Listening up to this point, Yun Yang had already formed a relatively clear clue in his heart. Although the Four Seasons Tower had won the war against the Concourse of the Underworld, Venerable Lord Ice had been severely injured in the battle and had been taken away by his own people. Venerable Lord Ice had thought that what awaited him was rescue, but he had not expected to be met with a nightmare. The reality was that the Four Seasons Tower's reinforcements had confirmed that Venerable Lord Ice was dead and had decided to refine his soul to extract the Bone of Ice God that was being nurtured in his body.
Venerable Lord Ice was unwilling to be killed, so he had retaliated with all his remaining strength. With the help of two of his brothers, he had managed to escape with his broken body.
In spite of this, a moment of luck could not change the dire situation. The Four Seasons Tower's pursuit would never stop; it was destined to be relentless.
Venerable Lord Ice understood this. At the same time, due to the guilt he felt towards his son, he had decided to bring the last part of his life to Tiantang City as a matter of course.
As for the fact that Yun Yang had accidentally stumbled upon it, it was actually a stroke of luck that made the situation even more complicated.
However, perhaps it was because of Yun Yang's accidental intervention that Venerable Lord Ice had other thoughts in this desperate situation. Just like what Venerable Lord Ice thought, he had given everything for the Four Seasons Tower, even sacrificing his son's entire family. Yet, he was still treated as a sacrificial pawn. It was only natural that he was inexplicably furious. Before this, he had been utterly disheartened, knowing how powerful and terrifying the Four Seasons Tower was. Even if he wanted to, he could not retaliate. However, Yun Yang's unexpected appearance and the sudden change in their stances had extended to this moment of submission due to 'threats', revealing the Four Seasons Tower's biggest secret.
Yun Yang sighed. A ruthless character like Venerable Lord Ice would not give in so easily. What he had said was limited to what he wanted to say. Even if Yun Yang had not threatened him, the other party would have said it anyway. Conversely, if he did not want to say it, it would be meaningless no matter how Yun Yang threatened or oppressed him!
Now that the train of thought had been cleared, the most important question was – was what Venerable Lord Ice had said true or false?
Yun Yang analyzed carefully and finally came to the conclusion that what Venerable Lord Ice had said seemed to be more than ninety percent true.
In spite of this, it also proved that the Four Seasons Tower's strength had no limits.
Even a powerful cultivator like Venerable Lord Ice was only a very, very small part of them. They were existences that could be abandoned at any time. Their true abilities were truly astounding and unimaginable!
Yun Yang's heart grew colder with such an unexpected gain.
This place had nothing to do with Yue Rulan.
Where had Yue Rulan gone?
After a few days of delay … what would happen?
Yun Yang dared not even think about it.
"What you know now is equivalent to knowing the Four Seasons Tower's biggest secret. In the future, following this direction, he would naturally be able to learn more things. In fact, it's something we don't even know about … "
Venerable Lord Ice said bleakly, "I know you want to know more about the location of the Four Seasons Tower's headquarters and the location of each operation, but these … even us brothers don't know about them."
"Come to think of it, it's a waste for us to call ourselves experienced in the martial world. Ever since we became the Four Seasons Tower's Venerable Lords, more than ninety-nine percent of our time has been spent in the Venerable Lord's Hall, waiting for orders or practicing martial arts … I've thought that our destination would be to dominate an area, to be like a governor … I've never thought that we're just pitiful creatures who don't even have the right to enter the headquarters!"
Yun Yang was silent.
Indeed, the lives of Venerable Lord Ice, Venerable Lord Sword, and Venerable Lord Saber were tragic enough.
They thought that their positions were high and mighty, only below the Four Seasons Tower's master, Mr. Nian, and that their futures were bright and promising. Immortality was only a matter of course. Little did they know that everything was just a trick and a use. However, they had abandoned their wives and children to join the martial world for this temptation and this beautiful future, pledging their lifelong loyalty to the Four Seasons Tower. In the end, not only themselves, even their families and everything else had been sacrificed.
In the end, it was only until the end of their lives that they realized the truth. What they had done in their lives was only to be used by others. That was all!
Even if they had discovered the truth, it was too late. There was no turning back.
They were all alone in this world!
Their wives, their sons, their families … they had all been destroyed by their own hands!
It was too late!
Such a tragedy was the accumulation of the world's greatest tragedy!
What was even more tragic was that Venerable Lord Ice no longer had the strength to avenge himself. There was nothing he could do, he could only passively accept this fate!
It was even more tragic than that!
Yun Yang sighed. Looking at Venerable Lord Ice's body that was shaking in the snow, his initial hatred had long dissipated. He said in a low voice, "Before Marshal Yang died, I asked him, 'Who is your father?' Where was he? But Marshal Yang only said one sentence. "
Venerable Lord Ice took a step forward, agitated as he asked in a trembling voice, "What did Tao'er say?"
Yun Yang closed his eyes and said faintly, "He said that no matter how wrong he was and how sinful he was, he was still my biological father! I can't betray him! "
"Tao'er!"
Venerable Lord Ice shuddered when he heard Yun Yang's words. His pale face turned even paler as he let out a heart-wrenching cry. A mouthful of blood was spat thirty feet away!
No matter how wrong he was and how sinful he was, he was still my biological father!
I can't betray him!
These were his son's last words to him!
Was this his last act of filial piety?
To him, as a father, what right did he have to enjoy his son's last act of filial piety?
"What right do I have to be your father?" Venerable Lord Ice fell into a state of utter confusion when he heard the last words.
Yang Botao's last words were like a red-hot, sharp steel knife, stabbing straight into the softest part of his body and soul!
It was like a thunderbolt had struck him, breaking his insides!
Yun Yang sighed softly and said, "Is that the cenotaph you've built for Marshal Yang?"
Venerable Lord Ice was filled with remorse when he heard Yun Yang's words, his hands shaking as he sobbed. "I'm such an incompetent father, how could I have the bliss to build a cenotaph for my son? These are the silver, banknotes, and gold that Tao'er gave me when he urged me to leave …"
He bawled loudly, completely deranged, leaving only a string of cries, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! … "
Yun Yang's ears twitched slightly. Someone else was about to arrive.
Amidst the snowstorm, human voices could be heard faintly from a distance away.
However, the direction of the newcomers was obviously coming towards them. Listening to the sound of fluttering robes, not only were the newcomers skilled, it seemed like there were quite a number of them!
An orderly lineup of experts was about to arrive!
Venerable Lord Ice, on the other hand, was in a state of confusion. He was hugging the cenotaph and sobbing, motionless.
Yun Yang frowned and reminded him faintly, "Someone's coming!"
Venerable Lord Ice was still bawling, as if he had not heard what Yun Yang had said.
Yun Yang spoke again faintly, "Before Yang Botao died, his wife had made arrangements to send their youngest son away."
Venerable Lord Ice was already in a state of confusion.
However, Yun Yang could not allow him to continue this! Absolutely not!
Venerable Lord Ice, who had completely fallen into a state of confusion, was jolted awake. He lifted his head abruptly to stare at Yun Yang and said in disbelief, "What did you say? What did you say … "
…
"Recommend a book." "The Banshee's Manager". The spiritual meridians have been revived and the banshees have awakened. A young man has become the new generation of banshee's manager … How does he manage? Could it be the Rule of Stealth # 5?
