770 Order to Restrict Force (1/2)

'Why are the people from the imperial court here?'

Happy had three years worth of experience in the game from his previous life. When he saw the Embroidered Uniform Guards charge over with great fanfare and with serious expressions. He frowned slightly, and a hint of surprise shone in his eyes.

In his previous life, the imperial court will rarely be involved in the fights in the world of martial artists.

Even though Embroidered Uniform Guards, Eastern Depot, Western Depot, and Six Doors produced quite a number of martial artists, most of them had the identities of wanderers. They also wandered about the land, and it was rare that they would just come into Yangzhou with just a large group of people.

They only did this in a few major events in Happy's previous life!

Besides, every time the imperial court sent people over, those that they deployed were very strong, and they were much stronger than the ones sent during capture quests.

”...Embroidered Uniform Guards?”

”Why are they here?”

A large group of players outside the headquarters made way. At the same time, they began to secretly guess the purpose of these Embroidered Uniform Guards' visit while they sized them up as they rode past the players on their horses and carriages.

These Embroidered Uniform Guards came on horses and carriages, and they rode past them with an aggressive momentum. All of them had an extraordinary foundation in martial artists. They looked around with burning eyes, and all of them exuded the cold and awe-inspiring presence of someone who had already gone through numerous fights and spilled countless blood.

”Damn… Looks like there's none who are below Inaction Realm.”

”Are they going to interfere with the matter at Towering Palace's headquarters?”

”Who knows?”

While the people talked about this, quite a number of players cast sidelong glances at each other. The Towering Palace members' eyes were filled with hope.

The Embroidered Uniform Guards were indeed heading straight toward them!

When people no longer had any power to turn the tides in a desperate situation, when they saw any sort of power interfere, they will be filled with beautiful hope.

As the Embroidered Uniform Guards stood uniformly outside Towering Palace's headquarters, the atmosphere nearby instantly turned strange, and it was filled with paranoia.

The crowd cleared out a path.

An old eunuch with fair and smooth skin got down from a horse with a swagger, and he held a yellow object in his hands.

A gentle voice traveled clearly through all of Yangzhou. Then, the voice also spread through the entire plains in China.

”The emperor has received orders from heaven, and he now issues a decree to the world.

”That is all!”

All of Yangzhou City instantly burst into commotion!

Everyone stared at the eunuch who put away the royal decree.

And they saw that once the eunuch put away the royal decree, his gaze suddenly turned cold while he surveyed the area and said, ”You heard it. Next time, any of you uncultivated sects want to fight, fight far away from our sights. It'll be best if you do not do it in the cities, or else, if you dare defile the emperor's ears again and displease His Majesty… Hmph!”

Once he finished speaking, he said nothing else and led his group of people away.

The group came with a mighty momentum, and they left just as mightily. They did not bring anything else with them.

But a lot of astonishing changes happened in many places.

Bang!

A window at a restaurant that was bustling with activity was suddenly torn. Someone from the floors above was sent flying violently out to the streets.

Before that person got to his feet, a few people chased after him from the restaurant. They quickly surrounded that person on the ground.

”Hand over that item, and we, the Five Tigers of Qilian, will spare you, or else… Hmph! Don't even think about having a peaceful time in the game in the future!”

”You… Don't go overboard!”

The person who was surrounded got up to his feet with grief and indignation.

”Hmph, so what if we're bullying you? You're alone, and you can't even protect that treasure. Instead of letting others benefit from it, it's better if we're the ones who benefit from it.”

Right when one among the Five Tigers of Qilian finished speaking, they suddenly heard intense and urgent sounds of horse hooves rushing toward them.

Clop clop! Clop clop!
