Chapter 558: The Strength of the Mu Family

The invasion by the demonic sects is far more dangerous than imagined!
The Heroic Villa has already been breached by thousands of demonic sect disciples, all at least at the Liberation Realm level, and each of them is highly skilled. Even experts like thebeggar gang elders struggle greatly when fighting one against two, which shows just how strong these demonic sect disciples are.
Demonic sect disciples at the Wuwei Realm are already on par with top martial artists from the righteous sects. Though not as powerful as sect leaders, they are very close to that level. Zhang Wuji was trapped by three skilled demonic sect fighters, while Yang Xiao and others were engaged in combat with a group of them, blocking all escape routes…
As for the members of the eight great families, aside from the old woman from the Nangong family, whose strength rivals that of a sect leader, the rest are not very strong. The path to escape seems increasingly blocked by more and more demonic sect members. Lu Mingyue, Meng Yun, and the others are extremely anxious, but the skilled fighters around them far exceed their expectations. It’s the first time they’ve seen so many experts at the Liberation Realm and Wuwei Realm gathered together, so none of them dare act rashly.
“Fengling!”
Kai Xin’s expression turned grave as he rushed up from the back of the group: “Sound Kill!”
“Oh, okay.”
Fengling was still stunned by the strength of the NPCs and, without any system prompts, didn’t dare act rashly. But with Kai Xin’s reminder, she finally snapped out of it and quickly took out the six-string demon zither from the huge sword case—this zither had originally been seized from the Ruyang Royal Mansion.
“Clang!” “Clang clang clang!”
After entering the Life and Death Realm, Fengling’s control over Sound Kill as well as its offensive power improved significantly. Holding the six-string demon zither in one hand and plucking the strings with the other, she used unique techniques to produce resounding and intense musical notes, like the sounds of weapons and horses on the battlefield!
Protected by Kai Xin and the others, Fengling flew swiftly across the rooftops, her musical notes transforming into countless sound blades of varying sizes that rained down on the crowd like hail, incessantly.
Ahhhh!
The demonic sect disciples fighting against the Mingjiao experts suddenly heard disorienting music, causing them to freeze in place and fall into a highly disadvantageous situation. Zhang Wuji seized the opportunity to deal heavy blows to several of them.
The others also quickly defeated their opponents, turning the tide of battle!
Seeing that Sound Kill was effective against experts, Fengling didn’t stop using it. With a calm gaze, she kept plucking the strings back and forth with one hand, using unique techniques and internal energy to create invisible ripples on the strings.
Boom boom boom!!

Suddenly attacked by countless sound blades that bypassed defenses, the large group of demons’ sect disciples behind were cut down like straw, in the Liberation Realm with almost no ability to resist. Even those in the Non-Action Realm found it extremely difficult to approach due to the relentless waves of deadly sound blades.

A group of players under the protection of the Ming Sect and the eight great families were shocked to see such powerful attacks from people like Happy as they closed in.

“What are you standing around for? Those who want to live, charge forward!” Happy glanced coldly but ignored the group of experts with complex expressions, rushing straight to the front line where Zhang Wuji and the others were, joining the breakout effort.

“Leader Zhang, I never thought we’d have a chance to fight side by side!”

“Youth Happy, you really shone among our sect disciples this time. There will be more opportunities in the future!”

“Thank you for the kind words.” After a pause, Happy’s tone changed: “There are quite a few experts among these demons’ sect disciples. How about the two of us take care of them, while the rest can be left to my friend!” As he spoke, Zhang Wuji had an idea and quickly glanced at the prominent descendant of the Qin Demon, “Wind Bell,” saying, “Your friend is also quite strong… Good! Let’s do as you say!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Happy suddenly heightened his aura, rising to a higher realm. With a roar like an angry dragon, he charged into the crowd—like a dragon diving into the sea!

The NPCs in the Liberation Realm found it hard to break through Happy’s defenses, and with Zhang Wuji protecting him and Wind Bell assisting from above, Happy didn’t have to worry about his own safety. A dragon-shaped vortex rapidly grew on his arms, and in the blink of an eye, it reached the lethality of the Non-Action Realm.

No longer restrained by his concerns for the Beggar Sect, Happy could go all out!

With a single punch, several demons’ sect disciples in the Liberation Realm were struck as if by a tremendous force, flying backward, spitting blood… The wide streets instantly became a chaos of overturned people and horses!

“So satisfying!”

Zhang Wuji possessed the Nine Yang Divine Skill and the Great Heaven and Earth Shift, but in terms of group combat, his skills were clearly not as fierce as Happy’s Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. Seeing Happy leading the charge with unstoppable momentum, he too felt inspired, laughed loudly, and followed behind to deal with any remaining enemies.

The two cleared the remnants in the streets, while the Ming Sect experts protected Wind Bell from the rooftops, coordinating seamlessly as the entire group rushed toward the eastern city gate at full speed.

The other experts watched with envy and longing.

But neither the wind chime’s killing power nor Happy’s “Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms” could be replicated. Even Ye Yu Suifeng, who already possessed the “Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms,” had only recently inherited it; its power was incomparable, and it lacked both equipment and advanced techniques. Watching from behind, they felt excited, thinking they too could become invincible like this in the future!
As for Meng Yun and the others…
Seeing the overwhelming strength displayed by Happy, Wind Chime, and the rest, they had mixed feelings. Upon realizing that Happy might win first place in this martial arts tournament and thus obtain a divine weapon, greatly enhancing his strength, their feelings turned even worse, their expressions grim…
Just then!
Boom!!!!
Suddenly, a house beside the street ahead exploded with a loud noise. “Where did you come from, kid? Get back there!” With a stern roar, a burly man with tanned skin rushed at Happy like lightning, his fingers like steel as he grabbed at Happy’s head.
His speed was terrifying, and his momentum was no less than that of the masters of the major sects!
Meng Yun, Xue Yi, and the others’ eyes lit up:
Hmph!
Kid, you’re too arrogant! Now you’ve met your match!!
Unexpectedly, despite being suddenly attacked, Happy remained calm. Sensing the astonishing pressure and threat from his opponent, his eyes sharpened, and an extremely fierce aura surged from him: “Get away from me!!!”
With a roar, a huge golden dragon instantly formed behind Happy—dragon fighting in the wild!
Roar!!!!
The dragon’s roar was louder and more astonishing than ever before. Under the gazes of many, Happy formed a blade with one hand and fought back with a strength on par with that of the masters of the demonic sects!
Boom!!!!
Both of them were sent flying backward by the immense force from the opponent’s hand. Happy was lucky enough to be caught by Zhang Wuji’s “Great Heaven and Earth Shift” and land safely, while the master of the demonic sect crashed into a nearby house like a cannonball!
Seeing Happy unharmed and displaying such incredible power, Meng Yun and the others, who had come to watch a joke, felt as if they had swallowed a dead fly.
