Sword Among Us Chapter 1130

Chapter 1130 - Sect Master of Sword Sect

“Where are we going?”

They originally thought that Happy was going to Lovely Land’s headquarters, but they did not expect that once they got on shore, Happy would rush northwest on horseback. Knife, Thunder, and Bar were about to go mad on the ship. When they saw that Silver Wolf still looked as aloof as ever and did not seem to want to speak, they were finally unable to withhold the puzzlement in their hearts, and they chased after Happy to ask this question.

“Heaven Mountain.”

All four of them were stunned silent, and they shuddered.

“Could there be some sort of quest at Heaven Mountain?”

Their eyes lit up. They immediately thought of their rewards at Song House.

“No.”

Happy’s answer caused them to feel a little disappointed.

Immediately after, Silver Wolf frowned. “There are not many training spots in the north, and there aren’t many ruins either. I think there’s only Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction at Heaven Mountain. Are we going there to hunt down normal spirit beasts?”

“Aren’t you looking for a shortcut to quickly boost up your qi cultivation realm? You’ll know when you get there.” Happy did not intend to reveal any news about Heaven Crystal.

After all, as of right now, he was not very close to Silver Wolf, but Heaven Crystal was of great importance, and he could not be careless about it

Silver Wolf and the other three looked at each other. They calmed down.

*****

After half a day, the party of five reached the foot of Heaven Mountain!

It was covered in white snow!

At that moment, Heaven Mountain seemed to have turned into a world made of ice crystals. The trees and ground were encased in a thick layer of ice, and it looked like a world straight out of a picture.

They braced the wind and snow, and the five people ran into the elites from Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction near Heavenly Lake.

“Who are you?!”

The Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples were wrapped up in white fur cloaks, and their gazes were sharp.

“I am Happy, disciple of Shaolin Temple. I wish to meet the faction master of Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction!”

“Our faction master is in isolated training right now. Those who have nothing to do with our faction and have no invitation card are not allowed to take even half a step closer to Heavenly Lake! All of you, please go back.” The Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciple who spoke said his words firmly. He did not consider Happy and his group with any importance at all.

Silver and his group frowned in silence. They stared at Happy in puzzlement.

Happy knew that with his current fame, it was not enough for him to lure out the faction master, much less shock these faction disciples. Besides, this was the first time he came to Heaven Mountain in this world. His tone immediately changed. “If that’s the case, I will not offend the faction master by bothering her. But I would like to ask a question of you two. Is the sect master of Sword Sect currently a guest in your faction?”

Sect master of Sword Sect?

Silver Wolf was dumbfounded.

Did Happy come to Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction in search for the sect master of Sword Sect?

Right when he had puzzlement appear on his face, with an observant eye, Silver Wolf saw that the expressions of the two Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples changed drastically when they heard Happy’s words.

The two disciples moved backward at the same time.

Clang! Clang!

They drew their longswords, and two cold longswords shining with silver light were directed at Happy. Both of them became murderous. “So, you came for that old thief from Sword Sect! Just who are you?!”

This time, it was Happy and his group who felt that the situation was baffling.

When did the sect master of Sword Sect turn into an old thief? Those from Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction sure knew how to exaggerate matters…

“Brothers, please calm down.” Happy put on a baffled expression and quickly explained. “I am from Shaolin Temple, and we do not have anything to do with the sect master of Sword Sect. We just want to ask him some things and have no other motives.”

“A disciple from Shaolin Temple?”

Their expressions became slightly more pleasant, but their tone was still as cold and curst as before. “How did you know that the old thief from Sword Sect is at Heaven Mountain? Just what is your goal for coming to Heaven Mountain?”

Even though Silver Wolf could not figure out what was going on right now, based on Happy and the two Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples’ reactions, the sect master of Sword Sect should be a crucial character in this entire affair.

“I’ll think of a way to lure them away.”

When he saw how aggressive the two Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples were, Silver Wolf had a thought appear in his head, and he sent a message to Happy.

Happy had been troubled by this as well.

When he was in the other world, he had Heaven Crystal and the plate from the master of Purple Bamboo Forest that allowed him to enter Heavenly Lake smoothly and meet the faction master.

But now, he had no connection with Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction’s faction master. It would not be so easy to forcefully come into contact with the series of quests related to Heaven Crystal.

For a period of time, Happy frowned, thinking about how he should handle this.

Once Silver Wolf’s message entered his ears, Happy quickly nodded in agreement.

No matter what, Silver Wolf was someone who had substantial power in Mu Clan. His wit and strength were both outstanding, and he definitely had a good plan.

“What should we do?”

“We’ll retreat first,” Silver Wolf said.

The group retreated until they were more than three hundred feet away under Silver Wolf’s signal. They hid themselves in a small mountain cave by the mountain path.

“Could you have Wandering Know-it-all figured out Sword Sect’s master’s current location?”

When he heard this, Happy said without hesitation, “I know where he is right now.”

“That makes things easy.” Silver Wolf turned to Knife. “Knife, Thunder, go and lure away the Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples. If you can’t do it, make them split up and kill them.” When he turned his head around, he saw Happy staring at him with a dumbfounded expression. He shrugged and said, “At most, we’ll have a bounty placed by Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction over our heads for a few days. It’ll be fine. What they do has nothing to do with us. We have to seize time and search for Sword Sect’s master for you.”

Happy found himself speechless.

But when he thought about how he was not close with Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction right now, he knew that he had no better way of entering Heavenly Lake, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

“Careful.”

“Alright.”

It was clear that this was not the first time Knife and Thunder did this. They grabbed their swords in great excitement and rushed out.

Half a minute later, the sounds of weapons clashing could be heard faintly in the wind and snow, along with the angry shouts from the Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction disciples. Their voices gradually faded into the distance.

“Let’s go!”

Silver Wolf, Happy, and Bar said nothing else and shot out of the mountain cave. With the fastest speed they could muster, they charged past the checkpoints the Sword of Heavenly Lake Factio disciples set up, and they left behind no footprints on the snow while they headed to the depths of Heavenly Lake.

*****

Heavenly Lake was huge. It was difficult to search for someone in this snow-filled land. However, Happy went to the spot where the faction master had once brought him to cleanse and suppress Heaven Crystal. It was the same spot as the place Wandering Know-it-all divined for him. He easily found a simple wooden house beside Heavenly Lake.

He found Sword Sect’s master sitting by a simple pier at a body of water near the wooden house. He was dressed in a straw raincoat, and there was a thin layer of ice on him.

Even though he put on a profound look as if he was really enjoying the quiet scenery and was not really fishing, Happy was still able to recognize Sword Sect’s master with just one glance.

*****

When he was fifteen feet away from Sword Sect’s master, Happy stopped moving, wrapped his fist in his palm, and greeted him.

“Senior…”

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the person in the straw raincoat raising a hand while his back was still turned to him. He made a motion telling Happy to wait for a moment and to remain quiet. The grace and elegance he revealed caused Happy and his group to freeze for a moment.

Silver Wolf and Bar’s eyes instantly gained a heated look!

His elegance, profound, and unfathomable air made him appear to be incredibly noble. He should be Sword Sect’s master, who Happy was searching for.

He was an elite who was at the later stage of Myth Realm!

If they ran into Sword Sect’s master in this place, then it meant that he definitely had an extraordinary question.

Neither of them spoke. They stood on either side of the pier and watched how Happy would trigger the quest.

“Senior.”

Happy did not seem to have seen Sword Sect’s master raise his hand and make his signal. He continued calling out to him.

Silver Wolf and Bar were slightly shocked.

Based on the normal procedures to trigger quests, should they not wait by the side quietly when they ran into Sword Sect’s master, since their qi cultivation realms were lower? Then, he would speak on his own because their sincerity touched him.

Silver Wolf said nothing. Under his surprised gaze, Happy called out to him again.

Sword Sect’s master was no longer able to continue to remain calm and unmoved as he sat at the pier with his straw raincoat. His awe-inspiring voice caused the snow-filled area to become even colder and harsher.

“Don’t you know that you are supposed to be quiet when someone is fishing? You don’t know the rules at all! Which sect did you come from?!”

Sword Sect’s master was angry!

Silver Wolf and Bar exchanged an anxious and worried look.

But Happy did not seem to be bothered. He took a step forward. His tone was as indifferent as before. “Senior, you’re truly hilarious. The fishing line is covered in ice. How are you supposed to fish? I have come willingly to take the bait.”

Silver Wolf and Bar were both stunned. It was only at that moment that they noticed that Sword Sect’s master had been sitting still at the snow-covered land. Not only was the surface of the lake sealed by ice to the point that it was smooth, even the fishing line was frozen because the temperature was too low. Forget about fishing, even if a fish took the bait, it was impossible for him to catch that fish.

“…You have a good eye.

Sword Sect’s master did not turn around, but his words meant that he had acknowledged Happy’s observational skills. It caused a slight rapport to appear between them.

“Which sect did you come from?”

“I am Happy of Shaolin Temple,” Happy answered in a neither modest nor arrogant manner.

“I see, you’re a disciple from Shaolin Temple. It’s no wonder, then…” Sword Sect’s master nodded. He still did not turn around, but his voice continued travelling forth. “This is an important place for Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction. Did you receive permission from the faction master of Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction to be able to come to this place?”

“No.”

“No?” Faint surprise finally appeared in Sword Sect’s master’s voice. “Based on what I know, those who did not receive permission but insist on moving around within the vicinity of Heavenly Lake will be treated as enemies by all the disciples of Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction.”

“That is true.”

“Aren’t you afraid?”

Happy’s answer caused Sword Sect’s master to be stunned.

Happy said in a mocking tone, “You’re the sect master of Sword Sect, but you did not receive permission from Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction to be here either. You’re already not afraid of being enemies with two great sects. I am just a normal, secular disciple of Shaolin Temple. I am alone in the world, there is nothing for me to be afraid of.”

Sword Sect’s master shuddered. He was finally unable to hold back from having his expression change. He turned around, and he fixed his burning and harsh gaze on Happy’s face. “How did you know that I am Sword Sect’s master?”

The full might of the pressure from a powerful elite in Myth Realm went to envelope Happy.

However, Sword Sect’s master had misjudged a little this time

Happy could remain safe and sound as well as composed even when he faced Evil King when he was One with the World, so he had no problems whatsoever in facing Sword Sect’s master, who had not even reached the peak of Myth Realm. He met the man’s gaze fearlessly and said calmly, “When I was going up the mountain, the disciples of Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction told me that the old thief of Sword Sect was here. I made a guess and came to the conclusion that it should be you.”

As he spoke, Happy looked at the fishing rod that Sword Sect’s master still refused to let go. “As expected of Sword Sect’s master. You are rich, and even your fishing rod is made of amethyst gold. Your fishing line is also made of wild silk that will not be harmed by water or fire. I wonder what you’re trying to fish here… Heh, if your fishing rod and fishing line are made of such extraordinary materials, just what sort of valuable bait did you use?”

Right when Happy said those words, Sword Sect’s master had his expression change drastically.
