Chapter 199: Emphatic Chiding, Soaring Arrogance!

Chapter 199: Emphatic Chiding, Soaring Arrogance!

When Yang Yan heard Yang Dingtian asked for the evidence again, his face instantly changed as he said, “Young Lord Wu Ming. Two hundred years ago, Li Tianxiao nearly destroyed the entire Heaven Dao Union. After experiencing such a painful lesson, I felt that such a special situation should be dealt with specially. There is no need for evidence for Yang Dingtian’s case, and he should be dealt with immediately.”

Immediately after, Yang Yan carried on and said, “Furthermore, the Heaven Dao Union’s Northwest Conference has already made the decision by vote.”

If Yang Dingtian were truly a disciple of the Hidden Sect, then Yang Yan’s behavior was truly disrespectful. What he meant from his words was that they have already made the decision, and there was no need for you, Wu Ming, to meddle in it. From the tone of his voice, they actually treated the members of the Hidden Sects as Bodhisattva on the stage. They were respectful on the surface, but they were actually opposing in secret.

Furthermore, when Yang Yan was so disrespectful to a member of the Hidden Sect, no one present had shown any objection.

It was evident that after the Hidden Sect had secluded themselves for two centuries, everyone’s hearts were filled with doubt and reluctance. They might seem to still view the Hidden Sect members as the leader of the Heaven Dao Union, but not so when it was involved with their own interests.

Yang Dingtian had instantly fallen into a dangerous situation, and his eyes immediately shrunk a little.

“I have two matters to attend to for my trip. Firstly, it is about the disappearance of the entire Maori Barbarian Tribe. The Maori Barbarian Tribe, which occupied the entire Icebound Continent, had more than ten million members, but they have vanished completely from the world. This is an omen. Hence, all of you are to send out large numbers of men to investigate this matter.” Yang Dingtian didn’t continue the dispute with Yang Yan and changed his topic.

“Yes, Young Lord Wu Ming.” Everyone responded in unison.

As long as it was a matter than didn’t infringe their interests, they were very willing to express their respect and obedience to the Hidden Sect.

“Secondly, it is about Evil Dao’s infiltrator that is in the Heaven Dao Union.” Yang Dingtian said indifferently.

Once this statement was out, Yang Yan’s expression immediately lit up with excitement. It seemed like this Young Lord Wu Ming was also supporting them.

Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen’s expression had instantly turned dark and were infuriated. So it turned out that the disciple of the Hidden Sect was also as pragmatic and ridiculous.

“But from the information I have, the Evil Dao infiltrators aren’t the Cloud Heaven City but another more illustrated faction.” Yang Dingtian spoke indifferently, I shall not name them out here, but I will look for those people involved to discuss it.”

Once these words were out, everyone present had an instant change in expression.

“As for Yang Dingtian, I heard about him, but I do not know him well.” Yang Dingtian then said, “But, in regards to the matter of him being an Evil Dao infiltrator and to issue an arrest warrant of him to the world. It shall not be approved. I will deny it!”

Once these words were out, everyone instantly exclaimed.

“Young Lord Wu Ming, please reconsider. This is a decision made by everyone in the Heaven Dao Union’s Northwest Branch.” Yang Yan immediately said with a cold tone.

When Yang Yan spoke, he was revealing a trace of threat.

“This is an order. You can choose to obey or to disobey.” Yang Dingtian said indifferently.

Immediately, everyone’s faces revealed struggle and wrath.

They truly wanted to overturn the table and say, “You god damn Wu Ming, how dare you issue an order to us?”

They wanted to do it, but they didn’t dare.

“Who wants to disobey the order? Say it now…” Right now, it was Yang Dingtian who revealed a smile, and he was glancing at everyone leisurely.

Yang Dingtian was betting that no one would dare to speak out, no one would dare to take the risk.

“For my order in regards to Yang Dingtian, does anyone have an opinion?” Yang Dingtian said insipidly.

Even though Yang Yan was reluctant, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and lower his head. “I shall obey.”

“We shall obey…” Everyone responded in unison.

“Alright, then.” Yang Dingtian then said, “Then, the arrest warrant for Yang Dingtian shall be canceled.”

Yang Yan quickly asked, “Young Lord Wu Ming, what about Yang Dingtian’s participation rights to the martial contest for next year’s Cloud Heaven City Lord’s position?”

Yang Dingtian said with a dull voice, “That is the Cloud Heaven City’s internal affairs and isn’t the scope of discussion in the Heaven Dao Union’s conference. Hence, all those who aren’t from the Cloud Heaven City are to be dismissed.”

“Yes!” A few dozen people in the hall apart from the members of the Cloud Heaven City had left, including Qin Wanshan and Qin Huaiyu.

“Northwest Qin City’s members stay behind.” Yang Dingtian suddenly spoke.

Qin Wanshan and Qin Huaiyu immediately stopped and stayed behind.

***************************************

At this moment, the main hall was only left with Yang Dingtian, Madam Ximen, Ximen Lie, Yang Yan, Tang Bozhao, Qin Wanshan, Qin Huaiyu, and others.

“In regards to the matter if Yang Dingtian is still qualified to participate in next year’s martial contest to decide the City Lord. It is the Cloud Heaven City’s internal affairs, and not even me can interfere.” Yang Dingtian then said, “But if it involves the splitting of the Cloud Heaven City, I will have the authority to be involved.”

In an instant, Yang Dingtian’s expression got stern as he said, “As a member of the Heaven Dao Union, why are all of you trying to split up the Cloud Heaven City and have a civil war?”

Ximen Lie quickly said, “Young Lord Wu Ming, please listen to what I have to say, it is because of Yang Yan and the others…”

“I am not going to listen…” Yang Dingtian immediately interrupted Ximen Lie and said indifferently, “My most important matter for this trip is to investigate the disappearance of the Maori Barbarian Tribe. I am not here to be the judge for your Cloud Heaven City. I am not here to determine who is right or who is wrong.”

“Yes…” Ximen Lie immediately stepped down and lowered his head.

Yang Yan’s expression relaxed in an instant. As long as Wu Ming was biased and leaned to the other side, he had nothing to worry about.

“Our Hidden Sect never interferes with the internal affairs of any faction in the Heaven Union Dao; I am not an exception too. I do not care who or what is involved. As long as it doesn’t involve the Evil Dao, I will not bother.” Yang Dingtian said with an insipid tone, “Your own matters will be settled with your own weapons.”

Yang Dingtian’s words were very straightforward.

After hearing Yang Dingtian’s words, Yang Yan, Ximen Lie, and the others were even more certain of Wu Ming’s identity as the Hidden Sect’s member.

The members of the Hidden Sect were all so overbearing and so straightforward.

“Alright then, I do have opinions.” Yang Dingtian said coldly, “They are mere opinions and not orders. It is up to you if you wish to accept it or not.”

“For my first opinion, the Black Blood Cavalry has been drifting outside, and it isn’t a good thing. Furthermore, they have been drifting in the Heaven Dao Union’s territory and would only cause more disturbance. I have already heard about many of the outrageous matters that are revolved around the Black Blood Cavalry.”

Ximen Lie said, “Young Lord Wu Ming, someone is framing us.”

Yang Dingtian’s voice instantly turned cold, “Do you think I care about all these?”

Once Yang Dingtian spoke, Ximen Lie was instantly speechless.

Yang Dingtian carried on and said, “Hence, Ximen Lie, you will bring the Black Blood Cavalry back to your Black Blood Castle. I don’t care whose faction is garrisoned inside the Black Blood Castle right now. All of those people will get out, and none shall stay behind.”

Once this statement was out, Qin Wanshan and Yang Yan’s expressions had drastically changed.

On the other hand, Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen had a pleasantly surprised expression for a moment.

“But…” Yang Dingtian continued, “For next year’s martial contest for the City Lord position; if Yang Dingtian is defeated, he will not be able to inherit the City Lord’s position. Then Ximen Lie, you must hand over the Black Blood Cavalry and the Black Blood Castle as a whole. You, Madam Ximen, Yang Dingtian, your entire faction is to be evicted from the Cloud Heaven City and shall never be associated with the Cloud Heaven City. I only have one opinion, that is for the Cloud Heaven City to have a single voice and not to be split up. I do not care who is the one that takes over as the City Lord, but in the Cloud Heaven City, there can only be a single voice.”

Once this was said, Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen’s expression changed slightly.

Finally, Yang Dingtian said, “If you are to accept my proposal, then withdraw your armies. Within one day, everyone inside the Black Blood Castle shall be withdrawn, and Ximen Lie will bring the Black Blood Cavalry to occupy the Black Blood Castle. If you don’t agree, then start the civil war, until one of the sides is completely annihilated. But the ones involved must only be the members of the Cloud Heaven City. No other factions shall be involved.”

Ximen Lie was caught in a hesitant struggle. He looked at Madam Ximen in the eyes and gritted his teeth before replying, “We are willing to listen to Young Lord Wu Ming’s opinion.”

“What about all of you?” Yang Dingtian looked at Yang Yan and the others.

Yang Yan, Tang Bozhao, and the others were in silence. They didn’t reply, and it was clear that they were unwilling.

Yang Dingtian frowned and said to Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen. “You shall exit first.”

“Understood!” Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen walked out of the hall.

****************************************

After Ximen Lie and Madam Ximen left, Yang Dingtian looked at Qin Wanshan and said, “Your Northwest Qin City sent people to impersonate Yang Dingtian and the Black Blood Cavalry to plunder, kill, and did so many evil things at sea. What is the meaning of this?”

Qin Wanshan’s expression immediately changed as he wanted to explain.

“I am not listening to any explanation.” Yang Dingtian immediately put up his hand and interrupted, “I am already here, and you are still trying to insist? Are you not making things difficult for me? Furthermore, you are full of flaws and are absolutely unrestrained. Where is the righteousness that the Heaven Dao Union has? Should I interfere in this matter or not? You can do the things you have to, but do not reveal your flaws and make sure it is done well.”

Qin Wanshan was astonished, but his face immediately revealed a strange smile as he said, “Yes, understood!”

Immediately after, Yang Dingtian’s expression suddenly turned stern. He hesitated for a moment and said, “I am here for another more important matter. You will put this matter in your hearts and shall not reveal a single word to anyone else.”

Yang Yan and the others instantly revealed a surprised expression and said, “Understood!”

“Ximen Ningning.” Yang Dingtian asked, “On the day when Yang Dingtian defeated Qin Shaobai, there was a battle within the Cloud Heaven City. Ximen Ningning had relied on herself to obstruct thousands of your men? She even killed nearly 1,000 people?”

When saying about this, Yang Yan’s expression immediately altered. When he recalled that day’s situation, his heart still had lingering fears. “Yes! She had killed nearly 1,000 of my men, and no one had any way to defend against her. To be honest, I have never seen such a terrifying person. Her usual self doesn’t have a hint of attack capability.”

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath.

For the entire process, Qin Huaiyu didn’t say a single thing, but he had been observing Yang Dingtian.

Earlier on, it was very suspicious when Yang Dingtian had strongly denied the punishment for Yang Dingtian and had also insisted on allowing Yang Dingtian to participate in the martial contest to decide the next City Lord.

Right now, when Yang Dingtian tried to find out about Ximen Ningning, it had attracted even more suspicion from Qin Huaiyu. To not expose himself, he truly shouldn’t inquire about Ximen Ningning anymore. But he couldn’t hold himself back.

“What happened to Ximen Ningning ultimately?” Yang Dingtian still asked.
