Sword Among Us

Panda Novel

Bang!

Bang!

A loud sound rose from two different directions at the same time.

One of them was because Momo had turned around and used Wind Body to exchange blows with Elder Xing. She lost in the exchange and was sent crashing through the roof because of the shock. The first loud sound was from when she shot through the wall, while the other one was from the second palace to the left.

The unexpected sound and the pathetic figure who shot through the wall caused Elder Xing’s expression to change. He came to a swift halt, for he could tell that the person who shot through the wall in a pathetic fashion was the fourth elder, who had been in isolated training.

“You have someone else with you…”

Elder Xing finally understood why the group kept fighting until then and refused to leave even when they had no hope in winning. It seemed like they actually had someone powerful who had invaded Sky Demon Secret Cave together with them.

A solemn but angry expression slowly showed up on his face.

Elder Xing stared at the hole on the wall in the distance, and he was soon able to see a figure slowly walk out of it in a relaxed and calm fashion. However, what left him surprised and shocked was that the person who defeated the fourth elder was actually had an exceptionally young face.

However, when he saw the dragon-shaped vortex surrounding the young man’s arm along with the vague four-clawed golden dragon behind him, he swiftly narrowed his eyes and murmured, “Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.”

The incredibly pathetic fourth elder quickly used his momentum to flee once he shot through the wall, and he did not stop for even a moment. There was blood trickling out of the corner of his mouth, and he appeared to be in a terrible condition.

When he looked up, he saw that Elder Xing had actually appeared outside the palace, and his face instantly filled with delight. He shouted, “Elder Xing, help me! This brat killed Fifth!”

Elder Xing said nothing, but he shuddered.

He reflexively cast his gaze to the palace where the fifth elder dwelled, and just as the fourth elder said, the door to the palace was opened, but no one movement there, and there was no sound coming from within.

His eyes darkened.

The last bit of scorn in his heart disappeared.

Whoosh!

When Phantasmal Shadow charged out of the palace, she was just in time to hear the fourth elder’s words.

She was originally a little uneasy when there had been no word of Happy killing an elder even after so much time had passed. She thought that they might be unable to retreat with everyone in their party alive, but when she heard that one of them was already dead, she sighed in relief.

Within such a short time, one of the Inaction Realm elders had died and another was injured.

Was that the strength of the top-ranked player on Famous People Rank and the strongest in the game?

A hint of admiration appeared in the eyes of Phantasmal Shadow, Wu Kuo, and the others in their group when they looked over.

Happy did not stop attacking just because of Elder Xing and the fourth elder’s conversation.

He swept his gaze past Momo and the others before he looked toward Elder Xing, who came charging over once he jumped down from the roof. Without another word, he chased after the fourth elder!

Thud! Thud!

His Golden Boots fit into the ground perfectly when he stomped at the ground. Right when his sleeves fell to his side, a powerful whirlwind blew at the area, and a strange presence rose in the air.

Happy sucked in a breath and stared at the fourth elder’s back. With a somber expression, he quickly formed a circle with his hands…

The air around him surged, and it was brought by an invisible force to gather at the hole Happy created with his arms.

Straight left!

Right hook!

This scene, along with the dangerous presence that filled the air, seemed to have made Elder Xing remember something buried deep in his mind. He sucked in a deep breath, and he could not help but stop moving for a while. His gaze was solemn.

When a golden light with an extraordinary presence appeared on Happy’s arms, he performed the other two motions: Uppercut! Hammer fist!

“ROAR!”

Elder Xing’s eyes went wide, but it was too late!

A loud dragon’s roar shook the area, and it was deafening to the ears!

A large eight-clawed golden dragon shot out with a furious roar from Happy’s hand. It chased after the fourth elder as he fled in panic. The large dragon head descended on him, and the fourth elder only had time to scream in fear before he was devoured.

Arrogant Dragon’s Regrets!

It was the fiercest and strongest attack with the mightiest damage in the world. The fourth elder’s head was pushed down, as if a heavy weight had descended on him. He screamed in pain, bled from all seven orifices, and flew away like a kite whose string was snapped.

“How preposterous!” Elder Xing shouted in anger.

When he reacted to the situation and caught the fourth elder, not only was the fourth elder bleeding from all seven orifices, many of his bones had also been crushed. He was as limp as a torn ragdoll and foaming nonstop. There was indignation in his bulged out eyes, but soon, he breathed his last.

In the blink of an eye, two of the six elders of Sky Demon Secret Cave had died!

Elder Xing sensed an unprecedented chill crawl down his spine when he realized that.

A youngster with a low qi realm had killed two elders without alerting the elders from the other three palaces and halls in Sky Demon Secret Cave.

If he had not noticed the abnormality on the roof when he was in isolated training and quietly made the roof collapse, perhaps the other five elders in Sky Demon Secret Cave would have died in the young man’s hands too.

“Just who are you?!”

Happy said nothing, but gave Momo a signal through his eyes, telling her to take Phantasmal Shadow and the others away. Once that was done, he finally spoke to Elder Xing who was almost unable to contain his anger and was about to attack.

“You evil cult elders really love asking those of us in the younger generation this question…” He stopped talking for a while, and his tone changed. “But unfortunately for you lot, those who ask that question all die without exception.”

“Among the younger generation, you’re the first person who dares use that sort of tone to talk to me.”

Happy laughed heartily. “You praise me too much! But that’s only because you have been hiding in Sky Demon Secret Cave for more than thirty years, or else… trust me, you would have experienced more things.”

Elder Xing’s expression changed, and he snorted coldly. “You have a sharp tongue, huh?!”

When he finished speaking, he gave up on the fourth elder’s corpse and left behind an afterimage on the spot to appear beside Happy.

“Careful!” Phantasmal Shadow subconsciously warned. “Happy, he’s not any ordinary evil cult elder! His movement speed is even faster than mine!”

Right when she finished speaking, she saw an unbelievable scene.

Happy turned around without any sign and made a grabbing motion. Elder Xing, who had an extraordinary momentum, was dragged out from the air with a single strike from Happy.

He shuddered, but while he was very surprised that Happy could figure out his movements, his combat experience was very rich. He easily broke free of Happy’s hand. Then, he swept at Happy’s chest with one hand with a momentum as fast as lightning.

Whoosh!

Happy also adapted to the situation incredibly quickly.

The moment Elder Xing changed his attack, Happy used Petite Dragon. He ingeniously moved away from Elder Xing’s swing at his chest. Then, he countered without showing any signs of weakness!

“ROAR!”

He swept at Elder Xing’s back with a palm.

That palm strike had the damage of an Inaction Realm martial artist, so even Elder Xing could not guarantee that he would remain uninjured if he got hit. His eyes lit up, and an astonishing qi force exploded from his back to negate that palm-generated wind at the perfect moment.

The advantage and chance Happy had gained from executing three ultimate techniques in succession was easily negated by Elder Xing. Phantasmal Shadow, Momo, and the others held their breaths when they saw that. They could not help but feel incredibly disappointed.

But Happy did not share their feelings.

After all, the final boss of Sky Demon Secret Cave was not that easy to deal with!
