Chapter 360: Brother Lei, You’re Wrong!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Yun Yang left the Residence of Qiu, he felt a tinge of regret in his heart. As old marshal Qiu had said, it was indeed quite a pity for such an accomplished a.s.sa.s.sin to die.

However, regardless of how regretful he felt, the a.s.sa.s.sin was now trapped in the Empire of Ziyou, far beyond their reach. Even if he were to have the thought of saving him, or even to put that thought into action, the captive would probably die before the cavalry arrived. This was beside the fact that he could not even leave at all for now. Just the matters pertaining to Lei Dongtian, Sister Lan, and Lingxi, and a series of other things would require a lot of time to deal with.

Well, as a person, the concept of distinct closeness in relations.h.i.+ps would always exist. Yun Yang was also a man, hence he was no exception!

A man who was too virtuous and able to put others before himself, able to care about others before taking care of his own people could not be deemed as a man, but a saint!

Therefore, during the communication with Shui Wuyin earlier, Yun Yang was causally brief on the matter, "Oh yes, Shui Wuyin. Do get someone to check on the matter regarding the a.s.sa.s.sin who was caught in Ziyou; If it is really a loyalist from our side, do check if we are able to help him. At the very worst, we must also try to help in ensuring the safety of his family. Otherwise, try to find an opportunity to give him a straightforward death, without having him undergo a heroic humiliation and to die with hatred.

Shui Wuyin merely nodded in agreement and did not put much thought into the matter.

"Young master, the matter pertaining to the a.s.sa.s.sin is not an issue, but there is another thing which is rather difficult to deal with right now."

"What kind of matter is this that could have you defeated?"

"It is with regards to the two ladies..." Shui Wuyin's expression was as bitter as a gourd, "They’ve almost gone mad at the way they were treated. I have been beaten thrice when I tried to appease them. If such conditions were to continue, I am afraid that I will turn mad as well..."

Yun Yang patted his head. This matter was a headache indeed.

The plan that Yun Yang had in mind previously was, perhaps, not entirely thought through. His most ideal thought was to retreat fully and at most, to have his ident.i.ty as the Nine Supreme remain hidden. How could he have known that things would turn around in such a manner?

Now that everything was over, the worst case scenario that he had in mind originally did not appear at all. He would, of course, want to bring Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan back. However, the more specific issue was how to explain himself when they returned?

That mouthful of anger, how was he going to let the two ladies release it?

He had rendered them unconscious and sent them away ... it would be near impossible for them to forgive him if they were to come back!

"This matter is difficult indeed. It’s better to trouble you to stay there for a few more days and to tell them that I am fine here. The only thing to let them know is that the whole building of the Residence of Yun had been destroyed and requires reconstruction. Once the construction is done, I will then bring them home in the first instance."

The only solution that Yun Yang could think of for now was to avoid meeting them face to face and to let Shui Wuyin bear the blame as Shui Wuyin was the closest to eighth brother. Hence, to have his fiancé and his sister handled by Shui Wuyin was logical indeed, it was a perfect match, and within reason!

"Anyway, since things are over now, wait for a few days after their rage has receded; then it will be fine to bring them back."

Yun Yang thought in his heart.

Poor Young Master Yun. The young Lord Supreme Cloud, his name was well-known in the secular world, yet he was not able to understand a woman!

Women. This kind of creature was very strange indeed.

No matter what incident it was, as long as you explained it and made it clear at the first instant, right after it happened, nothing would come out of it after the release of temper, regardless of how serious the things were.

However, if you did not explain it in the first place, but instead opted to suppress it until a further time…it would then, whatever the thing it was, regardless of the fact that it was merely a matter of the size of a needle, be as tragic as the incident of a hero had been killed by the erosion of a hill due to the shattering of the earth!

Apparently, Yun Yang was still not aware of this.

Hence, when it came to the time where he deserved to pay for it, it would then be inevitable and right, reasonable, expected, and not surprising at all!

The trampling of Lord Supreme Cloud was inescapable.

...

Back in a room at the Tower to Heaven Inn...

"Young Master Lei has woken up." Bai Yixue came to report.

"Alright. I'll go and take a look."

...

"Brother Yun!" Lei Dongtian's eyes had turned red immediately the moment he saw Yun Yang.

"Alright alright. It’s fine now." Yun Yang sat down heavily in pain, "Brother Lei, I am sorry to tell you that... Old Mu has died."

"I know, I'm alright as long as you're alright..." Lei Dongtian said, "By G.o.d's mercy, you and I are still alive."

Lei Dongtian’s injuries had yet to be healed. To escape from death, it was the easiest for him to be moved by emotions.

"G.o.d bless indeed. Having such a lowly strength like me, I could only hope for a chance. By putting peculiar toxins at several places in the Residence of Yun, I was trying to gamble that the other side would definitely destroy my Residence of Yun. Most probably it was brother Lei who had caused them to lose their control by putting them in danger. As they were too eager to vent their rage once they had lost their domineering spot, sure enough, they would go against my Residence of Yun, causing Venerable Lord Sword to be poisoned eventually. The others had no antidote and were forced to compromise. To use such a lowly technique to survive is… quite shameful indeed."

Yun Yang sighed in a somehow dissatisfied tone as he uttered, "Brother Lei ... The Four Seasons Tower is... it is a colossus indeed. There isn't a single fict.i.tious character under its profound name. I have told you before that there are many talents from the Four Seasons Tower, especially the head of the Four Seasons Tower, Mr. Nian. Mr. Nian is a top-leveled hero who can compete with the world’s Unrivaled Expert Ling Xiaozui. Even if you didn’t deliberately avoid it, it is best to return to your family to bring more people over. Only then should you start attempting your stunts. However, if you do not listen..."

Lei Dongtian lowered his head, "I’ve really been wrong all this time ..."

"It is too risky." Yun Yang sighed deeply. "Although we were lucky enough to have them retreat, they had also put forward some conditions. Since their situation was greater than ours, I had no alternative but to compromise."

"What conditions are these?" uttered Lei Dongtian.

"The condition is to have you and me to draw lines between us. They had uttered it clearly and in a straightforward manner.Their aim is only to deal with you, and not me!" uttered Yun Yang.

While the hatred in Lei Dongtian’s eyes had turned vigorous, at the same time, doubts within him were raised, "Why?"

"I will then have to talk about my guardian gem." Yun Yang remained silent for a moment, "The Medallion of Grat.i.tude of Jun Moyan, the only left existing in this world, is with me."

Lei Dongtian had obviously heard about the profound name of Jun Moyan, he then solemnly replied. "I see. So have you agreed?"

Yun Yang suddenly turned unpleasant, "Brother Lei, what are you treating this young brother as? If I were to promise him at that time, how can Brother Lei still be alive at this point in time?"

Lei Dongtian hurriedly apologized, "Brother Yun, it was a slip of my tongue. How could I not know about your righteousness and loyalty? I hereby offer my solemn apology to you!"

Yun Yang replied, "I naturally would not have agreed to such conditions. However, the situation was too critical that time that I had to make certain considerable compromises. In addition to giving them the antidote that is able to remove the poison suffered by Venerable Lord Sword, I had promised them that I will not partic.i.p.ate in the battle between you fellows again. Accordingly, they will not be allowed to even step into my Residence of Yun regardless of when it is. "

The glances of Lei Dongtian flickered. Apparently, he heard the distinct difference within the roles.

"That is to say, if you were to land in a disadvantaged position in a future battle between you fellows, you can come forward to my Residence of Yun to take shelter temporarily." Yun Yang apologized, "This is the best outcome I could get."

Lei Dongtian took a deep breath, "I understand. To have such an outcome has already been extremely precious and valuable!"

"Initially, I wanted to urge them to surrender your fiancée back to you and to turn the wars into peace between each other. I had even promised them to be a lobbyist, deciding for you to not pursue the killing of Lao Mu this time and the matter that they had had you injured. However, the Four Seasons Tower was unwilling to promise."

Yun Yang looked to the right and left. Suppressing his voice, he then uttered, "Brother Lei, I suspect that ... the Four Seasons Tower seems to have a great interest in you ... That time I used the life of Venerable Lord Sword as a threat, the change in situation could be described as great. However, I can somehow vaguely feel that if I were to continue insisting upon it, the others will most likely choose to give up on Venerable Lord Sword and will not compromise again. Since things cannot be done in that way, I can only reach an understanding based on the current most favorable conditions! "

Lei Dongtian chuckled, "This is an inevitable matter! They will never agree to it. The benefits to me are too much indeed. The fact that they are willing to let us go temporarily is already beyond my expectations!"

"Brother Lei, just be here well and treat your injuries. We will talk again when your injuries are healed. "

Yun Yang stood up, "Now the Residence of Yun is under reconstruction. After it has been reconstructed, we will move back."

Lei Dongtian quietly nodded. However, his heart uttered; Move back? What kind of dignity do I have to move back? The destruction of Residence of Yun was all because of me!

Since the strength of the enemy was to such an extent, I must have another action. After a few days, I would immediately return to my family after my mobility has recovered and ask for the aiding armies to retaliate! In any case, I will have to remove the Four Seasons Tower once and for all!

I vowed to not be a human if this vengeance was not recompensed.

However, this affectionate friends.h.i.+p and life-saving grace of Brother Yun could not be left unrecompensed; for my sake, his ancestral foundation had been destroyed.

In any case, it is necessary to repay him.

Such a great brother has saved my life once again. If he were to be sacrificed as my cauldron in the future, the effect would presumably be unexpectedly ideal!

...

The other side.

Venerable Lord Sword and the others had gone outside the city of Yutang. Digging a cave under the mountain, they were temporarily avoiding the snowstorm and wind and relying on it for recuperation.

With their cultivation base, of course, they could have ignored the snowstorm. However, the seriously injured Venerable Lord Sword was not on the list for now!

At least three days of rest time was required before he could forcefully move the group.

However, after such a heavy impact, the diminis.h.i.+ng of the cultivation base of Venerable Lord Sword was an indisputable fact that was unavoidable.

"This time, my heart still remains confused even after the fight." Venerable Lord Ice scratched his head and uttered, "What were we actually fighting for? Why did they kill ol’Fifth?"

Venerable Lord Snow uttered coldly, "The cause is probably just a mere misunderstanding. However, up until the point where ol’Fifth had died, the so-called misunderstanding was no longer important."

"It seemed like Lei Dongtian did not even say anything about the cause this time, but had all along asked us, where are the people? Where are the people?" Venerable Lord Ice uttered, "Have we caught his people?"

Venerable Lord Frost grunted, "Since things have progressed to this extent, what is the purpose to even ask for the root cause? Is this the current crux of the matter?"

A voice full of misery and hatred resounded, "Yes since things have progressed to this extent, whatever the reason, whatever the cause, it is no longer necessary to pursue it! This vengeance is extremely deep, and we will not stop until we die!"
