847 Lingering Charm (1/2)
As both of them descended the mountain, Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou and Jun Moyan greeted them as they approached from the opposite direction.
When the trio saw the pair, their initially anxious expressions relaxed immediately.
”Where's Mr. Nian?”
”Where's the rest of the Four Seasons Tower?” The three old men asked in unison.
Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi's safe return was a blatant hint to this battle's outcome, but they could not avoid the doubt rising within them. They voiced it out without hesitation.
Yun Yang smiled.
”From now on, Tianxuan Continent does not have the Four Seasons Tower anymore nor does it have Mr. Nian.”
”Dead? Are all of them are dead?” The trio heaved a long, soothing sigh.
”Great!”
The shock only came a heartbeat late.
”You killed them all alone?”
As they spoke, the three experts had eyes that were as round as saucers. Disbelief and incredulity were oozing from their very gazes.
”Good luck,” Yun Yang replied with a smile, ”It's not worthy of mention.”
Jun Moyan coughed and rolled his eyes at the sky, muttering, ”Oh, stop it!”
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou were flabbergasted. Based on their estimation, the Four Seasons Tower's manpower was formidable, despite their side gaining Jun Moyan as an added aid; it would still be a challenge for the tower to kill the veteran experts but it would be equally difficult for the latter to hold their enemy back or even charge out of the tower's siege.
Those men of the Four Seasons Tower were superbly skilled experts, renowned for generations!
Jun Moyan shook his head rather speechlessly and said, ”Since Supreme Cloud is fine, I shall bid my leave. The worldly matters have come to an end. Everyone, let us meet again in the Bound of Universe.”
He turned to leave in a dapper manner. Clad in black, he was swift to disappear, only his voice resonating from a distance.
”Raven gown, raven sword, thousands of mountains jogged, sword wielded in hand, don't you speak…”
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou watched Jun Moyan's fading silhouette and chuckled simultaneously.
”This fellow is very similar to your disciple,” said Ling Xiaozui.
Dugu Chou shook his head.
”Don't flatter me too much. I'd be overjoyed. If my disciple achieves at least half of what he had, I'd be saved from my headache. Sigh, erratic as he is, he brought up a similarly volatile student… Don't mention it anymore, it's a weight in the heart.”
Ling Xiaozui guffawed. He went on to ask, ”Yun Yang, what's your next course of action?”
”I plan to head to the Four Seasons Tower's headquarters later to settle some matters, then I'll be going to the Seven Star Lake. Then, I'll prepare what's needed to depart to the Bound of Universe,” Yun Yang answered honestly after a moment of pondering.
”Alright. If so, we'll be a step earlier than you. We shall leave to the Bound of Universe today and reconnaissance for you first,” the two old men spoke simultaneously. Upon doing so, they looked at each other before breaking out into laughter.
”Very well.”
”See you in the Bound of Universe!”
”See you in the Bound of Universe!”
The two experts, like Jun Moyan, turned to leave without any hesitation.
…
They left without any worry. The Four Seasons Tower was already terminated. Given Yun Yang's current capability, he had no contender in this world – he was truly unrivaled! What was there to be worried about?
Yun Yang went to see Fu Baoguo and gave him some simple directions as to what to do afterward. Then, he left with Ji Lingxi.
”Are you still going back to Tiantang City?”
”… Everything is fine.”
”Does Lord Supreme Cloud have any future plans?”
I'll take a good look at this world, see if it gets better.”
Yun Yang smiled and together with Ji Lingxi, the pair vanished some distance away.
