Chapter 921 - Reemerge in World of Martial Arts

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On a blood drenched city wall was One Emperor, who walked forward with heavy footsteps until he reached a man with his hands placed behind his back. The latter had a head full of smooth, long, white hair, and under the setting sun, it was like silver light that was dyed in the colors of twilight. A powerful wave of pride and evil came crashing into Happy’s senses immediately.

Evil Emperor, the leader of Wild Wolves.

He was currently the strongest in the game, and he practiced Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art.

While Happy was in One Emperor’s body, he sized up Evil Emperor carefully.

If he made calculations based on how the players progressed according to normal time, this person was the real elite, and he was matchless.

He did indeed have an extraordinary presence.

Even though he released no qi whatsoever, he gave off the feeling that he had completely fused with the world.

When One Emperor stood in front of him, it was as if he was facing the heavens, the earth, and himself.

This feeling was omnipresent, and Happy believed that One Emperor could sense it. In fact, what he sensed might not even lose to what Happy could experience.

“One Emperor, we finally meet.” Evil Emperor’s voice traveled into his ears, and it was as if he just broke the peace in the world with his voice.

“Indeed. I’ve heard of Wild Wolves’ fame for a long time, and when I meet you today, you do indeed live up to your name.”

There was an underlying meaning to One Emperor’s words.

“Same to you.” Evil Emperor turned his head around.

That was an incredibly young and normal looking face belonging to the average joe, but his eyes were incredibly bright and lively. The light shining through them caused people to ignore his face. In fact, they will gain the misconception that they will forget how he looked like in the next second, and they will be unable to help themselves from observing his face even more carefully.

‘Sky Demon Book and Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art… what a manual, and what a skill!’ Right when this thought rose in Happy’s heart, One Emperor spoke at the same time.

“Evil Emperor, your martial art is indeed strange. Even my heart swayed. If it were not for the fact that I’ve understood the eleventh slash, my mental state might have already been broken, and I will be unable to bring out the power of my sword will. I will have lost without even fighting against you.”

“That’s why you’re worthy of me personally fighting against you.” Evil Emperor smiled slightly.

When he smiled, the light from the setting sun behind him suddenly seemed to have become alive, it turned into burning fire clouds, and they enveloped One Emperor without any sign.

Clang!

A black sword force instantly cut away all illusions. Clear sword whines roared nonstop in the air, and One Emperor was finally able to figure out where Evil Emperor was.

“Go!” The black sword force instantly locked down on its target.

However, Evil Emperor just stood where he was without moving. He stared at One Emperor with a smile before he raised his hand and tapped against the air.

An astonishing restrictive power suddenly appeared around Happy.

Happy swiftly sensed that One Emperor seemed to be bound by an amazing power.

Even though this happened suddenly, but elites always reacted to all matters with keen senses, and Happy instantly judged that this power should be something similar to aura.

If Happy were in One Emperor’s position and was suddenly in danger, he had three choices.

His best choice was to use Shifting Stars and tear down all the damage on him before transferring it to his enemy or shifting it to the ground or other dimensions. He can counterattack straightaway.

The second best choice was to defend his heart, activate Arhat Body and Dragon Coil. He can choose not to defend instead of attacking to handle all possible changes in his enemy’s attack, and during the critical moment, use True Nine Words Seals to break his enemy’s attack.

His worst choice was to use Spiral Force and Dragon Saber to fight head on against Evil Emperor.

But One Emperor’s reaction was a little against Happy’s expectations.

At the moment he was bound, a black sword light that pierced through the heaven and earth appeared in front of Evil Emperor.

The lockdown of space around him instantly crumbled.

‘What a great sword technique!’

One Emperor’s slash had already reached the state where he can extricate himself from his own body and also free himself from his enemy’s control. The power he executed was extraordinary.

One Emperor broke free.

When he saw One Emperor’s move, Happy quickly came to a conclusion based on the power that this slash should be a move that was after the ninth slash among the Fatal Thirteen Swords.

But unfortunately, even though One Emperor’s sword technique could shock heaven and earth, those with powerful mental fortitudes will be able to instantly find a chance of survival through it, which was the case for Evil Emperor. Evil Emperor had already moved two feet away from it before it could touch him.

Boom!

A stone was cut in half, and the cut surface was as clean as the surface of a mirror. It fell to the ground outside the city wall from the pilaster where Evil Emperor stood.

“There are currently only three people in World of Martial Arts who can break free from my Dao Heart Traps the Demon so quickly. One Emperor, you’re the strongest among them. I’ll give you another chance. Submit to me and become one with Wild Wolves. I’ll give you thirty percent of the share of profit we get from the Chinese server!”

Evil Emperor had a smile on his face as he spoke faintly, but it showed his ambition and confidence that he will absolutely be able to get the Chinese server.

“The Chinese server is not where you should be.”

“This is my home.”

“Your home is on the battlefield, not here.”

Finally, a faint hint of impatience appeared on Evil Emperor’s face. “Ha. Then it’s a pity. I originally thought that since we stand at the top of the world together, you would know how to appreciate favors when it is shown to you. Since you refuse to listen, there is no need for me to continue wasting my breath with you. I will sooner or later devour all of the Chinese server, and anyone who opposes me will die wailing in pain under the kiss of the Wild Wolves.”

“That’s not necessarily true.”

One Emperor lifted the longsword in his hands.

Their duel finally began.

*****

When Happy emerged from the game, there was a very prominent, solemn expression on his face.

It had been one year and a half since he last saw One Emperor, and One Emperor’s sword technique had already improved to this extent. He managed to understand the eleventh sword from the Fatal Thirteen Swords, and the final sword slash could be said to a blessing from heaven and earth itself. It nearly destroyed Evil Emperor’s power in fusing with the world through Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art. If it were not for the fact that Evil Emperor used that evil gaze and launched an ambush against One Emperor, the fight might not have ended so quickly.

Yet even so, One Emperor still lost.

But he lost fair and square.

Sky Demon Slip was one of the four great manuals, and the martial art recorded in it was a peerless martial art for those in the evil cult. It was the ultimate technique the legendary Evil Master Pang Ban and people like Han Bai relied on to reach their status as elites.

Only the word unfathomable can be used to describe Evil Emperor’s skills. Even Happy currently had no strength to fight against him.

Evil Emperor had nearly five years playing the game, and Happy had only played the game for three years. However, based on the battle replay, Happy came to understand that One Emperor absolutely did not enter seclusion and quit the game.

Others might think that One Emperor went into hiding because he cannot accept the fact that he lost and decided to vanish without a trace. However, only Happy knew that One Emperor will absolutely not admit defeat before he completely understood the two final slashes for Fatal Thirteen Swords.

He should be pouring all his mind and soul into understanding the final two slashes.

And Evil Emperor knew that One Emperor was the greatest threat in the Chinese server, which was why he repeatedly tried to convince One Emperor to submit to him.

Once he was certain that One Emperor was fine, Happy released a sigh of relief.

He redirected his gaze and left the video log page and entered the page where his information for his character was recorded.

Options aside from creating a new character appeared on the game interface for the second gen helmet.

There was a familiar figure floating in the air there.

There were two words above its head—Happy.

His gaze was fixed on him, and the scenes around him quickly changed.

He saw Happy the character acting clumsily when he first entered the game. Then, he entered Shaolin Temple and began learning martial arts meticulously. Later on, he gained a small degree of fame when he cleared out a mountain fort alone. Finally, he charged through all difficulties at Mount Hua during the Sword Among Us Tournament with a sharp and aggressive aura.

The young child martial artist quickly grew, and he grew closer to becoming a real wandering hero.

When he stood on the stage, his tall and straight figure moved nimbly, causing his enemy to attack in a flurry, and during then, his gaze was sharp.

His passion and memories spread out quickly in his chest and brain.

However, the scene reached the area outside Guanlin Temple.

The elites from Five Venoms locked down the entire area and killed him repeatedly.

In his anger and indignation, he charged out multiple times.

He fell to his knees and had his blood gush into the air again and again.

His vision was filled with red.

The character in the air also seemed to be becoming alive little by little. He became Happy, who was filled with confidence and indignation. His gaze gradually became lively and fierce, and he stared at Happy calmly and with a hint of madness.

Both stared at each other, and they seem to be able to hear each other’s thoughts.

A voice roared madly in his chest, and it was about to escape from his throat.

“Will you create a new character?” The system reminded him.

“No.” Happy’s voice was cold and determined, and he resolutely jumped to his in game character levitating in the air.

At the moment he jumped into that character, a heroic feeling that he never felt before surged forth from within Happy’s body. He seemed to be able to hear the dense wave of horse hooves thundering against the ground, along with the sound of war drums.

He felt as if he can hear the chaotic and excited clashes of weapons against each other, as well as cries for murder, and he thought he saw a world for martial artists that caused his mind to shudder in excitement and fill him with boldness as well as determination.

The system’s voice rose once again.

“Ding!

“Player Happy has chosen to return to World of Martial Arts. Since the last time you logged in was one year, six months, and seven days ago, and you also deleted your character, the system will prepare a background for you.

“After you were injured, a mysterious person helped you return to Shaolin Temple, and you used a total one year and six months to recover from your injuries.”

The system chattered on about his background, and it finally asked the question that caused Happy’s emotions to surge and his heart to race. “Happy, will you immediately enter World of Martial Arts?”

Happy said nothing. After repeatedly calming down the surging blood in his body, he sucked in a deep breath before he opened his eyes and answered, “Yes!”

Right when he finished speaking, a dull thud rose. Then, a large, old, and heavy door slowly opened behind Happy.

Piercing light quickly blended together with Happy.
