679 To Be Found! To Be Killed! (1/2)

The main reason why Yun Yang did not mind using the two pieces of the secret map as the pawn in his ploy this time around was so that he could attract the sects and schools that were involved in the war between the two empires.

He wanted to annihilate them, in the same manner as he had done to the Ma-i Sect; he fully intended to use the goriest and extreme method to serve as a warning to others.

It was compulsory to achieve a horror of such great extent that no one dared to forget it and no one would dare to try again. Martial world sects and martial artists should mind their own business in the future when two empires were engaged in the hegemony of the world. The fight for dominance among the kingdoms was not something they should get involved in!

Yun Yang was certain that there would at least be ninety percent less martial world schools that would still be brave enough to participate and enter the battlefield, should there be war after the incident this time around. Not many sects would risk the possibility of extinction while contending for worldly fame and fortune.

Yun Yang's second objective – or rather, a more concealed purpose – was Ouyang Xiaoshe!

This person was one of the people Yun Yang loathed the most in this world, ranked right after the Four Seasons Tower's veiled higher authorities!

Ouyang Xiaoshe had a piece of the dragon hide treasure map as well, and the original owner of the map was Old Dugu.

Since he had a piece, the attraction of the two pieces of the map that were presently out there now had to be much stronger to him than to others. He would definitely come. As long as he came, he would die here – there was simply no other end for him! After all, the whole of Tiantang City was currently a large trap from which no one could escape.

Old Dugu had waited far too long underground. It was time this vengeance was settled!

Therefore, the current ploy of deceiving the world's assassins into being massacred was only a secondary aim to Yun Yang in this set-up. Be it those who were employed by the crown prince or those commissioned by any other princes, he would kill them all.

When the connection to the outside world was thoroughly severed, they would have to stop their plan since they could do nothing about it!

It was due to this that Yun Yang had been roaming above that part of the city these past few days, eager to observe the current situation. His plan to return to the Residence of Nine Supremes at once upon recovering his Nine Supremes power was not even followed through.

He would have the chance to increase his capability but if he could not trap Ouyang Xiaoshe this time, he would be hard-pressed to find another opportunity, seeing how vast the world was.

Shui Wuyin's intelligence labyrinth was fully utilized as well. Now, Shui Wuyin dared to say so to Yun Yang, ”Even if a mosquito flew into Tiantang City, I could tell you whether it's male or female!”

However, there was no news about Ouyang Xiaoshe, despite the fact that a long time period had elapsed.

Yun Yang frowned. ”No matter how careful Ouyang Xiaoshe is, he couldn't possibly have noticed that this is a trap set specifically for him. The fact that he has a dragon hide treasure map is absolutely confidential and it's impossible that he won't be moved by these two pieces of the map that just emerged. There must be another reason he hasn't appeared.”

”Pay more attention to those people who came in disguise.”

Shui Wuyin felt powerless about this.

Those who came in disguise were distinct or easily identified as their arrivals were always recorded,but it was something else altogether to ferret Ouyang Xiaoshe out from these people. It was a difficult challenge.

Although it was a challenge, there was still asolution. Moreover, it had to be done, no matter how arduous it was; the task had to be completed!

'Ouyang Xiaoshe – lean and sculpted with white hair and a slightly bald top. The crow's feet on his face are severe, while there's a blade scar at the corner of his mouth and a black mole under his chin. His eyebrows are slit and he's always hunched over. He coughs habitually before killing someone. Six feet and a half, wears a grey robe all year long, and speaks with Ziyou's capital city accent.'

'His famed weapon is the saber within his sleeves, while the secret weapons he uses are a sword beneath his feet, with arched back needles and darts within his hair…'

Ouyang Xiaoshe's information was being collected and refined as the days passed by.

Finally, Shui Wuyin came out with a summary. ”Old Dugu's incident saw Supreme Cloud attacking aggressively in the Empire of Ziyou's capital, Zilong City, causing Empire of Ziyou to weaken since the battle. It was also the start of the four-nation siege's breakup.”
