572 Nine Yang Divine Skill (1/2)
When Happy returned to the game, he rode on his horse to the foot of Wudang Mountain with dust billowing behind him.
”Ah, it's Young Swordsman Happy. You came from afar, eh? Welcome!”
Happy ran into Song Yuanqiao leading a group of Wudang Sect disciples outside the gate to the sect. There were a few more disciples behind him, and they looked as if they were prepared to head out to carry out their quests.
Happy quickly got down from his horse, and under the players' excited gazes, he moved forward to greet Song Yuanqiao.
”Great Hero Song.”
Happy was neither humble nor arrogant, and he gave the impression that he was modest and polite. This was the unique style that the Murong Clan disciples had when they traveled across the land.
Song Yuanqiao laughed. ”Young Swordsman Happy, you displayed your splendour in Hero's Mountain Villa. Not only did the Murong Clan share your glory, even the six great sects shared your glory! You did well!”
”Might I ask where you are going?”
”Oh, young swordsman, you might not know this, but after the battle at Hero's Mountain Villa, the disciples from the evil cult have begun to appear frequently near Wudang Sect. They robbed and injured many of our disciples as well as the disciples from other sects. There are also some elites from those who walk down the evil path who have affiliated themselves with the evil cult, and they help them with their evil deeds.
”I am just trying my best to do what has been entrusted to me. I have decided to head off to help the Ming Cult disciples at Phoenix Sun Branch in case the evil cult brings a disaster on their heads.”
It might have been nothing special if the two people had just exchanged a few simple words, but the group of players behind were incredibly shocked. What Song Yuanqiao told Happy was basically their quest. In just a few words, Song Yuanqiao showed just how much he trusted Happy and how fond he was of him.
The group then instantly became a lot more trusting of the rumors that had been spreading around over the past few days. They said that Happy had taken the initiative to give up on Zhou Zhiruo's affections because he wanted to win over Wudang Sect and even Ming Cult.
The players gasped in amazement while standing behind Song Yuanqiao. 'The methods of the top-ranked player on Famous People Rank are indeed extraordinary!'
”I am in a hurry to meet Reverend Zhang because of something urgent, and you are busy too, so I will not bother you. Farewell!” Happy discreetly stopped the possibility of Song Yuanqiao asking him to come along with them on the quest.
And it was just as he expected.
”I see, so you're here to meet my master. That's good too. I hope we meet each other again in the future!” Song Yuanqiao wrapped his hands around his sword and saluted Happy in a sensible manner.
Happy also wrapped his fist in his palm.
”Yes, I hope that you will have a smooth journey with your group!”
Once he bid farewell to Great Hero Song and his group, Happy did not dare to be negligent. He quickly went up the mountain and met the otherworldly and sage-like Zhang Sanfeng at Taichi Temple.
”I, Happy, greet Reverend Zhang.”
His voice was clear and loud. There was even a hint of excitement in it.
Zhang Sanfeng smiled and nodded slowly. ”Young Swordsman Happy, you are too polite. You used your strength to overcome the other heroes in the martial arts tournament, which shows that you are an outstanding person among the young disciples. It is truly something worth celebrating!”
”Reverend Zhang, you praise me too much. It is the result of my seniors showing favor to me.”
”You are humble and polite, instead of being arrogant after your victory. The disciples of the Murong Clan are indeed extraordinary.” Zhang Sanfeng flung his horsetail whisk, and when he smiled, there was a hint of admiration on his kindly face.
”Song Qingshu came back to reflect on his actions while he faces Wudang's mountain wall, and Emei Sect's Sect Leader Zhou Zhiruo went into isolation to train, and this is all thanks to your efforts. I have no way of repaying you, but with this Wudang Sect's Nine Yang Skill. I hope that you will be successful in learning Nine Yang Divine Skill, that you will treat the affairs of the world as your responsibility, support those in the right path, and aid the strong, and help the weak.”
”I will surely remember your teachings, Reverend Zhang,” Happy answered once he took Wudang Sect's Nine Yang Skill.
The system notification arrived right after.
”Ding!
”You obtained the third page of Nine Yang Divine Skill, Wudang Sect's Nine Yang Skill. Your Golden Essence Nine Yang Skill has just been upgraded to the complete Nine Yang Divine Skill!”
A searing red light shone. The Wudang Sect's Nine Yang Skill turned into a flash of red light that seeped into Happy's body. The next moment, astonishing heatwave rushed through the Taichi temple.
Under Zhang Sanfeng's gentle and calm gaze, Happy subconsciously sat down cross-legged and circulated Nine Yang Divine Skill. The air in the hall instantly turned into dazzling from waves of red qi that eagerly surged toward Happy to gather in him.
