Chapter 379: Unimpaired Strength?

The Assassins’ Hall.
An employment organization mainly composed of Tang Sect disciples, it had no formal gang structure, yet it was well-known—thanks to Tang Feng, the seventh-ranked expert on the Dragon List, who had taken on countless assassination missions. Experts on the Dragon List charge one million per mission, and so far, he had killed at least seventeen gang leaders or highly skilled experts from the Dragon List.
The other members of the Assassins’ Hall were also highly skilled, wielding secret weapons from the Mysterious Realm along with various poisoned weapons, making each of them capable of challenging even the strongest warriors on the Dragon-Phoenix List.
In just over a month, despite having no base, the Assassins’ Hall had left an indelible mark in the hearts of many gangs!
However, for Tang Feng, the only flaw of the Assassins’ Hall was their failed attempts to assassinate Happy.
That time, he personally took action, using every trick in his arsenal. Though he managed to force Happy to hand over his golden set of armor, he couldn’t bring out Happy’s full strength, resulting in failure.
So, when he received the second commission letter from Meng Yun, the leader of the First-Class Hall, Tang Feng smiled.
Although Happy was in poor form and now resorted to extreme methods, thinking of Happy’s current fame and influence, as well as the benefits and reputation that killing him could bring, Tang Feng couldn’t find any reason to refuse.
……
Boom!!
The main gate of the First-Class Hall’s branch in Hongwu City shattered violently. Happy remained calm, walking in indifferently.
When a group of First-Class Hall disciples saw Happy enter the main hall, they finally couldn’t hold back. Several of them pulled out flying knives, secret weapons, and the like.
“Attack!!”
Various secret weapons and flying knives marked the beginning of the battle within the First-Class Hall.
Happy and Yao Shi Wan Neng disappeared simultaneously from their positions…
Although Yao Shi Wan Neng had been quiet for a long time, his light-footwork and sword skills remained unchanged. He moved as fast as ever, slipping through the crowd like a ghost. Along the way, several people cried out in pain—their defenses were utterly useless against him, and deep or shallow wounds quickly appeared on their arms and legs.
“The Sacred Spirit Sword Technique?”
At first, Happy was somewhat worried about Yao Shi Wan Neng, but upon seeing the skilled sword light—resembling tiny halos—as Yao Shi Wan Neng moved effortlessly through the crowd, he felt relieved.
It was actually the Twenty-One Sword Moves of the Sacred Spirit.
One of the top-tier sword technique manuals at the Mysterious Realm level, it was incredibly fast! It could inflict damage by ignoring all defensive barriers—without relying on internal energy, it wasn’t affected by defenses and could directly harm the target. It was a truly unique sword technique.

The only weakness of this sword technique is that the damage dealt by the Holy Spirit Sword Art is too low. One can often gain the upper hand right from the start, but over time, as their protective abilities decline, they easily fall into a disadvantageous position. Seeing this, Kai Xin promptly withdrew his gaze. The Qing Ming Sword emitted an astonishing sword glow—a deep blue light mixed with faint purplish and red hues—that struck hard at the five first-rank Tang disciples in the front who couldn’t dodge in time! The sword glow arced through the air before suddenly intensifying. The five men were struck like by lightning; their protective barriers couldn’t withstand Kai Xin’s attacks. They staggered, spewing blood as they fell into the crowd. Activating the “Illusion Demon Movement,” Kai Xin rushed into the crowd right behind them. Wind Spirit Spin! Targeting the wounded five, he delivered another series of sword strikes from among them until he heard the system’s kill notification, at which point he shifted his focus. Two swords! Five men!! The first-rank Tang disciples gasped in shock. “Has Kai Xin really died once?” Such an implausible question flashed through their minds. Each of the first-rank Tang disciples possessed considerable strength. Even if they went all out, they could hold their own against top-tier experts in the martial world for a while. But against Kai Xin, they seemed utterly helpless. Killed in just two sword strikes—this was a sign of someone who had slain 4,500 enemies! How could someone who lost 20% of their strength after dying once still possess such formidable power? Moreover, Kai Xin’s attack and movement speeds were no slower than what they had seen in REP; in fact, they seemed even faster… This… made no sense. What was going on? In the blink of an eye, Kai Xin had taken down over a dozen lives in the crowd and injured more than twenty others. In contrast, their attacks failed to even shake Kai Xin’s body—he maintained his stance, his attacks uninterrupted… Unless his head was threatened, he would dodge. Faced with the attacks of the first-rank Tang disciples, he neither dodged nor hesitated, focusing solely on pursuing the wounded ones. In less than three minutes! Nearly half of the less than a hundred disciples in the First-Rank Tang branch had fallen. At Yao Shi Wan Wu, two more had been killed. The entire group was covered in blood, looking utterly miserable… On the high walls outside the First-Rank Tang branch, spectators had gathered at some point. Most of them had come to watch the spectacle and join in the excitement, and of course, there were also experts eyeing Kai Xin’s equipment. But upon seeing him rampage through the First-Rank Tang branch, those with ulterior motives immediately abandoned their plans. It was terrifying!

Attacked by over a dozen people, he didn’t even flinch… Two swift slashes with his sword could kill them… This seemed to be infinitely close to the defense and attack capabilities of theRoyal Tomb King in the royal tomb.
“Happy!”
Yao Shi Wan Neng suddenly shouted, “Stop playing around with them! Destroy the gang’s foundation stone right away!”
Happy became alert immediately, sensing a group of people with steady, synchronized steps rapidly approaching the sub-temple. Frowning, he used his two swords to push aside the First Rank Hall disciples trying to slow him down. With a quick step, his Golden Bell Body floated upward, defying the attacks of several people as he landed in front of the gang’s foundation stone in the sub-temple hall.
“Stop him quickly!”
“Attack together!! We can’t let him destroy the foundation stone!”
The First Rank Hall disciples valued their honor and dignity greatly. Especially in front of so many outsiders, having their gang’s foundation stone destroyed by just two people was like a slap in the face—making it impossible for them to stand tall in Hongwu City anymore.
Happy swung his sword!
With over 4,600 points of damage, the black foundation stone trembled slightly, with many tiny fragments falling off its surface…
Hah!!
Furious, the group of First Rank Hall disciples took to the air and rushed at Happy above the main temple, unleashing waves of sword lights and blade glints.
Happy paused his attack. With pride, he raised his head, facing over thirty First Rank Hall disciples, as brilliant tricolor sword lights erupted from his hands.
A circle of magnificent tricolor sword lights, driven by the power of Wind Spirit Spin, struck the group’s chests with force.
As for Happy, despite enduring attacks from the front row, his body remained steady—only his Golden Bell Body trembled slightly and dimmed.
With a flick of his hand, a second wave of sword lights shot out!
The thirty-plus people froze mid-air, spitting blood as they fell rapidly downward; many never got back up.
A fierce glint appeared in Happy’s eyes as he chased after them like a ghost, ready to finish them off with his sword and destroy the foundation stone once more…
“Stop!!”
A roar echoed as dozens of people rushed into the sub-temple through the main gate.
The members of the Assassin Hall, led by Tang Feng, had finally arrived!
