452 Climb the Tower! (2/2)
Fortunately, Happy had extraordinary abilities and flew in like a feather to control the two Yuan Dynasty soldiers. It was only then that Zhou Zhiruo released a breath of relief.
”Hurry up and sniff this. You can restore your qi once you do.”
Happy quickly arrived in front of the prison cell and gave the antidote to Zhou Zhiruo, who was the closest to the door, so that she could help everyone get rid of the Ten Fragrant Tendon Weakening Powder.
”Thank you for lending us your help, Young Swordsman Happy.”
Zhou Zhiruo was the first to test the antidote. Once she was cured, she quickly administered the antidote to her mistress. Then, she passed the bottle around, and as she watched Happy bring over the key to open the door, she gently prostrated herself to show her gratitude.
”Miss Zhou, you don't have to be so polite.”
Happy could not be bothered to talk much at this point of time. There was only one antidote, and he had to bring it to the elites from the other five sects beneath them. ”Everyone, please don't leave for now. Wait for me to administer the antidote to the people from Shaolin Temple and Wudang Sect, then I'll give the signal. Our people will work together from the inside and outside to conquer Eternal Peace Temple.”
”Thank you for your hard work, Young Swordsman Happy.
Ding Minjun quickly returned the antidote to Happy without saying anything else. She just sat down with her legs crossed and began circulating her qi.
Happy did not dare to be negligent since the area outside had become calm again. The Yuan Dynasty soldiers were being ordered to return to their positions by the thousand-man commanders, so if he dragged things out, some changes might occur.
Whoosh!
There were plenty of elites from Shaolin Temple. Once Happy completed the main quest, his first act was to search for the floor that detained the monks.
It went surprisingly well for him. When he came, the two Yuan Dynasty soldiers had coincidentally turned around, and Happy easily took care of them. He drew his sword, slashed at them, and put his sword back into its sheath again. He then placed their corpses in the seats.
He completed all of that in one breath.
”Young Swordsman Happy?” Abbot Kong Xiang of Shaolin Temple was shocked. ”I see, so Great Swordsman Song came together with you, young patron. How is he now?”
”It's a long story. We can't waste any time right now. Please use the antidote to cure yourselves first.” Once Happy handed over the antidote, he spoke of the plan to form a pincer attack from inside and outside the temple while he opened the lock. ”Master Yuan Hui has a group of people waiting outside the temple for a signal to charge into the temple.
”As for now, Great Swordsman Song has been captured. We can only hope for you to recover your strength soon so that we can break out together.”
”Alright. Shaolin Temple now owes you a favor, young patron.” Kong Xiang's expression became stern, and he gave his orders. ”Everyone, hurry up and circulate your qi, but be quick.”
The monks nodded, which created an incredibly magnificent scene.
”Assassin!”
Just when the monks from Shaolin Temple finished using the antidote, a shrill and piercing warning suddenly came from outside!
Happy quickly shot to the window and took a look. A large group of Yuan Dynasty soldiers surrounded the stone tower where he had tied the grappling hook, and many of them gestured at the third floor of the tall tower. At the same time, a few powerful waves of aura quickly shot up from Mahavira Temple before they flew there.
When Happy saw that, his heart instantly sank because he knew that his operation had been revealed. He did not dare to be negligent then and quickly brought out the signal flare from his bosom and shot it out.
Bang!
A brilliant red light tore through the night sky above Eternal Peace Temple and reached the heavens. Its brightness could be clearly seen in a circular area of three miles from where it was ignited.
Once the signal flare was released, furious roars with the force of an avalanche quickly rose from beyond Eternal Peace Temple. Under the lead of the elites from the six great system-allocated sects, nearly one thousand great fighters broke through the defense set by the Yuan Dynasty soldiers and charged into Eternal Peace Temple.
A'er and A'san had been rushing toward the tall tower when they suddenly heard the grand wave of sound from outside, and their expressions changed. ”This is bad! The princess is in danger!”
They gave up on the tall tower and quickly turned around to go back from where they had come.
But against their expectations, Zhao Min, who held Heavenly Sword, led A'da as well as Divine Arrow Eight Heroes to rush toward the tall tower. When she saw the duo coming back to her, she shouted at them loudly. ”Guard the tall tower! The hostages are in our hands, so those people from the six sects won't dare to use force!”
With that one sentence, she revealed what was crucial in the situation.
