What else did Phantasmal Shadow tell you?"
As he stared at Happy's calm face, One Emperor suddenly felt that this person was indeed just as Phantasmal Shadow said. He had become even more unfathomable.
"The reason why you suddenly stopped Lovely Land's expansion and stopped controlling all the resource points to the south of Changjiang is because of your past relationship with them.
"Right now, Lovely Land is facing three fatal threats!
"First, even if Class One Hall and Blood Alliance disappear, the members of these sects will not disappear just like that. Instead, they will flow into the other sects and become their blood. If Lovely Land controls all the resource points in the Chinese server, it will definitely cause all the sects to be displeased.
"The second threat is Wind Assault Tower!"
Happy's expression changed slightly.
One Emperor's tone did not change.
"No matter what, Wind Assault Tower was once a top-class force of power with the greatest popularity in the Chinese server. Even though its reputation has been greatly reduced right now, no matter what, it has accumulated a great amount of capital and foundation in the Chinese server, and it hasn't been in a state of depression for long. Once we get rid of the problem of Class One Hall, the people from Wind Assault Tower will definitely miss the time when they had branches all over the world, and it will be inevitable that they will think that Lovely Land has gotten rich from the disaster of the country."
"Perhaps this statement is a little too serious, but it's true that Wind Assault Tower will be able to calm down for a period of time because of chaos. Right now, Lovely Land has given up all the resources to the south of Changjiang, and Wind Assault Tower will be able to calm down for a period of time. Lovely Land will also have a period of time to reorganize itself and have a buffer period because of this. If you didn't stop them, perhaps Wind Assault Tower and Lovely Land's conflict would have already started."
"As expected of the best actress."
When he heard this, Happy's expression finally changed slightly.
As someone involved in the situation, he could tell this because he could not find many people he could use in Lovely Land, and they could not take care of this huge mess.
Phantasmal Shadow, as the second authority, was able to see through the fog. She was definitely someone with foresight and a deep mind.
"What about the other hidden danger?"
Happy hesitated for a few seconds before he looked up and asked One Emperor about the final problem Lovely Land faced.
"Dream Clouds."
One Emperor stared into Happy's eyes.
'What a pity.'
This time, he still did not see any surprise in Happy's eyes. It seemed that Happy had thought of the same thing as Phantasmal Shadow.
'I knew it.'
This time, Happy did not ask for the reason. Instead, he nodded with great sentiments. "As expected, Phantasmal Shadow thought about it as well. Since Dream Clouds was able to hide the information about the twelve sects in Beijing so well and not reveal even a single flaw over the past five years, it means that the foundation of strength she has accumulated far surpasses that of Wind Assault Tower and our imaginations. Class One Hall won't be destroyed so easily."
"Phantasmal Shadow said the same thing." One Emperor flicked the three-foot-long blade in his hand in resignation. "But the outside world knows how pathetic Class One Hall is right now. Practically all their branches have been destroyed, and their one million members have been reduced to less than one hundred thousand. With you serving as garrison in the Chinese server, Class One Hall shouldn't have the chance to rise from the ashes."
"Beyond the borders."
Happy uttered these two words faintly.
Right now, there was no longer a place for Class One Hall to stand in the Chinese server. Class One Hall could only develop outside the borders, but the borders were Wild Wolves' world, and it was not a problem for them to find a place to settle down.
One Emperor smiled wanly again.
"You're thinking of the same thing again. I now completely believe that you're indeed the same type of person as Phantasmal Shadow. Looks like Dream Clouds did not lose in vain this time!"
Dream Clouds could be proud of herself for losing to an alliance of two people who were at the same level as her when she fought against them alone.
Happy smiled.
"Phantasmal Shadow told you all these things. Looks like your relationship is just as Wandering Know-it-all said. You have a good impression of each other."
One Emperor was just about to speak when he heard Happy's words. He instantly had the urge to cough, and he said in vexation, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"…"
Happy smiled and did not say anything else.
It was indeed more suitable for One Emperor to speak up than Phantasmal Shadow to speak up. Besides, Phantasmal Shadow should have the intention to use One Emperor to keep Happy in check.
Right now, Lovely Land's influence was already so great that Phantasmal Shadow could not ignore it, and neither could she not have any thoughts about it.
Happy's lax management of Lovely Land was very appropriate, and he believed that Lovely Land would soon be able to officially enter the right track and turn the strength of one million people into a foundation of strength. Then, they would truly have the strength to defend the Chinese server. If a crucial person like One Emperor stayed in Lovely Land, Lovely Land would definitely be able to maintain a good relationship with Wind Assault Tower.
