Chapter 721: Chapter 721 – Seize the Saber, Failed
Chapter 721: Seize the Saber, Failed
“Brat, your end is nigh!” An angry shout came from behind Happy . “Put down Heaven Crystal now, and I’ll let you die with dignity! Otherwise, when I capture you, I’ll definitely cut you into pieces and you’ll without a proper grave!”
The Dharma protector with the silver saber chased after Happy in exasperation and cursed a few times . He was like a cold wind that caused the temperature around him to fall even further .
Happy did not care about that . The extremely cold area was not small, and it was like a maze as well . After he led the Dharma protector around the tunnel for a while, he could clearly sense that the Dharma protector’s breathing had become slightly chaotic .
The circulation of his true qi had also become increasingly slower . His entire body was red, as if he was burning, and there were bits of paleness in that red as well . His speed as he chased after Happy gradually slowed down too .
Those were the signs of someone being invaded by cold poison after they were in a cold environment for an extended period of time!
Even though the Dharma protector had trained an incredible resistance to heat after staying in a hot environment for a long period of time, his old bones were no longer as strong as when he was at the prime of his life, and it was difficult for him to stay for a long period of time in an extremely cold environment .
In the past, Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng had stayed at the summit of a mountain visited by snow for three days and three nights, where they had a hard time withstanding the cold . In the end, both died when all their vital energy ran out .
The temperature in the cold cave was even worse than the cold at the summit, which was considered to be a normal temperature found everywhere during winter!
But Happy did not want the old man to leave too soon .
Whenever he was about to leave the cave, he would deliberately provoke him .
“Hmph! What an old, hypocritical man . Didn’t you mighty northern clansmen say that you don’t care about Heaven Crystal? Yet you’re chasing after me like a dog! When I leave this place, I’ll definitely reveal this horrible side of the northern clan to the world and make sure that you have no place to stay!”

“Damn you, you brat… Today, I’ll definitely crush your bones into dust to get rid of this hate in my heart!”
Since the mighty northern clansmen were short-tempered and he was mocked and threatened by someone several decades younger than him, there was no way he could be bothered by anything else, and there was only one thought left in his heart .
‘Kill him!
‘I must catch up to that brat and kill him in this cold cave!’
After a few minutes, the Dharma protector could feel the depletion of qi in his body speed up . The circulation of his true qi had become much slower, and his hands as well as feet became increasingly colder, but Happy was not in a much better condition . He found himself having a hard time moving about, and he was about to be caught if the Dharma protector just persisted for a little while longer .
‘It’s time…’
Happy observed the Dharma protector’s condition for a while, and once he felt that he was not pretending, he estimated the time and felt that the timing was about right . If he did not attack now, the Dharma protector with the golden saber might not be able to stay idle and come over to check the situation .
Once the Dharma protector with the golden saber came over and the two men worked together, he would have no hope of winning anymore!
Happy took a turn and suddenly pushed his slowly circulating Nine Yang Divine Skill to the peak . Then, he turned around without hesitation and drew his Seventh Sword quietly out of its sheath to thrust forward like lightning . In an instant, he executed dozens of sword glares into the empty spot in the corner!
The Dharma protector with the silver saber was about thirty feet behind Happy . He slowed down gradually, but in the tunnel with multiple corners, he could travel thirty or so feet in the blink of an eye .
He was about to catch up to Happy, but there was no way he would relax . He continuously exerted force in his legs .
When he took a turn, he noticed the cold chill that came at his face, and even when he wanted to stop, his body froze for a moment .
He held his silver saber horizontally to use his previous method to block the sword glare .
But the Dharma protector underestimated Happy’s cunning!
Happy would not just use his full strength to fight against a Myth Realm martial artist .

All the attacks he executed earlier were to anger the Dharma protector so that he could make him stay in the extremely cold cave and fight against him . Even though the damage of his attacks was fierce, Happy still held back a little .
Right now, he decided to truly attack, so there was no way he would not attack at full force!
Universe’s Lightning Destruction Style!
He executed thirteen consecutive thrusts, and clanging sounds could be heard nonstop . Most of them were concentrated on one spot .
One thrust! Two thrusts! Four thrusts! Eight thrusts! Thirteen thrusts!
In an instant, the blade of the silver saber suffered the damage from thirteen thrusts that dealt thirty thousand damage each .
The Dharma protector’s expression instantly turned incredibly sour .
When he took the eighth thrust, the shock was so great that all his strength disappeared . He was relying on his true qi to take the attacks, but his body automatically reacted to them, and he retreated to reduce the damage from the sword glares on his silver saber .
It was the second time he was forced to retreat by Happy .
The mighty Myth Realm martial artist had been ready to vent all the rage in his body, so he did not expect that he would meet with the same result the second time and that it would be even worse than before .
When he had to receive the thirteenth sword glare, it was nothing, but his arm was nearly numb, and he suddenly noticed a finger-generated wind shoot out of the shattered frost and accurately jab into his fingers around the silver saber .
He felt as if his entire body had been struck by lightning, and his weapon fell from his hands .
A powerful suction force came from across him .
At the moment his silver saber left his grasp, it flew away with a whoosh .
The expression of the Dharma protector instantly changed drastically .
“Don’t even think about it!”
Without his weapon, he would not be able to execute his prided Great Saber Breaker Art, so it was naturally not something he’d let happen . At the moment the silver saber left his grasp, he threw his body back . His feet clamp down on the flying silver saber, and he took a three hundred and sixty degree turn while airborne . A silver saber glare instantly filled the cave .
It was as expected of a Myth Realm martial artist!
Even though he had been deceived many times, during the critical moment, he still managed to counterattack swiftly .
Happy failed to grab the saber with Dragon Capture . His expression sank, and he activated Petite Dragon unhesitatingly to avoid the saber glare that came slicing at his face . Sword lights were connected to each other, and they went after the Dharma protector into the empty cave outside the narrow tunnel .
The Dharma protector had noticed Happy’s aggressive sword offense . His expression was grave, and he did not dare to be negligent and careless . He tapped against the icy ground with his fingers and spun around a few times on the ground . Saber glares shot out repeatedly to destroy the sword glares that came from Happy, and he retreated calmly .
‘This Dharma protector with the silver saber… What a man . ’
Happy did not dare to use Shifting Stars readily . The attacks from a Myth Realm martial artist were too strong and fast, so he did not believe that he could shift all of them back
As for the Three Dragons Sword Qi he copied from the Sword Sect Master, while its damage was amazing and Happy could use seventy percent of its power because his qi realm had increased, his qi realm would be compromised soon after he used it, which was why he did not dare use it at the start .
As expected, the Dharma protector was really hard to deal with!
Happy gritted his teeth .
‘I’ll have to give it my all!’
Sword glares endlessly flew everywhere to keep their initiative .
After all, the Dharma protector with the silver saber had not completely got himself out of the disadvantage .
Whoosh!
The saber glares from the Dharma protector might have been very fierce and aggressive, but Happy was faster . When the Dharma protector swung once, Happy had already avoided the attack and left behind three terrifying but dazzling sword gashes on the cold, icy, silver surface of the blade while he chased the Dharma protector at lightning speed .
When the Dharma protector finally noticed that he could not use simple methods to fight against Happy, there were a few bloody gashes on his thighs and shoulders .
Happy’s gaze gradually turned even more level-headed and calm .

Nova Allandis, formerly known as Suna Lee, remembers her previous life and realizes her current life is as the villainess in a fantasy novel she once read. However, as Suna, she was the laziest person with no motivation, possibly attributed to the fact that she didn't go into a major that was her strongest suit. Now that she has a high affinity towards magic and wishes to go into it, will she be able to change her lazy self for the better, or will she go back to being lazy like the villainess in the novel? Can she become a Great Sage and live life happily this time? Note: This is not a "revenge of the villainess" novel, but rather a "rise to fame" novel. A/N: This is just an experimental novel and criticisms are much appreciated, but I'm extremely defensive of my own work and characters. If you are here to put down a novel, please remember, first of all, you are not paying anything to read this, and second of all, authors are humans too.
