  Happy scowled deeply when he saw the situation below him. He did not say anything for a long time.

  The royal mausoleum was different from Fox Cave.

  Based on what he remembered, the royal mausoleum was a few times bigger. Even if they used their lightness skills and traveled quickly, it would be very difficult for anyone to complete the first level within half an hour!

  Besides, the lowest-leveled ninjas in the first level of the royal mausoleum had already reached the later level of Blessed Realm, and they had high-tier throwing knife techniques. Their damage was not lower than that of the people in Mystical Realm, and they were incredibly difficult to deal with! And if he remembered correctly, they would have to face the incredibly troublesome Ghost Face Wall in the first level!

  “This isn’t good!”

  The memories regarding the royal mausoleum appeared clearly in Happy’s head. He did not think much about it at the start, but when he remembered that he had already been in Life and Death Realm when he entered the royal mausoleum in his previous life, he could not help the tremble of his heart. He suddenly regretted his letter asking the Three Lonely Wolves to bring their people into the royal mausoleum.

  “Little North! Big Brother Thunder!”

  Happy’s sudden solemn tone shocked the two, and they grew concerned.

  “The situation has changed. The two of you might have to stay outside!”

  “Huh? Why? Is it because of them? It’d be easy for us to get rid of that bunch of misfits,” Little North said quickly in alarm.

  The royal mausoleum was very attractive to him. Besides, their trip had been to practically perform a tomb robbery. It was exciting, and they could even kill the Japanese, which was why he had rushed over in such great excitement.

  Happy explained himself with a calm expression. “There is a time limit to the activation of the Living Door for the royal mausoleum’s Eight Trigrams Bewitching Matrix. Once it is missed, there is not entering on that day again. You saw it as well. We won’t be able to kill these people within a short while even if we attack together.”

  He paused for a moment, and faint killing intent showed up in his eyes.

  “But if we just let them loose outside, who knows what will happen when we go outside later? A slaughter might happen! If all of us go in, we won’t know what’s going on outside, that’s why I need the two of you outside. Keep an eye on them so that we can prevent anything happening outside.”

  After that explanation, Little North and Thunderous Battle quickly let go of the thought of going inside.

  \r \r \r

  There was no way anyone could know about the dangers in the royal mausoleum since it would be the first time they entered it. They also had no idea where they would come out from it. If they were ambushed when they came out, they would be caught off guard, and there was a high possibility that many of the players would die.

  Once Little North and Thunder Battle thought of it, they nodded in agreement.

  “Alright, be careful,” Thunderous Battle said seriously.

  Happy nodded and said, “Before I come out, I will send a messenger pigeon to you two. At that time, remember to attract their attention……”

  “Don’t worry.”

  When the two of them answered, their gazes landed on the group outside the royal mausoleum, and the temperature around them swiftly dropped by a few degrees.

  The moment they finished speaking, Happy stopped hesitating. He was worried about the safety of his sect members. With one tap, the bamboo leaves swayed, and he charged to the entrance of the royal mausoleum like a bird. Under the scorching sun, he flew above the people from Soaring Tiger Sect like a ghost. He was so fast that normal people would just think that a gust of wind had blown over their heads; it would be very difficult for them to catch him.

  “Who is it?!”

  It was only when Happy approached the entrance of the mausoleum and entered the people’s sight that someone finally noticed that something was wrong. That person cried out in surprise and exposed Happy’s presence.

  The expression of Soaring Tiger Sect’s boss, who was the bald man with the tattoo of the soaring tiger, changed drastically! With a loud thud, he got up from the ground and instantly moved around thirteen to sixteen feet. Two throwing knives left his grip. His timing was impeccable, and his accuracy was astonishing. His knives went flying toward the blue-robed person at the entrance of the royal mausoleum!

  Thud! Thud!

  The blue-robed man dodged at an astonishing speed. His body twisted in a bizarre angle, and at an even faster speed, he rushed into the royal mausoleum. The two throwing knives sank deep into the side of the entrance.

  The bald man’s attacks missed.

  He did not manage to kill him nor even obtain any information about the person. The boss of Soaring Tiger Sect snorted in great annoyance! This was especially so when he saw that the person had not lingered around the entrance like a normal person but had instead disappeared straightaway. He immediately knew that the person had to have an item that could allow him to calm his heart as well as a quest given by his sect. The bald man could not help but frown.

  “Boss!”

  A group of people rushed to his side.

  The bald man raised one of his hands. “It’s fine, he shouldn’t be someone from the seven system-allocated sects. He actually came alone? He sure is gutsy!”

  “But because of this, our whereabouts are exposed.” Someone was slightly worried.

  “Don’t worry.”

  The sect master of Soaring Tiger Sect seemed to have been prepared for it since a long time ago. “Since he isn’t someone from the seven system-allocated sects, we don’t have to worry. He won’t act together with them. Even if he really says it, no one will truly believe him. We’ll just continue waiting here. By the way, send a few people into the forest and search through the area. Arrange a few of our brothers to monitor it. If anyone comes, report to me immediately!”

  “Got it!”

  The people left after they received their orders, and the sect master of Soaring Tiger Sect scowled again.

  For some reason, he felt like he had seen that blue figure somewhere before. It was strangely familiar.

  *****

  In Hangzhou, a group of beggars dressed in rags walked out of Guanlin Temple while supporting each other. Soon, they attracted quite a number of people’s attention.

  The people of Beggar’s sect would seldom gather together for an operation. Besides, they were mostly unfamiliar faces and not the local beggars of Hangzhou. Hence, it was only natural that their appearance attracted quite a few people’s attention.

  Besides, a group of people dressed in flashy clothes also appeared after them. Their faces were pale, and they looked severely weakened. They were cursing under their breaths. Sometimes, when a group of disciples from Soaring Tiger Sect came out from inside, they would glare at them and begin cursing them.

  “How could you block my path?! Damn you!”

  “Get lost! The situation just now was incredibly chaotic! There’s no telling who was blocking whose path!”

  The people from Soaring Tiger Sect were cursed by the people from Beggar’s Sect, but they did not show any weakness either. They simply cursed back at them.

  While they cursed, another group of people was revived in Guanlin Temple, and their expressions were unpleasant. Some of them were even Wudang Sect disciples dressed in black and white Daoist robes.

  Within a short five minutes, more than one hundred people walked out of Guanlin Temple. The death rate terrified and shocked quite a lot of players who had also been revived. They began guessing that those people had to have run into something while they were carrying out the same quest.

  “Brother, how did you die?”

  “Ahem, I don’t want to talk about it. If I knew just how dangerous it was, I wouldn’t have gone there even if someone pointed a gun at my head. I just wasted my time and life…… Damn it, it actually hid over there and threw those hidden weapons.”

  “There were so many high-tier hidden weapons waiting to hit us. Who exactly could get through it?”

  “Ah……”

  The few Wudang Sect members sighed nonstop as well. They did not hold much hope for their brothers who were still alive inside.

  The players around became even more curious and began asking questions.

  A high mortality usually meant that there were equally astonishing rewards. The players were certain that the place where those people had gone to for their adventure was a very hidden place, and it was also bound to be a very dangerous region.

  Since they had become weaker after training, they felt disappointed. Hence, it was very easy for them to spill their hearts out. Besides, there were many sects involved in the quest, and they no longer felt that it was a secret, which was why when they were asked, a mysterious map for an area known as royal mausoleum soon spread through Hangzhou.
