Chapter 1049  : Last Breath

The situation changed!

This phrase would be the most apt to describe the current situation in Wind Assault Tower.

One moment ago, countless Wind Assault Tower members were incredibly excited because Happy had successfully lured away Evil Emperor’s attention and helped Wind Assault Tower get rid of multiple aces from Class One Hall. Their morale was high, but they did not expect that in just the blink of an eye, the pillar of strength in Wind Assault Tower would crumble.

No one knew what happened in the middle.

Even Wu Kuo and a group of elites looked at each other at a loss before they stared at the few figures who appeared in Class One Hall’s group. Their expressions turned incredibly dark.

The change happened too fast!

The group could not react to the situation at all. They just saw Evil Emperor’s attack descend, and the area where Happy was exploded.

Then, Happy did not do what he did previously, where he quickly broke out and continued killing. Instead, a faint grunt rose from within, and a black flame shot up from the dust. Before Wind Assault Tower could understand what happened, Happy seemed to be rammed into by an incredibly powerful force, and he staggered. The true origin aura around him swiftly diminished, and the remaining two feet was soon reduced to only a thin layer. In the end, he did not even have the chance to fight back. He landed at Evil Emperor’s feet while he was drenched in blood.

They sucked in sharp breaths quietly, and countless gazes narrowed their eyes at that moment.

What did they see?

Happy’s demon vessels might all be at the fourth echelon and were all at supreme grade, but during the moment just now, it was as if they had suffered multiple attacks. All his demon vessels, especially the ones covering his chest and back, were damaged in multiple areas. Blood gushed out of the damaged parts, and his wounds were a bloody mess.

Compared to Happy, Evil Emperor, who was close to him, stood with his back straight. He was as mighty and great as ever, and he looked down at Happy, who was torn to bloody ribbons and was at the last of his breath by his feet. His gaze stopped for a few seconds at the fatal wound on his chest, and no one could tell whether his expression was indifferent or grave. He mumbled, “If you had not been hiding for so long and fought against me head on, I will have definitely given you the fairest environment for you to fight against me. It’s a pity...”

Evil Emperor’s voice might be soft, and he might not have used any qi, but at that moment, the entire area was quiet. All gazes were directed at the same spot, and all that he said could be heard clearly.

It was only then that the group of Wind Assault Tower members saw a few figures walk out simultaneously from Class One Hall’s crowd.

When they saw these people, Wu Kuo and the rest widened their eyes.

The one walking at the front was Lion’s Roar Shi Huasheng, and beside him was the hidden force elite Luo Jing, to whom Happy had indirectly killed. Both people walked out of the crowd with complicated expressions and arrived next to Happy while he was clinging to life. They stared at his body for a while with their eyes sparkling. No one knew what they were thinking about, but they did not attack Happy, who had difficulty even moving.

The last person who walked out of the crowd was not an elite in the Chinese server, but he was someone incredibly familiar to all the people in the Chinese server. He was Flame Wolf of Wild Wolves.

Yes, Flame Wolf.

He had been lurking in the Chinese server all this while, and over the past half a month, he did not show up or reveal any news about himself.

He was different from Luo Jing and Shi Huasheng. He walked out of the crowd murderously and arrived near Happy. Then, he rudely kicked Happy, producing a loud thud in the process.

“Bastard! You’re the reason why I didn’t dare log in over the past ten days!”

“Urk!”

Every inch of Happy’s body was in pain, and now, when that fierce stomp landed on his wound, he immediately felt as if he was about to die.

When they saw this, many people from Wind Assault Tower finally understood what happened.

Happy had been instantly killed because Class One Hall and Wild Wolves had worked together to fight against him!

With Flame Wolf’s crowd control, Shi Huasheng’s Lion’s Roar, and Luo Jing’s hidden force, these three people became unique top-class elites in the game. Once they worked together with the strongest player in the world, Evil Emperor, perhaps no one would be lucky enough to escape death. After all, this lineup could produce a very terrifying crowd control effect.

Wu Kuo and the rest saw that Flame Wolf was still using his foot to trample on Happy’s body, and their eyes instantly turned bloodshot. They gritted their teeth and wanted badly to immediately give up on everything to rush forward and save him!

Who was Happy? Not a Wind Assault Tower member, that’s what!

This was a fight concerning Wind Assault Tower’s life and death, but for the sake of the Chinese world of martial artists, Happy had resolutely refused the invitation by the strongest organization with the greatest power in World of Martial Arts and stood by Wind Assault Tower to help them fight against Class One Hall and Wild Wolves.

Happy would not gain any benefits from this fight. In fact, he would be in grave danger, but Happy still stood out to help them, and he had even helped them last until now.

“All Wind Assault Tower members, hear me! Follow me and save him!” Wu Kuo’s eyes were entirely red. He looked terrifying and murderous, as if he no longer cared about his own survival.

The group of elders beside Wu Kuo already noticed that Wu Kuo and the others’ expressions were off, and they held them back with their bodies while they shouted, “Vice Tower Master Wu, you have to prioritize the whole situation above all else! The tower master is waiting for us outside, and we can’t throw ourselves into disarray!”

Wu Kuo turned his head around and shouted, “Nonsense! If Happy dies, who among you can stop Evil Emperor?!”

He was the one who understood Wind Assault Tower’s current situation the most, and he also knew that their reinforcements would need at least thirty-five minutes before they would arrive. But even at this moment, he still retained part of his rationality and did not voice out the predicament that Phantasmal Shadow and Beijing faced right then.

“Vice Tower Master Wu, Brother Happy can be revived after he dies! We still have a chance, don’t let other thoughts cloud your judgment! We will have tens of thousands of people in the headquarters who need your command!”

Many of the elders spoke of Wu Kuo’s importance with great sincerity and stopped Wu Kuo and his group with everything they had.

*****

“Flame Wolf!” Evil Emperor glared at Flame Wolf.

Flame Wolf noticed Evil Emperor’s displeasure and pulled his leg back resentfully. Once he did, he did not forget to spit viciously in Happy’s direction. “If you dare revive, I will kill you. You’re the one who caused me to be humiliated so much at that time...”

Once he finished speaking, he took two steps back under Evil Emperor’s gaze, which was gradually burning with anger. He no longer said anything.

Evil Emperor did not care about Wind Assault Tower falling into chaos after they lost their support. Once his gaze left Flame Wolf, he looked at Happy again with a slight frown.

“You’re really good.”

When they heard Evil Emperor talk to the dying Happy, Class One Hall stopped talking and listened attentively.

“You were hit twice, then struck by Lion’s Roar and more than ten hidden forces. Then, even after that, you were struck another seven times by me, and you still managed to live. You’re truly a tough one. As expected of Shaolin Temple’s supreme classic, Tendon Changing Classic. If I let you grow a little more, you might be fully deserving of the title as the strongest player in the Chinese server. Even One Emperor will not be able to stand as your equal.”

Boom!

Once Evil Emperor said those words, Class One Hall instantly burst into commotion.

A large number of people looked at each other at a loss, and their expressions were filled with shock and disbelief.

Evil Emperor’s appraisal toward Happy could be said to be incredibly high, but that was not all.

Judging by Evil Emperor’s words, though that chaotic battle had lasted for only a few seconds, during that time, Happy had actually been surrounded by multiple top-class elites, and three unique elites had helped Evil Emperor to control Happy, which was why Happy fell.

And even so, Happy seemed to not have died.

‘This is...’

When they stared at Happy, who was at the last of his breath while he laid on the ground in a bloody mess, the pleasure of having their hatred vented and anger instantly disappeared without a trace, and those emotions were replaced by respect and shock.

When the people from Wind Assault Tower heard Evil Emperor’s confession, they understood what happened to Happy just now, and while they were still angry, they were also filled with an emotion they could not describe. They did not know whether they should sigh in admiration or be happy for Happy’s feats.

“Ha... ha...”

Just when everyone thought that Evil Emperor’s description of the fight just now was the final words he would say before he killed Happy, Happy, who was heavily injured on the ground, suddenly moved his fingers and released a string of mocking words falteringly, “Evil Emperor... I’m not surprised... that you would... say it yourself... If I were... the one saying it... and telling everyone... that you relied on three people... to help you... before you managed... to defeat me... perhaps Wild Wolves and you... will be very humiliated... Haha...”

Countless people stared at Happy while he remained in his bloody state on the ground. They could not believe that a person who had suffered such grievous wounds would actually live and was still able to speak.

No one knew whether it was because Happy had revealed something or whether it was because of the mocking tone in Happy’s words, but killing intent flashed in Evil Emperor’s eyes. Then, he quickly recovered before he said calmly, “You can say whatever you want. Since you’re still alive, I won’t kill you.”

He stopped talking for a moment before Evil Emperor looked down at him and said, “After I destroy Wind Assault Tower, I will stay in the Chinese server for a while. At that time, you can come and challenge me at any time you want.”

Evil Emperor’s domineering air and confidence was revealed fully through his words.

“Hmph!” Flame Wolf took two steps forward and stared at Happy with a hostile gaze, “Leader, why are you keeping him alive? If you kill him, we’ll have peace. One Emperor is about to come to Beijing, and there are also the other factions of power in Beijing—”

Evil Emperor did not look at Happy anymore and smiled before he said, “No. It’s better for us if we keep him alive. Speaking of which, he’s really good, and he’s a tank. If he comes again, he’ll still be a real annoyance.”

Flame Wolf and the people around him had their eyes light up.

Evil Emperor was right.

Happy had killed around seventy top-class elites during the battle just now and had indirectly killed even more. His Wave-like Subtle Steps could help him get here from Guanlin Temple within a short amount of time, and if he really did come, he would indeed pose as quite the threat and bring a lot of problems.

Flame Wolf might be unable to accept this result, but once a thought appeared in his head, he said, “Leader, you’re really smart! I might as well keep an eye on this brat. I’ll make sure he doesn’t die, and also make sure he can’t do anything.”

As he spoke, his eyes started moving up and down Happy’s limbs and joints viciously.

Evil Emperor cast Flame Wolf a glance before he slowly nodded.

Flame Wolf was delighted. He knew that his leader had allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

Without hesitation, he grabbed the back of Happy’s neck, and as if he was holding on to a dead dog, he brought Happy to the back, and his actions caused multiple people from Wind Assault Tower’s side to have their eyes burn with rage, and he cursed him nonstop.

“Bastard! I swear on my life that I will kill you!” Wu Kuo was so agitated that his lips had been bitten through, and blood dyed his teeth red.

Flame Wolf did not care about the curses behind him. He just did things at his own pace and tossed Happy outside the wall before he laughed coldly. “Hey, brat, your heart is beating quite strongly. Looks like Tendon Changing Classic has strengthened your body to the point that you’re stronger than the average person by a few levels. You’re still not dead after suffering such heavy internal injuries and external injuries? If that’s the case, if you have a few joints dislocated and a few bones broken, you should still be fine...”

Before his voice faded away, he broke Happy’s arm without hesitation.
