Was Yun Yang's method wrong? It seemed correct from his perspective and point of view, his train of thought.

The main reason that contributed to the past situation was the fall of Venerable Lord Saber. Four Venerable Lords had gone to replace Lei Dongtian, but were inhibited by his skills; in the end, it was Mr. Nian's timely appearance that suppressed their strong opponent with his stronger ability. As for now, the main reason that had brought about the current situation was still the demise of a Venerable Lord and the pursuit of his killer. Everything was similar to the last, so the Four Seasons Tower's relief forces had to come to provide assistance. If the formidable force whom Yun Yang caught a glimpse of the other day came, what was there to be worried about?

The problem now was that Mr. Nian might still come, but he would most definitely not help the trio. He would only take away the God's Bones that lay within the three of them after they died.

"No backup!" Venerable Lord Snow said glumly.

"How is this possible? The Four Seasons Tower's strength is monstrous, how can…" Yun Yang cried out. "This…"

Venerable Lord Sword snorted and said grimly, "Forget it. You were the person whom Ice gave his last words to, you know lots about us. I shall just tell you the truth. We just knew that we've been used by the Four Seasons Tower; we are called Venerable Lords but in truth, we are only puppets. A good chunk of the reason for Ice's fall was the tower's intentions…"

Yun Yang was stunned. "I beg your pardon?"

Venerable Lord Snow wanted to stop Venerable Lord Sword from speaking; after all, the matter was nothing to be proud of, especially when it was an unknown if Yun Yang would change his stance after knowing about it. In spite of this, it did not happen in time. Venerable Lord Sword had narrated the main points in one breath, thus Venerable Lord Snow sighed after some consideration, without adding a single word.

"This is how it is…" Once he started speaking, Venerable Lord Sword poured everything out easily. The longer they kept it within them, the more they felt like they would go crazy. Since they had an audience now and said audience was the Four Seasons Tower's enemy, it wouldn't hurt to express their feelings to someone who wouldn't help the tower anyway.

The more they thought about it, the more they realized it was fine to tell Yun Yang the truth; it would help bring them together in terms of perspective.

Yun Yang listened to Venerable Lord Sword in disbelief. After a long time, he finally breathed out and murmured, "Oh my God… this world is petrifying…"

"You will never see anything more terrifying!" Venerable Lord Sword could not help jabbering and said, "How old are you? How much evil have you actually seen? It's too soon for you to comment! What's most evil in this world is but a person's heart. The rest? It's not even worthy of mention!"

Yun Yang sighed, looking a little dejected, and said, "If so, aren't the three of you alone without help now? What - what should you do?"

Venerable Lord Sword scoffed and replied, "Let me tell it to you straight. For us, of course, we would want to avenge our brother's death. Secondly, we also want to cause some trouble to the Four Seasons Tower! We have to repay them in the same way if they intend to utilize our deaths - we repay favors, so must we return the grudge!"

Yun Yang looked like he was still dazed as he listened to the man.

"This is how things are." Venerable Lord Sword said honestly, "Therefore, the Four Seasons Tower won't provide any support for sure."

"Hold on…" Yun Yang raised a hand to stop him and continued with a frown, "No… This may not be like what you said. Please repeat it. I need to ponder the workings behind this."

Venerable Lord Sword was about to argue with a frown of his own. He was already in a bad mood and it irritated him to no end that a child had to interrogate him and ask him to repeat himself like this. He would have loved to kill the child right there and then.

"I mean, there may be something that we can turn to our advantage." Yun Yang explained kindly, "Just tell me again. I didn't hear it clearly as you narrated it earlier, I may have places I missed out. To plan something, it's a must to carefully consider things over and over again. I'm not asking for nothing."

Venerable Lord Sword reigned in his temper, sucking in a deep breath before letting it out slowly. He repeated the story once again, looking bored and gloomy.

"I understand it now, I understand it thoroughly." Yun Yang said, "According to your knowledge, everything that is happening now has become your own issues entirely - they're no longer related to the Four Seasons Tower, is that so?"

The trio was dumbfounded - was it not so? Wasn't it obvious?

Yun Yang spoke, "You fellows probably think that the Four Seasons Tower has mistreated all of you, and even killed your brother, whether directly or indirectly. Isn't that right? You think that you shouldn't serve the tower anymore; you want to leave, you want to avenge your brother's death and it'd be best if you can cause some trouble for the tower at the same time - then all of you can leave unscathed, live in seclusion in the forest. This is basically the big picture, am I right?"

The trio nodded, still confused as to why Yun Yang was reiterating a fact that everyone knew and was certain of.

"There's a key point here that you all seem to have missed, or maybe are certain of too soon. The situation now is that all of you don't see yourselves as the Four Seasons Tower's men, but the tower doesn't consider you three as outsiders!"

Once Yun Yang said this, the trio was stunned.

"Why do you think the Four Seasons Tower won't send you help but give you trouble instead? How is this possible?"

Yun Yang said with wide eyes, "The whole world, including Mr. Nian; do they know that you fellows are aware that you are puppets? What they know seems to only be that you fellows are still the Four Seasons Tower's loyal higher authority. Isn't this right?"

"Then, you fellows have met some trouble, a crisis you can't handle. It's only a matter, of course, to ask the tower for help!"

"In fact, at its core, today's situation is no different from Lei Dongtian's battle the other day. One is fast, while the other is slow. Therefore, it's only right for you all to ask the Four Seasons Tower for support!"

"What's more, if you don't ask for help and carry this issue yourselves, it will only show your guilty conscience, that you have started to think differently. Judging from the crisis you are in, the Four Seasons Tower will send people to hunt all of you down instead, to take back the God's Bone!"

"However, if you were to ask for relief support with confidence, I don't think the tower will ignore your cry for help. They would definitely send experts to assist. Do you think my reasoning is amiss?"

As the trio listened to Yun Yang, their eyes shone as realization struck them.

"As a result, whether it's to save yourselves or to seek revenge, this cry for help must happen! Furthermore, there will definitely be an answer to your call!"

Yun Yang continued his counseling, "As for the reason of your conflict with the assassin organizations, it's very simple; it is none other than the fact that Venerable Lord Ice was killed and you fellows were seeking revenge from anguish. The reason is plain, like when you were looking for Lei Dongtian back then. Is there any fault in my reasoning?"

"The three of you have not met Venerable Lord Ice before his death. This isn't so hard to prove now, is it?"

"The current crux of the matter, perhaps, what matters the most, is that the Four Seasons Tower doesn't know that you know what you shouldn't know. Based on this premise, what is there that you can't do?"

"The fact is, be it the three of you or the Four Seasons Tower, all of you have a compelling reason to act - to retrieve the Bone of the Ice God! The only difference is merely the fact that you're fighting for your brother's body while the Four Seasons Tower will never allow the God's Bone to fall into anybody's hands, am I right?"

Yun Yang spread his hands. "As long as the Four Seasons Tower doesn't know that the Bone of Ice God is with you, there is no flaw in this case!"

"One of the reasons will then be your alibi for Venerable Lord Ice's death which caused the Bone of Ice God to go to the Hall of Crimson Blade while the Hall of Crimson Blade has ganged up with The Merciless Tower to secure the bone; the three of you want to retrieve it, correct?"

Yun Yang heaved a sigh and thought to himself, "It is lucky I am here. These three dummies didn't plan to do it at all… If I hadn't come, this dragnet that I spent so much effort to set up would only catch a few small fish and I would die of disappointment!"
