The journey from Henan's Mount Song to Beijing only took one day and one night. With the Hoof Shadow's speed, they only needed half a day to finish it.
Now!
There were already quite a number of players who had Hoof Shadows. Even though it was a symbol of nobility, it was no longer as eye-catching as before. Perhaps it was because people were already used to it.
But …
Beijing was not a normal city. Only those with official titles could enter the city without getting down from their horses. Wanderers could not act as they pleased in Beijing either.
After all!
Under the emperor's rule, the soldiers were superior to others. The group of soldiers guarding the city gate were all armored soldiers in Life and Death Realm. The ones guarding the city gate were also Moksha Realm elites. Even though it was not easy to capture them, it was still very easy to stall for time and lure over countless elites in Beijing.
"Get down!"
Before the guard could speak, he had already landed on the ground. He put away his Hoof Shadow into his Horse Plate, and as if he was a wanderer who often wandered around Beijing, he cleared the stage with a calm expression and entered the city.
The streets in Beijing were much wider than in normal cities, and they were also orderly. Even though there was a lot of people, due to the constant patrolling guards intimidating them, they did not notice any players who set up stalls casually in the city. Hence, the shops in the city flourished. There was an endless stream of people, and it was a prosperous scene.
Players could often be seen on the streets carrying weapons or equipment that shone with a tri-colored light. They moved about in a hurry. The popularity of echelons was even higher in this place.
Besides …
Most of the players had the same emblems on their chests.
Class One Hall with a bloody arrow.
The tyrant of the north!
There was naturally no need to mention Class One Hall's strength and wealth.
They claimed to have more than sixty thousand Life and Death Realm elites, and their strength surpassed countless sects. They were a giant countless people looked up to.
There were also two extraordinary sects in Beijing.
Even though they could not compare to Class One Hall, their strength and influence in Beijing might not be weaker than Class One Hall's.
One of them was Sky Penetrating Tower.
Tower Master Langye!
He was an elite from the Embroidered Uniform Guards who had carried out many secret missions from the imperial court. Right now, he had received quite a lot of praise from the imperial court, especially when he saved the imperial envoy. The imperial court made an exception and promoted him to the position of vice commander of one of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. He had the right to mobilize Embroidered Uniform Guards to capture criminals in the world of martial artists. At the same time, he also had the right to release criminals.
It was said that many of the high-ranking criminals in the Embroidered Uniform Guards' prison had been secretly released to Sky Penetrating Tower!
Other gangs needed to work hard and mobilize a large number of people to capture criminals and fill up the gang prison, but Langye could easily use his authority to fill up his own gang prison.
Also, going up against Sky Penetrating Tower was the same as going up against the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Langye was protected no matter which city he went to, and he had even promoted a group of sect higher-ups under him. Once these people were attacked in the city, it did not matter whether they were in the headquarters of the sect, which was a martial arts zone or not, the Embroidered Uniform Guards in the city would attack without hesitation. Six Doors and Eastern Depot would also attack. Hence, there were even rumors that Sky Penetrating Tower was the sect that players could not provoke, and there was a possibility that Sky Penetrating Tower would become the fifth top-class sect after Mu Clan.
The other was Wind Assault Tower, which was created by Ancient Tomb Sect disciple Phantasmal Shadow, the second strongest player on the Phoenix Rank.
It was all thanks to Phantasmal Shadow's efforts that he was able to build a sect later on and stand out in Beijing.
The first day the gang was established.
Phantasmal Shadow issued a challenge to Dream Clouds.
With her perfect whip technique, she managed to suppress Dream Clouds' Divine Flames Skill. Both sides fought to a stalemate, and in the end, they ended up in a tie.
As for Towering Palace's Clear Music, she did not accept the challenge.
Then, Phantasmal Shadow, who rose to fame, shone brilliantly during the quest to attack Light Summit. Not only did she defeat Song QingShu, she also blocked an attack for Zhang Wuji and officially joined the ranks of the famous players in the game.
It was said that Phantasmal Shadow received guidance from Yang Xiao during the battle, and she obtained a whip technique manual from Ming Cult, which allowed her strength to improve again.
Wind Assault Tower naturally did not just have this much strength.
Aside from Phantasmal Shadow, she also gathered a group of extraordinary players under her. Among them, there were three people who were famous on the Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank. It was said that they were from the same company in the real world, but what was strange was that their colleagues in the same company actually had the chance to stay online for a long period of time, and all of them played the game really well. It made people wonder just what sort of company it was.
Of course, aside from the three great factions of power, there were also plenty of talented people in Beijing, such as Wandering Know-it-all. They were not people the factions of power could offend.
Happy entered Beijing.
He moved through the streets and alleys with ease before he entered the lavishly decorated Heaven Fragrant Tower!
It was one of the most luxurious restaurants in Beijing. Happy remembered that in his previous life, the people who could enter this place were all rich customers who could spend a lot of money in one go. They were real rich people, not just taels of silver crumbs. If the monthly gaming fee was three hundred, then the lowest fee for entering this place was the gaming fee for a month. If they could hire a few famous prostitutes to drink with them, they would have to pay three thousand taels of silver crumbs for fifteen minutes. The other entertainment items were even more expensive. There were sword dances, sleeve dances, zither skills, calligraphy, and painting. No matter what, it made people feel as if they had returned to ancient times. Each of them was worth a lot of money.
"An esteemed guest has arrived!"
The person waiting at the door was a beautiful woman in her thirties. She cast a coquettish glance at Happy, and her gaze landed on him. Her coquettish voice rose into the air.
"Jade Servant, bring the guest to the best VIP room in Heaven Fragrant Tower."
A fragrant wind welcomed him, and a beautiful and alluring woman lifted the bead curtain. She walked gracefully in front of Happy and curtsied respectfully. "Greetings, young master. Please come this way." Her pearls were round and smooth, and her voice was clear and pleasant to the ears. There was also a hint of sweetness to it, and it caused others to be unable to help themselves but have the urge to lift her oval face.
"…"
After all, Happy had seen plenty of such situations in his previous life. Besides, it had not been long since he parted with Zhou Zhiruo, so he had quite a bit of resistance toward the peerless beauties in the world of martial artists. He nodded and had Jade Servant lead the way while he stayed two steps behind. His expression was indifferent as he followed behind her at a moderate pace.
Truth be told.
He was not used to Wandering Know-it-all choosing to meet in such a high-profile place with so many people coming and going. Beijing was a place of trouble, after all.
But when he thought about it, it was the first time they met, and a place like Heaven Fragrant Tower was a little interesting. Wandering Know-it-all might have thought that it was his first time in Beijing, which was why he wanted to do some entertainment here.
'Oh well.
'Let's see how the richest person in the world intends to play.'
Happy followed behind the graceful Jade Servant at a moderate pace. He moved through the fragrant wind and entered a luxurious and graceful courtyard that looked like a palace.
Heaven Fragrant Tower!
When Wandering Know-it-all received the notification, he came to the door a long time ago.
He was dressed in plain white robes. There was a smile on his face as he stood calmly at the door. There were two beauties who could topple the nation standing by his sides. One of them had fair skin and a charming presence. The other was petite, exquisite, smart, and cute. She was even more alluring than Jade Servant, who led the way.
Happy cast a glance at them and smiled.
"Haha, as expected of the richest person in the world, Wandering Know-it-all. The two beauties of Heaven Fragrant Tower, Little Moon Immortal and Delicate Servant, were both taken by you.
