Then, when they linked all this with Happy's statement of killing and making a wine offering as well as the fact that Class One Hall was fighting against the four sects everywhere in the north, a number of them s.u.c.k.e.d in sharp breaths, and they were able to understand some of the hidden meaning in this in their silence.
There was a high chance that Class One Hall led a large group of people into Shaolin Temple to fight a bloody, final battle against Happy.
When they thought of this, many people knew that the tragedy that befell the Shaolin Temple during the Emperor's Birthday event will repeat itself. Mount Song was about to be drenched in blood again!
*****
"Clan Master Happy, I came here to ask you a question." Dream Clouds walked on the stage and stood in front of Happy.
Happy did not see the enthusiastic and awe-inspiring look he often saw on Dream Clouds' face in his previous life. Now, in its place, was an indifference that was holding back a wave of madness.
"This time, just how much does Mu Clan intend to go?"
As expected of the leader of the strongest sect in the north. Even if she already died multiple times in Happy's hands, she still managed to sound sharp and awe-inspiring when she spoke.
"Hall Master Dream, your wording is a bit off." Happy took a step forward nonchalantly. "All of this is indeed my plan, but I am an honest man who does not do anything underhanded. Hall Master Dream, you've set up a net that surrounds us from everywhere on the road the four sects will take to return. Are you saying that you intend to line up along the road and send us off?"
"You—"
"It's better if we don't say any unnecessary nonsense." Happy interrupted Dream Clouds' explanation. "During the battle at the plains, you have already long since tore off the last semblance of friendliness between us and your hall. Fight against us with your hall members and your best. Stop using all your false displays of cordiality to maintain this superficial harmony. After Beautiful Robes Faction was destroyed, I've already endured this long enough, and I don't intend to continue tolerating your presence."
Dream Clouds said nothing. Her expression turned even darker.
She could hear an underlying meaning from Happy's words, and it was one that she still did not have the time to truly accept.
Hence, she immediately decided to make her voice sound cold. "Then, based on what you're saying, from today onwards, Class One Hall and Mu Clan will be like fire and water, and we will fight publicly as enemies!"
"No," Happy smiled and answered.
But before Dream Clouds could relax, his next sentence caused her expression to freeze. "It's not today. Since yesterday, we've already stood across each other as mortal enemies."
"Haha! Very well!" Dream Clouds was so angry that she started laughing. "Since you've already made your decision, I will play along with you! All hundreds of thousands of elites from Class One Hall are in the north of the Chinese plains, and I have never feared anyone when I fought in this place."
She stopped talking for a moment. Her gaze turned cold, and she let out a bark of laughter. "Do you know why I was late just now?"
When she heard this, Happy fell silent.
Dream Clouds saw the slightly unnatural look on Happy's face, and the smile she had been suppressing for a long time finally bloomed on her. "Do you think that I will panic and be at a loss just because the people from the four sects split up to attack me? Let me tell you, all the people you have in your command are already being monitored by my people. They're currently still safe because my people are waiting for my orders."
But he expected this. His worries were verified at that moment. He knew that even though he managed to gain the initiative on the first night, Dream Clouds still had the Prophet supporting her back, and he was someone who can break the concealment effect on players within a short period of time.
After one night, there must be some people who have already fallen into Dream Clouds' control!
But this was to be expected.
It was impossible to have a complete win if they fought against a large organization who can control the flow of information. Happy can only try his best to reduce the number of his elites dying.
Which was why he had everyone split up to do whatever they needed to do.
He believed that with the Prophet's speed, he will not cast all his attention on the Chinese server, because he needed to focus on other servers as well. At most, he can help Dream Clouds figure out three to five of his friends' locations.
"Since you've already decided to declare war, there's no longer any need for me to continue keeping these thieves alive." She turned her head around and made a signal. Happy quickly noticed that a familiar figure in the crowd swiftly released two messenger pigeons.
When he saw this, Happy's heart tensed, but it immediately relaxed.
If there were only two messenger pigeons, it meant that she only figured out two batches of people.
Happy said nothing.
"Don't worry, Happy, even though we didn't manage to find a lot of your people, my people will definitely treat them well. We will definitely find all of your people, Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as Wind and Rain Alliance's people."
Happy knew that Dream Clouds was not lying in this regard.
After all, they were in the north. She can easily investigate many of the places that can hide people.
However, Mu Clan had already been prepared for this a long time ago. Regardless of which group of people she found, with the places they hid and the environment they were in, they will definitely cause Class One Hall to pay a huge price while they fought against them.
This was something where Dream Clouds will still not be able to gain an upper hand over him.
Also, the leaders of the groups all had Illusion Life and Death Pills. Hence, not only will there not be a reduction to the fighting members in Mu Clan, Class One Hall will instead need to send even more people to monitor them, or else, they will become sharp knives that will enter deep into enemy territory!
There were more than five thousand people who stayed in the north, and more than two thousand had also snuck in.
Class One Hall will need around fifty thousand to sixty thousand people, perhaps even more, to monitor and trace them.
If he excluded the ten thousand people who had already basically lost their fighting power after they died and the tens of thousands of people who had not recovered during the battle in the plains, Class One Hall will actually not be able to mobilize a lot of forces.
Besides, if Dream Clouds had to mobilize her forces, she will have to mobilize those who were at the defense line.
Happy did not know whether Dream Clouds thought of this, but when he decided on the operation, he had long since planned everything. Class One Hall might seem strong and had a lot of powerful soldiers, but in truth, it was just an injured beast. As long as they can last through this beast's fiercest and crazed attack, it will walk to its own destruction slowly.
"Alright, are you two done talking?"
Do Jin, who had been ignored for a long time by the crowd, was finally unable to hold himself back from letting out an enraged roar. He pointed his longsword at Happy and challenged him again. "Your enmity has nothing to do with me, but I will be taking your head."
"Did Miss Son of Samsung Group send you here?" Happy suddenly turned his head around and asked at that moment.
"Hmph, so you still remember this?" A cold expression flashed on Do Jin's face. "I thought that you would have forgotten about killing one frail girl, since you kill so many people everyday."
Happy did not respond to Do Jin's complaints. He just nodded and said with an indifferent tone, "You're different from Wei Zhentian…"
"Don't compare me with that person who doesn't deserve his title," Do Jin stated with a scornful expression.
A chilly look flashed in Happy's eyes.
"Is that so?" he mumbled and put away his Dragon Saber, which attracted countless people's
gazes, into his Universe Saber.
"How about this? I will use Wei Zhentian's martial art against you, and let's see whether you truly have the right to be conceited."
Chapter 905 - Happy is Injured
"How about this? I will use Wei Zhentian's martial art against you, and let's see whether you truly have the right to be conceited."
Once he said those words, the entire area burst into commotion.
Do Jin had clearly declared his scorn toward Wei Zhentian just now, but now, the meaning behind Happy's words was even clearer.
Unless you force me to use other skills, or else, you will not have the right to regard Wei Zhentian in disdain.
"Fine! Very well!" Do Jin's expression was cold. When he saw Happy put on the starting stance for Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palm, his sword-wielding hand trembled lightly, making it clear just how great his emotions surged at that moment. It was clear that he was livid now.
"I've heard that your Nine Yang Divine Skill will allow you to get the best things in the world, and you will be able to swiftly imitate the ultimate techniques from people and those who are powerful. Today, I will see whether that is true."
As expected, Do Jin was not an easy person to deal with.
With just one sentence, he pushed Happy on a pedestal. Not only did he shift the spotlight to Happy's Nine Yang Divine Skill so that everyone will ignore Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palm, he also indirectly increased his own image. If Do Jin won this fight, no one can say that Happy did not bring out his true abilities. Instead, they will say that that was all there was to Happy's Nine Yang Divine Skill.
Dream Clouds, who had returned to the crowd, nodded.
Do Jin being provoked by Happy was something out of her expectations, but she did wish to see more elites on the International Influential Rank of the Strong standing as Happy's enemies. At the very least, this will be beneficial for her.
*****
At that moment, the atmosphere outside the battlefield gradually became tense.
One of them was a disciple from Goryeo's Bright Sword Sect, who was also on the International Influential Rank of the Strong, and the other was Happy, publicly acknowledged as the strongest player in the Chinese server, but had decided spontaneously to use the Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palm he learned from Wei Zhentian to fight.
Boom!
Do Jin was indeed someone who can never be inconspicuous. At the moment he drew his longsword, an astonishingly cold sword will charged to the sky with a piercing and clear sword w.h.i.n.e.
The people watching the fight felt as if the area before their eyes became brighter.
Quite a number of Shaolin Temple disciples who had originally been angry fell silent because of this as well.
"This guy might be arrogant, but he is indeed strong…"
"That's right."
He had only drawn his sword, and the invisible sword will that was released swept toward Happy with a chilling will. It might seem to have an astonishing momentum, but it already produced an effect that did not lose to a Myth Realm martial artist's attack.
"It's just full of bravado." There was an indifference that will not melt away from Happy's face.
In fact, he did not even bother activating Shifting Stars and just allowed Do Jin to pounce on him this way.
Do Jin's attack might seem strong, but it will not even be able to destroy the profound skill in Golden Bell Cocoon, which was only a skill at Blessed Realm.
"Cut him!"
Do Jin's way of suppressing his enemies with the use of his momentum had always been effective while he was in Goryeo, but while he was in the Chinese server, it had failed to work multiple times.
The first time was when he was in Class One Hall's martial arts hall. Hanago had fought against him without caring about his offense using his momentum, and he went up against Do Jin with a defensive posture.
But the person before him was even more outrageous!
At the very least, Hanago will still fend against while being fully prepared to fight, but Happy did not even put on a defensive stance. He activated neither his qi realm nor his body fortification but just stood there nonchalantly. No matter how Do Jin looked at him, his entire body was filled with openings.
But it was because of Happy's lack of defense that caused Do Jin to feel a chill crawl down his spine, for some weird reason.
As he stared into Happy's calm gaze that never changed, a feeling that he was unfathomable rose from the depths of his heart.
But when he thought about the words Happy said that caused him to be incredibly enraged, he immediately poured in more power into the longsword in his hands.
Boom!
His shocking sword will brought with them countless sword glares that surged out from him, and they gathered together to form a picture of a glacier being overturned in the air to crash down on Happy.
His sword will can change even the environment.
Do Jin's sword technique had already surpassed One Emperor's level while Happy fought against him at the summit of Mount Tai.
But unfortunately for him, Happy had already fought too many times against Myth Realm elites on the plains and had practiced multiple ultimate techniques, he was already immune to the dazzling and shocking effects from sword techniques.
He brought his hands down.
Whoosh!
Happy cut into the sword glares that filled the air.
Before Do Jin even had the time to be surprised, he saw that Happy was about to be cut by his dense wave of sword glares, and he suddenly felt his heart tense. A sudden power shot out from the ground very close to his feet.
Boom!
Even though it might not necessarily be able to injure a person, but it can break their tempo, and it will have a one hundred percent success rate in doing so.
At the moment Do Jin's sword momentum froze, Happy had already moved through the sword glares through the gaps they left in between.
"You—" Do Jin reacted very quickly.
When he realized that the situation was not right, he immediately switched from offense to defense, and he was prepared to widen the distance between them.
But unfortunately for him, Happy had already moved near him. He wrapped his arms around air, and a powerful suction force rose in the air between them.
The great suction force easily destroyed Do Jin's defense, causing the latter to panic, and in an incredibly pathetic manner, he attacked madly with his sword.
For a period of time, sword glares cutting through the air could be heard, and those sounds rose without stop.
Most of the people watching could not even tell that Do Jin was at a disadvantage and was in an incredibly fl.u.s.tered state. They only thought that Do Jin managed to remain calm in the face of danger, and the sword glares that exploded from him were incredibly shocking.
Only Dream Clouds and Monk with Thick Eyebrows had dumbfounded expressions appear on their faces. They scowled, because they did not expect that Happy will be able to trap Do Jin so tightly with a technique he copied spontaneously. With just one exchange of blows, Do Jin was already at a great disadvantage.
The people on the International Influential Rank of the Strong might be great and have amazing attainments in certain areas, but there were only around thirty people on the International Great People Rank.
Those thirty or so people all had very comprehensive abilities and did not have very clear weaknesses. They can fight against Myth Realm martial artists head on and even defeat them.
Wei Zhentian might have lost to Happy, but Happy can already read the essence within Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palm.
There were eight incantations in total for this martial art, and it was more subtle and had a greater effect against enemies compared to True Nine Words Seals.
Happy used the tremble incantation for his first move, and he easily shattered Do Jin's offense.
For his second move, he used the suck incantatio
n, and he effortlessly destroyed Do Jin's balance.
Then, he used the third incantation…
"Shift!"
The people watching the fight saw that the waves of sword qi that filled the air suddenly disappear without a trace.
And Do Jin only felt a hidden force coming from Happy's hand. The qi in his Dantian region was blocked a little, and he immediately felt as if the world had turned over its head. He cried out in surprise, and he felt a great power turn him around before he crashed on the ground violently.
"Bright Sword!"
During the moment of life and death, Do Jin finally decided not to continue hiding his strength. At the same time he crashed against the ground, a sword glare that looked like lightning shot out suddenly from his waist.
Bright Sword was one of the three ultimate moves from Master Bright Sword, Fu Cailin. It was already very close to the state where the user can control his sword with his will alone.
With Do Jin's personality, he seldom used this move in front of others, and it was his greatest killing move in his trip over here.
Hence, when he attacked with Bright Sword, he saw blood being instantly drawn from Happy's body by the flash of lightning. As for Do Jin, he staggered backward because of inertia to negate the power from Wandering Universal Eight Trigrams Souls Palms, and he shouted madly, "Haha! It's ended!"
But his laughter did not last for a long time before it swiftly died in his throat.
Do Jin saw Happy slowly turn around while he bled nonstop. His sword was held firmly in Happy's hand, and his blood dripped down continuously from his hand.
"It's a pretty good hidden weapon."
Happy quietly put away the sword into his Universe Bag. His moves were calm, and there was an unfathomable, thought-provoking smile on his lips, as if the person who was injured was not him. When Do Jin and the others saw this, they just felt that Happy looked incredibly callous.
