“Baokang…”

“Happy…”

A few people held a secret meeting with the curtains down in one restaurant within Baokang County Town. Occasionally, they would say a few words that all of them found familiar.

The people at the table all had extraordinary presences. There was a monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a middle-aged man with a cold and callous face, a young man with lively eyes and a green foxtail in his mouth, as well as a girl with a fiery red robe and a golden whip at her waist.

“The situation in Baokang has changed, so I think that we’ll need to change our plans a little too.”

The person who spoke was the girl with the fiery red robe, and she swept her gaze over the others.

When the monk heard that, he quirked his thick eyebrows before chuckling coldly.

“Change what? I’ve mentioned a long time ago that we don’t need to bring Cold Moon Palace into this meeting. You don’t have the right to sit together with Class One Hall, Chivalry Sect, and Towering Palace just yet. You’re making a ruckus when something so minor happened, and you just keep complaining nonstop…”

By the time he finished speaking, the girl with the fiery red robe nearly placed a foot on the table. She pointed at Monk with Thick Eyebrows in a domineering manner.

“You stupid baldy! What are you saying?! Don’t you dare disregard Cold Moon Palace just because you have Class One Hall supporting you! Once my palace master arrives, I’ll have him sew your mouth shut!”

Even though Cold Moon Palace’s fame was not great, the attitude of the girl was clear. She looked as if she was about to call her boss over at any moment to kill the monk in front of her.

Monk with Thick Eyebrows opened his mouth, but he could not think of a way to retort to the girl when she behaved in such a manner.

The cold middle-aged man by the side and the young man with the green foxtail in his mouth cast their gazes outside the window in a show of great teamwork. They pretended that they did not see what was happening in front of them.

“Hmph!”

When the girl saw that the monk had been intimidated, she smoothed out her robe and sat down in her chair in a manner as if she had not had her fill of intimidating the monk just yet.

“How dare you look down on Cold Moon Palace?!” she said in disdain.

The monk said nothing, but he noticed that there was sinister amusement in the other two people’s eyes. He felt incredibly embarrassed, but he did not dare to begin shouting. There was no other reason but that the rumors said that the fiery girl’s master was Lu Mingyue, who was Cold Moon Palace’s master and the successor of Dongfang Bubai, who had shocked the World of Martial Arts some time ago.

He was a great elite who had inherited the Sunflower Manual!

He had built his palace not too long ago, but once he obtained the information that the three great sects wanted to work together to divide the resources in Shennongjia, he butted into the matter.

The masters behind the three top sects quietly agreed to it.

From that alone, it was clear that the three masters were very wary of Lu Mingyue’s ability.

However, Monk with Thick Eyebrows simply could not accept that.

After all, he was a chief in Class One Hall and a top-class professional player. Lu Mingyue was just a lucky bastard who got really lucky and obtained an ultimate technique. There was no need to even mention the person in front of him. She was just a girl who obtained the right to speak to them because of her boyfriend.

Cai Cai had only just reached Blessed Realm and had not even mastered a single high-tier martial art.

Originally, the four sides had come to an agreement that they would take action the next day and mobilize their own powers to clear Baokang County Town so that they could completely renew and occupy the resources points.

However, the secrets of the second level of the crystal mine being exposed made them push their plan back by a day, and immediately after that, Thunderous Battle and Little North appeared in Baokang and forcefully snatched the second level of the crystal mine from Blood River Sect. The even had shocked the group a lot.

The girl called Cai Cai reacted quickly and immediately contacted them. She suggested that they should change their plans, because unfortunately for them, Blood River Sect, which was an easy target, was meant for Cold Moon Palace!

Thunderous Battle had gone ahead and snatched what belonged to Cold Moon Palace, but Cai Cai was not someone who was stupid. She knew that her boyfriend’s only loss had been due to Happy, who was now very famous, and she immediately came to the conclusion that the originally easy target had become the most difficult target.

Cai Cai’s intentions were very clear. She wanted to switch resource points with Class One Hall.

It might have been because his bald image made him not as good-looking as the other two men beside him, or perhaps there was a different profound meaning behind her actions, but whatever the reason was, it had led to the matter then.

“Since Cold Moon Palace is so strong, why should you be afraid of those thieves?” Even though he was wary of Lu Mingyue, when it came to Class One Hall’s benefits, Monk with Thick Eyebrows did not want to switch resource points with Cold Moon Palace.

Cai Cai looked at him askance.

“Cold Moon Palace naturally has not developed as much as Class One Hall. If you have the ability to do so, go.”

The two stood in confrontation with each other.

On the side, the cold middle-aged man continued to sip his tea. He showed no intention to join the quarrel.

The young man with the green foxtail was slightly impatient, however. He raised his hand and interrupted the duo’s quarrel.

“Enough. Please calm down, both of you. Let me say this. Since Thunderous Battle has brought his people over, it’s clear that his goal is the same as ours. His target are the rich resources of Shennongjia, and he came prepared. His ambitions and vision are greater than ours when we first came here. His people might not be weaker than ours.”

When the cold middle-aged man heard those words, his expression changed slightly. Then, he put on a faint smile.

Even though he had not said anything, the other three did not miss his reaction. Monk with Thick Eyebrows immediately noticed it, and his expression darkened. “Blue as Water,” he said in displeasure, “I know that your sect has quite a good relationship with Happy and his group, but the distribution of resources this time affects the four sects’ benefits…”

“I never wanted to join this from the start. You only dragged me into this when you saw that I occupied a mine…” Blue as Water answered in a very calm manner. He sounded very stern.

“You’re really troublesome.” The young man with the green foxtail spread his hands with a resigned expression.

“All of you know that if Happy joins, he’ll meet us sooner or later. Even if we can’t solve the matter now, we’ll have to solve it later. Why don’t we just split up a portion of the resources for him.”

“You must be joking! Then are we supposed to hand over a portion of the resources whenever we meet someone who is rather famous in the future too? Are we trying to strengthen our sects or are we performing charity now?! Towering Palace, you’re handling this matter too casually. How could your people send someone who is immature to be in charge of this side…”

Monk with Thick Eyebrows rolled his eyes. He seemed to be very angry.

The person from Towering Palace did not seem to mind the monk’s appraisal of him. He continued to smile while saying, “So what? Chivalry Sect has a good relationship with Happy, and Thunderous Battle has already made full preparations on his side. What can you do? Seize the mines from his hands? I’m saying that we should give up on the mines and redistribute the resources.”

He cast a glance at Blue as Water, who had said nothing, and Monk with Thick Eyebrows instantly found himself at a loss.

This time, Cai Cai sneered coldly.

“Hmph! Don’t be too naive. We might have our plans, but how can you know whether Happy will be willing to work with us? How can you be certain that Thunderous Battle and his group only came for that one crystal mine? Will they be willing to give up on Shennongjia’s herbs and metal mines?”

There was quiet for a time.

“Happy has money and people on his side right now, and he is very ambitious! Since he sent his people over here without even notifying Chivalry Sect, are you certain that he doesn’t want to monopolize all of Shennongjia?”

The whole room instantly fell silent. Only Cai Cai’s voice alone could be heard.
