“Perfect timing!”

Happy could only wish for Blood Robes to take the initiative to ask him for a fight. Once it happened, he turned around and delivered a punch. He did not avoid the palm-generated wind Blood Robes had delivered proudly.

“Be careful of his Star Sucking Great Skill!”

Wandering Know-it-all could not be considered a true martial artist. He did not have great sight that could let him see very quickly. When he saw that Happy had actually decided to not use any weapon and went up against his enemy with just his palms, he panicked and quickly said a reminder.

Wandering Know-it-all would not be able to predict, even if he made calculations, that Happy actually had a close relationship with Blood Robes for two years and knew Blood Robes’ Star Sucking Great Skill very clearly. That meant that he was not stupid enough to fight against him in close-quarters combat.

Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm was incredibly amazing!

Wherever its palm-generated wind went, a dragon-shaped vortex would surround it closely. As long as Happy thought about how he wanted to fight, he did not have to fear Blood Robes.

Bang!

With one hit, not only did their palms not touch each other, Blood Robes was forced back a few steps, and his eyes sparkled.

“What a powerful palm technique.”

When they exchanged blows, he could clearly sense a powerful force weaken the power of his palm strike, and at the same time, it increased his opponent’s strength.

The damage from his palm-generated wind was actually above his opponent’s, but that increase and decrease turned their damage identical. The effect of Star Sucking Great Skill was not just interrupted by the air that wrapped itself tightly around the man’s arm, it also suffered a little setback because it had crashed against the dragon-shaped vortex.

“It’s no wonder you’re so conceited! But if you only have this amount of strength, it won’t be…”

Blood Robes snorted coldly, but before he could mutter his final word—enough—he heard a suppressed dragon roar charging through the air. Then, he noticed a force that was much stronger than before rising from his opponent’s body.

He was astonished, but he did not dare to be negligent. He activated all four of his qi realms in one go, and a powerful suction force surged up his arm.

Even though he was shocked by the increasing strength and power within his enemy, Blood Robes did not fear this sort of head-on clash of pure power.

The stronger his enemy was, the more excited Blood Robes became!

Star Sucking Great Skill was unique in the sense that it could weaken its enemies’ qi and fill up its user’s qi. While watching his enemy become weaker and more miserable in front of him, Blood Robes would have even more room to execute and display his abilities.

However…

Bang!

Even when he swung his palm, he did not manage to grab his opponent’s arm.

A mighty power crashed fiercely into him.

Even though Star Sucking Great Skill could weaken and absorb the opponent’s strength through the air, the man had actually charged at him vigorously. The inertia from the powerful force made him tremble because of the crash, and since he could not maintain his footing, he took a few steps back.

“Again!”

He let out a furious roar, and a palm-generated gust of wind and dragon roar reached his ears with an even more astonishing momentum than before!

The dragon-shaped vortex that was less than two feet thick was now larger than before. It drew out a faint yellow glare in the air and a piercing howl before it crashed violently against Blood Robes, who was retreating.

Blood Robes continued to use his Star Sucking Great Skill to absorb and withstand the powerful force from the air with gritted teeth. But the force and the impact from the dragon-shaped vortex were too much. He just continued losing.

‘Damn it! I’d like to see just how many times you can attack! I’ll suck you dry!’

When Blood Robes saw the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe get closer to him while attacking with a matchless momentum that suppressed him to the point that he could only passively absorb his qi, Blood Robes was so aggravated that he gritted his teeth in exasperation. But he did not have a way to handle the situation. His opponent’s martial art was incredibly domineering.

The third punch, fourth punch…

Even though some of Happy’s qi was weakened, Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm could counter Star Sucking Great Skill to a certain degree, so the loss was not great. It did not affect Happy’s offense at all.

On the contrary, his momentum just continued increasing as he attacked!

Happy discovered to his surprise that his damage increased to the point that he was now equivalent to someone with a fourth-echelon Golden Glove.

He also had a much smoother and easier time compared to when he fought against Master of Breaking Vows, because Blood Robes could not fight back at all!

Suddenly, Happy thought of holding back a little.

He did not want to increase his strength too quickly and display all his strength to defeat Blood Robes, which was why he subconsciously held back a little with every attack, even though he still retained his mighty offense and speed to ensure that he could force Blood Robes back.

Bang!

Thud, thud, thud.

To the others, Blood Robes seemed to be completely suppressed.

He did not have any way of fighting back. At the seventh punch, he already staggered to the edge of the yard!

“Get lost!”

Blood Robes was finally unable to handle the barrage. He tapped against the wall, and with a momentum that was greater by nearly one quarter of his previous momentum, he jumped into the air, and a fist-generated wind that was nearly at Moksha Realm shot out. He intended to use the rebound from the wall to save himself from his losing streak.

‘It’s here!’

The eyes of Langye and the others lit up.

In truth, they had already noticed that Blood Robes was not at such a great disadvantage based on his steady retreat. Star Sucking Great Skill was probably accumulating strength in the dark while it weakened the strength of the mysterious man in the yellow brocade robe.

Right then, when they saw Blood Robes charge out like a cannonball, they immediately knew that his counterattack had started!

But just when Blood Robes’ strength increased by leaps and bounds, Happy erupted with an even more astonishing momentum!

“ROAR!”

A huge vortex quietly swept up an innumerable amount of dirt and fallen leaves in the yard. It dragged along the dust on the ground and swept up countless sturdy tiles. With a shrill and mighty dragon’s roar, a dragon head that was three feet thick and made of a mixture of dust, ashes, fallen leaves, tiles, and other stuff appeared around Happy’s palm in a manner that stunned the people’s hearts. He formed his fingers into the shape of a claw, and the dragon head let out a furious roar that tore at the hearts. It went charging at Blood Robes, and after a single swipe, he crashed into the middle of the yard like a comet. A huge pit was formed on the ground.

Bang!

Countless shattered tiles fell all over the ground, creating a mess!

The crowd was stunned silent.

When they saw Blood Robes stand up pathetically from the ground, Langye and Wandering Know-it-all sucked in sharp breaths at the same time.

They did not have time to call out to Happy to stop, because Happy had already attacked again, not giving Blood Robes any chance to regain his footing.

Ninth attack!

Bang!

It was only then that Blood Robes finally noticed that the strength he had been accumulating for the counterattack was something that his opponent had been waiting for for a long time. His expression instantly turned pale, but his gaze grew fierce.

“Reverse Stars!”

It was one of the great profound skills of Star Sucking Great Skill. It could instantly turn his enemy upside down and make him topple over. Even though it would use up a lot of his qi, Blood Robes could no longer care about it.

Happy had long since noticed that Blood Robes was about to do that when he took his starting stance, and he had been secretly on guard. He shut his eyes and entered the state of using his qi to guide his senses. He was ready for his counterattack.

But what he did not expect was that his body would tremble, and at the instant he was turned upside down, a picture naturally appeared in his mind!

While he felt nauseous, a huge dragon let out a roar that could tear through the clouds. Its huge body twisted about recklessly, and it brought with it circles of great power that caused the weather to change.

Within those circles of power were techniques Happy had practiced countless times but whose true might he had never managed to bring out. Right then, however, he was able to naturally execute them.

It was as if a great dragon that moved about the earth had suddenly stretched out its body!
