“Big Brother Thunder. Big Brother Thunder…”

There was a quicksand pit right ahead of the former Dragon Gate Inn. In it was a thin man with four people in black robes standing behind him, He looked around the area in boredom. There were plenty of sand diggers around him hard at work. Suddenly, he ran to a pit that had a diameter that was more than sixty feet wide.

“Don’t come here!”

“We’ve just dug out this amount of sand, and you brought them in again!”

When the Lovely Land members in the pit saw the young man run over, they were so terrified that they quickly yelled at him to stop moving.

If they let this boy run over, the quicksand would collapse once more, and their efforts for the past two hours would be in vain.

“Stop digging! Big Brother Thunder… Big Brother Thunder!”

“I don’t care that you’re not working, but why are you constantly causing trouble…?”

Thunderous Battle was among the sand diggers. He stopped whatever he was doing and revealed a face and chest that had become tanned. When he saw how anxious Little North was, he stared at him in shock. “Brat, talk while you walk! The sand is flowing in! Don’t come here! If you have something to say, send a private message over!”

When he managed to stop Little North from coming here, Thunderous Battle looked at the quicksand pit around him, and he felt incredibly satisfied.

After they worked hard for half a day, they were finally able to get rid of all the sand from the second floor and the first floor. Now, with just a bit more effort, they would be able to clear this place that seemed like a hall off of sand. Even though their progress was rather slow, they believed that in just a while, they would be able to find the clues as to how the people in the dao of heaven had vanished from this place.

The desert palace was their motivation for coming to the desert.

Happy’s fortuitous events and his success after he went through life and death situations caused Thunderous Battle, Little North, and the others to turn into hot-blooded youths. They did not care what sort of dangers were in the desert palace. They wanted to enter the place without turning back.

Besides, the truth showed that the desert palace was not the only one that posed as a great temptation to them. After the former Dragon Gate Inn was buried by the black sandstorm, many players tried to use the most uncouth method to search for the palace buried under the desert.

When he thought of this, Thunderous Battle jumped out of the pit.

“Big Brother Thunder, water!”

Little North had been a player who loved playing solo, but after the events at Song House, he joined Thunderous Battle’s party, and he was currently their lackey. When he saw Thunderous Battle coming over, he immediately brought out a bag of water from his Universe Bag to him.

“Brat… why didn’t you stay up there quietly? What sort of ‘top secret’ did you manage to get this time?” Thunderous Battle glared at Little North in resigned frustration.

“Heh heh…” Little North quickly gave him an obsequious smile. “Thunderous Battle, listen to yourself! This time, I definitely got myself a top secret.”

Since he was absolutely against the idea of digging out sand to clear out Dragon Gate Inn, Little North was sent out by Thunderous Battle to be in charge of serving as their sentry and to search for information, but he was really just thinking about sending Little North out for show, because there was really no information to dig out or any need for them to have a sentry in the desert.

But over this period of time, Little North had been making a fuss after he gained the order from Thunderous Battle. He ran about everywhere and went to all sorts of places like a fearless cub. He went to the groups who were well-informed to get information.

The forces of power from everywhere were originally very wary, and when they talked to each other, they would not let anyone get the chance to approach them. They would either show hostility when a person was still in the distance, or they would just draw their weapons and kill those who invaded their territory.

But it was strange.

When Little North, the idiot, had run a few circles from the east to the west, and he went past several organizations or foreign forces of power famous for being hot-tempered and did not have a good reputation. Even so, he never received any warning, and he was not targeted either. Forget about being attacked, he did not even receive any hostile gazes.

Little North naturally did not understand. He just ran around in circles and went closer to them. In fact, he would even stand right in front of them with a bashful look on his face.

Thunderous Battle and his group were terrified when they saw this, but they had no way of warning the boy.

Based on their experience, Little North should have been cut into pieces and thrown out.

But strangely, no matter how outrageously the boy behaved, no one ever used their weapons to hit him. They just turned their backs to Little North and ignored him.

After pondering over it for a long time, the group decided to attribute this to Lovely Land’s current great reputation, which also made them really intimidating.

One, Lovely Land had chased away Wild Wolves and destroyed Class One Hall, thereby bringing peace to the Chinese plains. Two, One Emperor had currently led his troops to enter the countries in West Region. Wild Wolves was smacked around, and anyone with some sense in them would not dare to engage in any sort of conflict with Lovely Land at this moment.

But they did not know that Little North was currently rather famous in West Region as well.

In the replay of the battle in Song House, Corpse Controller Little North had sat beside Happy, and he received the same treatment as Silver Wolf. Quite a number of players had already remembered his name and face.

The Chinese players were not the only ones who knew him. Quite a number of foreign factions also knew that there was an impulsive boy in the game who feared nothing.

Any person with some semblance of wit would not offend Lovely Land for something as small as this.

As for those who did not know who Little North was, when they saw how tolerant the others were of him, those who were rather calculative would understand what they needed to do.

When Thunderous Battle and his group saw how successful Little North was in going about the area, they were happy to just ignore him, and they let him do whatever he wanted.

But Thunderous Battle would not let the boy come back to bother them.

“Tell me. What news did you get this time?”

Thunderous Battle did not want to make Little North feel as if he was isolated in the group because he was young, which was why he set aside his work for the time being and came over. But he did not believe that Little North would be able to get any sort of information through this method.

“Big Brother Thunder, I’m not lying to you this time. The treasure in the palace has already been dug out. Right now, the news about it has spread through the entire desert. Many people have already received the news, and they’re getting ready to move out to the place where the treasure is.”

The words that came out of Little North’s mouth scared Thunderous Battle.

He cocked his eyebrows. “What did you say?”

As he spoke, Thunderous Battle saw the people who were gathered around the former Dragon Gate Inn had started showing signs of scattering like sand.

A quarter of the people who were positioned all around the area of the inn had actually started moving east…

Also, it was just as Little North said, many of the people to the east and west were incredibly excited, and they were behaving unusually. They no longer stayed where they were in a relaxed fashion. Instead, they looked eastward. Some of them even moved there.

At that moment, the tens of thousands of people in the desert showed signs of heading east.

“How could this be?”

Thunderous Battle stared at the scene in shock. He felt his skin crawl.

“I heard that there was quite a ruckus to the east just now!” As if Thunderous Battle had not just been shocked that his labor for half a day had just gone to waste, Little North explained tentatively by the side, “A few thousand Embroidered Uniform Guards have started fighting against a group of people in the dao of heaven there. They’re all fighting for the treasure that was brought out of the desert palace!”

Thunderous Battle looked as if he had not heard what Little North said.

“Big Brother Thunder?”

Little North called out to him softly.

Then, Thunderous Battle snapped out of his daze.

“That’s strange, I received news about the Embroidered Uniform Guards as well, but they seem to be pretty far away. Who would send that information to the desert…? Brothers and sisters, stop digging. The treasure of the desert palace is not here. Pack up. We need to move.”

Even though Thunderous Battle felt incredibly gloomy and frustrated, he did not lose the vigilance and sense of danger that he should have. While he called out to his friends to stop working, he did not forget about trying to figure out where the news came from.

“I heard that there are a few people in the dao of heaven over there. Perhaps the people near that place know that they can’t handle it, which is why they sent the information over.”

Thunderous Battle frowned and thought about it for a moment before he nodded. Little North had thought that it was only natural for those people to ask for help, but it was a plausible answer.

Naturally, they did not know that the people from Wild Wolves had strategically leaked the information and stirred them up, which was how the information had swiftly spread through the desert.

However, Wild Wolves and Class One Hall had specifically filtered out Lovely Land. If Little North had not shamelessly gone to other people’s camps to dig for information, Thunderous Battle and his group would definitely be the last to leave. In fact, they might continue to dig further into the pit even after the people nearby had left.

The people from all over the world gathered together near the former Dragon Gate Inn and endured the scorching heat. They had stayed in the unbearably hot desert because they held a slight bit of hope in being able to obtain the treasure from the desert palace!

The people from Wild Wolves had secretly spread the news about the treasure from the desert palace reappearing in the world, and in an instant, a huge storm stirred in the desert.

The people to the east and west of Dragon Gate Inn started boiling with excitement!

Without another word, the groups resolutely moved battlefields.

When the people near the former Dragon Gate Inn started moving and a clear line heading east was formed on the desert, Flame Wolf, Bloody Hell Saber, and the others walked out of the basin on the sand hill and reached a high spot from their hiding place.

The dozens of people stared at the blazing sun and felt the hot wind against them. A frightening chill came out of their bodies.

“Hmph!”

“I knew it. Once they hear that the treasure from the desert palace has been brought out, they started running faster than rabbits.” Immortal and Peach Blossom had smug and disdainful expressions on their faces.

Flame Wolf tilted his chin a little. “From now on, we do not need to care too much about hiding our tracks or worry about exposing ourselves. When these people are gathered together, the situation will soon turn chaotic! With them causing a disturbance, even if Lovely Land and Wind Assault Tower are there, we’ll still be able to take advantage of the disturbance and steal Tiger Soul.”

“But the situation at the Embroidered Uniform Guards is constantly changing. The fight between the people in the dao of heaven is incredibly dangerous, and you can’t predict what will happen. Perhaps they will decide the victor soon. Flame Wolf, let’s go there instead of wasting time over here. If an accident happens, it’ll be difficult for us to tell the leader that we screwed up.”

When he heard this, Flame Wolf smiled and waved his hand in dismissal. “Don’t be hasty. We’ll definitely go there, but now is not the time.”

The people around him put on puzzled and confused expressions.

Flame Wolf smiled and said, “The leader already said in the letter that Tiger Soul is different from normal divine weapons. Those who obtained Tiger Soul must be acknowledged by the spirit of the white tiger. He or she must let the saber drink a certain amount of blood and devour a certain number of souls before Tiger Soul’s ferocious nature can be temporarily unsealed, or else… Heh.”

“Or else, what?”

Flame Wolf’s words stirred up everyone’s curiosity.

But he did not intend to keep them in suspense. He answered directly, “If Tiger Soul’s fierce nature cannot be satisfied, the wielder must bear with being devoured by Tiger Soul. This means that the person who has Tiger Soul must use it to kill, or they will be killed by Tiger Soul. There is no other option for this!”

Once he said those words, the Wild Wolf elites sucked in sharp breaths.
