Thinking of this, Bai Yixue was speechless.
He had just been laughing at First Court King Qinguang for being stupid, but what difference was there between him and King Qinguang? He might not even be as good as the other.
At least, King Qinguang was the one who had been tricked, but he himself was the one who had come looking for trouble!
"The reason First Court King Qinguang came here and stayed for a period of time is to kill you!"
Yun Yang chuckled softly. "The reason you came to Tiantang City was to avoid King Qinguang's death hunt. Am I right about this? "
Bai Yixue scratched his head. "Yes, but what do the both of us have to do with this?"
Yun Yang snorted and said, "It's a very simple and logical deduction. You were chased by him previously, running around in panic and panic. How did you suddenly have the time to wander around? Not only did you have the time to gamble, you could even accept my request to do something for me. All these have already shown that King Qinguang hasn't been in Tiantang City during this period of time. He must have left due to some unexpected incident."
"That's why you can be so carefree. You're temporarily safe now that your biggest rival has left. Otherwise, how would you have the mood to be so carefree? How dare you wander around without a care in the world? "
"Conversely, it also means that King Qinguang has no interest in anyone else in Tiantang City, especially when he doesn't know about you assassinating He Hanqing."
Yun Yang said.
"What does this have to do with me assassinating He Hanqing?" The corners of Bai Yixue's lips twitched. Could he not mention this?
"Of course it does, it's very much related! If he knew that you failed to assassinate He Hanqing and even suffered a loss, he probably wouldn't have accepted this deal. He would at least hesitate and confirm the target's identity and background. Even if he did accept it in the end, the price he'd ask for would be a terrifying sum. There's a high chance that I wouldn't be able to afford it. "
"There are many people in Tiantang City who know about you! So, as long as King Qinguang is back, he'll know as long as he's given some time. "
Yun Yang said, "So … I can't give him this time. Therefore, I went to look for him the moment he returned to Tiantang City. "
"I didn't give him time to understand what happened in Tiantang City during this period of time. He doesn't know what his next transaction will be … "
"Besides, I'm also betting on He Hanqing's identity. He Hanqing's identity as Supreme Lord Spring Frost is very likely something the Concourse of the Underworld can't accept. However, with so many names on the list, I'm betting that King Qinguang will only remember Supreme Lord Spring Frost, but he might not remember the name He Hanqing."
"If he remembers it, then there's no hope at all. But if he doesn't remember, then it will be my chance. "
"Just like what you saw and heard, I seized my opportunity just like that."
"Before this, I had also thought that it might not work. But I just thought, 'No matter if it works or not, why not give it a try? What if his luck was good? So I gave it a try. "
Yun Yang smiled and said, "So, this matter is settled. I really have to thank you for being his number one target and being heavily injured by him. Most of his attention was on you, otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to succeed! "
"I understand. When First Court King Qinguang truly understands the severity of this matter, there's no turning back. The contract has been signed! He can't bear the backlash of going against heaven's will. Even if he's unwilling, even if he's furious, he has to fulfill his promise! "Bai Yixue was full of admiration.
"I, Bai Yixue, have never admired anyone in my life and I've never thought that there's anything that can't be solved with a sword. It's only now that I know that the most lethal weapon isn't the sword, but calculation!"
Bai Yixue sighed, "Today's incident has let me know that even without an ounce of martial skill, one can still calculate the destruction of one's enemy, who has a high cultivation base!"
Yun Yang did not look pleased as he said faintly, "Of course, such calculation can achieve one's goal. In addition, it can also reap greater benefits in a short period of time, but … it's all despicable and despicable. If I had a choice, I wouldn't have done it."
"Everything is because of my lack of ability."
Yun Yang said, "The Concourse of the Underworld will definitely suffer a great loss if they want to complete their mission this time. I've used First Court King Qinguang's affection towards me in this matter. I'm despicable, I'm despicable, I admit it … but if I had to do it all over again, I'd still do it. "
Bai Yixue pursed his lips and said, "I wonder if Young Master Yun feels apologetic towards me? You've tricked me the same way! "
Yun Yang beamed and said, "That's why I'm prepared to compensate you."
Bai Yixue looked at Yun Yang and asked in a low voice, "How will you compensate me?"
Yun Yang thought about it while stroking his chin and said, "I'll compensate you handsomely. I can guarantee that you won't have to worry about food or clothing for the rest of your life from now on! I'll take care of your basic necessities, food, lodging, and everything you have! As the price for all these benefits, you'll only have to help me with a few things occasionally in the future. "
Bai Yixue said in disdain, "Do you really think I'm stupid? In your dreams!! "
He said angrily, "I almost lost my life for just one thing and you're asking for a few things … You're obviously taking me in as your subordinate! Dream on! "
Yun Yang said slowly, "Bai Yixue, if you don't agree, you'll definitely regret it in the future. You'll regret it immensely, but it'll be too late then!"
Bai Yixue scoffed.
He had already seen through Yun Yang's true intentions, how could he be fooled again? He would be an idiot if he were to fall for it again!
However, he had just taken a few steps when he jolted, completely stunned.
He turned back stiffly to look at Yun Yang.
Yun Yang smiled.
"I've still been tricked by you …" Bai Yixue groaned. "I've been tricked by you again!"
He finally understood.
Ever since Yun Yang had mentioned Supreme Lord Spring Frost to him, there was no way out for him.
He could still console himself if he did not know who the enemy was, but now that he knew, he was even more aware of how terrifying the Four Seasons Tower was. Just like what Yun Yang had said earlier, he couldn't go back even if he was afraid; he couldn't go back even if he betrayed him.
Even if he did not become Yun Yang's subordinate, the Four Seasons Tower would not let him go no matter where he was! While the Four Seasons Tower was going against him, it meant that he was also going against the Four Seasons Tower!
He was indirectly working for Yun Yang!
This little bastard!
Bai Yixue was utterly speechless.
Can you not plot against me to such an extent? In this life, can you let me get away from this? "
Shui Wuyin smiled at the side but did not make a sound. Shui Wuyin was in awe of Yun Yang's success in dragging the Concourse of the Underworld into this mess. It was amazing!
To Shui Wuyin, he did not have Yun Yang's psychological burden of being 'despicable'; he was absolutely delighted to see it happen. He said, "Young master's move is brilliant. With the Concourse of the Underworld's involvement, our subsequent plans will be much smoother. If we can pull in other similar super gangs in the future, it won't be an extravagant hope to set up a plan to assassinate He Hanqing …"
Bai Yixue rolled his eyes, finally unable to listen to it anymore and turned to leave.
These two fellows really did not know what was good for them.
Do you think an organization like the Concourse of the Underworld will be happy to be tricked by you?
You're thinking too much!
When this is done, the revenge from the Concourse of the Underworld will be unimaginably terrifying and cruel.
I hope you can still laugh when the time comes.
Just based on this alone, your father will never join you even if you beat him to death! However, when he thought about it again, Yun Yang was already a dead pig that did not fear boiling water.
He had already offended the Four Seasons Tower, why would he care about the Concourse of the Underworld?
He would die either way.
Bai Yixue heaved a long sigh as he thought about it.
Who have I offended? I've been dragged into the world's most terrifying whirlpool out of nowhere.
What Bai Yixue could think of, Yun Yang could not. Watching Bai Yixue leave, Yun Yang was no longer at ease, frowning with worry written all over his face.
Shui Wuyin said, "Young master is worried about the Concourse of the Underworld's subsequent revenge, am I right?"
Yun Yang smiled faintly. "Even if the Concourse of the Underworld's overall capability is weaker than the Four Seasons Tower's, it won't be too far off. Such a colossus has been tricked by us. Even if they have no choice but to consider the binding of the contract, the troubles in the future will not be little. Strictly speaking, our scheme this time is mostly not worth it. We might even be killing ourselves."
Shui Wuyin said, "I do have an idea about this but the follow-up will have to depend on the manpower that the Concourse of the Underworld sends out this time and the final outcome of this matter. It's still too early to talk about it now. Changes can never come as quickly as a plan!"
Yun Yang sighed.
He was not being pretentious; he really did not feel happy about the success of his scheme.
He was definitely not as relaxed as he appeared on the surface.
The Concourse of the Underworld, the Four Seasons Tower.
The two giants of the martial world.
The Concourse of the Underworld operated in the dark while the Four Seasons Tower was completely hidden. One was an assassin organization while the other was a mysterious organization.
As long as First Court King Qinguang accepted this mission, He Hanqing would basically die.
With the Concourse of the Underworld's capability, it was not difficult to kill Supreme Lord Spring Frost.
However, as long as He Hanqing was dead, even if he could incite a war between the two gangs, Yun Yang's own troubles would come one after another.
After all, he was the mastermind behind this battle, the common enemy of both parties!
More importantly, he had used Yun Yang's original appearance for this operation and First Court King Qinguang had seen his cloud manifestation skill. If he were to connect the dots, he might come to the conclusion that Yun Yang was Supreme Cloud!
It was not that Yun Yang had not thought of disguising himself to facilitate this, but how could First Court King Qinguang be so easily fooled? Other than Yun Yang himself, if it were someone else, he would not even bother about it!
"The plan now … must be prepared for a rainy day and be prepared as soon as possible." Yun Yang's gaze flickered.
