Chapter 1127: Silver Wolf Joins the Sect

“Sect Master Happy, are you saying that you intend to use such a valuable item as the prize for a competition among Lovely Land members? You’re going to give it away for free?”

When those words were uttered, countless people in the hall looked surprised. Even Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and the rest stopped whatever they were doing and stared at Happy while he smiled.

This was a legacy from Heavenly Saber Song Que, and it was fatally tempting to all martial artists in the world. It could allow a person to reach the skies with just one step, and it was even more shocking and valuable than the hundred million dollar prizes in the real world! This was not at all inferior to the hundred billion revenge fund Happy previously created.

“Since I am unable to inherit Heavenly Saber’s legacy and I am currently not lacking money, it will be even more inappropriate for me to keep this item around without using it, so why shouldn’t I make use of it?” When he faced the burning and expectant gazes gathered on them from the people all around the hall, Happy smiled faintly. It was as if he was not talking about Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy, but was speaking as naturally as if he was just giving out a 1,000 RMB red envelope during Chinese New Year.

“Hiss...”

The group sucked in sharp breaths once more.

Little North, who sat beside Happy, already did not know what sort of respectful gaze he should use to face his sect master.

“Sect Master Happy, I truly admire your spirit and boldness!”

Phantasmal Shadow lifted her winecup to show her respect, and her gaze was sincere.

At this point, she knew that she had lost to Happy again.

Phantasmal Shadow had thought about buying the jade plate at a high price to fight for a chance to get Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy, but Happy did not even care about the legacy. He just decided to hand it over to an outstanding member in his sect.

This was a legacy from a martial artist who was One with the World!

“Empress Shadow, you’re being far too polite.” Happy calmly lifted his cup to return the gesture.

“I, Lin Xiao, am filled with admiration for you.”

“I, Red Dust, propose a toast to you, Sect Master Happy.”

The two alliance masters of Chivalry Alliance stood up at the same time. Since Happy had stated this publicly, then this was a fact that had already been set in stone, and he would not change it.

Happy smiled and said nothing. He then saw Little North take the initiative to fill Happy’s cup with wine.

Once he finished drinking, someone sitting by a table not too far away suddenly stood up at that moment and asked a question, “Sect Master Happy, I have a question. You mentioned just now that you will be deciding who will be the strongest fighter in Lovely Land in a competition. Will you and the other two vice sect masters join the competition?”

Once he finished speaking, everyone burst into a ruckus. They looked at the man, who was someone with an upright look and resolute gaze. Even Lin Xiao, Phantasmal Shadow, and the others were stunned. Then, they looked at Happy with great interest.

“That’s right. Sect Master Happy, Lovely Land has you and One Emperor, two matchless elites. When you mention the members, did you include One Emperor in the mix?”

“One Emperor is obsessed with the path of the sword, and he will naturally not inherit Senior Heavenly Saber Song’s legacy. One Emperor will not be included in the competition between Lovely Land members, and there is no need to even mention me, considering the fact that I have been excluded from the possible candidates. We wouldn’t be so shameless as to compete with the other members in our sect.”

Happy smiled and looked at Thunderous Battle. He did not expect that the first person to ask the question would be this friend of his.

Thunderous Battle had actually gone through a huge conflict in his mind before he stood up. When he received Happy’s answer, he instantly released a breath of relief. “Thank you for your answer, sect master. Then, if I join Lovely Land now, will I be eligible for the competition...?”

When he said those words, the group burst into a ruckus once more.

Everyone cast their gazes on Thunderous Battle’s face.

Happy was also stunned.

“I know that what I said might be incredibly rude, and I will also sound as if I’m aiming for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy. I will not deny that I do indeed want it, that is why I would only like to know whether the people who join Lovely Land right now will have the right to enter the competition,” Thunderous Battle said once more in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.

Even though his question was incredibly straightforward, it had to be said that he gave voice to the question and expectation of the many people’s hearts.

Because most of the players inside and outside the mansion were not attached to a sect. They were all players to whom Wandering Know-it-all had discovered in the Chinese server, and they were all people who had a rather decent potential and strength.

These people were all people who were qualified to join Lovely Land!

It would definitely be fake to say that they had no desire for Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy. As long as they had a chance, they definitely wanted to fight for it.

Everyone cast their gazes on Happy’s face once more.

Nervous, expected, and burning gazes intersected in the air.

Little North also clenched his sleeves tightly as he nervously watched his sect master slowly twirl the winecup in his hands. After all, he was also someone who had just joined Lovely Land.

More people watched outside the mansion. The lively feast outside the city seemed to have become much quieter in an instant. Many people rushed here and waited for Happy to announce his results.

But what surprised them was that the first thing Happy said was not to answer Thunderous Battle’s question.

“Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy is something that belongs to me, and it is also a reward I decided to add to the competition. It is only par for the course that I am the one who decides who gets it. This has nothing to do with the current system in Lovely Land. And I will also be the one who will decide who will get the rewards which are similar to this, so long as I am the one who personally puts them into the sect storage.”

From the moment Happy spoke, everyone became attentive.

Even though they did not immediately get the answer they expected, everyone in the hall could tell that Happy had revealed some news that this was his personal decision, and he will continue doing the same thing in the future.

“There isn’t just one outstanding member in Lovely Land, but there is only one Heavenly Saber legacy. The competition will be brutal to Lovely Land, considering the fact that it has more than one million members. That’s why I don’t wish for Heavenly Saber’s legacy to fall into enemy hands, especially those from Class One Hall. Those who have once helped Dream Clouds will definitely not be taken into Lovely Land, and all those who fulfil the requirements must go through Wandering Know-it-all and my examination!”

When they heard the first half of the sentence, practically everyone, including Silver Wolf and Thunderous Battle, thought that Happy was providing an excuse to not give them the legacy, and they felt a little disappointed, but Happy’s words had suddenly taken another tone at the back, and when they heard that those who fulfilled the requirement were to be examined by Happy and Wandering Know-it-all, their eyes lit up.

Silence fell.

Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and Red Dust immediately noticed that the gazes of the people around them had become much more fervent and excited. They seemed to have realized something, and they sucked in sharp breaths.

“That is why, regardless of whether it is the people who joined Lovely Land in the past or in the future, I will welcome all of you abroad. But if you want to get my personal belongings, you will need to get through me and Wandering Know-it-all. Of course, many of you here have the requirements to get my personal belongings.”

“Really?”

“That’s great!”

“Ha! Sect Master Happy, can we join Lovely Land right now?”

The one hundred or so martial artists in the mansion became excited. Even some of them outside the mansion could not control themselves and wanted to rush in, and they would have if there had not been so many other sect leaders who were watching them.

The atmosphere in the mansion became incredibly lively.

When Lin Xiao and Red Dust saw this, they inhaled sharply while their hearts were filled with a myriad of emotions.

“Great move.”

“Even though the people here aren’t very famous, they are all people who have first-class elites’ skills or have their own forte. They can be considered an elite force. This group alone can create an outstanding large-sized sect with absolutely no problem whatsoever. Happy has benefited greatly this time.”

“I heard that Wandering Know-it-all chose them to be here beforehand. They have a clean background. Happy must be thinking about creating the backbone for his group of trusted followers by using Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy... It’s an amazing move.”

While these two people sent private messages to each other to gasp in amazement about this, Phantasmal Shadow and Wu Kuo were also deeply affected by the atmosphere in the mansion, and they were shocked as well.

“Some of the good seeds that caught our fancy have all joined Lovely Land.” Wu Kuo smiled wanly and sent a private message to Phantasmal Shadow. “Looks like Silver Wolf and his three brothers are all tempted.”

Phantasmal Shadow smiled wanly as well in the chaos. “It’s not just Silver Wolf alone...”

She stopped talking for a while, and there was an endless wave of emotion in her heart.

Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy was an incredibly shocking item. If this news spread out, many of the elites in World of Martial Arts would fight to join Lovely Land so that they could compete for Heavenly Saber’s legacy, and it must be known that those who met the requirements were at least high-ranking first-class elites! With this group of people entering Lovely Land, the sect would truly live up to its name as the greatest sect in the Chinese server, and no one would be able to touch its position anymore.

*****

It was not difficult for Happy to approve the sect applications for more than one hundred people, especially for the people to whom he was familiar with. Happy readily took in Thunderous Battle, Silver Wolf, Knife, and the other people who were not attached to any sects into Lovely Land.

Silver Wolf and the other three only decided to join at the end.

When it was his turn, Happy slowly got up, and he unintentionally put on a rather gratified smile. “Did you know that I’m really glad you decided to join my sect, Silver Wolf? I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.”

Silver Wolf and the other three said nothing, but they had strange expressions on their faces.

The other people in the mansion did not look too surprised, because Happy had previously mentioned that Silver Wolf left him a deep impression.

Silver Wolf, however, was the only one who found this strange.

When Happy said this earnestly, he seemed to have spoken from the bottom of his heart, and he looked truly happy that Silver Wolf joined. For some unknown reason, the cold look on Silver Wolf’s face melted a little.

He hesitated for a few seconds before he nodded. “Same here.”

Knife, Thunder, and Bar watched Happy and Silver Wolf talking to each other face to face, and they discreetly exchanged excited gazes.

“Brother Happy, congratulations to you being able to get such a group of great elites!”

“Haha! It’s all thanks to you!”

“But what do you intend to do with the people outside the mansion? They also seem to want to join Lovely Land...” Lin Xiao shook his head helplessly. Ever since Happy started taking in people, the people outside became increasingly agitated.

At that moment, the people inside the mansion had returned to their seats. When they heard this, they also noticed that the flow of people outside Song House had increased. Clearly, they had been attracted by the news of Heavenly Saber’s legacy and Happy’s decision.

Happy looked around once, and his gaze gradually calmed down.

“I believe that everyone wants to know why I had Wandering Know-it-all reveal the quest in Song House and why he asked all of you to gather here today.”

“We heard that you wanted to form an organization to fight against Wild Wolves.” Lin Xiao and Phantasmal Shadow calmed down, and their tone became stern.

Happy nodded and said two words softly, “Imperial Army.”

“If it’s to fight against Wild Wolves, Chivalry Alliance will support it with our full strength!” Lin Xiao answered firmly.

Phantasmal Shadow refused to be outdone, and his gaze gradually grew sharper. “With you taking the lead, I believe the Imperial Art will become a wall in the Chinese server. If you need Wind Assault Tower providing money and power, I will definitely be duty-bound to not refuse.”

These two sects were the most direct victims to Wild Wolves’ attack. Once these two sects made their stance, there was no way the others would not agree to it.

As the topic changed, the atmosphere in Song House instantly became much grimmer, and the expressions on the people’s faces changed.
