565 Handing Over the Position Voluntarily (1/2)
'It's a pretense!'
When the group noticed that Lu Mingyue had suddenly retreated from Class One Hall's battlefield while Mu Clan's group took action to brazenly approached Dream Clouds and the rest of Class One Hall to take care of the evil cult elder, the dozens of elites watching not too far away finally understood Happy's real intention.
It was clear that he had taken a fancy of the evil cult elder that people from Class One Hall were fighting, but it was not convenient for them to go up and kill-steal straightaway, which was why he used Zhang Wuji's answer as a pretense to forcefully and righteously cut in in the name of helping those who walked down the same path as them.
At least Lu Mingyue was sensible.
Mu Clan was getting stronger day by day, and they were showing signs of replacing Class One Hall as the strongest sect in the game. Lu Mingyue knew that Cold Moon Palace could not provoke them, and he did not want to get involved in the fight between two gigantic forces, which was why he resolutely gave up on fighting against the evil cult elder to protect himself.
Without Lu Mingyue holding the evil cult elder back, the four from Class One Hall sensed a faint hint of pressure. It was clear that they were no longer as at ease as before.
When they saw Mu Clan's elites get closer to them, a hint of indignation and anger appeared in Blood Robes' eyes.
'They're bullying us! They're blatantly bullying us!'
Dream Clouds and Zhou Yu could see the solemnness and wariness in each other's eyes.
”Haha! Don't worry, we won't snatch the point, we just want some loot.”
Little North was basically a brain cell in Happy's mind, and he knew that getting points right then was completely useless for them, so when they drew closer to Class One Hall's people, he loudly explained their actions.
Because of it, Vast Heaven and his group felt a little more at ease! The group also appeared to be slightly less villainous in the other players' hearts.
After all, the people here were all top-class players in the game, and they were not lacking in equipment. Everyone was fighting for points, but Mu Clan said that they did not need points, so it was only natural that they received some other rewards for their hard work.
Little Norths' words allowed the other top players to relax. They were no longer wary of Mu Clan, and Class One Hall also got a good chance to extract themselves from the situation.
”Since our friends from Mu Clan are willing to help, I will gladly welcome it. Blood Robes, baldy, we'll retreat. Let them handle this evil cult elder.”
Dream Clouds reacted very quickly. She smiled with her eyes closed, which made her look very charming.
”None of us have any points, and even if we get one point, it won't be useful. Since Brother Lu gave up, we'll give up as well.”
Her words sounded very logical, and once she said them, it sounded as if they had not just attacked and occupied one evil cult elder for their own sect, but had helped Lu Mingyue. Because of it, it seemed like Class One Hall had not been bullied by Mu Clan, but once Lu Mingyue chose to give up, they left as well…
”This woman is indeed good.”
Wu Kuo, who was in the crowd, thought that Class One Hall would definitely suffer a huge blow. Only when they saw that the situation had actually taken a gentle turn and things resolved peacefully and the people from Class One Hall left in a smooth motion under Dream Clouds' orders so that Mu Clan could take over, he finally sensed just how powerful was Dream Clouds.
Phantasmal Shadow had a white veil over her face, as usual. She nodded slowly and gracefully, and her voice was airy and faint when she spoke. ”With Dream Clouds' rationality and calmness, she would definitely not clash head-on with Mu Clan within a short period of time. Giving up is the right action.”
She then paused for a moment and looked toward Happy, who had not taken any action and frowned. ”But that man is also very good. He actually used Zhang Wuji's answer as a pretense to interfere in a righteous manner and force Lu Mingyue to take the initiative to retreat. He's smart indeed.”
