Tang Yu unlocked the blockade of the "Heaven and Earth Lock".
Inside the room, everything remained the sa.
There were no traces of destruction, except for the absence of the two Unity Realm figures and "Ku", one of the Twelve Elders.
"Too clean, doesn’t seem like an assassination."
To prevent others from associating it with the "Heaven and Earth Lock", Tang Yu swept up a gust of wind to scatter the spacious room, creating a ss. After "Ku" was slain by Nancy, his origin vanished, and his broken corpse was left there.
After thinking for a mont, Tang Yu used the ti powers he had barely mastered to erase the surrounding traces.
He crafted a scene of a vendetta.
Hmm, after all, hiring assassins to eliminate high-ranking officials is a common occurrence.
Whether it succeeds is another question.
"It seems like sothing is still missing?"
Noises and shouting had already started outside, with several strong presences approaching rapidly.
Tang Yu still felt he had forgotten sothing important.
"It’s the mark!"
"An assassin without a mark is not pure!"
He rummaged around, seemingly without any special items, when suddenly a limited edition collectible deck of playing cards was found in a corner of his space ring.
Since the opening of "Treasure Pavilion" years ago, playing cards as entertainnt products had sold remarkably well in the entertainnt-industry-backward Mountain and Sea Realm.
They were sold in many neutral cities like White City.
More often than not, there were imitators and pirated products. Playing cards were nothing rare whether on the continent or in the Endless Sea.
Tang Yu drew a Black Spade K painted with a king’s figure, flicking it out.
The card made of hard runes embedded itself into the wall. On the card face, a crowned figure’s ghostly image erged.
The next mont,
Tang Yu stepped out, crossing the boundary of the isolated space, and his figure disappeared.
Seconds later, a group of guards rushed into the hall, with several startled Divine Domain strongn arriving right after.
What they saw was an empty front hall and a chaotic room at the back.
The dispersing aura still left a few remnants.
Several Divine Domain leaders’ faces changed, and they rushed into the room, seeing only fragnted remains from which one could not discern the appearance.
But at a glance, they recognized.
"Elder ’Ku’, how is it possible!"
Even the high-ranking Divine Domain powerhouses could not hide their shock upon witnessing this scene.
For an elder-level presence in the Heavenly Alliance Comrce, it was being among the highest ranks.
Even if Elder "Ku" was among the weaker of the Twelve Elders, he was still an elder, stronger than the present Divine Domain figures!
First, the "Myriad Treasure Mage" was captured, then Elder "Ku" was assassinated in his lair...
"The Heavenly Alliance Comrce is going to be turbulent."
The implications were significant, and several Divine Domain individuals ordered the initiation of arrays to seal off Heavenly Alliance City.
But they were also well aware that if the assassin could kill Elder "Ku" unnoticed in such a short ti, sealing the city would likely be in vain.
Yet procedures still needed to be followed.
No Divine Domain dared disrupt the scene, fearing the bla would fall upon themselves.
Soon after,
The other three elders stationed in Heavenly Alliance City arrived together.
"’Ku’ is indeed dead, and among the other Unity Realm figures in the alliance, not a trace remains. The assassin’s power is imnse, likely allowing no room for ’Ku’ to resist."
"Instantly killing ’Ku’? Even an invincible strongman couldn’t achieve that. Could it be a Saint’s doing? Whom did ’Ku’ offend among the saint-tier existence?"
"Or perhaps the assassin carried so special treasure capable of sealing the repercussions of the battle."
The three elders analyzed.
If it was rely "Ku" acting independently, simply offending a saint-tier existence and being killed, the elders were not too worried.
Their concern was that the enemies of the Heavenly Alliance Comrce had hired an assassin.
If an assassin could silently kill Elder "Ku", they too were in equal danger.
"Check if we can divine any information on the assassin!"
A Divine Domain figure slightly versed in divination, along with several proficient in divination and retrospection at Unity Realm, gathered at the scene.
They cast their spells together.
An invisible energy enveloped the entire room and the hall outside.
A mont later,
The scene inside the room changed, rewinding to before the incident happened.
The silhouette of Elder "Ku" sat in the main seat, with two Unity Realm Peak figures on either side.
At this point,
A figure wrapped fully in a black robe appeared outside the hall.
In an instant, the retrospective scene twisted, and the two Unity Realm figures casting the spell spat blood suddenly.
They struggled to maintain it but couldn’t make the scene clearer.
After about ten seconds,
The image finally cleared. The black-robed figure turned around, his gaze seemingly penetrated through ti and space, eting the eyes of the Heavenly Alliance Comrce executives present.
His figure then vanished.
Buzz—
The retrospective scene cald down.
The three elders were clearly dissatisfied, "I want to see clearly what happened after the black-robed figure entered the room!"
Thus, the Unity Realm adept in retrospection prepared more materials, working continuously for several days, finally making the scene no longer distorted, presenting a heavily pixelated view to the top of the Heavenly Alliance Comrce.
The three elders: "..."
What good are you!
"Elders, although the retrospective image isn’t clear, it precisely proves one thing." The Unity Realm in charge of retrospection hurriedly said, "That black-robed figure is very likely a saint-tier existence.
Saint-tier existences are shrouded in laws, harmonizing with the world in every move. With our abilities, we simply cannot see the figure clearly, especially as that strongman is cloaked in a full-cover black robe."
