  “Enter!”

  The moment the calming effects started, everyone’s eyes lit up with delight. Aside from Little Jade, the other six people rushed to their camps to send their signals.

  Fortunately, the entrance to the royal mausoleum was rather big, and there was no problem in them sending ten people in one go, or else, if the people from the seven sects surged in at the same time, some conflict might happen.

  However, Emei Sect and Mount Hua Sect did not act immediately. It was as if they were waiting for something.

  The reason behind why the girls from Emei Sect wanted to wait could be seen from their disgusted expressions when they looked at the people from Kunlun Sect and Beggar’s Sect. They were a little averse to the idea of squeezing into the royal mausoleum with those people.

  As for Beautiful Robes Sect, it was because Happy had yet to appear. The group was somewhat disappointed, and their morale fell a little. Many of them had summoned up their courage and joined the quest because they heard that Happy would appear, or else, who would waste half a day to rush to this place?

  “Should we wait for a little while longer?”

  Little Jade cast a tentative glance at the people.

  Everyone shifted their gazes to the Three Lonely Wolves.

  Young Lonely White instinctively tried pushing at something on the bridge of his nose, but he did not have his glasses. He lowered his hand in embarrassment before he mumbled, “It’s fine if we wait a little longer. Let them go in and scout out the path for us first. Yup, this is a quest that has all seven great system-allocated sects gathered together, so it should be very dangerous inside. It’s good to be a little more careful.”

  No one knew whether he was trying to comfort himself or whether he was trying to comfort everyone else. However, the effect was very good.

  Everyone nodded and stayed where they were.

  However, based on how frequently they looked behind them, anyone could tell that they hoped to see Happy appear before the royal mausoleum’s calming effect disappeared and the Living Door was closed. After all, that legendary student’s experiences and actions always affected the students’ minds, and he also provided a lot of help to them. His identity was a mystery in their hearts.

  The battle replays they had seen were always too short, and they were usually chaotic. Right then, they had finally seized a chance to come into contact with him after considerable effort. If they lost the chance, it would be too much of a pity.

  Flap, flap, flap……

  A snow-white messenger pigeon flew back, and a few girls’ eyes lit up in the crowd. They looked at Bai Lang while he took the letter and surrounded him.

  The reply in the letter was very simple.

  [Enter with haste!]

  Young Lonely White, Young Lonely Black, and Young Lonely Seven looked at each other. Then, they spoke without hesitation.

  \r \r \r

  “Enter!”

  “What?”

  Once they heard their command, the students were very disappointed.

  It was especially so for Little Jade. She had gone through a lot of trouble to obtain the quest, which could be considered an indirect way to get close to Happy. After all, he did not spend much time outside the game, and he was also rather indifferent toward her, which made it hard for her to get closer to him.

  With the quest’s help, she had thought that she could attract Happy’s attention. Then, she could place an emphasis on getting closer to him in the game and get to understand him.

  She did not think that even after all her effort, he would not even show up!

  “Sister Phoenix Dances?”

  Little Jade looked at Phoenix Dances with a frown.

  Phoenix Dances sighed in resignation.

  “Something might have come up. Later, when we go in, we have to be careful. We have to try not to be separated and not act rash no matter what we see. When you run into danger, try to protect yourself.”

  Although Phoenix Dances was just a normal girl, she had been leading and managing Beautiful Robes Sect for two months, and she had gradually become mature and level-headed. She was no longer the girl who had publicly shouted at Happy that she would become his girlfriend.

  “Alright.” Little Jade felt helpless.

  “Glutinous Rice?”

  At that moment, a girl from Emei Sect suddenly stood out and pointed at another girl in Beautiful Robes Sect with a surprised look on her face.

  “Glutinous Rice?”

  The sect members from Emei Sect burst into commotion and looked over.

  The people from Beautiful Robes Sect were also stunned. They cast their gazes on a teenager who had tried to shrink and hide in the crowd. When she saw that things had progressed beyond saving, she knew that she could no longer hide. She stuck out her tongue and reluctantly walked out from among the people from Beautiful Robes Sect.

  “Hello, senior sister,” she said.

  “Young Glutinous Rice, why are you there?”

  “Oh ho, no wonder you said you were busy when we invited you. Here we are, wondering what exactly was so important. So, you actually abandoned us to form another group! Are all of them your coursemates?”

  The ladies from Emei Sect seemed to know Glutinous Rice. They surrounded her, and some of them even pinched her cheeks. Glutinous Rice looked as if she had been wronged, even though she was innocent, and she had a frown on her face, which made her look like a tomato.

  “Senior sisters, my coursemates are here. Please allow me to save some dignity……”

  Glutinous Rice smiled wanly. She looked so indignant that she wanted to cry, but could not.

  When they heard Glutinous Rice’s “tearful complaints”, the girls from Emei Sect finally stopped teasing her. They cast their gazes on the group of students from Beautiful Robes Sect and smiled cordially at them.

  “So, they’re all your coursemates, right? You sure have a pretty good life. It’s no wonder that you didn’t want to join us. Oh well, we’ll forgive you this time. But there are too few people in your group. You might be in danger when you go in. Why don’t you join us in this operation? We can take care of each other. How does that sound?”

  “How should we distribute the items then?”

  A senior sister looked at Glutinous Rice with a reprimanding look. “Young Glutinous Rice, did you actually think that we as your senior sisters would treat your coursemates badly? Even if we move in together, it doesn’t mean that we’ll be killing monsters together. Whatever you manage to snatch will belong to you. It’s just that when things are dangerous, we can take care of each other.”

  “Alright, then.”

  No matter what, Phoenix Dances was the spokesperson and master of Beautiful Robes Faction. When she saw that the senior sisters from Emei Sect seemed to be very fond of Glutinous Rice, and they had also made things very clear, she immediately agreed to their offer.

  When they saw that a group of beautiful Emei Sect ladies had joined them, the spirits of the men of Beautiful Robes Sect rose. The disappointment brought by Happy breaking his promise was also mostly washed away.

  Once the two groups gathered together, they were nearly one hundred people, and they had a mighty presence.

  When Mount Hua Sect and Emei Sect entered the royal mausoleum with a great momentum, the area outside the royal mausoleum instantly became silent.

  However, the silence did not last for long.

  The bamboo forest swayed, and the bamboo leaves fell with rustling sounds.

  Thud, thud, thud, thud!

  Rapi footsteps could be heard in the air. Hundreds of people surged into the area outside the royal mausoleum from every direction.

  The people in the lead were a group of men and women with hostile expressions. The person who was the most eye-catching among them had the picture of a tiger with a pair of wings tattooed on his bald head. He was half-naked, and his tattoo was very garish. He stared at the entrance of the royal mausoleum with a dark gaze.

  Whoosh!

  One of the people left the group and rushed to the entrance. He moved around it like a headless fly before he ran back to stand beside the bald man with the tiger tattoo.

  “Brother Tiger, we can’t enter anymore!”

  The latter’s expression did not change. He spoke with a dark tone, which was the tone he usually used.

  “It’s only to be expected that we can’t enter. This place is strange, and we have to have the items that calm our hearts to protect us. The people from the seven great system-allocated sects…… Hmph, let them go. We don’t know what sort of dangers exist in the royal mausoleum, but when they come out, we must take the items they get there. Brothers, surround the place, and let’s wait for them to come out!”

  With that order, hundreds of people moved to swiftly lock down a large area around the royal mausoleum.

  In the depths of the bamboo forest, there were three people who stood at the top of some bamboos and were staring at the people down below swiftly mobilizing their forces and entering a formation. Their expressions were not very good.

  “These people…… I knew they were up to no good when they came up from behind us. I think they were summoned by that person from Kunlun Sect. What should we do now?”

  Little North and Thunderous Battle looked at Happy, who bobbed up and down along with the bamboo leaf as it swayed.
