"It's already too many for the Nine Supremes to drink the Nine Supremes Tea once, so there's really no need for the tea farmer to exist anymore. Since the tea farmer is destined to cease to exist, no one can make the Nine Supremes Tea anymore. Is this what you mean, sir? "
He sighed with melancholy. "Speaking of which, this tea farmer has really put in a lot of effort. Years of hard work has been consumed in a single gulp, and it's no longer of use … It's really hopeless. I can't help but think of the servants of a wealthy family … They've spent so much effort to flatter their master, but they're not pleased. It's a tragedy to live to this point. "
Mr. Nian shook his head with a smile. "I've tested you. I can't anger you."
"Likewise. I'm sincerely impressed by your strong composure, Mr. Nian," said Yun Yang.
"If so, let's get straight to the point. I've been beating around the bush too much in this life. I prefer to be straightforward instead. "
"I've never liked to beat around the bush," said Yun Yang.
Ji Lingxi was dumbfounded as she listened.
'Both of you have been beating around the bush, scolding each other until your mouths are dry and I'm confused, but now you're saying in unison that you don't like to beat around the bush …'
'I'm impressed by the thickness of your skin.'
'If you're so thick-skinned, you might as well go straight to heaven!'
The aroma of tea wafted in the air. Both of them sat facing each other from afar, a faint smile on their faces, their demeanor relaxed and dignified.
If Ji Lingxi did not know that there was an unresolvable blood feud between them, she would have thought that they were actually a pair of best friends who were leisurely chatting over tea.
"The Four Seasons Tower is detached from worldly affairs. For thousands of years, it's been known as the top in the world, peerless." Yun Yang said, "In fact, before the last time at Tianxuan Cliff, us Nine Supremes brothers had heard of the Four Seasons Tower. We even respected and admired it. At least, compared to the so-called School of Kismet State, it was a far cry."
"To us at that time, the Four Seasons Tower's renowned and domineering Tianxuan's martial power was our dream."
Yun Yang sighed softly. "But … we never expected it. It was actually the Four Seasons Tower who had set up a death trap for us. Even until now, when I've dug out almost everyone in the Four Seasons Tower, I still don't know what the reason is that has caused our stance to be so firm and resolute! "
He raised his head to look at Mr. Nian and asked with a smile, "I wonder if Mr. Nian can clear up my doubts?"
Mr. Nian's expression did not change. He gently blew at the foam on his tea and said, "Do you have any other questions, Lord Supreme Cloud? Why don't you ask them all at once? I will do my best to answer them."
"Of course there are. When I escaped death that day, I started to take revenge. Ever since I took my revenge, I felt that I had to be careful with every step I took. Every time I thought about it, I was careful and meticulous. When I finally found the Four Seasons Tower's men from the sea of people, I was also worried that the Four Seasons Tower's retaliation would come at any time while I was happy and proud."
"However, I have yet to see the Four Seasons Tower's Supreme Lord Spring Frost taking his revenge in the truest sense."
"Although the Four Seasons Tower has sent out a lot of men from the lowest to the highest ranks in the process of my targeting of the Four Seasons Tower's forces, the Four Seasons Tower has sent out a lot of manpower. When it comes to being a threat to me, it's completely out of the question. It's also because of this that the doubts in my heart grew. "
Yun Yang said, "Later on, I had a feeling that other than those people who were captured by me in the beginning … those who came to the Five Venerable Lords were actually released by the Four Seasons Tower's higher-ups for me to kill."
"This feeling was even more obvious when it came to the civil and martial ministers. As for Xia, Qiu, and Dong … it could be said that they had given me the name list directly. Although it was faked by Wu Ying, it was still illogical. The Four Seasons Tower has been renowned in Tianxuan for countless years. How could they have overlooked this? "
"May I ask why?" Yun Yang asked faintly.
Mr. Nian smiled faintly as he poured tea, not saying a word.
"First, you sowed an eternal grudge with us, the Nine Supremes, and then you sent the Four Seasons Tower's men, from the lowest to the highest, to my blade so that I could eliminate them one by one. Such self-destruction is baffling."
Yun Yang said, "I believe that you're not out of your mind. You must have some other important purpose! However, what I'm most helpless about now is that even though I know that you have an important purpose, I still can't let go of the people you've sent to me. I can only kill them one by one! However, with each person I kill, I feel that I'm one step closer to your ultimate goal. Your method of killing with a borrowed knife is truly impressive, but it's also infuriating at the same time! "
"Today, we've agreed to a final battle. Since the final battle is imminent, it's time for these mysteries to be uncovered."
Yun Yang said, "I'm ashamed. I've always prided myself on my unparalleled wisdom and foresight, but I still haven't figured out the crux of the matter. Please enlighten me. "
Mr. Nian exhaled softly and said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad at all. There's indeed another reason for these things. Supreme Cloud's judgment of this tower's capability, purpose, and even self-awareness are extremely accurate. Supreme Cloud's reputation is well-deserved. The fundamental reason is beyond the realm of common sense. It's reasonable that Lord Supreme Cloud can't think of it and can't figure it out. It's expected!"
He looked at Yun Yang with a smile. "Other than that? Is there anything else you'd like to ask? "
Yun Yang smiled. "These two questions are enough. Next, it's time for you to ask. "
Mr. Nian said, "That's right. I have a few questions to ask Supreme Cloud as well. What I'm most curious about is the Residence of Nine Supremes' secret and how you managed to keep your identity a secret. If it weren't for the School of Kismet State's unexpected intervention, I'm afraid I'd still be in the dark. I wouldn't have known that Lord Supreme Cloud's true self has long been exposed to the world and that you've had many dealings with my tower's people. "
He chuckled and said, "Just like what Lord Supreme Cloud has said, after today's battle, either the Four Seasons Tower will vanish from the martial world forever, or Lord Supreme Cloud will rest eternally in the ground. At this point, there's really no secret that can't be shared."
Yun Yang said, "I'd like to hear the details."
Mr. Nian smiled. "It looks like Lord Supreme Cloud wants me to speak first."
Yun Yang replied faintly, "Because I'm the one who asked first. It's only right that I get the answer first!"
Mr. Nian guffawed, not at all offended by Yun Yang's words.
He was silent for a moment, as if he was arranging his thoughts. After a long while, he looked at the lingering aroma of tea and spoke slowly, "The Four Seasons Tower has been passed down for so many years, but this is the first time it's been forced into such a perilous situation. Although I've done all of this on purpose, it can also be considered as heaven's will. Or perhaps, heaven's will and man's cooperation. "
"The root of the matter will probably start from when I obtained the Four Seasons Tower's legacy."
"There's yin and yang in the sky, and the four seasons in a year." Mr. Nian said, "I was eighteen years old that year. I was one of the five supreme disciples of the Four Seasons Tower. "
Yun Yang thought to himself, 'The Four Seasons Tower is truly an oddity … They actually have as many as five supreme disciples!'
