15 Losing Way in the Tomb (1/2)

”Successfully fired signal flare. Last for the time it takes an incense stick to burn [1] in the hands of Third Tomb Robber!”

The notification from the system made Happy overjoyed.

When he saw that two of the three villains in Gate Realm left and only Third came to chase after him, he instantly felt his spirits rise, because the light of hope had just shone on him when he was in despair.

While Third was good at using hidden weapons and was also the best when it came to the lightness skill, Happy was not the normal amateur that the three tomb robbers expected.

Even though Happy's qi was weak and he was unarmed, he believed that he still had a chance to defend himself and survive if he were up against Third alone.

Hiss!

The sound of wind being sliced charged towards him. Happy listened to the sound of the wind to determine where it came from and rolled forward without bothering about his image. He then jumped backwards and avoided a lancet knife that went past him.

Clang!

Sparks flew when the hidden weapon crashed into a huge sword that was as big as a hill. Happy landed on the ground firmly, but he did not dare to linger around. He slithered his way into the tall sword tomb with his back bent, just like a mud fish.

Third was not concerned about missing his target once.

The terrain of the sword tombs was complicated, and it was easy for someone to hide in it. Besides, since the boy was a disciple from the Murong Clan, he had already cultivated some qi. This naturally made him different from the panicky villagers. It was quite expected that he would have some ability to dodge his throwing knives.

But…

When all the subsequent lancet knives missed too, Third finally discovered that his enemy might not be as easy to deal with as he thought. He gritted his teeth and roared, ”Once we get out of this tomb, I'd like to see where you can hide!” He no longer attacked and just chased Happy.

At that moment, Happy laughed. ”You want me to go out? Well, I'm not going to.”

He changed his direction and went into a side road in the sword tomb before going to the east side.

The situation had already changed. If all three tomb robbers were around, Happy would naturally leave the sword tomb at the fastest speed possible, since if he were surrounded, he would definitely die.

But it was different now. If he left the sword tomb, Third would no longer be obstructed by the terrain and would be able to bring out the full might of his lancet knives. At that time, no matter how agile Happy was, it would be impossible for him to continuously avoid the barrage of throwing knives.

Hence, at that moment, running back into the sword tomb and letting time pass with Third there was the wisest choice for him.

”You brat!”

Third saw through the Murong Clan boy's thoughts. He roared and kicked off the ground into the air. When he looked down, Happy's tracks were instantly exposed, and he threw a lancet knife resolutely.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

However, the moment the man leapt up, Happy laughed.

'You want to hit me? You'd do better if you used Tang Sect's Scattered Palm.'

Third might have been able to hit all the inexperienced villagers using his simple technique with hidden weapons, but against Happy who had great combat experience, it was obvious that it was not enough.

Whoosh!

With his clothes flapping. Happy executed a Python Flip right on time, and his body miraculously rolled over and leapt into the air. The motion made it seem like he stopped in the air for a moment before landing on the ground.

Right after avoiding the lancet knives, he tapped the ground and executed a Shooting Stars Chase the Moon to quickly pass by the third tomb to his left before Third could throw his second knife. This submerged him in the darkness.

”And where do you think you can hide?!”

Third gritted his teeth, sucked in a deep breath, and chased after him.

Happy was a person from the Murong Clan, and he had even seen their faces. If Third could not kill him, the consequences would be dire. Therefore, no matter what, he had to kill him in the shortest time possible.

His gaze darkened, and a faint white aura surged out from his Dantian region. It quickly flowed through his entire body. Then, the distance he could close with one step instantly became much wider. In an instant, he found Happy's tracks.

Happy said nothing.

He could hear the sound of wind brought by the great force behind him, and he could also sense the pressure from it. A light crease appeared between his eyebrows.

The robber had actually managed to enter a qi realm. Now, things were looking to be a little bad for him, because Third had decided to go all out…

Thud! Thud!

Another two lancet knives were thrown, and Happy felt a chill on his skin. His clothes were torn in two places. The knives, however, were plunged deep into the tomb behind which Happy had dodged. He instantly broke into a cold sweat. Both his enemy's strength and speed had very obviously increased.

Whoosh!

Before he could react, Third Tomb Robber jumped a few times to land right in front of Happy. Great killing intent could be seen in his eyes.
