The supreme saber of martial arts is Dragon Saber!

We call upon the world to take up arms, do not refuse us!

If Heavenly Saber does not appear, no one can defeat Dragon Saber!

Those words were spoken by countless people on the internet and in World of Martial Arts. The children on the streets, the wandering martial artists, and even peddlers seemed to know about Xie Xun staying in Spirit Snake Island.
Rumors circulated among the players as well. Not only did Dragon Saber and Heavenly Sword have damage equivalent to fourth-echelon masterpieces, their attributes were extraordinary, and they concealed Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual within them.


Many people said that if they could get Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual from Zhou Zhiruo, it was only a matter of time before they would become top-class martial artists who could dominate the world of martial artists!
Others might question the truth of those rumors, but when Zhou Zhiruo, two amazing manuals, and two divine weapons were connected together, they were more convincing and tempting than anything else in the world.
For a period of time, trouble stirred up in Yangjiang. Martial artists with weapons on their waists and backs could be seen hurrying about everywhere.
Everyone headed to the port!
Ships of all sizes went together like a dragon from the port to the river and even the sea. All of them sailed in the direction of Spirit Snake Island.
Everyone wanted to become the owner of the two manuals and divine weapons.
Even though they knew just how hard and dangerous was the path ahead, they could not withstand the temptation. Countless great players formed parties to head to Spirit Snake Island.

Night fell.
When Happy and Zhou Zhiruo headed to the beach, their attention was attracted by the sound of weapons clashing, and they changed their direction. They looked at each other, and with their own thoughts in their minds, they went into the bamboo forest while the night provided them cover. They went to the empty spot near the small bamboo house.


There were a lot of player corpses near the small house. Chen Youliang was already gone, and the people fighting were Golden Haired Lion King Xie Xun and three Holy Fire Order messengers dressed in strange attire.
Once the three Holy Fire Order messengers injured Golden Flower Granny, they worked together to fight against Golden Haired Lion King Xie Xun, and in the end, even Zhang Wuji was forced to show up.
Happy was stunned speechless.
When he saw Zhang Wuji wielding Heavenly Sword enter the fray, Happy noticed that the breathing of Zhou Zhiruo, who was close to him, quickened. It was clear that she did not expect that Zhang Wuji would also appear in Spirit Snake Island.
There was no need for Happy to look at her. He knew that Zhou Zhiruo’s face was definitely filled with surprise and delight.
Happy sighed in his heart and thought, ‘There’s your sweetheart.’
The people fought for a while. At one moment, Xie Xun suddenly roared loudly and turned around to thank the teenager who appeared. He mentioned that it was a matter of Ming Cult and he did not wish for anyone else to get involved. Xie Xun, who was blind, did not know that the person who appeared was his foster son.
Zhang Wuji did not immediately state his identity. After he fought for a while, his Heavenly Sword was sent flying by a Holy Fire Order member.
Clang!
When Happy saw that Heavenly Sword got stuck in an empty spot not too far away, he felt his breath quicken, but he soon regained his composure.


The Heavenly Sword would not be easy to obtain.
But the others did not seem to think so.
At the moment Heavenly Sword fell out of Zhang Wuji’s hands and stabbed the ground, the sounds of robes fluttering could be heard from the bamboo forest across from Happy. Dozens of martial artists in night traveling clothes shot out of the bamboo forest. They were so fast that Happy sighed in amazement as he watched them.

Get lost! Heavenly Sword is mine!


Die!

Before anyone could get close to Heavenly Sword, the players who had been waiting for a long time in the bamboo forest started a fight against themselves. Sword forces, saber glares, and palm shadows intersected with each other.
Around ten of the people who had been in the lead were mercilessly cut down by the people behind them, and they fell with a bang on the ground. The attackers stepped on the corpses of the people in front of them to reach Heavenly Sword, which stood in the ground.

If I can’t get it, then I won’t let any of you get that sword!

The people who were slower continued to attack those before them. Hidden weapons and throwing knives appeared in the air.
The players fought against each other while delirious with the idea of obtaining Heavenly Sword. It meant that they had forgotten about the fiends in the battlefield.



Where did you come from, you pests?

Golden Haired Lion King was short-tempered. While listening to the sound of wind to determine the location of things, he noticed a group of strangers pouncing on Heavenly Sword, and he swung his Dragon Saber!
Bang!
The golden saber glare was like a halo of dazzling sunlight. It instantly swept toward the group of martial artists who had jumped out of the bamboo forest.
Tear!
The group of people were struck by Golden Haired Lion King’s full powered slash. They were ripped apart like rags, and their blood as well as their corpses fell all over the ground.

As expected of Dragon Saber!
Zhou Zhiruo gasped in amazement beside Happy.
He nodded quietly.
‘Dragon Saber, as expected of a top-class divine weapon.’
The slash just then contained saber will, and it instantly destroyed all body fortifications. It also dealt damage to the targets, so the players were unable to use their bodies to withstand Golden Haired Lion King Xie Xun’s strength and the might of Dragon Saber!


Their ending could be easily imagined.
Happy believed that even if he activated Golden Bell Cocoon and Petite Dragon, he would still be unable to escape Golden Haired Lion King’s slash unscathed. The players had simply rushed to their own deaths when they went over.
But what Happy did not expect was that the eyes of Zhou Zhiruo, who should not be present, would light up when she saw that Heavenly Sword had fallen out of Zhang Wuji’s grasp.

It’s Heavenly Sword!
she said quickly and urgently. Her voice was full of excitement.
‘That’s right. Heavenly Sword is the treasure that keeps Emei Sect safe. It’s Mistress Annihilation’s sword, which she always kept by her side. In fact, when she was imprisoned, Mistress Annihilation was constantly worried about it.
‘Right now, the treasure that protects Emei Sect is close, so there is no way that Zhou Zhiruo will not be excited.’

Before my mistress died, she ordered me multiple times that I must find Heavenly Sword and bring it back. I also had to develop Emei Sect’s martial arts and make them great.

Young Swordsman Happy, why don’t I attract Golden Haired Lion King’s attention, and you seize the chance to help me get Heavenly Sword?


What?!
Happy was shocked.
‘Really, good things never come true, but the bad things always do.’
He had just been thinking about how he would never do something as stupid as those players earlier had done even if someone pointed a gun at his head. Yet Zhou Zhiruo had immediately given him such a difficult problem.
Worse still was that the system also chose to come up and kick up a fuss.

Help Zhou Zhiruo obtain Heavenly Sword. If you accept, you will have to look for a chance to help Zhou Zhiruo obtain Dragon Saber as well. There will be a chance to obtain Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual too.

If you refuse, you will lose Zhou Zhiruo’s trust.

‘What the heck?! Are you done?!’
Happy suddenly realized that while helping Zhou Zhiruo get Dragon Saber and Heavenly Sword was not hard, maintaining Zhou Zhiruo’s trust and affection toward him might be the truly difficult problem.
Getting the Heavenly Sword already required him to go up against Golden Haired Lion King, who had Dragon Saber in his hands. Happy could easily obtain Heavenly Sword if he followed the original progression of the plot, but he just had to be forced to take a turn and risk his life.
But even though Happy criticized it, when he saw the resolution in Zhou Zhiruo’s eyes, he knew that if he rejected her request, all the hard work he did over the last month would go up in a puff of smoke!
He cast a glance at Zhang Wuji, who was fighting against the three Persian Ming Cult Holy Fire Order messengers fiercely, and he could not help but grow serious!

I understand.
He did not say anything for a while, then added,
You must be careful!

Happiness spread through Zhou Zhiruo’s face.
I knew that you would definitely help me.

Once she finished speaking, she tapped against the ground and shot out of the bamboo forest. Her snow white robes swiftly caught the attention of all the people in the battlefield, and the players in the bamboo forest cried out in surprise.

Zhou Zhiruo!

But Happy did not have time to care about that. He gritted his teeth and followed closely behind her out of the bamboo forest, but he soon changed direction to head toward Heavenly Sword almost soundlessly.
