*****
Naturally Happy had long since recognized Whirlwind Young Li. However, right now, he knew that this was not the time to speak, and it was not convenient for him to speak either.
Under Bloody Hell Saber's protection, Flame Wolf's face turned red with rage. His expression turned so savage that his features were nearly twisted together. He glared at Happy viciously. "Ha… I thought that Wandering Know-it-all didn't want to take revenge, so I didn't expect that he still sent someone here! Looks like we've been set up by Wandering Know-it-all a long time ago. He set a trap over here and waited for us to fall into it."
Happy gave no comment about this.
He originally did not have a high chance of winning against two elites at the peak of Inaction Realm and whose strength was not at all inferior to Blood Robes if he fought against them head on. It was precisely because of their paranoia that they fell for his trap.
However, when the others heard this news, they felt that as if a truck had rammed into them. They avoided the battlefield like the plague and looked shocked while they sized up Happy.
'Wandering Know-it-all?
'What relationship does Happy have with Wandering Know-it-all?'
Many people had countless questions pop up in their heads, and that included Whirlwind Young Li, who could not help but ask Wen Yuan to pinch him so that he could check whether he was dreaming.
"I have no choice. It's because you Wild Wolves are too famous and too wicked. You won't even spare the disciple of someone as kind as Wandering Know-it-all. This time, I just can't let this slide, which is why I agreed to help Wandering Know-it-all to help kill you." Happy chose the perfect timing to toss out an even more astonishing piece of news.
Countless gazes were instantly trained on Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber!
Wild Wolves…
Many people had their expressions change on the spot.
Wild Wolves used threats, coercion, assassination, and other despicable methods to monopolize many of the resources from a lot of sects in the world, and this matter had long since been known through the entire world. Only the Chinese server was not affected by it, and this was something that the Chinese prided themselves with, but at the same time, it was the topic that they found was the most s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e to them.
When they heard that Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber were both from Wild Wolves, the players around the area instantly understood what was going on.
'No wonder why their equipment is so good…'
'So, they're from Wild Wolves…'
'Their goal for coming here into the Chinese server this time is to fight against Wandering Know-it-all and our elites here!'
'Damn them!'
'A good thing the other guy died…'
'If that's the case, is Happy currently working with Wandering Know-it-all to fight against Wild Wolves?'
Within a moment, a whole slew of thoughts raced through the surrounding players' heads.
Very soon, a deep hatred for the same enemy rose within each player's body.
'What a cunning brat.' Flame Wolf scowled, and his heart was full of anxiety.
If Wandering Know-it-all was the one who exposed them, they were not afraid, because Wandering Know-it-all could only at most make those elites from large sects come over, because if a person who stood at a high position in the game called out to the players, normal players will usually ignore it because of various emotions.
And then, the three Wild Wolves could beat Wandering Know-it-all at his own game and earn some money from their kills.
But Happy stirred up the normal players' emotions and turn their hatred on them because he was not attached to any sect but had fame, reputation, and strength, and was also at Moksha Realm. He was the perfect representation of the general player.
Happy naturally saw everything, and he expected that Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber would definitely begin trying to break out of the encirclement when the elites from Six Doors arrive. He picked up the items Golden Rakkhasa dropped due to the Killer Star effect, put them into his Universe Bag, and charged at the duo with his body lowered.
Whoosh!
He moved as fast as lightning.
But Bloody Hell Saber swung his saber at an even faster speed.
However, perhaps it was because of his trauma when they fought against each other at Common Reed Land, Bloody Hell Saber immediately activated his qi realm fully, used his body fortification, and even executed defensive stances. His saber continued rotating around him with a fierce saber momentum, and it made him like a hedgehog, which allowed him to protect himself.
Flame Wolf was still in a great state of discomfort and could not attack. While Bloody Hell Saber protected him, he held onto an item and did not dare attack readily.
That was because there was something that caused him to be wary—the Myth Realm elites in Gusu City.
The item in his hand was naturally able to kill Happy, but once he fired it and hurt the others, it will be difficult for him to leave the Chinese server.
Right now, he could only rely on Bloody Hell Saber to continue fighting off Happy's attacks and stall for time while he waited for the Myth Realm elites to appear.
But what he did not know was that Happy had already seen through his thoughts.
Once Happy was certain that Flame Wolf would not casually use a demon vessel with high damage, Happy made his decision to kill both in one go. After all, the only one who was using his full strength right now was just Bloody Hell Saber.
If Bloody Hell Saber fought against him while retaining his usual composure, Happy might have to spend a little more time and effort to win against him. Right now, the shadow of his former defeat loomed over him, and that was why he used a defensive fighting style. That was basically the same as him showing his safe to a thief.
Coincidentally, Happy had extraordinary knowledge when it came to breaking moves.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Four steps. Four slashes.
With each step, he sent a wave of hidden force forward. With each slash, he executed the full might of Great Demonic World Destruction Art. They went attacking four weak spots in Bloody Hell Saber's saber momentum.
Happy was able to release his attacks within a short period of time, but Bloody Hell Saber was not able to lock down all the attacks coming at him in an instant.
Two of the attacks were above and below Bloody Hell Saber. One of it was closest to him, and the last was the furthest all. All of these attacks were connected together!
A grunt rose.
Then, Happy knew that Bloody Hell Saber used his saber to block those four slashes, but in return, he was attacked by those four hidden forces.
His body was injured, and it was inevitable that his moves froze up, and his openings became even more obvious.
The black flames charged into the saber momentum with an indomitable spirit, and a few bloody gashes were left behind on Bloody Hell Saber's face.
Happy drew close.
At that moment, a savage look appeared on Bloody Hell Saber's face, as if his scheme had worked.
Boom!
An astonishing black flame gushed out of Flame Wolf's body while he remained behind Bloody Hell Saber.
The frenzied and hot black flames instantly increased the temperature in the area by a large degree.
Flame Wolf suddenly regained his mobility, and he looked smug. He spread his arms wide, and a restraining force bound Happy tightly.
An aura!
Happy was shocked.
"Die!"
Once the pressure on him was reduced, Bloody Hell Saber laughed loudly, and without another word, he swung his saber to cut Happy down! Their teamwork was so flawless that it looked as if they had practiced this millions of times before.
In an instant, the saber-generated wind arrived in front of Happy.
Chapter 973 - Danger
To a normal person, after being in a coma for one and a half years, they should no longer be
able to catch up with the era.
Happy was practically one of his kind to be able to immediately rise to fame after he reentered the game.
One of the reasons was because Happy's foundation in this world was incredibly good. He had already gained a comprehensive understanding of all sorts of martial arts, and he could execute his moves as easily as breathing. The other reason was because of his high scale development over the past one and a half years in the other world. He had come into contact with a lot of Myth Realm players, and he had already gained a lot of knowledge of the game. Naturally, he was able to move ahead of a lot of people!
However, the game in this world had already been in operation for five years, which meant that the high-end players over here had far surpassed the level of what Happy had come into contact with over the past one and a half years in the other world. This was something that Happy had not experienced just yet from normal players and normal elites, but when he faced high-end top-class elites as well as elites from Wild Wolves, Happy finally understood what was lacking about himself for the first time, and he discovered the danger brought by not being involved in the game in this world for one and a half years!
He had never heard of the move Flame Wolf used.
This was a move where he had his true qi surge forward madly in exchange for power. When it appeared, it caused Happy's mobility to be frozen for an instant.
Then, when this move was paired with Bloody Hell Saber, they instantly formed a situation guaranteeing certain death!
During that critical moment, Happy quickly made a guess. Flame Wolf used a lot of qi in exchange for the activation of an ultimate technique. It should be a powerful crowd control martial art similar to an aura. Hence, he immediately gave up on avoiding the attack, gritted his teeth, and withstood Bloody Hell Saber's slash.
Thud!
The saber moved like the setting sun. It sliced past Happy's c.h.e.s.t at lightning speed, and a distinct, bloody stream trailed after the saber.
As expected of Wild Wolves. Aside from possessing great mental fortitude, their fighting skills were greater than the normal person. The power contained in the saber glare was not strong, but it had hidden force f.o.r.c.i.b.l.y attached to it, delivering such a shock to Happy that his qi and blood tumbled, and he was thrown off the ground. He lost his balance.
"Kill him!"
Flame Wolf had a hand cover his neck while he glared at Happy being sent flying. He shouted loudly, and his c.h.e.s.t heaved. Clearly, he had to pay a huge price for the move he used just now.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to run."
In an instant, Bloody Hell Saber chased after Happy. He delivered three slashes back to back, and the shock caused Happy to be covered in blood. His body practically never touched the ground, and he ended up staggering dozens of feet backward.
At that moment, the silver cloth over Happy's c.h.e.s.t had several tears left on it, and a few terrifying wounds appeared on his c.h.e.s.t. There was blood at the corners of his mouth, and he looked incredibly pathetic.
When the fifth slash landed on Happy, Happy was already swaying. He grabbed his sword and moved hastily while he continuously parried Bloody Hell Saber's attacks as the man launched his offense. His footsteps were disorderly, and he looked as if he could not even regain his footing. He appeared like he would not be able to last in the next second and would die under Bloody Hell Saber's hands.
Bloody Hell Saber's expression was cold. He chased after Happy while he retreated and executed those fierce and aggressive saber glares nonstop. During that time, he spoke, and his cold words shot forward like bullets. "If you appeared together with Wind Chimes, perhaps we would be slightly wary of you, but you actually came here alone? What a joke!
"Just die!"
When he said this, his qi suddenly rose, and his saber released a layer of silver light that looked like a wave swallowing up the entire world.
"Waves of the Silver Sea!"
The silver light spread out even further and charged fiercely at Happy.
However, when Bloody Hell Saber was satisfied with forcing Happy to this state and was prepared to use his killing move to end this fight, his pupils suddenly narrowed, and he found in his disbelief that Happy, who was clearly swaying and looked as if he was about to keel over and die, suddenly stopped moving at the moment he executed his attack. The pathetic presence he gave off disappeared, and he lifted his sword before he thrust it into the silver sea.
The onlookers did not find it strange.
To them, Happy was long since at the last of his life, and he was just dragging his heavily injured body to fight against Bloody Hell Saber. It was just a matter of time before he lost and died.
The power in Bloody Hell Saber's sudden final attack was peerless, and even those watching from the distance could sense the pressure brought by how destructive it was. Happy fighting against it while cornered was just a show of his determination.
However, something unexpected happened.
A small spark rose from the thrust Happy delivered. Once it entered the wave that was like a galaxy, Bloody Hell Saber's momentum burst like a bubble and vanished without a trace.
Bang! Bang!
Happy, who looked like an ant trying to shake a tree with his attack, looked as if he was struck like lightning. He grunted and was thrown more than thirty feet back.
As for Bloody Hell Saber, this Wild Wolves had the upper hand since the beginning. However, once his saber glare was destroyed, he stared at Happy for a few seconds, unable to believe his own eyes. Right before him, Happy regained his footing once more while he panted for breath. He did not die, but a hint of disappointment and a refusal to admit defeat shone in his eyes.
"I actually didn't manage to kill you even with all that?" Bloody Hell Saber said.
It was only at that moment that the people watching from afar noticed a barely noticeable red line at Bloody Hell Saber's neck.
Once he finished speaking, the red line quickly became clear, and blood gushed out from his neck.
Then, right under countless people's shocked gazes, blood sprayed out of Bloody Hell Saber's neck in front of Happy. His corpse crashed against the ground, right between where Happy and Flame Wolf stood.
Silence.
Including Flame Wolf, no one expected that the fight would end up like this!
Quite a number of players were puzzled. Their gazes moved back and forth between the corpse and Happy, who gasped for breath in a pathetic state. They gulped laboriously.
"Just what happened?"
"How did he die?"
Even though Happy was alive and the death of that Wild Wolf caused many people to feel gratified, including Whirlwind Young Li, no one knew just what Happy did when Bloody Hell Saber unleashed his killing move.
How did Happy stay alive?
He managed to stay alive under that terrifying offense and even killed a top-class player with just one sword thrust.
Flame Wolf's pupils shrank as well while he stared at Happy in disbelief.
"Just what did you do?"
While he faced Flame Wolf's questioning, Happy, who was injured and hurting all over, s.u.c.k.e.d in several breaths for a few seconds before he grinned. "What did I do? Why don't you ask what your companion did? Enough with the nonsense. Right now, you're the only person left in your group. You should go to Guanlin Temple to meet them."
The power in an Inaction Realm saber technique was not just for show.
Even though the defense for his Indestructible Body—which he had not mastered yet—was pretty good, it still broke at the fourth slash. If it had not been because of the defense brought by the periosteum from Tendon Changing Classic, which allowed him to negate certain damage from hidden forces, he might have already been killed by the shock delivered by Bloody Hell Saber's fifth slash.
No one knew that just now, when the situation was the most dire for him, Happy finally understood the profound secret behind Tendon Changing Classic.
&nb
sp; The more severely hurt he was, the more Tendon Changing Classic could bring out its great self-recovery abilities.
When an injury appeared on him, his meridian system would automatically shut up to quickly stop the blood flow.
When hidden force entered his body, his periosteum would instantly become slightly stronger to weaken the damage from the hidden force, allowing him to immediately recover.
Bloody Hell Saber's offense might have caused him to be caught in an incredibly pathetic state, but in just one breath, Tendon Changing Classic allowed him to recover from a certain degree of injuries.
Naturally, it was impossible for Happy to do nothing during the offense.
While hidden force could be used to injure people, it could also be used to protect the user!
As long as he gathered his true qi at the parts enduring the damage, his defense in that part will increase greatly. Hence, Bloody Hell Saber's offense basically had a hard time creating any substantial damage later on.
He had not chosen to launch any counterattacks whatsoever because Happy wanted to widen the distance between them and Flame Wolf.
He was worried that Flame Wolf could use the move from before one more time. Then, even if he had something as game-breaking as Tendon Changing Classic, he would definitely not be able to withstand Bloody Hell Saber's mad barrage again.
Flame Wolf did not chase after them, and the thought of counterattacking rose in Happy's mind.
But he did not expect that Bloody Hell Saber would choose to use his killing move to fight against Happy at that moment.
This sort of killing move created a bombastic effect, and it contained an illusory effect. To a certain degree, it could give the enemies the misconception that they could not fight against the attack with brute strength. Unfortunately, Bloody Hell Saber did not know that Happy's ability to determine locations based on sound and the spiritual senses given to him by Tendon Changing Classic allowed him to not be affected by illusions.
When the final move arrived at the peak of its strength, Bloody Hell Saber would also be at his weakest.
He seized the chance and killed him with one blow.
