Once he accepted the quest, Happy bade farewell to the governor and strolled around Gusu City.
First, he went to the ironsmith shop and took five sets of exquisite and small Iron Hook Flying Ropes. Each of them could bear the weight of several adult men, and they were thirty feet long. They were sturdy and sturdy. Then, he went to the weapon shop next door and bought another ten sets of lancet knives before he rushed to the sundry shop to buy a few bags of lime powder.
He stuffed all the items into his Universe Bag, picked up his sword, and left Gusu City to head to Cold Mountain Temple.
In truth, while the request from the governor was troublesome, it was not very dangerous. Even if Small Reversion Pill did not attract him, Happy would have accepted the quest.
The quest this time was to deal with two powerful martial artists at the peak of Gate Realm. The governor had also clearly stated that he could not alert them, which meant that he could not summon reinforcements. However, he could decide the time and location. Since he had the advantage of timing and location, the rest would depend on his tactics.
Happy chose to walk through crowded places. When he reached the foot of Cold Mountain Temple, he saw Qian Kunzi running over in a white warrior's robe. There was a faint red flush on his face due to his excitement.
"Senior Brother Happy!
"You're here? I'll have to trouble you again. "
"I'm just doing a quest here. When I heard that you were coming, I immediately came over. After all, I'm just going to accompany you. It won't take up any time."
Qian Kunzi welcomed him with an incredibly cheerful smile.
In truth, Happy had already sent a messenger pigeon to him and told him about the quest. What he needed to do was to accompany Happy for a short period of time. Before he found a suitable battlefield, he had to stay by Happy's side! He did not want to give the head tomb robber and second tomb robber the chance to attack him.
They exchanged a few simple sentences before they changed directions and went into the forest.
Due to the unique requirements of the quest, it was best for Happy to fight against the two tomb robbers in a complicated and uninhabited place. Cold Mountain Temple was a good choice. Usually, not many people would come there. The forest was very deep, and normal players were not willing to enter an area where wolves roamed.
Before long, Qian Kunzi walked out of the forest and returned to the main road alone. There was a dejected expression on his face. He stood outside in puzzlement for a long time before he shook his head and walked into the distance.
Along the way, other than accompanying him, he really didn't help at all.
He followed behind and watched Happy do all sorts of things, but he could not understand what was going on. He only saw Happy hanging bags of lime powder high up on the tree, and the distance between each point was not too far. Then, everything ended in a baffling manner. If Happy had not sternly warned him repeatedly to immediately leave the forest and run far away, he might have really stayed outside to see what was going on.
"…"
The not-so-dark forest quickly quietened down.
A blue-robed youth stood proudly in the forest. His eyes were closed, and his expression was serene. He was like an old monk in meditation, quietly, not moving at all.
The cries of birds, beasts, and insects gradually became louder.
Happy did not show any signs of being restless. He was completely immersed in the subtle serenity.
Not long after …
The birds, beasts, and insects that had gotten used to the blue-robed teenager's presence became calm once more. An abnormal atmosphere rose in the forest.
Swoosh …
A barely discernible breeze swept up the fallen leaves on the ground, and the dust that was stirred up made the corners of his robes flutter. It startled the teenager who was resting with his eyes closed. He opened his eyes, and his gaze was as sharp as an arrow. He looked in the direction of the wind.
"Who is it?"
Before his voice faded away, the sound of robes fluttering suddenly rose from a spot not too far away from him.
A cold snort traveled into the air!
Then, Happy saw a person slowly walk out from behind the tree where the sound came from. His long and cold eyes made him look as if he was looking at a dead person.
"As expected of a disciple from the Murong Clan. You do have some skill.
"Unfortunately, this time, regardless of whether the information from the Murong Clan is accurate or not, since my third died because of you, today will be the day you die!"
Those ghastly words made Happy's final judgment.
Happy quickly recognized that the person was the leader of the tomb robbers from that night.
Right when he was about to speak, faint footsteps suddenly came from behind him! Happy frowned and quickly turned to the side. A man in black in tight-fitting clothes walked out from behind another tree with two shortswords in his hands. His eyes were red, and he stared at Happy with killing intent. His footsteps were heavy and slow, and he seemed to have formed a pincer attack with the person in front of him.
"You're the one who killed my brother! Today, I will definitely skin you alive! " Second Tomb Robber gritted his teeth. His gaze was fierce, as if he wanted to immediately attack and tear the murderer into pieces to take revenge for his third brother.
'I knew it!'
Happy's heart sank. He did not dare to be negligent. He carefully and slowly drew out his Noble Sword.
Right now, he had already lured the person out. What was left was the most important.
Clang!
At the moment Happy drew his Noble Sword, a clear whine traveled into the distance.
"Kill them!"
The leader and second vanished from the spot at the same time.
Even though martial artists at the peak of Gate Realm could not be considered as elites, powerful tomb robbers who walked outside of people's sights had their own unique ways to protect themselves.
Happy did not panic. He grabbed his waist and flung his arm!
Whoosh!
A silver hook spun in the air a few times, and with a thud, it latched onto a tree to his left. With a swing, he jumped up. Not only did Happy manage to avoid the leader's fierce and swift slash in time, he also tapped against the ground repeatedly and rose nonstop. In an instant, he appeared on a tree that was more than thirty-two feet tall. His movements were very smooth and familiar, as if he had practiced it countless times before.
"Where do you think you're going?!"
The leader and second clearly did not expect that Happy would have such an ability. Once they recovered from their shock, they roared, exerted force in their legs, and jumped up at the same time!
Whoosh!
Both of them closed in on Happy, who was on the tree.
Happy was not shocked. Instead, he smiled.
He had long since put away his Noble Sword into his Universe Bag. He turned around, and a large amount of white powder fell from the sky. It covered his face, and it instantly went to the two tomb robbers who had used lightness skills to chase after him.
"It's lime powder! Shameless! "
"Big brother, careful!"
They had nothing to use in the air, and when they saw that the lime powder had covered their faces, they roared and closed their eyes at the same time. They swung their weapons repeatedly in an attempt to chase away the gray fog in front of them.
But they did not know that at the moment they kicked away the lime powder they had prepared a long time ago on the tree, two lethal lancet knives sliced through the air without a sound under the cover of the lime powder.
"Urk!"
"Ah!"
The leader and second were caught off guard since they were so close to each other. They were struck at the same time and cried out in pain.
Their true qi flowed in reverse, and the two instantly lost their ability to fly. They fell from the sky.
"It's third's lancet knives! Second, careful! "
When the leader saw the throwing knife stuck in his stomach, his heart trembled, and he quickly shouted a warning.
"You should worry about yourself."
At that moment, Happy had completely calmed down. In fact, he had become even more confident. There was a faint smile on his face, and the two throwing knives sank into the lime powder that flew in the air without hesitation.
His early preparations had indeed worked wonders. Not only did he create a chance for the enemy to fly and reveal an opening, the lime powder also messed up the duo's vision and mental state, greatly reducing their ability to dodge the throwing knives.
But …
The two throwing knives were far from being able to decide the entire battle.
As of then, the two of them were still lightly injured!
Happy chased after them while they had the upper hand and killed one of them first.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The leader of the tomb robbers was unlucky. He just had to speak at that moment, and it was the perfect moment for Happy, who could not decide which one he should kill first, to instantly make his decision.
While he lost his balance, the leader of the tomb robbers had a throwing knife stuck in his chest and thigh. He grunted, and his body fell on a pile of fallen leaves like a piece of leather.
"Damn brat!"
The leader's survival was unknown, and the second tomb robber was instantly enraged!
He knew that he had fallen into the enemy's trap, but he could not accept being toyed around by a nameless boy. He endured the pain in his arm, exerted his strength, and crashed violently into the tree where Happy was hiding.
Boom!
The huge force broke the tree. Happy was caught off guard, and he was flung down from the tree like a kite with its string snapped. His heart let out a loud thump.
'This is bad! This is bad! '
'I knew it!'
Before he landed on the ground, the saber qi came charging at him.
Happy's eyes were filled with shock. He could only watch as the short knife came slashing at him, and it struck his chest.
