In the ancient tomb.
Once Happy finished circulating his qi and released a messenger pigeon in a grandiose manner, Sinless in Light and Dark was finally unable to suppress the curiosity and fighting spirit in his heart. He whispered an order and walked forward.
He was dressed in black armor and had two shortswords. This sort of attire was very unique and eye-catching in World of Martial Arts. Besides, the three swords' equipment were not ordinary items. When he walked, metal clanged against metal, and he gave off a faint sense of pressure.
But what caused Light and Dark's expression to become stern was that while he could remain calm and relaxed when he faced the hundreds of archers from Purple Sun Sect and even released his aura, the young man sensed a faint, dangerous presence the closer he got to the ancient tomb. It was as if the aura he had deliberately created was reflected back to him in a relaxed manner.
When he was fifteen feet away from them, the young man still did not look them in the eye. He looked elsewhere, as if a Dirt Puppet not too far away could attract his attention.
"…"
Light and Dark stood not too far away from Happy. He felt indignant because of Happy's indifferent attitude. He sucked in a breath to calm himself down before he took the initiative to speak.
"You're Happy?"
At that moment, there were not many players who knew about the small-scale offline martial arts tournament, and since there were very few Blessed Realm players who joined, it did not attract a lot of attention.
He looked up and nodded.
Happy's indifferent reaction made Light and Dark speechless again. In fact, he had a strong urge to look at himself in the mirror. 'Did the Enforcer become harmless?'
"Are you here for the jade slit ring?" Happy finally asked. He looked up and cast a glance at the sect emblem on Light and Dark's chest. He frowned, and his tone could not be considered friendly.
However, Light and Dark could sense a clear hint of pressure from Happy's straightforward words. His tone sank.
"That jade slit ring belongs to Life Ending Hall. If it's convenient for you, please return it to me."
"What if I don't?"
Happy still had that indifferent expression on his face. He looked as if he did not know what Life Ending Hall was.
Light and Dark laughed coldly.
"If that's the case, I'll have to ask for your guidance."
"You alone?"
Happy cast a faint glance at the person behind Sinless in Light and Dark. "Or you can come at me together."
"If it's just against you, there's no need for that." Light and Dark stared into Happy's eyes, and their gazes gradually turned hostile. While he touched the shortsword at his waist, he cast a seemingly unintentional glance at Thunderous Battle, who was not too far away from him.
At that moment, Thunderous Battle was worried that Happy would be alone, so he had already stood up with his hand on his sword and walked over with a stern expression.
"If he's included, it's hard to say."
Sinless in Light and Dark's face revealed a hint of coldness.
"If that's the case …"
Under the solemn gazes of the people from Life Ending Hall, Happy leaned forward and stood up. "Let's not waste each other's time. Let's attack, Big Brother Thunder."
Thunderous Battle was not too far away. When he heard it, he immediately stopped and nodded.
It was only then that Sinless in Light and Dark retracted his gaze. Clang, clang. Two clear sounds rang out, and two dazzling blue halos spun out of his shortswords. They landed in his hands confidently, one in front of the other behind him, and he went into a posture of inviting Happy to fight.
Based on the brightness of the light, Happy and Thunderous Battle could tell that the man should have a high-tier sword technique that was at the eighth realm. If they were to talk about the level of high-tier martial arts alone, his strength would be above Happy's.
Thunderous Battle cast Happy a worried glance, but he did not find a single hint of panic or solemnity on his face.
Whoosh!
He raised his hand without any flashy movements, and wherever his gaze landed, his Hundred-battle Saber pointed horizontally at Sinless in Light and Dark. His tone was cold. "This time, I will not go overboard, but if anyone comes to me because of the jade slit ring again … Hmph!" When he said this, Happy swallowed the words that were already at the tip of his tongue and turned them into a cold snort. To him, there was no need for him to say the second half of the sentence in his heart. If he said it out loud, others would think that he was boasting endlessly.
However, the person who said it did not mean it, but the person who heard it did.
When his words reached Sinless in Light and Dark's ears, they turned into unforgivable contempt.
Before the two of them even started fighting, Happy had already put on the posture of a victor.
"We'll talk after you win against me!"
With an enraged shout, Sinless in Light and Dark turned into an afterimage and vanished from the spot. He was so fast that Thunderous Battle's expression changed while he watched the fight.
As for Happy, he did not panic. He lifted his Hundred-battle Saber diagonally.
A dazzling blue saber glare sliced through the air, and the sound of air being torn rose. The dangerous saber glare instantly locked down most of the space in front of Happy, and it just so happened to force the black figure who had appeared two feet away to stagger backwards.
Clang!
His two shortswords blocked the Hundred-battle Saber's slash at a critical moment. Sinless in Light and Dark's face was filled with shock and astonishment. All along, he was most proud of his footwork, which was fused with assassination techniques. When he exploded forth, he could instantly get close to his enemies and deal damage to them.
He did not expect that he would be able to break it so easily.
But that was not all.
The seventh realm Flowering Knights' Song might not be as good as the God Slaying Sword Technique, which focused on assassination, but the domineering power contained in each of its attacks was not something shortswords could compare to.
He was forced back along with his sword.
Sinless in Light and Dark staggered backwards!
Happy's gaze focused.
He spun around resolutely.
He swung his saber diagonally, and with the ingenious spinning motion, his Hundred-battle Saber drew a blue circle in the air that looked as if it was formed by nature! With the remaining power, he released an even stronger and faster force! He caught up to the black figure who staggered backwards as fast as lightning.
Shick!
Terrifying sparks erupted from the sturdy black metal armor. Before Sinless in Light and Dark could regain his balance while he staggered backwards, he was sent tumbling a few feet away by the even stronger force.
Bang!
Sinless in Light and Dark tumbled to the ground.
"Hall master!"
"Sinless Hall Master!"
The people from Life Ending Hall were shocked, and they were dumbfounded. They could not believe that their vice hall master, who had always appeared in front of them as a God of War, would lose in just one exchange.
Even though he was heavily injured, Sinless in Light and Dark did not lose the alertness and nimbleness he should have. He rolled on the ground in an incredibly pathetic manner, and once he retreated a few feet away, he noticed that Happy had not moved a single step. He did not seize the chance to catch up to him.
But to Sinless in Light and Dark, Happy's lack of chase after him was an even greater blow to his confidence. He lost in just one move, and Happy did not even have the desire or intention to chase after him. Just how much did he look down on him?
His face alternated between shades of red and white, but in the end, he did not continue attacking.
At that moment, the people from Life Ending Hall surged into the hall with the same hatred they had for their enemy. They drew their weapons and stared at Happy with hostile gazes. They looked as if they would attack and destroy him the moment they gave the order.
"All of you, go back!"
Sinless in Light and Dark ordered the people to retreat and breathed for a few breaths. He touched the burning saber mark on his black armor before he looked up at Happy.
"Now, I finally understand why the people from Purple Sun Sect did not dare to take revenge on you." He stopped talking for a moment, but when he saw that Happy did not have the expression of a victor on his face, he frowned and sighed. "You won. In the future, as long as I'm around, Life Ending Hall will not cause trouble to you. Let's go!"
With one order, the incredibly desolate Sinless in Light and Dark led his group of people away. Not a single one of them was left.
