Chapter 293: Return to the Murong Family

“Bad Luck! Gangs Rob ‘Famous Assassins’”
The eye-catching red headline appeared immediately on the homepage of the Nanhua Jianghu List forum, featuring a screenshot of the Feihu Men leader’s dazzling bald tattoo and pale, purple-faced expression, with his uniformed disciples fleeing in the background.
“Little Butt Wiggles” vividly recounted the entire incident.
Basically, the Feihu Men had gathered a large force to launch a robbery, only to be overwhelmed by a counterattack from four major sects. Their leader then came up with an idea to use a “mysterious man” to save face, leading to the famous line, “Just be happy—that’s enough…” Little P commented, “Obviously, the Feihu Men leader didn’t check the almanac before going out…” A sigh of “What a fiasco” summed up the robbers’ miserable failure.
Little Butt Wiggles turned the dangerous ordeal into a hilarious story.
Surprisingly, what started as a joke for the Caiyi Men’s group task, meant merely to amuse readers, was reposted by the official Jianghu website within less than an hour, becoming a highly popular post.
In any case!
The Feihu Men became famous…
Little Butt Wiggles became famous…
Yitong also became famous!
Happy’s reputation grew even further.
Of course!
The website’s repost wasn’t due to Happy’s personal fame or the classic example of overcoming odds, but rather to introduce the Wangling map to countless players.
Wangling was a special map that required collecting a unique spice and passing through a maze at noon every day when the gate opened. It was a challenging level that demanded teamwork, and its high drop rates made it even more attractive than Fox Cave. Additionally, the rareRare Ninja King and advanced puppets caught the attention of many large guilds. Thus, within days, Wangling quickly replaced Fox Cave as the hottest treasure-hunting destination!
…
Happy didn’t get involved anymore.
The Caiyi Men also didn’t enter again!

The treasures in the royal tomb were indeed tempting, but this time it also made them truly realize the dangers of the tomb. TheNin King’s clones, theNin King himself, and the general puppets w King’s clones, theNin King’s clones, theNin King himself, and the general puppets w King himself, and the general puppets were far beyond their ability to resist. This time, with the four major sects working together, they managed to reach the end unscathed. If the other three sects hadn’t been eliminated, big problems might have arisen already on the second level, leading to brutal slaughter at the hands of theNin King’s clones, theNin King himself, and the general puppets w King. Thus, the Colorful Robes Sect never initiated another mission to the royal tomb.

……

Happiness rushed back to Gusu City in no time!

When Happiness returned here dressed in blue, the streets and scenery remained unchanged, but the people here seemed to have forgotten that young man who once dominated Gusu City—the eldest disciple of the Murong family, known as the “Blue-Robed Gentleman Sword.”

The moment he returned to Gusu City, it was bustling with activity, even more prosperous and vibrant. Martial artists in various outfits hurried about. Happiness smiled indifferently, feeling no concern at all. He had been young when he was in Gusu City, spending his childhood and adolescence there. Now he was a grown man of six feet tall. Moreover, Gusu City was filled with an elegant atmosphere; many people wore blue or green robes, looking very handsome and refined, giving it the vibe of a city of scholars. It was normal not to be recognized.

“Boss, is this where the Murong family lives? Not bad! Tsk tsk, there are so many beautiful women…”

Along the way, Xiao Bei kept flashing eye kisses at the beautiful women nearby, only to be dismissed as crazy by them, who rolled their eyes and walked away. Yet this kid showed no signs of improvement and continued to do it relentlessly.

Eager to return home, Happiness didn’t bother with him and walked ahead, passing through streets and alleys, soon arriving outside the Murong family’s residence…

“Tsk tsk! What a magnificent place!”

When they reached the entrance of the Murong family’s estate, Xiao Bei and Lei Zhan looked up in awe.

This was it—the Murong family!

“The Murong family allows entry only to its own disciples. Brother Lei, you and Xiao Bei, go explore around. I’ll join you once I’m done here.”

“Okay!” Lei Zhan and Xiao Bei knew well that such a prestigious family had many taboos and restrictions, and they couldn’t just wander in casually. They agreed readily.

Regaining his composure, Happiness lifted the hem of his robe and strode confidently into the Murong family’s estate.

At the entrance, several men and women who appeared to be disciples of the Murong family stopped to watch as a stranger entered. A few even frowned at the butler inside, who was directing a group of newly recruited outer disciples at work.

They had witnessed with their own eyes how the seemingly kind but actually stern and rigid old butler had thrown more than a dozen players across the street in just one day. This young man, who had never been seen before, had rashly barged into the Murong family, and it seemed he too was doomed to a tragic end. A group of people stood there smiling, ready to watch the butler’s swift movements. Yet… When the butler glanced over, something completely unexpected happened! The stern and rigid old butler’s eyes lit up upon seeing the strange man striding into the Murong family’s gates; he even showed a rare smile, put down the items in his hands, and walked over. Both inside and outside the gate, the Murong family’s disciples noticed the butler’s unusual behavior and looked over curiously, trying to figure out the stranger’s identity. Whoosh! After taking two steps forward, Rong Bo suddenly moved, appearing instantly to the left of Kai Xin. His fingers moved like lightning as he grasped Kai Xin’s shoulder. The sudden change and the rapid series of moves left many Murong disciples unprepared. Swish! Rong Bo shattered Kai Xin’s remaining afterimage. Kai Xin smiled slightly, appearing to Rong Bo’s left. With a single lift of his hand, he blocked Rong Bo’s lightning-fast strike with perfect timing. At the same time, he used his left hand in a grasping motion, employing the Dragon Seizing Claw to catch Rong Bo’s fist hidden in his sleeve, laughing and saying, “Rong Bo! Long time no see. You’re still in great shape!” Rong Bo’s body trembled slightly, a sharp glint appearing in his eyes. An astonishing pressure surged from him as his fist broke free from Kai Xin’s grasp in an instant. Staring at Kai Xin’s face and left hand, he let out a soft exclamation of surprise. “Good kid, what was that move just now?” “Dragon Seizing Hand,” replied Kai Xin with a smile, showing no surprise at Rong Bo easily countering his ultimate skill. Rong Bo was originally a top-tier expert, his cultivation perhaps even on par with that of the old hero. The reason he revealed his strongest move right from the start was that he was an NPC and also fell under the category of a mentor and elder; showing honesty about his strength wouldn’t do any harm.
