Chapter 939: 939
Happy’s one hour physiotherapy in the morning was soon over!
Happy held his cane and took one laborious circle around the hospital’s garden . He returned to his room while drenched in sweat, and he was suddenly faced with an awkward situation . He was covered in sweat, and naturally, he cannot lie on the bed straightaway .
One and a half years ago, Happy and Xu Yao had already stated clearly that things between them were over .
To Xu Yao, while it was hard for her to wipe Happy’s body while he was unconscious, those days were still not as awkward as it was now .
And Happy also did not react to it, which was something rare of him .
After all, he had lived at the other side for one and a half years, and he kept a distance from Xu Yao, which was why it was rare of him not to react when he suddenly faced the problem of bathing, because his heart had shuddered, and he felt uneasy, as if there were ants crawling all over his skin .
Both people avoided each other’s gazes in the silent room .
“Patient—Oh, you’re still standing here?
“You’re drenched in sweat! Go wash up . Half an hour later, I’ll come and take your temperature . ” One nurse saw this scene when she passed by, and once she said those words, she left into the distance .
When Happy noticed Xu Yao stretching her arm over to unbutton his shirt, he did not know whether to be thankful to the nurse or hate her . His mind was just blank at that moment .
He did not even know how he went into the bathroom with Xu Yao .
However, skinship brought them no peace . It was as if there was static in their touches .
There was no bathtub in the hospital .
Happy did not want to have Xu Yao wipe his body like some useless person lying on the bed either .
While they were in the bathroom, Xu Yao had her head lowered while she bit down on her lip, because she did not have the courage to look into Happy’s eyes . Her movements were not as smooth and effective as usual, and sometimes, she will take a long time before she can even unbutton one button .
After taking a long time to remove Happy’s clothes, she did a lot of mistakes while bathing Happy and ended up with a lot of water on her, causing Happy to feel his heart clench when he looked at her .
“Girl, how many times did you get sick over the year?”
Xu Yao was rendered speechless . Her movements stopped for a moment, as if a memory in her mind had been brought up . Tears instantly filled her eyes, but she forced herself to not look up .
Happy had been attracted by Xu Yao’s determined and bright personality in the past, and he naturally knew just how stubborn she was, which also meant that she did not like revealing her own weaknesses in front of others, and he cannot help but reach out to hold Xu Yao’s face .
Xu Yao’s eyes instantly turned red, and at that moment, she cannot hold her tears back anymore .
She endured a lot of things over the past one and a half years .
She had to take care of Happy during lonely nights, and whether Happy needed him or not, she will stay by his side . When she was sick, she could only stay beside Happy, who was unconscious, and she went through hundreds of days like this .
When she heard Happy’s loving words, the tender side in Xu Yao’s heart was affected .

“…I’m sorry . ” He held Xu Yao’s tear-stained face, and he looked as if he managed to understand the endless weakness and grievance behind the girl’s tears . His heart clenched in pain, and he quietly held Xu Yao in his arms . “I’m sorry . ”
The water from the shower drenched her body, and that water mixed with her tears, which she can no longer hold back . She began weeping in Happy’s bosom .
Happy held Xu Yao and leaned against the wall with great difficulty while in the bathroom . Then, he began gently adjusting the temperature of the shower .
Both stayed close to each other under the warm water .
Happy’s heart ached for Xu Yao, and there was tenderness in him for her as well, but those emotions were barely noticeable in his eyes .
Xu Yao finally got rid of her gentle and fragile appearance . With her tears and the warm embrace around her, she vented the grievance, loneliness, and suffering she had to endure over the past one and a half years .
No one in the large hospital knew about the heartbreaking but similar heartwarming scene in the small room .
Even though Xu Yao remained as reticent as ever, when she walked out of the bathroom, she seemed to have got out of some sort of trauma, and she became much more high-spirited than before .
When Happy got back on his bed, he was a little exhausted, but when he saw that Xu Yao’s eyes, which were more energetic and lively, he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart .
He stared at Xu Yao’s back as she went about her business with a dumb look on his face .
As if she noticed that someone’s gaze was following her movements, Xu Yao turned her head around and asked, “Aren’t you going to train?”
It was only then that Happy noticed he had logged off for a long time . He took his breakfast, went through physiotherapy, took a stroll around the garden, took a long time to shower, and let his mind wander . It was now past noon .
To him, who was fighting for time, he was indeed wasting his time by the way he spent it .
However, for the first time, Happy was not in a hurry . He said, “I’ve slept too deeply over the past one and a half years, and I’ve never managed to take a good look at you . Now, I want to observe you a little longer so that I can make up to all that I’ve lost . ”
“Kaixin… We’ve already broken up . ”
“Then why didn’t you leave me on the street at that time but brought me back and even let me eat, drink, sleep, and do whatever I had to do to stay alive for one and a half years on your bed?”
“I know that I’m not your boyfriend anymore . ”
Happy’s words caused Xu Yao’s eyelashes to flutter .
“But you need to know that you’re still my girlfriend . ”
Happy said seriously, “Yao, you’ve gone through a lot over the past one and a half years . I know that you intend to leave once I get better, but I have to tell you this, I want you to stay by my side for the rest of our lives . Don’t leave, when I get better, you have to support me when we go and pay our respects to our mom . We should have gone and visited her one and a half years ago, and I owe her an explanation as well as a promise, don’t you think?”
“…You’ve changed,” Xu Yao stared at Happy while she mumbled .

Happy smiled . “But there are certain things that will never change . ”
When he finished speaking, he picked up his VR Helmet by the side .
Beijing was currently not only Class One Hall’s world, it was also where Wind Assault Tower’s headquarters was located .
Between these two top-class sections, Wind Assault Tower was much better .
These two empresses were very strict when they set up the limitations in their sects, and the order in Beijing was great . It was completely different from the time when Class One Hall dominated over the north .
People came to and fro Beijing, and the place was incredibly lively .
But Happy’s mind was not in enjoying the hustle and bustle of activity . He moved through the street quickly, and soon, he arrived at the market, which was filled with the most activity in the area .
He had quite a number of equipment in his hands he wanted to sell . At the same time, he needed to get some information . All sorts of people were in this place, which helped him in hiding his identity, and it aided him in shaking away those people following him .
Four elites who took on normal appearances ran into each other in an alley, and they were instantly dumbfounded .
In just the blink of an eye, their target, Happy, which they had kept a close eye on, disappeared .
“That brat sure is smart . All four of us tried to track him down and even took shifts to take action, and he still managed to give us the slip?”
“What should we do now? Should we continue tracking him down?”
Right when someone gave this suggestion, their companion rejected their idea .
“What’s the point of locating his location? There are plenty of people in the market, and there are plenty of people who are wearing Bamboo Hats . Right now, even if we figure out his location ten minutes ago, it’s absolutely useless!”
“That brat was in coma for more than one and a half years, why hasn’t his senses dulled? He seems to have become even smarter?”
“Oh well, let’s get out of this area and guard the four entrances to the market . ”
The four people retreated . Then, at a place not far away from them, a player who had their backs turned to them grabbed the hem of his Bamboo Hat, and a cold glare shone in his eyes .
‘That’s Dream Clouds’ personality . She’d rather nip trouble at the bud and not allow it to grow on its own . If she doesn’t have full confidence in something, she will not act . This is an aspect where she’s smarter than Blood Robes . ”
In truth, Happy already noticed these spies following him in the crowd when he was on the path to leave Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts . He had been waiting for them to take action, but they only followed him all the way back to Beijing and never attacked . Such cautious monitoring can only be arranged by Class One Hall’s Dream Clouds . No one else can manage to do it .
‘Class One Hall…’ Happy naturally remembered that incident at the foot of Mount Song .
Five Venoms managed to develop very quickly in this world, and they were already a rather famous and large sect . However, Happy did not even have the strength to get rid of a normal, large organization right now .
‘We’ll meet again very soon . ’ Happy looked away very faintly and asked the diviner in front of him .
“Help me check where Madam Wang of Mantuo Villa is . ”
“Ten thousand taels of silver . ”
Happy threw the diviner the money pouch he prepared beforehand .
“Madam Wang is the mistress of Mantuo Villa, and she is, of course, at Mantuo Villa . ” The diviner’s answer was something Happy expected .
“I need you to investigate where Madam Wang’s daughter is . Investigate Wang Yuyan’s current location, along with her husband, Duan Yu’s current location . ” Happy threw two money pouches aside, and Happy did not even blink once .
The diviner readily placed the money bags into his sleeves, and with a face full of smiles, he manipulated his eight trigrams chart .
“They’re southwest in Dali’s Measureless Sword Sect . Both are there . ”
Happy said nothing . Once he obtained his answer, he turned around and left .
There was no need for Happy to go to Mantuo Villa at all . Even though the person in the portrait was that woman, Madam Wang’s value and relevance to the plot should be high enough that her portrait will be taken into the treasure house in Mountain Villa of Ten Thousand Beasts . Happy got rid of the possibility that he had to search for Madam Wang herself but instead fixed his target on Duan Yu and his wife, who were at Measureless Sword Sect .
He obtained quite a few decent pieces of equipment from Blood Alliance members, and he managed to sell them for eighteen million taels of silver, but Happy did not have the intention to sell Wild Silk Net and the hair stick he got from the treasure house .
One of the reasons was because he did not have a great understanding toward the quotation for trap masters . Wild Silk Net was rather rare, and Tang Xiaodie’s Hair Stick was a damage-oriented demon vessel that was quite seldom seen . He can use them to protect himself instead .
Now that he had more than twenty million taels of silver with him, Happy felt much more confident . He used eight million taels of silver to trade on Illusion Life and Death Pill from Doctor Li before he began wandering around the market with his remaining ten thousand or so taels of silver .
After all, one and a half years had passed, and there were plenty of things that caught Happy’s attention in the market now .
Aside from fourth-echelon equipment, there were also third-echelon demon vessels, fourth-echelon demon vessels, fourth-echelon divine weapons, even various Moksha Realm or Inaction Realm martial art manuals .
The medicine that increased attributes were still relatively few and far in between .
That was because the ingredients to create them can seldom be found, and it was very difficult to see them on the market . Even if someone brought it out, their price will be something that Happy will not be able to pay for now .
Happy walked one round in the market before he noticed that he had quite a lot of items that he wanted .
His strength was definitely at the top of others in the other world . He also had the best Forgemaster to serve as his support, causing him to not have high requirements for equipment . In fact, it would not be not accurate to say that he did not have any requirements for equipment .
However, in this world, the difference in his qi realm with others brought out the inadequacies of his equipment . For the first time ever, Happy had to acknowledge the fact that his equipment was not strong enough, and he had to think about ways for him to climb above the crowd .
Happy located two items that caught his attention .
One of them was a broadsword with an incredibly astonishing appearance . Its name was Recondite Steel Heavy Sword .
The other was a Moksha Realm sword technique known as Grand Demonic Sword Destruction Art . It was a technique that many people were fighting over currently, and its name also sounded incredibly domineering .

The Last Death Mage
Since time immemorial humanity has always feared and shunned what it didn’t understand. Over time this changed a bit to encompass things that didn’t conform to their thoughts and ideals. Due to humanity’s stubbornness with which the enforced their ideals many lives were lost and changed. When humanity first clashed with monsters and the beings that use magic, this trait caused many bloody fights. Over time the fights escalated into battles and full on war on several occasions. Humanity due to their adaptability and persistence won many of these altercations, causing huge casualties to the magical beings. Humanity did not come out unscathed however; many of the empires and civilizations noted in human history fell due to these battles and wars. Eventually over time humanity and the magical beings came to a sort of agreement. Magic and the beings associated with it faded into the background of history, being relegated to myth and legend. Humanity meanwhile advanced leaps and bounds once magic faded, leading to our current level of civilization. Not all magical beings were content with this, thus they did their own actions and killed or fed on humans. This has led to many organizations to be formed concerning this, on both the side of humanity and the side of magical beings. They regulate and control the use of magic as well as protect humanity from the darker things that are now not but myth to them, but there is a reason humanity instinctually fears the dark. Unfortunately there are always those that are unsatisfied by the status quo, and those that are prejudiced against things that are different. This is a story of a young man who wanted nothing more than to be normal. Unfortunately Fate and the world he lives in do not easily allow that this, thus his life changed, not for the better. Everyone has heard of or read stories about monsters and legends, heroes and villains, this is one such story. Hi, this is my second attempt at a story here, the first was before the major overhaul happened and i lost everything related to that story due to PC troubles. I hope you enjoy this if you dont please leave some constructive criticism in the comments. An Editor and the like will be needed, but I will edit as problems are pointed out and as i proof read. This story will have no set schedule, unless of course I decide to type up a bunch in succession then i will note that in a chapter beforehand. ADDED NOTE: most sexual content will be in Interludes or sub chapters with a .5 attached. Profanity and gore however shall be plenty in the actual story, though the descriptives for the gore may be added later. (For example, in the prologue that gave a hint at what happened to the MC, will be enhanced so that the gore invokes more descriptive/complete mental pictures, though it may wait.) ~Tyroth Gideon
