Chapter 314: I Really Can't Tell!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The play was halfway through but the other party had not responded accordingly. It was more like the direction of the drama had changed completely.

What was going on now?

On one side, the old man in black robes kept his head lowered all along, his expression unclear. However, if he had looked up, one could certainly see the bewilderment on his face.

Ji Lingxi had stayed at Tiantang City and had contacted Yun Yang, for many instances. This point was certain and beyond doubt.

However, during that time, Ji Lingxi had disguised herself and changed her name!

This part of the story was unknown to them.

First, they had yet to contact the sisters of Ji Lingxi. Secondly, even if they did, the girls might not tell them the truth; furthermore, what they knew was limited to the fact that Ji Lingxi had disguised herself and had an acquaintance with Yun Yang.

Ji Lingxi's family would know even less.

Lei Dongtian's initial train of thought was not incorrect - a woman would always dress herself up for her favorite person. How could a woman not show her most beautiful side when she was with the one she liked?

However…

Due to the circumstances, Ji Lingxi did not have the time to do so. If not for the letter written by Ji Lingfeng, Yun Yang would not be able to know that Ji Ling was actually Ji Lingxi. Although Ji Lingxi had feelings for Yun Yang, Yun Yang had always put himself in the position of her father or older brother. Never did Yun Yang treat Ji Lingxi as his loved one, at least not the kind that Lei Dongtian had thought of...

So it now seemed to Lei Dongtian that the two of them may not have had that kind of relationship?

Or perhaps it was an unreciprocated relationship.

However, he had already gone through half the script, he should see it through to the end.

"The cause for this matter had been known to Brother Yun. However, the latter part of the story was the main cause of my current worries. In fact, we had managed to find her after several attempts."

Lei Dongtian sighed, "However ... at the crucial moment when we were about to meet, someone appeared out of nowhere, causing our plans to fall short!"

Yun Yang was inexplicably surprised, "Brother Lei ...please don't blame me for not able to understand the situation…The imposing manner that you displayed just now could be deemed as the pinnacle level of our times! Who could actually intervene, Brother Lei? Furthermore, to successfully thwart your plans. This is an unsettling thought!"

Any ordinary person would have said the same. A ruthless character who was able to make Lei Dongtian recede without reward was definitely not someone a petty character like Yun Yang could move. Not only was it frightening when one pondered about it, one should be utterly terrified!

"We were to blame... for letting such an accident occur."

Lei Dongtian uttered, "However, after we had inquired about it, we discovered that the person involved in this had an extraordinary origin!"

Alarmed, Yun Yang continued to probe, "If I may daringly ask, who was this person?

"The strength of this man is remarkable. He seems to have a mystical power that can turn himself into a tornado. It was this man who swept my fiancee away. However, to say he's indomitably strong, may not be entirely apt... "uttered Lei Dongtian loftily.

Yun Yang was so shaken that he even stood up and said, "Was it Lord Supreme Wind?"

Lei Dongtian nodded, "So, Brother Yun knows of Lord Supreme Wind as well."

With his face palpitated, Yun Yang smiled wryly and said, "As a citizen of Yutang, how can I not know about Lord Supreme Wind? Brother Lei, it seems that there might be some difficulties in this."

Lei Dongtian asked, "Oh? How can it be troublesome? It can't be too difficult to look for a person with your identity as the son of Marquis of Heavenly Cloud, am I right?"

"If it was only to look for someone, a person, even if you were to look for ten people or hundred of them, it won't be difficult at all. However, it is a big problem if it involves Lord Supreme Wind!" Yun Yang took a deep breath. His face was solemn and his voice had turned weak to the point that it was barely audible.

"Even if Lord Supreme Wind is Yutang's hero, he can't simply be intervening in others' family matter, can he? Was there a reason for him to snatch someone else's wife?"

Lei Dongtian pretended to look terribly upset, "No matter where this matter is carried to, the theory of this should still stand!"

As if having a toothache, Yun Yang cried, "Sigh, Brother Lei does not fully know this matter."

Lei Dongtian asked, "Please do teach me, Brother Yun."

Yun Yang's face was troubled. Faintly, he uttered, "Brother Lei... you ..."

He looked up at Lei Dongtian. His glance was filled with indecision.

Lei Dongtian thought in his heart; were there other internal stories pertaining to this? Could it be that this Lord Supreme Wind has had some other relations?

He was watching Yun Yang attentively. He then suddenly bowed deeply to Yun Yang and said, "Brother Yun, please enlighten me!"

With a solemn face, Yun Yang took a deep breath. After a long time, he finally made the decision and said, "Brother Lei, although it seems like we have known each other for long, this matter is simply too complicated to be shared!"

Lei Dongtian solemnly said, "If it wasn't complicated, I wouldn't have come to seek help from Brother Yun so hastily ."

Yun Yang pondered and said, "This is Brother Lei's first time stepping out of the family doors and into this secular world, right?"

"Right indeed." Lei Dongtian agreed.

"Well, I guess not only is this your first time stepping out from home, but you've been giving chase all the way to Tiantang City after coming out, am I right?" Yun Yang asked.

"Yes, that is true." Lei Dongtian knew that Yun Yang was going somewhere with this, so he answered frankly.

He was going to see what else did Yun Yang have to say, whether he was able to speak out of 'justice'.

"It also means that… after Brother Lei had left your house and before meeting me, you have not met any other person from any other country?" Yun Yang continued to ask in a serious tone.

"Yes. I did not meet any." Lei Dongtian was beginning to understand the innuendo within, although it still wasn't very clear.

"The reason for this is simple." Yun Yang could be seen anxiously scratching his head," However I …am still uncertain of whether I should be telling you this. Brother Lei, as this concerns the fate of my country and it is also the secret that was only known to the few higher-ups of Yutang, the consequences will be unimaginable if it leaks out after I tell you."

Lei Dongtian uttered solemnly,"Rest assured, Brother Yun. I am not someone of this secular world. The existence and prosperity of countries in this worldly realm mean nothing to us!"

He then continued, " Since it is an exclusive secret known only to the several higher-ups of Yutang, Brother Yun you…"

Yun Yang smiled proudly and said, "My father, Marquis of Heavenly Cloud... Despite the title a mere marquis... he is, in fact, the biological brother of His Majesty!"

With his eyes widened with surprise, Lei Dongtian replied, "How disrespectful I have been. It turns out that Brother Yun is from a noble-blooded royal family!"

Yun Yang face immediately became relaxed. Faintly he uttered, "Brother Lei is looking too highly upon me. Strictly speaking, my father is but only the late emperor's illegitimate son ... His identity is not one to be brought up at the table..."

Lei Dongtian nodded and said, "Rest assured Brother Yun. Considering that you are willing to frankly disclose the background of your family, I, Lei Dongtian, am your friend of this lifetime."

The promise made by Lei Dongtian was not to be treated lightly. One should have known that the rank of his strength was more or less tantamount to that of Ling Xiaozui, the most powerful person within the Tianxuan Continent. Yun Yang was fortunate to have such support!

Lei Dongtian felt that the tale had merit.

Lei Dongtian did not think that the background of Yun Yang would be a lie. Although he had yet to inquire about it, many would know about this.

Yun Yang was not able to fool him at this point.

However, bearing in mind that he was willing to disclose such a sordid fact about his family background, it seemed peculiar that he would feel restraint in telling the story concerning the Nine Supremes. This was worthy to be pondered upon.

As for Lei Dongtian's given promise, it was not only empty words. If Yun Yang really had no connection with Supreme Wind nor Ji Lingxi, there was no harm in granting him a little benefit. After all, Yun Yang's classy demeanor and speech, his grace, and image, were very much liked by Lei Dongtian!

This was a proof of the fact that it was always a plus point to have extraordinarily great appearance!

"Brother Lei, I am going to tell this only once." Yun Yang said, "Out from my mouth, into your ears."

Lei Dongtian nodded solemnly. Seeing that Yun Yang was so serious over this, he could not help but to get a little nervous himself. Solemnly he uttered, "Do not worry. No one else will know."

Just as Yun Yang was about to speak, his expression showed a trace of doubt. After pondering for a while he uttered, "Actually, forget about it, Brother Lei. Just pardon this young brother, it is…"

Lei Dongtian was stunned. What? I had pulled down my pants and this was all that you have shown to me?

Lei Dongtian hurriedly followed up and asked, "Brother Yun, if you still have any concerns, why not say it out loud."

Yun Yang kept shaking his head, "No, no, no. I can't. I can't tell."

Lei Dongtian frowned. Suddenly, he extended his right hand and with a swipe across his ring on his left hand, a large piece of seven-colored jade appeared out of thin air!

As soon as this mystical palm-sized jade appeared, the spiritual Qi in the room bristled with intensity, making the three people perk up.

"Brother Yun, the moment I saw you today, I felt as if we had known each other for a long time. This piece of jade is this elder brother's meeting gift to you, please do accept it. " Lei Dongtian offered the jade with a magnificent flourish.

Now it seemed like the 'forging ties' and being friends could no longer move Yun Yang.

Hence, Lei Dongtian had changed the strategy. He began to lure him with benefits instead.

Yun Yang's eyes were staring right at the jade, "This is ..."

"This is just a seven-colored jade. We, as cultivators, can use this as a supplement to enhance our cultivation base. Just a piece of this spiritual jade is enough to advance your current cultivation base a leap forward." explained Lei Dongtian.

Lei Dongtian was very satisfied with Yun Yang's reaction.

These country bumpkins. A mere seven-colored jade was enough to shock him to this extent?

To imagine that you've seen the secular world. Let's see whether you were going, to tell the truth later.

Yun Yang picked up the jade and looked at it for a while. Letting out a sigh, he was extremely at odds with himself. He then shook his head and said, "No ... I still can't tell. This matter has too many implications. Brother Lei, stop putting me in a difficult position ..."

Despite his words, his hand, which was holding the seven-colored jade, had not released it's grip on the valuable item.

The implied meaning was deep indeed.

Having seen his hesitation, Lei Dongtian beamed faintly. With another swipe across the ring, pieces of colorful spiritual jades appeared, gleaming brightly.

Two pieces.

Three!

Five!

Ten pieces!

Fifteen ... and twenty pieces!

Lei Dongtian then halted. Earnestly he said, "As long as Brother Yun can tell the whole story, these shall be elder brother's little tokens of appreciation."
