Chapter 1126: Cannot Inherit, A Prize

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Boss Happy, I… I’d like to join Lovely Land!”

Once Little North said this in the feast, he suddenly felt the area around him fall silent. He gulped, and he immediately felt countless gazes trained on him. The courage that had risen in him because of the wine vanished without a trace.

However, Happy’s subsequent reply caused him to forget about all the gazes around him and his nervousness.

“You want to join Lovely Land? Sure, welcome aboard.”

The feast was now drop-dead silent.

The people around them were once again rendered silent. Their gazes on Little North were now filled with envy, jealousy, and hate!

They originally thought that Happy would at least come up with a whole spiel of upholding justice or give the boy a warning. They did not expect that he would agree to it so easily. Besides, the boy might be the first member who joined Lovely Land through Happy.

‘He’s so lucky!’

When they saw Little North excitedly look at the sect emblem that appeared on his chest, many of the people in the hall were tempted.

They must admit, this was a very good chance to join Lovely Land…

If even Little North, who was a boy who did not have a lot of experience in the world of martial artists, could join Lovely Land, then they definitely had hope. In fact, Happy might even recognize their worth.

“My Young Friend Happy.”

Just when the people had their emotions surge and were eager to take action, someone suddenly spoke, and because of him, the words that were at the tip of many people’s tongues died away.

Everyone simultaneously cast their gazes at Song Que and Ningdao Qi, whom they had been ignoring all this while.

Only these two old men could call Happy as their young friend in Song House.

“House master.” Happy had a thought appear in his head. He turned around and faced Song Que, because he knew that the main dish was here!

This time, he had completed his quest, but he did not receive the system notification telling him that he received his reward after the completion of the quest, and this caused him to feel incredibly perplexed. Right now, when he heard Song Que speak, he finally released a sigh of relief, but soon, he became high-spirited.

The other people in the mansion also watched them.

They could tell from Song Que’s stern expression that he had something to say.

Song Que said with a stern and serious expression, “My Young Friend Happy, if it were not for you helping me this time and if Brother Ningdao had not appeared, it’s impossible for me to force Evil King Shi Zhixuan to back down.”

“Hehe. Brother Song, stop trying to put a feather in my hat. I’ve never even drawn my sword from the moment I joined the fight.” Ningdao Qi smiled and denied any sort of contribution to the fight.

Song Que smiled faintly. “Originally, if I run into a youngster who has such outstanding talent, I would definitely want to hand you my legacy, but I can tell that you should have inherited the legacy of an elite from Shaolin Temple who has stepped into the Dao of heaven. Am I wrong to say that you are practising Tendon Changing Classic and Marrow Cleansing Classic?”

Happy was stunned silent.

‘Is there any relation between me getting this reward and the martial arts I inherited from Shaolin Temple?’

Even though he was puzzled, he did not show any hint of it on his face. He nodded. “It seems like I was not able to hide it from you.”

“I have just taken my first step into the Dao of heaven. Compared to your master, I am far more inferior. Hence, I can naturally not bring myself to give you this legacy.”

The people were instantly able to discern the reason behind why Song Que said this. The martial artists who had become One with the World also had things to consider when they handed over their legacy. They could not hand their legacy over to a disciple of someone who was also One with the World.

Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and the others put on attentive expressions in silence.

‘So, Happy has already inherited the legacy of a peerless elite who has become One with the World!’

Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy already attracted their attention, but now, Song Que mentioned that he could not hand over his legacy to Happy. This was the first time this sort of thing happened. They wanted to know whether this was good news or bad news to Happy. After all, the system would definitely give Happy a compensation that was of an equivalent level to the legacy.

And just as they expected, Song Que said, “That’s why I discussed things with Brother Ning just now. My young friend, you are from Shaolin Temple, and there is no need to question your personality. You are strong, and you do not need my legacy to make you stronger. That’s why I would like you to help me choose someone who can inherit my legacy!”

Happy had been prepared to receive another reward, but when he heard Song Que’s suggestion, he was no longer able to maintain his expression. Surprise bloomed on his face. “I’m… to choose?”

Song Que was calm and undaunted. “Indeed. With your strength, I believe that normal benefits and riches are already not important to you. But the only thing I can present to you is Eight Heavenly Saber Styles. What do you think of this, my young friend?”

When he said this, the hall fell completely silent.

Phantasmal Shadow, Lin Xiao, and the others finally realized just what sort of fortuitous chance Happy had received.

Even though he could not inherit the legacy himself, Happy had the chance to give the legacy of a martial artist who had become One with the World to someone else. This was practically the same as Song Que giving Happy the chance to create a top-class elite. Since this was the Eight Heavenly Saber Styles from a martial artist who had stepped into the Dao of heaven, this martial art must have already improved to great heights, and it was definitely a peerless martial art.

Phantasmal Shadow was tempted.

Even someone who lived as heroically and freely as Lin Xiao could not help but have his expression change, and he sucked in a sharp breath.

He lamented for Happy for losing the chance to increase his strength but sighed because he had the chance to create a top-class elite for Lovely Land, but that was only if he used it on the right person.

“This is my jade plate. My Young Friend Happy, you are a person of great morality, so please do not reject it. By then, you just need to have the person come to me with the jade plate, and I will definitely teach him or her everything.”

Right after Song Que finished speaking, everyone had their gazes trained on the jade plate in Happy’s hands. That plate was currently releasing a powerful saber will.

Happy furled his fist.

He had already snapped out of his surprise, and as he stared at the jade plate in his hands, he did not know whether he should be happy or sigh instead.

He was happy that he could give someone this legacy. This was something that had never happened before in the game, and he could be certain that the system would not trouble him because of how he completed the quest; the person with the plate would definitely be able to receive Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy smoothly. But he sighed and lamented over this fact, because his strength seemed to have advanced a little too much, causing the quest to not provide him with any substantial reward to increase his own strength.

While he sighed, Phantasmal Shadow was already unable to hold herself back, and she took the initiative to send him a private message beside him. “Brother Happy.”

“Hmm?” Happy had a thought appear in his head, and he looked in the direction of the voice.

“If you don’t have a suitable candidate, I am willing to buy the jade plate at a high price.” Even though Phantasmal Shadow also had incredible strength, she was also slightly tempted by the martial art of someone who was One with the World. After all, Evil Emperor and Happy had both received a legacy of the same level. “Of course, if you already have a candidate in mind or that you are bothered by this, pretend that I have never said this.”

Phantasmal Shadow was still very cautious in her choice of words.

After all, this was something belonging to Happy, and he had just received it when she immediately showed her desire for it. It was actually quite an unwise move on her part.

Happy tactfully refused Phantasmal Shadow’s offer and answered her with a private message, “I’m sorry. As of current, Lovely Land isn’t very stable yet, and our sect resources isn’t that rich. This jade plate has just come to us at an opportune moment.”

“Brother Happy, you don’t have to mind. Just pretend that I never said it.” Even though Phantasmal Shadow said those words, a flash of disappointment still rose in his eyes.

*****

“I didn’t expect that the reward for helping Song Que force Evil King away to be a legacy from an elite at One with the World Realm…”

The players in the mansion had finally registered what had happened at that moment. The virtual martial artists at the door and walls all held their breaths, and they stared at the jade plate in Happy’s hands with a burning gaze.

Everyone knew that as long as they had this jade plate, then there was a huge possibility that they could become as strong as Happy, One Emperor, and Evil Emperor. They could also become elites revered by the world!

It was easy to imagine just how tempting the jade plate was.

Even Little North, who had been incredibly excited because he joined Lovely Land, stared at the jade plate in Happy’s hands, and he did not even dare breathe loudly. His eyes widened so much that they almost bugged out.

“What a pity…”

Silver Wolf could only sigh in secret while he remained seated at the table beside Happy’s. ‘If I knew that it would provide such a great reward, even if I have to risk my life, I’d take the risk and try.’

After all, this was a legacy from a martial artist who was One with the World. If he inherited it…

His lips curled up slightly, and a sharp glare shone in Silver Wolf’s eyes, but it soon disappeared without a trace. He sighed, and that sharp look was replaced by harmless envy toward Happy.

At that moment, Happy’s voice rose. “House master, is this jade plate forever effective? What I mean is, there is no time limit for the person to present this jade plate to you, right?”

“My Young Friend Happy, you surely jest. I am a man of my word. As long as I have not died yet, whoever comes to Song House with the plate will be my disciple, and they can come at any time they want!”

Once he obtained Song Que’s promise, the group of people in the mansion became even more excited.

Because of this, Happy practically had a method to turn someone into a top-class elite in his hands!

“I wonder who will be lucky enough to get it.” As he stared at the jade plate in Happy’s hands, Thunderous Battle sighed softly.

“Yeah.” His party members discussed this fact among themselves. “The person who has the jade plate can obtain Heavenly Saber Song Que’s legacy. Eight Heavenly Saber Styles is a peerless martial art that can be used to fight against Evil King Shi Zhixuan!”

“You might not know about the situation at the cliff at that time. Whew… I have to tell you, that is all because of Heavenly Saber Song Que. Anyone who inherits Heavenly Saber’s legacy will be able to reach the skies with just one step!”

“Since Happy can’t inherit a second legacy from another martial artist who is One with the World, I reckon he’s currently feeling rather upset by it. But I’m guessing that the greatest possibility of the person who will get it will be Vice Sect Master Ji Feng of Lovely Land.”

When he heard the discussions beside him, Silver Wolf could not help but have a mocking look appear on his face. When Knife, Bar, and Thunder saw the gaze, they knew what it meant.

‘Ji Feng is not worthy of it.’

“I heard that Happy is formerly from Beautiful Robes Faction. Right now, some of the former members of Beautiful Robes Faction have been sent to be stationed in the southern branches. He might give it to someone from Beautiful Robes Faction.”

“Regardless of who it is, Lovely Land will definitely have a top-class elite emerge from it half a year later, and he might be someone whose strength can even catch up to One Emperor and Happy.”

“Congratulations, Sect Master Happy! Lovely Land will soon gain a powerful general!”

Just when everyone was discussing the jade plate, Lin Xiao suddenly lifted his head and congratulated Happy loudly.

It was only at that moment that the people in the mansion snapped out of their dazes. They lifted the winecups in front of them one after another. “Congratulations, Sect Master Happy!”

“Congratulations—”

“Thank you, everyone!” Happy did not hesitate. Once he downed his entire cup of wine, he put his cup down and had his gaze land on the jade plate once more. “Unfortunately, I cannot receive the legacy from two powerful martial artists who have stepped into the dao of heaven, but that’s fine. I’ll keep this jade plate, and half a month later, Lovely Land will hold a competition to determine its strongest fighter. I’ll just use this as a reward and a prize.”

His words caused all the people in the mansion to have their hearts tremble!

Silver Wolf had been prepared to sit down and put down his winecup, but his hand stopped moving at that moment!
