"Of the three days, only one day has passed ." Yun Yang was a slightly shocked. "You’re admitting defeat? This junior will win without a fight?"

The elder gazed grudgingly towards Yun Yang.

Win without a fight? What f*cking fight do you want?

The resentful gaze almost had Yun Yang laughing out loud.

"Alright then. Let us go back and have an all-fish feast. We can’t waste this entire day’s effort!" Yun Yang was straightforward as well, assuming the gracious role of the winner since the other party had admitted defeat.

He picked the bucket up and looked at the abundant Kirin Fish inside. After some consideration, Yun Yang kept about a dozen of them that were over three catties and poured the remaining ones back into the water. "This is the only time this will happen, alright? You all have to be careful in the future.. Don’t let any one else catch you again.."

The elder’s eyes practically bulged out of their sockets before bouncing back in again.

Oh my, this child is releasing so many Kirin Fish? Those are invaluable treasures!

Those are good stuff that even money can’t buy!

However, the following scene stunned the old man into disbelief again.

Not a single one of the released fishes left. Instead, they form a neat queue in the water as they popped their heads out and nodded at Yun Yang.

Were they actually thanking Yun Yang’s grace?

Then all the Kirin Fish vanished, leaving nothing else other than some bubbles.

Both Yun Yang and the old man were dumbfounded.

The world was unpredictable and worldly matters were always miraculous, yet there was such a thing! Wonders were everywhere indeed.

What happened next though, shocked two of them even more. Not only was the old man stupefied, Yun Yang’s eyes almost fell out too.

The big fish in the bucket had all straightened their bodies and stuck their upper halves out of the water, looking at Yun Yang with rounded eyes, as if pleading for their lives.

There were even two round beads of tears slowly rolling down from the eyes of the biggest fish.

Yun Yang and the elder felt the top of their heads prickling with numbness.

Was this a f*cking fish at all?

Yun Yang sighed, his hands gripping at the edge of the bucket as he said seriously, "I don’t want to eat you little ones, but my physique really needs it.. I have no other way.."

The biggest fish tilted its head, its beady eyes staring straight at Yun Yang. There was no way of telling if it understood him. Suddenly, its body swayed as it swam to Yun Yang’s right hand; with a pop of head, its mouth landed on Yun Yang’s hand.

A ball of emerald green liquid spluttered out from the fish’s mouth onto the top of Yun Yang’s hand.

It was one big lump of green.

The emerald green liquid vanished immediately upon landing on the back of Yun Yang’s hand as if it had diffused into Yun Yang’s body.

After the biggest fish had spat out the green liquid, the iridescent radiance of the scales on its body dimmed immediately. It did not stop though. After some build-up, it spat another mouthful of emerald liquid with a sound from its throat.

It was the same emerald green liquid as before, diffusing directly into Yun Yang’s skin.

However, upon spitting the second mouthful of emerald liquid, the seven scales on the big fish dulled, losing all their brilliance.

It was holding on, however, wanting to spit the third mouthful..

Yun Yang felt his heart clench. He stopped the fish at once and picked it up. "Enough, enough. Keep the rest to yourself. I’ll let you go."

With a single thought, a ball of air of vitality was delivered into the fish.

With a splash, the fish entered the water. It did not leave immediately, hopping up happily and nodding at Yun Yang in the air. It went back into the water and swam over again, going to and fro for three times; the longing apparent.

"Go." Yun Yang felt his tone becoming gentle. "Don’t get caught again."

The big fish made a big splash and swam towards the deeper water longingly.

Yun Yang sighed. When he turned again, the dozen of fishes in the bucket had all stuck their heads out; their throats were making a slight noise as their eyes stared at him - they all wanted to spit at him..

Yun Yang was exasperated but he was growing more tenderhearted. He put his hand on the side of the wooden bucket, gifting a flow of air of vitality to the fish after each of them gave their gifts, before releasing them into the water.

He was not having the all-fish feast after all. He had won anyway.

The elder watched the shockingly tragic drama of man and fish unfold before him, his eyes already hanging out of their sockets.

He was beyond dumbfounded, his face blank.

There was no shortage of peculiarity in this world.

Seeing that the bucket was left with the last three fish, the old man broke from his trance. He knew he could not let this opportunity go as it would not come around the second time. He approached awkwardly and said, "Excuse me.. Young friend?"

Yun Yang turned and hummed questioningly, "Yes?"

The old man actually blushed as he said, "Can you.. let these three fishes spit on me?"

Yun Yang was stunned. "Oh, certainly."

He then moved aside without hesitation.

The elder placed his hand over only to have the three fish that were preparing to spit swoosh their way back into the wooden bucket. None of them acknowledged him!

Awkward embarrassment was apparent on the elder’s face.

He had never been as compromised in his entire life!

F*cking hell, even fish despise me.

Yun Yang was puzzled as well, going forward in an attempt to persuade them. "Spit at him, it’s the same. It's just spitting anyway.."

The remaining three fish of four to five catties weight in the bucket came up unwillingly and spat on the elder’s hand. Yun Yang then picked them up and did the same thing, delivering the air of vitality to them before sending them back into the water.

A short while later, all three fishes had spat the liquid and no more fish was left in the bucket.

The three fishes swam a few rounds in the water, spitting bubbles to Yun Yang for a moment on the water surface before reluctantly swimming into the deeper water gracefully with a whip of their tails, quickly vanishing.

After some time, the lake recovered its initial serenity.

The old man took in a deep breath and exhaled it. His face became serious, bowing officially to Yun Yang. "Young Friend Yun Yang, I, Ling Xiaozui, am in your favor today! Thank you!"

Although Yun Yang had already guessed it, to have the elder affirm his identity himself at this moment still felt like an earth-shattering shock to him.

Ling Xiaozui!

This was Ling Xiaozui! The acknowledged Unrivaled Expert!

A significant figure like the mythical dragon and one that had a far-reaching impact!

The majesty of a dragon that was far from the worldly realm, Ling Xiaozui who carried only a pot of wine and a sword; he roams the corners of the world, he stands supreme among the world’s heroes!

A living legend, a legend of this lifetime - Ling Xiaozui!

Knowing that the person before him was the living legend in all the myths, the Unrivaled Expert, Ling Xiaozui, Yun Yang maintained a straight face as he smiled. "It is indeed Elder Ling, I’ve guessed right."

Ling Xiaozui’s gaze was bright and clear as he looked at Yun Yang; his entire grace, aura, and even his face had suddenly changed entirely.

It was still the same face, but it emanated an entirely different aura now.

"You’ve explained it just now and found me." Ling Xiaozui’s gaze remained on Yun Yang. "But I still don’t understand. All that you’ve done and the pot of the Prime of Wine? Just for this?"

Yun Yang's chuckle was devoid of humor, and he replied in a serious voice, "Even if I were only the least bit sure, I would have to put in one hundred thousand parts of effort. Elder Ling should understand what I am saying."

Ling Xiaozui was moved as he said, "I see."

He took a good glance at Yun Yang and said, "Young friend, you seem to have lived a wearying life."

Yun Yang wore a faint smile, his gaze faraway. "Who could live easily, living in this world? I’m living in exhaustion but Elder Ling, being someone detached from the world, must have lived in exhaustion before as well?"

He had come all the way here just for a possible guess, having heard from so many intelligence sources. It seemed like a coincidence, but how many strategies were already contained within this coincidence? How could it only be coincidence and luck?

An airy, spiritual aura spilled from Ling Xiaozui’s entire being but his bright eyes that were distinctly monochromatic seemed like those of a curious child.

His nature was such that allowed his martial skills to soar high; it was that very temperament that allowed him to leave so many appealing legends behind, including the admiration of Yun Zui Yue then and the friendship with Yun Yang now.

However, it was also the same spiritual person, a living legend, that had gone against the Four Seasons Tower for over a hundred years of worldly affairs - over a hundred years!

Yet such a legend - the Unrivaled Expert - had not been able to destroy Four Seasons Tower in that hundred years, not even damaging its foundation! The formidability of the Four Seasons Tower had increased to another level in Yun Yang’s eyes.

"But just these three fish doesn't seem to warrant Elder Ling thanking me like this?" Yun Yang asked curiously.

As he spoke, he packed his things.

Fang Mofei was helping to clean up diligently too. An extreme sort of shock was still apparent on Fang Mofei’s face; the dazed look in his eyes was out there on full display as well.

Ling Xiaozui!

Oh - my god..

This was the Unrivaled Expert, acknowledged by the entire world!

Fang Mofei was moving in a trance as he packed their belongings, carelessly shoving Yun Yang’s chair into the water with his buttocks.

It was really a wonder for a seventh peak pinnacle expert to embarrass himself like this!
