Chapter 981: Going to the Door and Causing Trouble
Sky Demon Branch was one of Class One Hall’s richest branches, because Sky Demon Secret Cave produced Fire Qilin Blood and Fire Qilin Scale, which was a rare, consumable demon vessel. Sky Demon Branch had not only always maintained a position where they were only second to the headquarters, it was also rather famous in the Chinese server.
However, they would naturally place even more strength and powerful players to protect such astonishing wealth!
Class One Hall had stationed more than ten thousand people at Sky Demon Branch, and there were always more than five thousand people online to guard the place.
Those five thousand people could be considered as first-rate or second-rate elites in the game. Each of them had extraordinary skills, and any of the small parties from the branch could easily challenge Sky Demon Secret Branch, and they could even clear the entire Sky Demon Secret Cave.
Aside from that, the four great elites of Sky Demon Branch would organize a Qilin Operation each week, and their goal was naturally the Fire Qilin itself.
They thought of ways to obtain more blood and scales from the Fire Qilin.
Even though they rarely succeeded, those four elites were core Class One Hall members. Each other had full sets of fourth-echelon demon vessels or divine weapons, and they could compete against the current top-class elites in the game.
With four top-class elites and thousands of Class One Hall elites in the branch, very few people could get close to Sky Demon Secret Cave, even Sky Demon Branch.
Over the course of time, this place started showing signs of being Class One Hall’s sole territory, and this alone was enough to show just how great Class One Hall’s skills and strength were.
On this day, the members from Sky Demon Branch spread out in the ruins of Sky Demon Sect to train, just as usual. Aside from some of those wasteful ones in the branch who decided to use the branch prison to train, only the normal members who were in charge of guard duty were left in the branch. There were only one hundred people in it, because if there was no major operation or any important tasks, the people from Sky Demon Branch would usually not readily return to the branch. Instead, they would form parties to train.
“Darn it, I’m in charge of guard duty again. Today is a weekend, you know. Those four titans will have an operation this afternoon. This stinks, I can’t join them again.”
“Enough with it. You will only get guard duty once a month, and it will only last for half a day. There’s nothing for you to complain about. If you really don’t want it, then offer something for the branch storage.”
“Go away! If I do that, it’ll just benefit jerks like you!”
“Gosh, you really let your mouth run a lot, huh?”
“Do you want to come down and spar with me with your sword?”
“We’ll spar, then! I’m not scared of you. I heard that you’ve been practicing a quicksword technique lately, and coincidentally, I’ve been practicing Yue Clan’s Spear. Let’s see who’s stronger!”
Once they exchanged words with each other, those Sky Demon Branch members just got down to the martial arts training ground.
Their weapons flashed.
More than ten Sky Demon Branch members surrounded the martial arts training ground, which was surrounded by wooden stakes, to spar. They exchanged blows with each other, and they could be considered to be searching for ways to spend time.
Soon, the sound of thundering horse hooves suddenly drew close rapidly.
The Class One Hall members who were sparring did not pay attention to the sound at all. They were still immersed in their intense sparring session. After all, there were still quite a lot of people in Sky Demon Branch. Hence, it was incredibly normal for one, two, or an entire group to return.
However, the horse’s momentum did not reduce even when it reached the perimeter of Sky Demon Branch.
“Who the heck is that?”
The group of people finally paid attention to the situation and stopped attacking.
When they turned to the direction of the sound, they saw one person and a horse jumping over the hitching posts.
“Don’t you know the rules in Sky Demon Branch?!”
“You aren’t allowed to ride on horses when you’re in the area of the hitching posts! Which branch did you come from?!”
The leading Class One Hall members shouted at the top of his voice.
With Class One Hall’s position in the Chinese server, it had been a long time since anyone dared to cause trouble to them. The group of people just thought that someone from another branch had decided to come over to show off his talent on the horse in front of the others.
However, as a few clear sounds of air being pushed away rose, Class One Hall’s flag fell like a kite with its string snapped. The plate for Sky Demon Branch also shattered to dozens of pieces because of throwing knives filled with hidden force. Right under the Class One Hall members’ shocked and enraged gazes, they fell to the ground with a bang.
Black messenger pigeons descended on the Class One Hall members’ shoulders.
This was an alarm telling them that their branch was attacked.
“Just who are you?!”
While the Class One Hall members were shocked and enraged, their judgment was pretty good. They could tell with just one glance that the person’s skill in throwing throwing knives continuously was great. It was not something that a normal person could do, and they only shouted at him at their spots instead of rushing over immediately.
Thud! Thud!
The person who rode over turned around, and his bone-chilling gaze landed on their faces like knives. There was a mocking tone in his voice. “Rules? Class One Hall’s rules?
“Today, I’ve come here to set rules for you!”
Once he said those murderous words with grim determination, it would be strange if those Class One Hall members continued to remain still without moving.
Their expressions changed. “So, you came to cause trouble! Brothers, attack! Take down that conceited bastard!”
The group simultaneously lifted their weapons and charged out from within Sky Demon Branch.
Happy did not even bother blinking. He just watched those Class One Hall members flanking him while he remained on his horse.
“Hmph. I have ten minutes, anyway, so I’ll play with you.” He pushed himself off of his horse and jumped high into the air.
“Attack!”
The Class One Hall members seemed to have been waiting for this moment. Half of them raised their hands and brought out their hidden weapons.
But Happy did not even bother activating Petite Dragon. He traveled thirty-two feet with one step and headed straight to the Class One Hall members who rushed out of Sky Demon Branch. He did not think about turning back even once.
Clang clang clang clang!
Those hidden weapons landed on Happy like hail.
Unfortunately, while the damage from Life and Death Realm hidden weapons was pretty good, it was far from enough to break the defense in a full-set of fourth-echelon demon vessels as well as the defense provided to him by an eighth realm Indestructible Body.
When the Class One Hall members who came out of the branch to fight against Happy saw this, their hearts let out loud thumps.
‘What great defense! An elite has arrived!’
Right when this thought flashed in their minds, the ruthless figure brought with him bone-chilling killing intent when he pounced on them, and his sword glare was like flames.
The leading Class One Hall elite did not even know how Happy avoided his slash. His consciousness had already faded away before he could figure out what happened.
The last thing he saw in his memories were a pair of cold eyes filled with endless killing intent.
The murdered person did not manage to see what happened, but the people beside him could tell clearly.
They clearly saw that at the moment their companion delivered his slash, their enemy closed in on him with the saber glare from their companion practically sticking to his skin. Then, he flung his longsword up and pierced through their companion’s throat as easily as cutting air.
‘One dead!’
After killing his first person, Happy pulled his sword out without stopping for even a moment.
A black wave of flames cut out in a terrifying manner. The sword glare that gushed out instantly enveloped all Class One Hall members.
This was Happy’s strength. Before he even put on the posture to draw his sword, he had already quickly launched an even faster round of attacks. His movements were so clean and simple that the people from Class One Hall could not react to the situation at all.
But he had already attacked, so they could only brace themselves and activate their body fortifications to withstand the attack.
But a pity for them, because Happy’s attacks were not easy to receive at all.
Bang! Bang!
Wherever the sword glares went, the group of people would look as if they were struck by lightning. Quite a number of people coughed up blood on the spot. Their bodies went limp, and they were practically unable to hold their weapons with a steady grip.
Ever since he practiced Tendon Changing Classic, Happy was even more adept in releasing hidden force. This time, he released two hidden forces in one go. One of them traveled in the air, and the other in the ground. One was exposed, and the other hidden. He would find it strange if these normal Class One Hall elites could block both.
However, this exchange of blows allowed them to know just who their enemies were.
“It’s Happy!”
“Darn it!”
“Hurry up and send a messenger pigeon to tell the branch master to come back and provide reinforcements!”
A person’s reputation was important, because it could affect someone else’s actions.
While surprised shouts rose, the Class One Hall members all turned stark pale. They ran away from Happy, and a few of them even withdrew from the battlefield in a flurry to release messenger pigeons.
When those messenger pigeons flew, more than ten people were stabbed to death by Happy.
No matter what, his Great Demonic World Destruction Art had already reached the middle stage of the tenth realm, and he was only one step away from reaching completion for it. If he attached hidden force to his attacks, even top-class elites might not be able to withstand his attacks.
“Since you have already sent your message, die.”
Happy intentionally dragged out the fight a little before he caught up to the Class One Hall members who went away to release messenger pigeons.
*****
A group of Class One Hall elites were inside the ruins of Sky Demon Sect, and they had already killed most of the Sky Demon Sect Disciples in the hall. At that moment, they were prepared to use Sky Demon Orders to open Sky Demon Secret Cave, but they jumped in fright when black messenger pigeons descended on their shoulders.
“What’s going on?”
“The branch is attacked?”
The group looked at each other at a loss.
“Whose idea of a joke is it to attack us at this moment?”
Sky Demon Branch’s master, Sealed in Heart scowled and looked at his branch members, who were standing at the foot of the stairs.
“Who’s in charge of guard duty today? Go and ask what’s going on!”
In the current Chinese server, it had been about two years since anyone dared to attack Class One Hall’s branch. Hence, when they saw black messenger pigeons descending on their shoulders, the group’s first thought was not to provide reinforcements, but to instinctively think that someone decided to pull a prank on them.
Right when they finished speaking, the group at the foot of the stairs quickly released multiple messenger pigeons.
In less than half a minute, multiple messenger pigeons landed at the same time in the hands of Sealed in Heart and a few other vice branch masters in the party.
At the moment, the messenger pigeons arrived, Sealed in Heart’s heart let out a vicious thump.
If this were a reply from the members who were on guard duty, they would definitely send their replies to the members who had written the letters just now to ask what was going on. They would not write letters to send news to the four titans of the branch.
The group at the foot of the stairs had their expressions change.
“Branch master, could it be that the people from Wind Assault Tower have decided to cause trouble to us again?”
In the entire Chinese server right now, only Wind Assault Tower was still bothered by the fact that Class One Hall monopolized Sky Demon Secret Cave, and they would come and cause trouble to them every once in a while.
However, such an event would not happen as well. This was clearly a direct attack on the branch. It was the same as a declaration of war.
“It’s not Wind Assault Tower…”
Sealed in Heart skimmed through the contents of the letter before he looked up once again. His eyes shone with a burning glare.
“It’s Happy.”
“Huh?!”
The group was surprised.
“Happy?”
“Why did he come to Sky Demon Branch?!”
At the same time, the other three vice branch masters read the warning letter with grave expressions. Once they were done, they looked at Sealed in Heart.
“That brat sure has guts. He has actually come straight to Sky Demon Branch to challenge us. Does he really think that our branch is that easy to bully?”
“Hmph!”
“That’s right. Our branch is not a place where he can come and go as he pleases alone. Does he think that he can ignore every other hero in the world just because he’s a little famous and a little skilled?”
“Let’s go!”
“We’re cancelling the operation this time. Everyone, make haste back to Sky Demon Branch. I’d like to see just what Happy intends to do!”
