In the nick of time!
A smile hung on Yun Yang's face.
A saber.
Unbeknownst to him, it had already appeared in front of Yun Yang's neck, blocking with the saber.
Clang!
The assassin's move was the same, the tip of his sword colliding violently against the saber's blade. However, he was shocked to realize that when his sword came into contact with the saber's blade, the tip of the sword, which was forged from the mystical steel of the seabed, was like snow coming into contact with a red-hot piece of metal.
It was pulverized immediately!
The tip of the sword was pulverized, followed by the blade's body.
Such a strange phenomenon shocked him to the core.
How could this be?
At this moment, a white shadow flashed past. On the ground, the three kittens that looked harmless and could only be held as pets had leaped up at the same time.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Three clangs!
The assassin groaned in pain. There were three scratches on his thigh, from the base of his thigh all the way to his calf, and blood flowed out like a fountain. There were three scratches on his back, and his bones were almost broken. His right hand, which was holding the sword, was actually clawed through by one of the kittens, and a large piece of flesh was torn off!
What kind of cat is this?
Is this still a f * cking cat?
I'm a fifth heaven pinnacle expert, my skin is as tough as steel. How can these kittens …
However, he did not have the time to ponder this question.
Right now, escaping was the most important thing.
He had fallen into a trap!
The assassin roared. Without caring about anything else, he spun his body and made an unbelievable turn in the air. Half of the sword flew out of his hand. Then, he floated in the air and landed on the tree.
His reaction speed was so fast that it dazzled everyone's eyes.
He stamped his feet on the tree trunk, and his whole body flew up as if he was flying. With a wave of his left hand, a colorless thread flew out.
As long as he exerted a little more strength, even the gods would not be able to stop him!
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt his vision darken. A burly figure suddenly stood in front of him. With a release of his grip, the thread that had been shot out appeared in this person's hand.
Fang Mofei!
"Go down!" Fang Mofei's palm condensed the air within thirty feet of him into a huge metal plate and slammed it down.
"Wow!"
The assassin spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and the sound of his bones cracking could be heard all over his body. It was as if he had lost all his bones, and he fell limply to the ground. Blood spurted wildly in the air, and his entire body sprayed out like a rainbow. Under Fang Mofei's palm, which far exceeded his abilities, he had completely lost the ability to resist.
He laid face up on the ground, twitching continuously. His eyes, however, were filled with endless viciousness. His throat gurgled as he struggled to say, "What a great trap!"
"Shut up!" Yun Yang was taken aback. With a flick of his arm, a flash of light shot out like a bolt of lightning into the assassin's mouth, piercing through his head and pinning him to the ground.
At the same time, Fang Mofei bellowed angrily as his long sword flew out at lightning speed towards the same spot!
However, Yun Yang's Divine Edge had already pierced in; Fang Mofei's sword was right on top of the Divine Edge. Plop plop plop plop …
Fang Mofei felt a sharp pain in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, only the hilt of his sword was left!
The distance from the tip of the sword to the body of the sword disappeared like snow and water. It did not disappear, it had turned into a puddle of silvery powder!
"That was close!" Yun Yang exclaimed in relief.
With a wave of his hand, the Divine Edge flew back into Yun Yang's palm. With a flip of his hand, it disappeared.
"If I hadn't noticed his shut up, I'm afraid … this Corpse Explosion would've been …" Yun Yang was relieved.
Fang Mofei nodded in a daze, still staring at his sword hilt. What was going on?
The 'trap' within the trap was a half-opened mouth, but when the assassin spoke, his mouth was shut. Yun Yang instinctively felt that something was amiss and acted immediately.
A small black bead rolled out from the assassin's mouth. It was the root of his tooth that had been sliced off by the Divine Edge.
Fang Mofei flipped it over and sucked in a breath of cold air.
Corpse Explosion Pill!
This was an extremely venomous item, hidden in the mouth and protected by a crystal coat. If one were to die, one only needed to bite through it and the Corpse Explosion Pill's poison would spread throughout the entire body. Then, the person would die instantly as the corpse would be soaked in poison and explode.
Each piece of flesh, no matter where it landed, would produce poison that would not dissipate for years. If any drop of blood landed on a person, the person would rot and die instantly!
It was the most venomous thing in this world.
"It's indeed The Merciless Tower's handiwork!" Fang Mofei looked at Yun Yang with a complicated expression. "Only The Merciless Tower's Gold-ranked assassins and above are equipped with the Corpse Explosion Pill. I really don't know … "
He swallowed the rest of his words.
"I really don't know how you managed to provoke The Merciless Tower after causing so much trouble in Tiantang City …" Yun Yang was indeed confused.
Yun Yang was a little dumbfounded. "When … when did I provoke The Merciless Tower? Did someone hire a killer to kill me?"
…
"Get rid of the corpse quickly and rest …" Yun Yang looked at Fang Mofei strangely. "What are you waiting for?"
"My … my sword …" Fang Mofei looked at the hilt of his own sword, only then did he start to panic. "My jade sword …"
The corners of Yun Yang's lips twitched. "Fealty Jade Sword … this is your jade sword?"
Fang Mofei wanted to cry but no tears came out.
Fealty Jade Sword Fang Mofei had a great reputation in the martial arts world. However, ever since he had pledged his allegiance to Yun Yang, his jade sword had been destroyed inexplicably the only time he had drawn his sword.
Yun Yang was in disbelief as well. "You … Old Fang, you're really something. You've made such a name for yourself in the martial arts world with something that's not even as hard as tofu. I can't help but admire you …"
Not even as hard as tofu …
Fang Mofei felt an itch at the base of his teeth as he gritted them and said, "This is mystical jade from the bottom of the sea, a land of extreme frost. Thousands of feet below, mystical jade's Ice Heart Chalcedony, Skyheart Iron Jade, Stellar Steel Essence, took ten years to forge this sword!"
In other words, it was much harder than tofu!
"Oh …"
Yun Yang hummed in acknowledgment and walked back.
Fang Mofei was still confused. "Young master, what … what is that sword of yours made of? How could it …"
With a swoosh, Yun Yang flashed the Divine Edge. "Look closely! This is a saber! Old Fang, I have to say something about you. You've roamed the martial arts world for so many years, yet you can't even tell the difference between a saber and a sword? "
Fang Mofei's eyes widened.
Yun Yang had already turned to leave. "It's just a sword … it's worth the heartache. I'll give you three hundred gold taels tomorrow. Go buy yourself a divine weapon first …"
Fang Mofei was about to faint.
Isn't it just a sword?
That's the weapon that made me famous!
Also, is three hundred gold taels a lot? Go buy a divine weapon? I can't even buy the rust on a divine weapon's hilt!
Fang Mofei made a tragic decision. He would buy an ordinary sword the next morning to use first thing in the morning. However, there was still endless doubt in his heart. How could there be such a saber in this world?
Yun Yang returned to his room.
Drawing three names in the air with his fingers, he tilted his head and pondered for a while.
These three names were the people he thought would hire assassins to kill him. Of course, they were … until now.
Yun Yang enjoyed his meal, even though it was already midnight.
However, he was hungry.
What made Yun Yang feel very satisfied was that he had only eaten eleven catties of mystical beast meat, three big steamed buns and two meat pies, but he already felt extremely full.
Of course, he also drank a bowl of soup.
"My appetite has decreased …" Yun Yang was pleased.
If this continued, it would not take more than a month for him to recover to a normal person's standard.
Yun Yang really did not want to eat too much. It was too different …
After the joy, Yun Yang began to think, "Who should I find trouble with tomorrow?"
The faint sound of a horn from afar caused Yun Yang's expression to sink into a grave expression.
The war was about to begin.
The army would depart in no more than three days.
Yun Yang had spent the entire day and night forcefully making himself happy, forcefully making himself domineering, forcefully blackmailing and threatening, forcefully adjusting himself to search for clues about the Four Seasons Tower, forcefully telling himself that he was only doing this for revenge! He did not care about anything else! …
However, in the end, he realized that all his efforts had been crushed by the sound of a horn from afar.
War.
That was the battlefield of the Nine Supremes.
My brothers aren't here anymore, so I don't care?
Yun Yang stood up and looked at the night sky outside the window, breathing deeply.
In his mind, he heard the voices of his eight brothers speaking in a low voice.
"Yutang's blood, Yutang's soul; Yutang's men, Yutang's army!"
Before him, the eyes of eight brothers seemed to be staring at him, saying, "National vendetta or personal grudge, ol 'ninth, which side do you care about first?"
"Don't force me!" Yun Yang closed his eyes and murmured, "I'm not a saint!"
"I don't have the power to turn the tide either!"
"I don't want to fight with my life on the line just to protect a bunch of people who want to kill me with everything they have!"
"I don't want to fight with my life on the line and let these people bully my family after I die."
"I don't want to die in battle and let my brothers be wronged."
"I don't want to, I don't want to, I don't want to … I'm really not a saint!"
Yun Yang kept repeating this to himself.
However, in the end, he slammed his head on the table and moaned in agony.
"Tomorrow at noon, I shall enter the Residence of Supremes!"
Finally, it was time to face everything. Finally, he still had to face the bloody cruelty, he still had to unravel the scar in his heart!
"I don't want to!
I want to go after I take my revenge. "
Yun Yang laid on the table quietly, as if he had fallen asleep, not moving at all. However, he had not slept at all.
He had been lying there the entire time.
He was only waiting for dawn to come.
He could feel that there were eight pairs of eyes looking at him tenderly; there were warm smiles in their gazes, as well as a soaring desire to fight.
"Ol 'ninth, we are Yutang's Nine Supremes. First there was Yutang, then the Nine Supremes. Not for the world, but for the people. First avenge the nation, then avenge the family. Yun Yang's body is the soul of the Nine Supremes! "
"Ol 'ninth, go. For the sake of our homeland, for the sake of not being bullied … "
…
Dawn.
Lao Mei and Fang Mofei had woken up to cultivate facing the morning sun, but why was it so quiet today?
If it had been in the past, their young master would have already come out to exercise, absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth, and pluck the essence of dawn. Why was there no movement at all today?
Both of them exchanged glances.
Fang Mofei shook his head.
Lao Mei sighed and walked to Yun Yang's door, knocking lightly.
There was no response.
Tilting his head to listen, his expression changed immediately. With a push of his shoulder, he pushed the door open and rushed in.
There was no one in Yun Yang's room.
There was a note on the table.
"I'm fine, I'll be back late."
Young master, where did you go?
