Dragon Gate Inn was famous in the Chinese server, because it was coincidentally located at the border between the borders of the Chinese server. It was connected to the trade route between the foreign countries and the Chinese server, and it was a place many merchants and wanderers had to pass through. At the same time, it was also a very famous place where quests were given out.
The players who passed by could get some quests from the coquettish and shrewd lady boss, Jin Xiangyu.
The players who played in the criminal world could get quests to gather raw materials. They had to kill the wanderers who passed by and sell them to the lady boss to make human meat buns.
The players from the righteous sects could get quests to fight against the Embroidered Uniform Guards from Cao Huai An, who stayed in the inn. They could even get quests to attack the special agents at the borders nearby.
But since yesterday, a new Dragon Gate Inn had appeared beside Dragon Gate Inn. The ruins of an inn that had been buried in the sand of the desert had appeared overnight. There was even a clear sign with words written on it. It had appeared less than one mile away from Dragon Gate Inn without any warning. Then, the number of merchants who rushed to Dragon Gate Inn increased by leaps and bounds. All of them fought to see the strange ruins that appeared in the sand.
It had also started since yesterday.
The merchants who came to the inn revealed the most information regarding the legend behind the new Dragon Gate Inn. It was the legend of a miraculous desert palace!
Silver Wolf brought Knife, Thunder, and Thunder with him. They walked past New Dragon Gate Inn while the sand danced in the air.
Bar went into the ruins of Dragon Gate Inn for a while before he quickly returned to the group. There was a hint of hesitation and surprise on his face.
When Silver Wolf saw it, the puzzlement in his heart increased.
"What news did you get?"
"There's nothing special."
Bar frowned and answered, "The people here are talking about the desert palace, and they seem to be telling the truth. Besides, aside from the trap masters, there are also a few rather famous players in the Chinese server. They seem to be searching for something, and they're in groups of three to five. They don't say a word. Big Brother Silver Wolf, the sudden appearance of the ruins of Dragon Gate Inn is definitely not a simple matter. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that we came out of the desert and attracted so many curious barbaric merchants?"
"Barbaric merchants?" Silver Wolf was stunned.
Bar nodded and quickly explained.
"Most of the people surrounding Dragon Gate Inn are barbaric merchants."
"How many of them are NPCs?"
Silver Wolf's eyebrows twitched. His tone changed, and he became slightly solemn.
“NPC？ I didn't see it, but by the looks of it, there are quite a lot of them, "Bar answered after he cast a glance at the ruins of Dragon Gate Inn in the distance.
Right after he finished speaking, Knife by the side spoke up.
"Big Brother Silver Wolf, there's a high chance that the legend about Dragon Gate Inn is true. There might really be treasures that can rival a country's wealth inside!"
"That's right! That's right. This time, the Sect Master sent us a voice transmission to deal with the Royal Army. Now that something like this has happened, what should we do? "Copper was somewhat tempted.
Silver Wolf cast the trio a glance. There was no way he would not know what they were thinking.
They had been in the game for a long time, and even though they had run into quite a number of quests, most of them did not manage to join them in time due to time constraints or because they were not strong enough. Right now, the four of them had trained hard for four days, and their martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds. Their strength had also increased by a large margin. Right now, since they had come to Dragon Gate Inn early and ran into this quest, there was a high possibility that they would have the chance to obtain the treasures inside.
They didn't want to miss it.
"The ruins won't run away. Besides, the Sect Master asked us to gather at Dragon Gate Inn. It's not far away from here. Let's finish what the Sect Master asked us to do first. We'll pay attention to the desert palace and see if we're lucky." When he said this, Silver Wolf stopped talking for a moment, and he could not help but say something baffling. "But I find it strange. When the Sect Master asked us to come over, the ruins of Dragon Gate Inn appeared. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"
"…"
Knife and the other two looked at each other at a loss, but they did not say anything.
To them, even though Happy was strong, the desert palace had nothing to do with him!
"If that's the case, let's hurry up …"
"Dragon Gate Inn is right in front of us!"
"Let's go!"
The group of four put down the veil over their Bamboo Hats and clamped down on their thighs. Their horses instantly charged forward, and they lifted the fluttering veil from the wooden pole in the distance.
Dragon Gate Inn!
…
"Neigh!"
Silver Wolf and his party blended into the stream of people coming and going. When they arrived outside Dragon Gate Inn, they soon noticed that the atmosphere was abnormal. They tugged at the reins and stopped.
The coquettish and shrewd owner of Dragon Gate Inn, Jin Xiangyu, might be dressed in a cotton dress, but it did not hide her beauty and charm. Not far away from the entrance was a swordsman who looked incredibly elegant. She eagerly sent him off, and with a reluctant look on her face, she handed the reins of her steed to that person in an obedient manner.
"Huaian."
"Thank you, owner."
Cao Huaian's expression was calm, but there was also a hint of unruliness in it. He cast a glance at the people behind him and said, "I'll be back soon. Keep an eye on our things."
Standing behind Cao Huaian was a handsome and fair swordsman. He was very displeased with Jin Xiangyu's attentive attitude. He turned his face to the side, and the disdain and impatience on his face was very clear.

When he heard Cao Huaian's instructions, the handsome and fair swordsman turned his head around.
"Don't worry."
Cao Huaian cast him a deep glance before he jumped on his horse. "Giddy-up!" He rode into the distance.
The handsome and fair swordsman stared at Cao Huaian's back for a long time before he averted his gaze. He cast a glance at Jin Xiangyu, snorted coldly, turned around, and walked into the inn.
Jin Xiangyu did not immediately enter. Instead, she redirected her gaze to the group of wanderers who were heading to the inn. She went up to them while swaying her hips in a very attentive manner.
"Dear customers, are you looking for a place to stay or a place to rest? That brat … Where did he go to slack off?! Hurry up and get out here to serve our customers! Ha! I'm not talking about you. Hurry up, come in. You can just bring your horses to the stable. We have good fodder. "
Jin Xiangyu welcomed the group of people into Dragon Gate Inn in a very familiar manner.
The three groups of people were Silver Wolf and his party, a group of wanderers in black with sabers, and a group of merchants!
Silver Wolf and his party behaved at ease and followed at the back of the group.
But Silver Wolf noticed that there was a rather large group of martial artists in black with sabers in the crowd. All of them had sharp gazes, and they guarded the old man and the young man with wary gazes. When they moved, they intentionally or otherwise kept a certain distance between the people who approached them.
The other group of people in the crowd was pushed to the side by this group of people.
When they saw this, Silver Wolf, Knife, and the other two exchanged an interesting glance. They did not say anything. Once they entered, they chose a rather remote corner and sat down.
There were quite a number of customers in the inn.
There were more than forty tables in the large hall on the first floor, but most of them were occupied. They drank or ate. Some of them were boisterously competing against each other, some were gentle and quiet, and some talked loudly about the business in the Chinese plains and West Region. In short, they were all people of all walks of life.
They entered the inn.
The wanderers in black with sabers were still very wary. When they saw the empty tables that were scattered on the ground, they went straight to the owner's wife and asked her to put the tables together.
"It's very troublesome to put tables together."
When she walked into the territory of her faction, Jin Xiangyu changed her feminine and timid demeanor when she was outside the inn. Instead, she gave off a shrewd and shrewd air. She tilted her head to the side and spread her arms in a very womanly manner. With her other hand, she twirled the ends of her hair, which had not been washed for a few days.
"This is the fee for your labor."
Jin Xiangyu was very satisfied with the silver taels that were worth one hundred taels of silver, and she was delighted. She put away the silver without batting an eyelid and winked at them. Then, she swayed her hips and walked away in a very seductive manner. "Look at how polite you are. We don't have enough people here. If you want to fight, do it yourselves. You can't let me do such heavy labor, right?"
Jin Xiangyu left to serve the other customers in satisfaction after she obtained the money.
However, the people in black with sabers did not seem to be bothered by the money, and they did not show any displeasure. Without another word, they sent two people to clear out a spot at the center of the inn and put the tables together.
Under countless complicated gazes in the inn, the group of people sat down with great wariness.
However, there were still four people who did not sit down. Each of them occupied a spot and guarded the four directions of the group. They stared at the customers in the four directions of the inn with intense gazes and sized them up.
"Embroidered Uniform Guards."
Knife cast them a glance before he looked away. Then, he dipped his finger in water and wrote three words on the table.
"How did you notice it?" "Are you saying that the plot has begun?"
Bar and Thunder put on surprised expressions at the same time. They did not quite believe it.
Even though they had heard about the conflict between Dragon Gate Inn and the forces of power from the imperial court, the current Dragon Gate Inn was clearly much more complicated than what they saw in the movies.
Right now, quite a number of people from all sorts of religions had already taken their seats in Dragon Gate Inn. There were quite a few groups of people who looked at them with hostile gazes. With the rumors from the desert palace, they could not be certain that the quest would be activated at this moment!
"Among the three of you, Knife is indeed the one with the best observation skills." Silver Wolf's evaluation indirectly confirmed Knife's previous words.
Knife grinned smugly. Then, when Bar and Thunder asked him about it, he answered, "Even though they aren't wearing the Embroidered Uniform of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, their steel sabers are all from the government. The other two who gave themselves away are the old man and the young man."
"Oh?"
"When I entered the door just now, I saw that these people's presences are very similar to the dogs of the government. And when the old man and the young man walk, they walk with the footsteps of a government official, and they're very relaxed. They're definitely officials of the imperial court with extraordinary status. They usually live like princes, and they won't be able to change that within a short period of time."
Bar and Thunder were instantly convinced that they were not as meticulous as Knife.
However, after Knife sent them an explanation, he frowned and looked around. "I remember that no one has been pushing for the plot in Dragon Gate Inn. Jin Xiangyu and Cao Huaian have always been distributing normal quests. Now that a plot has suddenly appeared, someone must have triggered it recently."
"That's right."
Silver Wolf nodded slowly with a solemn expression. "The plot has just been pushed out, but it's different from the plot in the movies and novels. The person who triggered the quest might be in Dragon Gate Inn as well."
Once he said that, the trio sucked in a sharp breath and looked around without batting an eyelid.
In the end, Silver Wolf's gaze focused on the old man and the young man who had been sitting cross-legged at the table since a long time ago.
The young man was about eighteen years old. He had an elegant presence, as if he was a disciple from an aristocratic family. An old man with an average face stood half a step behind him. His qi realm was great, his breathing was steady, and his gaze was sharp.
Knife and the others also noticed this person. They sucked in sharp breaths, and shock appeared on their faces.
