Chapter 373: If I Leave, You’ll Have to Leave Too!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yun Yang felt that his luck was not all that bad these days.
Not only had he found his eldest brother’s child, he had pocketed a fair share of top-notch cultivation resources. Perhaps a portion of these things could be used on Bao’er to build up his foundation... yes, that would be a good choice.
However, Yun Yang’s dandy mood lasted less than a quarter of an hour before it was all gone.
Shui Wuyin’s message had arrived.
"I’ve found up what you wanted to know, boss."
Yun Yang was actually stumped when he read the message – what information did I want to know? Why don’t I remember this?
He went to Shui Wuyin. "What is it?"
Shui Wuyin was taken aback as well. "The information that you mentioned? About the Empire of Ziyou’s assassin? Didn’t you ask me to go find that out?"
Hit with sudden realization, Yun Yang chuckled and said, "Oh, oh. Yes, right. What’s the situation?"
Shui Wuyin replied easily, "This doesn’t actually have much to do with us. Unfortunately, the mess was no small matter."
Yun Yang retorted with interest, "Just tell me what it is! What bait are you using to lure me out?"
"Not only was this assassin caught by the Empire of Ziiyou’s experts, he was severely injured and close to death. The Empire of Ziyou wanted to sentence him, to formally to warn the world... more like putting up a precedence? Somehow, a major character has stepped out of line... Now, they’re in an extremely awkward position!"
Yun Yang’s interest was piqued as he asked with a smile, "What sort of extreme awkwardness?"
Shui Wuyin answered, "It was said that this assassin was too severely wounded. Even with treasured resources of the heaven and earth, his life was barely supported. He was only maintaining the last breath of basic Qi. In spite of this, this major character still utters threats, refusing to obey nor submit."
Yun Yang asked pondering, "What major character it this, who has such an intimidating aura? Intimidating an empire is no mean feat."
Shui Wuyin uttered mysteriously in a low whisper, "Jun Moyan!"
Yun Yang was shocked before an ominous feeling surged through his heart. He stood up abruptly, his expression turned menacing. "Who? Who did you say it was?"
"Jun Moyan! The Unrivaled Swordsman!" Shui Wuyin was shocked as well, frightened by Yun Yang’s expression. "Boss, what is it? Why do you suddenly look so worried?"
Yun Yang could feel his heart palpitating, almost lurching out from his throat. "This assassin, what’s his name? What does he look like? Why does Jun Moyan intervene? Do you have more information about this?"
"We really don’t know much more. The Empire of Ziyou is concealing all the news regarding this person. The intelligence we’ve gotten is already the outcome of a lot of effort. If more information is needed, then more work will need to be put in. You didn’t ask me to pay close attention to this, so the work done is naturally lesser."
Shui Wuyin frowned, he could tell that something was amiss. Yun Yang’s response and attitude were certainly unusual.
According to Shui Wuyin’s knowledge, Yun Yang had sufficient resolve and shrewdness; he had always been one to maintain an indifferent front, despite any major news or changes.
When had he ever been this jittery?
Not only did his expression change, his gaze had become anxious, like an extremely terrifying and unexpected event was to happen!
Was this assassin related to Lord Supreme Cloud? Or maybe the Nine Supremes Lords?
"You don’t know anything else but the rough estimation of the assassin’s age?" Yun Yang questioned urgently.
"I really have no idea. This was negligence on my part."
Yun Yang closed his eyes.
Of course, he knew that this was not Shui Wuyin’s negligence, but his previous order that made the latter neglect the need for further information. At this point, they did not even know the assassin’s age. If so, they might really not have any other information regarding this news.
The ominous premonition surrounding his heart grew stronger.
Why did Jun Moyan suddenly intervene?
Why did this assassin only ambush the higher authorities of the four nations but never Yutang’s men?
He patted the Medallion of Gratitude in his embrace and thought of Old Dugu.
The lonesome old man – seventh brother’s father!
Another family member related to the Nine Supremes who was still alive!
The more Yun Yang thought of it, the more panic filled him, draining him of color.
He had been searching for news on this old man but had never found out anything of import. Never did it cross his mind that the fragment of information that was now known and might be related to him would be terribly bad news!

The assassin was severely injured and near death, maintaining his last breath of basic Qi with treasured resources of the heaven and earth but might leave the world at any given time!
If the assassin were to be Old Dugu – if the old man were to perish, would that not be another close family who left the world before his eyes?
Yun Yang did not want to accept such an outcome; he was not willing to go through another parting like this!
He stood up abruptly and said, "Wuyin, you’ll take over everything in Tiantang City now. Keep everything secure and sound no matter what! I have something urgent to attend to, and will be leaving right away."
Shui Wuyin’s omen had come true, but it was petrifying!
"My lord! Don’t act on impulse!" Shui Wuyin’s collected mien was gone. "The Empire of Ziyou is tens of thousands of miles away, the land is foreign and the experts are plenty. Besides, it’s the capital of an enemy nation. Not only will it be difficult to achieve something, going alone like this might garner an immense risk to yourself…"
Yun Yang waved his hand negligently, with an expression of steel. "I’m resolute, no need to say anything more."
Before his words were done echoing, he had already turned and left.
…
"Brother Lei, a surprising event has come out of the blue. I can only apologize to Brother Lei first." Yun Yang went over to Lei Dongtian’s room with hasty steps.
He was leaving and if Lei Dongtian continued staying here, it would be bad if something unexpected was spun from it. Whether he was killed or learned of his secrets, they were things that Yun Yang was reluctant to see happen.
It was better to make this fellow leave as soon as possible too.
"What is it?" Lei Dongtian jumped up in surprise. Judging the other’s intention with his own eyes, he instinctively thought that Yun Yang wanted to pass him to the Four Seasons Tower; his eyes could not help but flash with unprecedented fear and panic.
"I have something urgent to be handled personally and need to leave Tiantang City at once. When you leave, it’s destined that I can’t be sending you off," Yun Yang said apologetically.
"Oh, so this is it… It’s no big deal, don’t worry." Lei Dongtian was relieved then. "Tend to your matter then. Who are we brothers, we have a long time to go."
"Thank you for your consideration, Brother Lei. This is truly an emergency." Yun Yang sucked in a deep breath. "This young brother must go."
His eyes were brimming with endless rage and urgency.
"What has happened? You were so calm when you faced the Four Seasons Tower’s threat of death the other day but why are you so frazzled now?" Lei Dongtian asked curiously.
"Brother Lei, you don’t know the least of it…" Yun Yang sighed and said, "The Four Seasons Tower is called Tianxuan Continent’s top force but its tactics go to the extreme and can be extremely tasteless and contemptible. When they meet an opponent that they can’t beat by force, they will strike, focusing on the opponent’s weakness. The Unrivaled Expert Ling Xiaozui had to recede when he had gone against the Four Seasons Tower exactly because the tower had threatened him with the safety of his family and friends. It’s just that right now, there isn’t even a handful of those whom the Four Seasons Tower needs to tackle with this method aside from brute martial force. I didn’t expect to be honored as well. They were forced into an agreement; they can’t attack me in Tiantang City, but they’ve seized two of my relatives in other places and lured me there!"
Lei Dongtian was shocked. "There is such a thing? The Four Seasons Tower actually resorts to such extreme tactics without a care and not a bit of grace that belongs to that of a powerful one?"
Yun Yang sighed, "I didn’t expect that the Four Seasons Tower can’t afford to even be challenged! This issue involves the safety of my family, I have to make my way there immediately… However, I’m also worried that after I leave and without the other party of the agreement here, the Four Seasons Tower will most probably take this chance to ambush you. They might even be luring me away intentionally. Therefore, Brother Lei… it looks like you might have to really depart earlier. I’m afraid the later you leave, the more probable that everything will spin out of control."
Lei Dongtian thought about it and felt the fear racking through him, saying, "That’s right, that’s right. This must be a trick to distract the enemy away from their vantage point…"
He looked at Yun Yang like he was looking at his talisman. "Brother Yun, are these two people important?"
The implicit meaning was obvious – "Who could be more important than me? Why don’t you stay to protect me?"
Yun Yang answered grimly, "It’s my senior brother and junior sister. My junior sister… is my fiancée."
Lei Dongtian was shocked when he heard him.
Senior brother? Junior sister? Fiancée?
He then recalled that he had traveled all the way here for his own fiancée and could imagine the importance of one’s bride-to-be.
No matter how Yun Yang prioritized him, he would still definitely rush his way to where his fiancée was, throughout the night. He could not possibly replace Yun Yang’s fiancée…
This fiancée can never be kept alive, seeing that she can sway my position in Yun Yang’s heart. That senior brother… he has to die too! Yun Yang can only have me alone in his heart – no one else!
Yun Yang’s heart had gradually become the item of Lei Dongtian’s obsession. Lei Dongtian did not know it yet, neither did Yun Yang!
"Since young sister-in-law is in danger, you must definitely save her. Brother Yun, depart at once. I shall depart immediately when you leave, saving you from worries and dual-ended concerns," Lei Dongtian said resolutely, in addition to stating his stance.
Since Yun Yang was leaving, like he had said, the Four Seasons Tower had nothing to be restrictive of. It was of utmost dangerous for him to stay here, of course he would have to leave instantly!
"That would be best!" Yun Yang said, "My guard here is a top-notch expert in disguise. Old Bai."
Bai Yixue stepped forward in reply, "Here, young master."
"Help Young Master Lei with his disguise. You must do it flawlessly, including his skin color, neck and shoulders, arms, wrists, hair, gaze, eyebrows. Even the distance between his eyes. These must all be different from his original features… It has to be impeccable, not one sliver of loophole. Can you do it?"
Bai Yixue replied with a serious face, "Don’t worry, young master. I will make sure that the task is completed, and prioritize perfection!"
"Remember that. I do not allow any ‘what-ifs’!" Yun Yang instructed sternly. "After that, you must make sure that Young Master Lei makes it out safe and sound, with your own eyes. Otherwise, you need not come back as well."
