  Happy did not miss the little tricks of Dragon Tiger Sect people in the forest.

  As a veteran player who had played World of Martial Arts for more than three years, he had seen all sorts of ambushes. There were all sorts of methods that were impossible to fend against, but the amateurs down the mountain would not be able to emulate them.

  Besides, those people had only extinguished their torches when they were very close to them, which had even alerted some of the Black Wind Mountain Bandits who were nearby. It actually would have been difficult for Happy to not notice them.

  His gaze darkened, and he thought to himself that it was a pity.

  If the people from Dragon Tiger Sect had appeared a little later, he might have been able to push Flowering Knights Saber Technique to the eleventh realm, which was the peak. In fact, he might have even been able to practice another martial art.

  Now that Dragon Tiger Sect had been alerted, they would not easily let go of this chance to rob them.

  If they attacked halfway through the fight, things would be bad!

  ‘I have to finish this fight as soon as possible!’

  Happy’s eyes focused. He no longer cared about the rules in the world of martial artists and just swung his saber. His left hand moved incredibly quickly, and he brought out a paper bag he had prepared beforehand from his Universe Bag. He tossed it high up into the air.

  The bandit chief seemed to have realized something and looked up, instinctively swinging his sword.

  The paper bag was torn, and the white lime powder hidden inside fell straight on the bandit chief.

  “Damn it!”

  It was only then that the bandit chief noticed that Happy had just done something that was considered as a dirty trick in the world of martial arts. He roared and quickly moved back. But that just created a strong wind, and the lime powder danced around even more violently in the air.

  The situation became complicated!

  The group that was about to take action in the dark quickly went back to temporarily be on standby on orders from Long Meng. They watched the white lime powder flying in the battleground with puzzlement on their faces. They had already lost sight of the bandit chief and Happy’s figures.

  Whoosh! Whoosh……

  The sound of air being cut rose frequently in the dark and quiet forest.

  The bandit chief grunted, and light flashed repeatedly. A black figure staggered out of the lime powder fog. It cradled its rapidly bleeding arm while brandishing its sword with one arm.

  Clang! Clang!

  Sparks flew from the silver sword. Once two clear clashes were heard, two lancet knives shot into the forest. They hit the tree trunks of two trees not far away from the Dragon Tiger Sect members with dull but powerful thuds.

  \r \r \r

  When they saw the two throwing knives that sank into the trunks very close to them, Long Meng and his group broke into cold sweat.

  They turned their heads around and saw Black Wind Mountain’s bandit chief being hit by a throwing knife once more. They lost their will to fight and turned around to flee.

  “Leaving so soon?”

  The bandit chief’s thigh was injured, and his lightness skill was greatly affected, so Happy was calm. He followed closely behind him, and his arms turned like wheels to repeatedly throw lancet knives.

  The bandit chief’s back was struck. The damage from the lancet knife destroyed the bandit chief’s true qi, which he had only mustered after considerable effect. In alarm, he bit the tip of his tongue and let out a hysterical shout that resembled a wild beast’s roar!

  “Roar!”

  At that moment, an extremely great sense of danger surged in Happy’s heart.

  He stopped swiftly.

  Then, the bandit chief turned around at an astonishing speed. The silver sword in his hands had been covered in a thick layer of black light at some point in time, and it brought with it a supremely fierce and domineery dragon’s roar. His sword left his hand, and under the firelight, it looked like a thin black dragon. With a sharp, murderous aura, it instantly charged at Happy’s chest.

  It was so fast that it was impossible to dodge!

  A secret technique!

  “Eldest senior brother!”

  Even at the moment he was struck, Happy still did not manage to register what had happened. Only when sharp pain spread through his chest and back, he was reminded of what happened. Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate’s surprised cries also reached his ears.

  “Don’t come here!”

  He was pinned on a tree thirty-two feet away from where he’d fought by Black Dragon Murder, but Happy did not show any hints of fear. Instead, he stopped his two companions from approaching. With eyes wide, he stared at the bandit chief, and surprise as well as happiness appeared on his face.

  ‘A secret technique…… Black Wind Mountain’s chief bandit actually has a secret technique!

  ‘He’s a supreme grade bandit king!’

  In his previous life, Happy had destroyed many bandit strongholds, but he had never run into a supreme grade bandit king before, and that had always been a regret of his. Legends had it that all the bandit chiefs who had mastered a secret technique would definitely have a manual of that secret technique kept as a treasure in their Universe Bag!

  Secret techniques were absolute one-hit kill skills. They could instantly mobilize all the potential in the user’s body and allow them to bring out fighting power that was several times greater than what they originally had. It could determine the results of a battle and was an ultimate technique that could protect its user’s life.

  When Happy thought about how the chief bandit, who was swaying on his feet and at death’s door, had the manual for a secret technique that countless players lusted for in his Universe Bag, Happy felt his chest burn with passion.

  Boom!

  A weak aura quietly appeared around Happy’s body.

  When his Flowering Knights Saber Technique reached the tenth realm, Happy had received a notification from the system that he had officially entered the first qi realm—Gate Realm.

  When he was struck by Black Dragon Murder, his HP began to drain quickly. If he did not do something to protect his life, not only would his previous efforts go down the drain, his spoils of war might even be taken away by the people hidden in the forest.

  Happy could not be bothered by the pain of the longsword penetrating his body. He swiftly brought out a jade green medicinal pill with a thick medicinal scent from his Universe Bag and stuffed it into his mouth. It was the Small Reversion Pill he had received from the governor.

  The medicinal pill melted the moment it entered his mouth, and a powerful life force instantly surged into his weakened body.

  “Aaaaahhh!”

  He pulled out the silver sword from his chest in an incredibly savage manner. Blood gushed out everywhere, creating a terrifying scene that shocked all the people in the area, and that included the chief bandit, whose strength had been drained because he had executed his secret technique!

  When they saw how calm and relaxed Blue-robed Noble Sword User was when he pulled out the sword, the expression of some of the players who had a very deep understanding of how painful it was being injured in the game changed. Their bodies trembled a little, and they found themselves speechless.

  “Vice…… Vice sect master……”

  Some people hesitated. They whispered fearfully, sounding like they wanted to back out.

  “Shut up!” Long Meng’s breathing quickened. With a fierce expression, he rebuked them with a hiss. “He’s almost a dead man! Why are you afraid?!” In truth, he had already begun to regret his decision a little……

  If a person could be so brutal to himself and willing to endure such agony, just how terrifying would he be when taking revenge? Long Meng did not dare imagine it!

  “Attack!”

  When he saw that Happy stopped for a moment after he pulled out the silver sword before going to the bandit chief, who was now dead because of his injuries, Long Meng no longer hesitated and ordered his brothers to attack. If they delayed it any longer and Happy took away the goods, it would be very difficult for them to get all the spoils of war from him.

  “Make sure that none of them survive!”

  When Long Meng gave his order in an awe-inspiring manner and murderous intent burning in him, the people behind him lit up with courage as well. They lifted their weapons and rushed out of the forest together.

  “Who is it?!”

  It was only then that Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate noticed that there were people in the forest. When they turned their heads around, they saw a group of players rush out of the forest with murderous intent. The duo immediately knew that the situation was bad for them, and they quickly drew out their weapons.

  But before they could attack, two throwing knives sliced through the air with a whistle and pinned the two players who led the charge to the ground.

  The lancet knives were stuck accurately in their faces, and they were a terrifying sight to behold!

  “Hold them back!”

  Happy swiftly charged at the bandit chief’s corpse. While shouting his order, he didn’t stopped attacking.

  His lancet knives flew as if they had eyes!

  The players who rushed out of the forest had not even reached Gate Realm. This was the first time they faced hidden weapons, and it was a technique at Grandmaster Realm to boot. Hence, their performance was worse than that of the Black Wind Mountain Bandits.

  The had just rushed out of the forest when six of them died. The ones behind them had horror written all over their faces. They could neither retreat nor advance, and they were thrown into chaos.

  Happy did not stop attacking!

  He threw his lancet knives in a frenzy, starting a personal killing spree. After all, murder was murder regardless of how many people he killed. His lancet knives instantly became perfect murder weapons…… and he drew the curtains for the prologue of Black Wind Mountain Murder.
