Chapter 1126 - Cannot Inherit, A Prize (1/2)
“Boss Happy, I… I’d like to join Lovely Land!”
Once Little North said this in the feast, he suddenly felt the area around him fall silent. He gulped, and he immediately felt countless gazes trained on him. The courage that had risen in him because of the wine vanished without a trace.
However, Happy’s subsequent reply caused him to forget about all the gazes around him and his nervousness.
“You want to join Lovely Land? Sure, welcome aboard.”
The feast was now drop-dead silent.
The people around them were once again rendered silent. Their gazes on Little North were now filled with envy, jealousy, and hate!
They originally thought that Happy would at least come up with a whole spiel of upholding justice or give the boy a warning. They did not expect that he would agree to it so easily. Besides, the boy might be the first member who joined Lovely Land through Happy.
‘He’s so lucky!’
When they saw Little North excitedly look at the sect emblem that appeared on his chest, many of the people in the hall were tempted.
They must admit, this was a very good chance to join Lovely Land…
If even Little North, who was a boy who did not have a lot of experience in the world of martial artists, could join Lovely Land, then they definitely had hope. In fact, Happy might even recognize their worth.
“My Young Friend Happy.”
Just when the people had their emotions surge and were eager to take action, someone suddenly spoke, and because of him, the words that were at the tip of many people’s tongues died away.
Everyone simultaneously cast their gazes at Song Que and Ningdao Qi, whom they had been ignoring all this while.
Only these two old men could call Happy as their young friend in Song House.
“House master.” Happy had a thought appear in his head. He turned around and faced Song Que, because he knew that the main dish was here!
This time, he had completed his quest, but he did not receive the system notification telling him that he received his reward after the completion of the quest, and this caused him to feel incredibly perplexed. Right now, when he heard Song Que speak, he finally released a sigh of relief, but soon, he became high-spirited.
The other people in the mansion also watched them.
They could tell from Song Que’s stern expression that he had something to say.
Song Que said with a stern and serious expression, “My Young Friend Happy, if it were not for you helping me this time and if Brother Ningdao had not appeared, it’s impossible for me to force Evil King Shi Zhixuan to back down.”
“Hehe. Brother Song, stop trying to put a feather in my hat. I’ve never even drawn my sword from the moment I joined the fight.” Ningdao Qi smiled and denied any sort of contribution to the fight.
Song Que smiled faintly. “Originally, if I run into a youngster who has such outstanding talent, I would definitely want to hand you my legacy, but I can tell that you should have inherited the legacy of an elite from Shaolin Temple who has stepped into the Dao of heaven. Am I wrong to say that you are practising Tendon Changing Classic and Marrow Cleansing Classic?”
Happy was stunned silent.
‘Is there any relation between me getting this reward and the martial arts I inherited from Shaolin Temple?’
Even though he was puzzled, he did not show any hint of it on his face. He nodded. “It seems like I was not able to hide it from you.”
“I have just taken my first step into the Dao of heaven. Compared to your master, I am far more inferior. Hence, I can naturally not bring myself to give you this legacy.”
The people were instantly able to discern the reason behind why Song Que said this. The martial artists who had become One with the World also had things to consider when they handed over their legacy. They could not hand their legacy over to a disciple of someone who was also One with the World.
Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and the others put on attentive expressions in silence.
‘So, Happy has already inherited the legacy of a peerless elite who has become One with the World!’
Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy already attracted their attention, but now, Song Que mentioned that he could not hand over his legacy to Happy. This was the first time this sort of thing happened. They wanted to know whether this was good news or bad news to Happy. After all, the system would definitely give Happy a compensation that was of an equivalent level to the legacy.
And just as they expected, Song Que said, “That’s why I discussed things with Brother Ning just now. My young friend, you are from Shaolin Temple, and there is no need to question your personality. You are strong, and you do not need my legacy to make you stronger. That’s why I would like you to help me choose someone who can inherit my legacy!”
Happy had been prepared to receive another reward, but when he heard Song Que’s suggestion, he was no longer able to maintain his expression. Surprise bloomed on his face. “I’m… to choose?”
Song Que was calm and undaunted. “Indeed. With your strength, I believe that normal benefits and riches are already not important to you. But the only thing I can present to you is Eight Heavenly Saber Styles. What do you think of this, my young friend?”
When he said this, the hall fell completely silent.
Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and the others finally realized just what sort of fortuitous chance Happy had received.
Even though he could not inherit the legacy himself, Happy had the chance to give the legacy of a martial artist who had become One with the World to someone else. This was practically the same as Song Que giving Happy the chance to create a top-class elite. Since this was the Eight Heavenly Saber Styles from a martial artist who had stepped into the Dao of heaven, this martial art must have already improved to great heights, and it was definitely a peerless martial art.
Phantasmal Shadow was tempted.
Even someone who lived as heroically and freely as Lin Xiao could not help but have his expression change, and he sucked in a sharp breath.
He lamented for Happy for losing the chance to increase his strength but sighed because he had the chance to create a top-class elite for Lovely Land, but that was only if he used it on the right person.
“This is my jade plate. My Young Friend Happy, you are a person of great morality, so please do not reject it. By then, you just need to have the person come to me with the jade plate, and I will definitely teach him or her everything.”
