Chapter 1124: Heavenly Saber’s Breakthrough
Boom!
The disorderly bed of reefs still had to withstand the attack from the furious waves. Three matchless elites and Happy formed an irregularly shaped rectangle and stood on the reefs.
Ningdao Qi, Song Que, and Happy locked down on Evil King at the same time.
In Evil King’s eyes, this young man who was the strongest of his generation was already not inferior to the two famous elites. The battle just now was already enough to prove it.
Besides…
Evil King looked away, and his gaze landed on Song Que, who stood tall like a sword and was gradually fusing with the world. At that moment, he was becoming increasingly like a saber which could pierce through the heavens and the earth! His power could not be blocked, and his qi was still increasing!
Evil King’s gaze slowly focused.
At that moment, Ningdao Qi had clearly noticed the abnormally on Song House’s master. He quirked his eyebrow before he had a delighted look appear on his face.
Congratulations, Brother Song! You’ve gained your wish!
Hahahaha!
A heroic laugh rolled out like thunder. Circles of invisible qi waves accompanied by an aggressive presence that was difficult to block viciously crushed the waves around the area. It was as if multiple blades were cutting at the air, and the momentum was astonishing.
It’s all thanks to Evil King and our Young Friend Happy here helping me!
Heavenly Saber Song Que threw his head back and laughed. With a relaxed and heroic manner, he caressed his saber lightly, and his gaze landed on Happy for a brief moment.
Senior, you praise me too much. I have also learned a lot from this battle.
When he heard this, Happy answered with a smile on his face.
During the battle just now, Song Que had not only managed to improve his skills while he fought under high pressure against Evil King Shi Zhixuan while he was One with the World, he himself had also finally reached the state of becoming One with the World. With one step, he crossed into the ranks of those who had stepped into the Dao of heaven.
Right now, when he breathed, he could stir up the might of the world, and his saber will had become several times stronger than before. It was already impossible for Evil King to think about winning against him easily.
He was now the third matchless elite Happy saw in World of Martial Arts who had become One with the World!
Of course, Happy had also gained quite a lot of benefits in this battle.
He fought in a duel to the death against someone who was truly One with the World, and the speed of the battle, as well as the degree in which he had to be tense, far surpassed what he had to endure during his usual training.
The speed in which he leveled Sun Finger became much faster; this fight had managed to push it from the fifth realm straight to the middle stage of the sixth realm, and his familiarity with it also largely increased. Its damage and speed had also jumped up by leaps and bounds. Right now, it had completely surpassed Great Demonic World Destruction Art.
Aside from that, his Affinity and Body Movement had also increased by five points.
He had just fought against Evil King for a short twenty minutes, but Happy had visibly improved. There was no way he would not be excited because of this.
Ningdao Qi cast Happy a glance before he smiled elegantly and nodded at him. Then, his gaze landed on Shi Zhixuan once more.
Evil King, right now, Brother Song has stepped into the Dao of heaven, and this is a glorious event worth celebrating in the Chinese plains. I will not bring you trouble. Please leave with the people from the evil cult, and we will settle the matter today on another date.
As of current, even though they were up against Evil King three against one, Ningdao Qi could tell that since Song Que had just entered the Dao of heaven, his strength had not stabilized yet, and he was also injured. With Ningdao Qi and Happy alone, it was practically impossible for them to take down Evil King, who was One with the World. That was why he decided to offer a cease-fire.
Hmph.
Evil King cast a faint glance at Ningdao Qi before he scanned Happy. He sucked in a deep breath before his eyes finally landed on Song Que.
It seems like fate would have it that you will not die today. We will exchange blows on another day.
I will wait for you to challenge me again!
Heavenly Saber Song Que had his saber stab the ground, and his voice was incredibly lively.
Evil King did not linger around the area. He left while stepping on the waves in a leisurely and relaxed manner. Not once did he turn his head around.
The group of people on the cliff watched Evil King move through the waves into the setting sun in a relaxed manner, and many people found themselves enraptured by the sight.
One with the World…
Once Evil King left, the quest to save Song House from its predicament ended, and the players who joined the quest all received their rewards, though the amount varied.
However, all the people who were in the area knew that the person who benefitted the greatest from the battle was definitely Happy.
At Inaction Realm, he had completed the core of the quest by fighting side by side with a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm and forced Evil King to retreat. But that was not all, he had also contributed to Song Que’s success in becoming One with the World. Right now, he obtained the favor of several matchless elites, and he also gained Song House’s affection. The value in this cannot be measured.
My young friend, come with me to the city!
My martial artist friends, today, you have all helped Song House, and I am eternally grateful for it! I will thank all of you on behalf of Song House. Shidao, Yuzhi, order the mansion to immediately prepare a feast. I will be serving our guests.
Understood!
When Song Shidao saw that Evil King left and that his father had also reached the Dao of heaven, achieving the goal of his life. With great joy, he left to carry out his orders.
Song Yuzhi, Kuo Zhong, Xu Zhiling, and the other Song House elites wrapped their fists in their palms and saluted the people beside them while they passionately invited everyone to head to Song House to be their guests.
This way, please!
This way, please!
My young friend, Brother Ningdao, this way, please!
Song Que stroked his beard in high-spirits while he extended an invitation to Happy and Ningdao Qi.
Senior, since you have invited me, I must surely show my respect to you by accepting your invitation.
Happy reciprocated by accepting the invitation.
Haha! It seems like I will be basking in your spotlight, Young Swordsman Happy. I’ll be going to enjoy the feast as well, then.
Ningdao Qi flung his sleeve in a relaxed manner, then jumped off the reef to fly to the cliff.
Song House had managed to escape destruction this time, and a feast with hundreds of tables was set up in the inner city. All the martial artists who shared the same principles in the city were invited.
This sort of feast held after a rescue was commonly seen in World of Martial Arts.
However, usually, the players who did not join the core of the quest knew that they would not receive any benefits even after they received their rewards. They chose to leave without hesitation and seize time to train or carry out new quests.
But this time, things were slightly different.
Two martial artists who were One with the World had appeared, and the elusive Ningdao Qi had also shown up. Right now, even Happy had shown up!
More than ninety percent of the martial artists who helped Song House chose to stay. The inner city was as lively as a celebration during Chinese new year. Many people talked about the battle at the bed of reefs, and all of them had lively expressions on their faces. Their spit even flew when they talked, and they spoke as if they had personally witnessed the fight.
There was also a feast in the inner mansion of Song House, and it was set in the hall. It was incredibly exquisite, and only around one hundred people could enter the place. Not only did Happy see Phantasmal Shadow and Lin Xiao, he also saw Silver Wolf, Thunderous Battle, and other familiar faces whose strength could not be considered among the top group of players. These people had all joined the quest to protect Song Shidao and Song Yuzhi.
When Happy walked into the mansion with Song Que, all the people’s gazes were instantly gathered on them.
Phantasmal Shadow and Wu Kuo were already familiar with him, so they got up and went up to him.
Sect Master Happy.
Many of the people in the hall got up and greeted him. Regardless of whether they were familiar with Happy or not, they just wrapped their fists in their palms and greeted him.
Everyone, please accept my greeting.
Happy wrapped his fist in his palm and greeted each of the people in the mansion, even some of the people who were not well-known. He looked at them when he greeted them, and there was a smile on his face. He did not say anything during then, and he only greeted Phantasmal Shadow and Wu Kuo last.
My apologies. If I have been inattentive to you, I hope that you can be magnanimous enough to forgive me, tower master and vice tower master.
Phantasmal Shadow, Wu Kuo were Happy’s long acquaintances. Naturally, they would not be at odds with Happy because of this. However, Wu Kuo did find it slightly unbelievable that Happy had just spent a few minutes greeting all the people in the mansion.
If Happy had been seemingly impolite to them, then logically speaking, he should not have shown these people so much courtesy as well. After all, these people were not that famous in the game, and Phantasmal Shadow as well as Wu Kuo also found Happy’s act of sending a private message to them and apologizing to them later very telling. He did so in the tone of a friend, and the atmosphere between them was also friendly, but it was still enough for them to see that Happy paid a lot of importance and attention to these virtual martial artists.
‘Why?’
After Phantasmal Shadow sat down, she watched curiously as Happy started chatting with a person to whom he was clearly not very familiar with on the table next to hers. The surprise on her face grew even greater.
Brother, you seem very familiar. Could you be Silver Wolf…?
The people on the table next to Phantasmal Shadow had been paying attention to Happy and were observing him quietly. When they suddenly heard Happy’s question, Thunder, Knife, and Bar looked at him in surprise. They stared at Happy, then at Silver Wolf, who also had a strange look on his face.
I am indeed Silver Wolf…
When he turned around, he saw Happy with a cordial smile on his face. His mind was filled with only puzzlement, and he found that his thoughts had come to a screeching halt. He had never liked talking to others, and he was usually rather indifferent when treating others as well. But now, he suddenly found that he did not know what to say, and he found himself rather clumsy in his words.
Many of the people in the mansion looked over.
It IS you!
Happy sounded delighted because his guess had been correct. Under everyone’s surprised gazes, he took the initiative to wrap his fist in his palm.
I am Happy. A few years ago, I watched your battle replay, and I have always remembered it. I was certain that you will definitely rise to fame and become one of the few elites in World of Martial Arts, but I do find it regretful that you left, and I am also curious as to why you left the game for nearly two years, Brother Silver Wolf.
It’s not two years, it’s three years.
Knife butted in to correct him.
Happy looked as if he had suddenly realized something, and he nodded at Knife to show his gratitude.
I see. That is a pity…
When he sensed Happy’s sincere and regretful gaze, Knife subconsciously nodded in return, but almost immediately after, he found what he did baffling.
Thunder, Bar, and the other people who shared their table found the situation incredibly strange, and they looked at each other at a loss.
‘This is Lovely Land’s sect master?
‘He sure is friendly. He’s not like those other sect masters at all. He doesn’t keep everyone at arm’s length!’
Just now, when I saw your side profile, I found you very familiar, but since you didn’t wear your silver mask, I wasn’t too certain. I didn’t expect that it’s really you, Brother Silver Wolf. Even though I don’t know what happened three years ago, since you have returned to World of Martial Arts, I believe that the Chinese server will definitely become an even more interesting place!
Happy said sincerely.
Silver Wolf said nothing. He was originally puzzled as to why Happy would speak to him, but when he heard Happy say those words, he was suddenly a little touched. It was already a surprise that Happy would be able to remember his name for such a long period of time, but Happy had actually managed to recognize his uncovered side profile, and it was enough to show just how much attention Happy paid to him.
You praise me too much.
Happy knew Silver Wolf’s personality very well, and he knew that when Silver Wolf reacted this way, it meant that he did not want to say much. Perhaps he would actually need some time to digest the information, which was why Happy chose not to speak to him any further. He wrapped his fist in his palm and nodded before he also nodded at Knife, Thunder, and Bar. Then, he switched to his next target.
Alliance Master Lin, Alliance Master Red Dust, I have heard of how noble, chivalrous, and just you are, and I have been full of admiration for you since two years ago, but unfortunately, fate never allowed us to meet. Today, as fate would have it, we managed to meet each other at Song House. Please allow me to be audacious enough to use someone else’s wine to offer a toast to the both of you.
Happy got up and picked up a wine cup, and this attracted everyone’s attention again.
But Lin Xiao and Red Dust were different from Silver Wolf. They were both great heroes in their own regions, and when someone offered them respect, they would offer a great deal more respect back to them. When they saw how earnest and serious Happy treated them, their expressions became stern. They stood up at the same time.
Sect Master Happy, you are far too polite! We, too, admire your deeds, and compared to you, what we did are not worthy of being mentioned.
These words came from the bottom of Lin Xiao’s heart.
Red Dust nodded.
A toast to you, sect master!
Happy’s expression became stern, and he raised his hand and said,
No! During the fight against Class One Hall and Wild Wolves, I fought because I had nothing to lose, and that’s why I fought with my life on the line. It’s different from the both of you. You enjoyed a high status, and you had everything, but you were willing to attack with turning for the sake of a righteous cause and for the Chinese plains. For this, you sacrificed hundreds of thousands of members from Chivalry Alliance, but you didn’t complain about it. I admire this from the bottom of my heart, and on behalf of all Lovely Land members, I propose a toast to the both of you as well as all the members of Chivalry Alliance!
Right when he finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent.
Everyone held their breaths and watched Happy finish his wine in one gulp after he finished his fervent and impassioned speech.
Lin Xiao and Red Dust stood as still as logs as they held their cups and stared at Happy, who still had a sincere look on his face. They did not move even after a long time had passed.
