The stronger a person was, the more likely he will use the simplest and most direct method to win against his opponent.

This was verified on Zhao Deyan!

When he noticed that the First Soul Returning Claw did not cause any substantial damage on Happy, Zhao Deyan resolutely gave up on using the First Soul Returning Claw. His cloak shuddered, and it turned into a purple longspear that was as hard as steel. He pointed it at Happy.

‘He’s serious now!’ Happy’s gaze darkened, but Happy did not dare have Zhao Deyan take the first strike next time. His Noble Sword landed in his hands, and he drew it out with a clang without any flourish.

Ting!

A sharp and cold arc-shaped sword force descended from the sky with a mighty dragon roar under the starlight. A small, silver dragon crushed the purple longspear in Zhao Deyan’s hands.

A clear metallic clang sounded.

Under Happy and Yu Yan’s dumbfounded gazes, the purple cloak that had turned into a longspear was crushed because it could not bear with the clash, just as Happy expected it would. The pieces flew everywhere, but the clear metallic sound alerted Happy.

He sensed the sturdy feeling that came from the clash, and Happy immediately knew that there was something strange about the cloak. He activated Petite Dragon calmly and turned into an afterimage.

Among the torn purple pieces of cloth that flew everywhere in the air was a black recondite steel longspear that instantly pierced through the afterimage Happy left behind on the spot like a black bolt of lightning in the galaxy.

‘Zhao Deyan, what a man… He’s truly a brutal and ruthless guy.’

There was actually a longspear that was still hidden under the cloak. It was no wonder why he could hold the cloth so easily just now.

Happy knew that it was a close call just now.

But he was not out of danger just yet.

The spear stabbing at air and missing its target reminded Zhao Deyan of how bothersome his target was. His gaze darkened, and he changed his tactic without hesitation.

Even though Happy evaded the attack in time, his Petite Dragon only helped him with dodging in a small area. It will not help him dodge the attack completely.

Bang!

Zhao Deyan turned the thrust into a sweep, and Happy was immediately struck by the sweep. He looked as if he had been struck by lightning, and he was knocked more than thirty feet away.

However, Happy did not react slowly this time.

Once he activated Petite Dragon, he immediately followed with activating Arhat Body. Most of his qi was gathered at one spot, and it violently scattered the great force that came from the sweep. The damage he suffered was not great, but he still had quite a lot of his qi weakened.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Once he landed, Happy left behind six deep footprints on the ground before he managed to completely negate the force from the sweep.

But Happy’s momentum as he retreated did not weaken. Instead, with each step he took, he “flew back” even faster, and each footstep he left behind on the plains was deeper than the last.

His momentum as he flew back was so fast it was unbelievable!

Yu Yan found it strange in the beginning, but she soon noticed that Zhao Deyan had vanished from the spot at some point of time.

Her heart tensed. Yu Yan quickly stared at the direction where Happy was, and he finally noticed the gray and vague figure belonging to Zhao Deyan. He chased after Happy like a maggot attached to a corpse.

Yu Yan finally understood.

Happy had Nine Yang Divine Skill with him, and his spiritual senses was much stronger than the average person. His judgment and precognition to danger was much faster than others, which was why he had used the momentum to swiftly retreat. If she had been in his place, she might have already been killed by Zhao Deyan.

“Myth Realm…” Yu Yan stared at the two swiftly moving figures, where one retreated and the other gave chase. She did not blink, because she did not want to miss even the slightest scene. After all, when it was a fight between powerful martial artists, the victor will usually be decided in an instant.

And just as she expected, once Happy negated all the force in the sweep, he subsequently used the power from Zhao Deyan’s spear to retreat at full speed, which allowed him to see all of Zhao Deyan’s actions.

Without the cloak serving to hide things, Zhao Deyan’s attacks were all in full display.

With the opportunities presented to him because of how quickly he was moving, even though only three short seconds had passed, it was as if a long time had passed.

Clang!

He flicked his wrist, and his Noble Sword instantly turned into a dozen stars that filled the air around him. It instantly locked down all the directions around Zhao Deyan.

“Child’s play!”
