After a long, long time, Yun Yang put away the items left behind by Ouyang Xiaoshe, but the two pieces of the treasure map were not placed together. He took Old Dugu's piece of paper and sniffed it greedily. He said softly, "Father, don't worry. Haven't I already gotten back what belongs to us?!"
He did not linger any longer. With a long howl, he punched a hole in the ground with his palm and buried Ouyang Xiaoshe's body deep within.
Then, he waved his hands again and again. In an instant, the sky was filled with dark clouds. The dark clouds became thicker and thicker. With a sudden clap of thunder, torrential rain began to fall.
It landed on the ground that had already been burnt red …
The rain continued to fall. The weather was still cold, so there should not have been such a downpour, nor should there have been thunder and lightning. However, under Yun Yang's control, the rain fell just like that.
"I was the one who burned and destroyed this place. No matter what, I have to make up for it."
The rain continued to fall, restoring the vitality of this place as much as possible …
Yun Yang's silhouette had long disappeared into the rain.
…
On the horizon, there was a clear distinction between the sun and the rain. On one side, it was raining cats and dogs, while on the other, it was dawn, with no clouds in sight.
A dense purple mist rose from the horizon, and a red sun was about to leap out of the ground and appear in the mortal world again.
Yun Yang was dressed in his usual purple robes, strolling leisurely on Tiantang City's Tongtian Street. He was like a celestial being who had descended from the heavens with purple mist gushing out from the east, and his expression was unusually calm.
Yun Yang seemed to be moving slowly, but he was actually moving swiftly as he quietly entered a pawnshop on the main street of the city.
Inside the pawnshop, Shui Wuyin, who was dressed like a shopkeeper, raised his head and met Yun Yang's gaze. He then lowered his head and did not make a sound. It was the two workers beside him who came forward to greet him.
"Do you have any good stuff like that over here? Take it out and have a look. The price isn't a problem, "Yun Yang said with his hands behind his back.
"Damn good stuff? That's a fortuitous encounter that can only be chanced upon and not sought! " Shui Wuyin raised his head. "We really don't have it now. Since it's a good thing, there's no reason for it to die so easily. But if young master needs it, we can keep it for you in the future."
Yun Yang snorted and said, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by luck but not by seeking? This Young Master has plenty of money. Why would I be afraid of not being able to buy good things? Things that don't open my eyes! "
His tone was displeased, and he turned around to leave unhappily.
Shui Wuyin waited for a while before standing up. "You guys look after the shop. I'm going back to sleep. I'm sleepy."
Shui Wuyin issued an order after the first unit arrived at a secret location.
"There's an order from the higher-ups. There's no need to stay!"
…
At this time, the killers in the Dongcheng District were almost at the end of their rope.
There were originally tens of thousands of famous killers in the Jianghu, but now, there were less than seven thousand left. Seventy to eighty percent of them had died.
Although the so-called Grand Alliance of Assassins had not completely disappeared, it was only in name, and everyone was in a state of panic.
On the other hand, the Jianghu heroes who were trapped outside still surrounded the area so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through. They defended like an iron wall, but everyone's eyes were shining brightly. They were all calculating in their hearts. Now that the situation was clear, their side's victory was already a foregone conclusion. However, in this battle, would they be able to achieve anything in the end? This was a very real problem!
Some of the quick-witted ones had already begun to contact others, forming cliques and forming alliances.
At the center of the Dongcheng District's central area, Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan, the two top leaders of the assassin organizations, had gathered the thirty or so people with the highest cultivation base in the Grand Alliance of Assassins.
"How is it?"
"Almost."
Both of their gazes met, noticing the chilling glint in each other's eyes.
It was almost time!
Once the time was right, the two of them would lead the thirty to forty people and charge out together. They would be able to carve out a path of blood, perhaps without much effort.
During this period of stalemate, were Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan really unable to leave?
No, it was more that they did not want to leave!
Ouyang Xiaoshe had so many tricks that even the martial artists could think of, how could these two top-notch assassins not have thought of it?
If it were only the two of them, they would have left long ago. Even Yun Yang would not be able to guard against them!
Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan were not ordinary characters. Even the most conservative way of putting it was to say that they were ruthless characters of a formidable character. Since the moment the dragon hide treasure map had been revealed, they had begun their ploy, borrowing Yun Yang's ploy to launch their own ambush!
The initial agreement of the Alliance of Assassins was a hindrance to them, but it was not as if there was no room for evasion. However, their ploy required killing as well. Amidst the bloodbath, the turning point that they desired would be born, the timing that they desired!
Both sides of the battle were constantly losing people.
The martial artists were losing their men and were being drained; Hong Zhan and Hen Bieli were being drained and killed as well.
They were rapidly reducing the number of assassins on their side.
Although the tens of thousands of assassins on the side of the assassins were known to be world-renowned, there were not many true experts among them. Furthermore, even if these experts were forced to stay here, they might not be of one mind with the two men.
What Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan needed, or perhaps their fundamental goal, was to eliminate these people or slowly change them.
Only by accomplishing this goal could they build the elite team that they truly desired, one that was much stronger than the most elite members of the two top assassin organizations.
Up until now, the Alliance of Assassins was truly in the midst of a great wave washing away the sand in this battle of the century.
Those with a low cultivation base had died long ago; those who were unlucky had perished long ago as well. Those who could survive in the end not only had a high cultivation base, but they were also blessed with great luck!
In the martial world, luck was the most important word. Most of the time, it was even more crucial than a profound cultivation base!
Some people could always have a fortuitous encounter, turning misfortune into fortune even when they met with misfortune. However, some people, despite having a profound cultivation base, died the moment they emerged!
Needless to say, this was the work of luck – it was inexplicably domineering!
Since the beginning of time, only those who possessed such luck could walk to the pinnacle. Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou were like this, including the two assassin leaders themselves.
Those who were lucky had always walked further and more steadily than those who were more capable.
So what if one had the best potential in the world? If one was killed the moment one made a name for oneself in the martial world, it would be useless no matter how good one's potential was!
It was especially so for Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan, thinking that they were going to obtain the treasure and achieve great things in the future, so they especially needed such lucky people. It did not matter if one was unlucky, but it would not be good if one was a burden to them …
Through this period of continuous fighting, these top-notch assassins had indeed been forged a second time, compressing them into a solid block.
As for the timing that Hen Bieli and Hong Zhan were waiting for, it was to wait for the assassins outside to die out. Then, they could break out of the encirclement easily.
First of all, these people were a small target, making it easy to escape.
Secondly, they had been fighting as hard as they had promised in the heavenly oath that day. They had been fighting and staying here, persisting until now. They had not gone anywhere. When had they ever broken the oath?
Now, the others had died because of their lack of ability and bad luck. They were the only ones who were still alive. What else could they do? Of course, they had to strive for survival and fight elsewhere … Wasn't this the right thing to do?
"Gold can only be seen after panning the yellow sand." Hen Bieli was very pleased, extremely pleased with his plan.
There were still more than seven thousand people left. If they could hold on for another two days, these seven thousand people could probably be reduced to three thousand, or even two thousand. When that time came, they would organize a breakout. Other than themselves, the rest of the people would basically be wiped out.
Then, naturally, they would leave in a group.
The two assassin leaders' calculations could be said to be well-planned. The layout within the layout could be said to be exquisite.
However, things did not always go according to one's wishes.
The sky had just brightened. The first rays of the morning sun had just leaped over the horizon. Rays of sunlight had just sprinkled onto the earth.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from outside. Then, loud shouts and screams could be heard from the outside, one after another.
"It's time for the final attack. Those assassins don't have much strength left. Everyone, charge in!"
"Charge!"
"I'll go in first! The dragon hide treasure map is mine! "
"Why should you go in first? I'll go in first! "
There was another loud bang. From the east, dozens of people had already swarmed in. They pushed their way in, leveling all the buildings in front of them. Everything that obstructed their line of sight was flattened.
Faced with the sudden change, the assassins stood up in shock. Disbelief was written all over their faces.
It was clearly not the time yet. Judging by the situation these few days, it was normal for there to be another half a month's buffer. Why would they launch the final attack now?
'Are you guys no longer afraid? What makes you think that you can wipe us out in one fell swoop? '
Once one side made a move, the other side naturally did not want to be outdone. When someone shouted 'charge', many of them rushed out without a second thought. Following that, more people rushed in, muddle-headed.
It had always been human nature to follow the crowd blindly, so there was nothing to be surprised about!
Then, those who were more experienced and prudent gradually lost their composure when they heard the sounds of killing getting more and more intense. They rushed in and joined the fray.
By the time those with particularly high cultivation base and patience had also rushed in, the situation had become uncontrollable and difficult to stop.
It was noisy in all directions as countless people streamed in.
They had no choice but to rush in.
'If I don't go in, how am I going to get the treasure map? '
Driven by the same thought, the entire east side of the city was plunged into an atmosphere of deafening battle cries.
The other three sides of Tiantang City were bathed in sunlight; only the east side of the city was shrouded in billowing smoke and dust; one could not even see their own fingers.
The final battle had begun in advance under the guidance and impetus of some people with ulterior motives.
…
On one side, the battle was in full swing, but on the other side, it was calm.
In a tavern outside the east side of the city.
The ten Yama Kings of the Senluo Court were all gathered here, each with a cup of tea in front of them. They looked bored.
Silhouettes flashed as Yun Xiaoyao, Fang Mofei, and the rest entered.
…
"The brother who won the prize yesterday is heaven and earth; congratulations." Today's prize was two words, very, very large words.
Some people said that there was no place in life that was not a martial world. Therefore, the two words' martial world 'were specially written. I hope that everyone will pay attention to their own martial world in life, and that they will conquer their own martial world.
I am in a bad mood today.
