Chapter 118 - Boring Conference

T/N: Sorry for the long absent. Was planning to be back last week but I got busy. Anyhow, I am looking into changing the schedule a bit to avoid a burn out like this one. For now it will remain the same but expect it to change soon (most definitely gonna be less chapters/week). Thank you all for the messages of support. Sorry for not responding but I haven't turn on this blog for about a week.

Yang Tian returned to the room and drank tea while waiting for Ye Wen Tian. After a while, Ye Wen Tian walked in with a severe expression. Without needing to ask, Yang Tian knew that it had something to do with that matter.

After sitting down and drinking some tea, Ye Wen Tian said solemnly:

- I've reported the matter to the President and he said that it has something to do with the Devil Sect.

- Devil Sect?

- That's right. Recently the President have been getting reports that many clans have fallen under the sway of the Devil Sect. He never publicly revealed this but only investigated in secret. Although we don't have the exact number of how many clans. It isn't just a few.

Yang Tian felt a bit confused:

- What does this have to do with what I told you before.

Ye Wen Tian's face didn't change:

- You still don't understand? If the clan in possession of that poison is in league with the Devil Sect, they must have produced no small amount of poison.  If that's so then our strength in this war would diminished significantly. As you know, most Cultivators are below Golden Core and they numbered more than a million. How devasting would it be if they all got poisoned.

- Have you never thought about making an antidote?

- Of course we have an antidote. However it'll take a day for it to take affect. In that time, they could've killed you many times over.

- If that's so then you can also poison the Devil Sect's Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

- The Devil Sect has at most no more than 10 thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Tell me, who would suffer more?

Yang Tian didn't care that much:

-  So just see this as a war of Golden Cores. Under the attack of hundreds of Golden Core Cultivators, even a Nascent Soul Cultivators can only bury his hatred and die. 

- Aizzz, I wonder how many people would die this time around.

Seeing Ye Wen Tian worried, Yang Tian still had no intention on helping. This was their battle to fight and he wasn't going to interfere in it.

- I just remembered something. Tell me, of the people participating today, does anyone know my appearance?

Not knowing why Yang Tian would ask such a thing, Ye Wen Tian shook his head:

- I don't think so. They are here because they've heard of your reputation. Aside from the Dark Society and the four great powers, no one knows of your appearance.

Yang Tian sighed in relief. If those people knew his face then wouldn't he be spied on everywhere he went. With so many people, he couldn't just kill them all. At least not the current him anyways.

He shook his body a bit and to the surprise of Ye Wen Tian, Yang Tian transformed into a different person. His face looked ordinary and was very young. He had a perverted grin and his figure was quite short making him looked like a lowlife.

Ye Wen Tian's eyes went wide as he pointed at Yang Tian's face:

- Why did you have to do that?

- Do you want everyone to know my true appearance?

- Still, you didn't have to look like that.

Yang Tian just casually adjusted his appearance a bit so wasn't quite sure what he looked like know. However he was still supremely confidence in his skill and said with a smile:

- Why, don't I look very handsome?

Ye Wen Tian gulped and then shake his head a bit hesitantly:

- A bit, but still...

- Still what?

- You look a bit like a freak.

...

After a while, Ye Wen Tian stepped out with a young man. His face was so plain that if one didn't pay close attention, they'll forget he even existed. After being called a freak by Ye Wen Tian, Yang Tian's pride was hurt so he had to adjust his face one more time.

Following Ye Wen Tian's suggestion, Yang Tian chose a face that couldn't be anymore plain. The two went to a basement underneath the mansion. The entrance was heavily guarded. Even though he was brought by Ye Wen Tian, he was still thoroughly examined before being allowed to enter.

Ye Wen Tian explained that it was to avoid an enemy sneaking in. After all, Cultivators who knew shapeshifting spells numbered quite a bit. Yang Tian shook his head:

- If the Devil Sect has control of the great clans then your meeting today wasn't even a secret in the first place.

- It's fine, we are only going to make a general announcement. The details will be discussed between the Dark Society and the other 3 great powers.

He and Ye Wen Tian walked into a large banquet hall. The walls were made of solid metal and the ceiling was illuminated by many light bulbs making the place very bright. Yang Tian was seated next to the President of the Dark Society. Seeing Yang Tian sitting down, the elder turned to him and smile. Yang Tian was accompanied by Ye Wen Tian was the elder immediately knew who he was.

Yang Tian wasn't interested in the old man s he only nodded in response and then closed his eyes. The elder saw that Yang Tian didn't want to talk so he didn't bother him.

More and more people poured into the hall and soon the seats of the three great powers were all filled. Ye Wen Tian stood up and said:

- Welcome, esteemed guests. I am Ye Wen Tian, a Division Leader of the Dark Society. All of you here today already know the purpose of this meeting so I'll cut to the chase. The movement of the Devil Sect recently...

Yang Tian was actually falling asleep. This conference to him was far too boring. In the middle of his nap, the elder light tapped Yang Tian's shoulder and he immediately woke up. He noticed that Ye Wen Tian was currently looking at him and telling him to step up.

Knowing that it was his turn, Yang Tian went up to Ye Wen Tian's position. He didn't say anything unnecessary and cut right to the chase:

- I know that many of you are here today to meet me. However I advise that you focus on dealing with the Devil Sect and that Blood Devil. I will not be participating in this matter. Another thing, I'm not interested in any earthly power so you don't have to worry night and day that I'll somehow take it away from you. Even if I am interested, you can't do anything anyways so your worries are for naught either way.

As he said that, a terrifying aura emanated from Yang Tian's body. Everyone within the hall felt as if they were on a small boat facing against a massive storm. At any moment, the boat could break and they would all drown. After he finished his speech, Yang Tian's retracted his aura and without caring what anyone thought, returned to his seat.

Ye Wen Tian looked at the President, shook his head and smiled helplessly. The elder nodded and took Yang Tian's place to continue the meeting.

As soon as Yang Tian returned to his seat, he sealed off his sixth sense. He felt that many people were trying to contact him telepathically. They were truly a bunch of troublesome people. Only when Ye Wen Tian approached and tapped on his shoulder did Yang Tian opened his eyes and followed him out.

After leaving the protective barrier behind, he followed Ye Wen Tian back to the room before. Only now did Yang Tian say:

- Since everything is done here, I should head back.

Seeing Yang Tian about to leave, Ye Wen Tian quickly stopped him:

- Wait, that was just business with the lesser powers. The part after is the main reason we are here. We have to discuss a detailed plan of action with the other greater powers.

- No, I only promised to attend this one. Anything else have nothing to do with me.

Ye Wen Tian saw that Yang Tian was adamantly leaving and could only use his hidden card. He feigned a sigh:

- Do you really have to leave? That's a shame. I actually wanted to discuss some good news with you.

Yang Tian pursed his lips in disdain:

- No need to make that face with me. Don't I know you well enough by now? Ever since I met you, the only thing you brought me is trouble. What good can you bring me now?

Ye Wen Tian's old face made an embarrassed expression:

- You are wrong this time. I wanted to introduce you to a bit of good fortune. However if you are not free then forget it. She is truly beautiful, such a shame.

- How can you know any beauties. From what I see, it must some middle aged woman. You should keep her to yourself but remember to be careful of Ling-er's mother.

Under Yang Tian's blatant assault, Ye Wen Tian didn't put any of it to heart:

- What if I tell you that she's the Nan Gong Clan's young miss?

- What Nan Gong Clan? Wait, you said the Nan Gong Clan's young miss, Nan Gong Bing Yun?

Ye Wen Tian was a bit surprised:

- You know of her?
