They had sacrificed Yang Botao, the marshal of the northern troop, thirty experts from the Four Seasons Tower, and sent out a mysterious saber in the sky to set up a fatal trap at a faraway place.
This trap was very ingenious and targeted. This person who had saved Yang Botao's life was escaping. Based on the current situation, no one else could catch up to him. Even if someone did, they would be killed by that saber.
Only Supreme Wind's wind attribute manifestation could possibly catch up to him.
As long as Supreme Wind caught up, the plan would be considered half completed.
As for Yang Botao, he was burdened with the blood feud of murdering the Nine Supremes. How could Supreme Wind not chase after the target of Supreme Wind's reappearance?
Even if he knew the risk, he would still give chase!
Therefore, this targeted plan was indeed flawless and flawless.
Furthermore, if Yun Yang was only Supreme Wind and only had the power of wind manifestation, he would not even be able to notice the saber that was locked onto him from behind!
That would be the end!
It was a pity that the culprit of the wind manifestation was not Supreme Wind but Supreme Cloud. The so-called flawless targeted trap had a huge loophole!
Yun Yang quickly came to a conclusion that there must be a trap in front of him. It was very likely to be a trap like the one at Tianxuan Cliff that could lock down and restrict the manifestation ability, the Spiritual Sealing Formation. This was also the opponent's main killing move against Supreme Wind.
Even if there was an accident and the Spiritual Sealing Formation could not kill him in the end, it would not matter. The saber that was following him would become a backup and continue to follow him. He could not maintain the wind manifestation forever. Once his mystical Qi cultivation base was exhausted, he would have to return to his human form eventually. Once he did so, he would die as well.
In addition, the opponent must be thinking of following the clues to get rid of the threat once and for all.
Yun Yang's mind raced, planning how to deal with the current crisis.
Now, he had changed from being a hunter to being hunted. The situation was precarious and he had to think of a way to deal with it.
There was no doubt that Heaven's Saber's cultivation base was unfathomable. What was more frightening was that Yun Yang did not even know how high this person's level was. Yun Yang was not even sure if Supreme Lord Spring Frost, He Hanqing, had such a cultivation base when he was at his peak!
Although He Hanqing had heavily injured Yun Yang who was in his wind manifestation with a single palm strike, it had been an unexpected turn of events and Yun Yang had just broken through. It was inevitable that he had been high-spirited and careless. More importantly, Yun Yang had just broken through to the fifth peak then and his manifestation cultivation base was only at the fourth level at most. Now, not only had his cultivation base increased tremendously, his manifestation cultivation base had also improved tremendously. Moreover, he was fully focused and cautious at all times. In such a state, Yun Yang was confident that even if he were to face He Hanqing, it would not be a problem for him to escape unscathed even if he still could not defeat him in a direct confrontation!
In spite of this, the saber in the sky had locked onto and tracked Yun Yang like a maggot in a tarsal bone. It was not far from him, neither too fast nor too slow. Yun Yang was already shocked and terrified by it.
Yun Yang even suspected that he would need to be at the level of Ling Xiaozui, Jun Moyan, and Dugu Chou to have such an ability. Even if there was still a gap, it would not be very far.
With his current cultivation base, whether he could escape the pursuit of the saber in the sky or not, as long as his true identity was exposed, not only Yun Yang himself, but the entire Residence of Yun would be annihilated. Yun Yang believed that even if the Residence of Yun combined all of its combat power, it would still not be a match for the saber!
This was the Four Seasons Tower's true ability!
However, how was he going to deal with this person?
To Yun Yang, it was not difficult to simply escape. He was not Supreme Wind after all; he only had the wind manifestation power, especially now that he still had the advantage.
Now that he had the initiative and discovered the other party, it was not difficult for him to break away from the other party's pursuit.
However, if he did so, Yang Botao would definitely be able to escape!
This was something that Yun Yang could not accept and was unwilling to do.
Today, he had reappeared as one of the Nine Supremes with the ultimate goal of targeting Yang Botao. If he were to escape, not only would it be a waste of effort, it would be a huge loss. How would he be able to face his brothers' coffins?
Yun Yang steeled his heart. He could not watch Yang Botao being rescued, no matter what!
This person had to die!
The enemy who killed his brothers had already been caught by him, so he had to die!
If he were to let the tiger return to the mountain today, he did not know when he would be able to see it again.
Yun Yang carefully separated a strand of his attention to continue controlling the howling wind. He was still drifting with the white clouds, but he was deliberately and covertly gathering the clouds from all directions, slowly gathering them together, causing the sky to gradually darken.
It looked like it was about to rain.
Lightning began to flicker slowly in the clouds.
Yun Yang was multitasking, using his various skills to weave a beautiful, hidden setup.
However, the gale did not show any signs of slowing down, continuing to chase after the black silhouette in front until it rushed into the forest on the other end.
When the gale entered the forest, there was a faint mystical saber light in the sky. However, the saber light disappeared in a flash, as if it had never existed.
It was as if it had returned to waiting.
Half of his mission had been completed. He only needed to wait for the follow-up results.
Supreme Wind had already chased after the person into the forest. What followed next was the matter on the other side.
Even if the formation on the other side could not kill Supreme Wind, Supreme Wind would still turn into the wind and escape in the end.
As long as he turned into the wind and escaped, Yun Yang would be able to track him immediately since he had already locked onto his aura, all the way to his lair. Perhaps he could wait until the moment when his mystical Qi was exhausted. Whether it was to eliminate the root of the problem or to kill Supreme Wind alone, Supreme Wind was dead for sure!
Although he had promised Ice to bring Yang Botao back alive, if Yang Botao were to be killed before he could do anything, he could only blame it on his bad luck. The priority of this mission was to kill the Nine Supremes.
The forest was filled with plants, so the visibility was much lower than on flat ground. What was more, the sudden shroud of dark clouds made the surroundings so dark that one could not even see their own fingers.
In spite of this, the black silhouette still carried Yang Botao and moved forward quickly without any delay. It was obvious that he was very familiar with the terrain of the forest.
The howling of the wind suddenly increased in volume.
Yang Botao who was lying on the back of the black silhouette was still unconscious. There was a transparent hole on his thigh, where an arrow from the Deicide Bow had pierced through his thigh, taking away a section of his femur bone. If there was no special bone-forging technique, Yang Botao would inevitably be crippled for life.
There was another mystical steel arrow stuck on his waist, only half of the shaft exposed. Yang Botao was wearing a soft armor made of an unusual material but the mystical steel arrow had been shot by Tie Zheng with all his might. It had actually pierced through the soft armor and pierced into Yang Botao's body.
Looking at the depth, it had already entered the abdominal cavity.
The gale was like a knife, causing the entire forest to emit a strange sound that resembled the wailing of ghosts and the howling of deities.
Countless tree branches snapped, hitting the black silhouette and Yang Botao like a thunderstorm.
Blades of wind appeared out of nowhere and danced behind the two of them, showing off their sharpness.
Amidst the darkness and chaos, the black figure was unable to dodge at all. He could only let out a wild roar and spit out a mouthful of blood. Green light blossomed from his body, and he used his pure Profound Qi cultivation to envelop both of their bodies. He mustered up his courage and continued to advance forward.
However, his speed was inevitably slowed down.
The black silhouette knew that the destination of the trap was at the top of the mountain. However, with his speed and Supreme Wind's constant attacks, it would be difficult for him to make it to the top of the mountain.
"Ol 'Fourth Qiao!"
The black silhouette increased the circulation of mystical Qi, maintaining his defensive state. As he sprinted upwards with all his might, he suddenly shouted, "Come down and pick me up!"
On the top of the mountain, someone answered. Then, the rapid sound of the wind could be heard.
The change was within the black silhouette's expectations. After Supreme Wind had sensed his call for help, he had pushed the wind attribute attack to its maximum limit. It was obvious that he wanted to kill both himself and Yang Botao before the black silhouette's reinforcements arrived.
It seemed that Supreme Wind really hated Yang Botao to the core and would not rest until he was dead.
Even though he understood this, the black silhouette was powerless. If he was at his peak, he would be able to fight Supreme Wind's wind blade encirclement. Even if he could not, it would not be a problem for him to hold on until the reinforcements arrived or to the top of the mountain.
However, he had fought his way out of Tiantang City. He had even borrowed the advantage of being in the outermost layer, sprinting all the way down from the city wall. Up till now, he had forcefully activated the life force arcane art twice. He was already at the end of his tether!
If he was not at the end of his tether, why would he have to call for help?
He might not be able to defend himself against a fifth peak cultivator's attack now.
The wind blades flew wildly. Finally, with a pop …
The mystical Qi's air shield broke while the expert spat out a mouthful of blood. He staggered, carrying Yang Botao on his back as he crashed into a big tree.
The mouthful of blood was not the price of forcefully activating the arcane art. He was seriously injured. The black silhouette was finally exhausted, unable to hold on any longer.
However, the sound of the wind was still shrill as the wind blades continued to fall.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
With a flash of cold light, blood splattered.
The black silhouette expert who had been carrying Yang Botao on his back had actually cried out before his head was separated from his body, heading to the underworld!
At the same time that the black silhouette expert had perished, a gush of warmth flowed into Yun Yang's senses.
It was the Qi of injustice.
Yun Yang snorted softly as he materialized again.
Above him, another black silhouette shot over like an arrow. "Supreme Wind! You live up to your reputation indeed. Take this! "
