Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

"Oh, and what is that?"

One of the leaders asked.

"According to the Beggar Sect, the center point is the leader of the Hallowed Insect, a group of mercenaries under the Mercenary Union. They have forgotten about honor and have no respect for the tradition. Their actions are causing unrest and chaos."

"What about their power and abilities? What martial art are they practicing? Is there anyone famous or influential among them?"

"Their Leader is as strong as a 8 Stars martial artist. People in Shaanxi and Sichuan call him Thunder God."

The one who answered that question was an old man with an impressive mustache. He broke his silence and suddenly the room's atmosphere had changed.

"That guy... That hateful and wretched guy killed the 3rd Elder of our Wudang Sect as well as the junior disciples going for him to train. Alliance Leader, I won't allow you to get in the way of my revenge. That man is our Sect hateful enemy! We will be the one killing him."

Training was the Murim Alliance's way to call something that bordered a taboo they were willing to close their eyes from. And in this case, they called the Supreme Evil epigraph's incident in Hallowing Ravine as training.

Everyone understood the reference immediately. Most forces gathering in the Murim Alliance today also participated in that incident and even killed each other. However, once again, that was the fact they were willing to close their eyes and ignore their loss.

After all, everyone at least gained some treasures from the ruin. Save from the raging Wudang Sect.

"Calm down, Wudang Sect Leader. You're overstepping your bounds." Xue Wang said, "I have no reason to stop you. However, we also can't openly attack them without a plan. The Emperor's Court won't stay silent if we create a commotion."

"I understand. Please forgive me, Alliance Leader."

The old man bowed his head. Although he did that, the burning rage he felt could even melt rocks and turn them into lava. That was how much Zhang Tian hated the existence of a man named Leo and the group called Hallowed Insect.

"Unless we have a good reason to attack them, we won't move. But, since the Hallowed Insect's Leader is a problem, I suggest we send a message. The Tang and Hao Clan can't hide their intentions for too long." Xue Wang continued.

"Yes, that's true."

"We need to tell them to cease this immediately and ask for compensation. We also have to take care of Hao Sect while we're at it. They know too many of our secrets!"

"That's right. It's time to show them their rightful place. How dare an Unorthodox Sect try to claim part of our power!"

"Allow me to send a message right now."

No one disagreed with the Alliance Leader's decision. Rather, they even supported him when they saw the chance of getting a nice bite of a pie called Hao Sect.

Bang!

At that moment, the door slammed open and a man in a robe entered. His face showed a worried and hurried expression.

"What is it, Huang? We are in the middle of a meeting." Xue Wang expressed his displeasure.

The man breathed heavily as he knelt and cupped his hands.

"My apologies, Alliance Leader. But there is news that needs your immediate attention. Something terrible has happened in the Outcast Village."

Outcast Village, a place hidden by the Murim Alliance. The forest around it acted like a natural barrier that could confuse people who were lost or looking for the village.

Only a few knew the exact location and could enter without being caught.

"The Outcast Village? What news?"

Xue Wang asked, his expression dark. Out of all people, he was someone who valued the importance of the village and the secret it held.

Gulping, the man named Huang revealed the news.

"The Outcast Village... Our spy has been caught." He said, pausing a little to take a little gulp once again.

That showed his nervousness.

"And they... They left the forest and headed to Chengdu. From the last letter we received this morning, it seems they... They are going to join the Mercenary Union."

Once he finished, the room became as cold as ice.

"Impossible."

"They joined the Mercenary Union?!"

"W-We can't allow them to! Alliance Leader, this is a crisis!"

Everyone panicked and expressed their anger.

The Murim Alliance had spies planted in the Outcast Village for a long time. And, they were the ones who had to monitor and report to them about the condition of the village.

But now, the news had turned everything upside down.

Xue Wang didn't panic.

"This is a problem, indeed."

Having said that, he stood up and moved his hands. His brows touched, and his expression became solemn.

"Send your fastest messenger to the Tang and Hao Sect. Tell them that we will no longer tolerate their behavior. And, let's see if the Mercenary Union is really worthy of our time or not."

"Yes."

Huang bowed and quickly exited the room.

Meanwhile, Xue Wang stared at the map of the city.

He was not worried.

No matter how strong the mercenaries were, they were not ready for the coming storm.

Murim Alliance had been the strongest since the beginning, and now that they were going to attack, the mercenaries had no chance.

"Let's see what they're capable of."

The men gathering in the room nodded and started planning their attack.

Little did they know, a small metal toy was looking at everything from the ceiling. Its mouth, filled with sharp teeth, was equipped with a microphone that caught all of their conversation.

No one could feel its presence as it had no Qi. All the strong martial artists were unaware of its existence and the fact that similar toys could be found almost everywhere in Sichuan and some area in Shaanxi.

And in Chengdu, the controller of the metal toy caressed the bigger toy, its main body, and looked at her companion on her side, a beautiful lady wearing pink-tinted glasses.

"They begin to move."

"As expected." The companion, Jessica, nodded in understanding. "It's already time. Let's start the next phase of our plan."
