Chapter 1095: Evil King’s Acknowledgement

As Happy stood up once again in the mountainside, he sank into an indescribable silence once more.

Evil King’s gaze on Happy had become much more solemn and puzzled. He also looked wary.

Wan Wan’s gaze was even stranger.

At that moment, she was finally able to tell that while Evil King’s attack was so suffocating that it was difficult to breath, it did not create much of a threat to Happy. Happy did not even seem to have the intention to use his sword to parry the attack. He just withstood that palm strike and was completely fine.

Wan Wan said nothing, but she felt incredibly disheartened.

Her achievements among the younger generation were already pretty good. Even Shi Feixuan, the successor of Kind Boathouse, had just reached the middle stage of Myth Realm.

But a normal secular disciple from Shaolin Temple had actually managed to fight to a standstill against the strongest of the evil cult while he was just at Moksha Realm.

This sense of dejectedness and distance between them caused her to find it difficult for her to find a balance in her emotions.

But when she saw Happy’s indifferent and calm presence and demeanor, for some reason, Wan Wan quickly calmed down and regained her composure.

Even when he faced Evil King, he could still remain humble, patient, and was neither superlicious nor obsequious. Perhaps this was the reason behind why he could quickly rise to fame in the world of martial artists. If a normal person ran into Evil King and was caught in this kind of situation, they might have already been so terrified that they lost their wits or would be so excited that they even forgot their own names.

As Wan Wan thought about this, Happy and Evil King exchanged blows once more.

This time, Evil King suffered another setback.

Wan Wan widened her eyes and watched Evil King’s astonishing blow land on an empty spot. Then, he was kicked far away, and he was nearly unable to hold back the surprised shout in his mouth.

It was another quiet kick, and the speed was so fast that it was astonishing.

…No, this time, it was even faster!

At the moment Evil King was kicked, Happy seized the air, and he curled his fingers to form the shape of a claw.

Dragon Capture!

Wan Wan immediately recognized that this was one of Happy’s trump cards. It had an amazing ability to control objects, and if Evil King was drawn back, he might be hit again, and he would be in an even more dire situation.

But no matter what, Evil King was already One with the World. When Happy executed Dragon Capture, he did not manage to draw Evil King back, even though he was an easy target at that time. It was as if he had just seized air, and he returned empty handed.

Happy was stunned, but he did not appear too astonished and surprised.

One of them was in Moksha Realm, and the other was One with the World.

No matter what, they were three qi realms apart.

It was already difficult enough for him to use Dragon Capture against someone who was at Myth Realm, and the effects during that time were also minimal. Hence, it was only normal that he could not bring out the usual effects of Dragon Capture at all when he used it against someone who was One with the World.

Happy just found the situation a little regrettable.

If Dragon Capture could reduce Evil King’s speed even in the slightest, he would have been able to deliver the full effects of Full Winds in Long Skies within the shortest amount of time on Evil King.

Unfortunately, he had not been able to chain his attacks, and he could not deliver greater damage on Evil King.

But this time, he still made Evil King become even more wary of him, and the next time they exchanged blows, he was even more cautious and wary. He had even fully activated his body fortification.

Thud! Thud!

The sound of Happy and Evil King fighting rose and fell in the mountainside.

The two seemed to have descended into a strange war of attrition.

Evil King was in charge of attacking, but every time he attacked, Happy would either perform the fiercest and most extreme counterattacks to send him flying, or he would not even be bothered to parry and would just be sent flying like an unkillable cockroach.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Wan Wan felt incredibly resigned when she saw that the mountainside had become full of potholes as the two continued fighting.

They seemed to have an endless amount of strength. Even after they had been fighting for a long time, one was filled with true origin, and the other still had his qi surround the entire field. As he breathed, he used the spiritual energy in the world to recover his strength.

With one whoosh, Evil King moved dozens of feet away, and he widened the distance between himself and Happy while he stared into Happy’s eyes. He said, “Let’s stop. We’ve been fighting for a long time, and you should be able to tell by now that no matter how long we fight, nothing will come out of it.”

When he said this, he stopped for a while before he cast a glance at Wan Wan, and he continued, “Once I’ve become One with the World, I can control the flow of the primordial qi in the world around me. The recovery speed for my qi cultivation technique has become much faster as I breathe, and no matter how much you try, it’s impossible for you to be a threat to me. But I have to admit, the recovery speed and defense for Tendon Changing Classic is also incredibly strong. Besides, every time you force me back, the time I take to recover gives you a chance for you to recover your strength. Before I am completely familiar with the strength of someone who has become One with the World, I cannot break your defense.”

Wan Wan instantly fell silent.

Evil King’s words meant that he was treating Happy at the same level as he was!

One of them was a young hero at Moksha Realm, and the other was the strongest person in the evil cult who had become One with the World!

When he heard Evil King’s words, Happy felt incredibly gloomy, but he did not say anything.

In truth, he did not expect that things would turn out this way.

He originally thought that with his strength, even if he fought for a day and night, it would still be enough for him to get a stone plate from Evil King.

But he did not expect that Evil King would reach a breakthrough at such a critical moment and became One with the World. The difference in qi realms was too great, and he no longer had that many ultimate techniques to make up to that difference and help him surpass Evil King.

Dragon Swings Its Tail could threaten Evil King, but he could not use it continuously.

He might have been able to discover some of the amazing uses in Dragon Coil, but it was not useful against an enemy whose qi realm was too high. It was just as ineffective as Dragon Capture.

Evil King was right.

Even if they continued fighting, it was meaningless. They would not be able to determine the victor between them within a short amount of time.

“I’ll be back.”

Happy stared into Evil King’s eyes, and after keeping quiet for some time, he said those words coldly before he turned around, intending to leave Yin Weed Faction’s nest.

He moved his feet a little, and Evil King suddenly said, “I’ll say the same thing. As long as you’re willing to, you can bring the head of a grandmaster from a righteous sect over. At that time, I will give you a stone plate.”

Happy said nothing, but he stopped moving for a while. Then, he turned his head around to cast Evil King a glance. “There’s no need for that. We don’t belong on the same path.”

“That’s not necessarily true.”

He looked at the direction Happy left, and Evil King chuckled softly. “Young man, don’t be so certain of your words. Just remember this. I’ve already said what I said, and I will keep to my word. You can change your mind at any time you want.”

Happy said nothing. When Happy left the mountainside, he received the system notification in time.

“Ding!

“Your strength has been acknowledged by Evil King!

“Evil King admires your strength and personality! If you kill any grandmaster of a righteous sect and bring the head to Evil King, you will get one of the ancient divine monk’s stone plates, and it will have an ultimate technique recorded on it.”

Happy was shocked.

He did not accept the quest, but the system had actually automatically made him take the quest? Could this be a quest that was specifically targeted for him?

Once he arrived at a spot that was not too far away from the mountainside, Happy quickly summoned the quest log to read through the details.

Just as he expected, he saw some remarks of the quest at the end.

There was no time limit for the quest, and there was only one description for it—You are a person personally acknowledged by Evil King, a powerful martial artist who is the first among all Myth Realm martial artists currently in the game to become One with the World.

When Happy saw this, he could not help but quirk his eyebrows.

Just as he expected, this was a quest that was targeted specifically at him.

Even though Happy did not know why such a strange and unique quest appeared for him and why there was no time limit for it, he had become much more at ease at it because of it.

Since Evil King had personally agreed that he would reserve a stone plate for him, the other players might not have the chance to trigger this plot-related quest. It was also impossible for them to get any quests related to the stone plate.

Even if Happy did not accept or carry out this quest, it was impossible for anyone to take his place and get this quest.

Coincidentally, Happy was currently the most worried about Evil King triggering and getting this stone plate. By the looks of it now, he could be at ease.

*****

After he left Yin Weed Faction’s nest, Happy found that he was unable to calm down even after a long time had passed.

This time, his plan to come to Yin Weed Faction’s nest in search of the stone plate had completely failed. But that was not all. He had even stimulated Evil King so much that he became One with the World. It might be a long time before he could win against him.

As his plan failed and he did not get the stone plate, Happy’s goal of quickly searching for a chance to kill Evil Emperor again after he showed up to completely crush Wild Wolves’ plan to control the Chinese server was destroyed.

‘Thank goodness Full Winds in Long Skies has reached the third realm after I kept using it repeatedly over the past few days. Compared to the time before Evil Emperor was locked up, I’ve gained an understanding of the profound secret in Dragon Swings Its Tail and Dragon Coil, and my strength has increased by quite a lot. I have one last day, and it’s impossible for me to push my qi up to 1,280 points.’

As of current, Happy’s qi points were at 1,229.

While Happy ran to Lovely Land’s headquarters, he tried hard to think of a way for him to be able to have his strength increase effectively in just one day.

‘Body fortifications and lightness skills will only show results after I train them for a long time.

‘Even if I go to Ghost’s Domain and continue to use Demonic Venomous Larvae to train his lightness skill, it was still very difficult for him to be able to effectively push himself to Inaction Realm within a short amount of time.

The only thing he had not trained right now was a long-distance martial art in Moksha Realm, such as a Moksha Realm hidden weapon technique or a bow technique. Those were incredibly important for him to cover up the flaws in his strength.

Unfortunately, he still had the same old problem—time!

When he thought about how Evil Emperor was about to be released from prison soon and also remembered how Wandering Know-it-all clearly reminded him that his Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art had improved, Happy could not help but worry about Lovely Land.

Even though Lovely Land was developing quite well now and the members in Lovely Land increased to nearly five hundred thousand people ever since the revenge fund was in operation, which led to Class One Hall falling silent, if Wild Wolves and Class One Hall worked together to counter them, Lovely Land would still be in a very dangerous situation.

‘I’ll have to think of a way.’

While Happy ran, he racked his brains to think of a way to break through this wall.

Suddenly, Happy could not help but remember the words Evil King said, along with the only quest he had been forced to accept.

“No.”

When he thought of this, Happy quickly got rid of the thought that had just appeared in his head.

Even though he was very certain that he could already kill quite a number of grandmasters from righteous sects and easily obtain the stone plate, when he thought of the situation he had to face after that, he could not help but feel troubled.

If he killed the abbot of Shaolin Temple, the highest-graded bounty quest might be added to the series of clan quests issued by Shaolin Temple, and they would not stop hunting him until he died.

After some time, Happy thought of the quest once more in his head.

‘Perhaps I can choose to go to those sects where I will never run into even if I die…’

Half an hour passed by.

At Wandering Know-it-all’s mansion, Wind Chimes pretended to massage her master’s shoulders to peek at the letter in his hands.

“Master, did Big Brother Happy send you a letter? What did he say in there?”

Even since Happy led a group of people to bring her out of the ruins of Wind Assault Tower and even built the astonishing Lovely Land within a short moment, there was never a day where she did not wish that Lovely Land would charge into Beijing so that she could end these grievous days of living in a total lack of justice.

Wandering Know-it-all did not notice Wind Chimes’ expression, he frowned and held the letter in his hands while he mumbled, “So, he’s preparing to do a plot-related quest…? But even I can’t figure out the location of Heaven Crystal Sword…”
