Sword Among Us c1-1268

by Black Swordsman Online

  When Little Moon Immortal heard his words, her face went as red as the setting sun.

  Delicate Servant teased her in a charming manner. "Sister Moon Immortal is blushing! Young master, you might have a chance."

  If she had not said anything, it would have been better. However, once she spoke, the expressions of Blood Robes, Langye, and the others who knew the two matchless beauties' temperament very well, changed slightly!

  "Wait!"

  When the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe was about to go into the room while holding Little Moon Immortal's hand, Langye's eyes almost bulged out.

  Blood Robes could not stop his expression from turning cold. Swiftly though, he schooled his expression and made it gentle again. "Sir, you have astonishing martial arts, and it makes me have the urge to fight against you. Why don't we spar a little?"

  Even though Blood Robes had witnessed Langye's loss, he did not know the stranger's true abilities. Besides, recently, he had gained some achievements with his Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill. If he went up against the person alone, he was confident that he could stand proud against anyone without fear.

  'Hmph! I was waiting for you to say that.'

  Happy turned around slowly.

  Langye and Blood Robes' secret meeting made him realize that Class One Hall seemed to want to make a new move.

  Since Sky Penetrating Tower was serious about getting involved in the conflict, he did not mind dealing a blow to a conceited person who regarded everyone else as beneath him.

  Even though Happy could not kill anyone in Heaven Fragrant Tower, if he could defeat Langye and Blood Robes in one go as well as chase them away from Little Moon Immortal and Delicate Servant so that they could never summon these two girls again, it would make him very pleased.

  He stopped moving and turned around.

  "I heard that you've died once, Vice Hall Master Blood, and that your abilities were compromised. I didn't expect that once you recovered, you would immediately be so ambitious and hot-blooded! Very well, since you have such interests, I will entertain you. Let's see whether I am stronger or Happy is better."

  Blood Robes was stunned silent.

  Having someone mention something shameful in the past was definitely something that would cause disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to others.

  "Even if you want to be conceited, you have to choose the right person before whom you do so!"

  He snorted coldly and turned into an astonishing violent gust of wind that shot right in front of Happy. After landing there, he glared at him with a dangerous spark in his eyes while looking down on him!

  Chapter 485 - A Picture of Dragon and Elephant

  "Perfect timing!"

  Happy could only wish for Blood Robes to take the initiative to ask him for a fight. Once it happened, he turned around and delivered a punch. He did not avoid the palm-generated wind Blood Robes had delivered proudly.

  "Be careful of his Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill!"

  Wandering Know-it-all could not be considered a true martial artist. He did not have great sight that could let him see very quickly. When he saw that Happy had actually decided to not use any weapon and went up against his enemy with just his palms, he panicked and quickly said a reminder.

  Wandering Know-it-all would not be able to predict, even if he made calculations, that Happy actually had a close relationship with Blood Robes for two years and knew Blood Robes' Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill very clearly. That meant that he was not stupid enough to fight against him in close-quarters combat.

  Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was incredibly amazing!

  Wherever its palm-generated wind went, a dragon-shaped vortex would surround it closely. As long as Happy thought about how he wanted to fight, he did not have to fear Blood Robes.

  Bang!

  With one hit, not only did their palms not touch each other, Blood Robes was forced back a few steps, and his eyes sparkled.

  "What a powerful palm technique."

  When they exchanged blows, he could clearly sense a powerful force weaken the power of his palm strike, and at the same time, it increased his opponent's strength.

  The damage from his palm-generated wind was actually above his opponent's, but that increase and decrease turned their damage identical. The effect of Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill was not just interrupted by the air that wrapped itself tightly around the man's arm, it also suffered a little setback because it had crashed against the dragon-shaped vortex.

  "It's no wonder you're so conceited! But if you only have this amount of strength, it won't be..."

  Blood Robes snorted coldly, but before he could mutter his final word—enough—he heard a suppressed dragon roar charging through the air. Then, he noticed a force that was much stronger than before rising from his opponent's body.

  He was astonished, but he did not dare to be negligent. He activated all four of his qi realms in one go, and a powerful suction force surged up his arm.

  Even though he was shocked by the increasing strength and power within his enemy, Blood Robes did not fear this sort of head-on clash of pure power.

  The stronger his enemy was, the more excited Blood Robes became!

  Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill was unique in the sense that it could weaken its enemies' qi and fill up its user's qi. While watching his enemy become weaker and more miserable in front of him, Blood Robes would have even more room to execute and display his abilities.

  However…

  Bang!

  Even when he swung his palm, he did not manage to grab his opponent's arm.

  A mighty power crashed fiercely into him.

  Even though Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill could weaken and absorb the opponent's strength through the air, the man had actually charged at him vigorously. The inertia from the powerful force made him tremble because of the crash, and since he could not maintain his footing, he took a few steps back.

  "Again!"

  He let out a furious roar, and a palm-generated gust of wind and dragon roar reached his ears with an even more astonishing momentum than before!

  The dragon-shaped vortex that was less than two feet thick was now larger than before. It drew out a faint yellow glare in the air and a piercing howl before it crashed violently against Blood Robes, who was retreating.

  Blood Robes continued to use his Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill to absorb and withstand the powerful force from the air with gritted teeth. But the force and the impact from the dragon-shaped vortex were too much. He just continued losing.

  'Damn it! I'd like to see just how many times you can attack! I'll suck you dry!'

  When Blood Robes saw the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe get closer to him while attacking with a matchless momentum that suppressed him to the point that he could only passively absorb his qi, Blood Robes was so aggravated that he gritted his teeth in exasperation. But he did not have a way to handle the situation. His opponent's martial art was incredibly domineering.

  The third punch, fourth punch…

  Even though some of Happy's qi was weakened, Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm could counter Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill to a certain degree, so the loss was not great. It did not affect Happy's offense at all.

  On the contrary, his momentum just continued increasing as he attacked!

  He also had a much smoother and easier time compared to when he fought against Master of Breaking Vows, because Blood Robes could not fight back at all!

  Suddenly, Happy thought of holding back a little.

  He did not want to increase his strength too quickly and display all his strength to defeat Blood Robes, which was why he subconsciously held back a little with every attack, even though he still retained his mighty offense and speed to ensure that he could force Blood Robes back.

  Bang!

  Thud, thud, thud.

  To the others, Blood Robes seemed to be completely suppressed.

  He did not have any way of fighting back. At the seventh punch, he alre
ady staggered to the edge of the yard!

  "Get lost!"

  Blood Robes was finally unable to handle the barrage. He tapped against the wall, and with a momentum that was greater by nearly one quarter of his previous momentum, he jumped into the air, and a fist-generated wind that was nearly at Moksha Realm shot out. He intended to use the rebound from the wall to save himself from his losing streak.

  'It's here!'

  The eyes of Langye and the others lit up.

  In truth, they had already noticed that Blood Robes was not at such a great disadvantage based on his steady retreat. Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill was probably acc.u.mulating strength in the dark while it weakened the strength of the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe.

  Right then, when they saw Blood Robes charge out like a cannonball, they immediately knew that his counterattack had started!

  But just when Blood Robes' strength increased by leaps and bounds, Happy erupted with an even more astonishing momentum!

  "ROAR!"

  A huge vortex quietly swept up an innumerable amount of dirt and fallen leaves in the yard. It dragged along the dust on the ground and swept up countless sturdy tiles. With a shrill and mighty dragon's roar, a dragon head that was three feet thick and made of a mixture of dust, ashes, fallen leaves, tiles, and other stuff appeared around Happy's palm in a manner that stunned the people's hearts. He formed his fingers into the shape of a claw, and the dragon head let out a furious roar that tore at the hearts. It went charging at Blood Robes, and after a single swipe, he crashed into the middle of the yard like a comet. A huge pit was formed on the ground.

  Bang!

  Countless shattered tiles fell all over the ground, creating a mess!

  The crowd was stunned silent.

  They did not have time to call out to Happy to stop, because Happy had already attacked again, not giving Blood Robes any chance to regain his footing.

  Ninth attack!

  Bang!

  It was only then that Blood Robes finally noticed that the strength he had been acc.u.mulating for the counterattack was something that his opponent had been waiting for for a long time. His expression instantly turned pale, but his gaze grew fierce.

  "Reverse Stars!"

  It was one of the great profound skills of Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill. It could instantly turn his enemy upside down and make him topple over. Even though it would use up a lot of his qi, Blood Robes could no longer care about it.

  Happy had long since noticed that Blood Robes was about to do that when he took his starting stance, and he had been secretly on guard. He shut his eyes and entered the state of using his qi to guide his senses. He was ready for his counterattack.

  But what he did not expect was that his body would tremble, and at the instant he was turned upside down, a picture naturally appeared in his mind!

  While he felt nauseous, a huge dragon let out a roar that could tear through the clouds. Its huge body twisted about recklessly, and it brought with it circles of great power that caused the weather to change.

  It was as if a great dragon that moved about the earth had suddenly stretched out its body!

  Chapter 486 - Surrender at the Sight of the Dragon

  Reversing Stars!

  It was one of the killing moves Blood Robes had recently come to understand.

  With the unexpected killing move, Blood Robes believed that when it came to solo fights, as long as he did not meet up with people like One Emperor or Happy, he would have no opponents in the game.

  At the moment the man in the yellow brocade robe landed on the ground, Blood Robes moved beside Happy as quickly as lightning and struck his body with a palm strike!

  Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill!

  'Suck!'

  His palm landed firmly, and an abundant amount of power surged into his body through Happy, but at the same time, an incredibly dangerous presence suddenly enveloped Blood Robes' body. He came to the abrupt realization that a frightening chill had risen from everywhere, and he instantly felt his hair rise.

  But Blood Robes still did not believe that Happy could do anything once he was struck with Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill. The greatest characteristic of Star S.u.c.k.i.n.g Great Skill was that it would chase after its enemies until it s.u.c.k.e.d away their final shred of strength.

  However, the crackling sounds of beans popping while they were stir-fried at a high temperature rose from Happy's body, and a power so mighty that it was astonishing surged out from within him.

  Blood Robes immediately noticed that the gap that delivered Happy's qi to his body seemed to have been blocked by magma. His palm became hot, and he quickly pulled it back before he delivered another palm strike!

  However, he did not expect that Happy would suddenly tumble in the air and avoid the fatal blow Blood Robes delivered at his head.

  The great dragon opened its eyes!

  "ROAR!"

  At the instant their hands touched, a power as great as an avalanche rose from Happy's arm and went to Blood Robes' body. He looked as if he had been hit by lightning. He grunted in pain, and his body was sent flying horizontally backwards.

  Happy had waited laboriously until he could finally deliver the tenth attack, and he finally understood Surrender at the Sight of the Dragon while he was turned upside down by Reverse Stars. There was no way Happy would not be excited after something like that happened. He let out a long shout and chased after Blood Robes in the air like a large bird.

  He saw Blood Robes' eyes suddenly go wide.

  "ROAR!"

  The dragon's roar that rang in the air seemed to have broken through some sort of limit, and it became clearer and louder than before! While it roared in anger, the clear shape of the dragon appeared on the back of Happy's palm and entered Blood Robes' sight.

  Eleventh move!

  Great Dragon Stretches Claw.

  Boom!

  The sound of a solid crash rose, and Blood Robes cried out in pain. He broke a wall and flew out of the yard of the best room from the a single punch. He even created a terrifying trench when he reached the ground.

  "Vice Hall Master Blood!"

  When they glanced back at the man in the yellow brocade robe, their eyes were filled with fear and respect.

  Their view of the world was too narrow…

  "Truly, our view of the world is too narrow. When did such a top class player appear in World of Martial Arts?"

  Blood Robes covered his c.h.e.s.t and coughed up blood while he smiled in anguish. He knew very clearly that if it were not for the protective effect of Heaven Fragrant Tower, that palm strike just then would have been enough to kill him on the spot.

  And the attacker did not even have any gloves. He had reached such power while just relying on his martial art.

  "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm does indeed live up to its name!"

  Langye had a complicated expression on his face. If he still could not guess what martial art the other person used, he would not be fit to be the tower master of Sky Penetrating Tower.

  "I have stayed too long in Beijing, and I thought that Beijing could represent all of World of Martial Arts. By the looks of it now, our view of the world is too narrow. Aside from One Emperor and Happy, there are still plenty of powerful people in the game who have never shown their abilities.

  "Let's go!" Blood Robes took a few Dew Pills in succession until he finally recovered some of his mobility.

  When he saw the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe head back to the room with the other mysterious man, he sighed with reluctance to admit defeat. "I'm sorry, Brother Lang, not only have I not managed to restore your honor today, I even embarrassed us entirely."

  "Who knew that such a powerful and ruthless person would appear in the best room?" Langye laughed wanly.

  It was not the time to be jealous of the people who had bought Little Moon Immortal and Delicate Servant's services. Sky Penetrating Tower and Class One Hall's dignity had been completely stomped on
and crushed, but they did not even know by whom.

  "Let's talk about the alliance later. I must return to the headquarters. This person is prideful and has extraordinary abilities, but he refused to let us know of his true identity, so he's definitely not someone from Beijing. I must investigate this matter thoroughly." Blood Robes had a solemn expression on his face.

  Langye also knew that since the stranger secretly came to meet with a person in Beijing, they could only hope that he was just passing by instead of intending to take some of the resources of Beijing from their hands!

  Sky Penetrating Tower also had to regard the matter seriously.

  "If that's the case, Big Brother Blood, take a leave first. We can talk to each other some other day."

  "I'll see you later."

  Blood Robes got up, changed his clothes, and quickly left.

  Langye and his brothers stayed silent for a long time before Langye said, "Do not reveal what happened today to anyone else."

  "We know."

  Their hearts were heavy. They knew that what happened did not just concern Sky Penetrating Tower's reputation, but also the reputation of Class One Hall's Blood Robes. If word of it spread, the alliance between Sky Penetrating Tower and Class One Hall might end up going up in flames.

  Once Langye gave a few more instructions, he cast a deep glance at the best room, and a hint of respect could be seen in his eyes.

  "Have two people remain at the entrance and pay attention to those who seem powerful coming in and out of the place. Once you find them, notify me immediately."

  "Understood!"

  *****

  "Happy, you were really flashy today. I reckon that Blood Robes will definitely not have the mood to discuss anything with Langye right now. Langye's influence in Beijing is pretty great though, so he will definitely think of a way to find out our identities."
