21 Small Black House (1/2)

”Eldest senior brother!”

Soon after he returned to the game, Happy heard a strange address when he walked through the front yard, but he did not pay any attention to it. He continued walking forward until someone caught up to him from behind.

”Eldest senior brother.”

It was only then that Happy realized that the person had been calling him. With a weirded out expression, he stopped, turned around, and stared at the man who had caught up to him. He was not unfamiliar with his face. He was a disciple who was in charge of chopping wood in the front yard, and he had yet to be taken into the clan as a real disciple.

”Are you calling me?”

”Yes, eldest senior brother. You're the first disciple in the Murong Clan, so it's only natural that you're our eldest senior brother! I've also just been taken in as a member of the Murong Clan by the butler. The butler asked me to learn from you, eldest senior brother.”

The excitement on the man's face could not be hidden. He stared at the boy before him dressed in blue robes with his hand holding onto the Noble Sword and saw in him an elegant martial artist who wandered the lands. He did not care that he was older than the person before him. His eyes sparkled while he explained his reason for intruding upon him.

”Ah… ahaha. You flatter me. And you are?”

”Whirlwind Young Li. Senior brother, you can just call me Young Li Zi.” Young Li spoke as if he was a machine gun, but he also had the boldness and heroism of a wandering martial artist, which left a good first impression on Happy.

He nodded and said, ”I'm really not worthy of being known as your senior brother. My name is Happy, you can just call me Hap—”

”Alright, Eldest Senior Brother Happy!”

When he saw that his eldest senior brother did not put on airs, Young Li was even more excited. He addressed him by his name and title very seriously, and his earnest expression made Happy not know whether he wanted to laugh or cry.

Young Li then told him that he had received a quest to go out of the city. Happy nodded and agreed to chat with him while they did so.

”Eldest senior brother, no one can win against your fame in Gusu City!” Young Li's respectful tone and words stunned Happy.

”Fame? What fame?” Happy asked, curious.

He had been busy practicing his knife throwing technique lately, so he truly did not know that he had already received the title of Blue-robed Noble Sword User and Eldest Senior Brother of the Murong Clan. And those titles were acknowledged by all the players in Gusu City.

”Wow, you really don't know about it?”

Young Li looked at him with an exaggerated expression and let slip the information he had received over the last couple days. As it was becoming normal, he talked like a machine gun.

”Two Bloody Heroes came to Gusu City for a few days and challenged around a dozen pros. They were really cool, but both lost to your sword. They ran back to wherever they came from crestfallen a few days ago, so don't tell me that you aren't the reason for their departure.

”Also! There are very few people who can handle the rascals and ruffians in the taverns outside the city, but every single time you can retreat safely. Some people even said that you're using them to practice your martial arts. Someone also said that with your current abilities, you could easily complete the mission from the tavern and defeat those rascals.

”Do you want to tell all those are fabricated?”

”Two Bloody Heroes?”

Soon, Happy linked the title to Wu Hou and Luo Xiaotian, whom he had defeated on the road. He reckoned that it was their nickname, but he did not know that they had already challenged around a dozen experts in Gusu City...

But once he thought about it from another angle, he found that those people could actually not be called experts at all. They were all a bunch of greenhorns. Why were they pretending to be experts?

But when he heard Young Li talk about the rascals and ruffians, Happy could not help but be troubled!

He did not think that the other players would notice it so soon. It would seem that he would not be able to have exclusive rights to the rascals and ruffians in the future. When he thought about this, he could not help but find this matter regrettable.

”Haha, Eldest Senior Brother Happy, you're not disagreeing with my words, so you're acknowledging them, right? I knew it. The Murong Clan is the strongest in all of Gusu City. Heh heh, by looking at your deeds, I knew I came to the right place, eldest senior brother.”
