Sword Among Us

Chapter 643: Xie Yi’s Ambitions

“You’re mad! Your ambitions will destroy Wind and Rain Alliance! I can’t allow you to continue doing this!”

Xie Yi was stunned when Night Rain Follows Wind slammed the table and stood up, then he turned his face to the side and smiled coldly.

“Big Brother Wind, ask yourself this, do you want to spread Wind and Rain Alliance’s name through the rest of the world? Or are you willing to continue living under the shadow of the four top-class sects?”

He stopped talking at that moment and swiftly stood up across from Night Rain Follows Wind. Their eyes met, and he gritted his teeth while he enunciated each word. “I’m telling you that I can’t accept it!”

“For that bit of selfishness within you, you want to drag all sects in Wind and Rain Alliance into this?” Night Rain Follows Wind seemed to have calmed down. With a cold look, he stared into Xie Yi’s burning crazed eyes. “Don’t you know about the great difference between alliances like ours and the top-class sects with a lot of accumulated power?”

As the master of Wind and Rain Alliance, Night Rain Follows Wind knew very well that while the alliance between twenty or so sects appeared very strong, if they tried to fight against giants like Chivalry Sect, they would have absolutely no chance of winning.

Chivalry Sect had three spots at the top of Phoenix Rank.

Chivalry Sect also had two people among the top twenty on Dragon Rank!

Wind and Rain Alliance had nothing...

Chivalry Sect had more than two hundred thousand members. Even though they could not compare to Wind and Rain Alliance numbers, when it came to elites, Wind and Rain Alliance could never hope to compare to them.

If it were not for Lin Xiao and Red Dust trying their best to control the situation, Chivalry Sect and Wind and Rain Alliance would have exploded into a full-scale confrontation, and it would be very difficult to say just how many sects Wind and Rain Alliance could have kept in the end.

“Hmph.”

Xie Yi had a scornful and derisive expression on his face.

“Chivalry Sect isn’t as united as I thought it would be either. As long as we can get all our people together, there is no way Chivalry Sect will dare to fight against us. Do you think that there are only a few sects who want to seize resource points from Chivalry Sect?

“Aside from the large local sects in the south who want those resource points, even Towering Palace in the coastal areas want them too. If we truly take action, Chivalry Sect will not be our opponent.”

“Have you forgotten about Chivalry Sect’s ally, Mu Clan?”

Night Rain Follows Wind poured a bucket of cold water over Xie Yi’s head.

“Mu Clan?” Xie Yi laughed coldly and looked around before lowering his voice to speak to Night Rain Follows Wind. “Happy and One Emperor’s final fight is just around the corner. At such a time, Happy will not have the time or heart to take care of Chivalry Sect. Besides, if he really did, do you think that Class One Hall would just watch on the side?”

The certainty in his voice and his calm expression allowed Night Rain Follows Wind to notice something.

“How did you know that Class One Hall and Towering Palace would interfere?” A thought appeared in his head, and Night Rain Follows Wind suddenly cried out in alarm. “Could it be... that you contacted their people?”

“Heh.” Xie Yi smiled smugly. “I didn’t say that. But over this period of time, Towering Palace has indeed done some things. Clear Music can see things farther than others. Perhaps she is already causing trouble to Mu Clan...”

Night Rain Follows Wind said nothing.

He was not an idiot. When he saw Xie Yi being so confident, saying things with absolute certainty, and predicted the situation in the game as well as many other matters, he quickly guessed a few things through everything he had gathered together until then.

He frowned and said, “I knew that there was something wrong! I’ve always found it weird that the people from Chivalry Sect took the initiative to provoke us and worsen the conflict between us. Looks like the people Chivalry Sect chased away were indeed moles from other forces of power.”

Xie Yi’s pupils shrank slightly, but he did not speak.

“You want to take the chance to worsen the conflict even further, and before Happy’s fight against One Emperor, throw Chivalry Sect into chaos and bring mayhem to all of Jiangnan...”

Night Rain Follows Wind instantly felt as if he had become enlightened, and his gaze became sharper.

“You contacted the people from Towering Palace and Class One Hall in order to seize this chance and drag Chivalry Sect down from their position, but have you thought about what will happen if Mu Clan truly comes around to help Chivalry Sect?

“If Happy doesn’t care about his fight against One Emperor, all he will lose is his title as the strongest in the world, while we might be cast aside by Class One Hall and Towering Palace at any moment. We’ll just end up becoming cannon fodder in this matter, a tool that others will throw away once they finish using us!”

“It’s negotiable about who exactly is using who.” Xie Yi snorted coldly. His expression had already changed, and he left his seat. It did not seem like he intended to continue talking to Night Rain Follows Wind. He flung his sleeves and got ready to go down the stairs.

“Stay where you are!” Night Rain Follows Wind’s voice traveled into Xie Yi’s ears from behind. “I don’t care about what you want to do, but I will not allow you to use Wind and Rain Alliance as your tool and make it take this risk with you. You’re removed from your position as vice alliance master!”

“You’re removing me from my position?”

Xie Yi turned around arrogantly. His face was full of contempt, and he said airily, “If you want to remove me, you’ll need more than half of the sect masters agreeing with you. How many people do you think will support you in removing me... Big Brother Wind?”

Once he finished speaking, he released a long string of mocking laughter and left the place with his five guards.

Thud, thud, thud...

Night Rain Follows Wind stood in his spot. His eyes shone with conflict and anger.

Removing Xie Yi was indeed something that was unlikely to happen.

Ever since Xie Yi became the vice master, more sects had joined the alliance. Most of them were contacted by Xie Yi and were convinced to join by him, so their relationship was very good.

It was impossible to go through with removing Xie Yi from his position.

Night Rain Follows Wind said nothing and just stood near the window while watching Xie Yi and his group leaving. He sighed and turned to a table nearby.

“Sorry, I couldn’t convince him to change his mind,” he said with a desolate tone.

“It’s fine. Thanks for your hard work.”

One of the men wearing a Bamboo Hat sitting behind Night Rain Follows Wind drew the curtains and removed his heat. “But our trip here wasn’t in vain since I got to know just who is causing all this trouble behind the scenes.”

When the man removed his Bamboo Hat, he revealed a face that was heroic and awe-inspiring.

If Xie Yi were still around at that moment, he would have cried out in surprise!

The person sitting behind Night Rain Follows Wind was the second most important person in Chivalry Sect, Vice Sect Master Lin Xiao.

He put down his Bamboo Hat with a solemn expression, sighed, and said, “While expanding our sect, we absorbed members far too quickly, and quite a number of moles from different enemy factions joined us. Looks like we’ll need to be more careful in the future. But if they want to use such cheap tactics to destroy Chivalry Sect, I have to say that these people are a little too optimistic.”

“Vice Sect Master Lin, don’t worry, even though I won’t be able to remove Xie Yi from his position, I can convince the sect masters who are close to me not to join the mess with Chivalry Sect. This is something I can still guarantee,” Night Rain Follows Wind stated sincerely.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you.” Lin Xiao looked at him with relief and also made a promise. “I promise you that we will focus on the sects close to Xie Yi, and the flames of war will not affect the other sects in Wind and Rain Alliance.”

“Thank you.”

Night Rain Follows Wind smiled back with resignation and anguish. He then cast a glance at the man beside Lin Xiao. That person did not speak or remove his Bamboo Hat since the start, so Night Rain Follows Wind only spoke a few words more before he bade farewell and left.
