The order from the Murong Clan's grand elder caused Happy to feel incredibly gloomy, but he was not someone who was easy to deal with. A thought appeared in his head. "But I'm now a famous person in the world of martial artists. If I show up and openly snatch the items from Eunuch Yang's Warehouse, the imperial court will soon be able to guess that the Murong Clan is up to no good."
Right when he finished speaking, a cold snort came from the cabin.
"And to think that the lass kept praising you for being smart. I think you're as stupid as a donkey. Can't you change your attire and act with a mask on?"
"… Mask?"
"That's right. Also, don't use the Murong Clan's martial arts. Don't use Shifting Stars and Joined Finger."
"…"
He rolled his eyes, and he had a strong urge to slap himself in the face!
"Hurry up and go. This time, you have to bring me at least sixteen treasure chests, or else, when you come back, just obediently wait for your punishment." The grand elder's words made Happy wonder whether the person before him was Murong Bo, that old bastard.
"Ding!
The system gave a notification.
"Accept the quest from your clan. Disguise yourself and head to the port. Plunder the convoy escorted by the marshal's elite heavy-armored cavaliers. Bring the resources you intercepted to the ship and sink it near Western Prison Island.
"During the quest, you are not allowed to use any of the Murong Clan's martial arts! All enemies you fight against will not be provided with any information about their identities.
"You have to obtain at least sixteen treasure chests to complete the quest! (Only sixteen treasure chests can be stored in one ship.)
"If you fail the quest, one of the Murong Clan's ultimate martial arts will be destroyed."
'Damn it!'
For the first time in his life, Happy felt that joining the Murong Clan was a huge mistake. Those old monsters did not respect their elders and thought about unrealistic things all day long. Sooner or later, they would get themselves into a great crime where they would have their entire families killed.
Right then, Happy only hoped that the Murong Clan would not give him a quest to destroy the imperial court and usurp the throne. That would be a huge headache.
"Right now, I can only take it one step at a time."
Once the grand elder left, Happy sighed. His gaze landed on the noisy port in the distance. "He actually managed to throw the heavy-armored cavaliers' killing formation into disorder. Looks like this should be the work of a famous player on the ranking board."
"It shouldn't be too much for me to only take one-fifth of the share, right?"
While he looked away and changed his attire, he mumbled to himself.
However, when the boat he was in drifted near the port by the river, he saw the messy and complicated scene around the port, and he could not help but be dumbfounded.
So many familiar faces!
Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, Monk with Thick Eyebrows, Evil Wolf, Musical Note, Clear Music, Vast Heaven, Grim Green, Shangguan Lian, Hai Dongqing … There were also more than ten Class One Hall and Towering Palace elites standing at the port.
But what shocked him the most was the man in black standing at the port.
Just like him, he was dressed in a black shirt and pants, and his face was also covered with a mask. He was twisting his head and staring at him with a strange expression.
They wore the same clothes …
This was Happy's first reaction. He coughed a little awkwardly, and his gaze quickly swept through the port before it landed on Grim Green and Vast Heaven, who looked rather pathetic.
From Happy's angle, a rather intense battle had already happened at the port. More than ten empty carts were covered in sword marks, and the ground was full of holes. There were also signs of sword qi sweeping through the area.
Even the body of the black-clothed man had several cuts on it …
Dream Clouds and her group stared at the masked man in black with solemn gazes. The atmosphere was unprecedentedly solemn.
Dream Clouds only cast a glance at the second man in black who approached them on the boat. Based on the mysterious man in black's reaction, she looked away.
She could tell.
The two men in black should not be from the same group.
Since they were not from the same group, then this small fry who had rented a boat from somewhere would naturally not attract too much attention from Dream Clouds.
"My friend, Class One Hall has spent a lot of time and effort for Eunuch Yang's Warehouse. We've also sacrificed quite a number of our brothers to get to where we are now. If you want to take all of it with just one sentence, it's not right."
She stopped talking for a moment before Dream Clouds suggested, "How about this?
We'll split the items into three portions. You can take thirty, and Towering Palace and I will take fifty. "
"…"
Even though Happy did not understand the situation at the port, based on the group's positions and postures as well as Dream Clouds' words, he quickly understood some things.
Dream Clouds seemed to be discussing with the man in black how to split the eighty treasure chests from Eunuch Yang's Warehouse.
'Urk!
'Did I hear it wrong?'
Happy blinked in dumbfounded shock.
Dream Clouds was a woman who cared about gains and losses very much, but she had actually suggested letting the man in black get the majority of the treasure chests and then split the remaining fifty with Towering Palace.
Happy sucked in a deep breath and put away his playful attitude and unrestrained demeanor. His gaze focused a little, and he sized up the man in black who had looked away from the port.
He knew very well what sort of person Dream Clouds was.
It might be possible for Towering Palace, who was the local tyrant, to make Dream Clouds take a big step back, but a man in black who had popped out of nowhere and managed to do it alone was definitely not a simple person!
"I told you," the man in black said.
When Happy heard his hoarse voice, he frowned a little.
"If you have the ability, then fight against me. I'll turn around and leave. I won't take a single chest."
"Sir, are you that confident that you can take all the treasure chests alone?"
Musical Note was finally unable to hold herself back and asked.
At that moment, no one paid attention to the second man in black who had rowed his boat to the port.
Even though they were curious, it was clear that the man in black who had not said a single word or showed any expression was no different from weeds by the roadside in their eyes.
"I'm not taking them. I just want to see just how strong the elites from the so-called four top-class sects in the game are, and whether they're all just bragging."
The man in black stopped talking for a moment. He ignored the slightly angry faces of the people across him and chuckled softly.
"Reality has proven that the players at the top of the Dragon Rank are only so-so. They can't even win against me, who has played the game for less than three months. If they can monopolize most of the resources with this sort of strength, haha, the power structure in the Chinese server might soon change."
When he said his final sentence, the expressions of Dream Clouds, Musical Note, and the others changed.
"What do you mean?"
The smile in the man in black's eyes did not fade away. His words also became even more wild and arrogant. "I don't mean anything. I just think that only the strong have the right to decide everything in the world! The world of martial artists is a little wasted in your hands. Heh, today, I'll use the resources from Eunuch Yang's Warehouse to build a sect and have some fun. "
"…"
Dream Clouds and Musical Note's expressions changed drastically again.
If the man in black truly built a sect and fought for supremacy in the Chinese server, the power structure in the Chinese server might really change because of it!
"What are you doing?"
Just when everyone's attention was gathered on them, the man in black suddenly frowned and glared behind him.
The others were stunned. It was only then that they noticed that the person who wore the same clothes as the man in black was slowly untying the rope on the port.
