Chapter 1067: Evil Emperor is Set Up
“Wind Chimes!”
“Hurry up and tell the hall master! Demonic Zither Wind Chimes has logged in!”
“Brothers and sisters, get ready to attack!”
Right when Wind Chimes entered the sights of the large number of people in the street, she quickly attracted great attention from Class One Hall. They descended into an uproar, and the crowd moved, and the groups of people who had been stationed in the place quickly occupied the streets and the roofs on both sides of the street.
The people from Class One Hall used a lineup of more than one thousand people to seal off Wind Chimes and her party’s path ahead from the distance.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
Bows were drawn fully, and they contained very real and very great killing intent. The protected zone instantly turned into an area that was as dangerous as a dragon’s den, and they looked as if they would immediately attack the moment Wind Chimes entered their attack range.
But when Wind Chimes and her party entered their attack range, they did not dare to readily fire, and there was no other reason behind it.
Happy led four Myth Realm martial artists and charged straight in front of the others. These five people kept intersecting with each other, and they fought fiercely, imperceptibly providing quite the decent protection for Wind Chimes and her party. It would be a major matter if any of them accidentally attacked the four martial artists from the four great law enforcement groups.
It was already bad enough if they offended them on any other day. But this matter today happened in Beijing, and they were in the emperor’s territory. Anyone who prevented a law enforcer or attacked them would be doubly guilty!
Attacking these influential and reputable martial artists in Beijing under everyone’s eyes was the same as walking to their own deaths. While apprehending Happy was important to him, if they could not take him down even after a long time, these four martial artists might actually split up and kill off the people who provoked them.
With the protection provided by the four Myth Realm martial artists, One Emperor, Wu Kuo, and the rest of the party protected Wind Chimes and smoothly arrived near the entrance of the street.
At that moment, Happy, who had been quietly fighting against the four Myth Realm martial artists, shouted loudly, “My martial artist friends, I’m about to use this path! If you’re not from Class One Hall, please go into the nearby restaurants and shops for the time being, in case my attacks accidentally harm you! After all, weapons have no eyes! After three seconds, if you still remain on the street, then you will have to take care of yourself!”
Once he said those words, the players who were watching by the street instantly burst into a commotion.
Many people had realized since the beginning that Happy might want to break out of the encirclement through this place, and they had long since moved to the nearby roofs.
Right now, the ones remaining on the street quickly moved into the shops and restaurants. A handful of people had even activated their lightness skill to jump dozens of feet away. Then, they started watching from a distance.
Immediately, only the hostile Class One Hall’s members were left on the entire street, and it seemed as if it had become much emptier!
“Let’s go!”
After three seconds, Happy used one Full Winds in Long Skies to push the four Myth Realm martial artists away, and he rushed at the forefront as if he was flying. He moved as quickly as lightning as he faced the murderous defense line set up by Class One Hall.
He went straight to charge at the formation without saying anything else!
“Don’t fire!”
The people in the lead saw Happy rushing over murderously, and they instantly panicked. Even though someone was alert enough to shout a warning loudly, some people were still intimidated by the almost substantial murderous aura from Happy. Under the powerful pressure, they became careless, and they released their arrows.
‘Oh no!’
And there were a lot of people who made this mistake because of their nerves.
When these people released their arrows, the people around them thought that they had received their signal, and they fired at the same time.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In the beginning, there were only a few arrows, but soon, they turned into an arrow.
Even though the group’s target was Happy, since he activated Wave-like Subtle Steps along with Petite Dragon, he easily avoided being targeted. And now, most of the arrows that filled the air were directed at the four Myth Realm martial artists chasing after Happy.
“How preposterous!” A shrill, enraged shout shook the crowd.
The fair eunuch was the Second Grade Leader of Eastern Depot. He had a high status, and he was a prideful person. Right now, he was working with three great martial artists, but he could take down a nameless wandering martial artist, and his heart was already filled with anger. He could not accept this. Right now, when he saw the arrow shower that filled the air coming at them from the crowd, his rage completely exploded from him like a volcano.
“All you martial artists who habor evil intents... What do you think Beijing is? It’s the capital! How could you commit crimes in the city and offend high-ranking officials from the imperial court?! Do you even respect the imperial court and His Majesty?!”
His reply was a second wave of arrows and the Class One Hall members shouting viciously, because they decided to act recklessly after they made the mistake.
“Darn it all!”
“We’ve already committed a crime! We might as well just kill the stupid eunuch!”
When he heard the group referring to him as “stupid eunuch”, the fair eunuch flew into a rage. He grabbed the air with both hands, and his Sunflower Aura moved in reverse and charged out. The arrows that filled the air instantly moved to the side.
“Traitors to the country, all of you!”
He immediately gave up on chasing Happy momentarily and chased his goal by charging at Class One Hall.
The other three Myth Realm martial artists might not have reacted in such an extreme fashion, but they used their actions to tell the people around them how displeased they were.
When they moved past a few Class One Hall members, the endless smoke from the opium pipe lit them on fire on the spot, and the heat was so great that they screamed in pain.
Vermillion Bird pierced through a few Class One Hall members’ throats.
The only person who did not attack was the martial artist from Western Depot. It seemed like he knew that these people’s target was not him. Hence, aside from crushing the arrows that came shooting at him from the sky and flinging them away, his eyes were fixed on Happy while he ran ahead of them, and he followed him closely.
Happy was not gentle at all when he attacked.
After all, he had already killed thousands of people in the capital, and he had committed a heinous crime. If he died in battle, he would have to sit in jail for one month, and that was why Happy charged into the densest group of people since the beginning.
Class One Hall’s defense line was instantly torn by Happy.
Wherever he went, the people would be thrown off their feet.
Once the formation was destroyed, One Emperor, Wu Kuo, and the rest of the party protected Wind Chimes and easily blocked the scattered arrows coming at them from the sides.
Wind Chimes might be the chief target for protection, but she did not remain idle with her hands while she was in the party.
She held the zither with one hand, and with the other, she quickly created multiple sound blades, knocking away most of the arrows in the air.
The group quickly advanced 328 feet forward from the center of the street.
Suddenly, Happy, who had been moving ahead of the group, stopped moving.
Right now, there were only three people remaining behind him.
The fair eunuch, the hot-tempered Second Grade Leader of Eastern Depot had taken the initiative to chase after the Class One Hall members who challenged his might.
The pressure on him had already been greatly reduced when a martial artist at the later stage of Myth Realm was gone, but the reason Happy turned around was not because of this.
One Emperor led the group to stop thirty-two feet away from Happy, and he shouted loudly, “Come out, Evil Emperor!”
When he finished speaking, a mighty pressure that filled the air descended from the sky.
Wu Kuo and the rest of the party sans One Emperor were shocked, and they felt their pressure increase by leaps and bounds.
When they redirected their gazes, they saw a man with silver hair appearing silently on the roof to their left. He looked down at the group with a gaze that made him seem as if he regarded all manner of lives in the world derisively.
“I knew that I wouldn’t be able to hide your gazes and ears.” Evil Emperor had his hands placed behind his back and stared at One Emperor as if he was looking at an old friend. “You’ve improved since the last time I saw you.”
Once he finished speaking, his gaze turned to Happy, who was still fighting against the three Myth Realm martial artists.
As Evil Emperor appeared, One Emperor could not help but have a slightly anxious expression appear on his face. When he heard Evil Emperor’s words, his voice turned grave. “Choose a place, and we’ll fight.”
“I can kill you whenever I want to, but this time, my target isn’t you. If you’re sensible, hand over the girl behind you to me.”
Under the mental pressure from Evil Emperor’s Great Dao Heart Demonic Seed Art, Wu Kuo and the others could only use their bodies to surround Wind Chimes to protect her. Wu Kuo gritted his teeth and replied, “Dream on!”
At the same time, Wind Chimes’ zither sounds came to a swift halt. Under Evil Emperor’s pressure, she could not remain as calm as water. She stared at the great enemy on the roof nervously.
“Heh...” Evil Emperor chuckled. Then, his smile fell away. “You can’t even protect yourself, and you actually think that you can protect this girl’s life in front of me?”
“How would I know without trying?”
One Emperor’s expression was stern as he slowly drew his long black sword from its sheath.
A faint sword whine hummed, and while it was under Evil Emperor’s mental pressure, it swiftly grew louder, and from a barely noticeable hum in the beginning, it turned into a loud roar.
One Emperor seemed to have become greater as well. As his gaze gradually turned fiercer, a fierce sword will that surged to the sky like a mountain fought against Evil Emperor’s mental pressure.
Evil Emperor was first stunned for a moment before he snorted and chuckled. “Not bad. I didn’t expect that your Willpower would be stronger than last time. Now, you can even block my mental pressure.”
Once he said this, he stopped talking for a moment. “But if you want to block my attack, you’ll have to use the sword slashes further down Fatal Thirteen Swords. I’m curious, how long can you protect her?”
As he stood above the rest, the mighty pressure that seemed as if it had tangible form suddenly grew much stronger! Once he finished speaking, Evil Emperor grabbed the air, and a mental attack in the form of a tornado went directly at Wind Chimes and the party. Its momentum was incredibly great.
“Hmph!”
But One Emperor’s speed was always at the top in World of Martial Arts. When he noticed that Evil Emperor had attacked, he did not move, but a purple sword force with black tinges in it shot out in the air, and within it were shattered bits of light.
The mental tornado seemed to have been cut by the slash. Most of the attack instantly negated in the air, and the remaining force charged past One Emperor and his party like a violent gust of wind. It was not threatening whatsoever.
“Very good. Take this as well.”
Evil Emperor was not surprised by this. With a loud bark of laughter, he grabbed the air with both hands and created two mental attacks the shape of tornados.
A black figure moved, and Happy shot out from being flanked by the three martial artists, and his Recondite Steel Heavy Sword descended right in front of Evil Emperor.
Boom!
The roof of the shot instantly sank.
Evil Emperor retreated dozens of feet with a dark expression, and he stared at Happy warily. “Don’t you think you’ve caused enough trouble?”
If it were not for the fact that Happy’s true origin aura was incredibly thick and his goal this time was Wind Chimes, he would want to immediately send Happy into Beijing’s prison for death row criminals.
But it was clear that he did not know that Happy had been waiting secretly for him to attack.
As long as Evil Emperor took the initiative to attack someone in the protected zone, he would no longer be a normal citizen in the eyes of the four Myth Realm martial artists, but an enemy who provoked the imperial court and the royal power.
“You want to kill someone in front of One Emperor and me alone? Don’t you think you’re dreaming a little too big?” Happy unceremoniously turned Evil Emperor’s mocking words on One Emperor right back at Evil Emperor.
Evil Emperor was prepared to answer, but he suddenly noticed that Happy’s position had caused Evil Emperor to arrive near the elite from Six Doors and Vermillion Bird. Two powerful gusts of wind came charging at him.
Elder Smoke and Vermillion Bird might have come for Happy, but when they saw a foreign martial artist commit a crime in front of them in Beijing, they did not hold back and changed their target.
When Evil Emperor noticed that he fell for Happy’s trap, he was already flanked by two Myth Realm martial artists. He scowled, and his expression instantly turned red with rage. He had to attack to parry their attacks, and he could only watch as Happy landed on another roof with a relaxed expression. He had now lost his chance to attack Wind Chimes.
As for the people Dream Clouds stationed in the area, when they saw that Evil Emperor was trapped and Happy reunited with One Emperor, they wisely chose to just watch the group of people leave.
