Chapter 237: Showdown!

With the key to the third level of Fox Cave appearing, the gathering of the three elite factions—Xia Yi Men, Yi Pin Tang, and Ling Xiao Gong—alongside renowned masters arriving from various regions, the still-unsettled Wuhu became a focal point for many martial artists.
The names “Yao Hua” and his wife… divine weapons… Fox Cave—these terms appeared frequently in the mouths of players in Wuhu County!
Later, the incident where Meng Yun, the leader of Yi Pin Tang, challenged the leader of Xia Yi Men from the Wang Yue Tower acted like a bomb, causing a huge uproar in Wuhu.
More and more people began to pay attention to what was happening at Fox Cave that day!
Whether it was to witness the discovery of divine weapons or to watch the battle between the two major factions, many resolved to go to Fox Fairy Village before nightfall to see the spectacle.
Yet…
Before this shocking news could even die down, an even more exciting news came from the western district of Wuhu!
The once-famous warrior “Kai Xin” single-handedly stormed the headquarters of Wu Du Men, killing enemies and tearing down their banners. He denounced Wu Du Men as cunning and despicable, and since they dared not attack him, they turned their wrath on his brother, “Yao Shi Wan Neng.” His actions were truly despicable!
At that moment, Kai Xin stood outside Wu Du Men’s headquarters, shouting demands that the leader and vice-leader return within ten minutes to apologize, or else he would destroy their gang and erase them from the martial world!
Boom!!!
Wuhu County was in an uproar.
Upon hearing this news, countless players immediately put aside everything they were doing and rushed westward to Wu Du Men’s stronghold.
Within just a few minutes, the entire city was empty—streets and rooftops around Wu Du Men were packed with people, creating an unprecedented scene…
There was nothing to do!
People had seen gangs destroyed, and others had seen individuals storm gang headquarters alone, but such arrogance—demanding preparations and threatening action in ten minutes—was unheard of. And this person was none other than Kai Xin, once the nightmare of countless gangs!
The name “Yao Shi Wan Neng” was also familiar to the people of Wuhu County.
With a magical weapon, the “Human Skin Mask,” he frequently appeared around Fox Cave and Wuhu County. Not only did he possess extraordinary light-speed movement skills, but he had also recently done something that shocked the martial world. So, when they heard that Kai Xin had arrived at Wu Du Men’s headquarters, many guessed that “Yao Shi Wan Neng” must have come as well, ready to cause trouble for Wu Du Men.
Wu Du Men wasn’t a weak gang…

On the contrary, thanks to poisons that reduced people’s combat capabilities and ugly poisonous insects that terrified and distracted them, the Five Poisons Sect enjoyed a formidable reputation in Wuhu. It was a faction that many smaller sects dared not provoke, and it had many skilled fighters, especially its sect leader, “Arrogant Overlord.” Not only had he reached mastery in the art of poisons, but his poisonous skills could even affect the minds of those nearby. He had even slain a top-ranked fighter from the Dragon Ranking list with his own hands. Many believed he would not return after venturing into the Five Poisons Sect alone this time.

Huh…

A dull breeze swept past the entrance of the Five Poisons Sect. On the steps at the main entrance, a broken black flag lay pitifully on the ground, trembling faintly before falling back into silence.

Dozens of tense Five Poisons Sect disciples stood on the stone steps, glaring angrily at the flag that symbolized their sect’s honor. They also glared resentfully at the man in yellow dragon armor right in front of the steps, too afraid to approach and pick it up…

“Five more minutes.”

Kai Xin checked the time, paying no attention to the growing number of Five Poisons Sect disciples gathering outside the main hall. Nor did the dense traffic and crowded crowd around him disturb him. He closed his eyes slightly and gave a calm reminder.

“Wretched scoundrels! You stole our Tiyin and still dare to come here! Do you think the Five Poisons Sect is easy to bully?”

Perhaps because there were more onlookers around, a man who seemed to be the sect leader of the Five Poisons Sect felt it was embarrassing that a group of people was trapped by Kai Xin at the entrance. He stepped forward from the crowd, descended the steps, and shouted angrily!

“Sect Leader Qi!”

The people behind him were startled and shouted to warn him!

But it was too late…

Within a hundred meters, everyone heard a faint sword hum fill the air. In a flash of light, a shadow disappeared quickly from where Kai Xin stood, only to reappear in his original place with a flash of sword light!

On the stone steps, the Five Poisons Sect disciples, under Kai Xin’s cold gaze, quickly pulled back their feet that had been raised. They looked worriedly at Sect Leader Qi, who was frozen in place. Turning their gaze, they saw his pale face, an expression of confusion, as he slowly lowered his head. A dark red stain quickly spread from the area of pain on his chest.

Bang!!

Sect Leader Qi’s last sight was of over a dozen corpses of Five Poisons Sect disciples at the foot of the steps. A faint realization flashed through his mind:

“No wonder…”

The scene of Qi Duozhu falling was captured by countless players around, but few were able to follow his swift movements. All they saw was a yellow figure flashing by before quickly returning to its original position—so fast that it seemed as though it hadn’t moved at all. Gasps and discussions erupted among the crowd:
“Such a fast sword!”
“Tsk tsk, it’s not just fast—his movement skills are far more terrifying than Xiao San’s ‘Fast Sword’. At least Xiao San draws his sword after appearing, but with this guy, you can’t even see the motion of drawing the sword; it seems like drawing and sheathing the sword happen in the same motion…”
“Weren’t he practicing sword and palm techniques before? Why did he suddenly switch to swords?”
“No wonder there’s been no news about him lately—turns out he’s been in seclusion practicing swords… Huh? What kind of sword technique is this? So powerful?!”
“As expected, even the fiercest dragons can’t cross rivers unchallenged. It seems Happy really came prepared! Returning after mastering his skills, he immediately uses his old rival, the Five Poisons Sect, to establish his dominance. The Five Poisons Sect… is in big trouble.”
Those who had previously dismissed Happy’s solo attack on the Five Poisons Sect’s headquarters were now excited too, as the sect had nothing to do with them.
However, some people among the crowd looked grave. They weren’t just there to watch! Besides reevaluating Happy’s strength, they wanted to know why he suddenly appeared here at such a critical moment. Was it just to defend his brother “Medicine That Cures Everything”? Was it really necessary now? After all, Medicine That Cures Everything hadn’t suffered any loss—instead, it was the Five Poisons Sect that had taken a heavy hit.
He could have appeared earlier or later, but choosing to show up just as the various sects were preparing to head to Fox Cave to deal with the Yao Hua couple really caught many people’s attention!
Just as the onlookers waited with various thoughts for the final battle, a voice roaring with internal energy erupted from behind the crowd like thunder:
“Madman!”
“I didn’t go after you, yet you came to me on your own! Come and die!!!”
The furious shout grew louder as it approached. A dark shadow shot forward like lightning, and a gust of wind formed—black, ferocious claws instantly rushed toward Happy’s back…
