Chapter 278: The Determination of the Three Great Sects

“The Ninja King?!”
“Could he be the final boss of the royal tomb?”
“They’ve wiped out all the ninjas in the tomb… Is he the final monster?”
Along the way, the disciples of the three great sects, who had seen nothing but corpses of ninjas and gained nothing, suddenly spotted the golden-haired Ninja King in the distant passage. All their concerns about leaving the tomb vanished, replaced by regret over what they hadn’t accomplished before departing.
Especially when they saw that the Shaolin Sect, Wudang Sect, and Colorful Robes Sect had reached deep into the tomb seemingly unharmed, it filled them with a sense of imbalance and shame.
Along the way!
There were at least four hundred ninja corpses!
In various side halls and small chambers, there were dozens of precious artifacts—yet none of this went to them, which was hard for them to accept.
Arriving at the back of the crowd, they watched the battle in the passage. While asking about their journey, the disciples of the three sects began to speculate.
The Ninja King…
Just from the name, it was clear he must be a top-tier boss, capable of dropping valuable items.
“Why aren’t you joining in?”
The dark-faced man from the Flying Tiger Sect whispered to a Wudang Sect disciple beside him.
The latter, staring intently, replied instinctively, “That person has taken it, and we all agreed.”
“…”
The dark-faced man, the leader of the Lingyin Sect, and a few members of the Beggars’ Sect all changed expressions.
“Brother Ouyang, what’s going on?”
The Lingyin Sect leader approached Ouyang Qing and the two severely injured monk warriors, pretending to be concerned.
Ouyang Qing, not suspecting anything, replied with a wry smile, “I’m sorry. I’m too injured to move for now.”
“Tsk tsk, no wonder.”
The disciples of the three sects exchanged understanding glances, realizing that the Shaolin and Wudang Sects had indeed suffered losses, which was why they hadn’t gone after the boss.
“That can’t be right. Why is he the only one up there? Why aren’t the people from the Colorful Robes Sect joining in?” The dark-faced man looked around and found that the members of the Colorful Robes Sect were still in good condition, likely having the strongest strength among the seven great sects.
“That boss is extremely powerful. All three of our sects have suffered heavy losses. Only that brother is strong enough to handle him. We were also saved by him just now…”
The group was stunned.
They glanced back at the battlefield. After a dozen seconds, they lost interest—it wasn’t that impressive after all!

The mysterious man’s attacks struck theNinja King (Ninja King), who didn’t even flinch—clear evidence that the attacks were ineffective and caused minimal damage. Instead, they had to rely on protective barriers to withstand theNinja King (Ninja King)’s assaults. How long would this struggle go on?

“It seems like he’s having trouble taking him down too,” said the leader of the Lingyin Sect, hinting at something.

Ouyang Qing sighed, “TheNinja King (Ninja King) is indeed not easy to deal with.”

“What if we go and help? We’ve rested for too long; our bones are itching!” suddenly suggested the burly man with a dark face.

Ouyang Qing was stunned. The leader of the Lingyin Sect and the members of the Beggars’ Sect agreed, “Yes… We’ve gone through the entire royal tomb without much fighting. Let’s go!”

Before Ouyang Qing and the others could stop them, a group rushed out of the crowd and into the battlefield!

As they entered the battlefield, the members of the Beggars’ Sect called out loudly, “Brother, if we keep fighting like this, we won’t see the end. Let’s fight together! To be fair, we’ll split everything equally.”

“Let’s do it! Brothers, let’s go!”

…

The arrival of the three major sects immediately made the passage crowded. The disciples of the Wudang and Shaolin sects watched in shock from behind, realizing they were actually coveting theNinja King (Ninja King) and rushing at the boss!

“Shameless!”

But…

The Wudang Sect was now in decline, and they couldn’t openly curse at the coordinated effort of the three major sects to seize the enemy.

The same went for the Shaolin monks.

Although the three major sects had suffered heavy losses earlier, they still had a hundred or so members. If they provoked them recklessly, the royal tomb might turn into a battlefield where players fought each other.

The two sects watched helplessly as the hundred-odd people rushed at theNinja King (Ninja King), frowning in anger but unable to speak out.

“What does this mean?!”

Just because the two sects stayed silent didn’t mean the people of the Colorful Robes Sect would ignore it.

Especially after learning the true identity of the mysterious man, they saw the shameless intrusion of the three major sects into their battlefield and angrily cursed one after another.

“Feihu Sect! Lingyin Sect! And friends from the Beggars’ Sect—what is this? Stealing enemies?”

Feng Wu Cai Yi’s stern words instantly created dozens of powerful air currents on the side of the Colorful Robes Sect. Swords were drawn with a clashing sound, and the atmosphere became tense as the passage was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

On the other side, Yi Tong’s body was once again covered in dark protective armor, and his arms firmly gripped the metal handle of his purplish-red axe.

The Colorful Robes Sect’s actions immediately enraged the group from the three major sects.

“What?!”

“TheNing King King didn’t say it had to be yours! Do you have any objections?”
“That’s right!”
“Without the huge sacrifices made by our three major sects in the early stages, would you have been able to come here so easily and obtain so many precious items?”
“Damn! Our three sects fought to the death, lost so many brothers, yet got nothing in return. Now you’re upset that we want a share too?!”
“You’ve already made plenty of profit, but what about us? We don’t even have soup to drink. Now you want to exclude us too?!”
A group of people walked over, already creating extreme imbalance. Seeing the reaction of the group from the Colorful Robes Sect, it was like a powder keg about to explode—emotions flared up, and the tense atmosphere grew even more intense, on the verge of erupting into chaos.
At that moment!
Kai Xin, who was in the center of the battlefield, realized something was wrong…
He raised his hand to stop the group from the Colorful Robes Sect from approaching. After giving them a subtle signal, he used his internal energy to convey his voice clearly and loudly to everyone present:
“Harmony brings prosperity! Everyone! Calm down! Calm down! As you can see, even I can’t take it down alone. Why not share it among us?”
As he spoke, he took advantage of theNing King King’s strike to quickly retreat from the battle zone.
Seeing Kai Xin’s actions,
not only did the people from the Colorful Robes Sect’s eyes light up, but those from the Wudang and Shaolin sects also quickly understood what was happening. They thought to themselves, “This isn’t good,” and quickly stepped back.
They also remembered that when the members of the three major sects arrived, Kai Xin seemed to hold back, acting very ordinary, giving the illusion that he couldn’t defeat theNing King King, but that theNing King King was also unremarkable.
Unfortunately, the members of the Beggars’ Sect, Flying Tigers Sect, and Lingyin Society hadn’t realized it was a trap yet. They praised the mysterious man for knowing when to back down, shouting, “Rely on friends outside! In the future, if there’s anything…” “Brilliant!” They rushed at the golden-robedNing King King one after another.
TheNing King King, who had been tormented by Kai Xin for some time and had accumulated a lot of murderous intent and anger, now saw a group of players charging at him after Kai Xin retreated. A mocking look flashed in his eyes, and his boxing skills finally got a chance to be used!
