Heart Hastening Palm!
The moment Happy executed Dragon Capture to seize Song Qingshu’s weapon, he did not let down his guard. When he saw black light appear around Song Qingshu’s palms, he immediately knew that the other had learned an evil martial art that had been lost to the world of martial artists for many years.
He tensed up, and the details of Heart Hastening Palm flashed in his mind.
Heart Hastening Palm was an incredibly sinister and ruthless palm technique. It was a soft palm technique, but it used its hidden force to hurt others!
Even if powerful body fortification techniques had a hard time withstanding it. Once they were hit head-on, the person’s organs were injured in an unseen manner. Their hearts and meridian system were damaged, which made Heart Hastening Palm a very powerful martial art.
However, it had disappeared from the world of martial artists for many years, so very few people could recognize it. Even though the martial artists who were watching by the side frowned when they saw the black light, they did not know what it was.
But Happy knew that he could not withstand such a palm strike!
Petite Dragon!
Whoosh!
The palm-generated wind of Heart Hastening Palm pushed past Happy’s body, only slightly grazing him. However, the two people were very close to each other. Song Qingshu’s first palm strike missed, but his second palm strike struck Happy’s shoulder as fast as lightning.
Golden Bell Cocoon rose around him and withstood the blow, but Happy still flew a few feet away with a grunt. He took three steps back before he could stop himself.
When Song Qingshu saw that Happy was hit by his Heart Hastening Palm, he was delighted! Golden Bell Cocoon had not been able to stop the invasion of the force from Heart Hastening Palm.
Song Qingshu tapped against the ground and caught up to Happy. He was prepared to dog him while he had the upper hand and deliver a fatal strike.
But Happy’s reaction time was quick.
Clang!
While airborne, he quickly put Song Qingshu’s longsword into his Universal Bag and sheathed his own sword.
At the instant he landed on the ground, a roaring sword whine rose, and a peerlessly dazzling sword force rose like a bolt of lightning. It charged straight at Song Qingshu.
At the same time, a cold glint shot forth from a restaurant nearby.
The moment Song Qingshu’s body fortification was destroyed, the sword aura that was right behind the sword force was struck by the cold glint. It let out a loud bang in the air, and both of them vanished.
Song Qingshu barely avoided the nightmare of being heavily injured!
When his body fortification was destroyed, he took a few steps backward in a dishevelled manner. He had a hand over his chest while he stared at Happy in a flustered manner. He clenched his fists, prepared to fight again!
At that moment, an awe-inspiring voice descended from the sky!
You unfilial son, do you still refuse to admit defeat?!
When Song Qingshu heard the familiar awe-inspiring voice, he shuddered. He turned his head around to look and saw Song Yuanqiao jumping down lightly from the first floor of a restaurant. He stared at Song Qingshu’s hands with cold eyes.
Song Qingshu’s face turned pale, and he quickly dispelled the force from Heart Hastening Palm.
But his mouth decided to run off on its own to make it seem as if he could continue fighting.
I didn’t lose!
The martial artists who were watching could not stop discussing the topic when they heard it, and they gestured at Song Qingshu.
Song Yuanqiao’s expression darkened.
You say you haven’t lost? Don’t you understand the meaning behind the act of a martial artist losing his weapon? If Happy was not busy seizing your weapon just now but went to rob you of your life, would you have the ability to stand here and talk? Apologize to Young Swordsman Happy! Then go back to Wudang Sect and repent!
I haven’t lost!
When Song Qingshu heard his father telling him to admit defeat, it looked like someone had stomped on his metaphorical tail, and he started shouting.
Losing my weapon is nothing! All’s fair in war, and I’m the one who won! What’s so special about him?! He has already been struck by my Heart Hastening Palm, so he won’t be able to live!
Heart Hastening Palm?
Song Yuanqiao shuddered, and shock appeared on his face.
Young Swordsman Happy, is what he said true?
It is an evil martial art which has disappeared for many years. I don’t know where Young Swordsman Song could have obtained it.
Even though Happy had been hit by the palm strike, the moment he was struck, Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill circulated on its own to negate it, and it had already dispelled most of the hidden force. Right then, he had already recovered from most of his wounds.
When Happy saw that Song Qingshu still refused to admit defeat, he could not help but say to Song Yuanqiao,
Great Swordsman Song, since your son refuses to admit defeat, why don’t you temporarily leave the battlefield and observe? Let me bear witness to Young Swordsman Song’s Heart Hastening Palm!
It was only then that Happy remembered that Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill had already fused the essence of Emei Sect and Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill together, so it had the amazing effect of resisting soft palm strikes. The soft and gentle hidden force of Heart Hastening Palm seemed to be included among the soft palm strikes it could negate, so Happy’s confidence increased by leaps and bounds!
He was sure of his success.
Song Yuanqiao did not think that there was anything off. He hesitated for a moment before he nodded and moved into the crowd.
But Song Qingshu looked as if he had seen a ghost when he looked at Happy. His face was pale, and his expression was one of disbelief. Happy had been struck by his Heart Hastening Palm head-on, but he was fine.
Song Qingshu, you lost!
Happy said.
Anger appeared on the man’s face.
Enough with the nonsense! Our fists will show who’s the real winner!
He roared, and black light appeared on his palms again. With a terrifyingly cold air, he attacked Happy.
This time, Happy did not even bother to dodge. His Nation Protecting Divine Sword quickly slashed at Song Qingshu’s chest.
Bang!
Thud!
The two parties passed by each other.
A black palm print appeared on Happy’s chest.
As for Song Qingshu, he had a terrifying sword gash on his chest.
Happy did not stop moving.
At the moment they passed each other, he turned around, executed Dragon Capture with one hand, and seized Song Qingshu’s palm, which had come at him with equal amounts of savagery and brutality. He then moved his hand to Song Qingshu’s forearm. Then, he moved his sword, and the sharp blade came to rest horizontally before Song Qingshu’s neck.
You lost.
Song Qingshu’s expression was complicated. His eyes sparkled for a few seconds, but even if he was incredibly reluctant to admit defeat, under many martial artists’ watchful eyes, he finally got rid of the black light on his palms. His arms fell to his side, and he accepted the fact that he lost with a dejected expression.
The clear sound of the system notification rose beside Happy’s ear.
Ding!
Completed quest. Song Qingshu lost the duel, and the edge of his spirit has completely disappeared. He will keep to the promise and return to Wudang Sect with Song Yuanqiao to repent. You have completed one of Zhang Sanfeng’s requests!
As long as you can persuade Zhou Zhiruo to return to Emei Sect and enter isolated training, you will complete Zhang Sanfeng’s quest and receive Wudang Sect’s Nine Yang Skill!
Another step forward was taken in the quest.
Happy relaxed and released Song Qingshu to hand him over to Song Yuanqiao, then sat down cross-legged on the ground to circulate Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill to get rid of the residual sinister force of Heart Hastening Palm.
Happy!
Before Song Qingshu left, he could not help but turn his head around to ask a question.
You’ve clearly been hit by my Heart Hastening Palm, so why are you fine?
Even Song Yuanqiao looked at Happy with curiosity. He could sense the strangeness and might of Song Qingshu’s palm strikes, from which even he himself might not come out safe.
When did Happy obtain such power?
Happy said nothing for a time. He thought about it for a moment before he answered,
It’s best if you return to Wudang Sect and ask your master that question when you meet him. Reverend Zhang will naturally tell you the answer you want to know.
Such words were Happy adding another layer of security to his plan of sending Song Qingshu back. It would make sure that he would return to Wudang Mountain.
Based on his personality, he would definitely go to Zhang Sanfeng and ask for details.
And with Zhang Sanfeng’s experience gathered throughout his one hundred years of life, it would be impossible for him to not recognize the origins of Heart Hastening Palm.
Suddenly, a messenger pigeon flew through the air and landed on Happy’s shoulder.
