Chapter 559: Above and Below The Sky

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Somewhere, someone was berating and beating someone.

Bam, pow, boom…

"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

"Didn't I tell you to protect your younger sister when I let you out? Is this how you protect her?!"

"Do you know that she's suffering now? All because of your inadequacy, your inability, your irresponsibility…"

"Protect, that's all you needed to do… is it so hard to protect her? Did you think leaving her and coming back yourself is protecting her? b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

"Just great, now my daughter is an orphan! Lonely and helpless, uncared for, with no one to depend on… What an absolute b.a.s.t.a.r.d you are!"

"How is this possible? How can this be? Ah, your father is about to die from heartache!"

Bam, bam, bam…

Someone placated from the side, "Stop hitting him. You're the one asking for this. Besides, if you're angry, hit your own son, why are you hitting my son for?"

Was this mediating the fight?

"These b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, my anger won't be sufficiently vented even if I beat up all eight every day!"

"Come, son, follow father home!"

"Son, let us go back too. If we stay here we have to be beaten up, how can there be such a thing on earth!"

"Correct, leave them be, father and son, let him beat his son to death, perhaps then his rage will be vented."

"Let's go, let's go. We're not mixing with them anymore."

A group of people left.

Someone bellowed, "Leave your sons here! Your father has yet to finish venting his anger!"

What answered him were a few scoffs while one of them answered coldly, "I'm reluctant to beat my son but you seem quite apt in beating him up. Don't think for a moment that I didn't see it. You didn't even use any strength in beating your son up but you have no mercy when you hit mine. Just you wait, your sister-in-law's about to come looking for you. Then you'll understand what it means to show no mercy."

"…" Someone was tongue-tied.

"Your sister-in-law's coming soon! She's just said that she was on her way. Finders keepers, it's necessary for anyone who sees her to have a share."

"Psh, you illiterate! Is the concept of finders keepers appropriate here? But it's correct that anyone who sees her has a share, my… your sister-in-law will be here soon. How could we not notice her?"

"That's right, that's right. Your sister-in-law is coming now, she won't be missed out…"

Someone turned away swiftly like his b.u.t.tocks were burned.

"Come, son, I'm not beating you up anymore. Let us move quickly. If anyone who sees her has a share, you may not see your father anymore…"

"Wife! Quick!"

…

Far, far away on the other side of Tiantang City.

Dong Tianleng and gang had really abstained from causing more troubles in this period of time, failing to uphold their reputation as the four great popinjays. Of course, it was better to not live up to their past reputation than to risk death by loitering around. These four guys were truly frightened.

Currently, Tiantang City had too much going on, so much so that people were dying almost any time and anywhere. What more was that those being killed were experts too!

This caused the four young masters to simultaneously feel like all the known and unknown experts and proficient cultivators in the martial world were concentrated in Tiantang City.

The Hall of Crimson Blade, The Merciless Tower, the Concourse of the Underworld, and current top a.s.sa.s.sins of the world whom one could scarcely hope to meet in person had all made their appearance here. It was a gathering, by no mere coincidence. In addition to that, the Four Seasons Tower, such a mysterious and powerful organization, had begun to open fire. There was also the School of Kismet State, a super sect that existed only in the legends of top-notch schools, which emerged out of the blue; it was a school that had never shown itself for so long.

What was going on in Tiantang City? There must be something major that was about to happen!

Then, something major did happen.

The Great Young Master Yun – the four popinjays had initially helped him a little when they knew about Great Young Master's Yun's objective. But as Great Young Master Yun killed almost everyone he met, the four popinjays shuddered from his brutality; although the people he killed were criminals, the ruthlessness of his action was still terrifying.

They had thought that Great Young Master Yun's act was more than ruthless but what the Four Seasons Tower's Three Venerable Lords did next was even more bloodcurdling. They wiped out an entire school with ease, not even leaving behind an animal in their killing spree; they had slaughtered all the men of the Hall of Crimson Blade and The Merciless Tower in Tiantang City.

Soon after, The Merciless Tower responded. The four young masters didn't even think for a second that there was anything else that could have shaken them even more as they had already been shocked so much now but once the Dictum of Death was sent, oh my G.o.d, all the skilled a.s.sa.s.sins in this world were flocking to where they were!

The Tianxuan Continent did not only contain Yutang, Dongxuan, and the other known empires; the entire surface area of the continent was unimaginably huge! Oh G.o.d, what were they going to do?

Consequently, the four n.o.ble families had sealed themselves directly. Before they shut the outside world out, they sent the four popinjays a message – be good, do not roam around, practice cultivation indoors if they had nothing to do, find a woman and make children. If they were too bored, they could find a man for excitement if they wanted to. All in all, do not cause any trouble. If there is any trouble, do not bring it home, solve it outside – however they pleased.

This was the request of the reputable families in the martial world towards their descendants. It was not too restricting.

Actually, their families' reminder was not needed. The four men who understood their ability well were both good and subservient. During such chaotic and barbarous times, they wouldn't be so stupid in acting recklessly.

When Yun Yang came, the four of them were huddled together playing dice. There was at least some entertainment they could have together without having to resort to finding women to quell their boredom!

"Six, six, six! Strike! A strike! Your father wins!"

"F*ck!"

"This b.a.s.t.a.r.d must have taken some pills today eh? He's gotten two strikes within an hour and now he's gotten another strike. This isn't right?!"

"Is he cheating? He must be!"

"Pfft! You're the one cheating, your whole family is cheating! Pay up!"

"Pay what? Your father needs to think carefully, to study what's gone wrong!"

"F*ck you! You still want to think after you've lost? Then why didn't you f*cking stop to think when you won just now?"

"I won based on my luck but yours obviously wasn't based on luck. It's just strange."

"Strange your *ss! What's so strange?"

"How dare you cuss at me? All the more I shouldn't pay you…"

"How dare you! Try escaping, see if your father f*cks you to death!"

"F*ck you, what did you say? Who are you f*cking!"

"You! What is it?"

…

Seeing the argument grow more heated and the four were about to start a brawl, Yun Yang sighed and rubbed his forehead, pus.h.i.+ng the door open and entering. Just as he entered, he saw Dong Tianleng grabbing a fist full of Chun Wanfeng's robe, face flushed red in anger; his other hand was balled up in a fist looking like he was really going to beat the other man up.

Xia Bingchuan and Qiu Yunsan were watching the drama from the side.

"Hit him! Beat him up! Dong Tianleng, if you don't beat him up, you're not a man. We'll despise you forever!"

"Chun Wanfeng, if you ask for mercy then you're not a man. Fight him, see who can defeat the other!"

"I bet a hundred thousand taels that both of them won't be able to brawl. They don't have the guts, they don't have b.a.l.l.s!"

"F*ck, your words are vicious! We'll bet!"

It was a mess.

Chun Wanfeng tensed. "Go on, hit me! Let me tell you, if you dare to f*cking hit me, you can stop wis.h.i.+ng that I'd pay up…"

"F*ck you, are you blackmailing me now?" Dong Tianleng was about to wallop the other guy.

"F*cking righteous when you're the deadbeat huh. Your father must take care of this flaw of yours today. Your father will f*cking beat you up until you pay – until you admit defeat!"

Yun Yang shouted with a headache, "Stop it! Listen to me, I have something to say!"

Four of them stopped whatever they were doing at once. They turned their heads together, a pandering smile crept onto their faces. "Boss… Boss, you're here!"

"Boss has something to say."

"Boss, please give us your order."

"Boss, this small one is ready for your orders. Give me any instruction and I won't hesitate, even if you want me to castrate myself on the spot!" Dong Tianleng looked prepared.

Yun Yang replied dryly, "Then castrate yourself. I believe everyone will be happy to see such a rare sight!"

Dong Tianleng's mouth widened to an 'O' bigger than a goose's egg. "Ah?"

"I said, castrate yourself. I'm waiting to see," Yun Yang said calmly, his gaze indifferent.

"Hahaha…" Watching Dong Tianleng's embarra.s.sed expression, the other three guys guffawed so hard that they were tearing up.

"Boss…" Dong Tianleng looked at Yun Yang pleadingly.

Yun Yang gave him a sideways glance. "Look at you, failing to behave properly on any given day. All you talk about is nonsense. Can't you be more serious?"

Dong Tianleng pulled a long face. "Yes, yes. This young brother shall turn over a new leaf in the future."

Chun Wanfeng quipped, "So you'll be seriously talking nonsense in the future?"

Yun Yang sighed, feeling like he could not have a single serious conversation with these fellas.

"You guys! Sigh… if it weren't because a sudden matter has arisen, something that must be done by all of you, I wouldn't even be here. It would be much easier to just ignore all of you."

Yun Yang became even more somber. "This is a very important matter that needs to be taken very seriously. There mustn't be any carelessness."

The four men perked up immediately once they heard him. "Do speak, boss. We've been so bored recently. Whatever the matter is, don't you worry, just leave it to us. We guarantee that we can complete it flawlessly!"

Yun Yang rolled his eyes without saying a word. If it were any serious matter, he would never pa.s.s it to them – G.o.d knows how it would turn out. It was just that this thing he was planning could only be a.s.signed to the four of them. The rest, Yun Yang thought, might not be able to do it!

He was truly utilizing their talents to its limit!

No one could do it other than the super popinjays.
