Chapter 1031: 1031
Chapter 1031: A Guest Visits the Prison
“Looks like it’s already impossible for me to convince you to hand over the stone plate in your hands, Young Swordsman Happy,” said Shi Feixuan slowly after she remained silent for a while . She said those words while staring into Happy’s eyes .
Happy smiled . “I am truly regretful as well . You are the prided successor of Kind Boathouse, and you seem intent to get the stone plates . However, the other two are in Evil King’s hands, and there’s really no need for us to fight over the one stone plate in each of our hands . ”
“You’re right, Young Swordsman Happy . ” Shi Feixuan’s tone became stern . She lifted the stone plate in her hand . “Right now, Evil King is injured and has fled into the distance . He will definitely search for a secluded place to train in silence and understand the legacy left behind on the stone plate by the divine monk . Instead of us fighting over here, it’s best if we return to our sects and ask our masters how we should handle our stone plates . ”
“Miss Shi, you’re right . Evil King has already received the relics from the divine monk, and when he returns to the world of martial arts, he will definitely be much stronger than before . Those of the righteous path in the Chinese plains must fend against him . ”
Happy did not dare go against the world and seize the other stone plate from Shi Feixuan’s hands as well . After all, offending Kind Boathouse was the same as offending all those in the righteous path in the Chinese plains .
He lowered his head and put the stone plate into his bosom before he said, “It’s not convenient for me to stay here anymore . I’ll be leaving now and returning to the Shaolin Temple . Miss Shi, let us meet again next time . ”
“Farewell . ” Even though she could not quite accept how things ended, Shi Feixuan was severely injured right now, and she was not certain whether she could take down Happy either . She could only nod, turn around, and leave with light movements .
Once Shi Feixuan, Happy turned his head around to cast a glance at the group of Buddha statues .
Ever since the four stone plates were all brought out of the Arhat Formation, the countless powerful presences in the Arhat Formation disappeared without a trace . The large number of Arhat Buddha statues crumbled, and the large number of Buddha statues here became something of the past .
‘The Buddha statues have disappeared, and I have no clue where Shi Zhixuan is either . I won’t be able to seize Shi Feixuan’s stone plate either . Oh well, if I have just one, so be it . I’ll search for a place and quietly understand so that I’ll learn exactly what profound secret is hidden in it . It might be able to help me and increase my strength . ’
When he thought of this, Happy put on his human skin mask again . He took the stone plate and quickly left into the distance .
Happy and Shi Feixuan left one after another .
Luo Zhiheng had been watching for a long time in the distance . It was only then that he quietly appeared . In his hands was the female trap master who was heavily injured but not dead yet . The duo looked at each other at a loss, and their expressions were full of dejectedness .
“We’ve worked hard for more than a month, and in the end, we still failed in the quest…”

“Who is he? We came over here after so much trouble, and a guy who suddenly appeared snatched part of our rewards away . ”
“You’re thinking about going up against him?” The female trap master shook her head and smiled wanly .
When he heard this, Luo Zhiheng’s expression instantly fell . “He managed to force even Shi Zhixuan back . Even if a whole group of us came, we wouldn’t be able to win against an elite like that . I’m just curious . Since when did such a powerful player appear in the Chinese server?”
“Didn’t you say you wanted to see whether you would drop anything just now? How could you not know his name? Didn’t you touch him?”
“Thank goodness I didn’t, or else, I’d be dead right now…” Luo Zhiheng looked resigned .
*****
‘If I log off, the stone plate will automatically appear at the place where I logged off one hour later . Looks like I’ll have to eat faster . ’
While he returned to Beijing, Happy came to realize this, and he found himself rendered speechless by it . As expected, this item was indeed an extraordinary quest item .
However, fortunately, with Happy’s current strength, he did not need to be scared even when he was outside . Besides, as of right now, the Prophet and Class One Hall’s gazes should be gathered on Wind Assault Tower and One Emperor . While he traveled to Beijing, he ran into no one trying to run into him . Once he returned to Beijing, he went to Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters .
“This is Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters . Those who are not part of us are not allowed in!”
Before he got close to the door, a group of people rushed out of the headquarters and stared at Happy warily while he had a human skin mask placed on his face . Their weapons were drawn, and they were ready to fight . The atmosphere was tense .
Happy was stunned .
It seemed like the atmosphere in Wind Assault Tower had become even more tense .
Happy said nothing .
He immediately stood still and quietly brought out a plate . He swung it a little in front of the Wind Assault Tower members .
Assault!
This word was carved with vigorous strokes, and it was filled with the presence and might of war .
The Wind Assault Tower members were shocked, and they quickly had their hostility fade away . Their wary gazes also turned gentle .
“So you’re an honored guest of Wind Assault Tower! Apologies for our rudeness!”
“Please come inside . ”
The group quickly split up so that they made way for him .
Happy nodded slightly .
Phantasmal Shadow had asked Wind Chimes to personally hand the plate over to him . With it, he could enter Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters and all their branches in the Chinese plains . He could also use the sect prisons . Naturally, the Wind Assault Tower members could recognize it .
Happy followed the group of people into the headquarters, and suddenly, he noticed that the number of Wind Assault Tower members had increased by a large margin . All of them looked as if they were about to face a great enemy, and there were a lot of disciples who walked about with pale faces and feeble footsteps .
His heart tensed, and Happy asked the person beside him quietly, “Did something happen to Wind Assault Tower over the past few days?”
The group of Wind Assault Tower members beside him all looked indignant and full of hate .
Someone could not hold back and answered, “Those major sects in Beijing are all so easily swayed . A few days ago, they wanted to work with us against Class One Hall . Now, when they saw that Class One Hall is full of grandeur right now while Wind Assault Tower is in trouble, all of them went to side with Class One Hall and worked with them to suppress Wind Assault Tower . As of right now, if any of us goes out of Beijing, we’ll be in danger . ”

“Those bastards… Once this incident ends, we’ll get rid of these traitors who sided with Class One Hall . We won’t let any of the major sects in Beijing run!” someone declared viciously and fiercely, but when the people around him heard this, their expressions were full of dejectedness .
Happy quickly noticed this abnormality, and he could not help but lament in his heart .
Class One Hall had never been weaker than Wind Assault Tower . Right now, they became allies with more than ten Beijing sects as well as Blood Alliance . The morale of those within Wind Assault Tower became incredibly low .
It seemed like even the members themselves had begun wondering whether Wind Assault Tower could escape from this disaster this time .
Happy might have a little grave heart, but he knew that he had to accept this as reality . Wind Assault Tower simply could not stand against Class One Hall right now .
As of right then, Phantasmal Shadow could only wait quietly, The moment Evil Emperor entered the Chinese server, the Chinese server would swear allegiance to Wind Assault Tower, and all the rumors around Wind Assault Tower would fade away, and at that time, Class One Hall and Dream Clouds’ sinister heart would be revealed by then . She could only wait for this moment to arrive .
When they were caught in a desperate situation, they would fight fiercely for a chance to survive, and that would be the only chance for Wind Assault Tower and the Chinese server could win!
“What has One Emperor been doing over the past few days?” Happy asked .
The group of people beside him looked at each other and shook their heads, “Ever since One Emperor killed a group of Class One Hall elites and destroyed a few insignificant branches, he vanished . ”
When he heard this, Happy frowned, said nothing else, turned around, and headed to the sect prison at the depths of Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters .
The Wind Assault Tower members stared at the man who had no sect emblem on his chest effortlessly move through the corridor and vanish from their sight . Then, puzzlement slowly appeared in their eyes .
“Who is he?” Someone was unable to hold back from asking .
The others broke the silence at that moment .
“He looks so imposing . ”
“Yeah, when I spoke to him, I feel as if there was a pressure on me, but I don’t find myself too averse to it . I couldn’t hold back from answering his questions . It’s really strange . ”
“Me too . ”
“He must be the leader of a sect…”
“Could he be a helper the tower master managed to contact?”
While the group discussed with each other, a voice rose from someone in the crowd, and he answered their questions . “Stop guessing, he’s an important guest the tower master invited a few days ago . He’s a great player . ”
“A great player?”
“Elite?”
“What do you know? Tell us, quick!”
When many of them heard those two nouns, they could not help but have their curiosity stirred .
There were plenty of elites in Wind Assault Tower . Hence, there was only one person in the entire Chinese server whom Phantasmal Shadow would need to personally invite to come over, and that was One Emperor . Therefore, when they heard that this person was someone their tower master invited, they were instantly very excited .
The person who spoke was actually spontaneously arranged to send Happy to the sect prison, but ever since Happy received the sect plate and became familiar with the location of the sect prison, he did not bother following Happy around anymore, which was why he did not have a clear idea of who Happy was either . He only knew that this person was someone the tower master valued a lot .
“I can’t spill secrets . ”
“Tsk, we’re all friends, and you’re pulling that stunt with us?’
The more the speaker pretended to be mysterious, the more he stirred up the curiosity of the Wind Assault Tower members around him . All of them could not hold back from getting closer to him .
That person found himself very much annoyed by how much they bugged him .
“I don’t know just who he is either, but you should know that ever since we turned complete enemies against Class One Hall and declared war against them, the tower master gave us one order . ”
“Are you saying…?”
Quite a number of people in the crowd seemed to have guessed something . Their eyes lit up, and they wanted to say something, but decided against it .
“That’s right . I’m talking about that order . On the day of the war, the tower master temporarily suspended our rights to use our contribution points to enter the sect prison to train . I also led that person into the sect prison that day—”
“What the heck?!”
“We have so many of us around, and we can’t enter the sect prison! Why does he get the right?!”
“Are you trying to tell us that the tower master has temporarily sealed off the sect master because of him? And she did all this so that he can train alone in the sect prison?”
Quite a number of people were dumbfounded and guessed a truth that shocked them .
“I have to say… that person seems to have headed to the sect prison just now . ”
“Oh, that’s right!”
“Just who is he?!”
“We arranged such a display of splendour for him?! And our tower master is placing so much value in him?!”
The group’s curiosity and spirit for gossip began burning fiercely .
*****
Happy naturally did not know that his appearance had caused countless Wind Assault Tower members to have their imaginations run wild . To quickly search for a quiet place to understand the stone plate in his bosom, he went straight to the sect prison in Wind Assault Tower, and during that time, he never stopped moving even once .
However, what surprised Happy was that when he returned to the sect prison, Happy immediately noticed that someone else was inside!
More accurately speaking, the first thing that stimulated his senses was a sword will that should not be in this place, and it was an incredibly powerful and fierce sword will .
At the moment he entered the sect prison, the sword will locked down on him from the distance .
Happy’s body shuddered slightly, and he stared into the depths of the prison in shock .
A man in a purplish-black brocade robe and who was like an unsheathed sword stood inside . His gaze was sharp, profound, and awe-inspiring in the darkness!
