Happy won two rounds in a row and took back his plate, just as he wished. He jumped to the second stage, and at that moment, he was surprised to see a familiar figure at the foot of the second stage!
Happy froze, and he subconsciously stopped moving.
"… Song Qingshu."
The originally elegant young man in the crowd had already changed his previous attire. He was dressed in a brocade robe, and there was a wild and cold look on his face. He stood in the crowd with a dark gaze while he stared at the two people fighting on the stage.
Song Qingshu had indeed come to Hero's Mountain Villa.
Happy was delighted.
Since Song Qingshu was here, Zhou Zhiruo was definitely here as well. That would save him the trouble of searching for them all over the world.
Compared to before, Song Qingshu was a little less conceited and gentle. He was also a little colder, and he seemed much more level-headed!
Happy was stunned. Then, he noticed Chen Youliang pointing at him while standing beside Song Qingshu. Song Qingshu frowned and looked over. At the moment their gazes met, a clear hint of killing intent flashed in Song Qingshu's eyes. The cold feeling came quickly, but it also left just as quickly.
Song Qingshu soon hid away the coldness in his eyes. He became gentle again, and he walked over.
"Young Swordsman Happy."
His voice was clear and calm, and there was a hint of fake delight in it. He walked in front of Happy with Chen Youliang.
Happy originally could not be bothered with the two hypocrites, but when he remembered that the final page of Nine Yang Divine Skill was in Zhang Sanfeng's hands and that he had to persuade the brat to return to Wudang Mountain, he had to smile and say, "I see, Young Swordsman Song of Wudang Sect. Forgive me for not recognizing you." As he spoke, his mind raced. He was thinking about how he should bring Song Qingshu back to Wudang Sect.
"Hehe … Young Swordsman Happy, you're wrong." Chen Youliang laughed by the side and stared into Happy's eyes.
"Young Swordsman Song, looks like you don't know that you've already left Wudang Sect and are living together with Sect Leader Zhou Zhiruo of Emei Sect on Emei Mountain."
Happy knew this a long time ago, so he would naturally not be affected by Chen Youliang's words. However, when he noticed that Chen Youliang was intentionally making him feel displeased, his mind raced, and his expression changed. He could not help but quirk his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
Chen Youliang was very scheming.
Even though he had done it on purpose, when he saw Happy's displeasure, he immediately put on a look of realization and tried to hide it. He pretended that he had made a slip of the tongue and said, "Could it be that Young Swordsman Happy also has feelings for Sect Leader Zhou? I made a slip of the tongue, damn it. It's actually like this. Young Swordsman Song was invited by Sect Leader Zhou to join Emei Sect, and he has no other intentions." If Happy truly loved Zhou Zhiruo, he might end up fighting against Song Qingshu to the point that he would not be able to get along with Song Qingshu.
But Song Qingshu just smiled.
"Brother Chen, you don't have to mind me. Everyone in the world of martial artists knows that I'm in love with Sect Leader Zhou. There's no need for me to hide it. Young Swordsman Happy, you also know about it, don't you think?"
"Young Swordsman Song, it's fine if you don't mind it. What's important is Emei Sect Leader Zhiruo's reputation!" Happy's tone suddenly turned stern. "I do not wish for Sect Leader Zhou's reputation to be destroyed by some people's tongues! Elder Chen! Young Swordsman Song! There are some things that you should not say, so don't say them. I have quite a good relationship with Sect Leader Zhou. If I hear such rumors again, don't blame me for being rude to you! "
He swept his cold gaze over Chen Youliang and Song Qingshu.
Chen Youliang had an awkward look on his face. He wisely chose not to speak again.
Song Qingshu was finally unable to hold back his anger.
"You —"
"Besides, Song Qingshu." Happy's tone suddenly turned cold, and he mercilessly continued to humiliate Song Qingshu. "Miss Zhou is as pure as ice and as clean as jade, and she is also the sect leader of Emei Sect. You, Song Qingshu, are just a normal disciple of Wudang Sect, an unfilial disciple who betrayed his sect! What right do you have to say such nonsense in front of others and say that you like Sect Leader Zhou? Even if you do, I don't think you deserve it. That's why, if I hear such words again, I don't mind teaching you a lesson on behalf of the seniors of Wudang Sect. "
Men had to have their own pride.
Happy's words did not just belittle Song Qingshu based on his strength and status. In fact, he even made him look down on him based on his morals. No matter how calm Song Qingshu was, it was impossible for him to endure it!
"Shut up!"
Clang!
He drew his longsword and pointed the sharp tip at Happy. "I respect you for saving the elites from the six great system-allocated sects and working hard for the righteous path of martial artists, but you humiliated me in every possible way. I will fight against you!"
"With what identity?" Happy remained calm and snorted coldly. "Do you want to fight me as a traitor of Wudang Sect, as an Emei Sect disciple, or as a normal martial artist?"
"Of course I'm an Emei Sect disciple!"
Song Qingshu answered through gritted teeth, but he did not expect that it would fall right into Happy's trap.
He smiled coldly.
"If you want to fight me as an Emei Sect disciple, I'd advise you to take back what you said just now." He stopped talking for a moment, and under the attention of the martial artists who came to watch, he said with a myriad of emotions in his heart, "I saved Emei Sect's Mistress Annihilation during the battle at Eternal Peace Temple.
"I saved Emei Sect's Mistress Annihilation during the battle at Eternal Peace Temple. The current sect leader, Zhou Zhiruo, has given strict orders to her disciples to treat me as an honored guest of Emei Sect and treat me with respect. Young Swordsman Song, could it be that you think that you are higher than the sect leader of Emei Sect, or is it that you are used to being spoiled by Great Swordsman Song in Wudang Sect and are used to ignoring the sect leader's orders?"
"You …"
Song Qingshu clearly did not expect that Zhou Zhiruo would give him such an order. His expression changed. "If that's the case, I will temporarily cast aside my identity as an Emei Sect disciple and challenge you as a normal martial artist."
"A normal martial artist?"
Happy's smile grew brighter.
"If you're a normal martial artist, what contributions have you made to the world of martial artists? What achievements have you made? Who invited you to Hero's Mountain Villa with your current title? " He stopped talking for a moment, and a smile appeared on his face, as if his scheme had succeeded. "If I didn't, why would I accept a challenge from a boring person?"
Song Qingshu's face turned red before it turned purple.
Happy had truly touched his sore spot.
Even though he had also participated in the battle at Light Summit, Happy had shone brilliantly during that battle, and Song Qingshu was nothing compared to him. He was just like a normal passerby. As for his reputation, he was just a normal Wudang Sect disciple. He did not have much experience in the world of martial artists, so what sort of reputation could he have? No matter where he went, people only called him Young Swordsman Song because of Wudang Sect and Song Yuanqiao.
"Don't even think about leaving!"
When Song Qingshu saw that Happy was about to leave, he quickly moved to block him and shouted fiercely, "Stop boasting! Today, you humiliated me in front of my fellow martial artists! I will definitely fight against you!"
While Happy and Song Qingshu stood against each other, Song Yuanqiao stopped two Wudang Sect disciples who were about to go downstairs to mediate the situation. "Don't go! It'll be good if Young Swordsman Happy teaches that unfilial son a lesson. "
