Sword Among Us - Chapter 1209: Identity Exposed
The Wild Wolves reacted really quickly. With what happened before to serve as a guidance, they would naturally not underestimate Happy's speed anymore. After they executed the first palm strike, they immediately attacked again, making sure that the second strike landed on Happy. Then, they activated the matrix again so that it could absorb the damage from Happy's attack.
But Wild Fights in All Directions was one of the four ultimate techniques from the ancient divine monk. It was different from Full Winds in Long Skies, which allowed him to instantly deliver an attack with shocking damage. Wild Fights in All Directions was an ultimate technique that was useful for area attacks and for throwing off his enemies.
With one attack, he could make space shake and tremble!
All the enemies in the area were attacked, and because of it, the Forbidden Daiya Technique's effect of having everyone share damage became useless. When all nine people shared the damage that they suffered at the same time, they would still end up suffering the same amount of damage as if the attack was solely focused on them. They still could not prevent themselves from breaking out of formation and being thrown off.
With their matrix thrown into chaos, the group knew that they were in trouble.
Just as they expected, Happy did not give them the chance to fight back and resist. He seized the moment and delivered a slash.
Whoosh!
Full Winds in Long Skies!
In their shock, the group executed their body fortifications in the sky.
Unfortunately, their matrix had already fallen apart. If even one person was missing, they would not be able to pull off the Forbidden Daiya Technique. They could only watch as the slash that cut through the air easily cut into the true qi that formed their body fortifications.
The nine people coughed up blood at the same time in the air. With ashen faces, they fell onto the sand.
Chief Wolf and his group charged over from Flame Town, and from the distance, they saw that the group was split into two. One of them had fewer people than the rest, and right now, there was only one person running over in a flurry while a bloody red figure that resembled a demon chased after him.
As for the group with more people…
Chief Wolf redirected his gaze, and he was just in time to see a dazzling light light up at the horizon.Then, he saw a group of familiar people being sent flying before they fell on the sand, and they did not manage to get up even after a long time had passed.
There were more than thirty corpses scattered all over the sand on the slope of the sandhill.
"!!!"
Chief Wolf's eyes instantly turned red with rage.
"Attack!"
At that moment, he still did not know what sort of enemies Peach Blossom and her group ran into, but based on the skills the other person displayed when he destroyed the Forbidden Daiya Technique with just one hit, he was not to be underestimated.
"Big Brother Wolf, the leader sent a letter!" Just as Chief Wolf had his blood rush to his head in anger and was prepared to chase after his enemy, a member of his group called to him behind him and stopped him.
'The leader?!'
When he thought about Carlson and how he could see what was happening here live, Chief Wolf's expression changed a little, and he did not dare to be negligent. "What is it?"
"The leader said that the person might be a mysterious fighter in the dao of heaven, and he is not to be underestimated. We will need nine groups to collaborate together before we can win against him. The leader asked you to not focus on attacking him. He wants you to immediately lure Flame Wolf and Tiger Soul to Flame Town, then work with the others to set up the formation!"
Right after he finished speaking, Chief Wolf turned around without another word. "Let's go!"
Rumble…
The group swiftly turned to the person who was currently being chased down by Flame Wolf.
They had just charged forward for less than 162 feet when another messenger pigeon suddenly flew down from the sky. Chief Wolf quickly grabbed it.
It was a letter from Peach Blossom.
Chief Wolf's expression changed. He was not slow in opening it.
He took out the letter and read it.
"Happy?! It's Happy?!" Chief Wolf's expression changed drastically, and he cast a glance at the white figure in the distance with a vicious and wary gaze. He shouted loudly, "Everyone, careful! That white-clad swordsman is the sect master of Lovely Land, our mortal enemy!"
Right after he finished speaking, the group burst into a ruckus.
"What?!"
"It's him?!"
"I knew a long time ago that it's impossible for him to not have any thoughts about the desert palace. I didn't think that he was the first among the players to enter it!"
"Let's go!"
"Even the Forbidden Daiya Technique can't take him down! Peach Blossom has mentioned that we need nine groups to get rid of him. Everyone must be around. If there is a need for it, we have to give up on Tiger Soul. Gather all the people and form nine groups to get rid of Happy!"
With that order, the Wild Wolves fled even faster.
Happy only relaxed after he got rid of nine Wild Wolves in a go.
Even if he was absolutely confident in his own strength, once both sides gathered together, he would still run into quite a lot of trouble. Hence, when the group from Flame Town showed up, Happy decided to kill them all in one swoop. He used the Dragon Swings Its Tail, Wild Fights in All Directions, and Full Winds in Long Skies, and with his three fiercest and greatest moves executed together in one smooth sequence, he got rid of one group from Wild Wolves.
Happy redirected his gaze to look at Flame Wolf, who had Tiger Soul in his hands in the distance.
Rumble…
The subtle change in the sounds of horses galloping soon caught Happy's attention.
Happy quickly noticed that the group from Flame Town had suddenly changed directions to rush to Flame Wolf. He frowned slightly and knew that his identity must have been exposed.
So he did not slow down in his work. He tapped against the ground, leaving behind a trail of white afterimages in the desert. They were like smoke trailing behind him as he drifted to Flame Wolf.
Since Tiger Soul had already reappeared in front of him and was in the hands of the Wild Wolves, Happy currently only had one thought in mind.
'Evil Emperor, I will absolutely not allow Tiger Soul to fall into your hands!'
He would kill to seize the saber, and all the Wild Wolves who entered his line of sight must die!
With monstrous killing intent, Happy traveled at full speed in the desert to race against the Wild Wolves. At his fastest speed, he chased after Flame Wolf…
Due to the Wild Wolves luring it, Tiger Soul started heading toward Flame Town, and since the Wild Wolves nor Flame Wolf were slow, in the end, the Wild Wolves were the ones who were the first to come into contact with Flame Wolf.
However, coming into contact first with Tiger Soul was not a good thing.
Right now, Flame Wolf had already lost his mind and was completely controlled by Tiger Soul's evil spirit. He only had murderous intentions in his mind. Everyone within his line of sight was his enemy.
A Wild Wolf had been delighted, but all that greeted him was a blood-red tiger-shaped saber glare. It split him apart from the middle.
"Don't get close to him!" Chief Wolf and the others were shocked. He shouted loudly in warning, "Turn around! Lure Flame Wolf back to Flame Town, hurry!"
Any other group might have already had their entire team destroyed if they ran into such a situation, but Wild Wolves immediately turned around and left when they saw that the situation was off.
Before his voice faded away, the group had already split into two groups and turned around to charge back to Flame Town!
"Peach Blossom and Immortal have already brought our members to set up nine groups outside the town. Lure Flame Wolf and Happy into the matrix!"
"Got it!" everyone answered.
The sounds of the horses thundering against the ground had been scattered for a period of time before it gathered together once more and became united. Sand danced in the air.
Happy might not be slow, but it was still impossible for him to be able to completely close the distance between him and a group of top-class elites within a short period of time, especially when they decided to make their horses gallop at full speed.
He could only watch as the group drew closer to Flame Town.
He scowled.
Happy knew that once he reached Flame Town, he would definitely be in for a tough battle.
But at that moment, he could not avoid it.
Even if that meant that he had to use up all the Fire Qilin's Blood he had on him, Happy would not back down. He could not let Tiger Soul fall into Evil Emperor's hands. He could not let Evil Emperor's strength jump even higher, and he could not allow the hard earned peace the Chinese plains obtained to be destroyed once more.
He chased behind the dancing sand, and Happy's heart slowly became calm. He gradually shut his eyes and had his true qi surge to block off the sand dancing before his eyes. Meanwhile, he had his spirit sense cover a circular area of 625 feet.
Rumble! Rumble!
The clear sounds of horses thundering against the sand rose, and a team of horses traveled over a sandhill. They galloped down the slop made of loose sand.
Peach Blossom and Immortal had already been waiting at the dilapidated entrance of Flame Town. There were more than one hundred people there, and they looked into the distance with solemn and cold gazes.
Bloody Hell Saber stood beside the two graceful women while his eyes shone with a dark and brutal light.
"He's here!"
Right after he said those words, Peach Blossom sucked in a slight breath. She parted her lips and said these three words firmy, "Into your positions!"
A group of people walked out from the large crowd behind her.
There were ninety-nine people!
All of them were elite Wild Wolves who came out quickly from the Guanlin Temple after they died, and all of them practiced the Forbidden Daiya Technique!
They formed groups of nine, and all of them stood in their positions within their own groups. They formed eleven diamond-shaped groups that were spread around the entrance while they welcomed the sand stirred up by the horses.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Once the group tugged at the reins and drew close, they jumped down from the backs of the horses at the same time and put away their steeds, revealing Flame Wolf, whose face shone was full of bloodl.u.s.t and violence, and the incredibly long and red demon vessel!
"Hiss…"
The group's breathing instantly quickened by a huge degree.
"Listen well! Have two groups hold Flame Wolf back! Others, have nine groups collaborate and form the Great Forbidden Daiya Technique to kill Happy! We must not fail in this!"
After Peach Blossom gave her order, two groups split up from the left and right. They moved past Chief Wolf and his group to go up against Flame Wolf.
Those two groups clashed against Flame Wolf.
One side had been acc.u.mulating power for a long time, and the other was filled with violence.
Blood was immediately shed!
Boom!
Two waves of qi from those in the dao of heaven descended with a bang, and it quickly and directly destroyed the blood-red tiger-shaped saber glare Flame Wolf delivered.
The powerful qi force swept out in the shape of a ring and stirred up sand in the air.
"Lure him into the town!" Immortal shouted loudly.
Once these two groups of people completely the handing over of their escort target in the desert, they quickly started moving into the town.
Since he had his efforts of murder thwarted again, Flame Wolf's bloodl.u.s.t and brutality became even stronger. With a roar, his speed increased, and he chased after them into the town like a red light.
"Where do you think you're going?"
At that moment, Happy arrived.
When he saw Flame Wolf rushing into Flame Town, he executed a dazzling sword glare that cut through the sky. It traveled into the distance.
Peach Blossom's expression became stern.
Compared to Happy, Flame Wolf was not that difficult to deal with, even though he had Tiger Soul.
There was no need for her to give orders. Two groups of people pushed forward at the same time to execute the Forbidden Daiya Technique!
Rumble! Rumble!
Sand howled. Two waves of energy that caused the weather to change appeared at the same time. In an instant, two huge hands were formed outside the torn, and they went to seize the sword glare Happy flung off.
Bang!
Yellow sand flew everywhere. The sword glare shattered as well.
The two waves of sand looked like waterfalls shooting into the sky. They stood in between Happy and the Wild Wolves, and they looked very magnificent.
The aggressive momentum caused everyone to feel the air becoming heavy, as if they were suffocating.
The Wild Wolves had their expressions change.
"What a powerful sword qi! Just what sort of martial art has this guy been practicing? One casual slash alone is the equivalent of a full-powered strike from someone in the dao of heaven."
Even though Happy's attack had been intercepted, the Wild Wolves were deeply shocked.
Most of the people were killed by Flame Wolf, the remaining thirty or so did not even know how they died, and they still did not have a clear grasp of Happy's current strength.
But when they saw the power in Happy's strength, all of them were shocked, and they finally understood why their leader had his plans thwarted repeatedly by this person.
