  Even though the information about Sky Demon Secret Cave did not spread out because of Mu Clan and Wind Assault Tower locking down the news, there were still some players who were lucky enough to witness the dangers and magnificence of Sky Demon Secret Cave when it was activated. Because of that, during the next few days, many sects fought to enter it, and Sky Demon Secret Cave was activated repeatedly. In the end, some of the information about Sky Demon Secret Cave was leaked, and more people came to know about it.

  However, aside from the party Happy personally led that smoothly completed Sky Demon Secret Cave, the others all ended in tragedy.

  On the first day, when faced with the beast puppets that did not fear death, many people died at the entrance. They had activated it in haste and did not notice the danger posed by Fire Wolf.

  In the end, more than ten parties died in the violent stream of beast puppets.

  The situation was slightly better on the second day. The players learned from their predecessors, and even though the party Vast Heaven led still suffered huge losses, they did manage to get rid of Fire Wolf and enter the tunnel of traps.

  They wandered around it and triggered countless traps!

  Aside from Vast Heaven, everyone else died.

  In the end, he was caught in a situation where he had to face everything alone, and he lost his confidence. He retreated to the hall without gaining anything and just waited for the next time Sky Demon Secret Cave’s Dragon Breaker Stone was activated.

  The repeated failures and lessons learned with blood and tears allowed countless people to understand that Sky Demon Secret Cave was not easy to deal with.

  But at that moment, Mu Clan set up a branch in a very flashy manner near Sky Demon Secret Cave.

  It was set outside the city closest to Sky Demon Secret Cave. On the day the branch was set up, thousands of workers were busy with a large scale installation at a spot that was half a mile away from Sky Demon Sect. The spectacle was incredibly lively and grand.

  The branch’s name was Sky Demon Branch. There was no need to doubt it, since the target of that branch was definitely Sky Demon Secret Cave.

  This move caused multiple gamers to talk about it.

  After all, as of then, the sects had to rely on Six Doors, Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the Eastern as well as Western Depots to protect them and ensure that their foundation would not be destroyed easily.

  But if the sect was set outside the city, not only would they need to be worried about the attacks from enemies and players, they would also need a group of people to protect the branch and foundation at all times.

  Also, when a branch was set outside the city, there was a possibility that it would lure over roaming bandits and thieves. It might even be attacked by famous evil elites. Those people were very temperamental, and they did things according to their likes. Hence, a sect set outside might be attacked at any moment.

  Even Class One Hall, Towering Palace, and Chivalry Sect did not dare to set their sects outside, because the cost and risk for it was too high!

  However, Mu Clan sent more than two thousand people from the nearest city to join the guards as well as easily chase away the bandits in the mountains nearby, its Sky Demon Branch quickly took shape.

  At the same time, while multiple martial artists paid attention to this issue, Happy, Momo, Silver Wolf, Wind Chimes, Little North, and All-powerful Medicinal Stone returned and showed their presence near Sky Demon Branch. Happy’s title as Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero caused the bandits who came out to attack to vanish without a trace, and many sects came to realize Mu Clan’s absolute desire to obtain Sky Demon Secret Cave.

  In the forest east of Sky Demon Sect, some of the leaders of the local sects gathered together and stared at the flat land in the distance with complicated gazes.

  That place was originally a great stretch of flat land.

  Right then, however, numerous majestic buildings had appeared. The word “Mu” could be seen on the flag hanging high on a flagpole. It spread out in the face of the wind, and the barren land became much livelier.

  Rows of X-shaped logs surrounded Sky Demon Branch. Only four paths were open, and the Mu Clan members moved to and fro through those tunnels in an incredibly orderly manner.

  “Looks like Happy obtained quite a lot of rewards during the first time he went to Sky Demon Secret Cave.” A leader of a local sect in the forest sounded incredibly jealous, and his eyes shone with envy. “I remember that when he challenged the royal mausoleum, he didn’t bring his forces.”

  “Can you even compare this to that?”

  “That’s right! Ninja King is the strongest boss in the royal mausoleum, but it’s only in Moksha Realm. Right now, if a normal party has a rather strong player, they can kill him, but Sky Demon Secret Cave isn’t so easy.

  “Sky Demon Orders are very expensive, and we need four of them to enter once. Then, we need to face disciples and beast puppets the weakest of whom are already at Moksha Realm.”

  A few other sect leaders sighed.

  “It’s too dangerous in there, and we aren’t qualified to work with Mu Clan, or else, we might be able to get a portion of the pie.”

  “I know, right?”

  The group sighed and shook their heads nonstop.

  Mu Clan was a giant in their eyes.

  A normal branch had been created, but it already had the amount of elites stationed there that only large and medium-sized sects had. Mu Clan could control the resources and provide for their own, making them highly sought out people in China.

  The Sky Demon Branch had much more people than any other normal branch. There were a lot of elites present, and with Happy as well as other top-class elites stationed there, they were absolutely safe.

  At that moment, a few leaders saw a herd of horses charge swiftly through the government-made road outside the forest.

  If they were just a group of normal players, they would naturally not catch their attention, but the people sitting on the backs of the horses all had dark skin, and they looked very thin and built. Their eyes burned, but the leaders could still see that those people were not used to riding horses. They looked very awkward, and they left behind a trail of dust outside the forest. Their actions instantly attracted the leaders’ attention.

  “Those people just now……”

  “I seem to have seen them somewhere before.”

  The leaders had contemplative expressions.

  Some time passed before the eyes of one of them lit up, and he quickly slapped his hands together.

  Slap!

  “Gosh, I’m stupid! Those people are the elites from the southwestern countries who have been causing a ruckus some time ago in China and challenging our people!”

  When he said that, the person quickly turned around and stared at where the horse riders had already disappeared. There was excitement in his eyes.

  “Judging by the direction in which they left, they should be going for Mu Clan. Could it be…… that they’re going to Happy?”

  “How would they know Happy is there?” someone asked, and everyone fell into deep thought.

  They all had solemn expressions on their faces.

  It had only been one day since Mu Clan set up their branch, but those people already came from the borders. Did that mean that someone had immediately notified them about Mu Clan taking action?

  “I remember that dark and thin man in the lead. His name is Abu. I heard that he’s a martial artist from Thailand, and his Arm Strength as well as Affinity have all surpassed two hundred. He killed quite a number of our people at the borders, and he’s known as the strongest Thai. Looks like someone wants Mu Clan to be in trouble.”

  “Even if someone in the country wants to attack Mu Clan, there are very few people who have the strength and courage, but cooperating with foreigners to attack Mu Clan? This move is a little damaging to us…… After all, Happy is the best in China, and if he loses to the foreigners, it means that Chinese martial artists aren’t as good as foreign elites…… Mu Clan’s reputation will be ruined, but all of China will be humiliated as well.”
