Yun Yang left the Residence of Qiu with a tinge of regret in his heart. Just like what Old Marshal Qiu had said, it was indeed a pity for such a top-notch assassin to die.
However, no matter how much of a pity he felt, he was now trapped in the Empire of Ziyou and beyond Yun Yang's reach. Even if he had the intention to save him or even take action, the assassin might have already died by the time he arrived. Furthermore, he was unable to free himself now. Lei Dongtian, Sister Lan, and Lingxi alone would require a lot of time to deal with.
Humans would always have a sense of closeness and distance. Yun Yang was a human as well, he was no exception!
Those who were too virtuous and could put others before themselves, taking care of others before caring for their own, were not humans but saints!
Therefore, when he contacted Shui Wuyin, Yun Yang casually instructed, "Right, Wuyin, get someone to investigate the assassin captured in Ziyou. If he's really a righteous man from our side, see if you can help him. At the very least, help to protect his family. Or find a chance to give him a quick death so that he doesn't have to suffer humiliation and die with regret. "
Shui Wuyin agreed and did not take this matter to heart.
"Young master, the Ziyou assassin is not a difficult matter. Instead, it's another matter that is difficult to deal with."
"What is it? How can it trouble you? "
"It's all because of those two young ladies …" Shui Wuyin's expression was as bitter as a gourd. "They're going crazy now. I went to comfort them but I've been beaten up three times. If this goes on, I'll go crazy too …"
Yun Yang patted his head, feeling rather troubled by this matter as well.
Yun Yang's previous plan was too bad. His most ideal idea was to retreat unscathed, at most not exposing his identity as one of the Nine Supremes. How could he have imagined that the situation would take such a turn?
Now that the matter had passed, the terrible situation that he had envisioned was no longer there. He had to bring Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan back, but the more specific problem was how to explain it after he brought them back.
How could he let the two ladies vent their anger?
He had knocked them out and sent them away … It would be a wonder if they would forgive him when they came back!
"Sigh, this matter is a little difficult. I think I'll have to trouble you to stay there for a few more days. Tell them that I'm fine here, but the house in the Residence of Yun has been completely destroyed. It needs to be rebuilt. Once it's done, I'll bring them home immediately."
The only solution Yun Yang could think of now was to not meet face to face and let Shui Wuyin be the scapegoat. After all, Shui Wuyin was closer to eighth brother. His fiancée and his younger sister would be handled by Shui Wuyin. It was only logical and logical that they would be a perfect match!
"Anyway, it's all in the past now. After a few days, when their anger subsides, we can go and pick them up. It'll be fine."
Yun Yang thought to himself.
Poor Young Master Yun, the young Lord Supreme Cloud, who claimed to know everything in the world, did not understand women at all!
Women were really strange creatures.
No matter what it was, as long as you explained it right after it happened, everything would be fine after a fit of anger, no matter how serious it was.
However, you did not explain it right away but chose to keep it under wraps for a period of time. Then, any matter, even if it was the size of a needle tip, could become a tragic accident that could cause the earth to collapse and the mountains to collapse!
Obviously, Yun Yang had not realized it yet. (Author's Note: I've realized it. That time, it was unbearable to recall. The earth had almost collapsed and the mountains to collapse …)
Therefore, when it was time to pay the price, it was reasonable, within reason, within expectation, and not surprising at all!
Lord Supreme Cloud's ravaging should not be able to escape.
…
Back in the room at the Tower to Heaven Inn.
"Young Master Lei has woken up," Bai Yixue came to report.
"Alright, I'll go take a look."
…
"Brother Yun!" Lei Dongtian's eyes reddened the moment he saw Yun Yang.
"Alright, alright, it's alright now." Yun Yang sat down with a heavy heart. "Brother Lei, I'm very sorry … Old Mu is dead."
"I know, it's good that you're alright …" Lei Dongtian's eyes were rimmed red. "The heavens have taken pity on us, both of us are still alive."
Lei Dongtian had yet to recover from his severe injuries. Having escaped death, he was easily emotional.
"Indeed, the heavens have blessed us. As weak as I am, I've set up special poisons in a few places in the Residence of Yun just in case, betting that the other party would destroy the Residence of Yun. It's probably because Brother Lei caused them to lose their composure when they were in a dangerous situation. They were eager to vent their anger and targeted the Residence of Yun. In the end, it was Venerable Lord Sword who was poisoned. The other party didn't have the antidote, so they had no choice but to compromise. It's just that using such a despicable method to survive … it's really shameful. "
Yun Yang sighed and said with disappointment, "Brother Lei … the Four Seasons Tower is really … really a behemoth. Its reputation is not just for show. I've told you before that the Four Seasons Tower has many capable people, especially the head of the Four Seasons Tower, Mr. Nian. He's a pinnacle expert who can compete with the Unrivaled Expert Ling Xiaozui. Even if you didn't intentionally avoid it, it'd be best if you went back to your family and brought more people with you. However, you didn't listen.
Lei Dongtian lowered his head. "It's really my fault this time …"
"It's really too dangerous this time." Yun Yang sighed deeply. "Although I was lucky enough to force them to retreat with poison, they've also raised conditions. The situation is stronger than the person, I have no choice but to comply."
"What conditions?" Lei Dongtian asked.
"The condition is for me to draw a clear line between you and me. They said it very clearly that their goal is only to deal with you, and not me!" Yun Yang said.
While the hatred in Lei Dongtian's eyes grew stronger, there was also doubt. "Why?"
"I have to talk about one of my protective treasures." Yun Yang was silent for a moment. "Jun Moyan's Medallion of Gratitude, the only one left in this world, is with me."
Lei Dongtian had obviously heard of Jun Moyan's name. He said in a low voice, "I see. Did you agree to it? "
Yun Yang was displeased. "Brother Lei, what kind of person do you think I am? If I had agreed to it, how could Brother Lei still be alive now? "
Lei Dongtian hurriedly apologized, "Brother Yun, it was a slip of the tongue just now. How could I not know that you are righteous? This foolish brother here apologizes solemnly!"
Yun Yang said, "Of course I wouldn't agree to such conditions, but the situation was too critical at that time. I had to compromise. Other than giving them the antidote to Venerable Lord Sword's poison, I also promised them that I won't be involved in your fight in the future. In return, they are not allowed to step into my Residence of Yun, no matter when."
Lei Dongtian's gaze flickered, obviously hearing the huge difference between the two.
"This also means that if you're at a disadvantage when you fight in the future, you can come to my Residence of Yun for shelter." Yun Yang said apologetically, "This is already the best result I can fight for."
Lei Dongtian took a deep breath. "I understand now. It's already commendable to have such an outcome!"
"Sigh, I wanted to persuade them to return your fiancée and bury the hatchet. I even promised them to be your lobbyist, to make the decision on your behalf and not pursue the matter of Old Mu's death or even injuring you, but the Four Seasons Tower refused to agree."
Yun Yang looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother Lei, I suspect that the Four Seasons Tower seems to have a great intention on you. I used Venerable Lord Sword's life as a threat, so there was a lot of leeway. However, I could faintly feel that if I continued to insist, the other party would very likely choose to give up on Venerable Lord Sword and would no longer compromise. Since things can't be done, we can only reach an understanding with the most favorable conditions now!"
Lei Dongtian chuckled. "This is inevitable! They will never agree to it. The benefits I have are too great. In fact, it's already beyond my expectations that they're willing to let me go for now! "
"Brother Lei, rest well here with me. We'll talk about everything after you've recovered."
Yun Yang stood up. "The Residence of Yun is being rebuilt now. When it's done, we'll move back."
Lei Dongtian nodded silently. He thought to himself, "Move back? How can I have the face to move back? The fall of the Residence of Yun is all because of me!
Since the enemy's capability is so great, I have to take action. After a few days, when I can move freely again, I'll return to the family immediately and ask for reinforcements before coming back for revenge! " No matter what, the Four Seasons Tower must be uprooted!
If I don't take revenge, I'm not human.
However, Brother Yun's deep friendship and life-saving grace must be repaid no matter what. For me, he has even destroyed the foundation of his ancestors.
No matter what, I must repay him.
Such a good brother has saved my life again. If I were to sacrifice him as a cauldron in the future, the effect would be unexpectedly ideal!
…
On the other side.
Venerable Lord Sword and the rest had already gone to the outskirts of Tiantang City. They dug out a cave under a mountain to temporarily avoid the wind and snow and recuperate.
With their cultivation base, they could naturally ignore the wind and snow. Of course, Venerable Lord Sword, who was still severely injured, was not included!
He would need at least three days of rest before he could move.
However, it was an undeniable fact that Venerable Lord Sword's cultivation base had been greatly damaged after such a heavy injury.
"I'm still confused after this fight." Venerable Lord Ice scratched his head and said, "Why did we fight? Why did they kill ol 'fifth? "
Venerable Lord Snow said coldly, "The cause was probably a misunderstanding. After ol 'fifth died, the so-called misunderstanding was no longer important."
"It seems like Lei Dongtian didn't say anything about the cause this time. He only asked us from the beginning, where is he? " Where are they? "Venerable Lord Ice asked," Have we captured his men? "
Venerable Lord Frost snorted and said, "Since things have come to this, what's the point of asking about it? Is this the current priority? "
Beside him, a voice filled with misery and hatred rang out, "That's right. Since things have come to this, there's really no need to pursue the cause or the beginning! This hatred is irreconcilable, it won't rest until one of us dies! "
…
