Chapter 647: Chapter 647 – Arrive at Towering Palace
Chapter 647: Arrive at Towering Palace
The headquarters of Towering Palace were set in a big city in the coastal area . Traveling was convenient there . There were a lot of martial artists who came from everywhere, and they were up to date on all news .
But recently, there were fewer people who came to Towering Palace . Even some of the foreign factions of power who previously had frequent contact with Towering Palace temporarily left the area .
Even though they had managed to find their footing in the Chinese server and earning quick money through trading with Towering Palace, they learned more as time passed . They gradually understood the situation in the server—there were four giants who stood at the top!
Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect basically occupied half of China .
At that moment, the giants were fighting, and if the small organizations were dragged in, they would just lose some blood if all went well, but if they got unlucky, they would find themselves trampled by the top-class sects . They would be reduced to ashes and no longer exist!
Hence, even though they had a close relationship with Towering Palace, they acted cautious in the Chinese server, because they were treading on thin ice .
“Business has been pretty slow recently, big sister . ” Musical Note stared at her older sister in worry while in the prison of Towering Palace .
“Right now, Mu Clan is frequently mobilizing their troops in various branches . Should we contact them and ask them to temporarily ease up on the tension? If they continue like this, it will not be good for our development . ”
“Do you think that I don’t want to?” Clear Music sighed . “This is an important turning point for Mu Clan! I was thinking about attacking to stop Mu Clan’s development while Happy was fighting against One Emperor so that we can grow stronger at an even faster pace and become the strongest sect in China .
“But I didn’t expect that Wind and Rain Alliance would act so impatiently and make the situation so tense . The people from Three Dragons Guild also contacted the people from Class One Hall and attacked Mu Clan…”

“Why did Class One Hall attack so soon? Dream Clouds doesn’t seem like someone so reckless . ”
“Of course Dream Clouds wouldn’t do something like that, but the limitations she’s suffering in the north are very great . If she doesn’t take action now and weaken Mu Clan as well as Chivalry Sect, Class One Hall will not have a chance to march south, because the fight at Mount Tai is actually nothing to Mu Clan . Sigh, Dream Clouds has actually thrown a wrench into the best development plan for Towering Palace . ”
Clear Music was rather troubled . “Wind and Rain Alliance caused too much of a ruckus, and Chivalry Sect mobilized all their forces to attack Abyss Tower . They might have already received instructions and support from Happy, or else, with Lin Xiao’s personality, he would not gather his men and settle things once and for all in such a resolute manner . He knows very clearly that a large-scale confrontation will deal great damage to Chivalry Sect . ”
Musical Note nodded quietly .
Chivalry Sect had always been rather restrained and gentle in their actions . Yet this time, they suddenly decided on a large-scale operation . Clearly, something had changed, and they decided to take a swift and ruthless action to end the conflict in the south .
Only Mu Clan would be able to affect Chivalry Sect’s actions . They were the only ones who could swiftly make the south calm down .
“But Three Dragons Guild failed in their ambush, and if Mu Clan truly wants to blame this on us, what should we do?”
“Don’t worry . Happy will not interfere with the battle in the south and the coastal area . Even if he could, he would not be able to fight . ”
When Clear Music said those words, Musical Note was still slightly worried .
‘Is it really that way?’
“Palace master! Palace master!”A nervous and urgent cry came from the entrance of the palace prison . “Bad news!”
“Look at you, why are you panicking?” Clear Music frowned and scolded the person in an awe-inspiring manner . “Hai Dongqing, you’re an elder of the headquarters right now . What exactly did you run into that would require you to shout like this?”

Hai Dongqing’s face was filled with anxiety . Even though he was scolded when he rushed in, the anxiety and nervousness on his face did not reduce even in the slightest . “Happy…”
Musical Note knew that Hai Dongqing liked her, and she also knew that he acted like an obedient kitten when he saw her older sister . Something unbelievable had to have happened for him to change, so her tone immediately became gentle . “Slow down and tell us what happened . ”
Clear Music noticed that something was off, and she temporarily stopped her training .
A snow white messenger pigeon flew in gently and landed on Clear Music’s shoulder .
Hai Dongqing used up a lot of strength to take a gulp of fresh air and pointed at the messenger pigeon on Clear Music’s shoulder .
“Happy’s…”
“What?”
The two women’s expressions changed .
Hai Dongqing finally calmed down his rapid breathing and enunciated his words clearly . “Happy is outside . ”
Clear Music said nothing . She paused in the middle of opening the letter, and shock appeared on her face .
“What did you say?”
Musical Note sucked in a sharp breath and arrived next to her older sister in a single step . She then craned her head to read the note in Clear Music’s hands .
[Apologies for coming without an invitation . I hope that you will grace me with your presence, Palace Master Music . ]
The words in the letter were very polite . She could not tell any signs of hostility or animosity .
But the words that Hai Dongqing said brought a pressure that came crashing into their faces .
“He said that he came here for the matter of the foreign organizations . He also mentioned that for politeness’ sake, he will ask for our intentions first, because we did mention that we won’t allow anyone to chase away the foreign organizations . He came here to ask whether we will fight Mu Clan’s intentions of chasing away Three Dragons Guild and stand up for them, or if we will stand on the sidelines and watch . ”
Silence fell among them for a while .
“What a great tactic . ”
“Happy, what a man . It’s no wonder why Class One Hall was defeated by him . ”
Clear Music’s expression was slightly dark and unpleasant .
Even though Happy sounded very gentle, and he had even politely asked for Towering Palace’s stance in the matter, he was actually retreating for the sake of advancing by forcing Towering Palace to choose their stance .
After all, without any proof that Towering Palace was working together with Three Dragons Guild, Mu Clan would not gain popular support if they attacked Towering Palace .
But Happy decided to take action via Towering Palace’s ban in the coastal area, forcing them to make a decision on whether they wanted to protect Three Dragons Guild or to watch from the sidelines .
If they chose the former, they would indirectly verify everyone’s guess that Towering Palace was connected to Three Dragons Guild, thus giving Mu Clan an excuse to attack them .
If they watched from the sidelines, then Towering Palace would be slapping themselves in the face . They would be destroying their own reputation . In fact, they would give the impression that they were the type to bully the weak and fear the strong .
What caused the two women to be even more frustrated was that if Happy had asked for it in any other way, Towering Palace could choose to delay the meeting and not give an answer .
But Happy had quietly appeared outside Towering Palace’s headquarters!
If Clear Music refused to meet him and give him an answer, Happy might look for an excuse to charge in and destroy Towering Palace’s foundation .
Neither Clear Music nor Musical Note said anything for a time .
The two women finally understood why Hai Dongqing had run to them in such great panic .
It was clear that Happy had come to force them to take action, and he intended to get a checkmate .
“Big sister!”
“We can’t care about anything else now . We’ll go out first and plan as we go . ”
Clear Music was caught off guard by Happy’s move, but she knew that she could not drag it out, so she decided to head out and see if anything came to mind on the way .
Musical Note and Hai Dongqing followed closely behind her .
