Nine Yang Sword Saint

Not having a meeting with them? It was completely unreasonable. The Fall City Sword Sect and the Hidden Sect were closely related to each other. How could he not meet them? It would be equivalent to admitting he was an imposter if Yang Dingtian insisted on not meeting Yun Potian, and that was also the reason why he didn’t dare to meet Yun Potian.

“It was really coincidental. Sect Head Yun Potian just so happens to pass by Northwest Continent. Hearsay, the Hidden Sect disciple, had graced the Cloud Heaven City with his presence. He had journeyed for several nights just so to meet you.” Yang Yan spoke, “Young Lord Wu Ming, are you going to meet them or not?”

Immediately, Yang Dingtian could sense that Yang Yan’s tone had become somewhat gloomy and inscrutable.

This old fox had suspected Yang Dingtian’s identity long ago. Therefore, his current attitude appeared to be so unsubtle.

“I shall meet.” Yang Dingtian replied directly.

He didn’t even hesitate because he couldn’t. It would arouse an even greater suspicion so long as he hesitated for a moment.

Once this suspicion broke beyond a certain degree, Yang Yan would make his move and probe out. By then, the situation would no longer be reversible.

Immediately, Yang Yan was slightly startled. After that, he bowed, “Good. In that case, Young Lord Wu Ming, this way, please!”

After which, Yang Yan led the way and brought Yang Dingtian to the conference hall.

Yang Dingtian pretended to be indifferent about it as he followed suit. However, in his heart, he had almost suffocated due to his nervousness. After all, he was going to face the most unprecedentedly intense and dangerous moment.

*****************************************

Yang Dingtian ran into a lot of Cloud Heaven City disciples as he followed Yang Yan towards the conference hall.

All the disciples would bow and greet him the moment they would see him. However, Yang Dingtian still saw the doubt in their eyes even though they had tried their best to conceal it.

It was strange that someone was suspecting his identity. However, this was no longer the case since the Cloud Heaven City had actually allowed them to show their suspicion openly. Without a doubt, this was a privilege given by the upper echelons of Cloud Heaven City, so much that they encouraged it. It was to the extent that even the lowest-ranked Cloud Heaven City disciples put forth suspicious gazes once they saw him and had forgotten to revere him.

The conference hall was inside the biggest castle in Cloud Heaven City. It was no less than several thousand square meters and was sufficient to contain several hundred to a thousand people in it.

Immediately, all of the gazes were cast over uniformly after Yang Dingtian had walked into the hall.

There were close to 200 people within the conference hall as they sat orderly around it. All of them were discussing spiritedly before Yang Dingtian walked in. However, the instant Yang Dingtian walked in, they became quiet.

“Greetings to Young Lord Wu Ming.”

Finally, someone had initiated the greeting with a bow.

Immediately, a hundred over of them inside the hall bowed and greeted as they bent over slightly.

However, there were two of them who didn’t do so.

A handsome and arrogant youth and a middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows and beautiful beard. They sat at the middle seat arrogantly. When they saw Yang Dingtian walked in, their gazes shot over and pierced Yang Dingtian like lightning.

It was especially so for that middle-aged man. His eyes were as penetrating as a thorn as if he wanted to see through Yang Dingtian fully.

This middle-aged man with beautiful bread ought to be Fall City Sword Sect Head, Yun Potian, while that arrogant and handsome youth should be his son, Yun Wuxin.

Yang Yan stepped forward and greeted, “Sect Head Yun, this is the Hidden Sect disciple. Young Lord Wu Ming.”

Yang Dingtian held an indifferent complexion as he looked at Yun Potian unenthusiastically.

“Oh?” As before, Yun Potian hadn’t stood up. He swept his gaze up and down at Yang Dingtian and spoke, “My Hidden Sect disciple actually ventured to the outside world? How come I’m unaware of it?”

Once the words were spoken, everyone’s complexion turned slightly startled as they revealed hints of excitement. Subsequently, everyone’s gaze fell onto Yang Dingtian immediately.

Sparks had been splattered everywhere right from the start!

Yun Potian didn’t bother to gloss over and had unexpectedly questioned Yang Dingtian’s identity right from the start.

Yang Dingtian frowned slightly. Yun Potian’s arrogance was really immense. Furthermore, he kept on saying his Hidden Sect. It seemed like he had completely thought of himself as the representative from the Hidden Sect to this world.

In fact, Fall City Sword Sect had already taken up a huge advantage because of this.

The Fall City Sword Sect strength wasn’t very strong. Their ancestry was merely in the Master class. Although they were one of the Nine Clans, their strength was far inferior to Northwest Qin Clan, so much that they were even slightly weaker than the Cloud Heaven City. But because they had the benefit of being under the Hidden Sect, no one practically dared to offend them. Of course, this was also because they hadn’t infringed upon the major factions’ fundamental interests.

Yang Dingtian was able to sense the intensive hostility Yun Potian had for him clearly. After thinking about it, he immediately understood the primary reason for this.

The Hidden Sect was an enormous resource. If the Hidden Sect kept on secluding themselves from the world, the Fall City Sword Sect would already be able to dominate this resource. But once the Hidden Sect disciple was to appear in this world, the Fall City Sword Sect would lose its special status.

Therefore, although the Fall City Sword Sect had received a huge grace from the Hidden Sect, they earnestly wished that the Hidden Sect disciples would never appear in this world. Therefore, the first reaction from Fall City Sword Sect was to question Yang Dingtian intensively.

Previously, they had not met Yang Dingtian before. Therefore, they did not have any relevant evidence on him. The reason why they were questioning him was because of their personal interest. They couldn’t help but wish that this Hidden Sect’s Wu Ming was fake.

Currently, Yun Potian was looking at the rumored Hidden Sect disciple, Wu Ming. He was a Master rank expert. Therefore, he could faintly feel that Yang Dingtian’s aura and energy wasn’t very strong. Immediately, he was elated. However, his expression and gaze became even colder and incisive. Immediately, he put forth his doubts.

“You actually have the impertinence to impersonate a Hidden Sect disciple and had infringed on my Fall City Sword Sect benefit. Regardless of who you are, I must beat you down to the 18th level of hell.”

When Yang Dingtian heard Yun Potian’s direct questioning, his reaction was somewhat startling.

Yun Potian’s face grew even colder as he commented, “Did you hear what I asked? Why does my Fall City Sword Sect have no idea that the Hidden Sect disciple had ventured into the outside world? Please give me an explanation for this.”

Yun Potian’s attitude became even more aggressive and unbridled. He had placed his seniority so high that it was aloof and remote.

Immediately, everyone stared at Yang Dingtian closely as they awaited his reply.

Yang Dingtian wrinkled his eyebrows slightly as he spoke coldly, “What does your Fall City Sword Sect count as? Why do I need to inform you when I travel around the world?”

Immediately, everyone’s expression changed when the words were spoken. Never had they imagined that Wu Ming’s attitude was even more arrogant and cold.

Yun Potian’s complexion turned unsightly. Subsequently, he raised his head and laughed.

“In this world, who doesn’t know that my Fall City Sword Sect and the Hidden Sect was like a family and of a common lineage. If the Hidden Sect had sent disciples over, how could I be unaware of it?” Yun Potian replied coldly.

Yang Dingtian replied nonchalantly, “You think too highly of yourself. In fact, currently, there is barely anyone who knows of your Fall City Sword Sect in the Hidden Sect. When I came out and heard that there was unexpectedly an additional Fall City Sword Sect in the Three Sects, Nine Clans, Twenty Seven Branches this time, I couldn’t help but be slightly astonished. You actually dare to use your position to bully and intimidate others. I will definitely report this once I return.”

“Impudent!” Yun Potian yelled angrily, “Are you looking for death? Clearly, it is you who is impersonating as the Hidden Sect disciple to achieve your hidden agendas. Quickly expose yourself. Otherwise, you shall face a tragic end today.”

Yang Yan’s face immediately revealed a trace of a smile when he saw Yun Potian turning angry, “Sect Head Yun, calm down, calm down. This matter is of importance. We still need to pay attention to the evidence.”

Yang Yan’s words caused Yun Potian to calm down slightly. Subsequently, he looked towards Yang Dingtian and smiled coldly, “Alright. You said that you are the Hidden Sect disciple? What evidence do you have? What keepsake do you have? In this world, not anyone can impersonate as my Hidden Sect disciple.”

Of course, at this moment, Yang Dingtian could also retort and say what kind of evidence did he hold to say that he was impersonating as a Hidden Sect disciple. Or perhaps, Yang Dingtian could also say that his sword technique was already sufficient to prove his identity?

However, Yang Dingtian didn’t say it and had only stared at Yun Potian coldly.

Because Hidden Sect disciples were definitely arrogant and aloof, how could they possibly degenerate themselves to content against a dispute of words? Therefore, he acted as if he was too disdain to reply, as this was the best way to respond.

“Hmph! You think that you can just act as if you are unaffected by it and keep quiet?” Yun Potian commented coldly, “If you are the Hidden Sect disciple, your cultivation would be astonishing and would greatly exceed everyone here. Therefore, I simply need to test you out a little and would be able to expose your impersonation.”

The moment the words were spoken, Yang Dingtian’s heart suddenly jumped.

Yun Potian continued, “Of course, such a small character like you is still insufficient for me to come forth and teach you a lesson myself. My son, Yun Wuxin, is a one star Martial Ancestor class expert. He is just competent enough to test you, impostor trash.”

Subsequently, Yun Potian looked toward everyone and commented, “Everyone, today, I shall let everyone witness a good show. Wuxin, go forth!”

“Yes!” Immediately, that arrogant and handsome youth leaped over lightly as if he didn’t have any weight. He landed before Yang Dingtian, and the gaze at which he looked at Yang Dingtian was filled with a cold and gloomy smile.

“My son, go and expose the imposter. There’s no need to show any mercy.” Yun Potian commented nonchalantly, “Of course, you don’t need to kill him because we still need to capture him back to the Heaven Dao Union headquarters and let him suffer from the engulfment of ten thousand snakes as punishment before dying!”

Engulfment of ten thousand snakes was the cruelest punishment in the Heaven Dao Union. It was only used on those criminals who were guilty of terrible crimes.

“Yes, father!” Yun Wuxin replied. Subsequently, he looked towards Yang Dingtian and smiled coldly, “Imposter, if you’re to admit your guilt now, you might perhaps be able to die comfortably. By the time I make my move and expose you, I can guarantee that you will experience the most extreme pain in the world that will cause you to wish for death but couldn’t attain it.”

After hearing Yun Wuxin’s words, Yang Dingtian didn’t show any reaction and was still looking at him nonchalantly.

“Haha. You are still acting even at this time.” Yun Potian yelled coldly, “Make your move!”

“Yes!” Yun Wuxin suddenly drew out his sword.

Immediately, everyone widened their eyes and wait for the great battle to erupt.

If the Young Lord Wu Ming before them were genuine, he would be able to defeat the one star Martial Ancestor rank Yun Wuxin with ease.

Without a doubt, Wu Ming would be an imposter if he were to suffer a defeat.

The most dangerous and unfavorable situation to Yang Dingtian had arrived! Finally, someone had made a move and wanted to reveal his impersonation.

A one star Martial Ancestor class expert was two classes or 16 stages above Yang Dingtian. His cultivation was dozens to a hundred times higher than Yang Dingtian. Even if Yang Dingtian was extremely heaven-defying, he still held no chance of winning.

In other words, once Yun Wuxin made his move, he would be able to kill Yang Dingtian instantly. No surprises were going to happen.

However, Yang Dingtian wouldn’t let him make his move!
