Chapter 207: The Velvet-Clothed Hero Ji Feng

Fox Spirit Village, Martial Temple.
As familiar faces emerged staggeringly from the temple, Situ Luoyu and Gu Dulu Changle’s intense anger gradually subsided. Learning the details from these people only made their hearts grow colder. The sudden drop in temperature, their gloomy expressions, and growing murderous intent made the surrounding players who were taking pleasure in their misfortune lower their heads and stay away…
“That means you all died at Happy’s hands… just him…”
“…”
The twenty-some players, pale and weak, all lowered their heads in shame, too embarrassed to speak.
Their suspicions confirmed, Situ Luoyu and Gu Dulu Changle’s already pale faces turned even whiter. They took deep breaths and remained silent for a long time.
Originally!
Dying suddenly from the Tang Sect’s ruthless hidden weapon, the “Rain of Pear Blossoms Needle,” had deeply hurt them, but more so, it filled them with anger and resentment!
But now…
Nearly a hundred top experts surrounding Happy, what should have been an easy capture turned into such an unexpected situation. A group of highly skilled members they relied on, the backbone of their gang, were defeated by one man who single-handedly fought his way through and killed over twenty of them! No one did anything! Not only did they fail to seriously injure Happy, but it seemed they couldn’t even break through his protective barrier!!!
Gu Dulu Changle, who used to be extremely proud and dismissive of ordinary players, had his pride utterly shattered twice by Happy that day. Sitting on the ground, his chest heaving violently, he couldn’t vent his fury. The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt…
“Brother Changle.”
Situ Luoyu, who was more calculating, calmed down quickly after a brief moment of turmoil. His expression showed little emotion as he said, “Don’t rush. No matter how strong Happy is, he’s still just one person, a Player at the Fate Realm… Facing so many of us, his protective barrier can’t last long. Eventually, he’ll pay the price.”
Compared to them, he didn’t care much about these sacrifices. He had been prepared from the start—so long as they could capture Happy and suppress him, even if more people died, he wouldn’t regret it. With the backing of the First-Class Hall, the Luoyu Sect still had a chance to recover and rise again.
But…
Gu Dulu Changle was different.

He closed his eyes deeply, took a breath, and sighed, “Don’t forget—right now it’s only Happy acting alone; there are three others inside…” Implying that even Happy is so difficult to deal with, if the four of them unite, the ultimate loss for both factions might double.

“…”

Stu Luoyu frowned and was about to speak to comfort them when another low gasp came from beside him. Looking up, they saw two more people emerging from the temple—members of the Changle Sect…

Seeing two more comrades fall, Gudu Changle’s face paled even more, and his frown deepened.

“Are you guys? What’s going on in there?”

As the two approached, someone in the crowd recognized them as one of the players sent by Ji Feng into the Death Wolf Woman’s secret chamber, and immediately became interested, pressing for details about what had happened inside.

“…”

The two exchanged a bitter look and recounted in detail what had happened after entering the Death Wolf Woman’s secret chamber.

They said that after Ji Feng ordered them to enter, their group intended to catch the people inside off guard. But before reaching the chamber’s main hall, they were held back for a while by a player named “Universal Medicine.”

“Universal Medicine?”

Stu Luoyu frowned slightly, as if recalling something.

No one around noticed, but the man nodded. “Yes, the one with excellent lightness skills. None of us could keep up with him, and we almost got hurt by him. It was only by working together that we managed to force him into the chamber’s main hall.”

“Happy’s group has only four members. Happy is outside, and one of them is holding you back. Could the remaining two really withstand the Death Wolf Woman’s attacks?”

Suddenly, someone realized this, and everyone around them gasped in shock!

“No!”

The man smiled bitterly. “There’s another one inside.”

“Hongchen?”

Gudu Changle’s breath hitched as he uttered the name of someone he had never forgotten.

“That’s right, it’s him!”

“They really ended up together.”

At that moment, Stu Luoyu also felt the pressure on his shoulders increase dramatically. But then he thought again and found it suspicious. “That doesn’t make sense. Even with Hongchen there, and though he’s injured, it’s impossible for three people to withstand the Death Wolf Woman. How did you manage to get back?”

“It was Hongchen,” the two replied with bitter smiles at the same time.

“We still don’t understand the specifics. Something seems really off today—the opponent seems to have a way to see the Dead Wolf Girl, and her strength has also dropped significantly compared to usual. On top of that, someone single-handedly held off the Dead Wolf Girl… With Hong Chen and Yao Shi Wan Neng joining forces, we simply can’t cope. Oh! Hong Chen… it seems his injuries have healed. With the two of us dead, the others will probably run away.”
“…”
In an instant, the crowd outside the Martial Temple fell into even deeper silence.
Even Si Tu Luo Yu’s confidence in surrounding and killing Happy began to waver.
Hong Chen and Happy had joined forces, and once they were free, they would pose a huge threat to those outside!
Although he didn’t want to admit it or face it…
Surrounding and killing Happy seemed truly unlikely…
So many people had died not only without capturing Hong Chen and Happy, but also allowing these two troublesome foes to unite. The situation had completely slipped out of his control!
“What should we do now?”
Gu Du Chang Le looked at Si Tu Luo Yu, feeling utterly exhausted. Even if they went to the Fox Cave now, they couldn’t enter—it would take over half an hour to reach the end of the second level, not to mention the time wasted dealing with the large group of outraged players outside the cave…
“What else can we do?”
Si Tu Luo Yu’s face was filled with helplessness and powerlessness. Both sides were currently in battle, making it impossible to send messages or issue orders.
Moreover, he was already thinking about how to report the failure of this operation to the sect leader and request more core members to deal with Happy.
He had a feeling!
Happy had already turned against them, and if they continued to let him grow stronger, even the Dream Cloud Sect leader, who ranked first on the Phoenix List, might struggle to control him!
…
While Si Tu Luo Yu and Gu Du Chang Le planned their next steps, the battle outside the Fox Cave’s secret chamber had evolved from intense fighting to a stalemate.
Members of the two major factions were gradually figuring out Happy’s tactics.
His “Shadowless Swift Leg” was astonishing in speed but not very lethal;
His swordsmanship was powerful, but his attack speed was average. If not for his strong defensive abilities, he would have been slain long ago!
“First team, retreat!”
“Second team, attack!”
Ji Feng, who had watched for a while, took charge of commanding both factions. Standing calmly outside the circle, he loudly directed the troops in attacks and defenses.

Under Ji Feng’s orders, those surrounding Kai Xin gradually adapted and formed orderly ranks. Following his commands, they attacked and defended in coordination, effectively preventing further casualties.
With each attack, at least four people launched full-force assaults on the golden light shield…
Each time, the shield trembled violently, its glow dimming slightly.
At first, Kai Xin didn’t realize anything was wrong. It wasn’t until the golden shield grew increasingly dim and its defensive capabilities dropped to a dangerous level that he finally spotted the middle-aged man giving orders from outside the crowd.
“Ji Feng?”
The familiar face in the distance caused Kai Xin to lose focus for a moment.
Boom!
Several attacks from behind struck Kai Xin at the same time. The golden shield trembled violently before collapsing completely. Driven by the remaining force, Kai Xin pushed his way through the crowd and slammed into the wall.
