  When some of the large sects heard about this later, they gasped in astonishment.

  Mu Clan had gained a lot of profit during the feast, but who would have expected that they would immediately spend an even larger amount of money. This sort of spending was something that no one else could replicate in World of Martial Arts.

  *****

  After the duel, Mu Clan continued to make large spendings one after another, and all of them caused the people to gasp in amazement.

  The first was the Seventh Sword, which stood at the top of Divine Weapon Rank. It went from the third echelon to the fourth, and its attack reached an astonishing six thousand points!

  The entire world of martial artists trembled because of it!

  A fourth-echelon high-grade divine weapon!

  The mementom One Emperor gave Happy to commemorate their fight at Mount Tai increased in value by leaps and bound.

  Then, another weapon appeared on Divine Weapon Rank and dethroned Seventh Sword from its position at the top.

  Dragon Saber, and it was a fourth-echelon Dragon Saber!

  Its damage reached eight thousand points, and it had the crushing and defense breaking effect. It also had Dragon Saber's will in it, allowing it to be frighteningly lethal. It was considered a supreme grade divine weapon.

  Quite a number of people cursed the spendthrift scoundrel for daring to even refine Dragon Saber.

  If the slightest mistake happened during the refinement of a supreme grade divine weapon, it would be completely ruined!

  But once everyone learned of the identity of Dragon Saber's owner, all their voices instantly vanished.

  *****

  The next half a month quickly passed with numerous gossips and an abnormal state of silence in the game.

  *****

  During the half a month, the duel at the summit of Mount Tai was occasionally mentioned, but it had already passed its popularity. The people talked more about Eunuch Yang's Warehouse, which appeared in Yangzhou City after Sky Demone Secret Cave.

  As more people from the evil cult appeared, the plot of Twin of Brothers seemed to have entered a rather intense state. There were sightings of Wan Wan, who was the successor of Yin Weed Faction, though she only appeared briefly. Shi Feixuan, the successor of Kind Boathouse, could also be seen, and her contact with Xu Zhiling and Kou Zhong gradually increased.

  But since players continued interfering with the plot, certain changes happened.

  Zhu Yuyuan and Shi Zhixuan's disciples replaced Orochimaru and Lu Mingyue to become the new first and second ranks on One Hundred Demon Influence Rank.

  One of them focused on practicing Great Sky Demon Art for a few months, while the other understood the use of Undying Seals. By the time they finally mastered them, they killed numerous people while following through the quests in Great Tang and gained the nickname of Twin Demons.

  Both of them could be seen as powerful players who recently rose to great strength in the game. They were incredibly strong, and they both rose to the top ten of Dragon Rank and Phoenix Rank in quick succession, which made them quite popular.

  One day, when the news that Eunuch Yang's Warehouse was about to be activated spread out from Yangzhou City, the elites from the righteous and evil paths entered Yangzhou. It created an atmosphere of disquiet in the holy land of Fengshui.

  In Heaven Fragrant Tower, as the sounds of people walking up the stairs were heard, the people saw two figures. One of them had red hair, and the other had purple hair. When these two incredibly eye-catching hair colors showed up, the loud discussions on the first floor suddenly fell silent. There were only the loud sounds of people s.u.c.k.i.n.g in sharp breaths.

  The redhead was a young and pretty girl. She was dressed provocatively, and her curves were alluring and tempting. Her gaze was enchanting, and she had the temperament of someone who walked down the evil path.

  The man who walked up the stairs with her was quite handsome, but the dazzling purple hair and the cold killing intent about him that seemed to have substance and could even freeze the air around him was enough to tell that he was not someone who was easy to get along with.

  Once these two walked up the stairs, they looked around them quickly. Then, at the same time, their eyes landed on a customer in the corner.

  "Amitabha."

  "If you persecute me so, then this must be my fate."

  "If you know that, why are you still wasting your breath?"

  The purple-haired man attacked straight away and did not care that he was in a restaurant. The tables in between him and his target were flipped over, and the martial artists at them quickly avoided the carnage. They did not dare approach the area.

  At the area near the window were two young-looking men. When they saw someone fighting brazenly against a monk in a restaurant, one of them could not help but strike at the table and rise to his feet.

  "How preposterous!"

  "Don't. They're the Twin Demons," his companion told him in a whisper.

  The young man was stunned silent.

  That title was like a basin of cold water poured over his head. The young man's expression changed, and his imposing mannerisms vanished without a trace. He quickly sat down.

  The purple-haired man's skills were incredibly profound. His hands moved like black jade, and he drew dozens of sharp black claw-generated gusts of wind in the air. They howled and swiftly left behind bloody marks on the monk's body with just a few strikes.

  "Senior Brother Hou, you're here as well?"

  Her voice was sweet and charming, and she moved to Hou Xibai's table like a red cloud. The man had been drinking alone by the window.

  "Miss, you must be mistaken." Hou Xibai cast a nonchalant glance at the two men who were fighting fiercely on the other side. He smiled faintly before he cast a glance at the red-haired woman. "Could it be that you know Undying Seals as well?"

  "Senior Brother Hou, your words are too hurtful. I am from Yin Weed Faction, and my master is Zhu Yuyuan. We are both disciples of the holy order, so it's only natural that we are brothers and sisters."

  The red-haired woman went to Hou Xibai in a show of familiarity. Her heated gaze swept up and down his body in a seductive manner.

  "I see, so you're a junior sister from Yin Weed Faction. It seems that I have been impolite."

  But Hou Xibai did not show any signs hinting that he was sorry that he was impolite.

  The red-haired woman was not surprised by it. The coquettishness of her smile did not diminish. "Senior Brother Hou, are you waiting for someone here?"

  "Indeed."

  "Is it Shi Feixuan of Kind Boathouse?"

  The red-haired woman was like a flower in a battlefield, but when she said those words, Hou Xibai's expression darkened slightly. He stopped in the middle of bringing his cup to his lips.

  "What do you mean?"

  "You want to give the key to Eunuch Yang's Warehouse to Kind Boathouse, and my mistress is very displeased with it. That is why we came here… to kill you."

  Before she even finished speaking, two cold sparks shot out from her mouth like lightning, and they charged straight at Hou Xibai's c.h.e.s.t.

  Ting! Ting!

  He spread out his foldable fan, and when clear sounds rose, two strange hidden weapons were sent flying away by the metallic structure of the foldable fan.

  Hou Xibai stood up quickly and positioned the foldable fan horizontally over his c.h.e.s.t. With a shout, he retreated dozens of feet away. The genial presence turned cold and dark, and as he stared into the red-haired woman's eyes, he released a frightening chill.

  "How dare you!"

  Chapter 686 - Yangzhou, Eunuch Yang’s Warehouse

  The red-haired woman looked at Hou Xibai's handsome face without any fear. A hint of derision flashed in her eyes.

  "Hou Xibai, this is a small warning. Do not get too close with the people from Kind Boathouse. You must understand that ever since our martial-uncle and a group of holy order elites were killed
, the rules in our holy order changed.

  "The Evil King is slightly mad, and Empress Yin is the one who controls everything. All holy order disciples have to listen to her orders. You are a disciple of Flowers Sect, yet you are so close to the successor of Kind Boathouse, which is the leader of all righteous sects… This is not very good, is it?"

  "You are a mere disciple from Yin Weed Faction, and yet you dare to come and lecture me? You should know your place!"

  When Hou Xibai snorted coldly, the red-haired woman quickly noticed that the situation was bad, but it was already too late. The figure in front of her moved, and she instantly lost track of Hou Xibai.

  'He's behind me!'

  She turned around to deliver a palm strike, but a powerful force sent her violently out of the restaurant.

  Crash!

  The wooden wall of the restaurant suddenly shattered from inside, and shards flew outward. A red shadow descended on the ground together with them.

  "Twin Demons!"

  Once the people on the streets recognized the red-haired woman, most of them quickly moved to the side.

  The red-haired woman not only managed to use her Great Sky Demon Art skillfully, she also had with her high-grade hidden weapons that would make people tremble in their boots. She could fire fatal and poisonous hidden weapons from every part of her body, and they were incredibly powerful.

  When the players in the area recognized her, they could not help but weigh their own abilities.

  It was especially so when they saw Hou Xibai chase after her out of the first floor of the restaurant. When he attacked the red-haired woman, demonic shadows flew everywhere for a period of time. Both of them used True Phantasmal Body Movement Skill, and those whose qi realms were slightly lacking could not tell what was happening at all. They could only see a red blur and a white blur moving all over the street.

  But they could still tell who had the upper hand in the situation. The red-haired woman was clearly unable to fight against Hou Xibai for a long period of time. Very soon, she was in a disadvantageous position. She was struck a few times and sent flying more than thirty feet backward.

  But even though the red-haired woman was at a disadvantage, a string of phantasmal laughter that sounded like silver bells suddenly rose on the street.

  "Hou Xibai, didn't you claim that you are the man who loves all women in the world the most? How could you attack such a pretty and adorable junior sister? Next time, I, Wan Wan, will definitely not dare to walk beside you."

  The delicate and sweet voice traveled into the ears of the players in the area, but it was difficult for them to feel any disgust from it. Instead, they felt comforted and longed to hear it again.

  The expressions of some of the more experienced martial artists in the area changed. They looked at each other before they quickly left the troublesome place.

  After all, the people fighting were from the evil cult, and none of them were merciful people.

  Wariness flashed in Hou Xibai's eyes, and he resolutely stopped chasing after the red-haired woman. He turned around to look at the roof of the restaurant on the side and saw an incredibly s.e.xy woman swinging her b.a.r.e feet mischievously. She sat on the roof like an elf with her shoulders bared. There was an indescribable air of charm and coquettishness about her.

  "Senior Sister Wan Wan, any second longer, and you would have had to come here and collect your adorable junior sister's corpse."

  It was the same delicate and sweet voice, but the red-haired woman had clearly not mastered the art yet. Quite a number of players could not help but feel that she was a flighty person when they saw her appearance and heard her tone.

  "So, you're here as well, Wan Wan."

  "My mistress was worried that the two newly accepted disciples of hers will make you angry, so she had me come here to deal with the situation should any problems occur."

  Wan Wan and Hou Xibai chose to ignore the red-haired woman who had a very unique appearance. They talked to each other without moving from their positions. One of them sat on the roof while the other remained at the center of the street.

  "Does Empress Yin want you to come and lay out judgment on me?"

  "Of course not." A cunning light shone in Wan Wan's eyes, and while she faced Hou Xibai, who had a wary look on his face, she said, "I heard that you have a date with Shi Feixuan today, and we can just capture her to make amends for your crimes. My mistress will not blame you then!"

  "Hahahaha!"

  While laughing, Hou Xibai opened his Beauty Fan with a snap. He looked at Wan Wan and said loudly in an indifferent tone, "My qi realm might be low, but I despise such contemptuous acts. Besides, you want me to do such a thing to a pretty lady? It's not fitting for my title as The Womanizer, hmm?"

  "Can you keep a clear conscience once you refuse my offer?" Wan Wan fluttered her long and seductive lashes. Her voice was like the sad w.h.i.n.e of a maiden, and it was incredibly charming. "Or are you saying that I am not pretty?"

  Hou Xibai said nothing. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled in anguish and subconsciously closed his Beauty Fan.

  At that instant, Wan Wan suddenly moved.

  Thud!

  She tapped against the corner of the restaurant with her b.a.r.e feet and flew down like an elf. Her two thin gauze ribbons shot at Hou Xibai like lightning, and they were just in time to bind Beauty Fan when it was completely shut. Her timing was impeccable.

  Hou Xibai's expression changed.

  When he wanted to fight back, the red-haired woman behind him executed her offense. She activated her Great Sky Demon Art, and the light around her instantly became much dimmer. A great power that was like the energy in a vortex continuously pulled at Hou Xibai and reduced his ability to react to the situation.

  He could not block it in time!

  Clang!

  During the critical moment, a large white sword force cut through Wan Wan's thin gauze.

  It immediately lost support, and changed from being as hard as steel into objects that were soft, pliant, and possessed no strength.

  Wan Wan stopped moving forward and jumped back to the restaurant under the threat of the sword. She looked down at the torn thin gauze in her hands, then spoke to the person who showed up on the roof across from her.

  "Big Sister Shi, do all the people from the righteous path join fights without any declaration and ambush people from behind?"

  "I've heard for a long time that you have a sharp tongue and are skilled. Now that I see you today, you do live up to your name."

  Shi Feixuan did not fall for the trap nor fly into a rage. Her words were spoken with a relaxed air, and she looked very cordial. Her temperament was even colder and more distant than when she appeared at Extreme Yin Lake, and she seemed to have reached a breakthrough in her Clear Sword.

  Usually, when two women met, they would have a lot of words to say to each other, but when Wan Wan met Shi Feixuan, her temper did not seem to be very good, and it was very easy for her to become angry.

  "You're the one who came to our doorstep yourself."

  She snorted coldly and tapped against the roof to instantly close the distance of more than ten feet between them. She appeared near Shi Feixuan.

  The fight between two matchless beauties at the peak of Inaction Realm instantly attracted countless people's attention.

  Happy, who sat in a restaurant nearby, was no different and quietly watched the progression of events. There was a faint smile on his lips.

  He activated Nine Yang Divine Skill, and a light crease swiftly formed between his eyebrows.

  Aside from Wan Wan, Shi Feixuan, and Hou Xibai, a few more powerful presences were hidden nearby.

  'Looks like the news about Eunuch Yang's Warehouse is true.'

  Chapter 687 - A Beautiful Lady Visits, A Great Glory

  Just when Wan Wan engaged in a fierce fight with Shi Feixuan, Womanizer Hou Xibai started fighting against the red-haired woman once more.

  The red-haired woman
might have been strong, but she was clearly inferior to Hou Xibai. After ten moves, she was already suppressed by him.

  But the situation quickly took a turn.

  A bloody figure flew out of the window of the restaurant and crashed into the empty street.

  The monk was the NPC from the restaurant who was targeted by the purple-haired man of the Twin Demons. When Shi Feixuan saw the body from the roof, her expression changed.

  "Master Qing Yuan!" she cried out in surprise and wanted to go help, but Wan Wan held her back.

  "Big Sister Shi, where do you think you're going?"

  "Haha! Bald Donkey, die!"

  A black shadow shot out from inside the restaurant!

  The purple-haired man reached the monk's head without stopping for a moment. His palms, which were as dark as black jade, struck down viciously with sharp palm-generated wind.

  "Begone!"

  The sharp face of the fan was not inferior to a divine weapon. When the purple-haired man sensed the aggressive force coming toward him, he had to forcefully stop his attack.

  Master Qing Yuan was saved, but a scene that caught everyone by surprise followed after it.

  Hou Xibai was just about to help the blood-drenched Qing Yuan when an incredibly cold glare suddenly appeared behind him. He moved, and a terrifying gash bloomed like a flower on his shoulder.

  "Yang Xuyan!" he cried out in surprise and quickly closed his Beauty Fan before he swiftly kicked the air a few times to force out the person who had managed to injure him.

  That person was dressed in black armor, had a handsome face, and was filled with an endless chilling intent.

  He was Shadow Assassin, Yang Xuyan.

  Four of the youngest elites from Twin of Brothers—Womanizer, Shadow Assassin, Clear Sword, and Yin Weed Witch—had appeared in one place.

  Hou Xibai was injured, Qing Yuan was heavily wounded, so the situation was critical. Shi Feixuan was held back by Wan Wan and could not break free, which put Hou Xibai and Qing Yuan in a precarious position.
