Chapter 784: Happy Arrived!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“As long as someone from Class One Hall can receive one sword slash from me without dying, I will agree to your request.”
Responsible Hero’s arrogant answer angered Drifting Sword, who had been watching by the side coldly for a long time. He said colly, “If I can receive one of your sword slashes, are you going to immediately join White Robe Sect?”
“You won’t be able to.”
Responsible Hero’s gaze landed on Drifting Sword.
Drifting Sword instantly laughed. “How would you know without trying—”
Before he managed to finish speaking, a dazzling and sacred snowflake bloomed in front of Drifting Sword’s eyes.
Drifting Sword’s intentions of activating his body fortification and moving his body was quickly vanquished. He did not have time to do anything, and his vision swiftly turned black.
“You’ve already issued the duel for a long time, but you never attacked. I’ve already given you a chance.”
Responsible Hero seemed to have done something by accident. He redirected his gaze from Drifting Sword’s corpse on the ground to Barren Murderer, who had a solemn expression on his face.
“I heard that your Undying King of Abyss Art has incredibly domineering defenses, and even Happy cannot kill you in one go, and you also managed to master Heaven and Earth Great Shift from Persia. You must be the strongest person in Class One Hall. Does Dream Clouds intend to have you receive my sword slash?”
Barren Murderer was still immersed in the dazzling light that had suddenly rose, and his eyes were fixed on the bloody gash on Drifting Sword’s throat. He did not say anything even after a long time.
He knew Drifting Sword’s strength very clearly!
During the battle at Yangzhou, many of the elites from Class One Hall were not his opponent, and his skills had already reached perfection. His strength was not any weaker than Barren Murderer himself.
This sort of elite had not been able to do anything in front of Responsible Hero...
That sword slash just now, and that speed...
It was so fast that it was inconceivable!
This was Ximen Chuixue’s sword draw?!
Even his body fortification had been instantly destroyed! Was this a peerless sword slash that could instantly kill top-class players?
Barren Murderer stared at Responsible Hero with eyes shining with excitement and a light that said he was eager to fight against Responsible Hero!
Even though Drifting Sword’s strength was about the same as Barren Murderer’s, when it came to body fortification, Undying King of Abyss Art was something that no one in the current World of Martial Arts could compare to. If he just had to withstand one single sword slash, Barren Murderer was absolutely confident that he could live through it.
When he saw that Barren Murderer was rendered speechless and dazed, Responsible Hero said nothing. He turned around and intended to leave.
“Wait.” Barren Murderer called out to Responsible Hero from behind him. “Did you just mention that if someone from Class One Hall can receive your sword slash, you will join Class One Hall?”
When he heard this, Responsible Hero turned around slowly, and a blaze burned in his eyes. “Do you want to try?”
“I have full intention to do so!”
“Very well.” Responsible Hero said nothing and extended an invitation for a duel.
Buzz!
A golden flag was erected in the middle of the air between the duo before it swiftly disappeared.
When they saw this, the people around the area avoided them.
“Same rules. I’ll give you the chance to attack first.” Responsible Hero took a small step back and widened the distance between them. His tone did not change. He sounded as arrogant as before. In fact, he did not even put his hand on his sword hilt. He looked incredibly calm.
Barren Murderer laughed arrogantly. He activated Undying King of Abyss Art without holding back, and his skin instantly turned from light brown to white before it quickly turned black. All the skin that was exposed to air instantly turned jet black, and there was even a faint metallic glow to it. His entire being now resembled an abnormal creature, and he exuded a very thick aura of death.
When he noticed the transformation in Barren Murderer’s body and presence, for the first time ever, Responsible Hero was surprised.
Then, as Barren Murderer’s qi continuously rose once he activated his qi realm, Responsible Hero’s gaze gradually turned grave. He took another step backward, and his right hand slowly went to his sword hilt.
For some unknown reason, Responsible Hero felt a little threatened by the thick black smoke that Barren Murderer released around him. It was a death threat, and his body instinctively reacted to it.
Once they saw the grave expression on Responsible Hero’s face, the Class One Hall members around them looked excited.
For the first time ever, someone managed to make Responsible Hero’s arrogant expression which had never changed since yesterday change, and this person was their vice hall master. There was just no way they would not feel excited.
However, only Barren Murderer knew that the thick black smoke that he released around him was the poisonous fog that he released once he activated his Undying King of Abyss Art to the limit. It had the effect of weakening his enemy’s abilities.
He immediately used his killing move at the start of the battle to make sure that he could receive Responsible Hero’s sword slash!
But unfortunately, Responsible Hero noticed it, and he took that one step back to coincidentally get himself out of the area of the poisonous fog. He also resolutely drew his sword.
Clang!
Barren Murderer might have been one hundred and twenty percent on guard, but he still did not expect that Responsible Hero will choose this moment to take a step back and attack. He had even chosen the perfect timing to attack—right at the moment when his guard dropped to its lowest.
A string of dazzling and sacred snowflakes flashed past his eyes.
Barren Murderer’s expression immediately changed.
An incredibly sharp force that was very determined and resolute instantly ripped through his throat. A liquid gushed out madly from the tear.
Thud!
He fell to his knees before he fell face first on the street, right in front of the entrance. The group of Class One Hall members were frightened, and they panicked!
They did not expect that Barren Murderer would not be able to escape from the fate of being killed by one sword slash as well.
“You can search for others as well.”
Responsible Hero slowly and indifferently sheathed his sword. He turned around and was prepared to walk through the door.
“As expected of Ximen Chuixue’s disciple. You do live up to your name.”
But at that moment, a clear voice came from a high spot on the roof across them, and it traveled into everyone’s ears like a demonic sound, causing Responsible Hero to stop when he was prepared to return to the courtyard.
Responsible Hero was already a little bored of drawing his sword against bronze puppets every day, and when there was someone who came up to him to die under his sword so that he could understand and improve his sword technique from battles, he will welcome them.
He turned around without hesitation and said to the person who stood high on the roof and whose face he could not see clearly, “If you’re here to challenge me to a duel, I might as well fight against you as well instead of coming in and out all the time.”
“You’re very confident. But I’m a rather strange person. If I can receive one of your sword slashes, I will not be able to worship you like Class One Hall is offering to do by giving you a high position, and I can’t offer you an exorbitant monthly salary or a divine weapon at the fourth echelon either. What should I do?”
“You’re indeed a strange person.” Responsible Hero frowned and stared at the person standing at the high spot on the roof. He seemed to be a person who lived freely and was not bound by rules.
Responsible Hero said, “The people who come here all want me to join their sect, and the conditions they offer are usually very high. Since you have nothing, why did you come here?”
“I came over here this time to see just how One Emperor lost to you and just how strong you are.”
Right when he finished speaking, the players in the alley burst into commotion.
“Oh.” Responsible Hero did not fly into a rage, but astonishment did flash briefly in his eyes. “You’re the first person who refuses to believe that I won against One Emperor. Are you saying that you’re here purely to challenge me?”
“I wouldn’t say I’m challenging you.” The young man on the roof jumped lightly, somersaulted in the air, and landed in front of Responsible Hero lightly and in a relaxed manner. Then, he revealed a face that caused the Class One Hall members around him to suck in sharp breaths. “I’m just here to witness the sword draw from Ximen Chuixue’s successor.”
Happy arrived!
