It was this vigilance rising from the bottom of his heart countless times a day that urged him to seize each opportunity to enhance his cultivation base and move forward with all he could muster! It also told him to scavenge for resources however he could, to cultivate and practice his martial skills to the brink of exhaustion and to refine his saber truth…

Perhaps, it should be put in this manner; it was this constant guardedness that caused him to conceal his presence using every trick he had up his sleeves. As far as he had made it, he had tried to use his wits in fighting the enemies he met. It allowed him to almost never have a direct altercation with his enemies during this long period of vengeance.

Keeping his abilities concealed and faking a weak front for so long, he would finally triumph over the world now that he could unleash his true potential!

This was not him rambling in incoherence after scoring once, this was him basking in his value and absolute confidence!

“His intelligence quakes the mountains; he immerses himself in refining his skills. For three years the world misses his absence, the heaven and earth shake when the treasured saber is unsheathed!”

Many years later, the story of Supreme Cloud would be passed down throughout the world. His experience of years of suffering and training before he made his comeback was spread across Tianxuan in the form of novels. The Board of War’s President, who had later become the Grand Commandant, Wu Ying, broke his long-standing habit of having few words to say and composed a poem as he got tipsy. The two characters stood dependent on each other as their names were written down in history, to be sung praises for all eternity.

…

Accompanying Yun Yang was Ji Lingxi, who looked even more relaxed than the youth himself.

The Four Seasons Tower that had initially weighed them down and was regarded as an immense threat had now become an insignificant character unworthy of their worry.

As the previous confrontation came to its end, it gave an amazing boost to the couple’s confidence.

“Tianxuan Cliff!” Yun Yang sighed softly. “My brothers are all here. Watching the Four Seasons Tower’s men meet their ends at my hands, one after another, I can totally feel how gratified and comforted they’re now.”

“Didn’t you say that a few among them aren’t dead yet? If they’re all here, delightedly watching us, it won’t be good. At least, I don’t want big brother’s spirit here - I don’t want to miss the day I meet him again!” Ji Lingxi replied with a chuckle.

Yun Yang exhaled a faint sigh and said, “You’ve misunderstood me. We may be at different places now, separated in the realms, but our hearts have never been apart. What I exclaim now is just because I have yet to see them before me alive.”

A voice suddenly cut them off.

“I didn’t expect Lord Supreme Cloud to be such a sentimental person. What a pity that the battleground is fraught with danger and life and death are but the blink of an eye. However, if Supreme Cloud really wishes to see them again, it’s not exactly difficult. I shall send Lord Supreme Cloud on your way and you’ll be able to arrive before them immediately. You don’t have to reminisce with such longing…”

Yun Yang turned swiftly and with an upraised hand, a ray of saber light lashed out like a bolt of lightning.

A loud clang was heard. With the resonation of the collision, the man who spoke just now withdrew promptly with a drawn-out laugh.

A shower of cold sparks could then be seen flying over from another direction.

Wielding his saber right in front of him, the Divine Edge buzzed with a clang as a bizarre-looking secret weapon that measured up to a foot fell to the ground. Not only did the secret weapon look unusual, but the strength that came with it also was not at all weak. Even with Yun Yang’s current cultivation base, he had to suffer from the reverberations; what was more, this secret weapon was only a start - perhaps, it should be called the prequel to a shower of secret weapons…

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…

Instantly, an assortment of secret weapons, rare and peculiar ones, came flying in an ambush from every direction possible. The attackers were incredibly cautious, leaving once they launched their weaponry; they never stayed still at the same spot. Each attack was powerful and exerted with full force. In addition, the secret weapons they used were all hefty ones; none of them weighed less than a catty.

With such heavy secret weapons being hurled by martial elites of this realm with fully immersed mystical skill, the intensity was nothing but earth-shattering!

Alongside this wave of heavy secret weapons were assaulters who approached directly in the gaps between the attacks. These people used extraordinary weaponry as well; other than huge steel staffs and thick sabers, there were weapons along the lines of equally hefty steel rulers. There was even someone who was waving around a massive steel hammer. Most of the weapons used by this batch of ambushers were not exquisite weapons nor ones they were accustomed to carrying around but they all shared a common trait; they were thick, heavy and hard!

This precondition ensured the main objective of the weaponry being solid blows.

Utilizing such heavy arms complemented by mystical Qi, they would not be as easily destroyed now, even if it were pitted against Yun Yang’s Divine Edge. Furthermore, the attacks were consistent at all time; they were ongoing without any pause!

The teeming ambushes were happening at least once or several times within an instant, yet without the direct appearance of the Four Seasons Tower experts. They maintained their exits after each strike, carrying out the core strategy of touch-and-go, disregarding if it was effective. Every attack was triggered without any foretelling sign and was focused only at Yun Yang. They ignored Ji Lingxi, none of the weapons trained upon her.

The collisions rang incessantly as if one was at a smith’s shop. Yun Yang handled the ambush with concentration, completely preoccupied with the attacks.

He had thought that the Four Seasons Tower would call an end to this tactic after a while. After all, he would never be killed this way. Unexpectedly, his rival had carried on endlessly! There was almost no breather in between the frenzied wave of thrown weapons.

Such a standstill actually lasted for an entire day before the frequency dropped slightly, despite the ceaseless assaults.

Yun Yang’s mind was crystal clear. It seemed that the Four Seasons Tower was planning on such a strategy.

…

“They’ve attacked you no fewer than ten thousand times today; I believe that my count should be correct, isn’t it?”

Ji Lingxi looked at Yun Yang full of worry as she said, “Looks like they’re planning to exhaust you to death!”

Yun Yang’s face was uncommonly flushed and his breathing was quite labored. Even with his domineering cultivation base and cheat aid Emmie, he still felt worn out and enervated after holding out against the relentless attacks the entire day.

“The Four Seasons Tower is famed not only for its formidable combat power. It’s foreseeable that they’d opt for targeting tactics when the game isn’t going smoothly for them. I think… they probably aren’t restricted to this stunt - after all, this tactic takes too much time. Their main purpose is probably to expend my mystical Qi as much as possible, then come up with subsequent ploys.”

Yun Yang caught his breath and said, “While I’ll be drained if this attacking mode is prolonged, they’re equally strained - maybe even more sapped of their strength than I am!”
