“Pant… pant…”

Happy pressed his sword against his knees once he sat down cross-legged. Then, he activated Constellation Breathing Technique so that he could restore himself. After the vigorous exercise drained him of his stamina, he was left only with exhaustion and sweat.

He had actually underestimated these ninjas and overestimated his own stamina!

The him in his previous life could really get rid of a group of ninjas like that without breaking a sweat. But his abilities right then were away from those in his previous life. He still needed to use Dragon Capture to kill every Shadow Warrior, and he could only kill them after attacking twice. However, he was only in Mystical Realm, so there was no way he could handle squandering qi like that.

If it were not for the fact that he had prepared many Dew Pills and his Golden Bell Cocoon realm was high, handling the four Shadow Warriors would have been his limit! He would not have been able to kill the other enemies, such as the Shadow Ninjas or Ninja King.

As for the remaining dozens of Cloning Ninjas, Japanese Ninjas, and Knife-throwing Ninjas, they were not that difficult to deal with. When they were all lured to one place, Happy killed the few Cloning Ninjas instantly. He also dealt with all the Knife-throwing Ninjas with another Seven Stars Brilliant Moon. However, the recovery effects of the Dew Pill were almost not fast enough in restoring his qi, and he overdrew on it.

If a Shadow Ninja had shown up after that, he probably would have died right there!

Fortunately, the cunning Shadow Ninja never showed up.

Happy relied on the astonishing recovery speed of Constellation Breathing Technique, and in a few minutes, he returned to the peak of his condition!

When he looked at the bodies of the ninjas that filled the tunnel, he was impressed with himself. With his power in Mystical Realm, he had managed to gain victory at the cost of twenty Dew Pills.

If he told anyone about it, they might not believe him!

Of course, if he told this to Lu Mingyue, who was the successor of an ultimate technique that had insanely good long-range and group battle abilities, he would not find it so amazing.

When he remembered the successor of Sunflower Manual who did his best to learn Dongfang Bubai’s coquettish behavior so that his abilities would increase by leaps and bounds, Happy’s agitated heart swiftly calmed down.

Whoosh!

Happy stood up from the ground.

He cast a glance at the Knife-throwing Corpses that were the closest to him, then slowly went over to them and collected their Universal Bags in a familiar motion. After that, he brought out all the items inside them.

Then, he went to the Japanese Ninjas, Cloning Ninjas, and Shadow Warriors.

His rewards were great!

He obtained four Bamboo Hats, the Whirlwind Boots, and Three-pronged Halberd the Cloning Ninjas used, along with fourteen sets of the Knife-throwing Ninjas’ Soaring Eagle Sword.

Tachis, Katanas, and Tsurugis were all grade two or grade three masterpieces. He had two of each, and the sabers as well as swords were all very valuable too. He could sell all of them for a good price.

However, what Happy paid attention to the most were not those masterpieces, but the high-tier throwing knife manual the Knife-throwing Ninjas had dropped—Shadowless Knife.

It came at the perfect timing.

Happy had once placed an ad to buy a high-tier throwing knife manual in the commission shop once he mastered his lancet knives, but unfortunately for him, he never managed to find a manual. The one before him could be considered to have settled some of his regrets.

He put away his loot and turned his head around to cast a glance at the square-shaped hall.

There was a group of ninjas inside there along with a weapon box that had yet to be opened .

He reckoned that the people from the four great sects should have arrived by then. He had already taken a lot of spoils, so it was about time for him to distribute some of whatever was left to the others. Besides, there was still a lot of treasures left in the royal mausoleum.

He pondered over it for a while, but he did not go back. He walked past the corpses that were strewn all over the ground and headed into the depths of the royal mausoleum with great resolve.
