Chapter 1155  : Attack

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Autumn and Spring Sword Formation set up by the Murong Clan Lady and her four servant girls was indeed extraordinary. It already gained a spirit and essence that would not lose to the Four Matchless Sword Formation. When the sword formation was activated, a tornado that was formed by fierce sword forces showed up in the inn, and its momentum was highly aggressive.

But it was a pity, because the person they faced was an elite in the dao of heaven, and the disparity of strength between them was too great. Besides, if Shifting Stars, an ultimate technique from the Murong Clan, could do nothing before the Gu insects, then the Autumn and Spring Sword Formation would be even more helpless before it. When the Gu insects reared through the sorcerer clan’s methods were sent out, the sword formation was destroyed on its own, and the four servant girls were easily forced back.

The Murong Clan Lady was currently at the middle stage of Myth Realm, and she could parry a few more attacks from the Gu insects.

“Murong Clan Lady, your servant girls have great potential. I can take them under my wing and serve them as snacks for my babies. As for you, you’re pretty, and you’re a good seed as well. You can serve as my thirty-seventh concubine.”

“How preposterous!”

Murong Xun flew into a rage. When he saw that his beloved daughter was unable to force the Master of Gu Poison to use his true strength but all five of them were about to be defeated, he was unable to control himself, and he jumped out.

“Hmm?”

The Master of Gu Poison had his eyes sparkle. He flung his sleeves, and a faint sonic boom rang in the air.

A silver thread shot out of his sleeve and sank into the air.

“Careful!”

Murong Xun was at the later stage of Myth Realm. He immediately noticed the Master of Gu Poison’s actions, and his expression instantly changed. A familiar light rose from his body.

Everyone in the inn knew that Murong Xun had activated the ultimate technique of the Murong Clan—Shifting Stars!

It was different from the Murong Clan Lady’s Shifting Stars, the qi flow and light from Murong Xun was clearly more restrained and powerful. it froze a little at the instant it came into the contact with the silver thread that shot at him.

But before the Murong Clan members could have delight appear on their faces...

Thud!

The silver thread suddenly broke free of Shifting Star’s control. It stabbed into Murong Xun’s body fortification and pierced through his arm.

Clang!

Murong Xun was injured. He staggered backward with a grunt, and his sword fell to the floor.

“Clan leader!”

“Protect the clan leader!”

The three old men and the group of Murong Clan elites were shocked. They surrounded him and protected Murong Xun as he retreated. They formed a circle formation around him.

The tides of the struggle of power in the inn were instantly turned.

The sounds of people sucking in sharp breaths immediately rose in the inn.

Everyone stared at the Master of Gu Poison and Hu Baiwan, and they appeared wary.

The clan leader of the Murong Clan—someone at the later stage of Myth Realm—was not the Master of Gu Poison’s enemy at all!

The fight was not over.

The Master of Gu Poison did not seem to want to continue attacking Murong Xun. He snorted coldly and seized the injured Murong Clan Lady with one hand. He laughed madly. “Hahahahaha! I heard that someone in the Murong Clan knows plenty of the martial arts in the world of martial arts, and she also happens to be an intelligent descendant with a quick wit. It will not be a disgrace for you to be my concubine.”

“Dream on!”

The Murong Clan Lady had a resolute gaze. Calmly, she tapped against the floor, and a sudden force exploded from the floor under his feet. While she moved back, the wooden floorboards swept to the Master of Gu Poison, along with a countless amount of wood fragments. She let out a cold snort, and she tapped against the wooden beam behind him lightly. She flicked her sword lightly, and a sword force took the form of a dragon at the tip of her sword. It charged straight at the wooden fragments and broken porcelain and launched a desperate counterattack.

“Good! You’re wild! This is what I want!”

The Master of Gu Poison was not angry, but delighted. He swept at the air with his hand, and the shattered bits in the air instantly lost their aggressive edge they once possessed.

He flung his arm again.

Bang!

A mighty pressure descended on the Murong Clan Lady. She could not even activate Shifting Stars.

The situation was critical. She had a thought pop up in her head. She flipped her wrist around, and her sword slipped from her grip. It flew.

At that moment, both of them were already incredibly close to each other.

The Murong Clan Lady’s sudden attack looked as if it was an attack from heaven. Even the Master of Gu Poison had not been able to react to it immediately. When he turned to the side, the sword drew a faint gash on his chest.

“You’re asking for death!”

The Master of Gu Poison lowered his head to look. His once arrogant eyes instantly turned bloodshot. It was filled with a ruthless look. He seized the air with a hand, and five fierce finger-generated gusts of wind headed to the Murong Clan Lady without hesitation. At that moment, she was laying limply on the floor.

“Milady!”

“No!”

The people from the Murong Clan Lady were still fending against the elusive, silver thread-like Gu insect. When they saw that the fight was swiftly going badly for the Murong Clan Lady, they immediately had their faces turn pale, and they cried out in surprise.

The Murong Clan Lady watched the fierce gusts of wind. They turned into something similar to a ghost’s claw, and they enveloped her with a suffocating pressure. She could not move, and her face gradually turned pale.

During that critical moment...

Clang!

For the time being, everyone ignored the center of the hall. So, they missed a white figure suddenly moving once more.

“No...”

Osaya’s expression changed drastically.

She had been keeping an eye on the Murong Clan. When she noticed that the Murong Clan members did not seem to have recognized the white-robed young man, she quickly understood that Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero might not have any direct contact with the Murong Clan. It was because of it that she temporarily had her attention toward the white-clad young man go slack.

However, what she did not expect was that during the critical moment, the person who took action to save her were not the three Murong Clan grand elders who were at the peak of Myth Realm, but was the person next to her.

The white-clad young man moved too quickly.

When Osaya noticed what was happening, the white-clad young man had already easily shattered the gusts that had already arrived in front of the Murong Clan Lady with a wave of sword qi.

Bang!

The fierce gusts of wind were shattered in front of the Murong Clan Lady.

The powerful impact still caused the Murong Clan Lady to feel horrible. Her delicate body trembled violently, and she blew backwards.

But the Master of Gu Poison did not have an easy time either.

Not only had the mysterious white-clad young man’s slash easily destroy the gusts of wind he generated with his fingers, the remaining force had traveled up the trajectory where they came from and arrived in front of him.

The Master of Gu Poison’s expression changed drastically.

In his hurry, he summoned a Gu insect.

Bang!

The Gu insect the Master of Gu Poison summoned was naturally not something ordinary.

A Mother of Gu Poison Creatures that would be fought over by multiple sorcerer clan’s disciples lost its balance because of the sword qi. The Mother of Gu Poison Creatures was famed for being invulnerable to all attacks, but it was pushed to the side, and it seemed to be dizzy for a moment.

The people in the inn were all people who had great knowledge of the world.

They were able to recognize with just one glance that the rather unfortunate, sparkling thing that the King of Gu Poison had brought out was once the prized creature which had allowed the sect master of Five Venoms become famous.

When the people looked at the white-robed young man, their gazes instantly changed.

The white-robed young man did not attack the King of Gu Poison any further after he managed to force him to move back.

Whoosh!

He moved and arrived in front of the Murong Clan Lady. He did not give her any chance to be shocked. Brusquely, he yanked her to her feet.

“Thank you for saving me, sir.” The Murong Clan Lady was confused for a short moment before she thanked him sincerely. Even though she did not know who he was, his skills made it clear that he was extraordinary, and she was not to be rude to him.

The white-clad young man...

Oh, he should really be referred to as Happy now.

At that moment, Happy stared at the third Murong Clan lady in his arms, and he felt a myriad of complicated and strange emotions in him.

Truly, the world was a small place.

In truth, ever since Happy received the second stone plate from Evil King, he rushed to Heaven Mountain and obtained the Four Matchless Sword Formation from Qing Xue at the Sword of Heavenly Lake Faction. Then, he rode in a carriage and followed a camel fleet to West Region so that he could activate the Dragon Gate Inn Quest, which was a quest that was at the rank of a forbidden land.

However, what surprised Happy was that even after both of them put on a disguise to Dragon Gate Inn, when Happy had Thousand-faced Human Fox activate Dragon Gate Inn in his place, something that he did not expect happened.

The system announcement!

At the moment he activated the quest, a sandstorm rose in the desert. The ruins of the former Dragon Gate Inn came out of the ground, and the world was informed of this.

An unnatural phenomenon has occurred in the desert. A black blizzard, which was only seen once several decades, arrived!

Then, multiple NPCs in West Region started speaking of a legend.

On the day the black blizzard arrived, which meant two days later, the tunnel to the desert palace would appear in the desert.

Those who discover the treasures in the desert palace can create a kingdom!

Fine, Happy accepted the system announcement. He could do nothing about it, anyway.

What made him really frustrated was that he actually had to wait for two more days before he could officially activate Dragon Gate Inn. This made Happy incredibly frustrated. He knew that he had truly miscalculated things this time.

With the span of two days, there was a high possibility that the system could make whatever arrangements it wanted.

Because of it, all the powerful players in the world might gather in this place.

And the truth verified Happy’s guess.

First, all sorts of West Region elites came to observe the ruins of the former Dragon Gate Inn.

Then, the army tasked to protect the borders showed up.

They were soon followed by the mobilization of the Embroidered Uniform Guards from the Chinese plains.

Right now, all the elite players had gathered in this place as well.

Even Hu Baiwan, the richest merchant in the world, heard news about it and brought a large group of elites over.

However, those were not enough to make Happy feel troubled.

The elites from the various religions and schools were insignificant in Happy’s eyes. As for the players, once he revealed his identity and brought out the map, he was certain that no one would dare to compete against him, the one who activated the quest. Even when he had to face off against Hu Baiwan, Happy was confident that with his Full Winds in Long Skies, which he had grinded with every second over the past few days until it reached the sixth realm, he could defeat someone who was already firmly in the dao of heaven.

However, the Murong Clan’s arrival threw a wrench into Happy’s original plan, and it also broke Happy’s calm state of mind. He was forced to break out of his identity as Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero and even expose his identity beforehand.

As he stared into the third Murong Clan Lady’s face—still ethereal as ever—and familiar gaze, Happy could not help but sigh. “The Murong Clan has arrived as well, huh?”

In truth, Happy could say with confidence that he would not hold back if he had to fight against all the people in Dragon Gate Inn, but when it came to the Murong Clan...

Happy scowled, and he felt heavy in his heart.

After all, he could be considered to be a disciple of the Murong Clan, and he still held feelings for them.

The four servant girls from the Murong Clan supported each other and walked over. “Thank you for lending a hand, sir.”

As they spoke, they took the Murong Clan Lady from Happy’s arms.

“I am Murong Xun. Sir, what is your name, and which sage is your master? He is surely in the dao of heaven as well.” It was only at this moment that Murong Xun noticed Happy. His movements were polite.

“I am Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero. Speaking of which, I can be considered to be someone from Gusu City as well.”

“Oh?”

Murong Xun was a little stunned.

Happy knew that Murong Xun was definitely skeptical, but he ignored it.

He flicked his wrist, and a wave of sword qi was drawn out with the tip of his sword. Then, it struck a silver-thread that came charging at him from the side. It showed up, as if it was struck by lightning.

At the moment the Gu insect showed up, the force of the impact sent it flying, and it had all its strength drained from its body. Soon, it vanished from the people’s line of sight. It disappeared, as if it had become one with the air.

The Master of Gu Poison’s expression instantly turned sour. “Sir, you seem to share some sort of relationship with the Murong Clan. Could it be that you think of me as insignificant?”
