479 Am I Supreme Wind? (1/2)

Yun Yang did not want to reveal himself, therefore he left his horse by the side and attempted to pass through the barricade on foot after finding out about the spiritual restraint.

Although his previous attempts had failed, the Four Seasons Tower's men were astonished at his fighting skill.

In spite of his grimy appearance, Yun Yang had incredible skill, an adeptness that would put even the experts at a clear disadvantage in a fight, if they made a single careless move. It was fortunate however for them, that Yun Yang's cultivation base was weaker than theirs or else they would not have been able to block him.

Feeling helpless, Yun Yang set his heart on a new goal and quickly retreated dozens of miles away. He decided to take the quickest route back and reinstated his title as the capital city's Young Master Yun.

Yun Yang, the young marquis of Marquis of Heavenly Clouds, was rushing to the Resilience Fortress to assist the frontline!

However, Yun Yang did not want to expose his true identity until after he crossed the forest. But he wondered what would happen if his Nine Supremes power came back abruptly during a critical moment after crossing the forest.

That would mean that Supreme Cloud had suddenly come to the Fortress of Resilience.

Only a few experts had ever passed by the forest during this current time. Hence, people would easily confirm that it was indeed Young Master Yun Yang who was the Supreme Cloud. This would be akin to revealing his secret to the Four Seasons Tower.

Unfortunately, due to the numerous failures in his previous advances, Yun Yang found himself in a nervous state. He couldn't have cared any less right now and he postponed considering any consequences till later. Although there was some doubt that he might not even be able to recover his Nine Supremes power immediately after crossing the forest, he had no choice but to cross the area first.

Yun Yang had decided to go for his old look; he wore a purple robe, his hair was tied up with a purple jade ornament. He looked handsome; phoenix-like eyes twinkled below arched eyebrows as strands of hair fluttered in the wind.

A shiny long saber was sheathed at his hip and he was mounted on a crimson steed, charging along his way.

The young master looked like jade figurine riding upon a horse that looked like a dragon!

Reddie galloped along, gaining momentum and crossing a hundred feet with a single gallop. Dozens of miles passed by in the same amount of time it would have taken to snap one's fingers. In the blink of an eye, man and horse arrived once again at the foot of the mountain.

Yun Yang's demeanor revealed that he knew about the strong forces which oversaw this place as he entered. He spurred his horse to give it a burst of speed without slowing down. His face reflected an inner sense of urgency that would not allow for any delay.

Suddenly, a metal blade came swinging towards him, cutting through the engulfing fog as if filled with an icy, murderous intent.

Yun Yang's face had barely any time to register his own shock as the blade swung forward. His fast reflexes took over as he countered the blade with his own long saber while springing up and yelling, ”Who is it?”

His voice, accompanied by his unique technique of wielding his Merciless Blade in a counterattack, had instantly revealed his identity to his hidden foe. A surprised gasp rang out, ”Yun Yang?”

The shock in the other person's voice was matched by the stunned expression on Yun Yang's face as he heard his name being called out. 'Venerable Lord Frost?” he inquired.

A person appeared from the dense forest ahead, clad in a long robe the color of frost and snow, coupled with a gaze like sweeping arcs of electricity; it was the Four Seasons Tower's Venerable Lord Frost, one of the remaining Four Venerable Lords!

He looked at Yun Yang, absolutely dumbstruck.

Because he had misjudged the force of his counterattack, Yun Yang lost his balance and dropped to the ground before yelling angrily, ”Venerable Lord Frost, why is the Four Seasons Tower such a lingering ghost? Are your words just empty promises?

Venerable Lord Frost replied, equally enraged, ”What do you mean we're lingering ghosts? Who are you to say our words are empty promises? Watch what you say!”

Yun Yang got even angrier.

”If you aren't lingering ghosts, then why are you all blocking my way? If your words aren't empty, why attack me with the intention to kill me? The agreement we had is still fresh in my mind and even though you're the one who attacked first, you have the temerity to complain that I should watch my words?”
