Surprised? Didn't See That Coming?
Yang An secretly left the Yang Family the next day. He had the advantage of being reborn and had various informational advantages, so he would subconsciously keep his personal information confidential. Unfortunately, he was still too young.
It was precisely because of this sneaky behavior that the Yang Family only had a partial understanding, leading to misunderstandings. Also Yang An inherited the habit of playing dumb to deceive others, so he did not fully reveal his strength, causing the elders to believe that Yang An had only just begun to grow.
So, not long ago, an elder secretly contacted Upper Splendor Sect. However, due to Yang Mo, the contact did not go smoothly. He only vaguely let Upper Splendor Sect know that a Heavenly Demon might be born in Plumfall City.
Originally Upper Splendor Sect did not intend to pay attention to this kind of information, which was not very detailed. However, the matter of Niu Dingtian had become a big deal. Even though Upper Splendor Sect had two Heavenly Rank experts, they still felt it was frightening. Therefore, after thinking about it, the higher-ups of the Upper Splendor Sect still summoned people.
The elders of the Yang Family were much more efficient than Yang An. Yang An even got a night's rest, while the elders of the Yang Family, after discussing the matter that night, contacted the Upper Splendor Sect and reported Yang An's information. As a result, the Upper Splendor Sect immediately became vigilant.
Of course, due to the Yang Family's erroneous information, Upper Splendor Sect also regarded Yang An as a Heavenly Demon who had not yet grown up. Therefore, Upper Splendor Sect was not too nervous. After the Upper Splendor Sect was originally a famous sect, known throughout the entire Heavenly Secrets Continent, with two outstanding talents and two Heavenly Rank experts.
Especially after receiving two more reinforcements, few people on the entire Heavenly Secrets Continent were aware that the relationship between the Life-and-Death Blade and the Upper Splendor Sect was not simple. In fact, when the Life-and-Death Blade was not strong, it almost married into the Upper Splendor Sect.
Unfortunately, because of his background as the Life-and-Death Blade, he was opposed by the elders of the Upper Splendor Sect at the time. By the time he had his eye on that person and he took power in the Upper Splendor Sect, neither of them were young anymore, so there was no need to make a big fuss.
It was precisely because of this that, in Yang An's memories of his previous life, the Life-and-Death Blade fled this way after its defeat by Niu Dingtian, but unfortunately, it was blocked in Plumfall City before it even reached its destination.
At this moment, in the Water Splendor Hall of the Upper Splendor Sect, four Heavenly Rank experts were sitting. Two of them were women, and the one related to the Life and Life-and-Death Blade was none other than their junior Upper Splendor Sect, Xu Huaying.
The other two Heavenly Rank experts, one of whom wielded the Life Life-and-Death Blade and the other the Heaven's Will Sword, for reasons unknown, also followed the Life-and-Death Blade to the Upper Splendor Sect.
"The news has arrived." Fan Huayue, the senior sister and head of the Upper Splendor Sect, said with a serious expression, "Combining the news about the Yang Family with the information gathered by our spies, this Yang An is most likely also an extraterrestrial demon."
"Another one. Is the heavens trying to destroy my Heavenly Secrets Continent?" Life-and-Death Blade said blankly, his hand involuntarily touching the character "Ox" carved on his face. He already had a psychological trauma from Niu Dingtian.
"Hua Ying, although Niu Dingtian hasn't made a move yet, I think I should leave Upper Splendor Sect as soon as possible!" Life-and-Death Blade said, holding Xu Huaying's hand.
The reason why the Life-and-Death Blade came to the Upper Splendor Sect after Great Cloud Mountain was to teach Xu Huaying what he had learned in that battle. He really didn't have the courage to face Niu Dingtian now.
"Fourth Brother, can't I share any difficulties with you? There's still time, we'll definitely figure out a way." Xu Huaying called Life and Life-and-Death Blade "Fourth Brother," perhaps because Life-and-Death Blade was relatively short.
"You haven't witnessed Niu Dingtian, so you don't know how terrifying he is. My best course of action is to leave you and not drag you into this disaster." The two held hands, shamelessly showering Heaven's Will Sword and Fan Huayue with their affection.
"Furthermore, we should be careful with this newly emerged extraterrestrial demon. If we can appease him, we should do so. Perhaps we can get him to fight Niu Dingtian to the Niu Dingtian. There's no need to necessarily send him away."
"We understand that, of course. After all, the Bull Demon King is powerful now. From the information we've gathered, Yang An has always shown hostility towards Niu Dingtian. If it's not too excessive, we will support him," Fan Huayue nodded and said.
These days, nobody's stupid. Even a fool couldn't reach the level of a Heavenly Rank expert. The so-called irreconcilable conflict between good and evil is a complete joke. If we can use Yang An to deal with Niu Dingtian, that would be the best outcome.
"Those people in the Yang Family were blinded by greed. They actually sold out Yang An for a little bit of power," Xu Huaying said with a sneer. Did those elders of the Yang Family really sell out Yang An because of his identity as the "Demon from Beyond the Heavens"? This identity issue was probably only of concern to Yang An's father, Yang Mo.
There are two real reasons. One is that Yang An's blatant hostility towards Niu Dingtian instilled fear in those people, and they did not want to face Niu Dingtian, which was a complete surrender-like approach.
Another reason was Yang An's desire for control. Because he clearly knew part of the future, Yang An's desire for control was extremely strong. Coupled with his strength, although Yang An's management of the family would bring certain benefits, the power of the elders was greatly reduced. Thus, Yang An was sold out by the Yang Family.
"Is that so?" A ripple appeared in the space, and Yang An stepped out of it. His gaze was extremely cold. He had just overheard the Yang Family saying that they had sold him out.
Yang An wasn't stupid; he was just blinded by the feeling of being in control most of the time after his rebirth. Combining this with the information he had, Yang An quickly understood the truth. However, Yang An wasn't particularly clever either; instead of examining his own mistakes, he felt an unprecedented surge of anger.
Because of his rebirth, Yang An considered himself superior to others, but he was outmaneuvered by inferior people, which ignited his Wrath. "Yang An I've been wholeheartedly thinking of you all, and you still dare to scheme against me!"
The four Heavenly Rank experts Water Splendor Hall were also startled by Yang An's sudden appearance. Then, seeing Yang An's expression and the terrifying aura emanating from him, they knew things were not good. While cursing the Yang Family for giving inaccurate information, Fan Huayue hurriedly explained.
"Brother Yang, calm down. Our Upper Splendor Sect has absolutely no ill intentions towards you. We can help you..."
"Help me? Sure, that's exactly what I need right now." Yang An chuckled, the image given by the Heavenly Secret Stone flashing through his mind. He had been slightly puzzled before, wondering who had destroyed the Upper Splendor Sect, which was not weak. Now he understood.
Yang An laughed loudly, pointing at the "ox" characters on the faces of the Life-and-Death Blade and the Heaven's Will Sword, and said, "If Niu Dingtian didn't kill you, then today I will take your lives!"
"And your Upper Splendor Sect as well." Yang An had no goodwill towards the Upper Splendor Sect in his previous life, and even more so in this one. He arrogantly declared, "Your Upper Splendor Sect was destined to face this calamity!"
