It was as if Zhang Wuji and Happy's conversation had never happened.
Zhao Min did not do anything strange.
Zhou Zhiruo was the same as always. She spent most of her time daydreaming while hugging Heavenly Sword.
The pretty and obedient Xiao Zhao served everyone's food on her own initiative.
Zhang Wuji would occasionally go out to search for the traces of the Holy Fire Order messengers from Ming Cult's headquarters and check whether there were ships by the sea.
Happy could not stay in the cave, so he spent most of his time in an empty spot in the forest not too far away from the cave. He trained his limbs with Xie Xun, who was used to training.
Xie Xun held Dragon Saber, but he did not use any saber techniques. He fought against Happy with one hand, and Happy was barely able to exchange blows with him. His Flying Dragon Sword Technique had also improved!
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Spirit Snake Island seemed to have no more players, and it became quiet.
Happy was happy to train with Xie Xun to improve his Flying Dragon Sword Technique and his other Mystical Realm high-tier body fortification technique.
On this day …
Xie Xun practiced for less than four hours before he sheathed his saber and returned to the cave. He had Zhang Wuji explore Spirit Snake Island.
Happy did not immediately return to the cave. He continued to circulate his qi and meditate on the spot to recover his qi.
He did not know how much time had passed, but a faint breeze blew through the forest. An unfamiliar presence seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in the air.
Alarm rose in Happy's heart, and he opened his eyes swiftly. His gaze was like cold lightning as he stared northeast.
"Who is it?!"
A faint figure walked out of the depths of the forest at a seemingly slow pace. With just a few steps, he appeared thirty-two feet away from Happy. There was a faint smile on his face, and there was a sheathed black longsword by his waist.
At the moment the person stopped thirty-two feet away from him, Happy jumped up without batting an eyelid, and his fourth-echelon Nation Protecting Divine Sword landed in his hands.
The two of them looked at each other and sized each other up.
While Happy quietly sensed the person's gaze, he also scrutinized the person's face, equipment, and weapon with a grave expression!
The person was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was young and heroic. He was dressed in a purple robe with black borders. At the same time, he gave off a graceful and noble air, but at the same time, he gave off a faint air of mystery and superiority. There was a hint of surprise on his calm and smiling face. He stared at Happy, and under his calm expression, he did not hide the praise in his eyes.
"You're Happy."
His voice was calm and there was a hint of confirmation in it.
Happy was dressed in very normal green robes. When the slightly damp sea breeze blew at him, his sleeves and hero's bandana fluttered casually, giving off a very gentle and casual air. His dazzling and luxurious fourth-echelon Nation Protecting Divine Sword gave Happy, who looked like a harmless scholar, the air of a swordsman out of nowhere.
In truth, the newcomer found it very difficult to believe that the calm and gentle man in front of him was the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank, who was famous in World of Martial Arts, who killed decisively, and who could even influence the three top-class sects in the game.
When he heard this, Happy looked up slightly, and his gaze lingered on the person who came over for a moment.
"May I know who you are?"
"One Emperor."
The other party's tone was normal, but the two names that came out of his mouth made his eyebrows jump.
As expected!
Even though Happy had been prepared for it a long time ago, when he truly confirmed the person's identity, he could not help but be shocked. As expected of One Emperor. His presence and awe-inspiring presence were clearly the accumulation of power he had accumulated over a long period of not losing in battles.
"I've heard of you for a long time, you're the strongest on Dragon Rank."
He calmed down and smiled faintly.
"You too, I'm the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank!"
The smile on One Emperor's face grew brighter. "I've heard of your name since a long time ago. Over the past eight months, the tides have risen and fallen. Quick Sword Xiao San, North Placating Duke of Great Desert, Dongfang Bubai's successor, Lu Mingyue, the top ranked player on the Phoenix Rank, Wind Void … Some of them are still around, and some have already fallen into decline. But Happy's name has always resounded in my ears, and he has already become a legend in the game! Now that I've met you, you do indeed live up to your name! "
Happy always felt like he was being oppressed in front of One Emperor.
One Emperor might have been talking and joking in a relaxed manner, but there was a presence that no one could see through flowing around his body. It was as if he was a sword that had restrained its sharpness!
An invisible sword will surrounded his body faintly, and no one could look at him directly! It also gave off an uncomfortable feeling of being oppressed, and Happy hated that feeling.
"You praise me too much!"
Happy sucked in a deep breath and suddenly did something that One Emperor did not expect.
He rubbed his thumb, and Nation Protecting Divine Sword came out of its sheath slightly!
Clang!
The sword will around One Emperor's body was affected, and it suddenly became sharp.
One Emperor's pupils shrank slightly.
But soon, he felt relieved.
He saw that …
Nation Protecting Divine Sword had been drawn out of its sheath slightly, and a small part of its blade was revealed. Three colors flowed around the sword, and it shone with a magical light. While it was sharp, a faint and dangerous presence gathered in the sheath.
Happy maintained the posture of holding the sword with one hand and keeping the sword slightly exposed, but his expression was much calmer. "Sir, you have always been the target of my envy. You are the strongest on Dragon Rank, and you are publicly acknowledged as the strongest in the game. There are countless people who flatter you, but they can't even catch up to you. Even I can't catch up to you, and I want to have the chance to fight against the strongest on Dragon Rank."
The faint sword will from Flying Dragon Sword Technique that gathered in the sheath finally allowed Happy to completely get rid of the endless pressure that One Emperor brought to him after he appeared. He felt relaxed, as if he was facing someone who was on par with him, and he felt as if he had let go of a huge boulder that weighed thousands of pounds.
"Why don't we fight today?"
One Emperor's eyes shone with a strange light. Suddenly, his aura grew by leaps and bounds. The sword will that rose from Happy's body stirred up his fighting spirit.
When he heard this, Happy laughed.
"Why not?!"
In his previous life, not being able to fight against One Emperor had always been Happy's greatest regret. Now that he had the chance, there was no way Happy would be afraid of fighting against him!
Boom!
In an instant, his fighting spirit rose in his heart.
"But I learned a sword technique that kills. When I attack, I will not be able to retaliate. I might not be able to stop when I reach my target." One Emperor seemed to have been affected by Happy's aura. His words became cold as the sword will rose from his body. The space around him also seemed to have suddenly become much dimmer. His words were a clear reminder.
"If you want to pursue the peak of martial arts, you must cast aside life and death and fight with everything you have!"
Happy spoke very slowly, and he enunciated each word with great force.
One Emperor's expression changed slightly.
When he looked at Happy, his gaze suddenly became very complicated and strange. There seemed to be a faint hint of admiration and empathy in his great fighting spirit.
Naturally, he did not know that Happy's words were the epiphany he gained after he watched the battle replay of One Emperor's previous life. Later on, he used those words as his motto to challenge all the elites in the game.
"If you want to pursue the peak of martial arts, you must cast aside life and death and fight with everything you have!"
One Emperor mumbled Happy's words under his breath, and he chewed on them repeatedly.
"That's right!
"The peak of martial arts requires you to cast aside life and death. Haha!" One Emperor suddenly threw his head back and laughed madly. His posture was incredibly bold and unrestrained.
"As expected of the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank! I originally thought that the top ranked player on the Famous People Rank is just a child who fights for fame and wealth to entertain the people. I didn't expect that you would have such ambitions as well! "Alright! Let's postpone today's battle for half a year. Even if Book of Wumu and Nine Yin Manual fall into your hands, you won't be buried! "
"…"
Happy was stunned, but he noticed that One Emperor's sword will was fusing back into his body at an even faster speed.
One Emperor's expression was stern. He turned around and left in an incredibly serious manner.
"Half a year later, fight against me!" One Emperor moved incredibly quickly. His voice traveled into Happy's ears from the forest in the distance, and it was clear and solemn. "Right now, I have only understood the fifth slash, and Zhou Yu lost after receiving three slashes from me. Half a year later, I believe that I will have understood the seventh slash. At that time, I hope that you will not disappoint me.
Happy, I hope that you will not disappoint me. "When Happy heard those words, he felt fortunate, but also disappointed.
