  “What?!” The sect master of Dragon Tiger Sect had received his sect members’ message through the messenger pigeon while he was at Black Wind Mountain. He was so angry that he squashed the paper into a ball right on the spot. “They’re just one measly Heaven Domination Sect. How dare they touch our people!”

  He made his decision on the spot and gave his order in anger. “All of you are involved! Come down with me! We’re going to kill them!

  “Long Meng!”

  When he heard his sect master call to him, Long Meng, who was now a vice sect master again, quickly went to stand before Inquire the Dragon to receive his orders.

  “Mobilize our men immediately! We’ll gather at the foot of Cold Mountain Temple!” Even though he was angry, Inquire the Dragon was not so agitated that he would immediately have his men head into the depths of Cold Mountain Temple.

  “Understood!”

  Long Meng’s eyes lit up, and he shouted loudly to voice his obedience. He knew that the time for Dragon Tiger Sect to rebuild their prestige had come!

  He picked a group of people without hesitation and had them write rows upon rows of letters that contained the simplified order of their sect master. The messenger pigeons’ wings fluttered, and they flew into the sky to spread through the area around Black Wind Mountain.

  In moments, the Dragon Tiger Sect members scattered all around Gusu City received the messages from their fellow sect brothers. They immediately stopped whatever task they had at hand. Those who needed to return to the city went back, and those who could go out of the city straightaway went out. For a period of time, they moved like rolling waves. Endless Dragon Tiger Sect members appeared at the city gate. Many people had already figured out that something had happened and were secretly apprehensive.

  The other sects in Gusu City sent news of this to their other sect members.

  Soon, many people came to learn that Dragon Tiger Sect was about to engage in a fight to the death with Heaven Domination Sect.

  “When two tigers fight, there is a high possibility that both will be injured greatly. Ignore them.”

  The other sect masters knew that this was their greatest chance for development. The two greatest sects in Gusu City were about to fight. Regardless of who would die, both would inevitably be injured. At that time, when the foundations of both sects were shaken, it would be the time for the other sects to show their might.

  Of course, there were quite a number of people who just wanted to watch the show.

  The flow of people at the foot of Cold Mountain Temple increased swiftly!

  *****

  A devastating battle had already begun in the depths of the forest.

  “AH—”

  “Surround him!”

  \r \r \r

  “You idiot! Don’t let him escape!”

  The roars of Heaven Domination Sect members rose and fell. Dozens of white-robed people formed a huge encirclement in the forest. They surrounded Happy and his group, but an agile figure jumped high in the air before it fell. Cold glares appeared and sliced through the dark forest. Whenever they appeared, they took away one or two white-robed people without a sound.

  In less than half a minute, there were already fourteen players lying either dead or heavily injured. All of them had been struck by throwing knives.

  Whirlwind Young Li, Eastern Green Gate, and Azure Wolf had their backs against a huge tree while withstanding the attacks from seven players who were at the outermost layer of the encirclement. They had quite a lot of wounds on their bodies, but they continued to defend themselves and held on tenaciously. For the time being, their lives were not in danger.

  “Attack!”

  “Attack!”

  When he saw that the number of corpses on the ground was increasing by the moment, Leader Lin was so angry that his face turned red. They had not even managed to touch Happy’s sleeve, and around ten of his sect members had already died. How was he supposed to provide an explanation for this later?

  But there was still a simple logic that he understood!

  Happy had to fight frequently, and he had to use lancet knives as well, along with using lightness skills. It would be impossible for him to last for a long time with just the qi in Gate Realm. Since things had already progressed to this point, they could only grit their teeth and continue. They had to make Happy run out of qi, and at that time, they would kill him once and for all!

  However, if Leader Lin had seen one tiny detail, which revealed what Happy had done before he used his lightness skill, he would not have made his decision so easily.

  As a veteran, Happy knew his own limitations. Hence, every single time he attacked, he would immediately eat a medicinal tablet to replenish some of his qi. Like that, he would recover slowly.

  As his qi replenished bit by bit, even after Happy threw dozens of lancet knives, he did not show any signs of fatigue. Instead, because of his familiarity with this method, he became increasingly refreshed. The speed at which he attacked became faster, and he became more capable of manipulating the angle of his attacks. He gave off the air of being at ease.

  Even though quite a number of Heaven Domination Sect members had practiced lightness skills, it was clear that no one among them had the patience to practice their qi cultivation technique and lightness skill together for a few consecutive days. Even their best could not keep up with Happy’s rhythm and footwork.

  During the beginning of the battle, quite a number of people did not notice this, but as more of their fellow sect brothers died, some of them could not help but be afraid. When they chased after Happy, they felt like they had turned into loyal moving targets whose sole purpose was to provide entertainment for him.

  When they looked at the trail of corpses left behind here and there, they found that there were around thirty of them already!

  “How are we supposed to fight against him like this?”

  The people’s expression instantly turned incredibly sour, and the idea of retreating rose in their hearts.

  Happy stopped in a timely manner. He swept his gaze over the dozens of people behind him, and his lips curled up slightly to reveal a barely noticeable smile.

  He patted his waist, and two cold glares appeared swiftly.

  “Urk!”

  The two Heaven Domination Sect members who were in the middle of the group grunted and cried out in pain before they flew out from their group. They crashed into the path of corpses behind them.

  The group of people instantly felt chills down their spine!

  “Hide!”

  No one knew who had shouted, but the group of people acted like frightened birds. They ran into the forest in different directions at the same time.

  Happy did not have the desire to chase after them. He swept his gaze over the corpses on the ground before he suddenly scowled. He jumped up, tapped gently against a branch high in the air, then jumped another dozens of feet into the air before he charged toward the small battlefield that was still in a fierce melee.

  Both Eastern Green Gate and Whirlwind Young Li were already in Gate Realm, and each of them had a martial art in Grandmaster Realm. While it was rather difficult for them to fight against two people alone, they could still defend themselves.

  But Azure Wolf was in a more miserable state. He was still currently working in a shop, and he only practiced the martial arts he bought from the sundry shop. His greatest sword technique had just reached the tenth realm. He already had no fewer than twenty wounds, which left him heavily wounded. He looked incredibly pathetic.

  Yet even so, Azure Wolf gritted his teeth and persevered. He fought against the two people in front of him and did not let Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate face even more threats.

  The people in Heaven Domination Sect were incredibly frustrated.

  They had seven players in Gate Realm attacking the trio, but even though they had fought for such a long time, they still could not kill three nameless players?

  “Kill the one on the left first!”

  No one knew whether it was because he had lost contact with the others for too long, but Leader Lin, who had stood by the side and not done anything since the start, frowned and became slightly uneasy. He moved to this side and gave an order. The person he pointed at was Azure Wolf, who was in great trouble.

  As one of the eight leaders of Heaven Domination Sect, Leader Lin had some extraordinary skills. Right when he appeared, he executed a Sword Throwing Style. When Azure Wolf had just executed an attack and had no way of defending himself, he destroyed Azure Wolf’s defence with one move. He pierced Azure Wolf’s shoulder and pinned him ruthlessly against the tree trunk behind him. His blood flowed, and it became very difficult for him to move.

  Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate’s expressions changed drastically!

  “Azure Wolf!”

  They changed their attacks, and at the risk of their themselves, they forced away the outermost people surrounding them and flanked Azure Wolf to protect him.

  “Go! Don’t bother about me!”

  “As if!”

  “Young Whirlwind, Eastern Gate, go! Remember to tell Senior Brother Happy to take revenge for me!” Azure Wolf’s face was full of determination. He used his hand to push Young Li away while he roared, “And don’t forget to kill that one with the long beard to the left! Damn him! He stabbed me fourteen times! I’m going to remember you forever! Also, kill that crafty guy with the slanting eyes!”

  But Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate did not move. Azure Wolf had fought together with them, so how could they abandon their brother now?

  The white-robed man with the beard was stunned speechless when he heard Azure Wolf’s words. An awkward look appeared on his face, and he touched his chin. ‘Long beard? My beard isn’t that long.’

  While the group could not decide whether they should kill them, Leader Lin’s cold voice reached their ears.

  “Why are you still standing around daydreaming?! Kill them! Don’t let a single one of them—!”

  But before he could finish the words that decided the fate of the trio……

  “You sure have guts! I’d like to see who would dare touch my brothers!” A clear voice made the white-robed men freeze before they could take their next move as if it had magic in it!

  The sound of sleeves fluttering in the forest swiftly approached them, and an enraged blue-robed teenager landed gracefully in front of Leader Lin.

  When they saw Happy arrive in time, the trio’s tense expressions vanished, and crazed happiness bloomed on their faces.
