Shadow Assassin — Yang Xuyan!
…
At the moment Yang Xuyan attacked, Happy instantly recognized his identity. When he attacked, there was a unique silence, a unique Shadow Sword Technique, and his cold gaze, which was filled with a desire for revenge, made it clear that he was Evil King Shi Zhixuan's disciple.
He was a super assassin who specialized in assassinations, and he was successful in every endeavor!
But this time …
It was clear that he had run into a wall.
When he saw that the evil cult elder had been injured by Zhang Wuji, even though he had seized the moment when the second evil cult elder appeared, he did not expect that the three Life and Death Realm youngsters who had locked down the area would launch a counterattack against him at the speed of lightning!
The trio's spiritual senses were astonishingly sharp, and they were born wary of danger. They had never let their guard down.
Even though the appearance of the evil cult elder had attracted their attention, the trio had been paying attention to another uneasy spot that shrouded their hearts with incredible clarity!
Happy, One Emperor, Silver Wolf …
The trio attacked at the same time!
One Emperor's sword technique was the fastest. When he drew his black sword, it was like a black bolt of lightning that sliced through the air! Yang Xuyan gasped in surprise. His gaze became wary, and he changed the momentum of his sword without hesitation. The black sword shadow crashed into One Emperor's black bolt of lightning in the air, and both of them disappeared without a single sound.
Happy and Silver Wolf pounced on him!
"Get lost!"
Yang Xuyan was shocked, but his expression did not change.
Even though One Emperor's strength had surprised him slightly and his plan to ambush Zhang Wuji had failed, he did not panic. He stood proudly in his elegant black armor. With a whoosh, his sword flashed, and the dazzling black light forced Silver Wolf to retreat a few feet in a bizarre fashion.
But Silver Wolf was not someone who was easy to deal with!
With a stern expression, he struck repeatedly with his Red Flame Palms.
Yang Xuyan's eyes sparkled. He could only watch as his sword glare had its power reduced by half in the air. Even though it only lasted for a moment, when it landed on Silver Wolf's body, it did not hurt him at all.
Yang Xuyan's expression darkened. He finally realized that he had run into two troublesome opponents. Even though their qi realms were low, their strength was extraordinary. It was no wonder then why his careful ambush had been seen through at the same time.
'Wait!'
Yang Xuyan's expression changed.
There was one more.
The trio had locked down on him at the same time. Could it be that the third person's strength was the same as theirs?
"Damn it!"
Yang Xuyan quickly turned around, but it was already too late. Two palm-generated gusts that had been accumulating power for a long time only exploded forth when they drew close to him.
Once he completed the movements Xiao Feng taught him, he felt as if his body was filled with magma that was like a volcano. His fiery energy boiled madly, and he was in a hurry to find an outlet to vent it. He could not help but open his mouth to roar and push forward with his hands.
"The Arrogant Dragon Regrets!!!"
ROAR!!!
A wild dragon roar exploded in Yang Xuyan's ears at close range. It was a terrifying sight!
Yang Xuyan only saw a huge golden dragon charging at him. His pupils shrank, and he instinctively lifted his sword. A black sword screen spun in his hand.
However, he still did not manage to block the domineering damage from Arrogant Dragon's Regrets. The violent power practically used up all of Happy's strength. The golden dragon broke through the black sword curtain around Yang Xuyan and pierced his body violently. Yang Xuyan shuddered, and due to the remaining force, he was sent flying with his weapon.
Boom!!
He crashed through a few houses in a row and stirred up waves of dust before he gradually calmed down.
The power was so great that not only did Silver Wolf, Dream Clouds, Lu Mingyue, and the others suck in sharp breaths, even One Emperor and the mysterious evil cult elite who had appeared looked away in disbelief. They cast their gazes on the pale Happy.
Crouch!
Once he succeeded in his attack, Happy sat down cross-legged without another word. Under Silver Wolf's protection, he circulated Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill to restore his largely damaged qi.
Arrogant Dragon's Regrets lived up to its name as the most domineering and powerful move in Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm. It forcefully increased the damage by one hundred percent! It caused Happy's already terrifying attack of more than eleven thousand points to instantly increase to nearly twenty thousand points, and that was after he subtracted his weapon damage. With just one move, he dealt a heavy blow to the shadow assassin.
However!
The qi requirement for Arrogant Dragon's Regrets was too domineering.
With just one move, Happy had fallen from a high of 467 points to 267 points! He fell from Life and Death Realm to the edge of Mystical Realm. If he was any worse off, he would fall to Blessed Realm.
'Hiss …' While Happy circulated Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill, he laughed wanly in his heart. 'This move is indeed incredibly domineering. Once I use it, elites at the same level as me won't be able to use it at all. In fact, even Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm's effects will quickly disappear. When I fight against my enemies, if I can't kill them in one move, it's best if I don't use it, or else, it'll be difficult for me to turn the tables. At the very least, it'll be difficult for me to turn the tables in front of top-class elites.'
"Good palm technique."
Once Yang Xuyan was forced back and disappeared, One Emperor and Silver Wolf did not chase after him recklessly. One Emperor stared at Happy's figure, and for the first time, he showed an incredibly excited and surprised expression.
When he heard this, Happy smiled faintly.
"Same here."
If One Emperor had not seized the initiative and attracted most of Yang Xuyan's attention with his slash just then, and Silver Wolf had drawn close to him to lure away the damage, it would have been impossible for Happy to have the chance to execute the technique Xiao Feng taught him — Arrogant Dragon's Regrets.
The trio's teamwork was flawless!
"What's the name of that palm?"
One Emperor's interest did not diminish.
Happy was stunned, but he did not hide it. "Arrogant Dragon's Regrets."
One Emperor nodded quietly and mumbled to himself, "What a great Arrogant Dragon's Regrets. Its momentum can compare to my fifth slash, but it's a little lacking in speed.
"I've already understood my sixth slash on the stage just now. I believe that I'll be able to understand my seventh slash three months later. At that time, we'll have a good fight to make up for today's regret."
"Alright! It's a deal! " When Happy heard One Emperor say that his Arrogant Dragon's Regrets could only compare to his fifth slash, a hint of indignation rose in him. His fighting spirit instantly surged out of his body, and he answered without hesitation, "At that time, I'll definitely fight with my life on the line!"
"Alright!"
One Emperor nodded seriously, and a rare smile appeared on his face.
At that moment, the person who was fighting against Zhang Wuji was finally saved by another evil cult elder who had joined the fight. Both of them fled into the distance, and Shadow Assassin Yang Xuyan did not appear before the people's eyes again.
"Ding!
The eight people in the area heard the system notification at the same time. "Discovered the enemy's location and forced Yang Xuyan and the evil cult elder to retreat. You completed the quest to secretly protect Zhang Wuji and bring up the rear. You obtained one point."
Happy received the reward of one point from the quest just as he wished. With the five points he had accumulated on the stage, he now had six points.
Just when he thought that the quest was over, the system notification rose again.
"You heavily injured Yang Xuyan! You obtained an additional point, and you are viewed as a thorn by Heaven Mending Dao's Yang Xuyan! The evil cult wants to get rid of you as soon as possible!
"Zhang Wuji's affection toward you has increased by leaps and bounds. All of Ming Cult's affection toward you has increased by leaps and bounds. The righteous sects in the world of martial artists regard you as a top-class elite among the younger generation in the righteous path!"
The continuous stream of system notifications caused Happy to be stunned again and again.
'This doesn't seem to be good news!'
