After a brief introduction, Happy gained a basic understanding of the five people. Xu Lang and the others also had a good impression of Happy, who was a senior brother who had gained quite a bit of fame for himself.
It was especially so for the two chili peppers. When they left the city, they kept bugging Happy with questions, as if they had countless questions and great interest in their eldest senior brother, whom they had met many times but never understood. Happy was not stingy with his words toward the two overly passionate admirers. He would occasionally talk about his opinions and his understanding of the game.
Xu Lang and Ghost's Worry followed behind him and listened carefully. Whenever Happy talked about some of his experiences in the game, they would nod frequently.
Soon, the topic shifted to the current mission.
"It's so boring."
Orchid Researcher sat down on the coachman's seat and pouted her pink lips as she grumbled, "We've been walking for a long time, but we still haven't run into anyone who wants to steal the tribute. We're so far from Gusu City to Beijing. If we keep walking like this, just how long will it take?"
The others expressed the same thoughts.
They did not expect that their journey would be so peaceful and boring.
Happy looked up at the sky.
"We're not out of Gusu City's territory yet. Who do you think would dare to steal the Murong Clan's carriages in broad daylight?"
"That's true."
"Everyone, look at the date of the quest. A branch quest has already appeared." Once the group was reminded by Happy, they called out the date of the quest. When they saw it, delight instantly appeared on their faces.
It mentioned that there was a courier station ahead of them, and they could receive the horses the Murong Clan had reserved there. At that time, each of them would have a horse, and they would be able to travel faster.
"This is great! We can ride horses now!"
The two chili peppers instantly had their faces turn red, and they were excited.
Ghost's Worry and Xu Lang were also incredibly excited. Riding a horse to roam the world of martial artists was the dream of every hot-blooded man. When they thought about how they were about to realize their dream, who would not be excited?
Only Eleventh Crane cast a few more glances at Happy, who remained incredibly calm.
Only Happy noticed the appearance of the branch quest in the party. By the looks of it, he had not relied entirely on luck to stand out so quickly in Gusu City.
There were plenty of rumors about the Blue-robed Noble Sword User, but it was only yesterday that he truly realized that their youngest senior brother, who was the first to walk out of the Murong Clan, might have truly reached an astonishing level, or else, he would not have been able to defeat two sects one after another.
With Happy holding the fort, they should be able to get through the quest easily.
Eleventh Crane caressed the wooden bow at his waist and released a slight sigh of relief.
Happy did not notice Eleventh Crane's change.
He could understand everyone's excitement, but he was more concerned about the instability of the bandits this time. The bandits ranged from normal Gate Realm bandits to the few powerful Forest Union players who had reached Mystical Realm. The fluctuations in their strength were great. He frowned and thought about it for a while, but in the end, he still gave up on the idea of notifying everyone to be on high alert.
Since I'm already here, I'll just take things as they come …
If he cared too much about the gains and losses, it might lead to unexpected situations. He might as well go with the flow!
Once he thought of this, he went to the front seat of the carriage and sat down cross-legged.
He circulated his true qi, and a hazy layer of fog quickly appeared around him. As he breathed faintly, it would occasionally turn into steam that rose into the air, and at other times, the dew would disappear. White fog surrounded him, and his rhythm was calm and orderly, making him look like an immortal.
The five people in the caravan were quickly attracted by the strange sight of Happy practicing his martial arts!
"This is …"
"Will circulating a qi cultivation technique cause such a great commotion?"
"I think I've read about it online before. There's a madman whose qi cultivation technique seems to have reached more than eighty levels. Once he circulates it, his qi recovers very quickly, and his life and stamina also recover very quickly. But he didn't seem to cause such a great commotion." Ghost's Worry clicked his tongue and spoke of what he saw in a whisper.
Naturally, he did not know that Happy had a deep understanding of the importance of qi cultivation techniques. Every day, he would take out a certain amount of time to practice Complete Reality Qi Cultivation Technique. Yesterday, he had also used the Great Wolves that were about to die to practice Black Dragon Murder. Every single time, he would use up most of the qi in his Dantian region, and he would immediately sit down to recover. His qi cultivation technique improved very quickly, and he quickly reached the tenth realm to reach 93.77. He believed that before long, his Complete Reality Qi Cultivation Technique would reach Grandmaster Realm.
At that time …
His qi cultivation technique would circulate on its own. Even though it was slow, the slow recovery effect of a Grandmaster Realm qi cultivation technique would show great value when he faced a large-scale battle. It would not lose to the effects of constantly taking medicinal pills.
The five people watched him for a long time.
Once again, they could see the sweat and hard work Happy had put in to become the strongest player in Gusu City.
After completing the three major circulatory cycles, Zhang Xuan's internal energy and mental cultivation technique had improved inconspicuously.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Eleventh Crane standing in front of him.
Before he could speak, Eleventh Crane took the initiative to make a suggestion.
"I scouted the path ahead just now. Soon, we'll reach the courier station, but there's a group of powerful people ahead of us. Happy, I heard that your throwing knives have also reached Grandmaster Realm. Why don't we compete and see who can kill more people?" There was no hint of provocation in Eleventh Crane's tone. It was as if he was making a suggestion to a friend.
Happy nodded and agreed to it without another word.
Even though the damage and number of kills from lancet knives could not compare to bow techniques, Happy still wanted to know just how good Eleventh Crane's bow and arrow skills were. It had to be known that those who truly knew how to shoot and those who only knew how to shoot were two completely different concepts.
Once the latter got close to them, they would definitely die.
The former represented skill, accuracy, damage, and tactics! Not a single true archer would be able to survive within one hundred steps of them.
If Eleventh Crane belonged to the former, then the aid he would provide to the caravan would be unimaginable. Even if he had to face multiple Blessed Realm martial artists, Happy was confident that he could fight against them.
If it was the latter …
Happy jumped down from the carriage, tapped against the ground, and left the caravan. Together with Eleventh Crane, they headed to the courier station in the distance. Both of them moved as if there was wind under their feet, and their speed was astonishing. They dashed forward madly, and soon, they left the caravan far behind. Their lightness skills were actually on par with each other.
'Amazing.'
Eleventh Crane was shocked.
It had to be known that he only had two martial arts that had reached Grandmaster Realm. One of them was Three Bow Fusion, and the other was Bow Body, a lightness skill and footwork tailored for archers. He had spent nearly a month practicing them to their peak, and with these two martial arts in Grandmaster Realm, he had gained a certain amount of fame in Gusu City.
He originally wanted to show his might to his youngest senior brother, but he did not expect that his lightness skill, which was the best, would not be able to suppress him at all. In fact, in terms of speed, Eleventh Crane seemed to be slightly faster. He was relaxed, and he looked as if he was at ease.
But what he did not know was that Happy was also shocked.
The damage of a Grandmaster Realm bow technique was much greater than a throwing knife technique. It was also faster and more accurate. Its range was also something that throwing knives could not hope to reach. This meant that with the same lightness skill, bow techniques could threaten throwing knives, but throwing knives could not threaten archers.
When he thought of this, Happy felt embarrassed.
With such a powerful person in the caravan, what did he need to worry about? Even if he ran into a Blessed Realm martial artist, he could just kite them to death!
