Chapter 692: Chapter 692 – Li Shiming, Xu Zhiling
Chapter 692: Li Shiming, Xu Zhiling
Before Happy could enter the large pleasure boat, the second wave of attacks came at him in an aggressive manner, and it made him even more certain that there was something strange about the pleasure boat . The quest had not ended yet .
Shifting Stars!
When he faced the second wave of evil cult elites who came to attack him, Happy was no longer as relaxed as when he faced the elites from the righteous path . He used Shifting Stars straight away, and the two sword waves crashed violently into each other in the sky .
Thud!
Bloody flowers bloomed on the bodies of the two evil cultists at the same time . They grunted and fell near the large pleasure boat .
When the sounds of water splashing rose, Happy stepped on the deck of the pleasure boat .
“How dare you, you maniac! How dare you enter Artisan Shi’s boat? Don’t you think you’re disregarding the heroes of the world too much?”
The evil cult and righteous path elites surged forward . They drew their weapons and pointed them at Happy .
Despite facing all of them, Happy smiled faintly and said calmly, “You speak too seriously . I am Happy of the Murong Clan, and I have come because I admire Artisan Shi a lot . Why don’t you allow me to fulfill my wish and let me go inside to watch her performance?”
If he had to face such a lineup of Inaction Realm martial artists in the past, he would have definitely ran to escape, but now, with Shifting Stars and his Arhat Body with Silver Light Arhat, which was the tenth realm, Happy had the power to protect himself even against Myth Realm martial artists .
At that moment, he had no fear .
“I don’t care that you’re a damned disciple of the Murong Clan! Get lost, or die here!”
The two drenched evil cult elders returned to the deck with their shoulders bleeding, and they looked incredibly pathetic . When they saw Happy, they gnashed their teeth so hard that they looked like they wanted to bite him .
“This is Artisan Shi’s boat . Since when have evil cultists like you have the right to make the decisions in a situations like this?!”

A group of people walked out with a majestic gait from behind the crowd .
Most from the group were generals dressed in armor . The person in the lead was a young man, and he was dressed in nice clothes, had an imposing air about him, and his black cloak displayed his elegance .
When he spoke, a sincere, charming, and cordial smile was on his handsome face . He wrapped his fist in his palm and walked over . “You’re the famous disciple of the aristocratic clan, Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero . I, Shimin, have heard of your name for a long time . ”
“I see, you’re the young master of the Li Family . I’ve heard of your name for a long time as well . ”
Happy did not have any sort of aversion or liking for Li Shimin, but he was indeed very good when it came to treating people, or else, it would have been impossible for him to gather a group of brave warriors and strategists for Heaven’s Scheme Mansion .
When Happy cast a glance at the warriors and strategists behind Li Shimin, his heart trembled .
There were quite a few presences there that were already at the peak of Inaction Realm . The last one, an old man who looked a little like a butler, gave Happy quite a lot of pressure .
‘Li Shimin, what a man . ’
Happy was shocked . The system had indeed strengthened the protection toward Li Shimin in such a complicated environment with so many complex characters . The original story never mentioned that Li Shimin had such a powerful butler protecting him .
Li Shimin naturally did not know what Happy was thinking about . He walked over in a great show of hospitality .
“During the battle at Hero’s Mountain Villa, the soldiers of the imperial court were denied entrance, but I heard that you managed to defeat the abbot of Shaolin Temple with a clever strategy even though you are still so young, and you fought against many of the top elites from various sects head-on .
“You also gained the title of the strongest hero of the young generation . I am filled with admiration toward you, and I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time . Now that I saw you today, you do live up to your name . ”
Li Shimin had personally witnessed the entire process of Happy getting on the boat in a relaxed manner, and he naturally knew that there would only be a few among his warriors who could fight against Happy .

If he could draw such a young and outstanding hero to his own camp, it would be incredibly advantageous for him!
“Young Master Li, you praise me too much . I am just a normal disciple from the Murong Clan, and I do not deserve praise . ”
“You’re too humble!” Li Shimin’s smile did not fade . “If you don’t mind, please come in with me, and I will introduce you to Artisan Shi . ”
“I would love to!”
Even though Happy did not want to be involved with Li Shimin too much, when he heard him mention Artisan Shi, he was instantly tempted, and he wrapped his fist in his palm to agree to it .
Li Shimin immediately pulled Happy into the front hall of the pleasure boat with great enthusiasm .
Due to the commotion outside, the feast in the boat seemed to have come to a brief halt .
When Li Shimin brought Happy into the front hall, more than one hundred gazes filled with various emotions gathered on his face .
There were some who were shocked, some who were puzzled, some were delighted and gratified, some surprised and bewildered, and there were also some who were contemplative .
Most of those who were shocked were amazed by the display of Happy’s strength .
They knew very clearly that a lot of qi was required to fly over the river, along with a great understanding of body movement and lightness skills .
At the very least, the power of those at the peak of Inaction Realm was required to break through the encirclement of the elites guarding the pleasure boats .
But Happy, a normal teenager, had easily cleared the guards situated in two boats, so it was no wonder why Li Shimin had rushed out of the hall to welcome him .
“Murong Clan’s Gusu’s Blue-robed Hero, I’ve heard of your name for a long time . ”
Quite a number of imperial court and righteous path elites greeted Happy from their seats .
Happy got completely immersed in his character, and he calmly responded to their greetings . His actions were appropriate, and he showed neither arrogance nor humility, which made the yes of the people in the hall to light up .
The players who had been brought by their seniors felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles .
To normal martial artists, Happy was only a very famous Murong Clan disciple and a young outstanding hero of the current generation, but to the players, he was a competitor .
More importantly though, Happy was not just the widely accepted strongest player in the game, but also the only player who had reached Moksha Realm . If that wasn’t enough, he was also one of the leaders of the strongest player sect, Mu Clan .
Happy’s arrival put great pressure on them, and he became a large variable in their quests .
“Come, Happy, allow me to introduce you to another young and outstanding hero in the world of martial artists, Xu Zhiling!
“Zhiling!”
Li Shimin cordially walked in front of Happy and let him in front of a man in green robes . He looked rather gentle and bashful, but there was a clear heroic presence shining in his eyes . When he heard his name being mentioned, he stood up stiffly .
“I am Xu Zhiling . I’ve heard of your name for a long time . ”
“I have also heard of your names for a long time, Brother Zhiling, Brother Kuo Zhong . Today, it is an honor for me to be able to meet you . ”
Happy’s sincere tone and earnest actions shocked Li Shimin slightly .
Xu Zhiling’s face turned red . “You praise me too much . ”
“Since you’ve struck such a cord with each other, why don’t I move some seats over here so that we can drink together at one table?” Li Shimin suggested .
“I’ll show my respect by accepting your offer . ”
Naturally, it was a wish come true for Happy .
If he could speak to Xu Zhiling, he might have the chance to see Shi Qingxuan’s real face, and it was exactly what Happy wanted .
However, a man who had been standing cautiously behind Xu Zhiling smiled in anguish when he heard Happy’s reply and found Xu Zhiling agreeing to the suggestion .
But something even more tragic followed immediately after . When Xu Zhiling and Li Shimin ordered him, he had to put on a bold front and run off to bring the seats over .
