“Stop!”
Happy might have paused when he heard that unfamiliar but also familiar voice, but he did not obediently let go of the Cla.s.s One Hall members who had been injured. Clear Abyss drew a line in the air at an even faster speed before he put it into its sheath. The motion was done in one breath.
Bang! Bang!
Dozens of Cla.s.s One Hall members who wanted to climb up shone with blood-red light on their chests. They lost their lives and fell to the ground.
At that moment, there were fewer than ten injured Cla.s.s One Hall members in the branch within Vast Martial City who stood far away while they stared at Happy with fear and anger. They held their weapons tightly as if they were facing a great enemy.
“You…”
Tang Feng rushed into the branch like the wind. When he saw that his shout had not been able to stop Happy from killing the Cla.s.s One Hall members, his expression became very unpleasant.
Happy calmly flung his Clear Abyss to the other hand and said, “Brother Tang, I don’t recall you being a member of Cla.s.s One Hall. Do you intend to stand up for them?”
As he spoke, he swept his gaze across the last few members of Cla.s.s One Hall in the branch. His expression was calm, and his speech relaxed. He never cast Tang Feng another glance since the start to the end.
Tang Feng felt his heart freeze, but he did not step into Happy’s trap. “Brother Happy, you’re being so serious that you’re embarra.s.sing me. Cla.s.s One Hall is the greatest sect in World of Martial Arts, so how could I, Tang Feng, have the virtue and the ability to stand up for Cla.s.s One Hall?
“It’s just that we have conducted a few businesses together before. I have been employed by someone to not let anyone enter this branch while it is weakened and destroy it. Brother Happy, I hope you can understand.”
“Is that so?” Happy frowned slightly, but his tone was as calm and relaxed as ever. He then looked at Tang Feng. “This is the first time I heard that the famous Hall Master Tang Feng of a.s.sa.s.sin Hall has a side job of doing good deeds. This is indeed something unheard of.”
A slightly awkward expression appeared on Tang Feng’s face. The mocking tone in Happy’s words was very clear.
It was obvious that he had been employed to take someone’s life, but he just had to make himself sound dignified and give others the misunderstanding that Cla.s.s One Hall had paid him to protect the branch, which was why he was forced to be enemies with Happy.
Tang Feng laughed dryly. Then, his expression changed and he looked toward the left of the branch with a cold gaze.
All-powerful Medicinal Stone did not stop attacking. While Happy and Tang Feng spoke, he killed another two people and reduced the number of Cla.s.s One Hall members to five.
“Hmph!”
Tang Feng snorted coldly. He flicked his wrist, and without another word, two winged needles shot out.
However, he underestimated All-powerful Medicinal Stone’s speed.
He left behind several b.l.o.o.d.y marks on a Cla.s.s One Hall member before he moved and appeared behind the latter like a phantom. The moment the b.u.t.terfly needles shot out in a mysterious and soundless way, All-powerful Medicinal Stone pierced through the distracted Cla.s.s One Hall member’s throat.
Then, he removed himself from the fight and retreated to Happy’s side.
“Where did you come from, you brat? How dare you bother me?”
All-powerful Medicinal Stone was not an easy character to deal with. Even though he had not suffered any loss whatsoever, he still wanted to make his enemy suffer.
Once Tang Feng missed, shock appeared on his face, and he regarded All-powerful Medicinal Stone a little higher.
“I’ve never asked for your name.”
“Forget it. I don’t have the mood to fight to the death with you. Happy, go play with him. I’ll crush that annoying rock.” All-powerful Medicinal Stone intended to do just as he said, so he turned around and shot toward the black plate in front of the hall.
“I already said that I am in charge of this branch’s safety. Happy, your brother doesn’t seem to treat me as someone worth his acknowledgment.”
Tang Feng’s expression turned dark. He took the opportunity to take a step forward, and a handful of black sand was brought out of his black leather pouch.
A group of Tang Sect disciples also quickly came up next to Tang Feng. All sorts of hidden weapons appeared in their hands, and they stared at Happy coldly.
Even though they had already done everything to make themselves look imposing and give off an awe-inspiring presence, it was clear that they were not quite confident in their task.
From the restaurant, they had witnessed the entire fight since Happy had walked into the branch.
With just two people, they left more than eighty people lying dead on the ground in just a couple minutes. Only five people managed to survive, and even they were injured. Even if Tang Sect disciples had been ignorant, they could sense that Happy’s strength did not seem to have dropped.
Tang Feng had a vague guess that Happy might have received some sort of sacred medicine that could cure severe injuries. His heart instantly became much colder at the thought of that.
There was no need to question Happy’s abilities, and it would not be strange if he had managed to get sacred medicine that could cure wounds in some hidden quest, which was something that all martial artists could only dream of having.
Besides, Happy did not show any signs of fear since he appeared. His way of speaking and his actions were relaxed and calm, just like how he had behaved when he was intercepted at the government-made road, where he had a firm control of the situation. When Tang Feng thought about how he had to fight against Happy while he was at full strength again, he hesitated.
The group stared at Happy and All-powerful Medicinal Stone in front of the hall with solemn expressions.
Happy shook his head and smiled. Under the wary gazes of people from Tang Sect, he used a very strange saber grip to draw his sword and slowly pressed his hands against the sword hilt.
A powerful but intangible aura locked down on Tang Feng,.
“We did not manage to settle our fight outside the royal mausoleum. This is just perfect. We can settle all of our old and new grudges right here…”
Tang Feng’s expression changed, but he did not say anything.
The faces of Tang Sect members filled with anger, making it clear that they were very displeased with Happy’s arrogant words. They regarded them with great disdain.
Happy did not bother with the group’s reaction. He just spoke softly at his own pace while his voice traveled through the entire area. It crept into the ears of the countless players who were watching the fight.
“You decided to attack me while my abilities are compromised. The formidable Cla.s.s One Hall’s tolerance and conduct is only so much. But since Cla.s.s One Hall has already made the decision to go against me, I will definitely fight against you with all my strength. However, once Beautiful Robes Faction’s headquarters is destroyed, Vast Martial City’s branch will also be destroyed, and it will only be the first branch I will destroy.
“I, Happy, swear right here and right now, that I will visit each of your many branches and your headquarters when the time comes! I will also visit the two vice hall masters and hall master of Cla.s.s One Hall!”
His last sentence was said resolutely and decisively, and his words were loud and clear. Upon hearing them, the expressions of Tang Feng, his group, and the people from Cla.s.s One Hall changed.
Happy’s gaze landed on Tang Feng and his group, and his tone became different. “Brother Tang, since a.s.sa.s.sin Hall has started to receive safeguarding missions, I believe that we will have many chances to meet each other in the future, but I do wonder whether a.s.sa.s.sin Hall will still be as famous as it is after today.”
After saying that, the sound of All-powerful Medicinal Stone attacking the black stone plate reached everyone’s ears with a loud clang.
Cla.s.s One Hall members swiftly snapped out of their stupor.
“Swordsman Tang, stop him, quickly!”
“We can’t let him destroy our branch foundation!”
“Shut up!”
Tang Feng flew into a rage. His expression went through various shades of red and paleness as he stared at Happy, who held his sword and stood before the crowd like a mountain.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Your grudge against Cla.s.s One Hall has nothing to do with me, but since a.s.sa.s.sin Hall has already received money from its employer, we will have to carry out our mission, so…” After those words, his voice became deeper. “I will have to offend you!”
He swung his arm, and dozens of Tang Sect disciples attacked at the same time. All sorts of hidden weapons, throwing knives, flying needles, and defense piercing bolts struck out, and they intersected with each other to quickly form a huge prison of death that closed down on Happy.
Once Tang Sect attacked, the world became different!
The expressions of the onlookers changed!
However, the moment the huge prison of death was formed, a sword force that was breathtaking to behold rose swiftly from beneath.
Alarm bells rang out in Tang Feng’s heart, but he did not have time to react when that sword force sliced through the air like lightning and pierced his chest. His consciousness swiftly vanished.
‘Sword force?’
