Heavenly Opposers-Chapter 274 - 273-Effects.

"The Flowing Silk Trading Company is in complete chaos," Lan spoke, to which Azrail nodded his head in agreement. Yan Xiang was the merchant lord controlling the Flowing Silk Trading Company, a powerful cultivator and an even more powerful merchant with extensive control spread across the entire Empire, making them one of the giants that can’t be messed with.

They also have almost the highest peak of money, power, and backing. And right now, their most protected head, a powerful cultivator himself—one that was protected by a whole lot of people and treasure—had ended up dead, that too without a single noise. The person had just ended up dying, leaving behind a single symbol made of blood: ’Ω’.

The single symbol was engraved on Yan Xiang’s head and left on the wall where his lifeless body lay. This symbol ’Ω’, representing the value of Omega, is something none could grasp, now having created one of the biggest waves in the empire in years. Everyone is scrambling to understand who had their hands in this.

Even the powerful assassination organisations in the world—ones of great power and prestige—are shaken. The level of assassination done points toward a new assassin organisation rising in this world, and its skills are not to be underestimated, which means a new war for the underworld might take place.

Several powerful assassin organisations are using everything in their arsenal to get a lead into this. The first assassination was a display of the power and ideology of this organisation, whose name remains hidden. The only clue is the single symbol ’Ω’. Though while the outside burned, it wasn’t all that good for the inside of the Flower Silk Trading Company.

Their main expertise lies in the sale of rare elixirs and powerful rare silk used to make combat dresses, create, and be used for several powerful techniques and weapons, too. It’s one whole trading company that no one can mess with. A trading company is a stretch of a word because it’s more of a powerful family controlling all of it.

The main base of this family is present within a powerful territory that controls and produces this silk, making it a very, very rich place. And in this case, the money they have earned has brought them extensive connections and power they can use.

"It doesn’t matter much, does it? After all, Yan Xiang was just a figurehead," Azrail spoke, to which his mother replied with a smile.

"Of course. Though the real issue arises when their most inner head powerful elders are assassinated along with some key powerful figures."

"Which they won’t be able to keep hidden for long," Azrail completed his mother’s words, who nodded at him and continued.

"Power and friendship here can only last if you have the same level of standing and power. If not, the more powerful side would just swallow you up, leaving nothing behind."

Now, it was Azrail’s turn to smile at his mother’s words as he leaned comfortably into the sofa and spoke.

"Have you contacted them yet?"

To which his mother shook her head and replied.

"Not yet. Let them stew some more. We will act when it has reached the tip of its boiling point."

To these words, with a chuckle, Azrail replied.

"Send Yunbai to the most dangerous situations; it would only make him stronger."

Azrail’s mother nodded her head at those words as she suddenly asked.

"How is it going with Kia?"

Her words had an added edge to them, to which Azrail calmly replied.

"It’s going well for now. I’m sure that the entity behind her would already be getting anxious. Its path is set to get more tricky."

Lan chuckled at those words as she focused on her work. In the past timeline, Anya had only taken action far into the future. She had taken all her sweet, sweet time to bring Kia to her despair, after which Anya took action. But that won’t cut it for Azrail now. According to the flow of fate that Adria is seeing, it would seem that Anya would take action far sooner than before.

’Which makes the time I need to act on less.’

Anya has seen everything that Azrail wanted her to see, which means she would soon begin her actions. There’s more to the reason for the promise that Azrail gave for increasing the talent and powers of his family. Anya would take it as the perfect opportunity to bring Kia to maximum despair.

What better way to bring everything down than making Kia see everything around her improve with great strides while she stays the same? It will crush Kia to the extreme when it starts to happen. However, there are bigger issues to deal with right now, the main one being all the assassination attempts that have been made until now.

"This makes it the 65th attempt, right?"

Azrail asked, to which his mother nodded her head, her expression turning serious as she finally looked at Azrail and spoke.

"This is getting annoying. Thanks to all the protection we have, it’s no issue, but their attempts are getting more and more annoying."

Azrail could only agree with those words. For now, several assassins from organisations across the Empire have tried their luck, and Azrail is sure that the more powerful organisations spread across the realm will soon start their plans once things are set into motion. However, even the current ones are annoying.

"Just a week ago, someone tried to create a humongous beast tide to crush the city, while just at another moment, another group tried to disrupt our entire business using their dirty tricks."

"But it didn’t work, right?"

Azrail added with a smirk, his eyes blazing as he responded. Thanks to the tech from Nayan, the whole city and beyond it is in the gaze of Azrail and his family. No matter what they may try to use in this lower realm, everything is under the eyes of this family, making it such that no harm can be done in any way.

An already programmed AI is up and running, always scouting any dangers to this place. And soon, once everything is set, Azrail and his family will have full coverage over the entire continent. Nothing will be able to escape the eyes of this family. The prospects of getting coverage of the entire realm will take some more time, but it will definitely be done.

"Patience, mother. For now, we will let them take the lead. But once our base is strong, we will begin our counterattack."

Lan nodded her head at that, the two of them well aware of what must be done and what shouldn’t. With Raven paving the way, within a year or more, Lan will gain major control and power over the empire, which she will soon be able to spread across the entire continent. Once the base as the greatest business might is set, then more open actions can be taken.
