Chapter 496: Silver Mask Duke
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Undying King of Abyss Punch, break it!”
Practically all the players on the streets nearby could hear Barren Murderer’s roars.
But Happy was right. Barren Murderer’s Undying King of Abyss Punch emphasized defense, not offense. Compared to the fierce and tough Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, it was basically the same as him using his disadvantage to go up against his opponent’s advantage.
The black, fist-generated wind from Barren Murderer was swallowed instantly along with the man himself by the large black dragon. The sounds were also torn into countless pieces by the violent dragon roars.
Rumble!
Wherever the large black dragon went, it looked like the houses were swept up by a Level 12 tornado. They were destroyed till there was only rubble left.
At the moment the dragon completely disappeared, Barren Murderer shot out like a cannonball into the wall of a house. He went right through it and crashed into the crowd on the street. His body was covered in numerous cuts, and he was drenched in blood. He looked like a broken and bloody man made of metal!
But what shocked the people was that there was a huge, bloody hole at the spot where Barren Murderer’s heart was, and blood gushed out from it. However, despite such grave injuries, Barren Murderer’s chest still heaved. He did not die on the spot. The fortune brought by Undying King of Abyss Art was indeed great.
“Vice Hall Master Barren!”
“Quick! Protect the vice hall master and leave!”
Barren Murderer had a transcendent status in Class One Hall. When the people from Class One Hall saw that he had been defeated with just one blow from Happy, they forced down the astonishment in their hearts and rushed to Barren Murderer from everywhere. One of them picked up Barren Murderer on his back and tried to disappear into the crowd.
However, since things had progressed to this stage, there was no way Happy would let Barren Murderer live.
Even though he did not know how many sacred medicines Class One Hall had, those items were so rare that they could only be acquired with great luck. If one of them was used, it would be gone. Hence, today, Barren Murderer had to die.
When Happy prepared to attack, that Class One Hall member who carried Barren Murderer while he fled suddenly felt a hot palm-generated wind push against his chest.
Thud!
The person might have activated his body fortification, but he was still sent flying back along with Barren Murderer. They fell in an incredibly pathetic manner.
While they were flying, many other players noticed it, and they felt their eyelids twitch.
‘What the heck, another great player appeared!’
When the group found the person who had attacked from the crowd, they could not help but cry out in surprise.
“It’s him!”
“Silver Mask Duke!”
Thud... thud...
As countless players felt their emotions surge and held their breaths, a cold-looking man with a big but evenly built body and a silver mask that covered half of his face calmly walk toward Barren Murderer.
Silver Wolf walked out from the crowd and said to Happy, who was on the roof, “Let me handle this person. Take Sect Leader Zhou and leave Beijing quickly. Don’t linger in the area.”
At the moment Silver Wolf appeared, Happy knew that Barren Murderer would not leave alive, no matter what. He felt at ease, and he turned his head around toward A’da and A’er.
“Sect Leader Zhou, let me handle them! Leave first!”
“ROAR!”
A’da and A’er had already witnessed the might of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm. When they saw the huge dragon head pounce at them, the sword force they delivered was negated in the air, and another palm strike came at them with an even more astonishing momentum.
Palm techniques were faster than sword techniques, and this characteristic was displayed to its fullest by Happy.
Zhou Zhiruo was barely hanging on. When she saw Happy blocking two people by himself, she did not force herself to continue fighting. She withdrew from the battle and headed to the city gate.
*****
The weakened Barren Murderer was on the streets. A hint of fierceness and uneasiness was in his eyes.
‘I didn’t expect that Silver Mask Duke would appear as well. Does that mean that Demonic Zither Duchess is also here? This is bad!’
Unfortunately, since he was badly injured, it was impossible for him to cry out a warning. His brothers from Class One Hall around him charged toward Silver Mask Duke simultaneously.
Silver Wolf was surrounded, but he remained calm and composed.
At the moment the group’s attacks were about to touch him...
Boom!
An astonishing heat rose into the air.
The people who were surrounded felt as if they had rammed into a ball of fire, and strangely, their attacks were weakened slightly at the moment they delivered them. They lost a great amount of their qi!
Even though they hit, not only did they not have the feeling that they had heavily injured their enemy, they felt as if their attacks had landed on themselves. They felt blood going up their throats, and a pressure settled on their chests, but that was not all. Their body fortifications also instantly became much dimmer.
Before they knew what had happened, reddish-white flames shot up from Silver Wolf’s palms.
Whoosh!
The people felt their bodies burn, and they were sent flying by a great force.
“My qi...”
“He broke my body fortification with one palm?! How is that possible?!”
“Damn it, my qi realm fell to Mystical Realm!”
The group of Class One Hall members who faced Silver Wolf head-on quickly realized that their qi had become chaotic once they landed. The qi in their limbs immediately disappeared because of the force of the palm strike, and they had to extract qi from the Dantian region again.
However, their body fortifications had been torn, and their qi realm fell by a level.
Silver Wolf seized the chance and charged toward them.
The gusts of palm-generated wind were accompanied by Wind Spirit Spin, and they sent a few Class One Hall members who stood in front of Barren Murderer flying.
There were a lot of people from Class One Hall around.
When Silver Wolf sent one batch flying, more people surged forward like a tidal wave!
Barren Murderer lay on the ground while looking around in panic.
He looked at the crowd, the roofs, the restaurants, wherever his eyes could see.
In the end, Barren Murderer heard a note from a zither.
Twang!
It rose into the air like springwater.
When the note entered his ears, Barren Murderer looked like he had been struck by lightning, and he shuddered violently! He redirected his gaze and locked his eyes on a girl in white, who sat cross-legged on the ground in the crowd with a zither over her knees and her hands on the strings.
She was very calm and composed. There was also a hint of slyness on her, since she sat in a spot no one would notice. She stared at the situation with Silver Wolf while she plucked the strings like she was making a mess of them.
There were no pleasant notes, only chaotic sounds filled with murderous intent.
When the sounds entered everyone’s ears, the people in the area all felt sick in the heart and oppressed.
Twang, twang...
Wind Chimes plucked the strings even faster.
Invisible but sharp sound blades quickly took shape in the air!
Shick! Shick! Shick!
Dense waves of sound blades tore through the air.
The people who surrounded Silver Wolf did not expect that a God of Death whose shadow they could not even see was behind them, and she had already cut at their throats.
The people who had drawn close to Silver Wolf had their body fortifications weakened to the point that they were like thin sheets of paper under Red Flame Palm’s attacks. The sound blades crushed them with one strike, and blood marks instantly blossomed on their bodies.
One... two... four... eight...
The sounds of the zither became clearer, and the tempo became faster and wilder. It sounded as if there were thousands of horses running in a battlefield, and they were accompanied with the rising and falling of screams in pain. The people from Class One Hall fell on the ground in groups, and wherever the killing notes went, blood flowed in rivers.
At that moment, there was no longer anyone who did not notice Wind Chimes!
She and her zither became the center of attention.
Wind Chimes paid full attention to plucking her strings. She was incredibly fast, and illusions formed on her white robes. The number of wind blades also increased exponentially!
It was as if countless blades had cut into the group from Class One Hall members. Hundreds of great players were thrown off their feet and fell down!
The players nearby sucked in sharp breaths and moved back to protect themselves.
