I Fabricated the Techniques, but My Disciple Really Mastered Them?

“You think you can escape?”

Xu Yan sneered coldly, took a step forward, and in an instant vanished from the spot. The next moment, a vast sword light descended like mountains and rivers, enveloping the assassin who was fleeing.

“Xu Yan!”

The assassin let out a low growl, his aura disappearing in a flash, his Divine Soul extinguished in that moment, vitality gone.

“Hmph!”

Xu Yan’s gaze was icy as he looked at the assassin from this mysterious force. Indeed, they were resolute. As soon as they found they couldn’t escape, they had no hesitation and immediately took their own lives!

Furthermore, they obviously practiced some sort of secret technique for self-destruction that allowed them to extinguish their Divine Soul in an instant, leaving not a single trace of consciousness, preventing any information from being extracted.

Boom!

The sword light struck down, turning the corpse to ash.

Two assassins had been dealt with already—one controlled and their objective thus achieved.

Xu Yan was increasingly grateful that he had chosen to practice the “Destiny of the Heavenly Intent” Divine Skill, a very wise decision indeed.

“Take off the mask.”

Xu Yan turned to the controlled assassin.

Despite being conscious, the man could not resist this will akin to heavenly intent.

“Yes!”

The man removed his mask.

A middle-aged face appeared, pale and devoid of any emotion, seemingly without a soul.

“Speak, who sent you to assassinate me, what force lurks behind you?”

Xu Yan began the interrogation.

The Wan Family as one of the top forces of the Nine Mountain Realm, ruling over the Dahai Mountain area, had been unable to find even a trace of this mysterious force, indicating its deep concealment. ℞ÂɴO͍βƐʂ

What exactly was such a well-hidden force plotting?

Were they enemies from beyond the heavens, or did they belong to the Divine Realm within?

Now, an answer was within grasp.

“It was Heavenly Slaughter who ordered us to assassinate you; we belong to the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow…”

Under Xu Yan’s interrogation, the True King Heavenly Venerable spilled everything he knew, without holding back anything.

“Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow?”

Xu Yan was inwardly shocked, having finally learned the name of this shadowy force.

“Why seek to provoke conflict between me and the Wan Family?”

Xu Yan continued to question.

“To create conflict between the Qinghua state and the Nine Mountain Realm, to fulfill the supreme mission of our Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, and also to restore the glory of the Domain…”

Towards the end, the True King Heavenly Venerable’s expression turned fervent.

Xu Yan was shaken. The purpose of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow was indeed to incite conflict between two realms; and this glory of the Domain seemed to be a kind of faith.

As for what restoring the Domain’s glory meant, the assassin couldn’t explain clearly. He only knew that the mission of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow was to make the Domain stronger and return it to its former glory.

In order to restore the Domain’s glory, it was necessary to break the status quo, causing great disturbances in the Divine Realm, leading to the majestic upheavals of the Domain. Only then might there be a chance to restore its former glory.

The existence of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow was for this mission.

As he delved deeper into his understanding, Xu Yan was stunned inwardly. It seemed most of the people in Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow were zealots.

For the so-called glory of the Domain, they would sacrifice everything!

They fearlessly embraced death!

To avoid leaking the secrets of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, they would kill themselves without a second thought!

Moreover, Xu Yan also found out that because of his previous actions, an Earth Shadow had sneakily assassinated the previous Heavenly Slaughter, leading to some internal turmoil within the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

Suspicion of a betrayer arose!

After all, how could an organization as fanatical as Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow willing to die for its mission have traitors?

Yet, the first traitor had emerged, making Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow more cautious when assigning missions.

“No wonder, they did not attack the Wan Family but instead killed Heavenly Slaughter.”

Xu Yan was flabbergasted.

Initially, he had ordered the assassination of the instigators, thinking it was the Wan Family’s doing, but it turned out that the targets were of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

“Earth Shadow, truly not simple. Probably more than one person has infiltrated the Wan Family.”

It was certain that members of the Earth Shadow Organization had infiltrated the great powers of the Nine Mountain Realm, but rooting them out was not going to be easy.

“Is your Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow pursuing Meng Chong?”

Xu Yan then asked,

“Yes, it’s said that Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter gave the order, killed Meng Chong, and created conflict and contradiction, sparing no effort to provoke a great war.”

Xu Yan’s gaze turned cold; Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter, according to the assailant’s claim, possessed the power of Immortal Heavenly Venerable!

However, being only Seven-leaf, his strength among the Immortal Heavenly Venerables could only be considered average.

“Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Nine Mountain Realm are all within the Nine Mountains. Could it be that aside from the Nine Mountains, a hidden Immortal Heavenly Venerable is lurking?”

Xu Yan’s heart congealed.

An Immortal Heavenly Venerable who could appear at any time was a massive threat to any power.

Moreover, the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow had tried to kill Meng Chong multiple times and failed each time. What if this Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter personally took action?

Although he had his master’s Jade Talisman, it would not put him in danger.

But a hidden Immortal Heavenly Venerable was undoubtedly a significant hidden danger.

“It would not be easy for an Immortal Heavenly Venerable to conceal themselves unless they practiced a secret technique like the Dust Technique to hide and reduce their presence.”

Xu Yan immediately dismissed the possibility that the other party possessed such an exquisite method for reducing presence and hiding.

Immortal Heavenly Venerables harmonized with the Domain; for this reason, it was impossible for one to deceive the others. Concealing themselves was almost impossible.

It was unlikely for there to be any hidden Immortal Heavenly Venerables in the Nine Mountain Realm; the only possibility was that one of them was the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter!

“Feng Yan comes from the Seven Segments Mountain, and the Seven Segments Mountain is different from the other eight mountains…”

Xu Yan thought of Feng Yan’s Seven Segments Mountain, where the power structure was not a Sect or a clan, but an alliance-like power known as the Seven Segments Mountain Alliance.

The Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Seven Segments Mountain each had their subordinates, yet they were united. If Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter were likely to appear anywhere, it would undoubtedly be in the Seven Segments Mountain.

“Feng Yan, although belonging to the Seven Segments Mountain and part of the Seven Segments Mountain Alliance, he is rather relaxed and has not formed his own subordinate power…”

Xu Yan pondered.

It was precisely because Feng Yan was slack, and the threat from the Seven Segments Mountain’s Heavenly Grotto was not significant, that he went to support Qinghua state and even decided to stay and not leave.

Xu Yan recalled the information Feng Yan had introduced about the Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Seven Segments Mountain. He did not find any of them particularly suspicious.

“It might not necessarily be the Seven Segments Mountain.”

Xu Yan’s brow furrowed slightly, the identity of this Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter was profoundly hidden. Within the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow organization, hardly a few knew his identity in the Nine Mountain Realm.

“This is a hidden danger in the Nine Mountain Realm; the Wan Family will be anxious as well. They will take this matter to heart and investigate.”

The Wan Family, being a clan and targeted by the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, their Immortal Heavenly Venerable would definitely not be Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter. Instead, because they were targeted, they were even more concerned about this matter.

Xu Yan continued to inquire about information regarding Meng Chong.

“All I know is that Meng Chong arrived in the Dahai Mountain territory and then his whereabouts were lost, and it is under investigation…”

Meng Chong had come to the Dahai Mountain, and also to find him, the Wan Family, being the ruling clan of the Dahai Mountain, should also meet Wan Tianlin.

Information from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow should be shared with Wan Tianlin, mobilizing the power of the Wan Family to search.

Especially for Earth Shadow Members infiltrated in major powers.

With this thought, Xu Yan, taking this Earth Shadow member, went towards Shi Feng of Dahai Mountain and used a Communication Talisman to summon Wan Tianlin to meet.

Destiny of the Heavenly Intent control over the Divine Skills, Xu Yan wouldn’t reveal, and the one controlled wouldn’t show any signs of being detected.

This person would be of great use!

Continue acting as a member of Earth Shadow, becoming a true traitor to Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

To order a retaliation would be too valueless. Since Xu Yan was aware of the existence of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, he naturally wouldn’t engage in such a low-efficiency form of revenge.

He intended to take down Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow entirely.

Even if he couldn’t completely eliminate them in one go, he could take down each of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow’s strongholds one by one. Xu Yan intended to utilize the value of this Earth Shadow member to its fullest.

“You know the strongholds of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, tell me their locations.”

“I don’t know many strongholds, other than the one I’m part of, I only know three other contact strongholds…”

After obtaining the locations of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow strongholds, Xu Yan calculated how to act. Alone, he couldn’t silently take down a stronghold.

So, he still needed to cooperate with Wan Tianlin.

“Go back and say you encountered support from the Wan Family and used a secret technique to escape…”

Xu Yan instructed.

“Yes!”

“From today on, your identity is Yin Yi, infiltrating Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, understand?”

“Yin Yi understands!”

As Xu Yan watched Yin Yi leave, his face beamed with a brilliant smile. Earth Shadow excels at infiltration, right?

But have they ever considered being infiltrated in return?
