Seventh was already in the process of fleeing while cradling his wounded arm.
Once Happy cut off his hand with one slash, his abilities dropped by a large degree. The pain was unbearable, and without any suspense, he was pierced to death with one single sword thrust by Happy.
“If you have the guts, fight me headon!” Thirteen shouted in anger.
Right when he said those words, Happy turned his head around and chuckled. “As you wish.”
When he finished speaking, he flipped his sword around and put it into his Universe Bag. He turned around and faced Thirteenth with his hands.
Not only did Happy’s actions not cause Thirteenth to put on a delighted expression, his pupils dilated, and he sucked in a sharp breath. His furious expression instantly turned into great solemnity.
Restrain!
This was restraint that only a handful of high-end players understood.
Palm techniques were absolutely not to be used against spear techniques, because spear techniques were fierce and continuous, and they also had the advantage of long weapons. Before the fist user could get close, he or she would already be pummeled. Not using it was a form of restraint.
Using a sword technique against a spear technique meant that neither could gain the upperhand over each other.
But if someone managed to use an axe technique well, he or she could use the damage and parry effects from the axe to counter most sword techniques and saber techniques. When they faced spear techniques, they could fight on equal grounds. But when they faced palm techniques, which were martial arts that were highly adaptable to any situation, had great speed, and were close-range skills, forget about not being able to catch up in terms of speed, axe users would not even be able to block their attacks.
If Happy had used a sword technique, even if it was at Moksha Realm, Thirteenth Elder would not be afraid of him. In fact, he was confident he could brutally kill Happy.
But when he saw Happy use a Life and Death Realm fist technique and claw technique, Thirteenth Elder felt his hair instantly rise, and he became highly alert and focused while he waited for Happy’s attack.
However, there were advantages as well as disadvantages to Happy’s changes in his attacks.
Once he switched to his palms, he lost his ability to intimidate his other enemy.
Third originally held a jade xiao in his hands. Once he saw that his music could not affect Happy, he did not dare face Happy head on, because he was very wary of Happy’s sword technique.
Even Seventh had his arm turn numb by the shock from his sword, and if he were affected, Third would definitely be affected. Happy had already perfected his use of hidden force, and in fact, he had already reached transcendent levels with it. If Third fought against him, he would suffer a setback. If he revealed even the slightest opening in front of an enemy of this level, he would die, which was why he did not dare go up against Happy even after a long time had passed.
But now that Happy stopped using his sword, he became less wary, and he charged straight into the battlefield.
“I’ll help you, Thirteenth!”
The Third Elder’s act of joining the fight allowed the Thirteenth Elder to feel his pressure largely reduce.
Even though the howling xiao notes would not create any effects on Happy, with someone holding Happy back, he would not be able to fight too freely against Thirteenth.
“Haha! Do you think that I won’t be able to do anything to you just because you’re fighting me two against one?!”
After exchanging more than ten moves with them, Happy laughed long and hard before he leisurely stretched out his arm to grab Third’s jade xiao with Dragon Capture.
A powerful suction force caused Third’s body to freeze.
“Get lost!”
The Thirteenth Elder’s axe came at Happy to take his life.
Among the two elders, one was fast, and the other was slow, but they made a pretty decent team. They could cover each other mistakes’ perfectly.
But this time, the opponent they faced was different from what they usually went up against.
Happy was a person who was used to suppress his urges to create chances for himself.
When he sensed the axe-generated wind above him bring with it a power that could tear apart everything, Happy remained calm. His hidden force pulsed, and it easily dissolved the true qi the Third Elder was prepared to gather inside him. He pulled the Third Elder while Happy himself retreated, and the person who had to face the Thirteenth Elder’s axe instantly turned into the Third Elder.
“Oh no!”
There was indeed no way a person at the same level could break Ten True Dragon Styles.
When the Thirteenth Elder swung his axe down, he noticed that the situation was off.
He widened his eyes in anger, cold sweat poured down his body, and he quickly switched his attack.
“Haha!”
The Thirteenth Elder’s attack fell to the side, and this created the perfect chance for Happy to attack.
While the Thirteenth Elder’s energy in his last attack was completely gone and he could not muster new strength for his next attack just yet, Happy used a Petite Dragon and forced himself in between the two. He then stretched out his arms to the sides and executed Dragon Capture with both hands.
If it were not for the fact that his qi had increased greatly over the past few days and the fact that Tendon Changing Classic’s recovery abilities had already almost caught up to Nine Yang Divine Skill, Happy might not be able to use Ten True Dragon Styles so smoothly without other worries boggling him down. After using it repeatedly, his qi was largely depleted, and he fell straight back to Life and Death Realm.
But now, his qi was replenished until it was nearly eight hundred again.
He absolutely had no problem in executing Ten True Dragon Styles repeatedly.
When he seized the duo, Happy used his hands and legs together. With one kick, he sent the Thirteenth Elder away, then used the sturdy and thick heavy armor to assist him in his jump to the Third Elder, and he collided into the Third Elder, sending him flying dozens of feet away.
Hidden force pulsed from the tips of his feet and shoulders at the same time.
Both grunted.
One of them staggered two steps backwards, and the other withstood most of the damage, rendering his face pale. He flew more than thirty feet away.
What caused the Third Elder and the group of Blood Alliance members to feel chills all over their bodies was that Happy was like stuck to the Third Elder like a maggot.
As Happy performed various minimal actions, the Third Elder trembled irregularly. The weakening of his body fortification outside his body might not be obvious, as Happy’s swift explosion of hidden forces rose, the Third Elder’s organs suffered huge shocks, and blood quickly trickled out of the corners of his mouth.
Silence.
The man with the red jade fan outside the crowd held his fan handle tightly at some point of time. With a dark expression, he stared at Happy as he punched the Third Elder with the intent to kill. Quietly and as discreetly as possible, he made a gesture to the people behind him.
The group of Blood Alliance members quickly moved.
“Kill him!”
“Save the Third Elder and the Thirteenth Elder!”
A few seconds later, the man with the red jade fan swung his fan down viciously, and the hundreds of people blocking the front and back of the canyon charged out like water breaking out of a dam.
Dozens of faint blue will-o’-the-wisps crashed violently into each other.
But an unexpected scene appeared.
Just when the Blood Alliance members in the canyon charged forward to surround Happy and kill him, a black figure suddenly shot toward them from above.

Bang! Bang!
The Third Elder’s body was tossed at them like a weapon.
The Third Elder crashed into the crowd from above. While he was airborne, he extinguished quite a number of torches, and he crashed violently into the crowd, causing Blood Alliance to descend into chaos.
“Ack!”
That was not all, Happy followed closely behind him and charged into the crowd as well. He swung his longsword before pulling it back, and he snuffed out quite a number of torches on the spot. The canyon was never wide to begin with, and while chaos was around, he swung his sword, instantly causing the place to be completely swathed in darkness.
There was darkness all around.
The Blood Alliance members were instantly at a loss.
In the chaos, the sounds of weapons being drawn could be heard nonstop, but there was no one who truly dared attack. After all, everyone around them might be their own people.
Naturally, Happy would not miss such a great chance. With his Great Demonic World Destruction Art—now at the ninth realm after he practiced hard with it—he started executing his attacks indiscriminately.
Pained screams and furious shouts were heard nonstop.
But Happy did not have a lot of chances to attack.
Not only did the people from the other rush over with their torches, someone in the crowd also started shouting for them to light up torches to illuminate the area.
Unfortunately, Happy knew that his training speed was about to be exposed very soon, and he was already determined to give Blood Alliance an unforgettable experience, so it was only par for the course that he would not miss such a rare chance.
Before the faint light could shine in his direction, he moved about and swung his sword in the crowd while he used Dragon Capture and extinguished the torches.
“Ack!”
Those Blood Alliance members were thrown at the torches around them while Happy used them like shields. He continuously created chaos like this.
His sword glares were attached with hidden forces and burn effects, and they continuously killed or injured Blood Alliance members. The night had also become the best cover for his sword glares, which were shrouded in black flames.
People who sent flying nonstop in the narrow canyon, and during the fight, all sorts of pained screams and furious shouts were mixed together.
In the disorder, no Blood Alliance member was able to lock down or locate Happy’s figure. When they attacked, they injured their own people instead.
Occasionally, they would fall to the ground because of their friends crashing into them. Then, they would face fierce sword glares coming at them.
The situation was in such great mayhem that the man with the red jade, who was the one who organized the operation, felt himself suffering a mental breakdown.
The Blood Alliance members had to keep stepping on their friends’ corpses on the ground in the canyon, and pained screams could be heard nonstop.
But Happy just continued moving further into the crowd. He used his unmastered Indestructible Body and Petite Dragon to create even further chaos.
“We’re all mad…”
The man with the red jade fan and the Thirteenth Elder had already retreated to the area outside the crowd. When they heard the occasional tormented cries and enraged roars from the darkness ahead of them, they gritted their teeth in exasperation.
“The field of vision in Ghost’s Domain is too small! And we’re fighting against Happy in such a narrow place?! Look at what you’ve done! Are you trying to set up Happy or scheme against our own?!”
The Thirteenth Elder could not quite calm himself down.
But only the Blood Alliance members suffered from poor visibility and the complicated environment. With Happy’s ability, he could clearly see everything around him. He moved around the area as easily as he would move on flat ground, and he did not hold back at all when he attacked.
While the man with the red jade fan was wary of the Thirteenth Elder, he was not willing to have all the responsibility shoved on his shoulders. He retorted angrily, “How was I supposed to know that the three of you can’t even kill Happy when you work together?!”
“Enough with the nonsense and send the order to retreat! You don’t want all of us to die here, do you?!”
“Hmph!” The man with the red jade fan gnashed his teeth together. “Blood Alliance members, withdraw from Ghost’s Domain!”
Once he released his orders, the canyon instantly became much livelier.
They were already terrified by Happy slaughtering them alone but were unable to find even his shadow. The Blood Alliance members were already thinking about retreating, and when they heard the order, they felt like criminals who had just been pardoned of their crimes. The people who were rushing forward retreated, and they blocked the narrow canyon. Many people were even too lazy to find their torches.
They squeezed together in one cluster.
Happy was delighted, and he began to harvest them like wheat even more fearlessly. He chased after the location with more people and killed with his sword.
The Blood Alliance members could only cry endlessly in bitterness.
The people in front blocked the canyon, and they could not even run away. Happy, who chased behind them, was like an invisible demon. He continued killing without stopping, and he spilled blood all over a large stretch of ground.
Quite a number of people screamed in panic for the people to run faster.
Terrified screeches and screams of pain traveled far and wide.
The area Blood Alliance locked down was not actually long.
Sometimes, Eight-eyed Parasitic Spiders, Ghost Scorpions, and even Demonic Venomous Larva would appear to block their paths and take their lives.
The narrow canyon leading to the exit instantly turned into a long trek that was incredibly dangerous.
When they heard the sounds in the canyon, some of the parties in the canyons were unable to hold their curiosity back, and they ran to the entrances of the valleys to check, but all they heard was the sound of a longsword piercing through bodies, along with screams.
Some unfortunate sods even had blood all over their bodies.
“What happened?”
“I have no idea.”
“Might be some sect fighting for territory again.”
“Oh please, this is Ghost’s Domain. They have plenty of places to train. Do they actually need to do this?”
“Don’t waste your time on them. We can’t see clearly in this stupid place. If we get closer, we might get dragged in. Let’s go back and continue training.”
*****
Once the people from Blood Alliance fled from Ghost’s Domain, they noticed that there were only a miserable handful of people left behind them.
The man with the red jade fan and the Thirteenth Elder instantly had their expressions turn incredibly dark.
They walked among the injured and incredibly pathetic Blood Alliance members, their faces turned even paler.
“What about the others? Are they all dead?”
“Are these the only ones who fled?”
Before their voices faded away, a familiar and cold voice traveled out of Ghost’s Domain. “There’s still some here? Good, because I haven’t had my fill in killing yet.”
