The system gave Happy a notification.

[The elites of the six great sects have gathered. You are the one who understands the situation in Eternal Peace Temple the most, and you have received a great duty from Mistress Annihilation. You received Inaction Realm fighters Song Yuanqiao and Yuan Hui’s help.

[Think of a way to save the elites of the six sects. The people of the six great sects will listen to your orders for the next twenty-four hours. If you cannot save the elites or choose not to take action, you will lose the trust of the six sects.]

Right when the system finished speaking, Song Yuanqiao spoke. “Young Swordsman Happy, I heard that you have been in Eternal Peace County all this while, and you have visited Eternal Peace Temple multiple times. You also obtained an authentication token from Mistress Annihilation. Then, you must certainly understand the situation of the Yuan Dynasty soldiers as well as their elites’ defenses. I wonder if you have any good suggestions!”

“Young Swordsman Happy, since you have been going in and out of Eternal Peace Temple at ease, you must have a plan to save the elites from the six sects. Could you tell us your plan? We can discuss it and see whether we can take action tonight!”

“That’s right!”

The elites from the other sects were in a situation of not having a leader. They agreed to the suggestion, and by the looks of it, they were already incredibly eager and impatient to rescue the other elites from their sects.

When Happy heard the NPCs expressing their opinions and stating that they were willing to listen to his orders, he keenly turned the six great system-allocated sects into his leverage and strength to size them up compared to all of Zhao Min’s forces.

If he compared them to the top-tier elites, they would naturally not be their opponents, and their Moksha Realm fighters were not as numerous as Zhao Min’s Moksha Realm elites either, but Happy knew something.

Zhao Min controlled the elites of the six great system-allocated sects so that she could destroy Ming Cult and the six sects in one go, thereby destroying the powers within the world of martial arts and the rebel army that had been fighting against the Yuan Dynasty all this while.

The sect teachers from the six great system-allocated sects were of utmost importance, so Zhao Min’s servants would definitely not leave Eternal Peace Temple.

Based on this, Happy swiftly came up with a rather decent plan!

Since he had a chance to make the Inaction Realm fighters under Zhao Min split up, if he did not do that, he would just be doing himself a disservice.

He could lure out a few of Zhao Min’s elites and use Song Yuanqiao as well as Master Yuan Hui to eat them up one by one. Happy himself would also aid them from the side. While he might not have the quest in the bag, his chances of success were still very high.

‘But…’

A hint of unease flashed through Happy’s heart.

Zhao Min was a woman who was much more cunning than any ordinary person. She was also incredibly ruthless. He might not succeed in his plan to lure out the elites from Eternal Peace Temple.

Besides, the elites from the six great system-allocated sects were poisoned by an incredible poison, and they were in a state of weakness. That was Zhao Min’s greatest leverage. With one slightest mistake, there was a possibility that Happy himself will die.

The quest to save the elites from the six great system-allocated sects was not simple.

But when Happy looked around, he suddenly noticed Leader Hui Xin repeatedly looking behind her. There was worry and anxiety on her face, and it was clear that she was worried about Master Yuan Hui, who was behind them.

Boom!

A thought flashed in his head.

‘I’m truly an idiot. This is such a clear clue…’

Under the surprised gazes from the six great system-allocated sects, Happy patted his head excitedly. “Master Yuan Hui previously said that if we want to save the elites from the six sects, we must first obtain the antidote for Ten Fragrant Tendon Weakening Powder. I believe that the antidote is within Xuanming Elders’ hands.”

The eyes of the elites from the six great system-allocated sects lit up, and Song Yuanqiao said, “Yuan Hui might not have shaken off Xuanming Elders yet! That’s right, this is a perfect chance right now!”

Someone needed to guard the elites from the six great system-allocated sects, but since Lu Zhangke fired the signal arrow, he should have lured out He Biweng. Once both Xuanming Elders appeared, they would be tasty snacks on the six great system-allocated sects’ plate!

“Let’s go!” Happy did not hesitate and called out softly, “Great Swordsman Song and my other seniors, let’s go and provide reinforcements to Master Yuan Hui!

“As long as we can defeat Xuanming Elders and obtain the antidote for Ten Fragrant Tendon Weakening Powder, I will think of a way to sneak into Eternal Peace Temple. At that time, we can work together from the outside and the inside of the temple. There is hope for us to save the teachers of the six sects!”

“Alright!” Song Yuanqiao felt his spirits lift. “We’ll do as you said, Young Swordsman Happy!”

“Everyone, we’ll provide reinforcements to Master Yuan Hui!”

“Let’s go!”

A large group of people followed behind Happy and Song Yuanqiao. They shot in the direction of Intelligent Heart Temple in a mighty wave.

*****

Boom! Boom boom!

Multiple gusts of palm wind that stirred up whines in the air intersected with each other nonstop before they exploded. Two figures in black and white worked together flawlessly. They released nonstop waves of bone-chilling cold qi in the air. Wherever they went, the ground was completely frozen to ice!

The old man dressed in a yellow kasaya had his eyebrows frozen, and white flakes could be seen on them. His face was pale and dejected. The astonis.h.i.+ng chill from Profound Abyss Divine Palm caused him to be surrounded by trouble, and he was forced to retreat repeatedly. His actions had also become much slower.

Clearly, his Nine Yang Skill had been mostly suppressed, and a lot of his qi had been used up. He could only make sure that his organs were not invaded by the poisonous cold.

Master Yuan Hui kept fighting against his enemies calmly while he retreated, but he could no longer break free from Xuanming Elders’ encirclement. If he did not rely on his extraordinary Tendon Change Cla.s.sic to support him, he would have been unable to withstand the duo’s vicious palm strikes a long time ago.

“Old man, I didn’t expect that you would not be inferior to that Abbot Kong Xiang of yours. If we manage to capture you, we will definitely contribute greatly. It’s a pity that you ruined my fun, you old coot. I might actually have to take your life today and send you to the west to meet your Buddha!”

Lu Zhangke laughed savagely while acc.u.mulating strength in his palms!

When Yuan Hui sensed the pressure that came from the duo, a hint of solemnness and sadness flashed past his eyes.

“Amitabha, if I can ensure Abbess Hui Xin and her disciples’ lives with this life of mine, I will accept my death with grace. It is a pity that I cannot save the people from the six sects.”

“You d.a.m.n monk, even when you’re about to die, you still pretend to be all high-and-mighty?! I look down on this type of people the most.”

He Biweng had a dark look on his tanned face. He snorted coldly and seized the moment Yuan Hui’s qi fell into decline and stopped circulating for a moment. He rammed his palm against the monk’s kasaya…

The power of Profound Abyss Divine Palm already struck Yuan Hui through the air. He grunted and flew dozens of feet away before he landed and took around ten steps back. He then suddenly turned around and charged into the forest.

“You’re thinking of running?!”

Xuanming Elders laughed savagely and chased after him.

But right when they rushed into the forest, a sword force that brought about great pressure descended from the sky!

“Enemy ambus.h.!.+”

“It’s Wudang Sect’s sword technique!”

He Biweng of Xuanming Elders reacted incredibly quickly. He swiftly pulled back and avoided that sudden slash. Lu Zhangke cast a glance at Song Yuanqiao, who had appeared in the area, and tapped against the ground to continue after Yuan Hui. There was no way he was going to accept his target, who was already seconds away from dying, to run away.

“So it’s you, Great Swordsman Song.”

When He Biweng saw that there was no one else in the area, he snorted coldly through his nose and spread open his palms slightly. A faint chill swiftly surged out from his hands.

Song Yuanqiao’s expression was calm as he slowly drew his sword.

*****

Lu Zhangke chased after the monk for a while when he suddenly noticed that the fleeing monk had stopped moving. A wary expression appeared in his eyes, and he immediately noticed that there was something strange about the atmosphere.

The forest was not dense to begin with, but at some point in time, it had become incredibly open. The great fighters from the six system-allocated sects appeared around him, and while their aura was not as great as his, they were still powerful martial artists from the world of martial artists.

“Form your formation!”

A loud shout rose into the air. The six great system-allocated sects brought out their weapons and formed their sects’ formations before they surrounded Lu Zhangke!

Lu Zhangke’s face turned pale. It was only at that point that he noticed that he had unknowingly violated two of the greatest martial artists’ taboos.

Do not carelessly enter a forest, and do not chase desperate enemies!
