Sword Among Us

“They’re finally here!”

When the hundreds of Mu Clan elites who followed Happy rushed into the battlefield from the back, the Wind Assault Tower members clearly feld their pressure decrease. When Towering Palace’s rear fell into chaos, they seized the time and launched a counterattack.

Both sides met up with each other.

“Where’s Happy?” When he ran into a Mu Clan elite, Wu Kuo eagerly seized a person and asked.

That person did not even turn his head around. “Our boss left ahead of us. He has been here since a long time. I reckon he went to cause trouble to those Towering Palace higher-ups.”

Wu Kuo and the others instantly looked at each other at a loss.

‘Cause trouble to those Towering Palace higher-ups? Vast Heaven and Grim Green are at the battlefield… Could it be that he went to find that woman?!’

“Brothers and sisters, our time for a counterattack has arrived!

“Kill them!”

The people from both sides gathered together, and they numbered to nearly two thousand people. They instantly launched an astonishing charge that swiftly tore through a few gaps in Towering Palace’s large unit.

“Damn it!”

“Who are they?! Why can’t we cut them?!”

Towering Palace’s members had shocked and alarmed expressions while they retreated as they fought.

Only some of those who joined the frontlines earlier during their fight against Mu Clan’s branch knew that these were Mu Clan’s elites. Their equipment were incredibly good. In fact, they were even better than those who died during the battle at the branch!

After all, while the people who mobilized from the other branches for Yangzhou City’s branch might be among the top one hundred fighters in each branch, the branches they originally belonged to still needed someone to guard them, and the ones who stood at the top of the ranks in the branches were never mobilized. However, ever since the grievous news about Yangzhou City’s branch spread out, quite a number of branches sent their best fighters over.

This group of people who appeared at the battlefield were not that much weaker than Feng Zhi, and they had absolutely no problem in fighting against ten people alone.

This group of people quickly carved a few bloody paths by forcing their way forward. While the Towering Palace members screamed in shock, the Mu Clan members continued pushing forward in Yangzhou City’s direction.

“Mu Clan, what a sect.”

When they saw that the situation had instantly been turned around, the factions of power and martial artists who were watching in the distance felt incredibly shocked.

“Towering Palace is in big trouble now!”

“Towering Palace still has a very great foundation of power. It’s not likely that Mu Clan will be able to destroy Towering Palace’s headquarters with just this bit of people.”

Quite a number of people were still rather confident with Towering Palace.

However, a small number of people looked into another direction in the distance.

“Not necessary.”

*****

Clear Music was ambushed. Blood Robes died. As the instigator for the ambush at Mu Clan’s branch and the other ally for Towering Palace, Dragon Sect’s vice sect master must show up.

When Happy said those words, a figure jumped up from the crowd not too far in the distance, and he landed in front of Clear Music lightly.

“There’s no way I won’t dare come out when the strongest fighter in the Chinese server summoned me.” There was a rather solemn expression on the middle-aged man’s face.

Just now, he saw Happy attack a few times from the back of the crowd, and this was the second time he sensed a powerful sense of danger from someone.

The first was from One Emperor, and the second was Happy!

They were both too strong!

“…You’re the reason why Clear Music dared challenge Mu Clan?” Happy’s tone was very calm. He had already heard about this person’s strength, and he knew that he was about as strong as Silver Wolf. He was one of those to whom Silver Wolf cannot gain an upper hand over them even after a long battle, and he was among the ranks of a top-class player.

However, ever since Happy’s Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style reached the eighth realm, a person of this caliber will have a hard time to continue serving as a threat to Happy.

“Specifically, it’s not me, but us.” The middle-aged man did not want to lower his own prestige before Towering Palace and the entire Chinese server. With a snap of his fingers, the crowd split up, and twelve people walked out in a single file.

They were all Dragon Sect members, and each of them walked with steady footsteps. Their breathing was long, and their eyes were lively!

“We have plenty of other elites like this in our martial arts school in America, and right now, there are only thirty-six who entered China!”

The middle-aged man tried to use numbers to build an imposing presence and pressure, but Happy’s casually spoken words destroyed it.

Happy quirked an eyebrow. “So, are the other twenty-four in the crowd that is currently retreating because they’re beaten down?”

Nearly ten thousand people were forced to withdraw by two thousand people. They could not hold up to them at all, and this caused them to show themselves to be losers.

The middle-aged man looked awkward and embarrassed.

He could only cast a resigned look at Clear Music. The average strength of those Towering Palace members was indeed something that caused people to feel resigned and helpless.

Naturally, Happy knew what this middle-aged man was thinking. He continued mocking him mercilessly. “You don’t have any power to turn the tides, and you call yourselves top-class fighters? Hey, foreigner, do you think that just because you learned martial arts in a martial arts school and are slightly better with your fists that you can disregard everyone else in the world?”

“You—”

“Alright! If you want to get involved with the Chinese world of martial artists, you will need strength. Since you said that I am the strongest in the Chinese server, I will temporarily take that title with a smile and measure your strength. I’ll see whether your tricks and skills will be enough for you to survive here.” Happy’s tone became increasingly sharp and rude!

He was already filled with hate toward this group of people who caused trouble in the Chinese server, especially to those who were Chinese. He had not immediately attacked because he wanted more local Chinese players to know just what sort of ulterior motives these foreign factions of power harbored. At the same time, he wanted to give a little warning to the other foreign factions of power who harbored the same thoughts.

“Alright.” Dragon Sect’s vice sect master was already forced by Happy to a point where he had to fight. His expression darkened, and he said frankly to his disciples. “Attack together. Get a feel of the strongest fighter in China.”

*****

“Strongest fighter in China.”

“This is the first time Happy admitted that he is the strongest fighter.”

“Heh heh, looks like after he entered Moksha Realm, Happy’s strength has indeed increased by leaps and bounds, or else, he won’t act in such a flashy manner.”

“Stop talking and watch! They’re fighting!”

“Those Dragon Sect martial artists are indeed pretty good. I heard that a lot of elites from Mu Clan died in their hands, and Happy is going to fight against more than ten of them at the same time. Whew…”

Not too far away was a man in a brocade robe with black borders. He had a Bamboo Hat over his head, and he was like a statue that stood coldly in the crowd. Behind the thin white veil were a pair of burning eyes that stared at Happy, Clear Music, and the group following Dragon Sect’s vice sect master. There was faint puzzlement and expectation in his eyes.

This person was naturally One Emperor, who escorted Silver Wolf and the others out of Yangzhou during the break out.

Even though he left Silver Wolf and the others, One Emperor still felt worried, which was why he stayed in Yangzhou and followed them in secret to keep watch over their actions.

He did not expect that he will run into Happy unexpectedly!

Besides, the strength Happy showed caused his eyes to light up.

That speed and ferocity might not compare to Fatal Thirteen Swords, but the quick slashes and sword slash that was shown stirred up One Emperor’s heart as a powerful swordsman. He wanted badly to fight against Happy so that he can test his newest eighth slash, which he had just mastered!

However, it had not been a long time since the battle at the summit of Mount Tai, and even now, he did not have absolute confidence that he could win against Happy. However, he was very curious as to what sort of level Happy had currently reached.
