Chapter 1039: Chapter 1039 – Discovery!

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

The fierce arrow showers traveled forth in a dense wave and crushed the great dragon formed by shattered tiles. They grazed the Class One Hall’s swordsman’s agile body before they pierced the ground in an endless stream.

Two of Class One Hall’s aces had attacked brazenly. Not only had one of them cut down Wind Assault Tower’s plate in one breath and destroyed Wind Assault Tower’s morale, the other also helped the swordsman to escape unscathed from the arrow shower released by countless Wind Assault Tower’s elites. Many Class One Hall members cheered when they saw this.

“As expected of Soaring Clouds Sword Xie Lingyun!”

“Big Bro’ Xie, you’re awesome!”

“Haha! Heaven Shaker Legs Luo, not bad!”

While countless Class One Hall members shouted and cheered, Xie Lingyun landed to Dream Clouds’ left in an incredibly elegant and free manner. Together with Heaven Shaker Legs Luo, who was an elite with hidden forces, they flanked Dream Clouds. These two elites then turned around and faced Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. At the same time they were filled with pride, their eyes spoke of derision and scorn.

“Today, we’ll let you know that Wind Assault Tower is unworthy of its title! You might have the title of the strongest, but you’re weak!” Xie Lingyun opened his mouth and sucked in a deep breath before his loud and sonorous voice traveled clearly into Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters and the streets around them.

“With your abilities, you actually had the guts to occupy the position as the strongest in the Chinese server all this while?! What a joke!”

The numerous people from the twelve sects and Blood Alliance in the streets shouted loudly in agreement.

“Wind Assault Tower, do you dare come out and fight us!”

“You can choose to fight against us alone or in a group! Choose whatever you want!”

“Only cowards will keep on hiding in their shells!”

“Wind Assault Tower, do you dare fight against us?!”

“Are there even any real men among you?!”

Sound waves filled the air and charged to the clouds!

In comparison, when the group of elites in Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters failed to kill their enemies, it was inevitable that the rage within them turn into dejectedness.

Their enemies had destroyed their plate in a grand manner and even retreated safely. To the once strongest sect which had commanded over the Chinese server for several years, this was a humiliation they could not get rid of.

When they heard the unpleasant curses from those Class One Hall members outside, the people from Wind Assault Tower had their emotions surge. If it were not for the people from Elder Hall trying their best to suppress the rage within their people, most of them might have already been unable to control themselves and charged out.

An elder shouted at the top of his lungs at the entrance and prevented a few of his friends beside him from rushing out with enraged faces.

“This is the enemy’s provocation! Don’t fall for it!

“Our plate has been destroyed! Did you actually think that I’m not mad?! I’m way more livid than you are! But if we rush out right now, we’re all going to die!

“Right now, we’re surrounded by Class One Hall and the people from the twelve Beijing sects! It’s not suitable for us to go out and fight against them head on with the number we have! Our only advantage is in our headquarters! Don’t get thrown into confusion just because of the enemy’s provocation!

“Preserve your lives and stay in the headquarters honestly! At that time, try your best to kill as many of those Class One Hall bastards as you can!”

“That’s right! Stay here, all of you!”

“Before the tower master comes back, no one is to take any reckless action!”

Wind Assault Tower was finally placated, but their eyes were bloodshot. They were like gunpowder barrels that were going to explode when lit. They stood in an orderly formation and sternly guarded their headquarters from high spots. They kept their eyes fixed on their enemies and watched their actions, never lowering their guard in the slightest.

Wu Kuo and the others had incredibly grave expressions.

“Just where is the tower master?”

“She hasn’t returned even after she has been gone for such a long time. If we continue stalling, Class One Hall will definitely come in!”

“Enough with the nonsense!”

“The tower master has already prepared a precise plan for us one week ago. As long as we guard our stations, Class One Hall can forget about getting into our headquarters!”

Wu Kuo and a few of Phantasmal Shadow’s junior sisters stood together and stared at the area behind them with resolute gazes. “As for the tower master, she is currently trying to persuade the other four neutral sect masters in Beijing. As long as we can get their help, we will have a possibility of surviving through this battle in Beijing.”

The group of people were looking at the roof of the hall in the headquarters.

A woman with a cold face and a grayish-black robe sat at a tall place on the roof. Her eyes were lively and wary, which was something that did not fit her face. While she was protected by a group of elites, she quietly hugged a sword casket to her chest.

Very few people knew that Wind Chimes had long since used a human skin mask to take the risk and sneak into Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters.

Under the protection of this group of top-class elites, Demonic Zither could bring about a terrifying significance in such a large-scale war.

She might not be able to have any advantage while she joined an offense, but when it came to defense, no one could compare to Wind Chimes when it came to her control and area in using sound to kill. Not the elite with Lion’s Roar, and not the pair of elites who used those golden cymbals.

Even though One Emperor was not around right now, with Wind Chimes as the trump card, they could stop Class One Hall easily for a while.

Even when they heard Wu Kuo’s words, the group of Wind Assault Tower elders did not show any signs of relief.

They knew very clearly just how great of a pressure the four sect masters had to face. This was a choice that could mean utter destruction, and it was highly unlikely that Phantasmal Shadow could successfully convince them to join them.

Also, what caused them to be unable to feel relieved was that without Phantasmal Shadow around to use her wits to command them, Wind Assault Tower’s ability in fighting against Class One Hall had decreased by twenty percent.

If Class One Hall attacked by force, Wind Assault Tower might not be able to last for more than half an hour!

At the same time, they had to face a great danger!

If Evil Emperor truly came to Beijing, without One Emperor coming to guard them, Wind Assault Tower’s defeat and destruction might come even sooner.

Countless worries caused the group of Wind Assault Tower highers to feel as if they were boiling in a pot of oil. They stared at the enemies outside while remaining highly tense.

Dream Clouds had a hint of a smile appear on her face while she remained outside Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters.

In truth, when she had her people attack to cut down Wind Assault Tower’s plate just now, she had wanted to cut down Wind Assault Tower’s morale, and on the other hand, she wanted to test and see whether One Emperor was in the headquarters.

When he faced a provocation from Class One Hall’s swordsman, One Emperor will definitely not be able to hold back, since he was incredibly prideful about his sword will and would not allow anyone to regard him in scorn.

“One Emperor is not here. Then, chances are that he isn’t in Beijing. This is a good chance!”

When they heard the words that left Dream Clouds’ lips, quite a number of people instantly came to an understanding.

Xie Lingyun spoke next to her, “Since One Emperor isn’t around, why don’t we just charge inside? There are only those few in Wind Assault Tower who can be considered elites, and the number of those elites don’t even number to one-fifth of our elites. We can get rid of them in one go, and even if One Emperor manages to make it here by then, he will be alone, and he won’t be able to do much.”

“No.” Dream Clouds did not agree to it.

She looked down from above and swept over Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. After a few seconds, she said, “If Wind Assault Tower insists on defense, with just us, we will definitely have to pay a hefty price before we can take them down. Right now, the situation will change at any moment, and we can’t afford a huge loss, regardless of whether it is to fight against the players in the Chinese server or whether it is to fight for more authority for Evil Emperor. We must be cautious in every step we take.”

The people around her nodded without saying anything.

Most of them had already been notified about Class One Hall and Evil Wolf’s relationship. They had not the idea behind it because Dream Clouds had promised them that once she used Wild Wolves to control the Chinese server and build up enough strength, she could absolutely slowly break herself free from Wild Wolves’ control and stand as equals with them. This was the perfect picture Dream Clouds had painted for them.

At that moment, a show white messenger pigeon flew through the air and landed on Dream Clouds.

She was stunned. Then, right before the crowd, she extended her fair and noble fingers in a dignified manner.

Many of the voices behind became softer at that moment.

In the past, Dream Clouds was just a woman who was good at making schemes to them and was just the leader of a guild. During that time, there were a few people who could stand as equals with her.

But now, at this moment, Dream Clouds had finally displayed all the strength she had hidden in the darkness. Twelve of the major sects in Beijing belonged to Class One Hall, and Dream Clouds had created them with her own hands. The two hundred famous elites surrounding her was proof of her strength!

This gigantic amalgamation instantly caused Wind Assault Tower, who was once the strongest sect in the Chinese server, to instantly look like nothing. In fact, they appeared as if they could be destroyed at any moment.

Right now, there was no one in the Chinese server who could stop Dream Clouds, and no one could speak to Dream Clouds at the same height.

There was no action from within Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. The members stood like fortified walls while they waited for Class One Hall to take the initiative to attack them. It was clear that they opted for defense and counterattack.

That was why Dream Clouds slowly received the messenger pigeon before the crowd in a completely nonchalant manner and took down the letter tied to the pigeon’s leg. Then, she slowly opened the letter with her fingers.

She skimmed through the letter.

Dream Clouds narrowed her eyes a little. Then, slight puzzlement appeared in her eyes.

Someone beside Dream Clouds saw her take in a deep breath, and he could not help but ask her, “Did something happen?”

“No.” Dream Clouds shook her head slowly before she smiled and said, “Looks like even the heavens want to destroy Wind Assault Tower this time.”

“…But of course. Wind Assault Tower has already been reduced to the last of their breath over this period of time because of your plans. Their strength has been largely compromised, and no one can prevent their destruction.”

“That’s not what I meant.” There was a rather mysterious quality to Dream Clouds’ smile.

Under the group of top-class elites’ puzzled gazes, Dream Clouds said slowly, “Her enemies have already arrived outside her headquarters, and yet, Phantasmal Shadow is not in Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. I didn’t expect that Phantasmal Shadow would make such a fatal and low-level mistake. By the looks of it, we won’t need Evil Emperor to take action at all. Class One Hall can easily destroy Wind Assault Tower on our own!”

“Phantasmal Shadow isn’t in Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters?”

“Has Phantasmal Shadow decided to give up on her tower?”

“No. She’s asking for help from the four sect masters. Unfortunately, this means that Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters has no general. Truly, if disaster had fallen on her because of nature, she might have been able to survive, but when she brings disaster upon herself, there’s no way she can live through it.” When she said this, Dream Clouds’ tone changed, and she gave firm orders to the people around her. “Send my orders immediately. Have all the elites come forward!

“Give up on the first two steps of the original plan! We’ll be jumping straight to the third step!

“Carry this out immediately!”

These orders swiftly tumbled out of Dream Clouds’ lips.

The people from Class One Hall, the twelve Beijing sects, and Blood Alliance quickly received this news, and their people started moving hastily.

As she stared at Wind Assault Tower, which did not show any flaws and still did not change their defensive strategy, Dream Clouds smiled coldly in a manner that said she was absolutely going to wind. “I will remember you in my heart from now on…”

Once she finished speaking, she swung her arm down resolutely.

More than two hundred aces and all the elites in the sects charged toward Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters from every direction like water spilling out from a dam.
