360 Lu Mingyue’s Motives (2/2)
The group of people at the entrance of the royal mausoleum were all great players. Some of them could tell many of the things that happened. Their eyes sparkled, and they gasped in their hearts while they enjoyed watching the fight to their hearts' content.
”As expected of the top player on the Famous People Rank.”
”He actually managed to counterattack even under such a great disadvantage. Lu Mingyue was nearly hit as well.”
”That bastard Lu Mingyue also reacted very quickly. He didn't panic even when danger was at his doorstep. Those black embroidery needles should be the Shadowless Needles that are rumored to be able to break defenses.”
Both fighters took a step backward.
But as a whole, Lu Mingyue was still the one who suffered a loss, though it was not clear to the eyes of the public.
Even with the home advantage of Sunflower Aura, not only had he been forced to execute Soft Palm Strikes thrice and use his precious Shadowless Needles once—which caused him to use up a lot of qi—he had not been able to force Happy to use Petit Dragon. His body fortification was still at the peak of its condition as well, and that was while he had not equipped himself in his best gear.
Lu Mingyue could already sense great pressure on his shoulders!
Even though he had improved his Sunflower Aura, Happy's Golden Bell Cocoon also seemed to have reached a higher level.
'This won't be an easy fight.'
However, he could not retreat while there were so many people watching him. He could only grit his teeth and continue. But Lu Mingyue no longer dared to attack at will. If Happy seized another chance and counterattacked him, he might need to use up his precious Shadowless Needles and his qi to get himself out of trouble. If that continued, not only would he lose all his advantage, he might even end up losing very quickly.
Just when Lu Mingyue was in a predicament…
”The royal mausoleum has opened!” someone suddenly shouted.
Lu Mingyue felt great joy in his heart.
It was clear that Happy had come for the treasures in the royal mausoleum. If he missed the time to enter, it would mean that he would be held up by a day.
Lu Mingyue did not show his glee on his face, but he raised his hands, and eight embroidery needles appeared between his fingers. He stared at Happy calmly. 'I'd like to see how long you can last.'
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Four flying needles shot out at the same time, but they were not led by any threads.
Happy moved slightly, but Lu Mingyue's second wave of needles immediately came at him, forcing him to change his position again.
”There's nothing else to see.”
The people in the area were not idiots. They could tell what Lu Mingyue's motives were at first glance, and their interest in the fight instantly faded away.
Happy scowled as well.
Even though he could not quite accept such an ending, he had indeed come for the royal mausoleum. When he saw Lu Mingyue attack in a manner that was very similar to that of a brute, he was speechless.
'Oh well.'
He turned around without hesitation and removed himself from the battlefield!
”Thinking of leaving?”
When he saw Happy turning around with the intention of entering the royal mausoleum, Lu Mingyue became even more smug. He laughed long and hard in the air, and his Sunflower Aura spread out swiftly. He chased after him with light movements while he threw his embroidery needles nonstop.
But unfortunately, without threads controlling them, the embroidery needles, which seemed like hidden weapons on the surface, simply could not touch Happy. He did not even have to activate his body fortification. He only moved around in a simple fashion, and the embroidery needles all landed on the ground behind him.
When he arrived in front of the entrance, everyone had yet to enter.
Lu Mingyue seemed to be intent on forcing Happy to be the first one to enter the royal mausoleum. His attacks became faster and sharper!
Happy could no longer be bothered to fight against Lu Mingyue. He vanished into the entrance of the royal mausoleum without hesitation under Lu Mingyue's gleeful gaze.
”Hahahahaha… I'd like to see how long you can last in front of Ghost Face Wall in the royal mausoleum!”
Lu Mingyue stood airborne above the entrance of the royal mausoleum with a cold gaze in his eyes. He laughed nonstop.
The people at the entrance had stern expressions on their faces, and they frowned at what they saw. However, they did not want to get into misfortune by stepping on Lu Mingyue's tail. Besides, when they thought about it, if Happy died before Ghost Face Wall, it would mean that they had lost their greatest competitor, and it would be a good thing.
With various thoughts in their heads, no one entered the royal mausoleum.
