Hen Bieli glanced at Yun Yang after he spoke.

Yun Yang smiled humorlessly and said, "Head Tower Hen, your favor is a difficult one. You are placing me right on the grill!"

"If there was a choice, I wouldn't have passed this can of worms to Young Master Yun. However, now, here, Young Master Yun is the only one whom I can trust to remain impartial – no one else." Hen Bieli replied without holding anything back.

Yun Yang asked, "Why do you think that I'm not at all interested in this dragon hide treasure map, Head Hen? Just because of my self-righteous words earlier? Do you think that I would not take advantage of the situation?"

Hen Bieli chuckled dryly. "This is Tiantang City. If Young Master Yun had wanted to obtain this dragon hide treasure map, I believe you wouldn't have leaked even the slightest bit of information."

"Since the news has been disclosed and it's so widespread, common enough to instigate this huge fight, Young Master Yun can't possibly be interested in it at all. How, then, could your words earlier be a pretense? They're definitely your sincere words! There is no doubt about this."

What Hen Bieli said contained a massive amount of information; it seemed like a compliment but it also seemed like mockery, vague enough to have a dual meaning. Even if one were sharper than the rest, his mind would have to work harder to actually comprehend the meaning contained within.

Yun Yang could only chuckle flatly. "If so, should I be thanking Head Tower Hen's trust?"

"How can one who's at his desperate end be worthy of Young Master Yun's thanks?" Hen Bieli said quietly after a self-depreciating laugh.

His gaze narrowed as he called out, "Young Master Yun, catch."

With a swing of his arm, the dragonhide treasure map that had kept everyone on their toes flew up in the air. Everyone could not help staring wide-eyed, trying to focus on this moment. There were many who secretly reeled in their energy, planning to spring up and snatch the pieces.

'What a wonderful opportunity it is right now!'

'The assassins have given up, Yutang's officials weren't fighting for it, those on our side are all looking in front – wouldn't it be great if I flee after catching hold of it?'

When these people cast their gazes at the chilling gleams on the thousands of Deicide Bows, however, their hearts lurched again. They swiftly dismissed their initial thoughts.

Yutang officials stated that they would not involve themselves in the contest, but they were still looking greedily at the map pieces.

The risk of making a move now was truly too great. It would be best to wait a little longer.

Therefore, countless pairs of eyes stared at Yun Yang who was in the air. They wanted to see what Yun Yang's next response was – if he was genuinely heroic, upright and honorable.

Hong Zhan and the other assassins watched the dragon hide treasure map fly. They looked agonized as if their hearts were being sliced apart. This, honestly, was no different from violently slashing at their hearts. The exquisite treasure was already pocketed, but they had to give it away with both hands and could no longer participate in the fight; it was the saddest thing in life to have encountered such a fate.

The treasure map slowly rose in the air.

Yun Yang stood where he was standing all along, unmoving. The only change was the slight extension of his arm. That was all.

Everyone inwardly breathed out a sigh of relief when they witnessed the motion.

It seemed that Young Master Yun was truly not interested in the map. If he had wanted it, he would not have been so nonchalant at this moment – he would have descended to receive the map pieces. The slight movement was not to be overlooked, for the meaning it represented was significant.

No matter how nonchalant and how much a pretense one put up, one could not help but stretch out his arm in anticipation when he saw the approaching dragon hide treasure map. Everyone was even inwardly certain that even Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou, Mr. Nian, and other similar leveled experts would have made a similar move as well.

This was an unprecedented temptation! It was a godsend larger than heaven itself! Anyone who bagged would be bagging the path to heaven!

Being the so-called unrivaled expert in this world was not even worthy of mention in light of this dragon hide treasure map!

What sort of a concept was this entire episode based on?

However, Yun Yang was having none of it. His expression was even one of annoyance – not one that was faked, but a vexation that came from the bottom of his heart.

Under everyone's gaze, the dragonhide seemed to have hovered in the air for a century before it finally landed in Yun Yang's hand. Yun Yang picked it up with two fingers, sighing softly, and said, "This item is, of course, a gem to those with intentions, but to me… it is truly the seed of a disaster!"

He did not wait for the crowd's reaction before he suddenly flicked his wrist and the dragon hide treasure map that he had just received flew away again with a swoosh. He said faintly, "His Majesty is right – the martial world affairs end in the martial world. This piece of the martial world should belong to the martial world!"

"The martial world's item of fantasy does not stand in Yutang!"

"Take this secret map away. From now on, do not wreak havoc in Tiantang City anymore."

"The fight for the secret map in Tiantang City ends today!"

"Any martial man who creates trouble in Tiantang City with his martial prowess shall not be pardoned!"

As he spoke, the dragonhide treasure map had already traveled thousands of feet across the sky. It was only a short while, but countless sword lights and saber energy soared. Fresh crimson blood splattered everywhere.

It was truly only an instant, but thousands of men had sprung up to fight for the map pieces; hundreds of them died at once, while the martial prowess of the men fought for glory in the air.

The gory scene lasted for only a moment when someone suddenly howled and darted into the sky, weaving drunkenly. Immediately, dozens of light rays followed, giving chase relentlessly. The countless martial world artists below had risen without hesitation to pursue the map of fantasy.

It had only been within the blink of an eye before the gory location that had been full of corpses and broken limbs became empty.

It was apparent that someone had seized the dragon hide map and instantly fled; then, everyone else had given chase, refusing to give up.

The east district no longer had its value and promptly became deserted.

The secret dragon hide treasure map – the huge source of trouble had simply been tossed away by Yun Yang.

To a lot of people, it seemed like he had given up on the path to immortality without hesitation. It was a reckless waste of God's gift!

Saying that he had given up, Hen Bieli's eyes trailed after the dragon hide map closely, watching it leave his hands to head straight into Yun Yang's hands, then watching Yun Yang toss it away. He watched as everyone else fought over it, and finally, for everyone to leave.

After a while, he breathed in deeply and looked up to Yun Yang to say, "Young Master Yun, I, Hen Bieli, have never admitted inferiority to anyone throughout my entire life. Today, right now, I am utterly floored!"

Yun Yang chuckled dryly and replied honestly, "Head Hen, you've flattered me. You know that I won't be able to guard the map either! Even if I borrowed the intimidation of Yutang's military and hold on to this treasure map momentarily, so what? I'll only bring endless issues to myself and even the entire realm of Yutang."

"I dare not keep it! Never!"

Yun Yang continued. "Especially under today's circumstances, how dare I."

"Young Master Yun is wise, being able to pick it up and let it go," Hen Bieli mused before continuing his sentence.

Hong Zhan and the other three killers at his side were mournful as they heard him.

Hen Bieli continued. "Young Master Yun, can we leave now?"

He did not ask Yun Xiaoyao nor General Li, only Yun Yang; he could already see that Yun Xiaoyao was tempted to apprehend them right there and then. In actuality, only Yun Yang had insisted on letting the group of assassins leave.

Yun Yang voiced out, "General Li, do order your soldiers to put down their bows and arrows, and give way to them."
