Yang Long lay paralyzed on the ground, unable to believe the scene in front of him. At this moment, he finally understood why Ye Tianze was waiting in the cave.
He wasn't trying to avoid those assassins at all. He was waiting for those assassins to come knocking on his door and then deal with them all together.
Others would avoid him like the plague, but the person in front of him did the exact opposite. That kind of domineering personality made people tremble in fear.
When Ye Tianze turned around, he suddenly remembered the words of the golden-masked assassin.
"You … You. You are Night?" Yang Long asked while trembling with fear.
Almost everyone in the Celestial Dragon Nation knew about the famous Night, and for this reason, the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Land did not hesitate to start a war with Acheron.
"Yes." Ye Tianze said.
"Then..." Then … "Yang Long looked at him and was speechless.
He really didn't expect that the youth in front of him was really Night. That feeling was like a pie falling from the sky, and it just so happened to hit him on the head.
Originally, he only had less than fifty percent confidence that he would successfully become the king of the Celestial Dragon Nation, but now it was different.
Not to mention Night's strength, just the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Land behind him was enough to increase his chances of winning by at least thirty percent.
"Weren't you … Weren't you kidnapped by Acheron's men?" Yang Long swallowed his saliva.
"Didn't you almost die in the hands of the Divine Dragon Sword Sect?" Ye Tianze asked back, "Don't worry about who I am, our agreement hasn't changed. Also, you must keep it a secret for me. I won't allow you to leak my identity, and before that, you are not allowed to tell anyone, or else!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I will keep it a secret." Of course, Yang Long would not refuse, nor would he ask why.
In the beginning, he was very resistant to Ye Tianze, but now it was different. Their identities and positions had been completely reversed.
Even if he became the king of the Celestial Dragon Nation, he might not be able to reach into the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Land.
And a genius like Night, sooner or later, would be an existence that the entire Celestial Dragon Nation would look up to.
"Oh right, I heard that Heavenly Dragon Holy Land and Acheron have started a war?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Yes," Yang Long stood up and said, "because Acheron sneak attacked the Sky Dragon Sacred Realm, causing …"
"Let's talk as we walk." Ye Tianze was ready to hurry.
Three days later, the two arrived at the outskirts of Sky Dragon City. Along the way, Ye Tianze learned about the recent happenings.
He really did not expect that the Heavenly Dragon Sage Realm would directly choose to fight with Acheron, to the point where Acheron could not even raise his head.
What surprised Ye Tianze was that even when the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land made a move, he was actually unable to kill Acheron. It seemed like his vitality was greatly damaged, but Acheron's foundation was clearly still there. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many assassins chasing after him.
However, Ye Tianze did not feel that it was too regretful. If the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land really uprooted Acheron, who would he find to avenge Tuoba Yun?
"Divine Dragon Sword Sect, haha!" Ye Tianze sneered in his heart.
Originally, he had no enmity with the Divine Dragon Sword Sect, but the other party had helped Acheron. That was completely different.
Furthermore, Yang Long had told him that the mastermind behind the destruction of Tie Yi Hall was the Divine Dragon Sword Sect.
Thinking about the recent events, Ye Tianze could easily guess that the reason the Divine Dragon Sword Sect helped Acheron was definitely because they treated him as the successor of Tie Yi Hall and wanted to kill him as soon as possible.
Looking at the majestic city in front of him, Yang Long's eyes were filled with complicated emotions.
"In the past, did Sky Dragon City also have so many experts entering and leaving?" Outside the city gate, there was a long line. Ye Tianze discovered many experts in the crowd.
Most of them were experts from the Hidden Spirit Realm to the Warrior Realm, and there were even experts from the Warrior Realm.
With his current strength, if he used the complete form of his War Physique, he could barely fight against a Warrior Realm expert.
This was also because his War Physique had reached the fifth layer, and his physical body's resistance had increased greatly.
"Usually, there weren't so many experts." Yang Long regained his senses and said with a vigilant face, "I'm afraid that something big has happened. That's why so many experts have appeared."
Seeing his nervous face, Ye Tianze said: "Relax, these people are not Acheron's men, and it's even more impossible for them to be from the Divine Dragon Sword Sect."
"How do you know?" Yang Long asked curiously.
"That wave of assassins should be the Crown Prince's greatest trump card. After all, with your strength, that wave of assassins is enough to kill you all." Ye Tianze said, "I reckon that he probably thinks that you are already dead."
Although he said that, Yang Long was still very vigilant.
What surprised him was that things were as Ye Tianze had expected. Their journey into the city was smooth and unobstructed. The inspection at the city gate was just a routine inspection.
After Yang Long entered the city, he anxiously prepared to look for his grandfather, the Duke of Mountain Suppression.
However, Ye Tianze stopped him and said: "If you go to look for your grandfather now, you will probably be discovered by the Crown Prince's men very soon. At that time, wouldn't you go from the dark to the open?"
"The Crown Prince will find out that I am still alive sooner or later." Yang Long said, "If we stay in the city and are discovered by the Crown Prince's men, we will be dead for sure. After all, this is his territory."
"Do you know what it means to be in the dark under the light?" Ye Tianze did not care, "The most dangerous place is often the safest place. As long as you don't shout on the streets, you are the Fourth Prince. I don't think anyone will notice you."
If it was before, Yang Long would definitely not listen to Ye Tianze. However, this time, he chose to remain silent.
After that, the two of them found an inn. Ye Tianze called the waiter over and asked him carefully. Only then did he know that the recent major event in the city was the Heaven and Earth List Tournament that was held once every three years.
All the major forces of the Skydragon Country had gathered in the Skydragon City. They would compete at the Divine Dragon Sword Sect that was a hundred miles away from the city.
For the major forces of the Skydragon Country, this was a competition of strength.
Currently, the top ten of the Earth List were all controlled by the three major forces of the Skydragon Country. Just the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory alone occupied three spots.
The Divine Dragon Sword Sect occupied more spots than the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory, a total of four spots. Many years ago, the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory had always been suppressing the Divine Dragon Sword Sect.
Other than the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory and the Divine Dragon Sword Sect, Acheron occupied two spots. The rest was an expert from the Skydragon Country's royal family.
The Earth List was a ranking from the Spirit Hidden Realm to the Warrior Realm. For the major powers, the more spots their people occupied, the more authority they had in the Skydragon Country.
"To tell you the truth, this time, the Divine Dragon Sword Sect will occupy the first place. It's almost certain." The waiter said with a smile.
"Why do you say that?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Isn't that simple? Originally, the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory had the highest chance of challenging the Divine Dragon Sword Sect, but who would have thought that the second place on the Earth List, Bai Guangming, would actually betray the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory.
The waiter said, "The people from the Divine Dragon Sword Sect are all in good order. It is said that this time, there are several people from the younger generation of the Divine Dragon Sword Sect who are preparing to kill their way up. On the other hand, not only did the Heavenly Dragon Sacred Territory lose Bai Guangming, even the monster that just appeared was taken away by Acheron.
