Five Banner Division was Ming Cult’s greatest strength, and they were filled with the strongest elites. All sorts of poison, large logs, ambushes from below and arrows, and fire attacks came at righteous faction. Five Banner Division’s attacks were not inferior to those of the special forces in reality. Their ability to move about with ease coupled with their attacks caused their combat prowess to be something that a bunch of misfits could not even dream of being able to handle.
The moment the people from Five Banner Division appeared, the tables were turned!
In the face of Five Banner Division’s impeccable teamwork, fierce attacks, and assassination strategies because of which they came and went like shadows, the players found themselves unable to fight back at all. Numerous corpses fell on the ground, and they were forced to retreat repeatedly.
Many players suffered a lot of setbacks on Emei Sect’s side. They either found their whole bodies burning because of the poison liquid that spread through the whole area, or they were heavily injured by the logs. Some also died because of arrows that came out of nowhere.
No one dared to stay for long at one spot.
The enemy was still in good condition.
If someone ran into Scorching Flame Banner, they would find their paths sealed up by flames. The enemy would then dip their arrows in black petroleum before they shot burning arrows. Most of the players will then burn to death without having any chance to run.
The Emei Sect disciples rushed to the front and quickly engaged the people from Five Banner Division in a fight.
However, the Five Banner Division was incredibly smart. They knew when to advance and retreat, and they did not give the disciples from Emei Sect the chance to break their formation. They left behind burnt corpses all over the ground and left through the tunnels.
When they lost their targets, the Emei Sect disciples felt as if their attacks had missed, and they were incredibly unhappy!
Happy knew that the people from Five Banner Division had incredibly terrifying explosive power, but they did not have the resources to engage them in a drawn out war. Once their skills became old and outside forces came charging at them, it would be very easy for something to grow wrong. The commander of Five Banner Flag should have been able to tell just how threatening Emei Sect was to Five Banner Sect, so they issued the order to retreat without hesitation.
If Happy wanted to break the formation, he and the others had to first kill the flag bearers hiding in the dark!
At that moment, the voices of the Emei Sect disciples reached his ears.
“They retreated right after we came.”
“Master, these evil scum are too cunning.”
When the disciples from Emei Sect stopped moving, they always gathered beside Mistress Annihilation. Once the people from the evil cult had retreated and disappeared without a trace, they felt angry and livid, so they gathered beside Mistress Annihilation.
When Happy saw that, he suddenly had a strong sense of fear and unease in his heart!
“Everyone, be careful!
“Be wary of the evil cult’s second ambush!”
Right when he finished speaking, a change occurred!
Thud! Thud!
The ground around them suddenly burst apart, and dozens of Five Banner Division members under Tidal Wave Banner shot out like cannonballs. Each of them carried a strange long tube on their backs. The black mouths of those tubes were aiming at the people from Emei Sect from all directions.
“Evil spawn!”
“Kill them!”
With Happy’s reminder serving as a warning, the Emei Sect disciples managed to react in time. However, those from Five Banner Division reacted incredibly quickly as well. Once Tidal Wave Banner appeared, they resolutely fired their poisonous liquid. All sorts of pungent liquids with great corrosive abilities spread through the area. It fell from the sky and landed on the Emei Sect disciples.
Great Earth Banner members appeared right after.
Each of them held weapons and shields, and they came rolling out of their tunnels like gourds to meet up with the Emei Sect disciples. When they swung their hands, they created a layer of white fog.
Whoosh, whoosh…
A large amount of lime powder was thrown into the air by Great Earth Banner members, and the battlefield instantly became even more chaotic. Lime powder filled the air and obstructed the Emei Sect disciples’ sight. A few of them were unlucky enough and lime powder seeped into their eyes. They screamed in pain and could only brace themselves to close their eyes and charge out.
It was all according to the Great Earth Banner members’ plans!
“Kill them!”
They tumbled forth and killed those they met!
Their movements were uniform, and they killed resolutely!
Many Emei Sect disciples’ curvaceous bodies were snapped apart, and they looked like broken twigs. They fell to the ground.
In the chaos, they first had their initiative to attack snatched by poison liquid. Then, they were ambushed by Great Earth Banner members who had their faces covered and used the confusion to get close to the Emei Sect disciples.
After that happened, the women lost their morale. They did not know where their opponents were, and they were killed without a clue of what happened.
Happy was also surrounded and trapped in the Great Earth Banner members’ attack zone, and he did not have an easy time.
He might have dodged the poison liquid, but the crude and despicable use of lime powder left him in trouble for some time. It affected a person’s sight by a large degree in a group battle. The qi around him was also chaotic, so he could not use his own qi to make good judgment of what was going on around him.
If it were not for the fact that Happy had been on guard since the beginning and brought out two Shadowless Knives to kill two Tidal Wave Banner disciples to deal with the problem of the poison liquid, his situation would have been even more dire.
Whoosh!
Happy activated Phantasm Body Movement Skill and rushed out of the encirclement at the fastest speed possible.
When he avoided the Great Earth Banner members’ attack and rushed out of the area covered with lime powder at full speed, he saw the situation outside the area, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
More than thirty pairs of cold gazes were fixed on Happy, along with a few that came from Emei Sect disciples who had managed to break out of the encirclement!
Both sides were very close to each other!
“Kill them!”
Nothing else was said. The thirty or so people tumbled on the ground, brought out their sharp scimitars, and went straight for their enemies’ lower bodies.
But Happy’s attention was not on those people.
There were more than thirty Great Earth Banner members, and among them were around a dozen Scorching Flame Banner members who were preparing pots that let out a pungent smell. Judging by their earnest and serious actions, it was not difficult to guess just how important those things were.
Petroleum!
There were also around a dozen Sharp Gold Banner members who had nocked bows guarding beside the Scorching Flame Banner members.
When Happy saw that, he understood the plan. More people would come out of the tunnels soon, which made it clear that Five Banner Division intended to get rid of all Emei Sect disciples right there and then
Happy could not let them succeed!
By the time he decided that, the few Great Earth Banner disciples had already killed the Emei Sect disciples.
Boom!
Happy swiftly activated Golden Bell Cocoon.
Five Great Earth Banner members delivered their attacks. Yet when they were about to break Happy’s skin, their arms were pushed back with such a powerful force that they became numb.
They staggered back, but before they could even take one step back, Happy drew his Noble Sword!
“Get lost!”
With a single sword shine, his sword glare rose into the air before thee five people could bring up their shields and activate body fortifications!
The four screamed in pain and fell back.
When the Great Earth Banner members suffered a setback, someone among the Sharp Gold Banner members gave an order.
“Sharp Gold Banner! Fire!”
An arrow shower pierced through the air.
The damage from the arrows of Life and Death Realm elites was not easy to withstand. Besides, every Sharp Gold Member was a great fighter. They definitely had Grandmaster Realm bow techniques, so their damage would not lose to a strike from a Moksha Realm martial artist.
Happy scowled and tapped against the ground. He executed Dragon Capture with his left hand and seized one of the injured Great Earth Banner members’ bodies. He then hid behind it from the arrows.
That person could only grunt, because he simply had no way of fighting back. He had to go up against the arrows of the Sharp Gold Banner members.
Thud! Thud!
All sorts of sounds came from a body being pierced through.
With the protection provided by the Great Earth Banner member’s corpse—who was most certainly dead by then—Happy charged at the Scorching Flame Banner.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two Soaring Eagle Swords split into six Soaring Eagle Swords in the air. They crashed violently into the Sharp Gold Banner members and interrupted their offense for a brief moment.
Happy seized that chance and charged more than thirty feet forward. He then jumped over the group of Sharp Gold Banner members’ heads.
The person who had given the order before shouted again. “Stop him! Our brothers from Scorching Flame Banner, spread out!”
The group switched to axes at the same time and spread out. They formed a pocket formation and surrounded Happy in the back to catch him inside. The person who gave the order even led the charge by displaying outstanding lightness skills.
Happy frowned. His gaze landed on that Sharp Gold Banner member, and he thought, ‘I didn’t expect to run into a Five Banner Division elite over here.’
