Chapter 1089: 1089
Chapter 1089: With One Slash, The World Moves
In the Chinese server, if Dragon Saber and Heavenly Sword were a legend, then Heaven Crystal Sword was a legend among legends .
*****
The first time Heaven Crystal showed its might, it was at Shaolin Temple’s Punishment Mount .
To withstand Mad Monk’s tenth move, which had the power of those at One with the World Realm, Happy had resolutely crushed the sword casket which contained Heaven Crystal Sword, and the sword will which had laid dormant for a long time was swiftly released to completely crush the full-powered strike from Mad Monk at One with the World Realm . Even Mad Monk’s expression had changed because of it, and he had to fulfill his promise to hand over Shaolin Temple’s supreme classic, Tendon Changing Classic to a non-Shaolin Temple disciple .
It was at Punishment Mount that Happy understood the true power of the sword will from Heaven Crystal Sword . He also understood the power in Heaven Crystal Sword, which was its ability to pierce through the heavens and earth . The sword spirit contained within had only been released for an instant, and it already released a power that could nearly destroy the world . It was, indeed, a terrifying sword .
At that time, Happy already had a vague feeling that the power Heaven Crystal instantly released was so strong that it could withstand a hit from a martial artist who was One with the World . If he could use it one day at will, then he might have no one who could fight against him no matter how big the world was .
Of course, all of it was just wishful thinking .
In Legend of Emperors, the curse brought by Heaven Crystal Sword was not something a normal person could withstand . The ruthless sword will and brutality that filled Heaven Crystal Sword caused no one to be able to use and possess it for a long time . Even Mad Monk had lamented the fact that this divine ancient sword was no longer a pure sword . It was just like Evil King Shi Zhixuan, and the sword spirit in it had split into two, with both possessing completely different personalities . One of them was pure and gentle, and the other was ruthless and fierce . The former only injured enemies, while the latter injured enemies as well as the wielder . The latter could not be controlled .
However, after Heaven Crystal Sword was nourished by Heavenly Lake, it had its ruthless side temporarily suppressed, and Happy obtained the chance to use it for a short moment .
However, Happy’s strength had long since surpassed countless players on this side . In fact, even Evil King, who was at the peak of Myth Realm, could not suppress him . Hence, on the day of the wedding, Happy gave the nourished Heaven Crystal Sword to the person he trusted the most—Young Yu Yan, who was also the current clan lady of Mu Clan .
*****
During that critical moment, Young Yu Yan finally remembered Heaven Crystal Sword .
This sword had always been treated as a trump card that she would only use during the most dangerous moments in a fight . When Shi Feixuan was about to be killed by Evil King, she finally used the card .
Heaven Crystal Sword shone in the world .
The great sword wills formed a light pillar that stirred the winds, clouds, and the spiritual energy in the world .
Boom!
Evil King’s movements were frozen, and he was flung fiercely away .
In the span of a breath, Evil King’s body was enveloped by a powerful, mighty pressure . Then, his body looked as if it was pierced through by countless fierce sword qis .

Even though the flames around him had negated most of the damage, the piercing sword will still managed to pierce through Evil King without facing any obstructions .
This was a pure attack to the mind .
The evil in Evil King’s eyes was instantly crushed .
Thud!
At the same time his body fell limp, he coughed up a mouthful of blood violently on the ground, and multiple thin and long wounds were left on his body .
His clothes were in tatters .
Evil King looked incredibly pathetic right now .
He was not just drenched in blood, the ferocity and imposing presence he possessed just now was also gone . His face was pale, and with an unfocused gaze, he stared at Young Yu Yan while she stood in front of Shi Feixuan with the sword held horizontally in front of her .
He could not believe it!
The young woman he had been underestimating up to this moment actually had Heaven Crystal Sword, an item that defied the heavens!
He reached out and flung his dishevelled hair behind his shoulder before he heaved a sigh in dejection . “The divine sword, Heaven Crystal Sword, has been destroyed since many years ago . I didn’t think that I would be lucky enough to see it shine once more . Oh well…”
Once he finished speaking, he turned his head around and cast a glance at Happy, who had already landed beside Young Yu Yan and Shi Feixuan . Then, with reluctance, he was forced to turn around and leave .
Even though he could tell that the mysterious girl’s strength was still not great enough for her to control Heaven Crystal, he was already internally injured because he forcefully used the evil within him to activate the incomplete Dao Heart Demonic Seed . When Heaven Crystal Sword cut him, he was injured even further, and he was in great danger . There was no way he would be Happy’s opponent .
If he did not leave now, he had to face the danger of being killed!
Whoosh!
Evil King was determined to leave, so he turned around and fled .
Even though he staggered a little when he moved, he was incredibly fast . With just a few jumps, he vanished into the distance .
*****
When Evil King left, Happy grabbed Young Yu Yan, who was swaying on her feet, and he felt his heart ache for her . “Are you okay?”
She shook her head, and she could not help but moan . Heaven Crystal Sword fell on the ground .
Happy quickly grabbed Heaven Crystal Sword in his hands .
A ruthless sword will quickly came cutting at him from the part where his palm touched the sword . The great pain cut deep into his bones from the skin, as if both parts were attacked at the same time .
Just as Happy expected, after that one attack, Heaven Crystal Sword regained its former brutality, and it was continuously invading and damaging Young Yu Yan’s body .
He did not remain idle . Happy quickly brought out a jade casket from his Universe Bag to suppress Heaven Crystal . Then, he put it back into his Universe Bag .
After she took a medicinal pill, Young Yu Yan’s facial color finally regained a red tint, and her face became pleasant to the eye once more .
Once Evil King left, the mighty pressure that enveloped Shi Feixuan vanished at the same time . She struggled to get up from the ground so that she could sit down cross-legged . A light, snow-white veil covered her face at some unknown point of time .
“Thank you for saving me, Sir Happy . ”
“Miss Shi, you thanked the wrong person . It’s this lady who saved you . I didn’t do anything . ” Happy knew that the NPCs in the game would not care whether the players were wife and husband . He quickly withdrew himself from the situation, because he did not want to take his wife’s quest rewards .

“I will definitely not forget Miss Yu Yan saving me . I will thank her on another day . ”
“Miss Shi, you praise me too much . ”
Young Yu Yan might be injured, but she had no problem in speaking . She nodded . Then, she received a system notification telling her that she finished the quest .
At this moment, Shi Feixuan brought out that white stone plate in her bosom under Happy and Young Yu Yan’s gaze .
“This is an ultimate technique left behind by Dafo Temple’s divine monk . There are four of them, and each one should have a part of the divine monk’s legacy . ”
Happy and Young Yu Yan said nothing .
“This time, if it were not for Miss Shi protecting me with her life, I cannot guarantee that I would have protected the divine monk’s legacy, and Evil King will definitely snatch it away . ”
Shi Feixuan seemed to have her heart touched once she escaped from death this time . With a calm expression, she handed Young Yu Yan the stone plate . “Right now, I am injured . It’s not convenient for me to bring it back to Kind Boathouse . Besides, I have nothing valuable with me to protect it . If you don’t mind, please help me protect it . If you can understand the divine monk’s legacy from it, you can also consider yourself to be fated with Buddha . ”
Young Yu Yan’s expression was filled with shock and surprise . “That won’t do . This is something you have been protecting all this while, Miss Feixuan . ”
“I will definitely be chased down by the evil cult because of my injuries, and it’s not convenient for me to bring them around . Instead of having them be snatched away by the evil cult, it would be better if I handed them to you, Miss Yu Yan . Besides, I’ve suddenly gained some epiphanies after I escaped death this time . I don’t intend to immediately return to Kind Boathouse, and I want to search for a quiet place to see whether I can understand the next realm for Clear Sword . ”
‘I knew it!’
Even though Happy managed to remain calm on the surface, his emotions had started surging in his heart . In the end, Shi Feixuan had indeed handed over the stone plate as a reward to Yu Yan .
Because of it, Happy and Young Yu Yan each had a stone plate left behind by the divine monk .
“This is great!” Happy quietly and discreetly congratulated Young Yu Yan through a private message .
Young Yu Yan also calmed down at that moment and received the stone plate .
Ever since Happy told her about the power in Full Winds in Long Skies, she had been very curious . Right now, when she held the tablet in her hands, it was only natural that she was loath to part with it .
“Now, you have two more ultimate techniques . Even if you’re going to spend less time here, no one can surpass you within three years . ”
When he heard Young Yu Yan’s words, Happy was stunned before he smiled . “No . The person who will learn it is not me, but you . ”
“I don’t want it . ”
“I saw the contents in the stone plate . The system didn’t change any settings . I still got Full Winds in Long Skies for the first stone plate . With this move, forget three years, I won’t have any problems running wild in the game for the next five years . As for you, you need to continue holding Heaven Crystal Sword to help me protect Mu Clan . You’re going to be the one understanding this ultimate technique . I will tell you how to do it . Next time, I need someone who can stand as equals with me from Mu Clan in the Chinese server . If that person is you, I will be at ease . ”
Happy continued speaking sincerely . “By the looks of it now, the effects are pretty good . Your feat of severely injuring Evil King with just one slash will soon spread out . At that time, I want you gradually move away from the status of Mu Clan’s clan lady to the best swordswoman in the Chinese server . ”
When she heard Happy’s words, Young Yu Yan was stunned for a long time, but she did not reject this . She just nodded . “I promise you! But I also want you to promise me something . ”
“Go on . ” Happy smiled .
“Don’t give up on this place so easily…” Young Yu Yan said seriously .
Happy could not help but laugh . “Silly girl . Are you trying to make arrangements for my funeral or something? I only wish that I can be together with you and that our people in Mu Clan can always secure our place as the strongest, and that our position won’t be shaken . Alright, I promise you . ”
When he said his last sentence, Young Yu Yan released a small breath .
The scene of the two hugging out of the blue was incredibly warm and touching .
The elites from Mu Clan, Chivalry Sect, Wind Assault Tower, as well as Wind and Rain Alliance rushed over from everywhere but stopped in the distance to watch . They just smiled and did not say anything, because they could not find it within themselves to interrupt this couple who were immersed in their tender emotions .
However, quite a number of people talked about the scene they saw just now in their own groups .
It was the powerful sword pillar that no one could hope to block and which had appeared in the form of a light pillar .
Even Evil King had been severely injured by it with just one slash and had to immediately flee from it . This already brought about great shock to the people .
They would not be so shocked if Happy had been the one who forced Evil King away . After all, Happy had already secured the position of the strongest player in the world a few months ago . He had been practicing hard for a few months and never egressed from prison, which caused many people to guess whether Happy had been practicing an even more powerful martial art .
But the person who forced Evil King back was Young Yu Yan, who had remained nameless before the wedding . Right now, she was the clan lady of Mu Clan, a woman who had appeared out of nowhere and instantly became the focus of the entire world . She was rumored to be Happy’s real life girlfriend, and she was a normal female student in the University of South China .
The entire Chinese server’s thoughts toward the clan lady was very normal—she was just Happy’s girlfriend .
But now, from this moment on, they believed that the people in the entire world would know that the clan lady of Mu Clan, Young Yu Yan had severely wounded Evil King Shi Zhixuan with just one slash and forced away a peerless martial artist who was at the peak of Myth Realm!

Tales From the Terran Republic
We tried, you know… We really did. We tried so hard to be… better… We actually were better once. No, seriously. We were enlightened, generous, peaceful… Stop laughing! We were! We were peaceful, dammit! No, I’m not “tugging your winglets.” It’s true! Look, if you’re going to be like that, I’ll just push the launch button right now. See ya, don’t wanna be… Oh, you ARE interested after all? Ok. Hey, I just got word that your captain will be ok. We were able to get him into a med pod quick enough… Of course, we tried to save him. Just what sort of people do you think we are?... Now that was harsh… completely accurate, mind you… but harsh. Anyway, like I was saying, we were a prosperous, peaceful people, and war had been nothing but a distant memory for over five hundred years before it happened... Before Yellowstone happened! You don’t mean to tell me that you didn’t know about that… massive supervolcano? Blew the Hell out of our planet? Two years where nothing grew?… Anyway, that’s what started it, the Sol Wars… Oh, you have heard about those, huh? Well, needless to say, all that enlightened, generous, and peaceful didn’t exactly make it through the two years of complete famine and the wars that followed… Maybe it’s more accurate to say the enlightened, generous, and peaceful among us didn’t survive… (laughs)… You’re right. It does explain a lot, doesn’t it? Probably for the best, though. “Enlightened” and “peaceful” aren’t really all that useful out here in the galaxy at large, are they? That reminds me; thanks for the ship. You guys did a great job with this one. Oh, don’t be like that. At least it was us what got you and not one of the really messed groups like the Harlequin or the Black Angels. We’re just going to take your shit. It could be worse… trust me... Well, anyway, we loaded the life pods down with some good food, and you guys can drink alcohol, right? We put in a couple of fifths in there, too. It’s about forty percent ethanol, so be warned. Most species will want to dilute that. We’ll drop your wounded off somewhere safe once they are stable. Your fleet patrols this area fairly regularly, and we’ll drop the distress beacon right before we jump… Well, It’s been fun and no hard feelings, right?… Oh, you want to know some more? Sure. I got time to kill… Let me tell you about this one pirate and her crew. They’re Terran scum, but they are still… Why do we hate the Terrans? Hoo Boy… How much time you got? *** It’s the thirty-second century, and humanity is now part of a galactic civilization comprised of hundreds of worlds. Humanity has been savaged by natural disaster and war and has been fractured into several separate populations, all of which loathe each other (some things never change). This is a gritty drama-driven rambling tale that swings between action, drama, horror, and plenty of very, very dark comedy. Warning: contains adult situations, absolutely horrible language, bathroom humor, implied ultra-violence, actual ultra-violence, drugs, alcohol, pirates, mercs, xeno prostitutes, moral ambiguity, deranged AI's with identity issues, giant commie space slugs, and a poor little frog girl who just wants to sell coffee. Updates twice weekly on Tuesday and Friday. *** Note: This story can get rough. Those warning tags? They aren't for show. I recently received a review and as a result I want to make one thing clear. Portraying something is NOT endorsing it! Many "heavy" topics are touched upon and just because a character says or does something does not imply that the author feels the same way. I selected the "Anti-Hero Lead" and "Villainous Lead" tags for a reason. Rule number one of this story is "no good guys". A good description of the story is, "bad people doing bad things to worse people". There are a few good characters, here and there, but they are the exception to the rule. If you want a hard-hitting, exciting, gritty sci-fi story that doesn't pull any punches, or shies away from "difficult" concepts, welcome! If you are set on a pure and noble knight that runs around and slays conveniently evil monsters and rescues totally innocent princesses... or your sensibilities are easily offended... You're not going to be happy with this one.

The Errant Otherworlder Watanabe
“In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and trucks whom transport men to other worlds.” Meet our titular protagonist Haruto Watanabe, a man who has all the markings of a good protagonist for a generic portal fantasy story. As an overworked office worker, to escape from the grips of crippling capitalist alienation, he had taken up to reading many stories where young men like him were transported to other worlds and enjoyed their lives at a most leisurely pace. Armed with genre-awareness and (what he believes to be) a marketable personality which would make him an easy audience self-insert, he longed for the day the isekai express would take him to his long-awaited adventure to another world. When the fateful day came, where the fair yet harsh mistress that is the fabled truck took Watanabe on one last date to the other side, he was most ready to escape his previous life, ready to embark on an errant so great he’d be most overpowered, his heroics so exceptional and his harem so vast that they would barely fit ten or twenty volumes of an overly long novel made by a desperate author looking for quick cash. Lo and behold however, Watanabe instead found himself in a low fantasy world which lacked severely in the department of any game-like systems, cheat skills or easily charmed damsels in distress. In a setting so antithetical to his established genre savviness or any attempts at power fantasy, how will a man like Watanabe, lacking in strength, wits and courage, manage to survive in a land most foreign to him? This is my first time trying to share to the wider world what I’ve written, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading the errantry of Watanabe as much as I enjoy writing about them. I'll be posting one chapter per week on Sundays, along with extra chapters whenever I get the chance to write more than usual.
