Chapter 1151: Osaya
This plot-related quest had indeed attracted a lot of Chinese players to the place, but the appearance of Wind Assault Tower members had caused many players to be wary. There were plenty of people in Phantasmal Shadow’s party, and they were strong. Their party was much larger than any of the parties formed by the players in the inn. Hence, when they faced such a great threat, many people looked wary and hostile. They stared at Phantasmal Shadow’s party with indignant gazes.
Phantasmal Shadow naturally sensed the unwelcoming atmosphere in the inn, but she was completely unbothered by it while she continued sizing up the area. The people in West Region were very fierce. Since they were at the borders, Wind Assault Tower’s reputation was not very influential in this place.
“Owner, we’d like to use the side hall over there.”
Wu Kuo seemed to have come to Dragon Gate Inn before, and he knew the rules in this place. He resolutely threw two handfuls of gold to Jin Xiangyu, the money-hungry lady, so that he could have her clear the side hall to the left.
He was very firm, revealing Wind Assault Tower’s domineering style fully.
However, while NPCs were willing to show respect to other NPCs, these NPCs were obviously not willing to show respect to normal players.
Bang!
The people sitting at the tables in the side hall to the left slammed the table and stood up. They drew their weapons aggressively and glared at them.
“Damn you! You want me to move?! That will depend on how many heads you have for me to behead!”
“You actually have the audacity to tell me to move with how puny you are?! I’m going to drain you of blood and hang you off the poles as a signboard!”
The other players in the inn watched aloofly as the wanderers in the side hall to the left stood up against Wind Assault Tower’s men, they did not move.
The barbarians in the side hall to the right were interested. The leader wiped his mouth off a servant girl’s dress. At the same time he enjoyed his wine, he looked over.
Phantasmal Shadow did not seem to have noticed the hostile air in the inn. Her gaze was fixed for a moment on the barbarian.
Wu Kuo did not look at wanderers who came over to challenge them. He told the tower members behind him to be quick, and immediately, a man with a long, thin, black sword walked out.
The man who walked out from Wind Assault Tower had an aloof gaze and an expressionless face. His black cloak fluttered behind him as he walked toward the wanderers who had been rude to them. His head was held high.
Whoosh!
He just executed one slash, and it was a simple slash executed in a relaxed manner.
Three corpses laid strewn in the inn. They crashed against the tables behind them, and they caused a huge mess.
At the moment this person took action, Silver Wolf and his party had their pupils shrink at the same time.
They were a group of Inaction Realm martial artists, but they did not manage to last for even two breaths when they faced the Wind Assault Tower elite. In fact, they did not even have the chance to say anything else. After more than ten people died, they fled in a flustered manner.
The man with the cloak looked as if he had just done something incredibly insignificant. He sheathed his sword and turned around to return to Wind Assault Tower’s group.

Dragon Gate Inn became completely silent. Then, when Young Wu brought the people’s corpses down to the basement, many people gradually snapped out of their shock.
“His sword is so fast…”
Silver Wolf and the other players in the inn felt that the situation was grave as well. They stared at the person. “He’s fast and powerful. It should be an ultimate technique.”
Once the side hall to the left was emptied, the people from Wind Assault Tower had a place to sit.
The side hall to the left was crowded, and those who did not manage to make it in filled up the remaining two tables in the hall.
At that moment, there were people in the hall who could not keep quiet anymore.
“I am Niu Dali, sect master of Stained Shirt Sect. I’ve heard of your great name before, Shadow Empress. Allow me to toast to you.”
A built and skilled-looking player stood up to lift his cup in Phantasmal Shadow’s direction.
Phantasmal Shadow turned around and lifted her cup.
“You’re the qi expert who has inherited Eighteen Stained Shirt Drops, the wrestling champion of West Region. I’ve heard of your name for a long time.”
“I’m just slightly famous, and I must be a joke to you, Shadow Empress. Allow me to drink first as a show of respect to you.” Niu Dali drank the entire cup in a boisterous manner.
“A toast to you!”
Phantasmal Shadow did not show a perfunctory attitude when she drank.
“Haha! How delightful!” Niu Dali might seem to be a carefree person, but his subsequent words showed that he had a sensitive side. “I didn’t expect that you would arrive so soon, Tower Master Shadow. You are indeed quick. I thought that the elites at the centre of the Chinese plains would only be able to arrive earliest by tomorrow after they received the announcement from the system.”
“Ha, I have to say, it is a coincidence. Yesterday, I had a quest near Shennongjia, so I came over to look. I didn’t expect that I would run into something so amazing.”
“I see, looks like you’re really lucky when it comes to the desert palace. I hope that you will be victorious and be able to obtain the treasures in the desert palace.” Once Niu Dali said those words, the other players’ gazes in the inn instantly turned even colder. Their gazes on Wind Assault Tower became even more hostile.
Phantasmal Shadow saw this, and she said nothing. However, she did become even warier of Niu Dali. She nodded faintly and thanked him before she looked at a corner of the inn.
“Only those who possess great morals will be able to have the desert palace. Even though I want it, that will depend on my luck. Brother Silver Wolf, did your sect master come to the desert as well?”
Whoosh!
When the players in the inn saw Phantasmal Shadow looking at an insignificant corner in the corner, countless gazes were instantly trained on Silver Wolf and his party, who had been keeping a low profile.
“Hiss…”
“The people from Lovely Land?”
“I didn’t expect that the people from Lovely Land would be here as well.”
Quite a number of players in the inn put on shocked and hesitant expressions.
Lovely Land was different from Wind Assault Tower.
Even though Lovely Land had just been built, they had the two peerless elites in the Chinese plains, and Happy’s fame had been shooting up recently. He was already showing signs of becoming even more famous than Evil Emperor now.

One Emperor had also been viciously destroying Wild Wolves’ momentum outside the borders.
And ever since rumors about the competition in Lovely Land to figure out the strongest player in Lovely Land spread out along with rumors of Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy being offered as the prize for the competition, a new piece of news shot up in the Chinese plains: in just a few days, its members had increased to three hundred thousand.
Right now, Lovely Land’s lineup and strength had already surpassed Wind Assault Tower’s. In fact, it showed signs of surpassing Class One Hall’s when it was at the peak of its power.
If Lovely Land intended to join the party as well and Happy personally took part in it, their hopes of gaining any treasure would be largely reduced.
For a moment, when these people stared at Silver Wolf, their gazes were incredibly complicated and wary.
Silver Wolf might be a little displeased when Phantasmal Shadow exposed his identity, Phantasmal Shadow was still the tower master of Wind Assault Tower, the second most influential person in the Chinese plains. He had to stand up.
“I didn’t expect that you would remember someone as insignificant as us. It is my honor.”
Even though he said those words, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He showed no intention of licking Phantasmal Shadow’s boots.
“Brother Silver Wolf, you’re too humble,” Phantasmal Shadow schooled her expression and said, “There is no way you’re insignificant. After all, Sect Master Happy regards you highly. I admire your abilities as well.”
“Tower Master Shadow, you must be joking.” Silver Wolf interrupted Phantasmal Shadow. “We have just joined the sect. There is no way normal members like us will be able to figure out where our sect master is. If you want to know where he is, you should ask Master Wandering Know-it-all.”
With those jokes, he slowly sat down.
Even though Phantasmal Shadow did not manage to get any information from Silver Wolf, she was still alerted by Silver Wolf’s presence.
She suddenly realized that Happy had already vanished from the world of wanderers for a few days, and during this time, Dragon Gate Inn’s plot was activated.
“Would such coincidences exist?”
Once Phantasmal Shadow sat down, she frowned slightly.
But she did not have the time to think about this in depth. The door to the inn was suddenly flung open, and a violent gust of wind blew in, along with a woman’s voice that was filled with a wild tone.
“That’s a lot of Chinese people. I do like Chinese men the most.”
When they heard this wild and hoarse voice, the barbarians in the side hall to the right were shocked. They frowned and spoke in their language.
Even the red-clad Lamas and servant girls behind them stared at a high spot at the beams at the same time.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless gazes in the inn were fixed on the beams.
The thin and long beam could not hide the person’s exposed bronze skin. Not a single bit of fat could be seen on her thin waist. Her body seemed to be fragile and boneless, and it was covered by enchanting, black gauze. Her beautiful curves were shown, and it caused the people’s imagination to run wild.
A circle of shiny and black ornaments adorned the black gauze around her waist. She looked incredibly mischievous and cute, and there were even adorable crystal pieces stuck to her belly button. It gave her a wild sort of beauty, but also made her look rather sacred.
The person was filled with the gentle and wild beauty of the women in West Region. Her body was also so alluring that it caused those who saw her to feel heat pool in their bodies.
When she looked down, all the people who saw her gaze felt as if they were about to start burning.
Her gaze on the people were filled with lust and wildness. With just one look, she could make their blood surge, and they would feel as if their souls were about to be snatched!
Even Silver Wolf could not help but have his heart pound. A powerful desire started gushing in his heart.
Many of the men in the inn could not resist her gaze. Many of the people could not help but suck in deep breaths and got up. They looked like they wanted to get closer and hold this beautiful thing in their arms.
“Snap out of it.”
A woman’s mental strength was stronger. When Phantasmal Shadow saw that the situation was off, she used hidden force to send a message to the people in Wind Assault Tower.
But the situation caused her to be incredibly shocked.
“Tower master.”
Her people did not seem to have fallen for any sort of people. Once they looked away from Phantasmal Shadow, they trained their eyes on the alluring creature on the beam again. “That’s not a seduction technique.”
“The woman is just too alluring…”
“This is the first time I saw such an awesome woman. She has the perfect blend of wildness and gentleness. Tsk, she’s the perfect epitome of a woman.”
Phantasmal Shadow’s expression instantly changed. It was only then that she noticed that while the people were all attracted by the mysterious West Region woman sitting on the beam, they still had some semblance of rationality remaining in their minds. They did not do anything contemptible.
“Those barbarians seem to be fine.”
Phantasmal Shadow turned to look. Her gaze moved past Silver Wolf’s party and the people in the hall to land on the group in the other side hall.
The barbarians over there seemed to know who she was. They did not look at the mysterious West Region woman. Only the leader stood up at this moment and said something to the woman in his language.
“So, it’s you. I was wondering just who would be so stupid as to bring so many foolish things to the desert and display their wealth in the desert.” The mysterious West Region woman on the beam had her gaze sweep past the group, and her eyes were charming. “You asked me why I don’t like you? I remember that I already told you very clearly that I hate stinky men like you who don’t bathe.”
Once she finished speaking, she suddenly jumped down. Her perfect body fell gracefully, and when it was covered by the black gauze, it made her look incredibly alluring. She landed on an empty bench at the center of the hall.
Her bewitching and seemingly unfocused eyes were fixed on the only man in the inn who still remained rational, and that man was right in front of her right now. An enchanting, fragrant smell tumbled out of her seductive lips. “Does the saying, ‘Being aloof to all matters in the world’ describe Chinese people like you?”
Her slightly hoarse and magnetic voice entered their ears, and all the people’s gazes were instantly trained on the man and woman at the center of the hall.
