Sword Among Us c1-1268

by Black Swordsman Online

  A huge crack that resembled a spider web appeared on the wall!

  "...What fast reaction speed."

  "He managed to understand Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures' attack rhythm and counterattacked. As expected of a top-class elite in the world."

  Immortal and Peach Blossom had their expressions change slightly.

  They turned around to look at Proud over All Life, only to find that when he saw his Gu poison insect being sent flying, his expression changed slightly before he swiftly recovered, as if he was not at all worried about his pet.

  Buzz!

  Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures swiftly flew up once more 328 feet away from them.

  Its body sparkled in a golden light, and the speed of its wings fluttering seemed to have become faster. No one could tell whether it was injured or not.

  Whoosh!

  Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures vanished once more.

  This time, Happy was the one who looked surprised.

  The damage caused by one single attack from Recondite Steel Heavy Sword could not be described with words, and even if he only unleashed the lowest possible damage, it was still enough to severely injure an elite at the peak of Inaction Realm.

  But that Gu poison insect was uninjured?!

  Whoosh!

  Suddenly, Happy's pupils shrank a little.

  'How fast!'

  At the moment Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures appeared, Happy could clearly sense that its attack speed had become much faster than before. His ears twitched, and several fine sounds of air being pierced through swiftly entered his body.

  'It's even using poison needles.'

  Happy was incredibly gloomy.

  Fortunately, he activated Indestructible Body.

  Right when the poison needles touched his body, they immediately bounced away.

  But Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures crashed violently into Happy's body, and as if it returned Happy the favor of sending it flying just now, it crashed into Happy so violently that he was sent dozens of feet back.

  Clang!

  While he was airborne, Happy activated Petite Dragon in a stroke of wisdom, and he was just in time to avoid the next wave of attacks from Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures. His large sword will gushed out of his body without him bothering to hide it in the slightest, and his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword sent out a large aquatic dragon made of black flames. It crashed into Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures so violently that it flew far away.

  Bang!

  The Gu poison insect suffered a bad crash this time.

  It dragged out a huge trench on the floor that was full of corpses, and when by the time it stopped, it was covered in blood and dust. It looked incredibly pathetic.

  When Happy regained his footing, he noticed that the Gu poison insect's speed seemed to have become faster, and its temper also became worse. A brutal presence that was not restrained in the slightest surged out of this tiny monster.

  "Good." When he saw that Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures attacked even fiercer than last time, Happy was not terrified, but delighted. The fighting spirit in his eyes became even stronger.

  Up to this moment, excluding Empress Yin, this was the first time Happy encountered an opponent who could make him reveal his strength to his heart's content.

  This time, he could use Proud over All Life to check his progress over the past month.

  ...Even if the two women with the fiendish presence beside him might possibly be from Wild Wolves.

  Chapter 993 - Cat and Mouse

  Buzz!

  At the moment Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures appeared in the air, its savage mouth was filled with a ghastly and terrifying presence, and it was about to be able to touch Happy's neck.

  Shick!

  In a flash, Happy's body was cut into several pieces by Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures' mouth and its wings, which were as sharp as divine weapons.

  But in truth, it missed.

  The Gu poison insect's mouth snapped shut, and it released an enraged screech, unable to accept the result. Its tail shuddered, and a faint black light instantly struck an afterimage nearby.

  Wave-like Subtle Steps.

  At that moment, even Happy could only use the unfathomable nature in Wave-like Subtle Steps and constantly moving around to mislead the Gu poison insect and avoid its attacks.

  The frequency of attacks for Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures was too fast.

  He could still seize the chance of the Gu poison insect stopping and send it flying using his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword, but now, it was becoming increasingly cunning. Its attacks came wave after wave, and it used its mouth to tear at Happy while also spitting out poison fog and poison needles to ambush him. It messed Happy's rhythm rhythmically, and at the same time, forced him to be at a loss as to how to handle the situation.

  This was clearly not something an insect could do!

  'Proud over All Life!'

  Happy soon realized that Proud over All Life was commanding all actions made by the Gu poison insect.

  However, due to the two mysterious women exuding that cold presence beside Proud over All Life, Happy rationally did not choose to get close to Proud over All Life.

  For some unknown reason, Happy could sense an even more dangerous presence than Flame Wolf from both the women.

  'I'd like to see how long you can maintain your connection with your Gu poison creature.'

  Even though it was becoming increasingly difficult for him to handle the situation, Happy did not panic in the slightest. He knew that it was impossible for Proud over All Life to not pay even the slightest price in exchange for Happy's damage —nearly 40,000—to not damage this insanely powerful insect. Besides, it was impossible for him to constantly control it without suffering any limits whatsoever.

  While he fought against Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures, Happy quietly observed the two women beside Proud over All Life.

  Immortal and Peach Blossom were also paying close attention to Happy's actions.

  In the beginning, the two women were indeed very shocked by Proud over All Life's strength as a Gu poison user.

  If even a top-class player like Happy could only descend into a state where he was suppressed, then anyone who said that Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures was weak definitely had a few screws loose in their heads.

  However, as time slowly passed, they still noticed the inadequacies within the Gu poison insect, or rather, they noticed what was lacking within Proud over All Life!

  Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures was indestructible, fast, and outstanding. It was already an undefeatable existence.

  But Proud over All Life's mind clearly could not keep up with Happy's rhythm.

  Even though Happy was currently in a suppressed state, all the Gu poison insect's attacks missed. Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures' speed was extraordinary, but it was a pity that while Proud over All Life could control the Gu poison insect's speed, he did not have a mind that could correspond with its speed, causing Happy to be able to easily avoid each of its attacks.

  Also, controlling another mind to attack and attacking with your own free will were two completely different concepts.

  When he locked down the enemy's location and released the order to attack, Happy had already changed his location. Hence, it could be said that all his attacks would land behind Happy!

  Although it might seem as if Proud over All Life had the upper hand, in truth, Proud over All Life was not in a very good situation.

  The two women had even noticed the sweat beading over Proud over All Life's forehead. They also discovered the solemnity and uneasiness through the crease between his eyebrows, along with other signs.

  He was at the last of his strength!

  There was a time limit to Proud over All
Life's control over Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures.

  And just as they expected, after five minutes, Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures lost all interest in Happy. It stopped for a full second in the air before it flew back to Proud over All Life. Its awe-inspiring presence swiftly wilted away, and its speed as it flapped its wings had become much slower. By the looks of it, it was not as spirited as before.

  Proud over All Life put away Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures while he was covered in cold sweat. When he faced the two women's dumbfounded gazes, he said, "Every time I release Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures, I will need to use up a lot of essence, blood, and qi. I will also need to wait for an hour before I can release it again. I didn't expect that even Six Golden-winged Mother of Gu Poison Creatures won't be able to kill him. This is bad."

  "Sect Master Proud, don't you have any other methods?"

  "Of course I have other methods. If the Twelve Gu Poison Disciples are here, we can absolutely set up a Gu Poison Matrix in the headquarters and whittle down his HP with an endless wave of five poisons, or at least, we can make sure that he doesn't have the time and energy to destroy our foundation."

  "Where are your Twelve Gu Poison Disciples?"

  "Most of them are not in the headquarters."

  "Sect Master Proud, you're in a precarious situation right now, but you should know that it's not convenient for us to attack. If we show up in the Chinese server with our identities to help you, it's the same as us harming you." Peach Blossom's gaze was cold, but her tone was incredibly calm.

  Proud over All Life gritted his teeth with a pale face. "I know.

  "This is a grudge between me and Happy, and it is indeed not convenient for you to show up and fight. Why don't you leave immediately? With my strength alone, I truly cannot stop him."

  Silence.

  Immortal and Peach Blossom exchanged a glance. Then, without hesitation, they turned around and left.

  Immediately, only Happy and Proud over All Life were left in the large hall within Five Venoms' headquarters.

  When Proud Over All Life turned around to face the sect foundation once more, he heard something that brought him great unease. That voice came right beside him.

  "You did everything you could to help them conceal themselves, and they left just like that? Those Wild Wolves are seriously ungrateful louts."

  "Happy, don't you dare spew nonsense! We'll settle the score between us today, right here, right now. I was already confident that I can withstand the consequences of killing you that day when I sent my sect to attack, and even if I lose, I can bear with it!"

  "Oh?" When he heard Proud over All Life mention what happened in the past, Happy felt a pool of heat gather in his c.h.e.s.t, and an indescribable, cold glare shone in his eyes. His tone swiftly turned cold. "Since you remember what happened that year and believe that you can withstand the consequences, then very well, I'd like just what made you think that you can bear with the consequences."

  Before his voice faded away, a series of dazzling afterimages appeared between them.

  Bang!

  What Proud over All Life realized it, it was clearly too late.

  Before he could bring out his mini cauldron to summon his poisonous creatures, an astonishing force had already seized his throat. He was lifted, and as the wind roared in his ears, his back crashed violently against a wall of the headquarters.

  "Urk!"

  He could not control himself and coughed up bits of blood.

  Proud over All Life's face was filled with panic and fear.

  During the three seconds he faced Happy, he was in a constant state of being controlled.

  He attacked with Dragon Capture first, and it was followed by hidden force.

  With just one move, Proud over All Life was injured.

  At that moment, the pressure around his throat was suddenly gone, and his feet landed on the ground.

  Proud over All Life's true qi automatically circulated in his body. At the same time he regained control over his body and activated his body fortification, he also grabbed a shiny and black longspear.

  He stood against the wall.

  Proud over All Life looked as if he had regained his confidence and feeling of safety in an instant. Some of his fierceness and imposing mannerisms returned to him, and he stared at Happy, who was ten feet away from him.

  "You had a chance to kill me just now."

  "Don't you know that the game cats play when they catch mice?"

  Happy stood with his sword across Proud over All Life with an incredibly resolute and indifferent expression. His Recondite Steel Heavy Sword sank into the ground, and Happy looked incredibly relaxed as well as unperturbed. He just stared in the direction of the main door to Five Venoms' headquarters. After a few minutes of fighting, a large group of Five Venoms members had gathered outside.

  Proud over All Life also saw his people. When he heard Happy's words, he laughed coldly. "Unfortunately for you, you should know that you're not the cat, and I'm not the mouse."

  Before he finished speaking, he flung his longspear.

  Boom!

  The air around him flew!

  His presence as an elite in Inaction Realm was instantly revealed, and his qi surged into the air! A dazzling forest of spears overlapping with each other instantly enveloped his body.

  He became one with his spear!

  Like a huge awl, he tore apart the sturdy corridor with the force of a bulldozer and crashed violently into Happy.

  "That's not necessarily true."

  When he faced the full powered strike from a top-class elite at Inaction Realm, Happy just narrowed his eyes slightly before he said those words softly. Then, he calmly tightened his grip over his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword while it remained in the ground and turned his waist…

  Whoosh!

  Happy stood where he was but made Recondite Steel Heavy Sword dance like a large, black aquatic dragon. It released a dull roar while it was in the air, and without any fancy movements, it went up against Proud over All Life's extremely fierce awl-shaped forest of spears.

  Boom!

  The black aquatic dragon and forest of spears crashed into each other, and a qi wave that was terrifying to behold exploded at the spot where the weapons clashed.

  As a loud bang that shook the heavens and earth rose, a black shadow shot out of the qi wave that shattered. He crashed against the walls surrounding the headquarters and shattered it. Then, while he was covered in shattered tiles and bricks, he rammed into the group of Five Venoms members outside the wall in an incredibly pathetic fashion.

  "This is…"

  "Sect master?!"

  The Five Venoms members who were waiting outside saw the bloody person who came flying outside. He held a familiar-looking longspear in his hands, and when they saw it, their faces instantly turned incredibly sour.

  A few Five Venoms members quickly came up to help him to his feet!

  But at that moment, a dazzling figure charged out of the headquarters through the dust and wind flying all about the place, and he brought with him a suffocating pressure as well as killing intent.

  Boom!

  Before the Five Venoms members who went up to support Proud over All Life and the group of people behind him could see just who was the person, they sensed a bone-chilling sword will descend from the sky. A large and black Aquatic Dragon howled in the air, and it was a sound that made even the air tremble. Then, it swept toward them.

  With one sweep, he sent all these people flying!

  "AH!"

  "Urk!"

  Dozens of Five Venoms members coughed up blood and were sent flying away, and they died on the spot.

  Proud over All Life fell once more.

  He looked up with great difficulty, and he was just in time to see a person slowly walk before him. His young and handsome face contained an endless, cold will, but it was also calm. He talked with the air of someone superior
to him.

  "Sect Master Proud."

  Proud over All Life did not respond.

  "I know where your confidence came from, and it's not just me who knows it. All the players in the Chinese server know. But let me tell you this, from today on, no one can stop me from destroying Five Venoms, not Dream Clouds, not Blood Robes.

  "No one can stop me."

  When he said this, Happy stopped talking for a while.

  Proud over All Life then noticed Happy looking in a direction at the crowd outside, and an even darker voice crawled into his ears. "Including Wild Wolves."

  His prideful and firm tone, along with his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword, then completely destroyed Proud over All Life's final thread to life.

  Chapter 994 - Unexpected Reward

  Just like many people predicted, after being silent and keeping a low profile for a month, Happy had indeed caused a stir in the official website's forum once more. As Proud over All Life and more than one thousand Five Venoms died in the headquarters, and Five Venoms was forced to shift their headquarters to another place, trouble started brewing in World of Martial Arts.

  The destruction of Five Venoms' former headquarters was different from the time Sky Demon Branch was destroyed. When Five Venoms' former headquarters shifted, Happy could be considered to have destroyed a great problem in the Chinese server.

  This news caused many players to be incredibly excited, and some people even put on feasts publicly to celebrate the occasion. In fact, they longed for Dive Venoms to be completely destroyed.

  This time, not many people paid attention to what Happy obtained from the storage of Five Venoms' headquarters.

  At the same time many people were excited and felt as if their hate had been vented, they could not help but cast their gazeds on Class One Hall and Blood Alliance.

  Happy had already shown a powerful momentum and rained down fierce slaughter on the first day he egressed. It was clear that his target was Class One Hall and Blood Alliance.

  Many people watched by the side and waited to see how Class One Hall and Blood Alliance would handle the situation.
