"Hmm?"
Yu Yan easily got rid of the group of scouts who had fired the signal flare. Soon, Happy sensed a chill that had appeared out of nowhere in the cool night air. Then, he paid full attention to his surroundings, and he finally noticed an inconspicuous shadow quietly approaching him from the distance. It had nearly managed to hide from him.
'Shadow Assassin?'
Happy soon rejected the thought, because not only was the person not as cautious and cautious as Yang Xuyan, he did not seem to be worried about being discovered. While the sound of air being torn faded away, he closed in on Happy like an arrow, and he was incredibly domineering.
"Xin! Retreat! "
Happy sensed danger from the person, and he did not dare to be negligent. While he ordered Yu Yan to leave, he sighed quietly.
'As expected, it's unrealistic to expect the commander of the enemy camp to underestimate me.'
But what he did not expect was that he would attract a huge crocodile the first time he came. The person was dressed in soft armor, and not only did he look like an elite from the army, he also had a ruthless expression on his face. Clearly, he was an evil cult elite! How many people in the Mongolian army had such an awe-inspiring presence? Aside from Demon General Zhao Deyan, who else could he be among the eight evil cult elites?
Wind Blast!
Before the two of them could say anything, a sharp, cold wind came slicing at their faces.
Happy became wary, and he instinctively sensed that the situation was bad. Golden Bell Cocoon rose from his body.
It was like a huge golden bell. It shone without any sign and enveloped Happy within it.
Clang!
The golden bell trembled madly.
A loud bell chime rose, and the golden light on the surface of the golden bell grew exponentially. It shone like a small sun, and everything around it was revealed.
But soon, five sharp, black claw marks appeared on the surface of the golden bell. The light that grew exponentially instantly faded away, and it became dim.
Yu Yan was the only witness, and she saw it the most clearly.
But she still could not tell how Zhao Deyan attacked.
However, Happy used the profound secret of Golden Bell Cocoon to not only successfully avoid Zhao Deyan's ruthless attack, he also swiftly widened the distance between them and retreated to her side. He stared at the mysterious elite who had been forced to take two steps back and stopped thirty-two feet away from him.
"The one who came is Demon General!"
Happy's relaxed attitude caused Yu Yan to feel at ease for some reason.
The mysterious man spoke, and his cold words contained an inexplicable pressure that caused her heart to sink.
"Brat, you're quite knowledgeable. It's no wonder why you were able to avoid my First Soul Returning Claw at such a young age." Even though Zhao Deyan said those words, some of his arrogance faded away.
Even though he did not use his full strength in the claw strike just then, he did not manage to force Happy to use a profound martial art at the level of Shifting Stars and Golden Bell Cocoon. He had actually used a peasant's move to deal with him.
"The Demon Commander is the Khan's military advisor and holds an important position. Yet, you've chased him alone into an uninhabited grassland in the middle of the night. Isn't this a little too rash …"
His words seemed to be thinking for Zhao Deyan's sake, but when he heard them, they sounded like mockery.
"Ignorant child! What an arrogant tone! With just you and this little girl from an ordinary sect, if you can escape from the palm of Grandpa Zhao's hand, then even the heavens have opened their eyes. You still dare to make irresponsible remarks … shamelessly boasting! "
Happy's pupils shrank. He noticed that once Zhao Deyan finished speaking, his wide purple cloak suddenly fluttered in an abnormal manner.
Bang!
A swift and fierce Qi ruthlessly hit him in the chest.
His body shuddered, and under Yu Yan's shocked gaze, Happy stomped on the ground. His feet dragged out two trenches that were more than thirty feet long and half a foot deep before he stopped.
"Don't come over! I'm fine. "
He raised his hand and stopped Yu Yan's footsteps. While he calmed down the surging qi and blood in his chest, he slowly wiped off the hint of blood at the corner of his lips. There was a smile on his face that caused Zhao Deyan to frown.
"As expected of the Demon General whose rank is only inferior to Evil King and Zhu Yuyan. Senior Zhao, even your attacks are different from others." There was a mocking tone in Happy's words that he did not hide.
When he heard this, Zhao Deyan was not shocked or angry. His tone was cold. "You don't have to mock me. I am someone from the evil cult, and I will naturally not do things like you disciples from famous sects who consider yourselves to be in the righteous path. However, you actually managed to receive a palm strike from me and not die. You're also not heavily injured either. This has indeed exceeded my expectations."
"I was just lucky." Happy raised his chin slightly. While he was mocking Zhao Deyan, his cold arrogance could be seen clearly.
Yu Yan was familiar with Happy, and she could sense a hint of anger in Happy's words. By the looks of it, Happy had already been slightly angered by Zhao Deyan.
…
In the underground base of the headquarters in Beijing, Glasses Man, Li Mei, and a group of employees stared at Happy and Zhao Deyan facing each other on the screen with burning gazes. Their eyes shone with different expressions.
"What happened just now?"
Glasses Man frowned.
Even though Happy looked a little disheveled and seemed to be at a disadvantage, the people in the area were not ordinary people. They knew that Zhao Deyan would not speak for no reason and stall for time.
The situation was definitely different from what they saw.
At that moment, the man who looked like a manager tapped the wristwatch on his wrist and answered expressionlessly.
"The First Soul Returning Claw that Zhao Deyan used is a martial art from Sky Demon Slip. Not only is its damage domineering, it also has the effect of using soft qi to injure the enemy. When he fights, he can use his palm force to directly injure a person's heart meridian, and it will largely reduce his opponent's strength. It has the same effect as the defense breaking effect of a sword technique."
Right when he finished speaking, the image on the screen quickly zoomed in.
It was a close-up of Zhao Deyan's cloak.
Two holes appeared out of nowhere on the exquisite and luxurious purple cloak, and it looked as if it was brand new.
"It's Joined Finger!"
The expressionless manager continued explaining, "It's an ultimate technique from the Murong Clan. Its damage isn't astonishing, but its attack speed is very fast, and its advantage lies in the fact that it's soundless, making it impossible for others to guard against it. Zhao Deyan was also hit."
"…"
When they heard this, the people in the area instantly understood what happened. Zhao Deyan did not chase after Happy after he succeeded in his attack, because he was also hit by at least two finger-generated gusts of wind from Happy's fingers.
The group instantly fell silent.
In truth, when Zhao Deyan attacked, they noticed the movements from the cloak. Even though they did not notice the attack trajectory, they still paid some attention to it. But when Happy attacked and how Zhao Deyan was hit was something that no one aside from the manager noticed.
Glasses Man calmly took off his glasses, wiped them, put them on again, and watched even more attentively.
…
Zhao Deyan's hands were still hidden under his cloak, and his movements could not be seen clearly. However, he no longer dared to attack recklessly, because he noticed that while First Soul Returning Claw could injure Happy, it was not as serious as it seemed.
'This damn brat actually relied on Nine Yang Divine Skill's resistance toward soft palm attacks and actually used Nine Yang Body Fortification along with a normal body fortification technique to withstand all the palm force.'
Zhao Deyan's gaze darkened, and he grabbed his purple cloak with a solemn expression.
Whoosh!
He flicked his wrist, and the wide cloak was instantly twisted into a bundle. He held it in his hands as if it was made of steel, and a tight-fitting black soft armor covered Zhao Deyan's entire body in a mighty and cold manner. He looked like a demon who had descended to the mortal world.
