Chapter 914 - Use Superior Military Tactics, Then Move to Diplomacy, And Do Two Things at the Same Time (2/2)
Judging by what Happy meant just now and his attitude to the forces of power who affiliated themselves to Class One Hall, after he got out of the door, these people might not end up in a good condition.
Happy opened his mouth, seemingly with the intention to continue talking. Everyone instantly held their breaths to listen, and they did not dare miss even a single word.
After Happy controlled Responsible Hero, he looked outside the door, and his clear voice carried with it great confidence and a domineering tone that affected countless people. “Vice Hall Master Barren, since you have already stated that you will fight against Mu Clan to the end, then I might as well get straight to the point too.”
The inside and outside of the hall immediately became quiet.
Under the group of people’s anxious, uneasy, expectant, and complicated gazes, Happy leisurely had the palace made beside him pour him wine before he looked up. “This time, one of my goals for entering Beijing is to destroy Class One Hall—”
“How conceited.” Barren Murderer clenched his teeth together, but was unable to hold himself back from spitting out those words.
As Happy looked over with a mocking gaze, Barren Murderer instantly snorted before he looked elsewhere.
“We will soon know whether I am conceited or not.”
“My second goal in entering Beijing is because I do not want my arrival to cause Beijing sink into chaos and stir up too much upheaval and slaughter. Hence, this time, I asked Master Wandering Know-it-all to come out of seclusion to search for suitable allies for me. I suppose all of you know that Mu Clan has a system that is specially tailored for us to work with our allies, and the details should be very clear.”
“Ally?”
“Boss Happy, I wonder what are your requirements when you search for an ally.”
“That’s right. Do you have a detailed standard?”
“White Horse Sect has thirty thousand people and four branches. Is that enough to be your ally?”
“There’s also Clear Wind Sect—”
“We…”
As Happy revealed his second goal, most of the people by the twenty-four tables in the front yard became worked up. They took the initiative to ask questions and asked to become Mu Clan’s ally.
The rising and falling waves of sound practically overturned Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion.
Barren Murderer and his group instantly had their faces turn pale. When they saw more than one hundred sect leaders eagerly and proactively asking to work together with Mu Clan, everyone looked dejected, as if they were about to be destroyed, and they also panicked, as if the trend where they were in power was now gone.
They did not expect that Happy will deal such a powerful killing move.
Before he even obtained Beijing, he already gave off the air that Beijing was already in his control and that he was the master of the place.
There were plenty of sects in Beijing, and the factions of power were highly complicated, because there were not many resource points, that was why even Class One Hall only controlled the core regions as well as a group of sects who looked rather powerful.
However, the remaining sects had clearly all decided to join Happy.
Barren Murderer finally understood Happy’s scheme in holding a feast in Beijing this time!
A cold chill crept down his spine.
If Happy truly managed to gather all this power into his hands, Mu Clan can easily enter Beijing and take control over it without even seeing a drop of blood spilled!
Class One Hall had intended to make Mu Clan use up most of their power in Beijing so that they will not have the strength to head west, but now, their plan was instantly ruined.
Barren Murderer was rendered speechless, and his expression was incredibly dark.
A few people were even already looking back and forth between Barren Murderer and Happy with sparkling eyes, and they felt incredibly anxious as well as conflicted.
Responsible Hero, who was beside Happy, naturally saw this scene, and he was filled with even more admiration toward Happy.
When he thought about it now, if he had drawn his sword and killed just now, he might already be chased out of Beijing by the elites in the palace before he can kill a whole lot of people. Then, he will just make himself laughing stock for Class One Hall and the sects affiliated to them.
But with just a few words, not only did Happy completely destroy their arrogance and the strongest pillar they depended on for their survival, he even placed himself in the most beneficial spot.
Now, no one can stop Mu Clan from taking over Beijing and setting up their branch here.
*****
“If you are able to come here as Master Wandering Know-it-all’s guests for the banquet, then it means that you have already met the requirements. Since all of you are here, you are naturally one of the allies I am looking for!”
Happy’s words not only chased away most of the fear and uneasiness within many of the sect leaders, at the same time, they also puffed out their chests in greater pride.
Some of the people were even more excited.
If they posted these words online and let their sect members see that Happy took the initiative to invite them to become his ally as well as work with them, they will definitely feel incredibly honored.
“Everyone, if you’re willing to, please write down your names after the banquet and make prior preparations. Since we are allies, we will definitely defend our territories and attack our enemies together. Please cooperate with Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect in our grand projects!”
“Alright!”
“Master, remember my name, I am from White Horse Sect—”
“Me too!”
“I’m—”
A group of people could no longer wait. They began reporting their names, and the situation was incredibly chaotic.
In the end, Wandering Know-it-all, who was already prepared for this a long time ago, ordered his thirty-six disciples to take action. Each of them took out pen and paper and went to each table to write names. It was only by doing so that they managed to calm down the frenzy among the people.
Happy looked away, and his gaze returned to Barren Murderer, whose face was pale and was prepared to have his subordinate send a messenger pigeon. He did not stop him but smiled faintly and said, “Vice Hall Master Barren, looks like you and everyone else have already agreed that I have the right to take over Beijing now. In truth, I already know what you’re currently thinking of doing.
“Half an hour, the resistance against Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect in the cities in the north have become much weaker, and quite a number of people have already left Beijing. Is Hall Master Dream thinking about leaving without saying goodbye to me?”
Happy’s thought-provoking laughter caused many people’s expressions to change while they remained seated. They stared at Barren Murderer incredulously.
