Chapter 648: Chapter 648 – Throwing Dart from the Crowd
Chapter 648: Throwing Dart from the Crowd
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The heroes, who came from everywhere, gathered outside the headquarters of Towering Palace’s headquarters like a swarm when they heard the sensational news that Happy had come .
In just a moment, the place was filled with people!
“That person is Happy? The strongest player in China?”
Quite a number of blond and green-eyed foreign players watched from the crowd with great curiosity .
The person who stood at the center of the empty spot outside the headquarters was young and not someone with an astonishing chest, waist, and hip size, nor did he have arms that were larger than an ape’s, which was completely against what they imagined . They could not help but be puzzled by that .
Quite a number of Chinese players felt smug in the crowd .
“Aside from him, who else would be able to make Towering Palace so nervous?”
They had stayed for a long time at the coastal area and knew just what sort of status and prestige Towering Palace enjoyed . It was quite likely that even if Class One Hall and Chivalry Sect’s leaders were here, they would not be able to cause such fear and make the people from Towering Palace so nervous .
“That person doesn’t seem like much . He doesn’t look special . ”
A girl who appeared to be around sixteen years old and looked like a Barbie doll stared at the young man standing on the empty ground with an expression that showed her refusal to believe that he was as strong as rumors had it .
“What’s the point of having so many people surround and watch him? Hmph,” she said to an old man with a white beard who stood next to her .
Her tone was adorable, and the people beside her smiled . No one thought that she was going overboard with her words because she was a girl .
The old man stroked his white beard and laughed heartily . “He’s already very impressive to have been able to reach this stage in less than one year . Right now, he’s the only one who has three out of four ultimate techniques which have reached Grandmaster Realm . ”
“Tsk, he’s just a little lucky! I’ll definitely be better than him in the future . ”

“Hehe, of course . You’ll definitely become better than him in the future, Young Ru . ” The old man stroked his beard and laughed again .
When the young girl heard the perfunctory tone of her grandfather, she snorted in a refusal to admit defeat and suddenly threw a dart .
When the people around her registered what she did, the black dart was only thirty-two feet away from Happy .
*****
Ever since Happy showed up and stated his identity, he stood at the entrance and sensed the grand mannerisms of Towering Palace along with the atmosphere that was different from his previous life .
It had to be said that Clear Music was a dark horse because she seized a good time . In Happy’s previous life, she had been nameless . But in the new one, she managed to rise up despite being stuck between Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, and Class One Hall . Even though most of it was due to luck, if she did not have some tricks up her sleeve, she would not have been able to do it .
She might also have a lot of capable hands under her to have been able to seize such a status at the coastal area and gather all the foreign organizations under her to become powerful sources of money for Towering Palace .
When Happy thought of that, the images of Loving Sword Hai Dongqing, Merciless Saber Shangguan Lian, and Vast Heaven, successor of Six Pulses Divine Sword, popped up in his mind .
He closed his eyes and used his mastered Nine Yang Divine Skill to sense everything around him .
Happy soon entered a very strange but clear state of mind .
Everyone’s breathing within a circular area of 328 feet turned into a pulse beat that rose and fell at a magnificent scale . Everyone’s actions and words were all clearly gathered and weaved together .
Wherever Happy’s attention went, the sounds and images in that direction became incredibly clear as if he was listening to them and watching them at a close distance! It was a very mysterious feeling .
At that moment, Happy suddenly noticed a group of people walking over quickly from Towering Palace’s headquarters .
Two of them were familiar faces .
One of them was Musical Note . He had met her once when they were about to kill Yao Hua at Fox Cave .
The other was Loving Sword Hai Dongqing . He followed behind Musical Note willingly . The trio had grave expressions on their faces, and they looked as if they were about to face a great enemy!

Happy could not help but let his lips curl up into a smile .
However, right when his thoughts were distracted for a moment, his ears twitched, and his spiritual senses caught a rather intense movement in the pulses . He also heard a shrill sound of air being torn .
A dart was coming at him from behind .
The instant Happy noticed it, he accurately pinpointed the trajectory of the dart . He also saw a teenage girl who had a mischievous look on her face and did not actually have any real killing intent in her .
He was slightly stunned .
His feet remained plastered to the ground, and he just moved his upper body slightly without batting an eyelid . A shrill and cold gust of wind grazed past his chest before it struck the ground near him .
Boom!
The crowd instantly burst into an uproar .
Someone tried to assassinate Happy at the entrance of Towering Palace’s entrance right before everyone’s eyes!
Countless martial artists in the area went into a commotion . They looked for the direction from which the hidden weapon came in hopes to discover something .
“Where did the dart come from?”
“Seems like the foundation is pretty good . It should be a high-tier hidden weapon technique!”
“Who would have the guts to ambush Happy at this moment? Don’t they know that Happy became famous with hidden weapons?”
Due to the sudden chaos, the people of Towering Palace became so anxious that they broke out in cold sweat .
After all, quite a number of people wondered whether the attack was from Towering Palace .
“Did they think that they could kill Happy because he came alone?”
“He was ambushed while standing at the entrance of Towering Palace’s headquarters . Tsk tsk, Towering Palace will not be able to reason themselves out of this situation now . ”
A group of Towering Palace members rushed out from the palace and surrounded Happy from the distance .
They also rushed to the direction from which the dart had come in a fearsome manner .
“Who is it?!”
“Who dared to throw that hidden weapon?!”
“None of you are allowed to leave! Don’t let her escape!”
The teenage girl had long since been pushed out by the people around her . All of them declared that they were innocent while they handed over the culprit . The white-bearded old man was so angry that he could only glare at his naughty granddaughter and huff . He felt enraged as well as resigned .
“My apologies, my granddaughter is young and mischievous . She has caused trouble to all of you . Please don’t blame her . ”
Clear Music had walked out of the headquarters moments before, and she was just in time to witness all that happened . She was also so shocked that she broke out in cold sweat .
“Seize her and let Happy deal with it!”
Her resolute words allowed Towering Palace to remove the suspicion off themselves and display her power and influence on her turf .
Happy cast a glance at the teenager who was stomping her feet repeatedly while struggling nonstop in two men’s arms, along with the old man who smiled apologetically while apologizing for his granddaughter .
“Don’t need to . These two should just be thinking about cracking a joke with me . Palace Master Music, please release them . If it weren’t for the fact that your members didn’t really understand how to receive guests and made me stand here for such a long time, such a thing would not have happened, don’t you agree?”
His voice was not loud, but it clearly entered the ears of all those in the area . Their eyes instantly lit up .
“As expected of the top ranked player on Famous People Rank . He is so magnanimous!”
“Towering Palace was indeed a little impolite . How could they make Happy stand outside for so long? Are they feeling guilty?”
Clear Music did not expect that Happy would regard the fact that he had just gone through an assassination attempt so lightly . When she noticed that the direction of the discussions before her door was changing, she quickly replied to him .
“I’m to be blamed for not being strict with my subordinates, thus resulting in their lack of courtesy . My apologies… Hurry up and release that girl . ”
“Thank you . ”
The white-bearded old man looked at them with a sincere gaze as the dart-throwing girl was freed from the clutches of the Towering Palace members . She quickly hugged her grandfather’s arm while looking like she was scared witless .
“Don’t be so naughty next time . ”
Happy smiled faintly . Then, under countless people’s gazes and with Clear Music’s personal invitation, he entered Towering Palace’s headquarters .
