320 Astonishingly High Price (2/2)

But the miners did not dare discuss or mock them, and they just continued to lower their heads and mine the cave!

The group blocking the entrance of the chamber in the first level left after their shouts and bellows resulted in nothing after more than an hour. They only left behind a small group to stand guard at the nearest tunnel.

*****

Baokang County Town's third largest sect, Blood River Sect, was provoked by famous players. Around a dozen Mystical Realm players and a dozen miners had died by Thunderous Battle and Little North's hands. The news of it swiftly spread through Baokang County Town and Shennongjia!

The players who loved chaos naturally rushed ahead of each other to tell everyone they met about it. There were even people who narrated the event as if they had seen it personally. They said that there were only two people who fought in the fight since the start to the end of the battle.

While that was happening, the people who had followed Thunderous Battle into the second level of the crystal mine just concentrated on digging. When Blood River Sect split up to attack them, they could handle the situation, which revealed that the miners had outstanding skills too.

Soon, all sorts of rumors and players' assumptions filled the streets.

”Thunderous Battle came here prepared.”

”He has around ten Mystical Realm players with him. Snatching resources cannot be done in just one or two days. By the looks of it, Blood River Sect has lost this time. Their resource point has been taken away, and Thunderous Battle as well as his people will definitely not leave soon.”

”...I wonder if Happy is inside.”

”Hmm… those three have always been inseparable.”

”I bet Blood River Sect wouldn't dare to attack Happy even if they have a gun pointed at their heads…”

Many of the sects in Baokang County Town felt danger looming over their heads.

Ever since they verified that the people who occupied the second level of the crystal mine were indeed Thunderous Battle and Little North from Blood River Sect's master and that the other people with them also had extraordinary qi realms, they sensed a powerful undercurrent swirling around the news!

”Since they acted in such a flashy manner, they might be thinking about gaining a footing in Baokang…”

”If it's those two, they won't be easy to deal with. After all, they're Happy's friends. Last time, he destroyed Five Venoms for All-powerful Medicinal Stone, and they're not even that close. Who will even have the courage to attack Thunderous Battle and Little North?”

”Ech...”

The masters of the local sects felt incredibly troubled.

”You can consider Blood Rivers in Nine Heavens to be unlucky. He became the stepping for them to establish their might.”

Even though the local sects had formed an alliance with each other to work together to fight against all the powerful people who wanted to enter Baokang County Town and gain a footing there, such as Class One Hall, Towering Palace, and Chivalry Sect, they felt helpless and completely resigned against Happy, who had the ability and the courage to fight against a sect alone, destroy it, and still live completely without worry.

”Bastards!” Blood Rivers in Nine Heavens threw a tantrum in his headquarters after he received no help even when he had requested for reinforcements.

”Those bastards… They sure spewed some pretty words and said we'd fight together in the beginning, but when something happened to me, all of them became cowardly dogs and are just content with me making a fool of myself… Hmph! I'd like to see how long you can be free and at ease. Do you actually think that one crystal mine can satisfy their appetite?”

Blood Rivers in Nine Heavens had actually gathered quite a lot of information.

There were quite a lot of Beautiful Robes Faction members who joined Thunderous Battle to enter Baokang. After coming, they often went to the herbal grounds and other mines. What shocked him even more was that they were all elites with high-tier martial arts. They were either in Mystical Realm or Blessed Realm, and all of them had masterpieces with them. Beautiful Robes Faction could be considered to be a huge sect which had sent all of its elites out.

The people in Baokang County Town had yet to become agitated because the people from Beautiful Robes Faction as well as Thunderous Battle and Little North had yet to encroach upon their benefits, but once they took action, their force would be so great that even Jade Fox Palace, the strongest sect in the area, would not be able to stop them!
