Yun Yang's third finger was only curled halfway, but he scoffed coldly, "Wouldn't it have been better if you had been so f * cking obedient from the start? How old are you now? F * cking playing with my bottom line! I want all of you to vanish in the time it takes for me to close my eyes! "
As he spoke, he had already closed his eyes.
The trio gritted their teeth, but there was nothing they could do. They could only pretend to be angry as they flung their sleeves and walked out in a single file.
When the third person walked to Yun Yang, Yun Yang had just opened his eyes. When their gazes met, Yun Yang was enraged. "What a bastard! I can actually see you when I open my eyes. It looks like you really don't take my words to heart!"
Then, he sent another kick into the air.
The person was struck without any room for resistance. With a cry, he was flung out of the door like a rocket, flying horizontally in the air. After crashing through the window on the opposite side, he flew another three hundred feet before he crashed into a crow's nest on a tree, shattering it into pieces. Only then did he land on his butt in the nest, stuck by a tree branch.
"You?!"
The other two men were enraged, but they only dared to utter the word "you". They could not do anything else.
Yun Yang did not speak. He looked at them with a smile, as if waiting for them to continue, as if he wanted to find fault with them further.
The two of them shuddered, and like stray dogs, they rushed out of the door, looking like stray dogs in the vast expanse of the world.
"See that? It's not quiet now." Yun Yang looked at Shangguan Lingxiu who was dumbfounded.
Shangguan Lingxiu's eyes were wide as saucers as she stared at Yun Yang like she did not know him at all. "What … what are you doing?"
Anyone who knew that Yun Yang was Supreme Cloud would have reacted the same way when they saw the scene. The idol in their hearts, the lover of their dreams, their morals shattered and their worldview destroyed could not be described!
Yun Yang said matter-of-factly, "Of course it's to find a comfortable place for us to drink and talk."
Shangguan Lingxiu was exasperated.
You're still pretending. Do you really think I don't know what your secret is? Unfortunately, I happen to know your true identity. I want to see how long you can continue pretending and to what extent. I'm going to fight it out with you …
She waved her hand, and the guards took the initiative to leave. In the blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the room.
Just as Shangguan Lingxiu was about to speak, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside again. A fragrant aroma wafted into her nostrils; the dishes were already being served. She had no choice but to shut her mouth.
Not long after, more than ten dishes of delicacies were served.
Yun Yang stopped them. "These are more or less enough. I don't fancy your wine. There's no need to embarrass yourself. I've brought my own exquisite brew."
…
Shangguan Lingxiu continued to stare in bewilderment as she watched Yun Yang stretch out his hand and a pot of wine appeared in it, as if he had created it out of thin air.
Lady Lingxiu was shocked once more, focusing her attention on the ring on Yun Yang's finger.
"Sister Lingxiu, the wine I'm treating you to today is no ordinary wine." Yun Yang said like he was presenting a treasure, "This is the wine personally brewed by the God of Wine, Feng Xiange. There aren't many pots left in this world. Let's get drunk today. We won't go home until we're drunk. "
Shangguan Lingxiu's eyes gleamed as she said sweetly, "Very well!"
She did not stand on ceremony, grabbing two large bowls and breaking the clay seals with a loud smack, pouring two full bowls of wine.
Yun Yang's eyebrows twitched as he watched, stunned. It was the first time he had seen a woman drink so freely and so generously, especially when the person in question was a stunning beauty. It was a feast for the eyes, and it was unprecedented.
Once the wine was opened, the aroma of the wine rose into the air. The image of two phoenixes could be vaguely seen in the room, hovering in the air and not dissipating for a long time.
"What a great wine. It actually has such a mystical image accompanying it." Shangguan Lingxiu exclaimed in admiration. She picked up the bowl and smiled, lowering her voice as she spoke through telepathy, "This is a toast to Lord Supreme Cloud! Thank you, Lord Supreme Cloud, for everything you've done for the Empire of Yutang all these years! "
She finished her words in one gulp.
Yun Yang was dumbstruck. He picked up the bowl of wine but it froze in front of his mouth; he was like a statue.
How – how did she know?
After a long time, he forced a smile on his stiff face and said, "Sister Lingxiu, what you're saying …"
Shangguan Lingxiu smiled and said, "Last time, at the Lunar River … I was surprised to find out that you fell asleep."
Yun Yang was hit with a sudden realization and could not help chuckling dryly, "Haha … I see …"
He thought about it and nodded, saying, "I see."
He lifted his head and finished the bowl of wine, shaking his head and chuckling, "I thought that my identity would remain unnoticed. I didn't expect it to be a joke."
Shangguan Lingxiu's expression turned serious as she said, "In this lifetime, I will never speak of this matter. If I break this promise, the entire Shangguan Family of Generals will be in trouble."
Yun Yang nodded when he heard this but did not stop him.
Supreme Cloud's identity was too important. Even though Yun Yang trusted Shangguan Lingxiu, he could not stop this promise. Moreover, Shangguan Lingxiu's promise was directly related to the future of the Shangguan Family of Generals. Her sincerity was evident!
Shangguan Lingxiu raised her second bowl of wine and said, "Now, Young Master Yun, can Young Brother Yun explain today's actions? Even though I am well aware of the reason behind it, it still makes me quite depressed. "
Yun Yang laughed and said, "Sister Lingxiu, you think too highly of Yun Yang. Yun Yang is still Yun Yang most of the time. What happened today is really just a coincidence."
He smiled and said, "The so-called coincidence … the two of us drinking together here is truly a coincidence. As for the third prince's trouble, it's what I've been waiting for. "
"I see."
"I went to the Residence of Crown Prince earlier for another matter. Now, it's because of what the third prince did some time ago. He forcefully recruited a few crippled generals from the military to build a Hall of the Handicapped in his residence. The external purpose is to show his benevolence of comforting the disabled soldiers and rescuing the families of those in distress. "
"Objectively speaking, it's a good thing. Even if he has ulterior motives, I'll turn a blind eye as long as he's willing to fork out gold and silver to carry out these things. I won't force everyone to be truly benevolent and ask for nothing in return … However, after he built the Hall of the Handicapped and gained fame, he didn't fulfill any of his promises."
"He even used the name of the disabled soldiers to deceive the Board of War, trying to gain the favor and support of the military bosses with all sorts of flowery words."
Shangguan Lingxiu asked in confusion, "Which one of the bosses is muddle-headed? He wants to use the name to gather his forces without doing anything. How can he hide it from them? "
Yun Yang chuckled humorlessly. "The third prince isn't a fool either. He already has a countermeasure. In fact, he did fork out a lot of silver taels to carry out relief work, but the main reason why I say that he didn't fork out any silver taels is that before the relief work, he first sent men to rob the families of the disabled soldiers … Of course, the robbery was made up to look like it was done by gangsters … Then, he sent men to deliver silver taels to the poor … Naturally, they would be grateful, even more grateful. "
Shangguan Lingxiu was so angry that she could barely breathe. Her eyes were wide open. "There's actually such a thing? I didn't expect the third prince to be so insane! "
"There's really such a thing!"
Yun Yang sighed as well. "A prince wants to build a memorial but is reluctant to spend money. Of course, I can't stand it. If I can't stand it, I'll beat it up! … "
