Chapter 516: Who is This Person?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Immortal Dahuang scratched his head for a moment, unable to conjure up a suitable retort. Suddenly, he asked in an irritable rasp, "Where is your emperor? I will not waste my time arguing with you. I will have words with him instead."

Yun Yang casually pointed and replied, "The emperor is at the capital city, right over there. Go quickly."

"Alright, okay." Immortal Dahuang instantly ascended into the clouds, momentarily losing his bearings. He departed swiftly, seemingly embarra.s.sed about being questioned and was fleeing the scene of his shame.

Everyone looked at each other with puzzlement and no small amount of mirth in their expressions.

This fellow was an idiot. Where had he come from? What was his purpose in making this trip?

He seemed to be cuckoo, but his capabilities were remarkable. No one among Yutang's experienced cultivators could be on par with him. This person, in himself, was already a load of trouble!

Everyone was bewildered.

He had come without a reason and left without much reason as well. He must have come just to provide some entertainment to them.

It was a shock when Immortal Dahuang reappeared with a swoosh and landed right in front of Yun Yang. His eyes were trained hard on Dong Tianleng as he asked urgently, "Here now, what was the method you mentioned earlier that could treat my squint? I have overlooked your offense, why are you not telling me the solution?"

Immortal Dahuang looked impatient and eager, but his gaze never once landed on Yun Yang. Everyone else could not help but feel amused.

Yun Yang coughed and said, "My method is very simple and direct. Allow me to ask you something - with your current cultivation base, I believe that you no longer need your eyes to identify things anymore. Am I right?"

"Indeed you are." Immortal Dahuang nodded in agreement.

"Then this is simple. The next time you talk to people, don't look at the other party's face. Look right into the sky and speak."

Yun Yang continued, "This way, it will highlight your superior aura that disregards the trivial and mundane, and you can avoid detection."

Immortal Dahuang rested his arms on his back and raised his head to look at the clouds in the sky, speaking faintly, "Do you mean, like so?"

Yun Yang nodded. "Correct. Don't you feel more superior already?"

"What about when I do battle? This posture wouldn't benefit me greatly when I fight." Immortal Dahuang spoke as he continued looking into the sky.

It seemed that this fella was despised in battle before too!

"Maintain this pose during battle. Or you can add a sideways glance at the enemy when you turn. Use this to show your disdain. When people say that no one is in the eye of the beholder when he casts sideways glances at the world's heroes, this is exactly they meant. It's absolutely imperious, high and mighty! Anyone who sees it will be impressed and cowed as well!"

Immortal Dahuang turned halfway and he cast a sideways glance at Yun Yang , speaking scornfully, "Like this?"

Yun Yang did not deign to reply.

He was truly learning and applying what he was taught immediately, but why was he giving him the side-eye? Did he really believe that he appeared high and mighty by doing this?

Who would have known that Immortal Dahuang only needed to try it out once before being thoroughly impressed by the method. His eyes gazed far into the clouds, his voice nonchalant as he said, "This method is truly great. Young friend, I owe you a favor."

Then, he side-eyed Yun Yang with contempt before he shot up again and disappeared.

"Who is this person? What background does he possess? What is his ident.i.ty? Does anyone know?" Marquis Yun looked serious as he posed a series of questions, to the chagrin of everyone in sight.

How would they know who this lunatic, who had popped out of nowhere, was? The idiot had just sprung out and acted pretentiously, leaving behind a legend of backfired grandiosity. Then, he had left, just like that. This was a cla.s.sic example of a blowhard becoming a foolhardy idiot! Or more accurately, an utter idiot.

The entire process was comprised mainly of a few mystical lines that were random and beyond comprehension! Not only was it random, it didn't even make sense.

"Let's put aside the state of this person's mind, his cultivation base is incredibly mighty!" Marquis Yun looked grim. "It was powerful to the point that I couldn't probe any further… Bai Yi, what do you think?"

Bai Yixue mused and said, "This person's cultivation base is indeed very high… The feeling he gives me indicates that he may not reach Ling Xiaozui and is a little weaker than Jun Moyan, but compared to Four Seasons Tower's Four Venerable Lords, he does not pale in comparison at all – he might even surpa.s.s them, a peak level in this world."

"I think this person isn't what we should be concerned about," said Yun Yang with a smile.

"What?" Marquis Yun and Bai Yixue turned to ask in unison.

Yun Yang said faintly, "This person's cultivation base is mighty and is even above the Four Seasons Tower's Four Venerable Lords, enough for him to be ranked among this world's pinnacle experts, but this person is obviously pretty clueless. He doesn't seem to have his head screwed on correctly. Wasn't that obvious?"

Everyone nodded, agreeing on this point.

"Here is a person who does things sloppily but possesses a mighty cultivation base. In addition to what he has said, even if his words made no sense at all, it's still apparent that there's a motive behind his actions."

"From this a.n.a.lysis, the conclusion is rather plain that this person must be a disciple from some great sect and his position can't be all that high, despite his seemingly superior cultivation base."

Yun Yang said softly, "What you all should consider now is… what sort of sect or school does he hail from?"

"This sect has a muddleheaded disciple who has such a formidable cultivation base… in addition to that, there is the fact that this sect seems to be very concerned about the rise and fall of the continent, touching on ideas like heaven's will and the bigger picture…"

Yun Yang spoke clearly, "Not only do they appear concerned, there's a big possibility that they will intervene."

"I can even make a bold inference that this person may very well have been sent out to test the waters… Maybe he's an attendant to a particular sect's person in charge? Or… a junior brother? Perhaps a guard? Something along those lines…"

"No matter which of these categories this Immortal Dahuang falls under, can you imagine how terrifying the sect he's from must be?" Yun Yang said.

Marquis Yun and the others wore similar looks of worry.

Yun Yang continued softly, "If there's really such a sect in this world, what will the overall capability of this sect be? Compared to the Four Seasons Tower that calls themselves the top in the world now, will they fare better or worse?"

Marquis Yun, Bai Yixue and Fang Mofei pondered upon the question. Their expressions were somber, no longer tickled and casual like they had been earlier. If Yun Yang's estimation was correct, the terror this sect could bring about would be unprecedented!

"What's more appalling is that the sect is not on friendly terms with us and is dissatisfied that we've defeated Dongxuan. Perhaps, as they have acknowledged, Dongxuan should be on the side where destiny belongs to and is contained within the bigger picture. Now that we actually won, we are defying G.o.d's will! Speaking of these two words – defying G.o.d… I wonder if something else has occurred to any of you?"

Yun Yang asked the question out loud but seemed to have addressed the question to himself, "Does this sect regard its own existence as a G.o.d? Does it take the sect's vision to be heaven's will?"

"We've gone against their vision of them choosing Dongxuan as the winner, so they say that we've defied G.o.d." Yun Yang mused. "Then, it also means that they intend to control the fates of the dynasties in this world and even manipulate the rise and fall of an imperial authority!"

"But if such a superior force exists… why have we not known about it all this while?"

"Logically, the whole world should know it if such a sect exists! They would carry the t.i.tle of Tianxuan's top sect!"

Yun Yang continued, "Why do I not have even the slightest impression of such a sect? Or does this mean that my train of thought is heading in a totally wrong direction?"
