  However, if the Wild Wolf understood the meaning behind killing Wind Chimes once, there was no way Happy would not know their goal. He knew about it even clearer than those Wild Wolves. If Wind Chimes died even once, it would mean that all her efforts would go to waste. She would need one year at the very least to recover, and the impact of this on Wandering Know-it-all and Wind Chimes was very great.

  Hence, from the moment he drew close to this place and noticed Wind Chimes' condition, Happy paid close attention to every single action that Wild Wolf did.

  Once Tendon Changing Classic reached the ninth realm, his hearing became sharper, and his eyes became clearer. His perception of his surroundings was very strong, and his detection skills were no longer inferior to Nine Yang Divine Skill.

  At the moment Wild Wolves raised his hand, Happy charged to Wind Chimes before the glare could reach her, even though he acted a little later than that Wild Wolf.

  Whoosh!

  The Wild Wolf's hidden weapon technique was incredibly discreet, but so was Happy's other act. At the moment Happy charged to Wind Chimes, it concealed Happy's other action, causing that Wild Wolf to be unable to detect it.

  Clang!

  The sound was clear. The sound of metal intersected with each other.

  That thin and black glare was intercepted by a snow-white light. Both lights sank into the ground near Wind Chimes.

  That accurate and beautiful throwing knife not only shocked Wind Chimes, but even that Wild Wolf had his expression sink. His gaze when he stared at Happy became more solemn and dangerous.

  "Thinking of bullying a little girl just because you can't win against me? You call yourself skilled when you do this? Are all Wild Wolves only this skilled?" Happy already appeared in front of Wind Chimes. He stared at that Wild Wolf, whose expression was dark, and slowly got up.

  That Wild Wolf snorted coldly before he suddenly laughed. "I'd like to see just how you'll protect her!"

  Even though the strength Happy displayed was great, seemed experienced, and even seemed to be restraining himself, fighting against him was one thing, and protecting a useless, normal person in front of a powerful enemy was another matter.

  This meant that next, Happy had to stand in front of Wind Chimes without moving an inch. If he did and missed blocking even a single attack, Wind Chimes might end up dead.

  "Isn't your close-quarters combat abilities really good? I'd like to see how long you can last under my attacks."

  Right when he finished talking, three black glares shot out.

  Happy's expression instantly became unpleasant.

  Just as expected, this person was incredibly sensible.

  He actually used the advantage of his qi realm to launch long-distance attacks. Because of that, he cannot move at all and can only brace himself to receive his attacks while he stood in front of Wind Chimes.

  Black flames instantly filled his longsword.

  At the moment the lights approached him, Happy attacked.

  His body shuddered slightly. Happy seemed to have easily blocked those fierce lights. He did not even take half a step back.

  The Wild Wolf looked surprised again. "What high Arm Strength.

  "You seldom see a player who has such high Arm Strength and Affinity at the same time when you're just at Moksha Realm."

  When he reached the last part, he did not forget to add a hostile sentence. "Your movements are also incredibly agile."

  "I will never forget your kindness in saving me. Regardless of whether I live or not today, I, Wind Chimes, will definitely recommend you to my master and repay you greatly," Wind Chimes said behind Happy.

  'Repay me greatly?

  'This Wind Chimes doesn't seem as adorable as the girl over there.'

  While he thought of that, Happy suddenly noticed that Wind Chimes seemed to be using his body to hide some movements.

  Happy did not turn his head around, and neither did he say anything. But he understood that Wind Chimes must have said those words to divert the Wild Wolf's attention.

  Coincidentally, he felt that this Wild Wolf was indeed very troublesome and difficult to deal with, which was why he decided to go along with Wind Chimes' topic and laughed. "I see, so you're Wind Chimes, known as Demonic Zither in the game. I heard that everyone will need to pay ten million taels of silver to have your master hide them once. At that time, if you can get your master to hide me multiple times so that I'm not located by bastards, it'll do."

  "That's not a problem!" While Wind Chimes answered loudly, she discreetly and quietly dragged over the Sky Demon Zither that was tossed to the side.

  While both conversed with each other, they looked as if they were not paying attention to the Wild Wolf.

  That Wild Wolf laughed coldly. "Looks like you do indeed know Wild Wolves, but you dared to stop us from our goal? No matter who it is, no one can protect you!"

  "Hmph, I'd say that the one who can protect himself is you!"

  Wind Chimes said with a cold gaze, "Since you attacked me, then you should be prepared to be chased down by the entire Chinese server! From the moment you attacked, my master should have already obtained the news and ordered people to kill you. Do you think that you have the chance to leave the Chinese server?!"

  Even though she still did not have any true qi, her words were still very intimidating. Even though Wind Chimes and Wandering Know-it-all did not belong to any organization, Wandering Know-it-all had an otherworldly position in the Chinese server, and his disciple, Wind Chimes, was Six-fingered Demonic Zither's only successor. Her song can break a person's soul, and both people actually had a good relationship with most sects in the game. They could mobilize forces at any moment they want.

  With Wandering Know-it-all's golden reputation calling out to them, hunting down a few people in the Chinese server was nothing difficult.

  "Heh, you're already almost dead, and you're still acting so tough?!"

  That Wild Wolf was already used to death and blood, there was no way he would be intimidated by a girl. "Even if you want to stall for time, it's useless. The city closest to this place is a few miles from this place. When Wandering Know-it-all's people arrive, I would have fled without a trace. As for the other two… Do you actually think that those amateurs will be able to stop us when we want to break out of a place?"

  He stopped talking for a moment before he laughed coldly again. "Girl, you're thinking about stalling for time?

  "Unfortunately, I already don't have the interest of wasting my breath with you. You two will die here today!"

  His eyes shone with a gold glare. The Wild Wolf attacked swiftly, and in an instant, he threw three knives, and he also vanished from the spot.

  Happy's expression changed a little.

  Once he locked down the person's figure, Happy went up with great resolution.

  Dragon Coil!

  At the moment he moved away to leave Wind Chimes, the fourth style in Ten True Dragon Styles descended, and an invisible as well as vast presence gathered quickly in front of Happy.

  His defense for Indestructible Body increased by leaps and bounds, and it withstood the Wild Wolf's three knives.

  Under the Wild Wolf's surprised gaze, Happy was struck thrice, but he did not even sway. In a moment, he arrived in front of the Wild Wolf.

  "Get lost!"

  But the Wild Wolf reacted quickly. When he saw Happy breaking or receiving his attacks repeatedly, his heart never wavered. He threw out another knife unthinkingly. Then, with an astonishing speed, he left behind an afterimage, intending to circ.u.mnavigate Happy and killing Wind Chimes first.

  But at the moment he moved, he saw Happy bizarrely avoid the knife, but that was not all, he suddenly formed a claw with one hand and came to grab him! When he did this, he was filled with openings, and the places he could not defend were all revealed.

  'What's going on?'

  Right when this thought appeared in the Wild Wolf's mind, his expression soon changed.

  A po
wer he could not hope to resist traveled out from Happy's hand.

  His body froze.

  The direction in which he wanted to move was seen through beforehand, and he seemed to have intentionally delivered himself into Happy's hand.

  'Is this a method to block acupressure points?'

  A bone-chilling sensation rose in the Wild Wolf's heart, and he had already made the intention to activate his body fortification so that he can withstand Happy's attacks.

  Unfortunately, since he was successful in using Dragon Capture, Happy will clearly not easily lose his chance to destroy his enemy.

  He grabbed, seized, twisted, and flipped him.

  The Wild Wolf was instantly treated like a rascal on the streets and was easily sent tumbling on the ground.

  During the chaos, the Wild Wolf sensed that his arm was still in Happy's grasp.

  While he was airborne, he noticed a cold expression appear on Happy's face. Then, a series of almost terrifying blows laced with hidden force shot into him through his joints and important acupressure points.

  Thud!

  At that moment, Wind Chimes widened her eyes in disbelief while she watched. She could not believe what she saw.

  When the Wild Wolf engaged in close-quarters combat with the mysterious swordsman, he was grabbed, and he was sent somersaulting in the air like a sandbag.

  Happy's punches landed nonstop on the Wild Wolf's body.

  From the scene of that Wild Wolf having his blood gush everywhere, Wind Chimes was certain that there was no need for her to use the hidden weapon she drew from her Sky Demon Zither.

  The mysterious and unfamiliar swordsman, oh no, she should refer to him as a martial artist now, did not give the Wild Wolf a chance to struggle or fight back. He did not even have the right to land on the ground. In less than ten seconds, he was struck at least thirty times, and his face was even disfigured.

  "When did such a powerful elite appear in the Chinese server?" Wind Chimes s.u.c.k.e.d in a deep breath. If it were not because her master Wandering Know-it-all could clearly investigate a person's origins and everything else about him, she would truly wonder whether her savior was sent by Wild Wolves.

  This lasted for around half a minute before Happy finally stopped attacking.

  Thud!

  The Wild Wolf's corpse crashed against the ground like a torn sandbag. His face was bruised and mangled. Not a single piece of uninjured flesh could be seen on him.

  "...You're too violent."

  "Yeah, kind of." Happy giggled a little bashfully. He suddenly turned to Wind Chimes and said seriously, "Now, it's time for me to get my reward."

  "Oh." Wind Chimes was stunned.

  'Aren't the heroes who save people in the land of wanderers supposed to have a strong sense of integrity and are humble? But this guy…'

  "Don't worry, there aren't many Wild Wolves in the Chinese server. They won't start taking revenge on you right now. So could you protect me so that I can leave this place?" Wind Chimes explained.

  "If I help a person, I will help them to the end. I will naturally bring you to Suzhou, but later on, could you tell your master to repay my kindness and use his Universe Secrets Inkstone so that a normal diviner will not be able to easily find me?"

  "By listening to your words, you seem to have a lot of enemies. By the way, I still don't know what your name is."

  "Happy."

  Wind Chimes was stunned silent.

  Chapter 968 - Contact Wandering Know-it-all

  "Happy? You're Happy?" Wind Chimes widened her eyes and sized up the mysterious young man in front of her carefully with a strange gaze, as if she wanted to get to know her savior once more. "You're the Happy who's said to have laid comatose in bed for one and a half years?"

  Happy smiled wanly and bent down to pick his loot. He answered, "Since you mentioned a comatose patient, then I do think that you're talking about me."

  "Oh, pardon me. I didn't do it on purpose. My master just mentioned you constantly over the past few days, and that's why I blurted out your name out of shock." It was only then that Wind Chimes thought that her words were a little hurtful, and she quickly explained.

  When he heard this, Happy was stunned, and his expression changed. "Wandering Know-it-all talked about me with you? I didn't expect that I'd still be regarded so highly… What did he say?"

  "My master actually admires you quite a bit."

  Once she learned of Happy's identity, Wind Chimes' last suspicion in her heart was cleared. She did not interrupt Happy while he picked up his loot either, and just used an incredibly admiring glance to stare at a certain someone while he bent down to grope at corpses. "My master said that waking up from a nightmare and betrayal lasting for one and a half years and even quickly getting back on your feet will require you an iron will. He even said that there is not even a need for him to even use Universe Secrets Inkstone to determine that Blood Alliance and Class One Hall's days of living a carefree life in the Chinese server are numbered now, because they made an enemy out of someone like you…"

  'This Wandering Know-it-all is truly not a simple person!' Happy thought solemnly and said, "Looks like I have quite the positive image in Wandering Know-it-all's mind. That's good... I wonder if I can ask for a discount when I trade with him in the future."

  "Ah! I'll tell my master about you right now." Wind Chimes seemed to have suddenly remembered something and cried out, "Your Killer Star effect is about to disappear soon, I think. I'll have my master include you in the five elements.

  "I've long since considered Class One Hall and Blood Alliance an eyesore. They've never fought at full strength against Wild Wolves, and they also seem to be holding secret trades with Wild Wolves."

  While she spoke, she quickly wrote a letter before releasing it.

  The unintentional leak of information from Wind Chimes caused Happy to frown.

  "Class One Hall and Blood Alliance are working with Wild Wolves? Is this information real?"

  "It's precisely because I don't have information that I didn't dare say anything in the past, but this time, Wild Wolves managed to sneak into the Chinese plains to attack me, and they even managed to hide here for more than a month. I am about seventy percent sure that it's because Blood Robes and Dream Clouds are working with Wild Wolves.

  "If they didn't have a sect with a powerful core supporting them, they will definitely not be able to hide from Universe Secrets Inkstone!"

  Wind Chimes' cold expression caused Happy to find it hard for him to connect her with the other Wind Chimes. This Wind Chimes had a wisdom in her that allowed her to see through everything, along with a presence about her which allowed her to be independent.

  "Then, you're saying that you don't have proof."

  Happy sounded a little disappointed.

  If he had proof, then Blood Alliance and Class One Hall will soon be torn apart!

  "This time, let's see whether they will help those three escaping refugees from Wild Wolves flee from the Chinese server. If they dare help them, they will definitely leave traces of their aid behind."

  Wind Chimes was very confident toward Wandering Know-it-all.

  As she spoke, the messenger pigeon returned into Wind Chimes' hands.

  She opened the letter and took a peek at it. Then, she looked at Happy with a strange glance. "My master has already included you in the five elements. Now, normal diviners will have a hard time figuring out your whereabouts and your information, but he asked us to immediately head to Gusu City. He also asked you to add him as a friend because he wants to talk to you alone."

  There were only a few people in the Chinese server who could make Wandering Know-it-all take the initiative to add them as a friend.

  This was the first thing that shocked Wind Chimes.

  "My bamboo raft is nearby."

  At that moment, Wind Chimes seemed to have suddenly understood why her master chose to add Happy as a friend.

  When Happy became quiet, he gained a relaxed
presence, as if he cared about nothing at all, and it was rather similar to Wandering Know-it-all's.

  *****

  This was the first time Happy exchanged letters with Wandering Know-it-all in this world. But Happy no longer felt excited or worked up.

  Perhaps it was because after experiencing so many things, he felt incredibly calm.

  Aside from thanking him, Wandering Know-it-all told Happy once again that he had already included Happy into the Five Elements Matrix in Universe Secrets Inkstone. From now on, everything about Happy would be a mystery, and it will be hard to figure him out. Unless the diviner's divination skill surpassed Wandering Know-it-all's and reached the heights of people such as Gui Guzi and Old Heaven Secrets, no one would be able to figure out where Happy was or gather any information about him, and that included the Prophet.

  [Even the Prophet can't find me?] Happy remained silent for a while before he replied.

  This was because in the other world, he remembered that the Prophet had the ability to break concealments, but he did not have the ability to create concealments, or else, Wei Zhentian would not have been able to find him at Mount Song, and neither would the people from Class One Hall be able to locate him.

  Happy instantly smiled wanly. It was only then that he remembered that the Prophet had never shown his face to the people in this world. There was not a single bit of information about him in the outside world.

  But since he already mentioned him, he could only try to mend the situation with his subsequent words. [I heard about him a little.]

  This time, Wandering Know-it-all replied quickly, [As expected of the former top sixteen in the world. In the beginning, many people said that you're just a brute of a hero from the Chinese server. You don't have any organizations or forces of power supporting you. By the looks of it now, it seems like that information is slightly inaccurate.]
