Big Bro Young Li! BIG BRO YOUNG LI!


Whirlwind Young Li was focusing on feeding small white rabbits with Joined Finger at the backyard in the Murong Mansion. She suddenly heard someone call out to him while making a ruckus. He could not help but get up and stare at the person in surprise.
Didn’t you go and set up a stall at the market? Why are you back so quickly?


The person who came in while shouting was his junior brother, Wen Yuan, a normal player whose talent in the game was not really good. Just like him, they were not really outstanding in the Murong Clan, but they had wild dreams of getting ultimate techniques like Joined Finger and Shifting Stars.


Big Bro Young Li, come with me quick.


Wen Yuan pulled up Whirlwind Young Li in great excitement and headed outside.

The latter quickly stuffed that half stick of a carrot in his hand into the rabbit pen and opened the pen so that he could get out.
What do you want us to do? You’re so rash… Stop bothering me, I have a quest.



Senior brother, I want to bring you to meet someone.



To meet someone? Who exactly is so important? Don’t you see that I’m feeling rabbits here? Tell him that I’m not free. Also, what the heck happened to your clothes? You’re the one who can’t meet someone with how you look right now, right? Were you robbed?
Whirlwind Young Li sized up Wen Yuan. The boy was dressed in white underclothes. He looked like a real sleazy bastard.

It was only then that Wen Yuan noticed he had no proper clothes on.


I wasn’t robbed. I ran into something good.



Did you get into a love scam?



What the heck?! What in the world are you thinking of?!



Hurry up with it, then. You scared my rabbits, and if they don’t eat my carrots, I’m going to make you regret this…
Whirlwind Young Li continued his grand adventure of feeding the rabbits carrots.

Wen Yuan was so anxious that he rolled his eyes repeatedly, but when he saw that his senior brother did not seem to be bothered by what he said, he could do nothing else but start from the beginning.


Senior brother, just now, when I set up a stall in the market, I ran into someone strange. He says he knows you and wanted to buy my clothes—



I definitely don’t know that person.
Before Wen Yuan could even finish talking, Whirlwind Young Li interrupted him and said seriously,
Among the people I know, who would be stupid enough to buy your clothes? You’re just using second-echelon grade two equipment for the time being before you can slowly progress to better stuff, anyway…



That’s not the main point. At that time, I was worried that people will look down on me because of my equipment, that’s why I wore the normal clothes for the Murong Clan—



…I knew it, you got involved in a love scam.
Whirlwind Young Li sighed without even turning his head around.


Senior brother!
Wen Yuan was so indignant that his face turned red.


Alright, based on the fact that the first thing you thought about after you were humiliated, you can continue telling me your story…
Whirlwind Young Li held back his laughter and toyed with the rabbits.

At this moment, Wen Yuan found his temper completely gone. He was also released from his previously excited state.


That person says he knows you, and then, he bought my clothes and all the items in my stall. He gave me two million taels of silver.
Wen Yuan’s tone became much calmer, and when he mentioned money, his expression was also rather dark.
He says that he knows you, and when you come back, I was to give you something.


Whirlwind Young Li said nothing, but this time, he finally turned his head around.


Hmph. You sure are enthusiastic once you hear that something belongs to you,
Wen Yuan said angrily.

Whirlwind Young Li shook his head.
I’m just curious. How did you manage to sell that worn down garbage of yours for two million? One million is already pretty decent… I’m interested now. Who’s that idiot?



Don’t you want to know what he asked me to give you?


There was no need for Whirlwind Young Li to even guess, because Wen Yuan was already so excited that he brought out that item.


Demonic Black Sky Body… Are you joking with me, you brat?


But Whirlwind Young Li’s expression was extremely strange.

As of current, most of the normal first-class elites in the game were using Life and Death Realm body fortification techniques. Those who used Moksha Realm body fortification techniques all had certain statuses in the game.

Demonic Black Sky Body was rather famous, and it could be considered as a high-grade body fortification technique. Its value was around fifty million taels of silver, and it could be worth even higher. It was not something Whirlwind Young Li could buy, much less the person in front of him.

However, this just made Whirlwind Young Li not believe in Wen Yuan’s words.

Why would someone on the streets call out to Wen Yuan and buy a set of normal clothes for Murong Clan disciples, which were not worth more than one hundred taels of silver? Why did he use two million taels of silver to buy Wen Yuan’s trash, which was not even worth one million taels of silver? And he even found himself at an ease of mind to casually pass over a Demonic Black Sky Body, which was worth more than fifty million, to a stranger.

The first thing Whirlwind Young Li thought of was that Wen Yuan struck an unexpected deal, and then, in a fit of great excitement, decided to boast about it in front of him.


Senior brother, that person really told me to give this to you.



I can’t be bothered with you.
Whirlwind Young Li squatted down on the ground.

Slap!

That Demonic Black Sky Body landed beside Whirlwind Young Li.

When he sensed the meaning behind Wen Yuan’s actions, Whirlwind Young Li found his heart instantly burn with excitement. He slowly turned his head around and looked at the manual on the ground before he cast a glance at Wen Yuan, who looked incredibly serious.

A few minutes passed.


Take me to him.


Whirlwind Young Li put away that Demonic Black Sky Body. Then, with Wen Yuan, who was still dressed in white underclothes, they rushed out of the Murong Mansion to head to the market.



However, what surprised the duo was that when they found the young stall owner, Whirlwind Young Li found himself rendered speechless, because he discovered that he had no impression whatsoever of the person.

He had never met him before!

But Whirlwind Young Li noticed to his surprise that the atmosphere of the trio standing in front of the stall was strange, and immediately, he got closer to the stall with Wen Yuan quietly.

Whirlwind Young Li soon understood the confrontation between the four people.

Even though he did not know what the four were fighting over, because of Demonic Black Sky Body, Whirlwind Young Li naturally stood on the young stall owner’s side.

When he heard the young stall owner talk about the uses of the items in the stall and how he talked about them with such great familiarity, Whirlwind Young Li had a feeling that this person might truly be from the Murong Clan and might really know him.

‘Is he wearing a human skin mask?’

Whirlwind Young Li squashed down the excitement and curiosity in his heart.

When he continued listening to the conversation, Whirlwind Young Li noticed some clues, and when the young stall owner mentioned that he had the governor in the city supporting him, Whirlwind Young Li and Wen Yuan were clearly stunned.

The governor in the city was just in the house one courtyard away, but the talk about the house housing a few Myth Realm elites was plain nonsense.

The governor’s house did not have any Myth Realm elites, and the ones who were in charge of hunting down criminals were all sent by Six Doors.

‘This guy is spewing nonsense.’

At the moment the duo looked at each other and smiled, something unexpected happened!

At that moment, Whirlwind Young Li’s breathing froze!

The entire process of the young stall owner attacking to crush Golden Rakkhasa’s neck was done in the blink of an eye, and he succeeded in killing him within an instant. Golden Rakkhasa’s neck was crushed like brittle wood, and a piercing sound of bones being crushed rose. Then, his head tilted to the side in an abnormal manner.

At the same time, Happy already seized Flame Wolf’s neck with his other hand.

However, Flame Wolf was clearly much more wary than Golden Rakkhasa. Even though he was seized by Happy, he had already activated his body fortification, and right when Happy tried to crush him, the force in his grip turned into a power that knocked him back.


Urk


He grunted, and Flame Wolf’s expression was very dark. He staggered backward in an incredibly pathetic manner.

The neck was always an easy part of the human body to be injured.

Even though he activated his body fortification to block the young stall owner’s determined and fatal attack, when he was forced back, the force in it still nearly injured his windpipe.

He used the momentum to retreat, and he had difficulty breathing. His face was a purplish hue, and he temporarily lost his ability to attack.

The young stall owner had instantly killed one and injured another person out of three elites. His lightning fast attack caused the players around him to be shocked and retreat.


I knew it, it’s you!


Bloody Hell Saber reacted to the situation. When he saw Flame Wolf and Golden Rakkhasa’s situation, his expression turned incredibly dark.


You actually dared attack in a city!


The one who launched the fierce attack was indeed Happy.

When he saw Bloody Hell Saber position his saber horizontally over his chest while he stood in front of Flame Wolf, Happy sighed in his heart. Then, his gaze became clear.
Why wouldn’t I dare?


Then, without hesitation, he tore off the human skin mask he obtained from Wind Chimes and revealed his true face.


Happy!


The people around them cried out in surprise.

Whirlwind Young Li and Wen Yuan were both dumbfounded.

‘What’s going?

‘Happy?’

The person who gave Whirlwind Young Li Demonic Black Sky Body was the super elite Happy, who was discussed fervently among the people over this period of time.



Naturally Happy had long since recognized Whirlwind Young Li. However, right now, he knew that this was not the time to speak, and it was not convenient for him to speak either.

Under Bloody Hell Saber’s protection, Flame Wolf’s face turned red with rage. His expression turned so savage that his features were nearly twisted together. He glared at Happy viciously.
Ha… I thought that Wandering Know-it-all didn’t want to take revenge, so I didn’t expect that he still sent someone here! Looks like we’ve been set up by Wandering Know-it-all a long time ago. He set a trap over here and waited for us to fall into it.


Happy gave no comment about this.

He originally did not have a high chance of winning against two elites at the peak of Inaction Realm and whose strength was not at all inferior to Blood Robes if he fought against them head on. It was precisely because of their paranoia that they fell for his trap.

However, when the others heard this news, they felt that as if a truck had rammed into them. They avoided the battlefield like the plague and looked shocked while they sized up Happy.

‘Wandering Know-it-all?

‘What relationship does Happy have with Wandering Know-it-all?’

Many people had countless questions pop up in their heads, and that included Whirlwind Young Li, who could not help but ask Wen Yuan to pinch him so that he could check whether he was dreaming.


I have no choice. It’s because you Wild Wolves are too famous and too wicked. You won’t even spare the disciple of someone as kind as Wandering Know-it-all. This time, I just can’t let this slide, which is why I agreed to help Wandering Know-it-all to help kill you.
Happy chose the perfect timing to toss out an even more astonishing piece of news.

Countless gazes were instantly trained on Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber!

Wild Wolves…

Many people had their expressions change on the spot.

Wild Wolves used threats, coercion, assassination, and other despicable methods to monopolize many of the resources from a lot of sects in the world, and this matter had long since been known through the entire world. Only the Chinese server was not affected by it, and this was something that the Chinese prided themselves with, but at the same time, it was the topic that they found was the most sensitive to them.

When they heard that Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber were both from Wild Wolves, the players around the area instantly understood what was going on.

‘No wonder why their equipment is so good…’

‘So, they’re from Wild Wolves…’

‘Their goal for coming here into the Chinese server this time is to fight against Wandering Know-it-all and our elites here!’

‘Damn them!’

‘A good thing the other guy died…’

‘If that’s the case, is Happy currently working with Wandering Know-it-all to fight against Wild Wolves?’

Within a moment, a whole slew of thoughts raced through the surrounding players’ heads.

Very soon, a deep hatred for the same enemy rose within each player’s body.

‘What a cunning brat.’ Flame Wolf scowled, and his heart was full of anxiety.

If Wandering Know-it-all was the one who exposed them, they were not afraid, because Wandering Know-it-all could only at most make those elites from large sects come over, because if a person who stood at a high position in the game called out to the players, normal players will usually ignore it because of various emotions.

And then, the three Wild Wolves could beat Wandering Know-it-all at his own game and earn some money from their kills.

But Happy stirred up the normal players’ emotions and turn their hatred on them because he was not attached to any sect but had fame, reputation, and strength, and was also at Moksha Realm. He was the perfect representation of the general player.

Happy naturally saw everything, and he expected that Flame Wolf and Bloody Hell Saber would definitely begin trying to break out of the encirclement when the elites from Six Doors arrive. He picked up the items Golden Rakkhasa dropped due to the Killer Star effect, put them into his Universe Bag, and charged at the duo with his body lowered.

Whoosh!

He moved as fast as lightning.

But Bloody Hell Saber swung his saber at an even faster speed.

However, perhaps it was because of his trauma when they fought against each other at Common Reed Land, Bloody Hell Saber immediately activated his qi realm fully, used his body fortification, and even executed defensive stances. His saber continued rotating around him with a fierce saber momentum, and it made him like a hedgehog, which allowed him to protect himself.

Flame Wolf was still in a great state of discomfort and could not attack. While Bloody Hell Saber protected him, he held onto an item and did not dare attack readily.

That was because there was something that caused him to be wary—the Myth Realm elites in Gusu City.

The item in his hand was naturally able to kill Happy, but once he fired it and hurt the others, it will be difficult for him to leave the Chinese server.

Right now, he could only rely on Bloody Hell Saber to continue fighting off Happy’s attacks and stall for time while he waited for the Myth Realm elites to appear.

But what he did not know was that Happy had already seen through his thoughts.

Once Happy was certain that Flame Wolf would not casually use a demon vessel with high damage, Happy made his decision to kill both in one go. After all, the only one who was using his full strength right now was just Bloody Hell Saber.

If Bloody Hell Saber fought against him while retaining his usual composure, Happy might have to spend a little more time and effort to win against him. Right now, the shadow of his former defeat loomed over him, and that was why he used a defensive fighting style. That was basically the same as him showing his safe to a thief.

Coincidentally, Happy had extraordinary knowledge when it came to breaking moves.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Four steps. Four slashes.

With each step, he sent a wave of hidden force forward. With each slash, he executed the full might of Great Demonic World Destruction Art. They went attacking four weak spots in Bloody Hell Saber’s saber momentum.

Happy was able to release his attacks within a short period of time, but Bloody Hell Saber was not able to lock down all the attacks coming at him in an instant.

Two of the attacks were above and below Bloody Hell Saber. One of it was closest to him, and the last was the furthest all. All of these attacks were connected together!

A grunt rose.

Then, Happy knew that Bloody Hell Saber used his saber to block those four slashes, but in return, he was attacked by those four hidden forces.

His body was injured, and it was inevitable that his moves froze up, and his openings became even more obvious.

The black flames charged into the saber momentum with an indomitable spirit, and a few bloody gashes were left behind on Bloody Hell Saber’s face.

Happy drew close.

At that moment, a savage look appeared on Bloody Hell Saber’s face, as if his scheme had worked.

Boom!

An astonishing black flame gushed out of Flame Wolf’s body while he remained behind Bloody Hell Saber.

The frenzied and hot black flames instantly increased the temperature in the area by a large degree.

Flame Wolf suddenly regained his mobility, and he looked smug. He spread his arms wide, and a restraining force bound Happy tightly.

An aura!

Happy was shocked.


Die!


Once the pressure on him was reduced, Bloody Hell Saber laughed loudly, and without another word, he swung his saber to cut Happy down! Their teamwork was so flawless that it looked as if they had practiced this millions of times before.

In an instant, the saber-generated wind arrived in front of Happy.
