Chapter 862: Clear Sword River

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The martial arts the eight great elites of evil cult practiced practically all came out of Sky Demon Book. All of them were highly skilled, and they also had various methods at their disposal. Xi Yin, who stood in front of them right now, was the fourth strongest among all the other fighters from the eight sects in the evil cult. He was only weaker than Empress Yin, Evil King, and Demon General, and he was known as the Priest. His Heavenly Purple Aura Net had already reached perfection, and once martial artists were trapped by the net, they will definitely be destroyed by an endless wave of attacks, and they will not be able to fight back at all. In fact, even if they called for help, help will not come.

However, right now, Shi Feixuan and Wan Wan had officially reached a breakthrough and arrived at Myth Realm. Even though they were weaker than Xi Yin, they were not completely helpless in front of him.

Palm shadows flew everywhere.

At the moment Heavenly Purple Aura Net went to envelope them, Shi Feixuan attacked resolutely. Waves of white sword forces intersected with each other in the air and quickly formed a dazzling sword river that illuminated the night sky!

Whoosh!

The snow white sword forces traveled with the momentum of a river charging out of a dam nonstop with a bang!

Whoosh!

The fierce waves of sword qi rose to the sky!

The sword river that exploded forth instantly contained great power. They forcefully tore open a gap in the purple heavenly net.

Priest Xi Yin let out a strange cry in his shock and anger. “Kind Boathouse’s Sword classic!”

Unfortunately, he was no longer able to avoid it. He was struck by the remaining force from the sword river. Blood appeared on his chest, and he was pushed 328 feet away.

But Shi Feixuan was not in a much better condition.

The result of activating the secret technique that was the Sword Classic was that it brought a huge burden on the body. Besides, she had Wan Wan beside her, who was in charge of holding the fort for Xi Yin. When she saw that Shi Feixuan was no longer generating qi, she increased the effect of Great Sky Demon Art unthinkingly. At the same time, she executed two palm-generated gusts of wind discreetly and quietly!

“Happy, go!” When she said this, Shi Feixuan suddenly noticed the powerful gusts of wind charging at her. In her feeble state, she was absolutely unable to dodge it. She withstood Wan Wan’s palm strikes head on. She swayed, and her petite body landed in the distance like a kite with its string snapped.

Happy was busy dealing with Ralston on his side.

When he saw that Shi Feixuan was in a bad situation, he chased after her without hesitation.

“Thinking of leaving?” Ralston had already made preparations to fight at full strength. When he saw that Happy wanted to cast him aside again, he instantly felt anger burn in him. He exerted force in his legs and executed Dragon and Elephant Shifts. The ground within a circular area of dozens of feet instantly trembled nonstop.

An invisible wave of impact went spreading outward madly in an attempt to stop Happy from circulating his true qi and affecting his movement speed.

Unfortunately for him, when Happy landed on the ground, he did not show any signs of freezing and just continued charging to the place where Shi Feixuan was sent flying.

When he saw this, Ralston was instantly dumbfounded.

‘How can the Dragon and Elephant Shifts I created be unable to cause any effect on Happy?’

In his puzzlement, a violent and fierce power from his Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm suddenly came rebounding at him from the ground.

Bang!

He felt a weight against his chest. Ralston’s momentum in his chase instantly came to a stop by this impact that was mixed with layers of qi force. He stopped moving.

When he stopped, the distance between the two quickly widened to more than ninety-eight feet.

“Shifting Stars, what a move...” Ralston glared at Happy’s back with great gloom, and he completely gave up on the chase.

Even though he did not need to be too wary of even Myth Realm martial artists because of Dragon and Elephant Wisdom Palm, when he faced Happy, he was swathed with the feeling of not knowing where to attack.

Although he could make sure that he will not lose when he fought against Happy, he could not control Happy if he wanted to fight against him or leave, and this feeling was the same as Ralston losing.

*****

Happy was not in a good condition at that moment.

Shi Feixuan was already heavily injured while she lay in his arms.

Even though that heavy Ralston will not be able to chase after him, Xi Yin and Wan Wan had decided to work together in pursuing him. One of them was not injured badly, and he was ranked at the fourth place among the eight great elites of the evil cult, and the other was a martial artist who just reached Myth Realm. Her strength was not inferior to Shi Feixuan either.

Even if Shi Feixuan was in perfect condition, even if they fought against them, there was a high possibility that they will lose. Besides, Shi Feixuan was completely powerless to fight back now.

Even though he had a beautiful lady in his arms, Happy did not have any thoughts of admiring her beauty. He summoned his Hoof Shadow and quickly activated the skill to fuse with his horse before he made his horse run madly.

“Murong Clan boy, leave Shi Feixuan behind, and I will spare you!” While Xi Yin chased after Happy madly from behind him, he did not forget to speak to frighten Happy.

Wan Wan’s tone was much gentler. “Young Swordsman Happy, I suggest that you stop trying to save the damsel in distress. Your horse can support you in fleeing, but when it comes to two... Hehe... You won’t be able to run, you know?”

Happy could only laugh wryly.

While the skill to fuse with the horse can increase his movement speed, when two people’s weight pushed down on the horse, even Hoof Shadow will not be able to handle it. Its speed remained at its normal condition, and no matter what Happy did, it would not speed up.

If Happy did not occasionally execute finger attacks behind him, they would have both been captured by the evil cult a long time ago.

However, the two people behind him were still closing the distance between them continuously. They will be able to catch up to Happy and Shi Feixuan in less than half a minute.

“Young Swordsman Happy, put me down and go. I will not cause you to lose your life because of me.” Shi Feixuan might be injured badly, but her mind was still clear. However, after she was struck twice by Wan Wan, her body was limp, and she could not summon a lot of strength. When she saw that Wan Wan and Xi Yin were dozens of feet behind them, anxiety shone in her eyes.

But if Shi Feixuan could see where the problem was, there was no way Happy could not see it.

If they continued running like this, Wan Wan and Xi Yin will soon catch up. At that time, Happy will have to fight two against one with an injured person in his hands. There was no doubt who the victors will be, and he can even think about how the fight will end with his toes.

“Miss Shi, I only have one question. We’ve already found out the exact details of what is going, so can we report to the marshal and say that we’ve accomplished our task?”

“Since Priest Xi Yin and Witch Wan Wan are together, there is no doubt that the reconnoiterers have been killed. When we go back, it’s only natural that we can go back and report our work to the marshal and prove the Prince of Qin innocent, but the marshal might not believe in you if you tell him alone, that is unless two other people are willing to scout out this area away from the camp and report the situation to him as well,” Shi Feixuan said.

“What if you are the one telling him personally? Will the marshal believe in you?” Happy continued asking.

“That is...” Shi Feixuan nodded honestly. “If I personally explain the situation with the marshal, then with the trustworthiness of Kind Boathouse serving as a guarantee, the marshal will definitely believe in me, but now...”

“Then it’s alright.” Happy quickly brought out a Small Reversion Pill from his Universe Bag and shoved it into Shi Feixuan’s mouth. “Leave on the horse, I’ll block them for a while.”

“No! You’re be alone—”

No matter what, Shi Feixuan was someone whose actions had already transcended the confines of worldly ethics. When she heard Happy’s suggestion, the emotions in her heart surged madly.

But Happy had already made his decision!

It was impossible for him to have anything happen to Shi Feixuan. Instead of having both of them die, it was better if he sent Shi Feixuan away while he stayed to stop the enemy.

He did not give Shi Feixuan the chance to refuse what he suggested. He flicked his wrist and handed the reins into Shi Feixuan’s hands. He then held his breath and jumped. At the instant he jumped off the horse, he whipped his Hoof Shadow’s butt!

The horse was in pain, and it instantly ran swiftly.

“I’ll chase the girl from Kind Boathouse. I’ll leave the boy to you.” Priest Xi Yin managed to tell what Happy was planning, and he was prepared to charge past Happy without slowing down at all.

But it was clear that he underestimated Happy.

Happy flicked his wrist, and sword glares that filled the air went flying at Xi Yin like raindrops. At the same time, a snow white glare shot out of his hand to shoot toward Wan Wan.

It was Little Li Flying Dagger!

Right when he attacked, Happy used his full strength, and killing intent burned in him.
