As Mr. Nian finished his words and waited for the group’s response, there was no answer; they opted for silence, thus allowing the quietness to permeate the vicinity.

All nineteen people were mute. Their expressions were blank as well; some were pale while some were stern. No longer was there one who looked at ease. After some time, someone finally spoke.

“According to the information we’ve gathered, we can come to a conclusion. Yun Yang’s saber isn’t only exceptionally sharp beyond comparison, it can elongate and retract at will. Such a characteristic is a challenge for our defenses! Our weapons are the crème of the crop but engaged with his saber, our weaponry can, at most hold, out for an instant before being sacrificed. This aspect alone is already an incredible challenge to resolve!”

A man whose chest was drenched in blood stood up to say, “I have more right to speak about this. Yun Yang’s actual cultivation base is masterly, but it’s still an individual’s power. With his treasured saber though, his combat power is raised several times higher. We really can’t compete with his blade’s magnificence if we were to challenge Yun Yang. A careless move means our own execution. If we don’t find a solution to this, I don’t see any chance for us to win!”

“We don’t even know and aren’t even sure how many times our weapons can collide against that treasured saber before it gives way. This is what we call competing skills at the tip of blades, I guess!”

“Not only is Yun Yang a challenge beyond our expectations, but he is also even scarier than Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou combined. Based on our abilities, even if we go alone against the two generations of Unrivaled Experts, we can stand up to them for a while, despite there being no chance of a lucky escape anyway. However, when we went up against Yun Yang, we could barely get the room to fight him off.”

“Besides, Yun Yang’s personal cultivation base level is unusually substantial. We have just made two bouts earlier, but his power, combat force and explosive strength were all comparable to that of a leader’s level. Honestly, even without the saber with him, he’s not at all weaker than Ling Xiaozui back in the day. The combat power he displays now may very well yet to be his maximum potential. Nobody knows how many percent of capability Yun Yang had unleashing earlier; seventy percent, ninety percent, a hundred percent or even just fifty percent!”

“Another aspect that also can’t be overlooked is the sophisticated saber truth used by Yun Yang. It’s the most sublime move I’ve seen my entire life. His forms and styles may be second to none in this world!”

“Combining these three advantages – based on his dominating cultivation base, supported by his unparalleled treasured saber and complemented by his eminent form, the level of danger Yun Yang poses alone is up to par with three men of Ling Xiaozui’s capabilities added together!”

The person sighed deeply. “Our leader’s previous qualms are totally right. It is we who have underestimated the enemy. The current situation… it’s not that I’m applauding others and putting ourselves down, I’m just speaking from the heart. If we don’t come up with a surprise plan in this battle, there’s more than eighty percent chance of success should Yun Yang wish to escape unscathed. On the other hand, we…”

He paused abruptly here and did not continue but everyone understood the unspoken message.

The current situation was that Yun Yang could leave if he wanted to and they would not have too much confidence to block his escape. Even if the battle proceeded to its climax, Yun Yang could come and go as he wished to ensure his safety. Even if he did not win this time, there were opportunities for him to try again. Instead, not only would the Four Seasons Tower suffer immense damage, they would not even be able to secure the battle and warrant the outcome they wanted.

This end was not to their liking, but it was the most likely scenario.

Everyone’s expression was darkening with time.

Before Yun Yang came, before the battle pulled its curtain open, everyone within the Four Seasons Tower was brimming with confidence. All of them thought that the exposure of Yun Yang’s identity had forced him to opt for the final battle out of necessity; it was the doing of the situation, the worst option there was due to the lack of choices. Victory was fully in their grip!

There had been no doubt about this battle’s victory or loss since the very beginning!

In spite of this, the reality now was almost the exact opposite of what they had imagined.

“That girl… that girl’s peculiar backlash is even more terrifying.” One of the men who had an exchange with Ji Lingxi was still drained of all color. “The other two brothers had obviously scored her vital points – one slashed her neck but was blown into the sky and exploded in midair while another stabbed her heart and was killed the same way. What’s more terrorizing is that after being struck twice, she’s not at all hurt.”

“The girl’s cultivation base, according to our evaluation from the many collisions of our weapons, has to be at least the level of Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou. It’s within our initial guess that this cultivation base is the main reason Yun Yang came to the battle with her tagging along. However, if cultivation base was all there was to her, we can tackle it by plotting out some deadly tactics. In fact, we’ve done so too, the process smoother than we expected. However, the final outcome is absurd to even think about. If Yun Yang is a challenge, it’s within reason. The girl’s bizarre retaliation is the true problem… This is our urgency right now.”

Even Mr. Nian looked stumped when this part was being talked about, causing him to forget about everything else.

An overwhelming cultivation base was already a tricky challenge. Their target had to be one who was unafraid of being hurt. This simply severed any means of attack! In addition, she was equipped with a retaliation skill when attacked; unperturbed when she was completely unscathed after being slashed and stabbed, she killed the attackers with a backlash – this was basically cheating!

Yet, this unbelievably ridiculous situation was their reality.

The lethal crux lied at the observer’s recount –”What’s more terrorizing is that after being struck twice, she wasn’t hurt at all.”

The victim whose neck was slashed and heart were pierced did not die but her attackers were killed from the repercussions. This sounded incredibly shocking, but it could be due to the victim’s use of certain arcane magic. The effect would be outstanding the first or second time, but in fact, a sequela existed; it was just that it did not show itself instantly. However, commenting that she was not at all hurt tore this idea apart entirely.

Even if the girl’s defensive arcane magic was limited and had a severe implication to her, could they dispel it when they poured all their manpower into the battle? Furthermore, what if her arcane was flawless? What if it was an impenetrable shield of protection as well as a retaliatory weapon?

That meant that they had no other way. It was simply impossible to kill this woman!

They could not kill her, they could not avoid her, they could not attack her. She was really unafraid of attacks; in fact, she was afraid of them not attacking her!

“This is revolting. She’s even harder to handle than that Yun Yang…” A Four Seasons Tower expert sighed with a twisted face, exclaiming the helplessness he felt.

Mr. Nian’s frown grew deeper.
