He had actually managed to kill a sect master.

Happy was both stunned and speechless, but he did not feel too much pressure. After all, if he wanted to enter Fox Cave, he definitely had to attack a sect. Since the sect before him had stretched its neck under his blade on its own, he could only force himself to accept its offer.

His gaze turned cold, and he decided to let loose. He activated Wind Spirit Spin and rushed into the crowd.

Then, a bizarre scene shocked all the onlookers!

Right before their eyes, Happy charged into the crowd like dust, and with his palms alone, he formed multiple shadows of palms in the air that were densely packed together. Before the enemies in front of him could get close, they would already be sent flying by the afterimages trailing behind the shadows of the palms.

Even the powerful players did not manage to face Happy head on. When they were about to attack, they found themselves shaking badly because of the tremors caused by the wind stirred up by the fists crashing into them.

“What’s going on?”

The players nearby discovered to their shock that even if they activated their body fortification techniques, they still could not get rid of the effects brought by the wind stirred up by the fists. The wind would blow against them so strongly that they would lose their balance and stagger backwards. They would cough up blood in great discomfort, unable to maintain their balance.

They were shocked, but Happy did not give them much time to understand what was going on. Under the protection of Golden Bell Cocoon, he used the powerful damage of Stormy Shadowless Kick and Wind Spirit Spin to force back and kill dozens of people within a short time.

He completely destroyed the defense line, and once he reopened the gap, countless players instantly surged in. The flames of battle spread to both sides of the gap!

“Charge!”

“Fox Cave is about to open! Hurry up and get in!”

Countless players rushed into the depths of the forest from the gap that the sect had failed to guard.

*****

The huge, grayish-white stone gained a faint sheen under the illumination of moonlight. It was the sign that Fox Cave was about to open. Hundreds of powerful players from different sects had gathered around it. Their emotions surged, but they remained calm.

The different groups could be clearly identified because all of them stood with their own camps. They surrounded the stone to witness the process of the entrance to Fox Cave opening up.

At that moment, the noise of bloody murder, weapons clashing together, and clamorous steps reached them. It swiftly came closer, and eventually, it destroyed the last shred of peace at the entrance of Fox Cave!

However, the hundreds of players around Fox Cave did not show many changes in their expressions. Some of them cast a faint glance at the people who had surged into the area through the gap like a swarm of bees, and scornful looks appeared on their faces.

“As expected of small sects. They’re all people who can’t bring anything to the table. Working with them has been a mistake.”

“Even so, we have to think about how we want to deal with the problems now.”

“We’ll push them back,” someone suggested, completely unbothered by the idea of making the matter blow up exponentially. His words made many people feel their fighting spirits burn; they were all itching to fight!

“Everyone!”

A few people who seemed to have a lot of prestige gathered together near the entrance.

One of them was rather young and had a gentle face. “In truth, we have been in the wrong at the start of this matter. If we take action forcefully now, we’ll appear as tyrants. Fox Cave is about to be activated soon. If we engage in a chaotic battle now, it will not be beneficial to any of us, what do you think?” he said with a frown.

The person who spoke was a vice sect master of Chivalry Sect. He was also the spokesperson for Chivalry Sect.

One of the people by the side instantly became unhappy when he heard it. He was the leader of Perpetual Joy Sect. He snorted and said, “Red Dust, it’s only natural for you to say that because your sect wants to build its image, but we can’t have them break the rules we set! Or else, if word about this spreads out, they will say that we can’t even enforce our rules and maintain order despite having so many sects on our side.

“How are we going to face other people in the future? That’s why I’m saying that we should carry on with what we agreed upon, hmph!” When he said his last sentence, the killing intent in his words was incredibly clear.

At that moment, the sect master of Fallen Feathers Sect suddenly let out a light gasp and attracted the two people’s attention.

The two of them looked in the direction of Fallen Feathers Sect’s sect master and noticed that there were two zombies with black death aura surrounding them. They charged forward with a ferocious momentum in the middle of the crowd that was surging into the forest.

Behind them was Happy, who had a faint gold aura around him and a majestic gait.

The eyes of sect master of Fallen Feathers Sect narrowed at that moment.

“Why is he here?!” The growl from the sect master of Fallen Feathers Sect captured the duo’s attention.

“What is it? Brother Luoyu, do you know him?”

“He’s Happy, a person on the Famous Person Rank. He’s a powerful player who shook the entire world of martial artists ten days ago. How can I not know him?”

When Situ Luoyu said it, he looked into the people’s shocked and stunned gazes, and smiled. Then, he sighed in an incredibly solemn manner.

“We’ve blamed our friends from Thousand Dragons Sect unjustly. Since the person who came was him, it indeed would have been difficult for the people from Thousand Dragons Sect to win.”

There were some people from different sects in the area who fell silent, some who came to a realization, and some who were scornful.

“Oh? Is he that good?”

The leader of Perpetual Joy Sect was one of those who was scornful. Ever since he mastered a high-tier martial art and had his lightness skill as well as body fortification skill pushed to a very high level, he never ran into anyone who could be his opponent. Naturally, he would not regard Happy, who had become famous because of a stroke of luck, as anyone of importance.

But even though he said those words, when he saw Happy easily send countless people flying, ignore the might of hundreds of powerful players with high-tier martial arts, and walk over to them at a relaxed pace while appearing calm and composed, the derision in his eyes faded away. It was replaced by solemnity.

“Wind Spirit Spin?”

As one of those who had cleared the Wind Spirit Spin quest in the game, the leader of Perpetual Joy Sect knew that there were only a few people who were in possession of Wind Spirit Spin and could bring out its effects as of right then. There was no need to doubt the strength of anyone who could do it.

The moment Happy appeared, he displayed extraordinary strength and showed that he possessed a high-tier body fortification technique. This strength did indeed give him the right to be able to walk through the crowd as if the place was his own backyard!

“He’s Happy?”

Red Dust’s eyes lit up. He sized up the person coming over to them a few times, and his eyes sparkled with an excited glimmer.

Luoyu instantly noticed what he wanted to do while standing by his side. He frowned and said softly, “Brother Red Dust, while he’s strong, he’s very ambitious and arrogant! I’m afraid that his personality will not quite comply with your sect’s aims.”

In truth, he was really worried that Chivalry Sect would become affiliated with the mysterious and powerful fighter. If that happened, Chivalry Sect, which already had many top-tier fighters, would become even stronger. Then, some of his actions, which his people had planned to specifically target Chivalry Sect, might not be carried out smoothly.

When Red Dust heard the other’s words, he only smiled and did not answer.

At that moment, something changed on the huge white stone. The entrance to Fox Cave gradually appeared among a cacophony of disorderly and noisy laughter from fox monsters. It caused the chaotic situation in the forest to instantly become peaceful.

Little North took the time to turn his head around to cast a glance over the area.

The strength of the sects was indeed extraordinary.

It had only been a short while since they charged in, and the gap they formed had already been blocked by the people from the other two sects by the side. Only less than two hundred players who did not belong to any sects had managed to squeeze through.

“What should we do now?”

When they saw the hundreds of players from the various sects near the entrance of Fox Cave eyeing them with hostility, a faint of look of nervousness finally appeared on the faces of Little North, Thunderous Battle, and All-powerful Medicinal Stone.

But Happy did not have their worries!

The two sects by their side had not done anything to stop them from entering because they had personally witnessed the destruction of the people from Thousand Dragons Sect. Hence, they only took action after they entered the depths of the forest. This was proof that they had already become wary of Happy and his party’s actions.

If they had no grudges between them, no would would casually go up and provoke a murderous person.

Happy swept his gaze over the powerful fighters near the entrance of Fox Cave before he moved again. He did not say anything and just walked toward the gradually forming entrance of Fox Cave through where the crowd had automatically parted for him.

All-powerful Medicinal Stone, Little North, and Thunderous Battle followed closely behind.

The other players who did not belong to any sects did not dare to take even half a step forward. They remained at the back and watched with wide eyes as the party of four walked among the hundreds of high-tier martial arts who had extraordinary presences.

Their expressions changed slightly.

Under the suppressive might of Gold Bell Cocoon’s forceful presence, no one attempted to stop them!

The expressions of the three spokespeople at the entrance of Fox Cave changed.

Could Happy and his party want to be the first to enter Fox Cave?!
