I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?-Chapter 763 - 401 Control and Counter-Subversion_2

"Can you escape?"

Xu Yan sneered coldly, took a step forward, and in an instant, he disappeared from his original spot. The next moment, his sword radiance swept across like vast mountains and rivers, shrouding the assassin who was in the midst of fleeing.

"Xu Yan!"

The assassin let out a low roar, the aura on his body vanished in an instant, his Divine Soul extinguished at that moment, devoid of all life.

"Hmph!"

Xu Yan's gaze was icy cold. This assassin from the mysterious force was indeed resolute. Once he found escape impossible, he did not hesitate in the slightest and chose to die by his own hand!

Moreover, he clearly cultivated some kind of secret technique that allowed for self-destruction, which could eliminate his Divine Soul in a blink, leaving not a trace of residual consciousness, to avoid any information being extracted from him.

Boom!

The sword light fell, and the corpse dissipated into ash.

Two assassins, one was now under control, and the goal was also achieved.

Xu Yan was increasingly thankful that his decision to cultivate the "Destiny of the Heavenly Intent" Divine Skills was a very wise move.

"Take off your mask."

Xu Yan turned to the controlled assassin.

Even with a clear mind, the other party couldn't resist the will that was like the destiny of the heavens.

"Yes!"

The individual removed the mask.

What was revealed was a middle-aged face with a pallid complexion and a look devoid of any emotion, as if devoid of all feeling.

"Speak, who sent you to assassinate me, and what force is behind you?"

Xu Yan started the interrogation.

The Wan Family, as one of the top forces of the Nine Mountain Realm and the ruler over Dahai Mountain territory, couldn't even find a trace of this mysterious force, indicating how deeply it was hidden.

What exactly was this deeply-concealed force plotting?

Was it an enemy from beyond the heavens lying in wait, or a power within the Divine Realm itself?

Now, there would be an answer.

"It was Heavenly Slaughter who ordered us to assassinate you. We belong to the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow..."

This True King Heavenly Venerable spilled everything under Xu Yan's interrogation without hiding a thing.

"Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow?"

Xu Yan was inwardly shocked, finally learning the name of this behind-the-scenes force.

"Why do you want to instigate conflict between me and the Wan Family?"

Xu Yan continued his questioning.

"To create conflict between the Qinghua state and the Nine Mountain Realm, to fulfill the supreme mission of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, and to restore the glory of the Domain..."

At the end, the True King Heavenly Venerable showed a fanatic gleam.

Xu Yan was stunned. The goal of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow was to instigate conflict between the two realms, and this "glory of the Domain" appeared to be a kind of belief.

As to what exactly "restoring the glory of the Domain" meant, the assassin couldn't explain clearly. He only knew that the task of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow was to make the Domain stronger, to restore its former glory.

To restore this glory, it was necessary to break the status quo, instigate great turmoil within the Divine Realm, and cause a vast upheaval of the Domain. Only then would there be a chance to restore its former glory.

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

As Xu Yan delved deeper into his understanding, he was secretly astonished. Most of the people in Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow were madmen.

All for the supposed glory of the Domain, they would sacrifice everything!

Fearless in the face of death!

To avoid leaking the secrets of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, they would enact self-annihilation without any hesitation!

Moreover, Xu Yan also learned that due to his own actions in the past, a member of Earth Shadow had assassinated the former Heavenly Slaughter, causing some unrest within the organization.

Suspicions arose. Was there a traitor?

After all, in the fanatical organization of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, which carried out its mission with no hesitation even in the face of death, how could there be a traitor?

As a result, the first traitor emerged, leading to Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow being more cautious when assigning tasks.

"No wonder there was no assassination of the Wan Family. It turns out that it was Heavenly Slaughter that had been targeted."

Xu Yan was dumbfounded.

He had originally instructed the assassination of the order giver, thinking it was someone from the Wan Family. He never imagined that the order giver was Heavenly Slaughter, and that the person was from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

"Earth Shadow is quite impressive. It's feared that not just one person has infiltrated the Wan Family."

Members of Earth Shadow must certainly be infiltrating all these major powers in the Nine Mountain Realm, but rooting them out is not so easily done.

"Are you from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow pursuing Meng Chong?"

Xu Yan then asked.

"Yes, it is rumored that the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter ordered Meng Chong's assassination, creating conflict and division, sparing no effort to provoke a great war."

Xu Yan's gaze turned icy. Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter, according to this assassin's words, possessed the strength of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable Realm!

However, mere Seven-leaf strength could only be considered average amongst Immortal Heavenly Venerables.

"Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Nine Mountain Realm all reside within the Nine Mountains. Could it be that besides the Nine Mountains, an Immortal Heavenly Venerable lies in ambush?"

Xu Yan's heart tensed.

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

Furthermore, Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow had failed several times in their attempts to assassinate Meng Chong. What if the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter personally took action?

Even though, with his master's Jade Talisman, there wouldn't be any danger.

But an Immortal Heavenly Venerable lurking in the shadows was undoubtedly a great hidden threat.

"An Immortal Heavenly Venerable would not find it easy to conceal themselves, unless they have cultivated a secret technique as incredible as the Dust Technique to hide their presence."

Xu Yan immediately dismissed the possibility that the other party possessed such an incredible technique to hide their presence.

Immortal Heavenly Venerables merge with the Domain, and for this reason, it is impossible for Immortal Heavenly Venerables to deceive each other. The prospect of hiding is nearly impossible.

It's not likely that an Undetected Immortal Heavenly Venerable exists within the Nine Mountain Realm. The only possibility is that one of these Immortal Heavenly Venerables is the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter!

"Feng Yan comes from the Seven Segments Mountain, and the Seven Segments Mountain is unlike the rest of the Eight Mountains..."

Xu Yan thought of the Seven Segments Mountain where Feng Yan belonged. This mountain's forces were not a sect or a noble family, but an alliance-like force known as the Seven Segments Mountain Alliance.

The Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Seven Segments Mountain each have their own subordinates, yet they form an alliance. If one were to speculate where the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter might be, it would undoubtedly be the Seven Segments Mountain.

"This guy Feng Yan, although he's from the Seven Segments Mountain and belongs to the Seven Segments Mountain Alliance, he's rather loose and hasn't formed his own subordinate forces..."

Xu Yan pondered.

It was precisely because Feng Yan was loose that the threat from the Heavenly Grottos of the Seven Segments Mountain wasn't significant, which is why he went to support the Qinghua state and ended up staying and not leaving.

Xu Yan recalled the introductions of the Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Seven Segments Mountain provided by Feng Yan; he didn't find any of them particularly suspicious.

"It may not necessarily be the Seven Segments Mountain."

Xu Yan's brows furrowed slightly. This Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter's identity was deeply concealed. Within the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow organization, hardly anyone knew their identity in the Nine Mountain Realm.

"This is a hidden threat to the Nine Mountain Realm. The Wan Family will be anxious too. They will take this matter seriously and investigate."

The Wan Family is a noble family and is being targeted by Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, so the Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Wan Family could not possibly be the Seven-leaf Heavenly Slaughter. On the contrary, because they are being targeted, they are even more attentive to this matter.

Xu Yan continued to inquire, focusing on information regarding Meng Chong.

"All I know is that Meng Chong arrived in the Dahai Mountain region and then vanished without a trace. The search is ongoing..."

Meng Chong came to Dahai Mountain, and he too came searching for him. The Wan Family is the ruling noble family of Dahai Mountain. It was time to meet Wan Tianlin.

The intelligence from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow should also be shared with Wan Tianlin, utilizing the Wan Family's resources to conduct the search.

Especially for the Earth Shadow Members infiltrating various powers.

Thinking this, Xu Yan took the Earth Shadow member with him to the Dahai Mountain's Shi Feng and used a Communication Talisman to summon Wan Tianlin for a meeting.

Destiny of the Heavenly Intent Control is a Divine Skill that Xu Yan wouldn't disclose, and the controlled individual would not be detected for any signs of manipulation.

This person, he still had great use for! Discover exclusive content at novelbuddy

Continue to act as an Earth Shadow member, becoming a true traitor within Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

Giving a direct order for a counter-assassination would be too low-value. Now that Xu Yan was aware of the existence of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, he naturally would not engage in such low-efficiency retaliation.

He planned to eradicate Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow entirely.

Even if he couldn't finish them off at once, he could destroy their various strongholds one by one. Xu Yan intended to exploit the value of this Earth Shadow member to the fullest.

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

"I don't know many strongholds. Aside from the one I belong to, I only know three other contact points..."

Having received the locations of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow's strongholds, Xu Yan considered how to proceed. Alone, he couldn't silently take down a stronghold.

Therefore, cooperation with Wan Tianlin was still necessary.

"You can go back. Just say that you encountered Wan Family reinforcements and only escaped by using a secret technique..."

Xu Yan instructed.

"Yes!"

"From today onwards, you are known as Yin Yi. Infiltrate Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, understand?"

"Yin Yi understands!"

Xu Yan watched as Yin Yi left, his face beaming with a bright smile. Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow excels at infiltration, don't they?

Have they ever considered being counter-infiltrated?
