729 Man in Black Visits (1/2)

The astonishing news of Mu Clan building their branch in Yangzhou spread through all of Changjiang on the day itself.

The news of Towering Palace's Musical Note and Clear Music personally coming over to interrogate Silver Wolf on the day the branch was built had also spread like wildfire. The hostile conversation caused quite a lot of unrest in the world of martial artists.

Many of the rather famous sect alliances secretly added forces to the coastal area.

If Mu Clan and Towering Palace decided to start a war, there was no need to mention that Mu Clan would be the one to profit from it.

But no matter what, Towering Palace had a lot of resources from various cities in the coastal area, and it would be difficult for Mu Clan to get all of them immediately. If the sect alliances mobilized their forces to pick what they missed, they would profit too.

After all, one resource point could bring great benefits to a normal sect, and if they could get a few of them, the resource points would ensure future development.

The sect alliances longed for Mu Clan and Towering Palace to immediately fight against each other so that they could profit from the chaos and gain some benefits.

But Towering Palace clearly did not have the determination to become enemies with Mu Clan, which shone as brilliantly as the sun. On the day Mu Clan built their branch in Yangzhou, their people just left resentfully with their faces red with rage.

But on that night, when the moon and stars were dim, something major happened in Yangzhou City.

*****

The mysterious man in black appeared once more in Yangzhou City. When he drew close to Mu Clan's branch, he was noticed by highly alert Mu Clan disciples.

”Who is it?!”

The Mu Clan disciples were all on high guard against Towering Palace to prevent them from doing something extreme. They left behind quite a number of their people inside and outside the branch. When the scouts on the outer defense line saw the man in black walk out from the darkness, they alerted their people inside the branch immediately.

Whoosh!

More than ten men jumped out from the entrance. Their gazes focused on the masked man who was dressed in a black shirt and pants and walked at a leisurely pace.

”My friend, you have come very late. Are you here to look for someone or to cause trouble?”

The group of Mu Clan disciples moved into battle position.

If the person brought good news, why would he be dressed like that and have his face covered at night?

The sounds of weapons being drawn could be heard.

The man in black stopped resolutely and cast a glance at the plate outside the branch. His eyes burned fiercely before he finally said, ”I'm here for both. Have Silver Wolf come out. Tell him that the man in black from Yangzhou Port has decided to fight against him.”

The expressions of the Mu Clan disciples changed.

Rumors about the man in black had flown all over the place. They said that his kick techniques had reached perfection and changed a lot of the people's views toward martial arts. It also brought about a trend of those who were not ranked on Dragon and Phoenix Ranks to challenge those who were ranked.

There was only one reason for the man in black to appear at the branch. He had definitely come to challenge Silver Wolf.

”Wait.”

A Mu Clan disciple who seemed to have quite a lot of prestige in Mu Clan scrutinized the man in black a little before he turned his head around to give orders for his friends to put away their weapons. Then, he turned around and went back into the branch.

When the man in black noticed that the Mu Clan disciples had put away their weapons, a bit of emotion appeared in his eyes, which were so calm that nothing in the world seemed to be able to affect them.

'As expected of Mu Clan!'

Even when there was someone powerful coming to challenge them, they showed a great degree of calmness and composure. They put away their weapons and became relaxed. Not only did this show great discipline and order, their expressions showed great confidence toward Silver Wolf.

'They're this confident about him?'

The man in black narrowed his eyes slightly. When he noticed the surge of emotions in his heart, he shut his eyes again.

Time trickled by like a flowing stream of water.
