Chapter 968: Contact Wandering Know-it-all

“Happy? You’re Happy?” Wind Chimes widened her eyes and sized up the mysterious young man in front of her carefully with a strange gaze, as if she wanted to get to know her savior once more. “You’re the Happy who’s said to have laid comatose in bed for one and a half years?”

Happy smiled wanly and bent down to pick his loot. He answered, “Since you mentioned a comatose patient, then I do think that you’re talking about me.”

“Oh, pardon me. I didn’t do it on purpose. My master just mentioned you constantly over the past few days, and that’s why I blurted out your name out of shock.” It was only then that Wind Chimes thought that her words were a little hurtful, and she quickly explained.

When he heard this, Happy was stunned, and his expression changed. “Wandering Know-it-all talked about me with you? I didn’t expect that I’d still be regarded so highly… What did he say?”

“My master actually admires you quite a bit.”

Once she learned of Happy’s identity, Wind Chimes’ last suspicion in her heart was cleared. She did not interrupt Happy while he picked up his loot either, and just used an incredibly admiring glance to stare at a certain someone while he bent down to grope at corpses. “My master said that waking up from a nightmare and betrayal lasting for one and a half years and even quickly getting back on your feet will require you an iron will. He even said that there is not even a need for him to even use Universe Secrets Inkstone to determine that Blood Alliance and Class One Hall’s days of living a carefree life in the Chinese server are numbered now, because they made an enemy out of someone like you…”

‘This Wandering Know-it-all is truly not a simple person!’ Happy thought solemnly and said, “Looks like I have quite the positive image in Wandering Know-it-all’s mind. That’s good… I wonder if I can ask for a discount when I trade with him in the future.”

“Ah! I’ll tell my master about you right now.” Wind Chimes seemed to have suddenly remembered something and cried out, “Your Killer Star effect is about to disappear soon, I think. I’ll have my master include you in the five elements.

“I’ve long since considered Class One Hall and Blood Alliance an eyesore. They’ve never fought at full strength against Wild Wolves, and they also seem to be holding secret trades with Wild Wolves.”

While she spoke, she quickly wrote a letter before releasing it.

The unintentional leak of information from Wind Chimes caused Happy to frown.

“Class One Hall and Blood Alliance are working with Wild Wolves? Is this information real?”

“It’s precisely because I don’t have information that I didn’t dare say anything in the past, but this time, Wild Wolves managed to sneak into the Chinese plains to attack me, and they even managed to hide here for more than a month. I am about seventy percent sure that it’s because Blood Robes and Dream Clouds are working with Wild Wolves.

“If they didn’t have a sect with a powerful core supporting them, they will definitely not be able to hide from Universe Secrets Inkstone!”

Wind Chimes’ cold expression caused Happy to find it hard for him to connect her with the other Wind Chimes. This Wind Chimes had a wisdom in her that allowed her to see through everything, along with a presence about her which allowed her to be independent.

“Then, you’re saying that you don’t have proof.”

Happy sounded a little disappointed.

If he had proof, then Blood Alliance and Class One Hall will soon be torn apart!

“This time, let’s see whether they will help those three escaping refugees from Wild Wolves flee from the Chinese server. If they dare help them, they will definitely leave traces of their aid behind.”

Wind Chimes was very confident toward Wandering Know-it-all.

As she spoke, the messenger pigeon returned into Wind Chimes’ hands.

She opened the letter and took a peek at it. Then, she looked at Happy with a strange glance. “My master has already included you in the five elements. Now, normal diviners will have a hard time figuring out your whereabouts and your information, but he asked us to immediately head to Gusu City. He also asked you to add him as a friend because he wants to talk to you alone.”

There were only a few people in the Chinese server who could make Wandering Know-it-all take the initiative to add them as a friend.

This was the first thing that shocked Wind Chimes.

But Happy seemed to have expected this. He got up calmly and nodded.

“My bamboo raft is nearby.”

At that moment, Wind Chimes seemed to have suddenly understood why her master chose to add Happy as a friend.

When Happy became quiet, he gained a relaxed presence, as if he cared about nothing at all, and it was rather similar to Wandering Know-it-all’s.

*****

This was the first time Happy exchanged letters with Wandering Know-it-all in this world. But Happy no longer felt excited or worked up.

Perhaps it was because after experiencing so many things, he felt incredibly calm.

Aside from thanking him, Wandering Know-it-all told Happy once again that he had already included Happy into the Five Elements Matrix in Universe Secrets Inkstone. From now on, everything about Happy would be a mystery, and it will be hard to figure him out. Unless the diviner’s divination skill surpassed Wandering Know-it-all’s and reached the heights of people such as Gui Guzi and Old Heaven Secrets, no one would be able to figure out where Happy was or gather any information about him, and that included the Prophet.

[Even the Prophet can’t find me?] Happy remained silent for a while before he replied.

This was because in the other world, he remembered that the Prophet had the ability to break concealments, but he did not have the ability to create concealments, or else, Wei Zhentian would not have been able to find him at Mount Song, and neither would the people from Class One Hall be able to locate him.

Wandering Know-it-all remained silent for a few minutes before he wrote a reply. There were only a few words on the letter. [You know the Prophet?]

Happy instantly smiled wanly. It was only then that he remembered that the Prophet had never shown his face to the people in this world. There was not a single bit of information about him in the outside world.

But since he already mentioned him, he could only try to mend the situation with his subsequent words. [I heard about him a little.]

This time, Wandering Know-it-all replied quickly, [As expected of the former top sixteen in the world. In the beginning, many people said that you’re just a brute of a hero from the Chinese server. You don’t have any organizations or forces of power supporting you. By the looks of it now, it seems like that information is slightly inaccurate.]

[I’m currently not paying much attention to the Prophet. My attention is only on myself, Blood Alliance, and Class One Hall.]

Happy was worried that Wandering Know-it-all would discuss this with him, and at that time, he would be making mistakes left, right, and center. It would be bad if they ended up souring their relationship.

Wandering Know-it-all replied, [Alright, we won’t talk about the Prophet. I’ve long since known that you aren’t on good terms with Blood Alliance, and Class One Hall. This time, you helped my disciple, Wind Chimes. I originally wanted to have you just send her to Suzhou and hand her to my people, but now, I suddenly want to make a deal with you.]

[That depends on what sort of deal we’re talking about.]

[You know as well as I do that once a person dies, the Killer Star effect on him will also disappear naturally. Just now, I’ve already found out where the three Wild Wolves reside in the Chinese server. They’re in Gusu City.

[I know that this is very rude of me, but while I am familiar with the sects in Suzhou, I also know that Wild Wolves have a lot of Illusion Life and Death Pills with them. If we force those Wild Wolves to a corner, even if those sects lose thousands of people, they might not be able to kill those people. That’s why I’m thinking of having you help me kill them.]

When he saw the words on the letter, Happy could not help but laugh while he sat at the front of the bamboo raft. [No matter what, I am Wind Chimes’ savior, and now, you’re hiring me to kill someone? It’s not very appropriate to ask someone who saved someone else to kill, is it? Just now, I can be considered to have helped her because I saw injustice on the road while I traveled, but now, I’ll be taking the initiative to go find them. I’m worried that I’ll be ambushed by Wild Wolves while traveling about in the future.]

[You have me, Wind Assault Tower, and One Emperor in the Chinese server. As long as we’re here, Wild Wolves won’t dare to expand their forces in our land brazenly and fearlessly. They also won’t dare to readily step foot into the Chinese server.]

[But your disciple just told me that Wild Wolves might be working with Blood Alliance and Class One Hall.]

[That’s why I sought for your cooperation.]

After exchanging a whole load of nonsense, Wandering Know-it-all finally revealed his intentions.

[It’s not impossible for me to work with you, but what benefits do I get? As an ally, I should get some benefits, right?]

[What benefits do you want to get? As long as I can help you with it, you can ask it of me.] Wandering Know-it-all’s blank check caused Happy to be speechless.

Then, he came to a swift realization.

Wandering Know-it-all might be completely enraged by Wild Wolves now, and both were like oil and water, to the point that their hostility had already reached a very dangerous degree. Right now, Wandering Know-it-all was in a hurry to find a capable ally, which was why he could be so bold and uncaring about his offer.

After thinking about it for a moment, Happy replied in his letter, [I was waiting for those words. You can ask me to fight against Wild Wolves, but now, my main targets are still Blood Alliance and Class One Hall. I need to know some of the major events and operations Blood Alliance and Class One Hall host, along with the places Dream Clouds, Blood Robes, as well as their higher ups frequent.]

Happy exchanged letters with Wandering Know-it-all for more than one hour.

Wind Chimes watched the messenger pigeons fly back and forth while she sat at the back of the raft, and she felt she was almost dazzled. She had never noticed that her master was such a chatterbox.

After resting for more than an hour at the bamboo raft, her body had already recovered. Her Sky Demon Zither was placed horizontally on her knees. While the raft sailed over the sparkling lake that was filled with a poetic scenery, she wanted to play her zither, but she was worried that would interrupt Happy. Yet when she wanted to talk to someone, no one talked to her.

When she finally found someone to talk to her, that person ended being the ferryman who was over fifty.

“Young master, the port is ahead of us. If you take the government-made road from the port, you’ll be able to reach Gusu City soon.”

*****

They traveled by water for one hour, then another hour by road before they finally reached Gusu City.

When he reached Gusu City once more, he walked into the city through the old city gate, and he saw the familiar streets displayed within his field of vision, and Happy felt a somber feeling settle in him, which was something rarely seen of him. A sting burned his eyes, and he sighed in melancholy.

Happy then stopped in front of a grand manor subconsciously.

As he stared at the familiar steps, plate, and the people at the door, Happy heaved a long sigh.

“Hey, are you alright?” Wind Chimes’ voice rose from his side and broke the sentimental feelings in Happy.

He shook his head slightly but said nothing.

This was the Murong Clan, Gusu City’s aristocratic clan, and a clan that no one in the game did not know about.

Even though he was a Shaolin Temple disciple in this world, he was a Murong Clan disciple in the other world for one and a half years, and he already had deep feelings for the Murong Clan.

Right now, the Murong Clan still occupied a prominent position in Gusu City, but while the building was the same, the people inside were different. When he stood outside the gate, he felt old, like an old man who had youth right in front of him, but could not get it no matter what.

“Let’s go.”

Happy had just come here because of a sentimental wave had randomly settled in him, which led to his heart pounding for some weird reason. He did not think about going inside to look. He cast a glance at Wind Chimes and walked forward.

But at that moment, steady footsteps rose from within the Murong Mansion.

“Madam Wang, please come often in the future. Our lady has not returned from her trip just yet, and we truly apologize. Once she comes back, she will surely personally go to Mantuo Villa to visit you.”

“Elder Huang, you speak too seriously. I will see myself out now.”

By pure coincidence, Happy stopped and turned around.

Then, he saw a group of people walk just in time out of the Murong Clan’s gates, and he was also just in time to see a petite figure sit on the sedan chair outside the mansion.
