Chapter 1048: Happy Died?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Evil Emperor stopped moving!

Wind Assault Tower’s Wu Kuo and the others sighed in relief at the same time, and they put on disbelieving and delighted expressions.

None of them expected that Happy would bring them so many surprising news in succession.

Evil Emperor, the strongest in the world, had repeatedly failed in killing Happy. Instead, Happy used his environment to kill more than one hundred elites from Class One Hall. The aces and the people remaining in the headquarters were decreasing by the minute, and it was already very difficult for them to pose any threat to Wind Assault Tower.

Even though the pressure brought by Evil Emperor was still around, since Happy held him back, Wind Assault Tower felt that the situation was still progressing in a pretty good direction.

Wu Kuo heard the people around him sending out relieved words nonstop.

“That guy… It’s no wonder why the tower master would be so at ease and have the courage to leave the headquarters for such a long period of time…”

“If this continues, once One Emperor and our tower master returns, we might have a chance to force Evil Emperor to retreat and chase him out of the Chinese server!”

Many Wind Assault Tower members had the dejectedness and pressure they had half a month ago disappear. Their faces were flushed red with excitement, their morale was high, and their confidence increased!

The other three directions had killed more than thirty thousand Class One Hall members, and while their morale was high, they viciously sent back the people who had advanced to the point that they were ninety-eight feet away from the walls of the headquarters.

At that moment, anyone could tell that Wind Assault Tower’s morale was great. They did not appear to be in a perilous situation just because Evil Emperor showed up.

But right then, Wu Kuo stood at the back of the crowd, and in his hand was a white piece of paper. His expression was incredibly dark, and after he read the letter twice, he sucked in a deep breath.

It was only then that he received a letter from Phantasmal Shadow.

The situation was not good.

Phantasmal Shadow originally left to persuade the remaining four Beijing sects to help, and she did not expect that the four sects would be so hesitant in making their decision when imminent danger was around the corner. They did not respond to Phantasmal Shadow and Wandering Know-it-all urging them to take action and immediately gather their forces. Meanwhile, quite a number of Blood Alliance members and members from the twelve other Beijing sects appeared around these four sects.

This meant that Phantasmal Shadow’s persuasion had failed.

It was impossible for the four Beijing sects to send reinforcements within a short amount of time.

What worried him even more was that Phantasmal Shadow had made a wrong judgment when she asked how much time One Emperor would need to return to Beijing.

One Emperor would need at least forty minutes before he could return, but Evil Emperor had already appeared.

This was Phantasmal Shadow’s judgment: even with Happy around, Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters would not be able to last so long, which was why she decided to wait until One Emperor returned to Beijing, and she would then gather forces to attack Class One Hall from outside.

She did not expect that Happy would force Evil Emperor to be unable to attack him multiple times, and now, she regretted her decision. She wanted to return to the headquarters to command the battle, but the area was locked down tight, and she could not get close to Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. She could only lead a group of her friends to wait in a restaurant nearby.

Wu Kuo found himself unable to say anything about it. He could only feel as if his heart was bleeding.

Even though Happy had currently brought them time to catch their breaths and had even helped turn the tides a little for Wind Assault Tower, Evil Emperor would definitely not let them have forty minutes to wait for One Emperor to come back.

Besides, those Class One Hall elites who died would soon rush over from the nearest Guanlin Temple, and by then, Wind Assault Tower would still have to bear great pressure. At that time, even Happy would not be able to save the situation alone!

An elder nearby turned his head around and saw that Wu Kuo was holding a letter in his hand. His eyes immediately lit up. “Vice Tower Master Wu, is that a letter from the tower master? What did she say? When is she coming with reinforcements?”

Wu Kuo looked away and sucked in a deep breath before he shouted loudly with a tone that was rather calm, “The tower master asked us to continue persevering! Her reinforcements have already arrived outside, and they’re waiting for a chance. She has also contacted multiple heroes from various sects all around the Chinese server! Once One Emperor returns, the time will be ripe! The tower master will then launch a fierce attack from outside against One Emperor!”

He stopped talking for a moment before Wu Kuo shouted even louder, “Brothers and sisters, that’s why we must continue protecting the headquarters and fight for more time for the tower master!”

“AYE!” The people responded.

Wu Kuo’s white lie caused the people in Wind Assault Tower to have even greater morale. Their arrows flew in the air, and they managed to stop countless enemies in three directions outside.

The situation in the hall also slowly turned better. As Happy held back Class One Hall’s aces and Evil Emperor, more Class One Hall members were forced to retreat outside the headquarters. Wind Assault Tower was gradually able to retrieve their lost territory.

By the looks of it, Wind Assault Tower was gradually able to regain control over the situation.

This scene caused many Class One Hall members to feel a little dejected.

But many players in the streets were worried.

Over the past few minutes, Happy might have helped Wind Assault Tower temporarily gain quite the good condition to fight and slowly turn the tables a little, but this was just temporary.

At that moment, Dream Clouds was rapidly mobilizing her troops in the streets and on the roofs!

The dead aces had returned swiftly from Guanlin Temple, and they stopped around Dream Clouds. All of them had already returned to their peak.

Thousands of archers had formed two square formations on the empty spot right in front of Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters. They were ready to fight, and it was clear that they would not allow the gap they created in the defense line to close and the defense line to regain their footing.

Also, more than ten Five Venoms elites who had disappeared for a period of time had come out of the crowd. Under Proud over All Life’s lead, they showed up outside Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters.

As of now, it was clear that they did not need to use Ten Thousand Poison Matrix to fight against Wind Assault Tower. Ten Thousand Poison Matrix could also not threaten them, but the personal combat strength within the Twelve Gu Poison Disciples was pretty extraordinary. They could be considered as top-class elites on the battlefield. In fact, they could create unexpected results while they fought.

There was a sea of elites gathered outside Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters!

All this was seen by Phantasmal Shadow and multiple martial artists!

Everyone’s expressions turned much more solemn. They could sense that Dream Clouds had become serious with how dark her expression was, and she was planning as well as detailing the steps for an even stronger offense!

“Looks like Dream Clouds is prepared to deal a powerful blow.”

“Immediately notify Wu Kuo and have him prepare beforehand.” Phantasmal Shadow had a human skin mask over her face in the restaurant. She stared worriedly at her headquarters, which was vague in the distance, and her tone was firm.

“Also, continue contacting the four sect masters. Tell them the situation here in detail. The Chinese server has not lost yet! Have them make their decision quick!”

Phantasmal Shadow knew what those four were worried about, and she also knew that they will absolutely not want to take a gamble for Wind Assault Tower with their heads and all their benefits. However, she did not want to give up on the slightest opportunity. Once the four sects decided to join the fight, even though it might not be able to make her the victor, at the very least, her chances of winning would be increased by twenty percent!

“Tower master, don’t worry. Vice Tower Master Wu is doing pretty well right now. Evil Emperor has been around for a long time, and Class One Hall is being chased out slowly. We might be able to last until One Emperor arrives!” Someone cast a worried glance as Phantasmal Shadow paced around and tried to comfort her.

Phantasmal Shadow smiled bitterly and shook her head. “The fact that we have lasted for so long has nothing much to do with Wu Kuo. He’s my big brother, would I not know how good he is? I left him in the headquarters to placate them and also increase their morale during critical moments. He’s only doing what I told him to do, but I didn’t expect that Evil Emperor would arrive so soon. He didn’t even give me a chance to prepare.

“Fortunately… Happy is in the headquarters, and his strength has exceeded my expectations. If it weren’t for him, the battle at our headquarters would have ended a long time ago.”

Once she said this, Phantasmal Shadow sighed softly. “In truth, when Wandering Know-it-all and One Emperor told me about it, I didn’t quite believe them, but now, if I can reverse time and have One Emperor as well as Happy work together, while I might not talk about them being able to fight against Evil Emperor, but at the very least, I have a seventy percent chance of taking the initiative to attack and chasing Evil Emperor out of the Chinese server!”

The people beside here were stunned silent when they heard this.

They did not expect that Phantasmal Shadow’s assessment for Happy would be so high!

“Unfortunately, I already missed my chance. Dream Clouds must have already noticed Happy’s strength as well and knows what sort of threat he can bring to the operation this time.”

Phantasmal Shadow scowled. “Next, if I am Dream Clouds, I will fight on three fronts. I will use the Gu poison users to open another gap and continue sending people to the front to work together with Evil Emperor to create pressure on Wind Assault Tower! By doing so, the Tang Sect elites at the front of the hall will have to constantly be ready to split up to face the enemies.”

The group fell silent. When they heard this, they turned their heads around to look in the direction where Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters were.

Their expressions gradually turned dark, because they could tell that some of the aces near Dream Clouds had moved to another direction.

At the same time, another group of people continued heading to the front of the headquarters.

The Wind Assault Tower elites guarding Phantasmal Shadow looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Just as Phantasmal Shadow said, Dream Clouds had already realized how dire the situation was, and she had begun seizing every second she had to fight.

To them, this was not good news.

“Tower master, why don’t we look for a place to fight our way through and meet up with our people in the headquarters?” Someone was unable to hold back and suggested.

Phantasmal Shadow shook her head slowly. She sounded dispirited. “Forget about the fact that we won’t be able to move over. Even if we did, we won’t be able to break the rhythm of Class One Hall’s attack against the headquarters. Right now, the firepower at the other three fronts is balanced and steady, and if we go over, we will definitely be exposing our weakness and creating a gap in our defense to Class One Hall, and we will be speeding up the headquarters’ destruction.

“We don’t have a lot of people here, and even if we go back to the headquarters, we won’t be able to do much. It’s better if we quietly observe the situation and continue summoning reinforcements.”

“Are we supposed to just sit here and wait while we watch our friends fight with their lives inside and do nothing?”

“As for now, I’m afraid so.”

The moment Phantasmal Shadow finished speaking, the atmosphere in the restaurant instantly turned stern and cold.

Right then, Phantasmal Shadow suddenly gasped in surprise. “Lin Xuan.”

Lin Xuan had been paying close attention to the situation in the headquarters on the roof. When he heard the urgent tone in Phantasmal Shadow’s voice, he quickly answered. “Tower master?”

There was a hint of unease in Phantasmal Shadow’s voice as she urgently said, “What’s going on in the hall? A long time has passed, but no abnormality has happened. This isn’t like Evil Emperor.”

“I don’t know. I can’t see clearly. Class One Hall has just sent a group of people into our headquarters, and there are too many of them. But Evil Emperor hasn’t done anything major—”

Once he said this, Lin Xuan’s voice died away abruptly, as if someone had seized his throat and cut off his voice.

Soon, Lin Xuan cried out in surprise, and it was filled with anxiety and fear. “Tower master, Happy is dead?!”

All voices in the restaurant instantly disappeared.

Phantasmal Shadow immediately jumped to the roof, and her expression was incredibly dark.
