Blood River Sect’s headquarters were filled with corpses, and blood flowed down in rivers.
A faint bewitching laughter affected the circulation of qi and mobility of all Blood River Sect members. But the moment Happy drew his sword and stood in front of them, their morale increased, and they stopped Cold Moon Palace’s advance even under Sunflower Aura’s effect.
Countless pairs of eyes stared at Lu Mingyue, who hung in the air with an unpleasant expression. They also stared at Happy, who stood on the ground proudly with his sword and whose aura seemed rather monotonous in comparison.
A solemn atmosphere swiftly spread out between the two of them. It was especially strong around Lu Mingyue. When Happy made a clear stance and showed that he wanted to fight for Blood River Sect, his expression turned very dark. He retracted his long and pale palm back into his red robe, and the fierce look in his eyes became clearer.
At that moment, Lu Mingyue no longer sought to investigate the details behind why Happy and Blood River Sect had decided to reconcile. He believed that the two parties had to have formed an alliance based on some benefits. Otherwise, Blood River Sect’s elites would not have rushed back so quickly to support their headquarters.



If that’s the case, then very well, I also want to witness just how much you’ve improved in a month.

While looking at Happy from high above, Lu Mingyue gently swiped at his lips with his sleeve. His long and narrow eyes, which were covered in eyeshadow, looked like two beacons of light that suddenly shone in the darkness.
Even though Happy was very famous and showed faint signs of surpassing those on the Dragon and Phoenix Ranks through the first person pay-to-view battle replay system, Lu Mingyue did not care about all that.
He had witnessed Happy’s abilities in close-quarter combat before, and he knew that Happy had mastered an ultimate technique. Hence, during his experience in the first person battle, he was not shocked like the others. He had only analyzed the fight.
Happy’s abilities seemed to have improved since the time they fought in the peach blossom forest, but he did not seem to be too different. Aside from the final move that was rather eyecatching, the other small tricks were all things that Lu Mingyue himself could execute.
Meanwhile, over the past month or so, Lu Mingyue had practiced hard to completely inherit Dongfang Bubai’s legacy. He even had his girlfriend help him put on makeup. Not only did his qi realm improve at an astonishing rate after that, his divine skill reached a much higher realm.
Hence, even if he faced Happy, Lu Mingyue did not feel too much pressure.
Suddenly, Happy frowned. He swiftly brought his Noble Sword up before him in a horizontal position without any prior sign that he was going to do so. His arm trembled, and the clear sound of metal clashing against metal rose. A spark shot out from Noble Sword.
Ding!

Your Needle Tide has already went from being visible to invisible?
Happy frowned and looked up to cast Lu Mingyue a glance. He was shocked in his heart.


Lu Mingyue was also shocked.
The second profound secret of Needle Tide gave the user the ability to kill their enemies without a sound, especially when the target was in Sunflower Aura and under the effects of the user’s demonic sound. The enemy would not be able to notice the needles at all, and even if they noticed them when they were about to touch them, they would be too slow to defend themselves.
Lu Mingyue’s intention was to use Needle Tide to destroy Happy’s Golden Bell Cocoon and injure Happy’s qi. However, he did not expect Happy’s sensitivity to have become so strong.
The clash caused both sides to increase their wariness in secret.

It is impolite not to reciprocate! Take my attack as well!

Happy laughed long and hard, and with a tap against the ground, he stepped on the corpses on the ground. In an incredibly strange manner that defied the laws of gravity, he rose slowly with his sword pointed at Lu Mingyue.
On his way, a qi whirlwind was formed. It quietly negated the effects of Sunflower Aura, and he became faster as he rose!
Lu Mingyue felt the dejected feeling of being targeted by the bane of his existence once more.
Every single time he executed Shadowless Needle, he would use up a lot of qi, and he could not use it repeatedly.
Normal flying needles could not break Golden Bell Cocoon. Hence, when he saw Happy fly toward him in such an arrogant manner, Lu Mingyue felt as if he had been caught in a trap.


But he was forced to continue fighting.
Cold Moon Palace and Blood River Sect’s members were all on the ground, so there was no way he could immediately avoid him when Happy had just attacked him.
Lu Mingyue snorted coldly and braced himself for going up against Happy. He intended to use his Sunflower Aura to fight against Happy for some time while the other’s speed was affected. Once the situation turned chaotic, he would look for a chance to strike with his Shadowless Needle again.
But what he did not expect was that Happy’s body would continue to speed up while he was in the air!
In the blink of an eye, he rushed close to Lu Mingyue as if he was completely unaffected by Sunflower Aura.
‘This is bad!’
Panic flashed briefly in Lu Mingyue’s eyes. When he realized what had happened, he no longer had time to retreat.
He flicked his wrists, and the sound of something rushing through the air rose. Around ten flying needles shot out like rain. Lu Mingyue cut off all the crystal threads behind them without hesitation, and they shot out just like normal hidden weapons.
‘Haha!’
Naturally, Happy had long since seen through Lu Mingyue’s weakness. He did not dodge, and he did not slow down either. He closed in on Lu Mingyue, and with a flip of his wrist, a layer of light was released from Noble Sword. It cut off Lu Mingyue’s retreat, and at the same time, he formed his left hand into a claw.


He executed Dragon Capture with one hand!
‘Knew it, it’s this move!’
The situation was critical, but Lu Mingyue had prepared a method to handle it. At the moment he saw the change in Happy’s left hand, he gritted his teeth, sucked in a breath, and delivered a Soft Palm Strike.
Since they were very close to each other, both of them moved incredibly quickly.
Bang!
Lu Mingyue’s palm interrupted Happy’s Dragon Capture, and even Happy could not help but praise him in his heart.
But unfortunately for him, if Happy could not execute Dragon Capture fully, he would not waste his qi on it.
He only paused for a moment before activating Petit Dragon to avoid Lu Mingyue’s second palm strike. He forcefully executed Dragon Capture and caught Lu Mingyue’s hand firmly in his grasp.

Pardon me!
Happy shouted, and while Lu Mingyue did not have any power to fight back, his Noble Sword shone with a blue light that was as bright as the stars in the sky!
Seven Stars Brilliant Moon!


The eyes of the Blood River Sect people shone with excitement, and they felt all pumped up for a fight.
As for Cold Moon Palace, when the members saw their palace master being struck, they cried out in surprise and sucked in a breath. Worry appeared on their pale faces.
But Lu Mingyue was instantly killed, like some people might have expected.
After all, Lu Mingyue was a powerful player in possession of Sunflower Manual. Even though he was slightly inferior in terms of close-quarter combat, he had plenty of ways to protect himself, and the versatility of his attacks was very high.
He tugged at his flying needles, and they shot out with an astonishing speed to crash into Happy.
And they truly crashed into him.
The moment the flying needles shot out, Happy’s third strike landed on Lu Mingyue, and the violent power caused Lu Mingyue to lose control over his body.
Bang!
Lu Mingyue could not control himself, and he crashed violently against the wall to the left of the headquarters. He looked incredibly pathetic, and all his prestige was gone.
In truth, Happy himself knew very well that with Lu Mingyue’s strength and versatility, even if he had the full Ten True Dragon Styles, it would be impossible for him to kill him in a fight within a short period of time. If Lu Mingyue wanted to run, it was completely impossible for Happy to kill him.
If Lu Mingyue wanted to leave, no one in the same qi realm could kill him.
Happy had only seized the opening between Lu Mingyue’s attacks when he executed Shadowless Needle to defeat Lu Mingyue with one attack.
The moment Lu Mingyue got up from the ground, he looked very dishevelled and glared at Happy viciously.
I’ve spent too much qi today, and it’s not convenient for me to fight against you. I’ll come for you again… Hmph! Retreat!

The Cold Moon Palace members who saw that the situation was not right for them quickly withdrew from the battlefield like a tidal wave. They all left Blood River Sect.
