When the people from the branch in the Town of Kui were attacked, Dream Clouds was coincidentally meeting with Hanago from Japan and Do Jin from Korea at the back hall of the headquarters.
Do Jin was a true disciple of Japan's One Blade Sect, and Do Jin was the successor of Bright Sword Master Fu Cailin. They were invited by Dream Clouds to Class One Hall as guests.
Do Jin and Do Jin did not have any contact with Dream Clouds before this. They went to the Chinese server alone with the goal of meeting the elites in the Chinese server and witnessing the strength of the supreme-class elites from different countries. The Chinese server was not their first stop, but it was a stop that they had to pass by.
However, what shocked them was that even though they stayed in the Chinese server for a few days without alerting anyone, Dream Clouds came to them at the same time and invited them into the clan.
As the top representatives and supreme-class elites from Japan and Korea, they had powerful organizations and forces of power supporting them, so they were naturally not worried that Dream Clouds would attack them.
Besides, they came to them because they wanted to know how Dream Clouds knew where they were staying and their identities. As for the reason why Dream Clouds came to them, they knew it very well.
The three of them might speak different languages, but there was no language barrier in World of Martial Arts. They used different languages to communicate with each other, and they could understand each other's meaning.
"I heard that both of you like the Way of Tea a lot. Please try the supreme-grade Longjing tea from the Chinese server. It's not something that you can easily buy in the game."
"Tasting tea in the game might not be real, but there are plenty of ancient things that you can't recreate in real life, and there's a unique concept to it."
Hanago was dressed like a normal Chinese, and he could pass himself off as real, but when he opened his mouth, his strange accent was on full display. "Compared to the Way of Tea, I've admired the Chinese martial arts for a long time."
"Heh …" Dream Clouds knew that Hanago liked martial arts, so she calmly changed the topic. "You've been in the Chinese server for a few days now. The scenery in the Chinese server is pretty good, isn't it?"
"Hall Master Dream, you didn't bring us here just to drink tea and chat, right?"
Do Jin spoke.
Ever since he came in, he held his sword and did not say a word. He looked like a Chinese swordsman, but he was colder and more arrogant.
"I heard that the people of Bright Sword Dao practice Nine Profound Qi Cultivation Technique, and they have a natural chill in them. They can increase their presence in an intangible manner. I've admired you for a long time, and now that I've seen you today, you do live up to your name."
Dream Clouds' compliments caused Do Jin's expression to become much gentler.
"Hall Master Dream, there is an old saying in China. Speak frankly. Now that we have drunk our tea, it is time for you to tell us your purpose for gathering us here."
"That's right." Hanago looked over in agreement. "In the past, I've only heard of the Central Plains' Wandering Know-it-all. He has a Heaven's Secrets Inkstone, and he knows everything that happens in the Central Plains. However, he doesn't care about anything outside of the Central Plains. Hall Master Dream's eyes and ears seem to be even better than Wandering Know-it-all's."
"You praise me too much." Dream Clouds smiled.
"In truth, I'm not very strong, but I've always paid a lot of attention to the top-class elites from other countries. Even though this is the first time I've met you, I've admired you for a long time, especially since you've entered the top one hundred of the International Influential Rank. Right now, it's rare for me to have the chance to meet you with my own eyes, and I naturally don't want to miss this chance. I hope that you can forgive me for my rudeness and my poor hospitality."
"…"
Even though Dream Clouds' words could not make Hanago and Do Jin completely feel at ease, everyone was willing to listen to flattering words, and it was not appropriate for them to slap someone who was smiling at them. Besides, Dream Clouds' status in the Chinese server was equivalent to the leader of the largest guild in their country. She was only strong, not weak, so it was not appropriate for them to say anything.
But …
Dream Clouds' methods were extraordinary.
After flattering them for a while, even though they still felt troubled in their hearts, the smiles on their faces grew wider. In a foreign country, anyone would feel happy when they were treated with such importance and flattered.
"Are you saying that your goal in coming to the Chinese server is to challenge the elites in the Chinese world of martial artists?"
Once they became friendly with each other, they naturally began to speak more freely.
Once Hanago stated his goal, Do Jin widened his eyes.
"Challenges can only be issued by the weak against the strong. Brother Hanago, I would not dare to disagree with you on this. I'm just here to meet the heroes of the Chinese server and spar against the strongest elites in the Chinese server."
In one sentence, the arrogance in his bones was completely revealed.
When she saw the displeasure on Hanago's face, Dream Clouds quickly diverted their attention.
"My friends! Since you're here for the strongest elites in the Chinese server, I wonder whether your goal is Happy or One Emperor? "
"Of course it's Happy!"
"One Emperor!"
Hanago's answer was completely different from Do Jin's.
Both of them glared at each other again.
"Brother Do Jin, this time, it's my turn to talk to you. One Emperor might be at the top of the International Great People Rank, but that rank is made by people, and it's calculated based on points. You can't say that One Emperor is the strongest."
Before Hanago's voice faded away, Do Jin had already counterattacked, refusing to show any weakness.
"Hmph! Are you saying that you're amazing just because you have a higher qi realm? Happy is just relying on the fact that he has a lot of ultimate techniques in the world of martial artists, but One Emperor is different. He specializes in practicing the sword, and he has become one with his sword. Once he reaches a breakthrough, Happy will not be able to fight against him, even though he has all sorts of qi realms. "
"My friends …"
"Happy …" "One Emperor!"
One of them had a red face, and the other had a cold glare in his eyes. Each of them had their own opinions, and they argued endlessly.
When she saw this, Dream Clouds could not help but feel troubled.
These two were really born enemies.
At that moment, a messenger pigeon flew in. Under Do Jin and Hanago's gazes, it landed on Dream Clouds' shoulder, and their argument finally came to an end.
"Hall Master Dream."
Hanago saw Dream Clouds' expression change as if she had just flipped through a book. It was an expression of someone who had run into something incredibly bad, but was forcing herself to endure it.
He immediately lowered his voice and said tentatively, "You don't look too good."
Do Jin also stared at Dream Clouds with a cold gaze.
He did not know what sort of news could actually make the hall master of Class One Hall lose her composure in front of them, even though she had hundreds of thousands of elites with her.
"It's nothing."
Since there were guests around, Dream Clouds did not explode on the spot. She sucked in a deep breath, but she still could not help but hesitate in her heart. 'They actually attacked right now? Are they the vanguards to clear out the path, or are they … not the main force?' When she thought of this, she quickly wrote a reply right in front of the duo and handed the matter of the Town of Kui to Blood Robes to handle.
The Town of Kui was attacked.
More than four hundred Class One Hall members died within a short period of time.
Compared to the arrest and imprisonment incident that caused all of Class One Hall to be shocked, the loss of a few hundred people was considered small.
But …
This time, the place that was attacked was the Town of Kui, which no one cared about. It was a dead town that was forgotten by the people.
Four hundred people were completely wiped out.
Based on the explanation given by the branch master of the Town of Kui, they were ambushed while they were on guard in the wild. Not a single one of them survived, and the people who stayed behind to guard the town also did not manage to escape.
Since it was dark, and their vision was limited, aside from knowing that it was done by Mu Clan, they knew very little else.
The Town of Kui should have already fallen.
Tell the people in the branches nearby to be on high alert. Blood Robes, go and ask your people about the situation. "Dream Clouds only released a breath of relief after she sent the messenger pigeon.
The Emperor's Announcement quest had yet to end, and it was not yet time for the main event to happen. They should just be there to scout the area.
