Chapter 399: Enter Life and Death, Surpass Life and Death

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Even though the Red Flame monster did not have any thoughts to run in his mind, when he saw Happy run toward him confidently and fearlessly with his sword sheathed, his expression turned incredibly unpleasant. The Red Flame monster had been about to attack, but he hesitated. Happy could tell based on his facial expression that he forced the Red Flame monster into a corner.

Even though Second Manor Master was chasing after Happy so that they could launch a pincer attack from the front and back along with Manor Master, at the moment Happy sheathed his sword, the three manor masters still felt fear and surprise, because they could sense the threat coming from that attack.

Even though there was a way to block Emperor Shocks World even when it was executed at a close distance, the young man before their eyes had never attacked when it was inappropriate to do so. The two times he attacked had injured them. So when the Red Flame monster saw Happy’s stance, he remembered what had happened before and did not dare to attack rashly.

He might be very powerful and aggressive, but he had been sent flying by Wind God, and his organs were hurt slightly. He had suffered quite some serious internal injuries, and his abilities were compromised a bit.

Happy had also traumatized him with how he had slashed at his face. So if being truthful, his condition was not any better than that of Manor Master.

If he attacked rashly, Happy would definitely take advantage of the situation.

Hence, when he saw Happy charge over with an aggressive momentum, the Red Flame monster instantly felt fear!

He posture became defensive, and he stared at Happy with a stern expression. He paid attention to the Noble Sword behind him as if he was facing a great enemy.

What he did not know, however, was that he had entered Happy’s trap.

Happy did not slow down and quickly touched his waist.

Whoosh!

He attacked quickly and lightly. Soaring Eagle Swords rushed through the air, and they were so fast that the Red Flame monster and Manor Master, who was behind him, were shocked.

What left them stunned was that when Happy attacked with the Soaring Eagle Swords, he had already reached the peak of his speed, and he pressed down against the hilt of his Noble Sword.

Clang!

He drew his sword slightly out of its sheath.

The Red Flame monster paused in his movements.

Thud!

The two Soaring Eagle Swords that were stuck close to each other split up in the air.

“Careful!”

“Despicable!”

When the Red Flame monster slowed down, the Soaring Eagle Swords went charging toward Manor Master’s face from the left and right. His eyes went wide the moment his stomach and back were about to be struck.

Whine!

Second Manor Master’s eyes grew wide.

When Manor Master noticed that his third junior brother did not protect him and the Soaring Eagle Swords sped toward him, it was already too late for him to block them. He roared in anger and turned his head around. The Soaring Eagle Sword then rammed into his forehead.

The Red Flame monster did not take any action to save Manor Master from the start to the end. He only stared at Happy’s actions. His palms were bloody red, and waves of heat rolled off them as they accumulated strength until the moment they could release it.

Once Happy received the notification from the system, he turned around resolutely and shot past the Red Flame monster, getting thirty-two feet away. He stopped then and looked at Second Manor Master run toward Manor Master’s corpse.

‘What a pity…’

If the Red Flame monster had attacked, the situation would have progressed to an even better direction.

As long as Happy killed the Red Flame monster, he could kill the heavily injured Manor Master at any moment he wanted. But it was a pity that the Red Flame monster was calm and decided to not even save his eldest senior brother!

“Big brother!”

Second Manor Master pounced on Manor Master’s corpse and cried for a while before he glared at the Red Flame monster in indignation. Then, he looked at Happy in anger while hissing through gritted teeth.

“We have to work together to kill him!” He enunciated his words clearly, and his killing intent was clear.

The Red Flame monster’s eyes sparkled for a moment before he shook his head. “No. He has a companion. Our master was released by a girl, and I was injured by our master…”

“What?! That old freak was released? Is she someone on junior sister’s side?” Second Manor Master’s expression changed drastically.

The Red Flame monster turned his head around to look at Black Willow Mountain Manor with a burning gaze, and his tone was somber when he spoke. “That lass knows Black Willow Mountain Manor like the back of her hand. She also understands the poison we gave him. She should be someone on junior sister’s side.”

Second Manor Master’s eyes sparkled for a moment before he said, “We have to hurry back! The old freak won’t be cured of his poison within a short period of time. If he could injure you gravely, it means that he used a secret technique! If we go over right now, we can kill him and the youngsters! No matter what, he can’t run!”

Happy happily let them chat so that he could stall for time, but when he heard Second Manor Master reveal Wind God’s current condition, he knew that the situation was not good. His gaze focused, and he threw another two Soaring Eagle Swords without hesitation.

“He wants to stall for time!” Second Manor Master was incredibly smart, so he flung off the Soaring Eagle Swords, turned around, and left.

“Let’s go!”

The Red Flame monster was already heavily injured, and his speed was not quick to begin with, so he instantly fell behind.

Happy cursed in his heart. The situation had taken a turn for the worse!

He shot forward without hesitation and instantly increased his speed to the max. He caught up to the Red Flame monster as if there was wind behind him, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw another two Soaring Eagle Swords.

“Bastard!”

The Red Flame monster raged, but he was wary of Happy’s skill, which was why he did not dare to parry him. He dodged, but because of it, he immediately gave Happy the chance to overtake him. Happy rushed after Second Manor Master and left him in the dust.

At that moment, the clear sound of the system’s notification suddenly rose beside Happy’s ear.

“Successfully killed Black Willow Mountain Manor’s Manor Master, Life-stealing Golden Silver Hoop. Battle Danger Assessment: Class A. Battle Assessment: Class S. Increase Comprehension by 1. Increase Shadowless Knife by one realm.

“Congratulations! Your qi has reached 320 points!

“You successfully entered Life and Death Realm!

“As of now, your max qi points is 322. Right now you only have 287 points, however, so you are unable to activate Life and Death Realm!”

The sudden system notification caused Happy to understand the blessing of having his qi realm increase during a battle for the first time. Filled with crazed delight, he swallowed a Dew Pill without hesitation.

His qi had just broken through the wall that was 320 points.

Without saying anything, Happy activated Life and Death Realm for the first time. The air current under his feet pushed him ahead, and he suddenly shot forward by several feet. Before, he could only take thirty-two feet forward with one step, but now, he could travel a little more.

He became even faster!

The Red Flame monster was dumbfounded while watching him from behind.

In just the blink of an eye, Happy’s speed increased exponentially. It was suddenly on par with theirs, and he left him far behind him while going after Second Manor Master into Black Willow Mountain Manor.

Uneasiness rose in the Red Flame monster’s heart, but soon, it was replaced by greed. When he thought about how he could work together with his second senior brother once he managed to kill Wind God, he was sure they could kill this youth.

Besides, their master had a hidden manual with him. That lass might have already received the old man’s inheritance, so she needed to be stopped.

When the Red Flame monster thought of that, he gritted his teeth and chased after Happy.

*****

It had been less than five minutes since the mission started, so the moment Second Manor Master got closer, Momo noticed him. At the same time, she noticed Happy, who was in hot pursuit while dressed in Golden Armor.

She had already gotten to know about Manor Master’s death as well. Even though she was not certain how Happy managed to do it, it was still a good thing.

Clang!

She drew her sword without hesitation and jumped off the pavilion like a cloud in front of Senior Wind God, where she took a defensive position.

When Second Manor Master rushed in, he saw Wind God sitting cross-legged while circulating his qi. A fierce light shone in his eyes, and he pounced on him with a roar. Naturally, Momo would not let him get what he wanted so easily. Her sword flashed, and a layer of sword light came sweeping at him like a never-ending waterfall.

Second Manor Master flew into a rage!

“Begone!”

A glare from his broadsword rose. It was several feet wide, and it tore through the sword light like it was nothing. He sent Momo crashing violently into the direction of the artificial mountain.

He moved in a flash and stopped in front of Wind God, who sat on the ground. He had his broadsword held horizontally before his chest, and when he looked down, his face filled with viciousness.

When Happy shot in, he saw that scene. He was just in time to see Second Manor Master execute a horizontal slash, whose momentum was like lightning!

“You traitorous disciple.”

A long sigh reached his ears, and Second Manor Master’s Lionhead Nine-ringed Golden Broadsword came to a stop three-tenths of an inch in front of Wind God.

Happy’s eyes lit up at the sight of it, and he pressed down against his sword hilt with a smack. A sword force sliced through the air.
