Chapter 1065: Encircled by Four Myth Realm Martial Artists

The imperial court martial artists were late.

The first to show up was an Embroidered Uniform Guard martial artist, Vermillion Bird. He had a fair face, and he was handsome, as well as young. When he showed up on the roof, he cast a glance at One Emperor, who released a sword will that surged into the sky while he stood not too far in the distance. He flicked his wrist, and a freezing light shot out from him to shatter the glazed tiles on the eaves and the roof where he stood. Then, like an arrow fired from a bow, he silently shot to Happy, who stood in the ground.

When he was sixty-five feet away from Happy, the powerful presence belonging to Myth Realm martial artists gushed out of his body in a domineering manner.

Whoosh!

Vermillion Bird had a cold presence about him, and his sword technique was also profound and amazing. His sword flashed, and seven sword sparks arrived in front of Happy.

The Class One Hall members around Happy all put on delighted expressions, thinking that they were fortunate enough to have escaped from dying.

“They’re finally here!”

“Darn it! I nearly thought that I was going to die here!’

The group of people who were the closest to Happy shot back. They did not want to stay close to Happy for even one second longer, but that was to be expected.

In less than three minutes, Happy had killed nearly three thousand Class One Hall members. The ruins of Wind Assault Tower’s former headquarters were now filled with Class One Hall members’ blood and corpses.

But now, the Myth Realm martial artist had arrived, and they knew that they had already completed their mission! If they continued staying here, it would mean that they were just going to die in vain.

However, they did not expect that when the seven sword sparks flew over and scattered around Happy, they only crushed a few afterimages.

‘The people from the imperial court are here! It’s about time that I enter the second phase.’ When he avoided the first wave of attacks, Happy moved without stopping and shot dozens of feet away from where he originally was.

This time, Happy did not take the initiative to chase after the people from Class One Hall.

He moved in a flash repeatedly, and in the blink of an eye, he traveled another dozens of feet away to head into the depths of the ruins.

The Class One Hall members were already terrified of the sound of wind since a long time ago, because that meant Happy was near. When they heard the sound of air being pushed away behind them, they shuddered and thought that they were about to die.

But they did not expect that the sound of sleeves fluttering just brushed past them. Happy did not stop for even a moment. He just landed briefly on the ground before he left.

The group were initially delighted. Then, they widened their eyes and started shouting.

“He’s going to escape!”

“Darn it! Those in front, stop him!”

Class One Hall originally had their morale destroyed after the slaughter Happy rained on them, but when they saw Happy running into the depths of the ruins like the wind, they became restless again.

A strange urge and power controlled them, and a group of people actually stopped running. They turned around…

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

…And carefully threw out some handfuls of hidden weapons.

But when he faced these items that would not even break his defense, Happy was completely unbothered. He activated his true origin aura, and those countless hidden weapons swiftly lost their momentum when they arrived in front of Happy. They landed on the ground behind him like wilted flowers.

“What the heck?!”

“You bunch of cowards!”

“Stop him! If he breaks out of the encirclement and runs, Class One Hall will be utterly humiliated!”

“Don’t let our members lose their lives in vain!”

The Class One Hall members were incredibly excited, and more than one thousand people shouted in anger.

A large group of people turned their heads around to chase after Happy once more, and while they chased after him, they shouted at the others to urge them to chase after him. Because of it, the group of Class One Hall members who had lost their courage because of the genocide Happy brought on them gritted their teeth and put away their hidden weapons to pounce on Happy regardless of the cost.

Indeed, if they chose to retreat, then with the speed in Happy’s lightness skill, even if he did not manage to shake off the imperial court martial art, he could still his extraordinary defense to break out of their encirclement to leave the city and flee into the distance. At that time, the thousands of lives they sacrificed in exchange for luring out the imperial court martial artists to capture Happy would be worthless.

At that moment, the group no longer cared about their lives and deaths.

*****

Happy just kept coolly observing how the group of Class One Hall members moved in front of him. As he listened to the angry shouts and rebukes that continuously shot up from behind him, he just continued quietly keeping a low profile by not killing anyone.

“Damn it!”

“Stop it!”

The group of Class One Hall members chased after him again.

There were not many of them, but when two hundred people gathered together, they still created a rather grand spectacle. They looked as if they were a dense group of people gathered together.

However, to Happy, this number of people was not enough.

He used his spiritual senses to scan the area.

When he noticed that there was a group of aces who stayed at the back of the group and did not intend to attack him head on because they wanted to keep a low profile, his lips curled up in a barely noticeable fashion, and he suddenly sped up as well as switched directions.

“He doesn’t dare fight anymore!”

“He’s running to the left! Stop him!”

When they saw that Happy did not even have the courage to stop and fight, Class One Hall became even more aggressive. More people were encouraged, and they shouted in alarm while they quickened their speed in surrounding Happy.

Vermillion Bird still trailed behind Happy closely. However, whenever he attacked, Happy would use Wave-like Subtle Steps and Petite Dragon to dodge those attacks.

The ruins of Wind Assault Tower’s former headquarters became lively once more.

However, the shouts of alarm behind him gradually died away. Many people were watching from the roofs, and when they saw Happy’s bizarre positioning, they found that he seemed to be intentionally falling into a trap. They also observed the positions the Class One Hall members took, and they quickly realized certain things, which was why they decided to keep quiet and just watch.

“Class One Hall is a little blinded by the situation because they’re too involved in it. They might not be able to escape from this disaster…” Wu Kuo stood at the edge of the roof. He watched the people from Class One Hall being lured by the false signal Happy sent, leading to them forming a huge dragon behind him once more. His expression became one of excitement, just like the ones his friends behind him had on their faces.

“Should we send a messenger pigeon to Wandering Know-it-all now and have him get prepared to call Wind Chimes to log in?” Someone suggested.

Wu Kuo instantly snapped out of his excitement and remembered that his main goal in coming here this time was to bring Wind Chimes away from this dangerous place as well as escort her back to Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion. His eyes lit up, and he cast a questioning look at One Emperor.

“It’s not time yet.” While One Emperor answered, he cast his gaze at the street not too far away from the left. There was a slight furrow between his eyebrows.

Wu Kuo was astonished, and he looked in the direction of One Emperor’s gaze. He then noticed an old man dressed in linen and had an opium pipe in his hands. That old man stood on the roof while he stared at the fight below. There was a not very conspicuous plate hanging by his waist.

When he saw this person, Wu Kuo was instantly unable to hold back from sucking in a sharp breath.

‘Another Myth Realm martial artist! And he’s a Golden Saber Constable from Six Doors!’

He now understood what One Emperor meant when he said that it was not the time yet.

Happy could indeed move around freely and continue killing enemies while he faced one Myth Realm martial artist, but what about two Myth Realm martial artists?

Happy’s situation instantly turned very dangerous.

*****

The remaining one thousand or so Class One Hall members quickly gathered together.

Happy was originally going to search for a suitable time and chance to attack when he suddenly felt a cold chill land on his body. His spiritual sense instinctively locked on the Golden Saber Constable from Six Doors.

He could no longer delay his plan!

Even though Happy could detect that the person who arrived was just a normal martial artist at the middle stage of Myth Realm, if he continued delaying his plan, the third and fourth Myth Realm martial artist might show up, and the situation would take a turn for the worst for him. He had to attack immediately.

He attacked again with Recondite Steel Heavy Sword, and he also activated Wave-like Subtle Steps!

He used his true origin aura to support, and Happy treated Vermillion Bird’s attacks as nothing. He just crashed violently into the Class One Hall crowd.

The bloody scene from before showed up once more.

He killed all along the way of his charge, and in a flash, he killed more than one hundred Class One Hall members.

The Class One Hall members were once again terrified by Happy’s fierce performance.

But today was clearly not their lucky day.

Right when they felt a chill down their spines, they suddenly heard an enraged shout filled with a righteous and awe-inspiring tone from the distance.

“Fiend!”

The angry bark from a Myth Realm martial artist descended from the sky, and it was filled with powerful qi, causing his voice to rumble like thunder. It entered the ears of all the people within a circular area of several miles.

When the Golden Saber Constable from Six Doors saw Happy using an underhanded trick again to kill in Beijing, he was finally unable to hold himself back. He shouted in anger and jumped down from the roof, bringing with him the pungent smell of smoke while he charged into the crowd.

The appearance of the second Myth Realm martial artist undoubtedly brought endless confidence and morale to the people from Class One Hall.

“Haha! A Golden Saber Constable came!”

“Brothers and sisters, kill him!”

“Let’s see how he can escape from this disaster!”

The group became excited, as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

However, when the two Myth Realm martial artists showed up, at least two hundred people were killed by Happy’s Recondite Steel Heavy Sword.

The Golden Saber Constable from Six Doors quickly closed the distance between him and Happy, and he flanked Happy with Vermillion Bird from the front and back. His opium pipe shone with sparks that could set a prairie ablaze, and those sparks descended from the sky.

Vermillion Bird’s sword shadows also came rushing forward like a flood.

Even One Emperor could not help but break out in cold sweat for Happy when he saw two Myth Realm martial artists working together to fight against him.

“Golden Arhat!”

When the attacks from these two people were about to touch him, Happy did not something that no one expected him to do at that moment.

He cancelled his Indestructible Body and true origin aura before he activated Arhat Body, which he obtained some time ago in this world, and a golden metallic shine instantly covered his entire body.

“Another profound technique?”

One Emperor, Wu Kuo, his group, and the Class One Hall aces hidden in the dark quickly understood that Happy was about to use a profound technique from his body fortification and get through this difficult spot using the smallest price he could pay.

After all, while Arhat Body, which was a Life and Death Realm Body Fortification Technique, was not the main body fortification technique used by the best players in the game, the people would still often use its profound technique, because it provided quite a decent defensive effect during certain times. In fact, it could even help them turn the tides.

During the few seconds Golden Arhat was activated, it could largely reduce the damage a player had to endure, and with Happy’s defense, he could practically unharmed in front of the Myth Realm martial artists’ attacks.

However, Happy used the powerful aftereffects in the two Myth Realm martial artists’ attacks to charge into the area with the densest number of Class One Hall members like a cannonball.

Whoosh!

Full Winds in Long Skies!

Those Class One Hall members could not react at all. Happy had seemed as if he had been sent flying pathetically, but now, he had just thrown a lot of them off their feet with a horizontal swing of his sword. A terrifying power exploded forth, and for a period of time, there was panic and alarm everywhere.

Unfortunately for the aces who had been hiding at the back of the group, this time, they did not manage to escape by sheer luck. The impact from the three-layered attacks that instantly exploded from Full Winds in Long Skies delivered such a shock to their bodies that they coughed up blood and died on the spot. They did not even know how they died, and their souls just drifted away to Guanlin Temple.

The power in Full Winds in Long Skies was incredibly domineering.

Even the Golden Saber Constable and Vermillion Bird, who dashed over quickly, were blown back by the force. They looked at each other, and they saw a hint of shock in each other’s eyes.

Once they stopped, another ten or so people died in Happy’s hands!

This scene caused the remaining Class One Hall members to have their hearts completely crushed.

Even when two Myth Realm martial artists worked together, they could not threaten Happy. Instead, they were intimidated by Happy, and he used the momentum to kill hundreds of people in succession.

There had originally been around one thousand Class One Hall members left at Wind Assault Tower’s former headquarters, but now, there were fewer than five hundred of them left! As Happy chased after them, they did not dare to turn their heads around. They just fled for their lives like birds and wild animals fleeing in every direction when they noticed a predator.

*****

Happy quickly came to a halt when he arrived near the entrance of the street. He quirked his eyebrows, and he looked up to have his eyes fixed on a fair, middle-aged man who was dressed in the style of an imperial archieunuch. He stood on the roof of the building to Happy’s left, and there was a handsome middle-aged man beside him.

The archieunuch swept him a glance from above before he released a cold snort that caused everyone’s hearts to tremble.

“Vermillion Bird, Elder Smoke, your skills with your martial arts have largely declined… How could you not take down a nameless nobody in the world of martial artists immediately. Truly, you disappoint me.”

The people from Western Depot and Eastern Depot had arrived!
