31 Eight Trigrams, Nine Palaces (2/2)
”You have to take revenge for my brother and Young Li!”
The four did not stop cheering Happy from the side, but that was all they did. Including Eastern Green Gate, none of them had the courage to rashly join the battle against a powerful martial artist at the peak of Gate Realm.
Even though Happy's sword technique did not seem to have reached the tenth realm, he still remained calm under the second bandit chief's fierce attacks, which had a power similar to fierce wind blowing at fallen leaves. Happy moved back and forth with ease, and Eastern Green Gate came to a conclusion that he could not do this after he examined himself.
The four were new players after all. They did not have much experience and could not tell that Happy used his experience of martial arts to fight freely against the second bandit chief. They could only see that Happy could fight on equal ground against the second bandit chief in a close-quarters fight, and they were incredibly excited.
Whenever the second bandit chief roared and cursed Happy, the four would respond by cursing up a storm at the second bandit chief.
However, as time passed, the four gradually noticed that there was no end in sight to the fight.
One attack came after another.
As they continued watching, they gradually discovered that the skills used had become old. Nothing new was being shown by either side.
Qian Kunzi's lips twitched.
”Er… Say, don't you guys… find this strange?”
”What?”
Azure Wolf was high in spirits as he watched the fight, so he had responded without even turning his head around. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
He practiced saber techniques, so from the second bandit chief's fierce and strong attacks, he felt that he had gained a little enlightenment, and he was filled with gusto.
However, to the others, this was not much. The second bandit chief's unrelenting strikes were a little shameless, but Happy's situation was even stranger. He moved at an appropriate speed, and his attention was focused entirely on the fight. With time, his movements became even lighter and gained an otherworldly air. He looked like a martial arts fanatic who had forgotten everything around him so nothing could make his attention waver.
They watched for a long time, and Eastern Green Gate finally realized in grief that the duel to the death between the duo had turned into a session of two people comparing notes about their martial arts by sparring!
Happy did not show any intention to use his throwing knives. The second bandit chief could not let go of the death of his brothers, and fighting for a long period of time was not beneficial for him. The more he fought, the more agitated and angry he became. Then, a faint aura swiftly appeared. It attached itself to the broadsword, and it began to glow with a faint light.
Happy's eyes focused, and a hint of happiness appeared in his eyes.
”Just in time!”
He turned the tip of his sword, and a whistle arose! His momentum suddenly changed. His gentle defenses and counterattacks from before were gone, and the force of his strikes became much swifter and fiercer! The fallen leaves in the forest moved quietly along with the wind from the sword.
As the wind roared, it blew against all the other objects in the forest even more violently. In fact, it blew against the second bandit chief's leather armor, and since it was inlaid with metal, it caused breathtaking sparks.
When the saber and sword crossed each other, their users' murderous intention could be seen. Wind blew, and the leaves danced madly in the air!
Even though the force of Happy's strikes had changed, he was still at a disadvantage. There were many times when he dared not clash head on with the second bandit chief, and this gave his opponent greater momentum. Things seemed to be progressing in a dangerous direction for Happy.
At this moment, Happy finally stopped preserving his strength. When he retreated, he managed to find time to draw a lancet knife and threw it, thus rectifying the situation in which he was bound to lose.
It was a short clash since the situation of the battle changed, but the of both sides were incredibly dangerous. If either person was the slightest bit careless, they would die.
The four people watching felt their hearts tremble violently!
It was only then that they realized that the two people who had been fighting for a long while had just revealed their true abilities.
In truth, the second bandit chief had been hiding his true strength all along, and it was the same for Happy!
”The eldest senior brother of the Murong Clan… what a man you are…”
Eastern Green Gate had watched the fight for a long time and shook his head repeatedly in disbelief. In the end, he let out a long breath in regret.
Before he finished speaking, the second bandit chief's calf was sliced by another lancet knife. With wounds left from every single time he clashed swords with Happy, he now looked like a bloody mess and appeared extremely terrifying.
”My resolve to kill you will never change! You brat, I will come and take revenge on you someday…” The second bandit chief's movements became slower, and finally, the thought of retreating rose in him.
However, Happy did not intend to let this ”old friend” who had been fighting against him for so long escape in one piece!
When he was forced back by a slash from the second bandit chief's broadsword, he put his Noble Sword into his Universe Bag without hesitation. At the instant the second bandit chief turned around and jumped into the air, two lancet knives slipped into Happy's hands at the same time…
Clang!
Thud!
The second bandit chief swung his sword to block the knives, but unfortunately for him, he only managed to block one of them… With a chilling glare, the other one sank into his chest without facing any obstructions!
