Chapter 1108: Crazed Wandering Know-it-all, Completely Tipped Scale

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The List of the Dead within the Book of Reincarnation in Guanlin Temple that recorded the names of one thousand people per page suddenly began flipping over at a frenzied speed.

When West Biscuit saw Class One Hall, Blood Alliance, and the names of the twelve Beijing sects repeatedly appearing on the pages, he could not help but suck in a sharp breath, because it was appearing at a rate where when he blinked, another page would have turned over. While his eyelid twitched, he looked at the entrance of Guanlin Temple, which was in a state of chaos right now.

The number of dead jumped again!

While the speed in which they died could not compare to the first few minutes when Class One Hall attacked Lovely Land’s headquarters, it did not lose to the speed when Happy and One Emperor led tens of thousands of people to kill them.

In less than half a minute, more than eight thousand people died, and the speed of people dying was increasing. In fact, it was showing no signs of stopping.

“How can this be…?”

West Biscuit’s face was pale. With one swift step, he rushed to the entrance of Guanlin Temple and shouted at the dense crowd who surged out of the temple with resentment flowing out of them. “Where did you come from? What happened?”

West Biscuit was not famous in Class One Hall. Even after he shouted at a few people, no one acknowledged him. When the people came out, they only cursed some members from Lovely Land. No one paid attention to West Biscuit, whose voice was not loud.

After shouting for nearly half a minute, West Biscuit finally found a person he was rather familiar with. His equipment was pretty decent, and he could be considered to be an elder.

When he saw West Biscuit, that person paused in his motion of sending his messenger pigeon into the sky. He turned his head around and smiled bitterly. “We received orders to intercept the people who came out of Beijing, but we didn’t ourselves to be ambushed while we were on our way over. We were ambushed while we were near Lovely Land’s headquarters.”

This elder knew about West Biscuit’s status and duty, and he also knew that West Biscuit was someone who was in charge of gathering important war information for Class One Hall, so he cooperated with West Biscuit.

“The reinforcements in charge of intercepting Lovely Land?” West Biscuit appeared to be in disbelief. “Have the people from Beijing reached Lovely Land so soon?”

The people at Guanlin Temple had a clear grasp of the information everywhere on the battlefield. Naturally, West Biscuit knew that the battle at Lovely Land’s headquarters was currently at a stalemate. Both sides were whittling down each other’s forces right now, and the difference between the current winner and loser was not great. But if they added this sudden large group of people who died this time, the scales of victory might already be tipping to Lovely Land.

What was even more terrifying was that if the reinforcements from Beijing had already reached Lovely Land’s headquarters, it would undoubtedly make Class One Hall’s situation even more dire.

“I can’t be certain either. When the hall master received her news, the informant said that the reinforcements from Beijing will need at least twenty minutes before they can rush over. Only a few minutes have passed since then, but it’s true that we suffered a really vicious attack. We currently don’t know just how many enemies the other party has.”

When Class One Hall’s elder answered him, West Biscuit immediately took swift action and recorded what the elder said along with the information from Guanlin Temple. Then, he sent his messenger pigeon into the air.

Once the messenger pigeon flew into the sky, West Biscuit frowned. “That’s not right… Happy and One Emperor are still at Lovely Land, and we’re currently keeping an eye on the Lovely Land elites. Even if they sent reinforcements from Beijing, it’s impossible for them to pose such a huge threat to you!”

It was only at that moment that he remembered that even if Class One Hall’s elites went up against a ragtag army that was ten times its size, it was still impossible for them to instantly fall apart and not even have the strength to fight back.

When Class One Hall’s elder heard him, he smiled bitterly. “It’s Wandering Know-it-all!”

“What?” West Biscuit was shocked again.

That person explained, “Wandering Know-it-all went mad. He ordered his disciple, Wind Chimes to personally lead the group from Lovely Land to leave Beijing. The one who ambushed us is Demonic Zither Wind Chimes! The people who followed her aren’t weak either. Some of them are the elites from the various sects in Beijing.”

“Wind Chimes? Wandering Know-it-all actually dared to let her appear outside the city?”

West Biscuit sounded as if he heard something unbelievable. He was dumbfounded.

The Class One Hall elder knew very clearly exactly why he was stunned. He shrugged. “That’s why I said Wondering Know-it-all went mad! Even though I didn’t personally see Wind Chimes, I won’t mistake her zither sounds!”

West Biscuit did not doubt what he said regarding this.

Because aside from Happy and One Emperor, perhaps only Wind Chimes could create such a magnificent and terrifying AOE attack and pose as such a threat in the Chinese server.

The Class One Hall elder cast a glance at West Biscuit as he gradually fell silent, then looked at the Book of Reinforcement beside him. His tone changed. “Fortunately, we didn’t have a lot of people with us. We only had twenty thousand with us. I believe that the hall master has already received news about this by now, and while we’re still able to hold them back with our remaining members, the hall master should be able to make preparations beforehand. During this time, it’ll also be good for us to get rid of a problem.”

Before his voice faded away, he saw West Biscuit suddenly turn his head around, and his face was full of shock. “What did you say?”

“…I said that the hall master has definitely sent people to ambush Wind Chimes, since she has Nine Yin Blocked Pulses—”

“That’s not what I meant. You said that the hall master only sent twenty thousand people to intercept the reinforcements from Beijing?” West Biscuit’s expression turned incredibly sour, and his voice sounded a little dry.

When the elder saw his strange reaction, he was shocked. He looked at him, then at the Book of Reinforcement. He nodded. “Yeah.”

West Biscuit said nothing else. He only brought out a messenger pigeon quietly from his Universe Bag, and his expression was so calm that it was scary.

“What…?” The Class One Hall elder in front of him seemed to have sensed something based on the expression on his face. “Are the number of casualties really high?”

West Biscuit did not even raise his head once. While he wrote his second letter, he answered with a grave tone, “It’s not a matter of whether the number of casualties are high or not. Most likely, all of your people have died, and I have to immediately remind the hall master about the enemies coming from the east.”

Class One Hall’s elder spoke with a firm tone, “Impossible! It has only been five minutes since we engaged them in a fight! There’s no way twenty thousand people can die so quickly! Not even Wind Chimes can kill us so fast.”

“I don’t want to argue with you, but during the past five minutes, there have been a lot of entries in the Book of Reinforcement, and more than thirty thousand people died. I didn’t even include the people from Lovely Land.” West Biscuit did not even look at the elder who was shocked by the number of deaths. He continued explaining. “You mentioned just now that the information the hall master received just now was that the enemies from Beijing will only arrive twenty minutes later. Since they have reached more than ten minutes earlier, is there a possibility that none of the people surrounding our headquarters are from Lovely Land? From the moment the enemy forces attacked our headquarters, the Lovely Land members have already secretly escorted Wind Chimes and the elites from Beijing out of Beijing beforehand. Their goal is to work together with the reinforcements from Ghost’s Domain and launch a pincer attack on us!”

The Class One Hall elder was already rendered speechless because of West Biscuit’s words. Then, his face turned pale. “The hall master is in danger!”

*****

When West Biscuit’s messenger pigeon reached Dream Clouds, Dream Clouds had already been notified of this fact half a minute earlier by the group who fled back pathetically.

If this were any other time, when Dream Clouds learned that Demonic Zither had appeared outside the city, she would definitely not hesitate and send someone over to kill her.

But now, they were at the most critical and tricky stage of the fight between Lovely Land and Class One Hall. Both sides could be considered to have equal strength with each other…

To take care of Happy, Evil Emperor was held back.

To hold back One Emperor, she sent dozens of top-class elites after him.

And to obtain swifter victory, the remaining top-class elites had either been sent to Lovely Land’s headquarters to work together with the elite Wild Wolves to kill their enemies, or were sent to the south to fight back against the elites from Lovely Land.

If Wandering Know-it-all attacked at this moment and decided to stake everything he had in this single fight by sending Wind Chimes to the battlefield, then the forces from the battlefield would have already broken the balance of power between Lovely Land and Class One Hall.

Even if Dream Clouds could still mobilize fire power, the small bit of men she could send over could not quickly end Wind Chimes’ life. Wind Chimes must have definitely used extraordinary methods to protect Wind Chimes. The force that constructed the sturdy defense around her was definitely not weak.

Besides, if she sent more people over, Class One Hall would be immediately surrounded by trouble!

The two points West Biscuit mentioned caused Dream Clouds’ to feel as if her body had fallen into an icy cave.

The first was that within a short five minutes just now, they lost more than thirty thousand people. West Biscuit’s initial guess was that the twenty thousand people sent to Beijing had been completely wiped out, and even if there were some remaining, it was impossible for them to stop Wind Chimes and her reinforcements from arriving.

The other bad news was that as the thirty thousand people died, Class One Hall had now been verified to have lost more than two hundred thousand people out of the four hundred thousand people they brought to this place. The number of casualties they suffered reached a phenomenal number of two hundred and thirty thousand people. The remaining one hundred thousand or so people had to now be pitched against Lovely Land’s members, which number to fewer than one hundred thousand people. Their great advantage in numbers was now completely gone, and whatever bit of advantage they previously had was already destroyed by the powerful reinforcements led by Wind Chimes, and they did not even know how many people she brought over.

In other words, West Biscuit’s letter caused Dream Clouds to have a clear understanding of what sort of despair Class One Hall had sunken into.

Forget about the fact that they lost more than half their forces, Lovely Land’s headquarters still stood as tall and sturdy as before. The headquarters refused to break down even after a long time, and the reinforcements that came from the east and west caused Class One Hall to be worn down from the fight. They were now caught in the swamp of war, and they could not withdraw from it.

The most terrifying thing was that the twelve headquarters belonging to the twelve Beijing sects had just been announced to have fallen.

Even though there were still some among the countless branches in the north that still belonged to Class One Hall, they were all suppressed by the Lovely Land members in their respective cities and the local sects, and they could mobilize their forces.

While Dream Clouds was filled with anxiety and did not know what to do, an anxious shout suddenly rose from behind her. “Hall master, we have a large group of enemies who appeared behind us! All of them are from Beijing!

“This is bad, we’re surrounded!”

Dream Clouds was shocked.

The sounds of air being pierced through rose endlessly. Arrows came at them like a storm in the dark night. Screams of pain swiftly rose from among the Class One Hall members.

A dense wave of people surged forward out of the dark plains like an avalanche.

Dream Clouds only cast them a brief glance before her heart completely sank. The tens of thousands of people Lovely Land left in Beijing might have all come forward.

“Damn it!”

Dream Clouds gnashed her teeth so hard she nearly crushed them.

She expected that this wave would cause Class One Hall to sink into their most difficult situation, but she did not expect that the enemy would attack her so fiercely and not give her any chance to prepare and react to the situation.

“Damn you, Wandering Know-it-all!”

As the arrow shower pushed forward endlessly and filled up the air, her forces continued withdrawing. It was at that moment that Dream Clouds knew, she completely lost.

Happy might be mad, but there was someone else who was even crazier than he was!

Sending Wind Chimes out of Beijing was indeed an incredibly mad move.

But she had to admit that Wandering Know-it-all’s final sink or swim gambit had indeed brought a pressure and threat that Class One Hall could not handle.

The appearance of these tens of thousands people completely destroyed the stalemate. The scales of victory had tipped toward Lovely Land, and there was no way for him to turn the tides anymore.
