From Lei Dongtian's arrangements when he first came into contact with him, from indirectly coming into contact with Dong Tianleng and not killing him despite being humiliated, Lei Dongtian had taken the opportunity to build a friendship with him and was eager to rope him in, not hesitating to give him a large amount of quality resources. He had even revealed many high-end secrets of the Bound of Universe to him. All of these showed that this person was a ruthless and calculative character.
It was just that he had fallen into Yun Yang's trap since the beginning and did not realize how deep he had sunk into it. If the situation was clear, Yun Yang was not confident that he could trick the other party!
Then again, scheming was a deliberate ploy. If one knew that they were enemies and did not scheme, would one not be a fool? This time, he had completely cleared Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan's suspicions.
Under the premise of a deliberate ploy, it was as simple as that – one encounter was all that mattered.
However, he still had to consider the safety of the two girls and where to hide!
"We're not leaving!"
Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan's reactions were identical.
Both of them had seen the entire process of Yun Yang's ploy, so they knew what kind of whirlpool the Residence of Yun was now embroiled in.
Facing the Four Seasons Tower's impending revenge, even if the main target was Lei Dongtian, Yun Yang had also dragged himself into it when he planned everything.
Whether it was because he was a prominent figure in Yutang's higher authority or because he was Lei Dongtian's best friend, the Four Seasons Tower would not turn a blind eye to Yun Yang. He was the best target, the only choice!
If he were to leave at such a time … the two girls felt that it was absolutely impossible!
After so many years of being in this world and experiencing so many joys and sorrows and family betrayals, Yun Yang could be said to be their last warm harbor!
They would not leave!
The two women's resolute attitude made Yun Yang feel a surge of warmth despite him being at his wit's end.
They were indeed eighth brother's younger sister and fiancée. They knew that danger was coming, but they still did not seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
However, how could he let the two of them be in danger?
Even if it was only a risk, he could not!
…
"Lao Mei, Lao Bai, Lao Fang. The Residence of Yun is about to face a huge problem. The Four Seasons Tower's revenge will come soon. What do you think? Feel free to speak your mind! "
Yun Yang looked at the three people in front of him.
"It's just a battle of strength!" Lao Mei was nonchalant.
"As long as I can accompany Young Master, it's fine. Life and death is but a blink of an eye." Fang Mofei smiled casually.
"Sigh … can I go to the toilet?" Bai Yixue sighed.
"No."
"What can I do? It was nothing more than fighting with them! There's still a long way to go before our agreement expires! "
Bai Yixue's expression was bitter.
Yun Yang chuckled and took out three jade boxes from his sleeves. "There are three Cinnabar Fruits in each box. You can eat one later and it should increase your cultivation base by fifty years. The second one can increase your cultivation base by thirty years, and the third one can increase your cultivation base by twenty years. For the next three days, I will eat one every day. I must raise my combat power to a new height and increase my chances of survival! "
Bai Yixue and the other two men's eyes bulged.
"If what Lei Dongtian said is true, I can increase my cultivation base by a hundred years if I consume three scarlet fruits!" Yun Yang said softly, "I hope that we will all be fine after this catastrophe."
Fang Mofei and the other two men's breaths quickened as they stared at the jade boxes before them, speechless.
This was the true meaning of heaven and earth's treasure!
The legendary heaven and earth treasure that could increase one's cultivation base just by eating one!
It was actually placed right in front of them.
It was not just one, but three for each of them. A hundred years of cultivation base?
Everyone knew that no matter how precious the heaven and earth treasure was, only the first one could increase the user's cultivation base the best. The second one would be greatly reduced and the third one would be even worse than the second one. Therefore, Yun Yang giving each of them three scarlet fruits at once was, strictly speaking, a huge waste. There were nine scarlet fruits for the three of them; if they were to be divided among the nine of them, each of them could increase their cultivation base by fifty years. The difference was obvious!
However, Yun Yang had given the scarlet fruits to the three of them without hesitation. The importance he placed on them and the sincerity he showed was obvious!
"Thank you, young master!"
Even Bai Yixue could not help being moved.
A martial artist's thirst for improvement was something no ordinary person could understand.
That was simply a kind of extreme fanaticism!
After all, Yun Yang giving out three scarlet fruits at once was unheard of in the Tianxuan Continent!
This was not something that could be described as generous.
"It's a pity that you can only eat three of these scarlet fruits. If you eat any more, you'll be no different from an ordinary fruit." Yun Yang sighed. "Take them and disperse!"
"You must improve your abilities within three days. Perhaps these three days are the only days we can relax!"
"Yes, young master!"
Lao Mei, Fang Mofei, and Bai Yixue's eyes shone brightly.
…
Yun Yang was in the middle, facing the four popinjays of Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
"Boss, we really don't want to leave. Why do you think we should go back to the family? We're just not valued in the family … "Qiu Yunsan hung his head low." It's nothing compared to living here, doing whatever we want and being free. "
"Yes, once we go back, it's basically no different from being locked up. There's someone poking at your forehead and scolding you every day. It's even worse than being locked up …"
"That's right." Dong Tianleng was wrapped up like a dumpling. "There are too many elders in the family … each of them can point at us and scold us … and we can't even talk back. Can you imagine that atmosphere, boss? It's so painful that it's unbearable to look at it. It's not a joke …"
Xia Bingchuan nodded. "Actually, it's better to let the guards send the mystical beasts back. Isn't it better for us to stay here and play with boss?"
Yun Yang laughed. "Don't tell me you can stay here for the rest of your lives. You'll have to go back sooner or later. Even if you play here for a year or ten years, there'll still be a day of separation. How can there be a banquet that never comes to an end? "
The four of them sighed together, their dejection evident in their expressions.
Yun Yang said in a low voice, "Four brothers, although you may or may not know it yourselves during this period of time, you've indeed helped me a lot. Yun Yang expresses his sincere gratitude here."
Yun Yang's sudden change in demeanor stunned the four of them. Not only did they not know what to do, they were also at a loss. After a while, they said, "What are you talking about, boss? It's your younger brother's turn if there's a problem …"
"Don't interrupt, let me finish!"
Yun Yang took a deep breath and said softly, "I know that although all of you have your own selfish motives, everyone's relationship during this period of time has been pretty good and we've been getting along very happily."
"Before you leave, I'll give each of you a gift."
Yun Yang pushed out square jade boxes and said softly, "In the box in front of each of you, there's a five-hundred-year-old cinnabar fruit. After consuming it, immediately cultivate your Qi and you'll gain fifty years of pure mystical Qi cultivation base."
Yun Yang smiled and said, "Consider it a parting gift from me to the four brothers."
This time, the four of them went from being in a daze to being sluggish. They felt as if their brains had suddenly exploded.
What?
The legendary cinnabar fruit? A five-hundred-year-old cinnabar fruit at that?
How could their boss give away such a god-given opportunity so casually?
One must know that each time such a legendary treasure of heaven and earth appeared in the martial world, it would be accompanied by a bloodbath!
Even if a family were to obtain such an item, they would have to pay a certain price. Moreover, Dong Tianleng and the other three brothers knew very well that even if their own family were to obtain this item, it would never be their turn!
Yet, their boss had given it to them so casually?
Could it be that they were dreaming?
"Brotherhood is the most precious thing, but even after you've obtained it, it's still easy to destroy it. Perhaps it's just a word, a fight of pride, and the brotherhood will be gone."
Yun Yang said seriously, "I hope that the four of you will never forget this bond between you no matter what happens. Don't destroy it easily, don't forget this rare fate."
The four of them were still in a daze, unable to face reality.
"There's no need to wait for the future. Consume the cinnabar fruit this afternoon and don't mention this to anyone. After you're done cultivating and digesting it, leave immediately."
"Dong Tianleng, remember to look for me when you leave tonight. I have something else to tell you."
Yun Yang stood up slowly and said, "The rise and fall of fate has its own cause and effect. If it's fated, we'll meet again."
By the time the four of them had regained their senses, Yun Yang's tall and straight figure had already disappeared from the room.
The four of them still sat where they were quietly, still feeling the violent impact in their minds. The four popinjays did not even glance at the four jade boxes on the table that contained the cinnabar fruit, nor did they touch them.
…
Yun Yang stood quietly outside the door, observing for a moment before leaving.
His handsome face was expressionless, with a depth that he had never shown before.
"All along, I've only been thinking of how to use you all. The Spirited Serpent Sword that I've imbued with the air of vitality, the three mystical beasts that have been imbued with the air of vitality, and the four cinnabar fruits, consider them my compensation to all of you. "
Yun Yang thought quietly in his heart.
"Although all of you are popinjays, each of you is a man of character. If I had nothing to worry about, perhaps I could really make friends with all of you. It's a pity that your association with me now will only cause all of you to lose your lives in the hands of the Four Seasons Tower."
"In fact, I'll even destroy your entire clan."
"My original plan was to let all of you suffer great losses, and I've always done so. However, at the very last moment, I've decided to let all of you go."
"Because each and every one of you is adorable."
…
In front of Yun Zuiyue and Supreme Flame's cenotaph.
Yun Yang's expression was calm as he stood there quietly.
His gaze was deep and serene.
…
After writing this chapter, Yun Yang inexplicably felt much more relaxed. I am very happy for him.
