Sword Among Us c1-1268

by Black Swordsman Online

  "I have never failed to capture a woman I set my eyes on."

  Sect Master Extreme Yin looked incredibly confident. But before he even finished speaking, he saw Shi Feixuan swing her longsword, and two flying needles were cut down soundlessly.

  Sect Master Extreme Yin's face tensed up.

  "You're pretty good. You actually managed to dodge my Profound Yin Needle."

  "Old Extreme Yin, if you this is all you have, then I suggest that you die here today."

  The longsword in Shi Feixuan's hands shone with a blinding light, and it was so bright that Old Extreme Yin narrowed his eyes. He could practically not see Shi Feixuan anymore.

  "The light of Clear Sword is not something someone with such low mental fortitude can block." Shi Feixuan spoke at a volume that was basically a murmur before attacking.

  But at the same time, several flying needles shot out from the old man's sleeves, and a smug, evil cackle rose from Old Extreme Yin's lips in an extremely confident manner.

  "Fall!"

  Chapter 585 - Womanizer!

  Old Extreme Yin never appeared in Twin of Brothers, but Happy had heard of him before. In Happy's previous life, he was known as someone whose skills with poison could compare with those of Tang Sect. Due to his ability with crafting poison and administering it, the people from both the righteous and evil paths were incredibly wary of him. Even Empress Yin of Yin Weed Faction treated him as an important guest when she received him.

  "Fall!"

  When Old Extreme Yin said those words, Happy noticed that some strange changes had happened in the air. As flying needles that fell on the ground and flying needles that were still in the air intersected with each other, an abnormal fragrance quickly appeared.

  Shi Feixuan staggered!

  The brightness of her Clear Sword instantly became much dimmer.

  Her sword slash was easily blocked by Old Extreme Yin, even though it contained an astonishing momentum. But he was a cautious person, so even when he saw that his target was affected by his poison, he did not rush forward.

  'Old Extreme Yin, what a man. His skills with poison are really good.'

  And even if Shi Feixuan noticed that she had been set up quietly, her gaze remained as calm as water. She was so calm that it was admirable.

  "The people from Kind Boathouse are indeed extraordinary. You're just a normal female disciple, yet you possess such a temperament." Old Extreme Yin had already noticed that Shi Feixuan was different from all the women he had encountered before.

  She actually managed to remain calm under his Cold Extreme Yin Poison.

  At that moment, a clear and pleasant laughter sliced through the night sky before the newcomer descended near them. It was Wan Wan in all her enchanting glory. and she appeared in a breathtaking manner.

  "Hehe… The lady has noticed that there is someone protecting her nearby, which is why she is so calm. Am I right?" She stopped talking for a moment before she said with a smile on her lips, "Senior Extreme Yin, I lack a female attendant by my side right now. Why don't we make a deal? Let me have her, and I will choose a few evil cult disciples for you."

  "You're the only one who can compare to this lass in the entire evil cult. What do you think?" Old Extreme Yin did not expect that the girl would chase after him. He snorted codly and said, "Or do you want to personally come and serve me?"

  "I have no problem in personally serving you, but I'm afraid that your life will be cut short, and you might die in your bed." Wan Wan might sound respectful, but she did not bother to hide her mocking tone toward Old Extreme Yin.

  The old man laughed coldly. "I can't be bothered bantering with you. I'm bringing this lass back, and I'd like to see how Empress Yin is going to ask for her from me."

  "Senior Extreme Yin, are you blind or deaf? I mentioned that the lady has a protector nearby, and you are confident in taking her down?"

  Wan Wan's words finally made Old Extreme Yin put on a solemn expression. He looked around, and clear laughter suddenly traveled into his ears from a distance.

  "Lady Wan Wan, I really do not want to be enemies with you, but this lady is my bosom friend, and she is a woman of unparalleled beauty in her generation. I cannot bear to see such a beautiful woman fall into your hands."

  The elegant and handsome Hou Xibai with his white robes and Beauty Fan arrived near the trio like a phantom. There was a smile on his face, and he looked calm.

  When Shi Feixuan saw that Hou Xibai had appeared, she sat down in a composed manner without even bothering about his status of someone from the evil cult and began circulating her qi to force the poison out of her body.

  "Phantasm Body Movement Skill, Beauty Fan… You are Hou Xibai of Flowers Sect, Evil King's disciple."

  Old Extreme Yin had thought that the person who protected Shi Feixuan would be someone from the righteous path, so he did not expect that it would be a person from the evil cult as well, and he was even Evil King's successor. What was more, he showed signs of wanting to fight against them, which shocked Old Extreme Yin.

  "Indeed, it is I."

  Hou Xibai stood under the moon. His appearance and bearing were both extraordinary, causing all those who saw him to instantly feel fond of him. He stood beside Shi Feixuan when he said those words, and he gave off the bold feeling that he was about to cast aside the world to give all his love to a beauty.

  "Sir Hou, everyone knows that you love those who are beautiful, so I believe that you will not attack me, yes?" Wan Wan moved forward daintily, and her footsteps were very charming.

  Hou Xibai fanned himself and laughed wanly. "I naturally do not wish to be enemies with you, Lady Wan Wan, but I hope that you will not trouble Feixuan, or else, I will be very troubled."

  "Hmph, you are such a womanizer. But you might have some difficulties wanting to save Shi Feixuan with just your abilities alone."

  Wan Wan's eyes wandered about before she snorted softly and said, "Old Extreme Yin, block Mister Hou. I will bring the lady back to my faction."

  "...Alright."

  Even though Old Extreme Yin was reluctant to hand Shi Feixuan to Wan Wan, it was still better than allowing her to flee.

  Shi Feixuan had been listening to their conversation, and she naturally knew that with Hou Xibai's strength, it was impossible for him to fight against both people. She opened her eyes and sighed.

  "Mister Hou, I understand your kind will. Please leave, or else, if your master learns about this, he will scold you."

  "Lady Feixuan, don't worry. When a man stands on his own in the world and makes his own decisions, he has to protect the safety of the woman he loves, for everything else is just empty talk."

  Right when Hou Xibai finished speaking, Wan Wan and Old Extreme Yin charged toward him at the same time.

  "I'd like to see how you'll protect that girl."

  When the three began to fight, another unexpected voice cut into the fray. "The night is beautiful today! If you fight against each other, you'll just be destroying its beauty."

  Another unforeseen change occurred. Wan Wan's petite body froze before she removed herself from the battlefield. She looked in the direction from which the voice had come with slight surprise in her eyes. A black figure quickly drew closer, and she could see the person in a few moments.

  Shi Feixuan also stared at the person who had come over in surprise.

  Blue robes…

  "I see, so it's you sir. Are you going to be like Mister Hou and fight against me for a woman?" A clear and pleasant voice that carried a faint hint of bitterness rose into the air, causing those who heard it to be unable to help themselves and sink into it.

  Hou Xibai was stunned when he saw a young man with extraordinary bearing and elegance move over with a smile.

  "Brother Hou, you're the best at dealing with women, so I'll leave Lady Wan Wan to you. Please appease her while I'll undertake the difficult task of blocking this horrid old man so that I can buy some time for the lady."

  "If that is your
offer, it would be disrespectful of me to decline it." When Hou Xibai saw that the person who came over was on his side, he was instantly delighted. "I have not asked for your name yet, my friend."

  "I'm Happy, disciple of the Murong Clan."

  Once he said those words, Hou Xibai and Shi Feixuan's expressions changed. "You're Young Swordsman Happy of Gusu's Murong Clan? I've heard of your name for a long time!"

  "If that's the case, I will have to trouble you, Young Swordsman Happy. In the future, I will personally come to your clan to offer my thanks."

  "Hmph!"

  A cold snort reached the trio from the side.

  Old Extreme Yin was extremely angry.

  Everything should have gone smoothly, but he did not expect that accidents would occur one after another. First, Wan Wan showed up, and she was followed by Hou Xibai. Now, another young disciple from the righteous path showed up.

  Even though Old Extreme Yin had also heard of Happy's reputation, the youth was still just someone from the younger generation, and by the looks of it, his presence was very normal.

  'How dare he call me a horrid old man?!'

  He instantly began laughing coldly.

  "I'd like to see just how strong are the youngsters nowadays that makes them dare interfere in everything that we do!"

  When Happy heard that, he turned around to look at him.

  "And I was thinking about witnessing your abilities, OLD MAN."

  Chapter 586 - Resistant to All Poison

  Reality showed that youngsters were all reckless and easily provoked, but some elderly folks were also incredibly hot-tempered. Once anyone violated their taboo, they would lash out with a reckless attitude and crazy passion.

  Old Extreme Yin moved like lightning. He threw a violent straight punch and had his fist crash into Happy's. The dragon-shaped vortex instantly dissolved into nothing, and Happy sensed an astonishing force coming from the old man's hand. The old man's qi was very rich, and he might be much stronger than Yang Xuyan.

  At the same time, Happy could clearly sense a thin silver needle shoot out from his sleeves at the moment their fists contacted each other. It pricked him at lightning speed.

  He felt pain on the back of his hand as if electricity surged through his body.

  'This is bad!'

  Old Extreme Yin was an incredibly sly person. He actually chose to use sinister ways to administer his poison even when fighting against someone of the younger generation.

  Happy moved back and took a look. There was a black needle hole on the back of his hand, and the wound was surrounded by black marks.

  But surprisingly, the invasive properties of the poison did not seem to be great. It did not invade his body quickly!

  When that thought appeared in Happy's head, he quietly activated Nine Yang Divine Skill. An astonishing heat wave quickly surged through his body, and it was so hot that it made Happy feel as if he was boiling! The heat hastily went to the wound that had been poisoned, and a black trickle of blood was quickly forced out.

  The clear sound of the system notification rose at that moment.

  "Ding!

  "Triggered the hidden attribute of Nine Yang Divine Skill: resistant to all poison!"

  Happy felt his heart shudder before joy washed over it. He did not expect that a blessing in the disguise of a misfortune would come to him and trigger the hidden attribute of Nine Yang Divine Skill. But he did not show it on his face.

  "Young Swordsman Happy, what's wrong?" Shi Feixuan and Hou Xibai noticed the abnormality in Happy, and when they thought of Old Extreme Yin's methods, they could not help but worry.

  "HAHAHAHAHA!"

  Old Extreme Yin threw his head back and laughed madly. "The most outstanding disciple of the righteous path? You're just boasting without grounds! You can't receive even one strike from me! You're nothing!"

  He stopped talking for a moment before he continued, "Hmph! You've been poisoned by Extreme Yin Poison Needle, and you won't be able to gather your qi. I can't be bothered fighting against you lot anymore.

  "I'll kill you first, then take down that brat from Flowers Sect and send him back to Evil King so that he will personally teach him a lesson."

  Once he finished speaking, he jumped with a cold expression. With a knifehand strike, he formed a saber glare that had an astonishing momentum in the air. It tore through the sky and went cutting at Happy.

  Hou Xibai and Shi Feixuan felt their hearts sink.

  After all, Hou Xibai had to fend against Wan Wan and protect Shi Feixuan. He did not dare take action to help Happy. As he watched the saber glare land on Happy's head, he sighed regretfully.

  However, just when everyone thought that it would be difficult for Happy to escape from the disaster, he suddenly moved.

  He did not retreat, but instead moved forward and shot into the air like a shooting star!

  He twisted and avoided Old Extreme Yin's knifehand strike before he tapped Old Extreme Yin with a finger at a close distance.

  Happy had already taken note of Old Extreme Yin's techniques. Hence, Old Extreme Yin could only watch in disbelief as Happy attacked repeatedly with his strength never decreasing in the slightest. Fierce finger-generated gusts of wind landed silently.

  Old Extreme Yin's qi surged, and his body fortification trembled violently.

  Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud, thud!

  As for Happy, once he landed on the ground in a relaxed and leisurely manner, he tapped against it and rushed toward the dishevelled Old Extreme Yin without hesitation.

  A cold look appeared on the old man's face.

  'I refuse to believe it!'

  He gritted his teeth, crossed his arms, and flung them. Dense waves of flying needles went to cover all of Happy's possible escape routes in a manner that filled up the entire sky.

  "Damn you, you old monster!" Happy cursed in surprise.

  He flung his fingers as quickly as the wind, and in an instant, a dragon-shaped vortex that looked as if it had physical substance formed in the air.

  "ROAR!"

  A dragon roar rose swiftly, and it contained the power of Wind Spirit Spin. It fiercely negated most of the damage from the countless flying needles.

  Even though Happy missed some of the flying needles, they could no longer create problems for him

  "How many poison needles do you have left? Bring them all out!"

  Since Happy had already used Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, he made use of the swiftly increasing momentum to rush toward Old Extreme Yin with an indomitable spirit and an angry shout.

  He struck at the air twice with two palm strikes!

  Boom! Boom!

  When Old Extreme Yin saw that his attack had been easily negated by a brat, he was incredibly angry, but when he saw the astonishing palm-generated wind charging toward him, he did not dare receive it head-on. He moved, and the ground exploded. Two big holes, one of which was deeper than the other, appeared where he had stood.

  But dodging it was nothing. Old Extreme Yin did not immediately notice that the profound secret of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was that it would become stronger with each blow, and its momentum would just keep increasing.

  When Old Extreme Yin finally realized that, Happy's momentum had already increased to the point that he was nearly at Inaction Realm. He attacked with a palm, and the huge dragon-shaped vortex moved as if it were fluctuating water waves that could be seen clearly. With a muffled dragon roar, it charged toward Old Extreme Yin, and even the air froze because of it.

  Whoosh! Whoosh!

  Two needles shot out without sound.

  They moved through the dragon-shaped vortex and pierced Happy's body.

  Happy grunted. His Nine Yang Divine Skill automatically protected his body to block some of the damage. Then, the qi cultivation technique circulated on its own to quickly force out the poison from the needles.

  Since Old Extreme Yin delayed the fight, it allowed Happy to deliver two more strikes. His momentum had now comple
tely reached Inaction Realm. With an angry roar, a four-clawed golden dragon swiftly left his body and rammed into Old Extreme Yin's body viciously.

  Old Extreme Yin's body fortification was already very shaky because of Happy's Wind Spirit Spin and the previous Joined Finger attacks. Now, when he was struck by Dragon Fights in the Wild, he was instantly sent flying away, and his body fortification qi shattered on the spot.

  Old Extreme Yin suffered a great loss. He did not dare stop and used the power from Happy's palm strike to quickly leave, and while he fled, he did not forget to throw a handful of flying needles at Happy.

  "That useless old man."

  When Wan Wan saw that Old Extreme Yin had lost to Happy, she was not nervous. Instead, she snorted coldly while seeming to be delighted by his misfortune.

  "Sir, you are indeed an outstanding hero among the younger generation and unanimously recommended by the heroes of the world. I've become even more captivated by you after seeing you fight. When will you come to Yin Weed Faction? I will definitely clean up my bed and wait for you."

  She stopped for a while before she moved her beautiful eyes to Shi Feixuan. "Senior sister, you are lucky that you have two people protecting you. I am truly… so… jealous. The next time I have a chance, I will bring you back to Yin Weed Faction and hide you from sight so that they can shift their eyes to me."

  The three people in the area were all stunned silent.

  "My lady, if you can still move, we should leave in haste. Or else, Old Extreme Yin and Wan Wan, who have temporarily left, might send reinforcements. It's best that we do not stay here," Happy said to Shi Feixuan after turning to face her.

  Hou Xibaid nodded in agreement. "Young Swordsman Happy is right. The people of the evil cult change their minds constantly… Perhaps one day, I will have to be enemies with you."

  As he spoke, his gaze stayed on Happy's face but he soon cast a deep glance at Shi Feixuan, who was like an orchid in the valley. Then, he sighed. "Young Swordsman Happy, I will let you take care of Feixuan. I will return now to ask for an antidote for her."
