"Secondly. We need to increase our manpower here. "
Shui Wuyin said, "The manpower available now is too little and our cultivation base is even weaker. Once we meet a strong enemy, we won't be able to defend ourselves."
How could Yun Yang not know this? However, it was not easy to change this. There were many experts in the world and many capable people, but as long as one's cultivation base had reached the fifth peak and above, there was basically no cultivator who was willing to be under someone else's command and obey orders.
To put it nicely, Yun Yang was Supreme Cloud, the brains of the Nine Supremes. His reputation among the people was close to the pinnacle, but it was nothing to the real experts.
How could he have a strong foundation in this aspect?
How could he attract so many experts to serve him?
"It's easier said than done." Yun Yang chuckled bitterly.
"The third point is …" Shui Wuyin said, "We can't act with our own strength in the future. If others can hire assassins to kill us, we can, of course, hire assassins to kill others."
"Leveraging force to fight force is a great tactic we can use now. We can't give up on it. Although we'll need a massive amount of financial support to do this, we can't let it go! "
Yun Yang stroked his chin. This point could be considered. He had too much money to spend now …
"There's also the fourth point." Shui Wuyin said, "Boss, your identity may have to be revealed."
Yun Yang frowned. "My identity? You mean … "
Shui Wuyin said, "Of course not your real Supreme Cloud identity. Exposing your identity as the Nine Supremes' think-tank will only attract endless attacks … I'm talking about your other identities, boss. Roaming the world, letting others know that the Nine Supremes are still alive and able to contact various officials …"
"Leveraging the power of the entire country, the military and the government …"
Shui Wuyin said, "Regarding this point, I think Boss will have to carefully consider it. What should we do to ensure that nothing goes wrong? "
Yun Yang nodded deeply. "I understand what you mean. I'll think about what to do and how to proceed later."
Yun Yang had also discovered his shortcoming during this period of time. He could only use his popinjay identity as the son of Marquis of Heavenly Clouds to deal with whatever happened.
Such an identity was obviously not enough!
Perhaps, it should be said that it was more than enough compared to what was above.
"Anything else?" Yun Yang asked.
"Yes, but the rest are more fragmented." Shui Wuyin said, "I still need to sort them out before I can take them out for discussion."
Yun Yang heaved a few long breaths.
"Also … about the few names you've gotten from Mi Kongqun, young master, there's a high probability of it being true – at least eighty percent," Shui Wuyin said, "These people will be our next targets."
"No matter what, I have to collect some interest for my boss!"
"My original target was Supreme Lord Spring Frost He Hanqing …"
Shui Wuyin said, "Although this person is an imminent threat that must be eliminated, after thinking about it, the chances of us killing him is still less than ten percent even if we use all our means. In the face of absolute power, we are powerless even if we have the will to try … If we want to deal with him, it will only be possible if we have the help of an expert who is on par with him … Next, we can try to find some super experts. It would naturally be best if they could serve us, but … even if it is just once, it will be much more appropriate than us acting rashly!"
Shui Wuyin looked at Yun Yang.
At this point, he was really just talking, and the rest could only watch from the sidelines.
Shui Wuyin's heart was too cold. This trait had led to him not knowing many people, much less having no friends!
Yun Yang smiled bitterly, looking at Bai Yixue's room, who had been recuperating from his injuries, feasting and not stepping out all day. He pursed his lips and said, "Which one of these masters is easy to serve?"
If it had been before, Yun Yang would have been thrilled to have killed an important figure in the Four Seasons Tower like Mi Kongqun and received accurate information about the others.
Now, however, he did not feel the slightest bit of happiness.
It was because of He Hanqing!
He knew that Supreme Lord Spring Frost was like a huge mountain in front of him, but he could not move him no matter what!
This was what made him feel the most helpless.
Just like what Shui Wuyin had said, in the face of absolute power, he was powerless!
In the past, the Nine Supremes had intimidated the world and thought that the world was vast. Now that they had fallen, Yun Yang was the only one left. Yet, his aspiration remained unchanged and his will to seek revenge was firm. Although his aspiration remained the same, as his cultivation base and skill improved, the more experts he met, the more he felt the vastness of the universe. He was still far from being enough; there was always a higher mountain in a flash and a wider world beyond the sky …
"However …"
Yun Yang's eyes shone suddenly.
It seemed that this matter was not entirely impossible.
"Fang Mofei …"
Yun Yang turned to call out. We have a way here.
…
Bai Yixue, who was dressed in white as usual, sat quietly by the window. He looked relaxed and relaxed.
Bai Yixue enjoyed the tranquil surroundings of the Residence of Yun and the tranquil atmosphere very much.
He had come to the Residence of Yun to ask Yun Yang questions and get to the bottom of the matter. Although he was unwilling and wanted an explanation, he had also thought of this as a place to avoid trouble. After all, he really had nowhere to hide at that time. If he did not come here, he could only wait for death. However, after coming here, especially after living here for some time, he truly did not want to leave.
Such a quiet place.
Such a spacious place.
There was no one he did not want to see to disturb him.
It was the perfect place to avoid trouble!
Up until now, not only had He Hanqing's subordinates not found this place, even King Qinguang had not found this place.
All in all, Bai Yixue really did not want to leave.
I have injuries on me.
I'll leave once I'm healed.
Bai Yixue often comforted himself this way during this period of time.
However, the truth was that while Bai Yixue's injuries were not light and he was covered in wounds, what was his cultivation base? With these two days of no disturbances, as well as the buffering of many healing spirit medicines, his injuries had already recovered by seventy to eighty percent.
He … really didn't want to leave this time. He was reluctant to leave!
After standing for a while longer, Bai Yixue slowly sat down with his legs crossed and began to cultivate his cultivation method. His injuries were no longer a hindrance, so it was only natural for him to resume his cultivation and cultivate his sword energy. Not only were his injuries severe from the previous battles, his cultivation base was damaged as well. Now was the time for him to fully recover his cultivation method. The earlier he recovered, the better. Even though Bai Yixue was beginning to miss the Residence of Yun's atmosphere, he would not let his guard down. Who knew when King Qinguang or He Hanqing's men would come knocking on his door? Relying on someone else was never as good as relying on his own ability!
"There's not much resources left. I need to think of something." Bai Yixue sighed inwardly and began to fish out items from his embrace.
Bai Yixue carried dozens of pieces of exotic metals with him; they were the ones he had pawned to Yun Yang previously.
These exotic metals were extremely valuable; it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were priceless. However, Bai Yixue's talent was unique and the cultivation method he cultivated was different as well. He needed to nourish his sword energy with a large amount of metal Qi to improve his cultivation method. Although exotic metals were rare in this world and were known to have a higher value, there were plenty of exotic metals that ordinary people could not smelt or melt when they got their hands on them. They could only look at them helplessly without being able to use them, which meant that they were useless. In spite of this, these items were the best support for Bai Yixue's cultivation. Therefore, what he had with him were all sorts of exotic metals and metals.
"The metal Qi on these materials should be enough for two months. Let's hope that these two months can be peaceful …" Bai Yixue thought as he took out the metal pieces and placed them on the table.
Two months was not a long time, it would pass in the blink of an eye. However, Bai Yixue estimated that his cultivation base would be enough to recover completely within these two months. Once his ability was restored, he would leave Tiantang City as soon as possible and gather the mystical metals and metals once he was strong enough.
However, Bai Yixue's entire body stiffened at the very next moment. His eyes were fixated on the various metals he had just taken out, his eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets.
What – what was going on?
The three pieces of meteoric metals that he had just taken out were dull and lifeless; they did not have the original luster of the exotic metals. Instead, they looked more like rotten wood.
It was not like …
The meteoric metals were covered in tiny holes, like the eyes of a needle, densely packed. There were even signs of damage at the edges, as if the rocks had been weathered after being exposed to the wind and sun.
"This …" Bai Yixue's eyes were wide as he extended his hand to pick up a piece of Stellar Steel to study it. Immediately, he groaned, feeling weak all over.
Once he touched it, Bai Yixue immediately felt that something was amiss. The meteoric metals were no longer of their original weight. They were light, like they were only slightly heavier than the most common piece of wood.
Bai Yixue tried to break it with his fingers in disbelief.
Crack!
He broke off a piece effortlessly.
Now, Bai Yixue truly broke down.
Even if it was a piece of wood, it should not be this weak …
His hands were trembling, and he began to focus his attention on the next piece. Just like before, he could tell that something was wrong with it at first glance, and it broke with a pinch … Was this still the most mysterious and hardest meteoric iron in the world?
Bai Yixue shuddered as he took out all the rest of the metal pieces – chalcedony, precious metals from the bottom of the sea, cold iron – like he had gone mad.
They were all the same!
Using this to assist in cultivation, forget cultivating and nourishing sword energy, even a kitchen knife could be chopped into a few pieces! Smashing it with a wooden board would cause a pile of powder to scatter on the floor!
Bai Yixue was at a loss for a moment. His legs gave way and he fell to the ground.
Not only did he lose his composure, his eyes were dull as well.
It was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a strange situation!
This was steel! And not just any steel! This was mystical steel, Stellar Steel, cold iron, the essence of Golden Jade … This was not a biscuit!
Now, there were only three words in Bai Yixue's mind – what the hell …
Yun Yang walked in just in time to see Bai Yixue's dispirited look. Looking at the rare metals that Bai Yixue had pawned to him on the table, he immediately understood what was going on.
Ninety-nine percent of the essence of the rare metals had been extracted by Emmie. Bai Yixue did not understand, but Yun Yang was well aware of it.
The corners of Yun Yang's lips twitched. His body that had just entered turned to walk out immediately. It was more important to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible!
Why did he feel a little guilty?
