In a wide sect prison were two white figures intersecting continuously with a black figure.
Whoosh! Shing!
Two longswords somersaulted and flew in the air, as if they were controlled by someone’s arms. They brought with them layers of sword shadows and intersected with each other and deftly created a sword net.
In less than five minutes, the sword net was basically complete.
The longswords flew about back and forth and continuously strengthened the density as well as sharpness in the sword net. They repeatedly left more wounds on the black figure.
The black figure’s movement space was also gradually limited and became smaller. He had to activate his body fortification and use defensive skills to block the attacks from the two elusive longswords.
When he saw this, Five Venoms’ master slowly had a solemn look dawn on his face while he stood outside the sect prison. The person inside was an elite at the beginning stage of Myth Realm. He was a criminal they caught through much effort after working with their Embroidered Uniform Guards friends.
Even though the two white figures were fighting two against one, many of the top-class elites currently in the game could not suppress a Myth Realm martial artist so easily and swiftly, forcing him to only be able to fend for himself.
What Five Venoms’ master could not accept the most was that the masters of the two longswords in the prison seemed to not have used their full power. They looked incredibly relaxed. In fact, there was faint regret and disappointment on their faces.
‘Weak! Too weak!’
When he remembered how the two had mentioned that his headquarters was now a place where they would prioritize protecting, Five Venoms’ master had his face turn red. He finally understood that these two did indeed have the qualifications to be arrogant.
“Oh well. Enough, if you continue, I’m afraid this guy is going to lose a few limbs.”
“What a disappointment.”
As a cold and clear voice belonging to a woman rose in the prison cell, the sword net surrounding the black figure swiftly disappeared.
The longswords instantly landed in the two women’s hands, like sentient rays of light.
Clang!
The longswords returned to their sheaths, and there was no presence of them being involved in any sort of battle just now.
The black figure showed keen sense by not chasing after them. Instead, he stared at the two powerful enemies with a grave look in his eyes while he retreated to a corner with a dark expression.
The two women were cold beauties. Their bodies were voluptuous and curvaceous, but those traits were covered by the bone-chilling air they exuded.
“Why is the area outside so noisy?” someone asked.
She was Immortal, one of the two beauties of Wild Wolves who were temporarily staying at Five Venoms and had been training in their sect prison for half a month.
Her name might make her sound weak, but the presence she exuded was the complete opposite. It was cold and aggressive, and wherever she looked, her gaze could freeze things over.
The woman who stood beside Immortal looked coquettish, but her hair was splayed around her shoulders, and half her face was covered. It made her other side appear incredibly dark, and she was like a female Rakkhasa who was constantly scheming against someone, making those who saw her feel chills down their bones.
These words were naturally directed to Five Venoms’ master.
Even though Five Venoms’ master was considered one of the top-class elites in the Chinese server, before Peach Blossom and Immortal, he always felt a chill run down his spine, and he was terrified before them.
When he heard this, he answered quickly, fearing that he would end up inattentive if he was the slightest bit late. “I reckon that it’s just another group of victims who gathered together to cause trouble at my headquarters. They truly deserve to die for bothering the both of you, but I believe that this will pass soon.”
There was a slightly embarrassed tone in his voice, but there was a unique arrogance when he reached the latter half of his sentence.
“Hmph!” Immortal snorted coldly before she looked away. “Five Venoms sure is talented in this area. You aren’t strong, but you’re always provoking others. Even so, you still managed to stand your ground in the Chinese server.”
Over the past few days, there had been various sorts of people who came to attack Five Venoms regardless of the costs every day, but this was still the first time that they caused such a huge ruckus.
However, when they heard the explanation from Five Venoms’ master, they felt at ease.
Five Venoms’ master smiled bashfully and said nothing.
The noise lasted for around half a minute before a messenger pigeon flew in from outside.
The master of Five Venoms frowned.
Usually, he handed the management of trivial matters to his two vice sect masters. Unless there was something incredibly important to deal with, they would not send a messenger pigeon to him.
“By the looks of it, Five Venoms isn’t as strong as you mentioned.”
Immortal and Peach Blossom were both very observant people. They quickly realized that the messenger pigeon should be related to the noise outside, and they were unable to help themselves but mock the sect master.
However, even if he was the sect master of Five Venoms, when he faced the mocking words from those two women, he did not dare show them even the slightest bit of temper. He just smiled at them in an obsequious manner, though his expression was a little stiff. Then, he lowered his head to read the letter.
His pupils shrank, and he fell silent.
Something had indeed happened!
Immortal and Peach Blossom had been paying attention to the sect master’s expression. The clear flash of surprise in his eyes did not escape from their eyes. “Sect master, you seem to run into trouble. Do you mind telling us what happened?”
Peach Blossom took one step forward with a dark tone in her voice. Her sharp gaze pierced through the gaps of the hair falling over her face and were fixed on the sect master.
Five Venoms’ master sucked in a deep breath before he answered with a complicated tone, “Happy has made his way here.”
Silence.
Immortal and Peach Blossom were shocked at the same time.
“Were our identities revealed?”
Five Venoms’ master was shocked, and he quickly denied the fact. “That shouldn’t be the case. Only the hall master and I know that you’ve come to Five Venoms, and it’s only natural that the news has not leaked outside. My members are also people I’ve chosen carefully, so absolutely nothing could have happened about your arrival in this place.”
“Then why did Happy come here on his own?”
“In truth, Five Venoms was the one in charge of attacking Happy and making him delete his character and quit the game.” Five Venoms’ master confessed.
“You?” The two women exchanged a skeptical glance.
Five Venoms’ master smiled in anguish and tore the letter in his hands. “Happy might have come here on his own this time to completely destroy us to take revenge for the number of times we killed him in the ambush. I don’t have time to talk about this in detail with you. I have to gather my members together to defend the headquarters.”
“We’ll go with you.” Immortal stated succinctly.
Peach Blossom immediately nodded. “I was troubled by the fact that I couldn’t go to Ghost’s Domain to look for him. Since he came here himself, we’ll have the chance to witness the elite who defeated Flame Wolf and his party and who also gained Wandering Know-it-all’s favor. I’d like to see just how strong he is… If he’s not that good, we’ll kill him today and go back.”
“But isn’t your goal Wandering Know-it-all’s disciple, Wind Chimes? Are you sure this is okay?” But Five Venoms’ master was secretly delighted.
In truth, he was not confident that he could defeat Happy either. After all, Happy was someone who had defeated Sky Demon Branch with a full frontal assault, and the defense in Sky Demon Branch was not inferior to Five Venoms’ headquarters in Yangzhou.
“Last time, we’ve already alerted them. It’s already impossible for us to attack Wind Chimes again. Besides, this time, Happy took the initiative to attack your headquarters, and it’s only natural that it’s not convenient for us to attack him right now. But from now onwards, he won’t be able to escape from our sight. Once he gets out of the city, he will die.”
The master of Five Venoms was instantly dumbfounded, and he found that all the delight he sensed just now was useless.
Without the help from the two Wild Wolves, Five Venoms might have to pay quite the great sacrifice this time.
*****
While he was filled with uncertainty as to what he should do, Five Venoms’ master quickly had someone immediately send his order to have the top one hundred elites in Five Venoms immediately return to the headquarters to provide reinforcements. During that time, he led Immortal and Peach Blossom away from the sect prison.
But who knew, when they got out of the sect prison, the trio quickly realized to their shock that at some point of time, the cries for murder outside had stopped.
“Could it be that Happy fled?”
Five Venoms’ master was dumbfounded, but he did not notice that there was another meaning to Immortal and Peach Blossom’s shocked expressions.
“Sect master, be careful. The stench of blood is heavy.”
Peach Blossom wrinkled her nose before she reminded Five Venoms’ master of this fact.
When the trio walked out of the back yard, they heard a heavy, thudding sound come from the hall. They were like thunderclaps.
“The foundation!”
The sect master’s expression instantly turned incredibly sour. “Those trash! How could they let Happy rush into the headquarters so quickly?!”
“Sect master, it’s best that we hurry over to see what is going on. I have a feeling that the situation is worse than you imagined it to be.”
Peach Blossom and Immortal could already tell that the situation was bad based on the stench of blood that filled the air. They reminded him of this with serious expressions.
Five Venoms’ master did not waste his breath any longer.
The trio hurried to the left of the hall through the winding corridor.
“This is…”
Before they even got close, the trio already saw that the hall was full of corpses.
There were corpses from humans, along with the shattered remains of snakes, scorpions, and venomous insects.
A foul stench filled the entire headquarters of Five Venoms.
When they arrived at the hall, the trio were completely stunned by the scene they saw before them.
There were more than one thousand Five Venoms members’ corpses scattered all over the huge floor in the hall.
Blood was everywhere.
Once the trio stopped moving, they immediately felt a fierce gaze fixed on them.
They looked in the direction of the gaze, and the trio saw a familiar figure.
He held a sword in his hands and stood alone on the stairs leading in the hall to Five Venoms, which was near the foundation of the sect. There were corpses all around him, and blood dyed the jade white stairs red.
“Sect Master Proud!” Happy called out to Five Venoms’ master as if he was calling out to an old friend.
In the other world, Proud over All Life was already forced to delete his character by Happy and replay the game before the game even reached its first anniversary. Even so, he was an enemy who had never shown himself in front of Happy again.
It was also precisely because of this reason that when Happy stared at Proud over All Life, there was no anger or killing in his gaze. The only thing in his gaze was a strange amusement that caused both Proud over All Life and even Happy himself to feel puzzled over.
“Happy!” Proud over All Life was not in a very good mood right now.
He looked around the hall.
In just a moment, Five Venoms lost more than one thousand people.
Happy’s strength seemed to have become even more terrifying than before!
This caused Proud over All Life to immediately think of what happened to Sky Demon Branch. His pupils shrank while he stared at Happy and did not move.
“Sect Master Proud, you have quite the luck with the opposite sex, it seems, but it appears that these two ladies are not elites from Five Venoms…” Happy’s gaze moved over Proud over All Life’s face.
Immortal and Peach Blossom said nothing.
When they came over, they put a human skin mask over their faces. Even though it managed to change their appearance quite decently, when they opened their mouths and spoke, their voices would not be able to deceive others.
They did not want to reveal Wild Wolves’ relationship with Five Venoms so soon, and they absolutely could not reveal that there was any sort of connection between Wild Wolves and Class One Hall.
“Happy, what are your intentions for coming to Five Venoms this time?!”
Proud over All Life was terrified. He immediately increased his volume to divert Happy’s attention.
“Sect Master Proud, is your vision really that poor?”
Once Happy finished speaking, he lifted the black Recondite Steel Heavy Sword in his hands, and right before Proud over All Life’s enraged gaze, he struck the foundation without holding back.
Clang!
The foundation shuddered madly.
The entire stairs even seemed to be trembling furiously.
Happy then stared at Proud over All Life’s pale face, and he said with a faint smile, “Sect Master Proud, do I have to make myself clearer?”
