Boom!
While the loud explosion rang out, the wall crumbled, and an astonishing wave of wind mixed with countless shattered stones hit the Beggar’s Sect disciples and Silver Saber Constables. Aside from Elder Lin and the Golden Saber Constable, everyone else suffered internal injuries because of the shock from the palm strike, and they looked incredibly pathetic.
When the mysterious person in handwoven clothes seized the chance to flee into the distance, the expressions of Golden Saber Constable and Elder Lin turned incredibly sour. Chen Youliang even looked as if his eyes were about to spit fire. He glared at his subordinates, not having expected that even with so many people, a powerful martial artist would be able to quietly enter Phoenix Sun Branch with no one noticing him.
With a dark expression, he said, “Hurry up and leave. We might not be able to stay in Phoenix Sun Branch anymore. If we do, unforeseen circumstances will occur. It’d be best if you left in haste, Elder Lin. Brother Golden, please take me under your wing for the time being.”
The Golden Saber Constable nodded slowly. “That can be easily arranged. You helped me in the past, Brother Chen, and I’ll treat this as me returning a favor. I will give you a new identity in Six Doors.”
“Alright!”
Chen Youliang, the Golden Saber Constable, and his people hastily left Phoenix Sun Branch.
Elder Lin switched to light gear and went to the road. He swept his gaze over the ruins of Phoenix Sun Branch, which had bee incredibly disorderly and lively once again, and he put on a Bamboo Hat. Then, just like a normal martial artist, he joined the crowd on the street.
He moved through the stream of people who went back and forth with their own activities and soon vanished without a trace.
When Elder Lin reappeared, he was in a remote forest outside Phoenix Sun, where not a single person could be found!
Elder Lin suddenly stopped there and spoke loudly at the area void of people. “e out, friend. You’ve been following me for a long time, and my precious baby here has not forgotten your scent.”
Right when he finished speaking, a young man who also wore a Bamboo Hat and was dressed in handwoven cloth came out from behind a tree somewhere ahead of Elder Lin.
“Heh. As expected of the supreme treasure among poisonous creatures. Golden Thread Snake King is truly matchless when it es to scent and poison.”
“I didn’t expect that you would have such an understanding toward poisonous creatures, sir.” Elder Lin was slightly surprised. “Since you know how great Golden Thread Snake King is, you should know that once it is out, it will not return to its cage unless it feeds. I have to say, you are quite courageous for daring to show up.”
“I’ve been set up once for a reason I do not understand. If I did not e back and get the truth, my reputation might be pletely ruined in your hands, you scum.”
Happy removed his Bamboo Hat and revealed a clean and handsome face.
Elder Lin’s expression changed.
“Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero, Happy!” He sucked in a deep breath and asked quickly, “Didn’t you receive Chen Youliang’s messenger pigeon and leave Phoenix Sun City?”
“So it is indeed Chen Youliang’s doing.” Happy calmly brought out the letter that was written in Huang Rong’s name and smiled. “It’s a pity, but he forgot one thing. When he writes letters, he should not write them himself. Besides, I’ve e into contact with Huang Rong before, and this letter is written with an imperative tone… It has plenty of flaws, so how was I supposed to not get suspicious of it?”
He stopped talking for a moment, and when Elder Lin’s expression grew serious, he said, “But I didn’t expect that Chen Youliang would contact the people from the evil cult and attack Wudang Sect as well as Ming Cult. He even tried to set me up. What a vicious plan to kill three birds with one stone.”
“But a pity that you fled in the end.” Elder Lin’s tone was dark.
“Indeed. Not only did you lose the Three Monsters of Phoenix Sun, I even saw through your scheme. Tell me the truth, where did you send Great Hero Song and his people? If you tell me, I’ll spare you.”
“Haha!”
Elder Lin sounded as if he had heard the greatest joke on earth. He suddenly pointed at Happy in a conceited manner and laughed loudly.
“Spare me? Boy, don’t think that you can disregard the entire evil cult just because you won against the Three Monsters of Phoenix Sun. My position in the evil cult might not be high, but I believe that I am still stronger than the Three Monsters of Phoenix Sun.
“Today, I’d like to see whether you’ll be the one sparing me, or whether I’ll be the one turning you into food for my Golden Thread Snake King!”
The moment he finished speaking, he brought out a small bamboo tube from his Universe Bag.
Happy took note of Elder Lin’s movements, and his pupils shrank slightly from caution and graveness.
Golden Thread Snake King was the king of snakes which had matchless poison among all creatures in the forest. Since it was small and ate other venomous snakes for food, its venom was so strong that it would feast on a living person the moment it saw blood! Its strength could pare to that of a normal Inaction Realm martial artist!
In truth, if a player could capture a Golden Thread Snake King and train it, they could jump to the ranks of the top-class players in one go. In Happy’s previous life, quite a number of players who practiced poison arts had set Golden Thread Snake King as their final goal.
At that time, there was one Golden Thread Snake King that was sold at the price of ten million RMB. It was a snake that was sold at an insane price, but the truth was that obtaining a king of snakes could allow a person’s strength to increase by leaps and bounds. Their power would multiply several times.
Hence, even though Elder Lin said conceited words, he was not entirely at fault for it.
He had no way to know that the person in front of him actually had a way to handle Golden Thread Snake King.
Elder Lin opened the bamboo lid, and a golden thread shot out from it like a flash of lightning. It left behind a golden afterimage in its wake as it short straight before Happy’s eyes.
Its tiny body revealed a pair of fangs that were filled with killing intent, and it did so in an exaggerated fashion.
Hiss!
The foul stench practically suffocated Happy.
The Golden Thread Snake King’s fangs pierced Happy’s skin without any resistance.
However, before Elder Lin could show joy on his face, he realized that Happy’s body had turned into an afterimage. The real him was nowhere to be seen.
But what shocked Elder Lin the most was not that Golden Thread Snake King missed, but that Happy had counterattacked and seized it with a reverse grip.
“You’re asking for death!”
Elder Lin was delighted upon seeing that. He laughed coldly, but he soon realized that Golden Thread Snake King did not manage to immediately slip from Happy’s hands.
When Happy seized the snake, Golden Thread Snake King had flown into madness and wanted to open its mouth to deliver a fatal bite, but it did not expect that a foul stench of realgar would envelope its body. It shuddered, became limp, and curled into a ball.
“Heh.”
It was only then that Elder Lin realized what was going on. Before Happy showed up, he had covered his gloves with realgar powder and captured Golden Thread Snake King, which he immediately stuffed into a bamboo tube he had prepared beforehand.
No matter how Elder Lin urged his pet to attack fiercely, Golden Thread Snake King did not respond!
“Bastard!” Elder Lin was so angry that he shook.
Golden Thread Snake King was his priced killing move and treasure. He had developed it for years, and not only did he hold feelings for it, it was also the weapon he took pride in. Yet Happy had taken it from him without a word, and Elder Lin felt as if he had a piece of himself taken away. His heart clenched in pain.
“Give me back my Golden Thread Snake King!”
With an angry roar, Elder Lin lost his rationale. He rushed at Happy while flinging all caution to the wind and used all the other poisonous creatures on his body while striking at Happy with fierce palm attacks.
Happy did not panic.
He swept outward with one palm, and with Nine Yang Divine Skill protecting him, he easily blew away the foul stench and the poisonous creatures ing at him. Then, with Dragon Capture, he parried Elder Lin’s attack and pushed his fingers together to jab repeatedly at the man’s chest.
