Xu Shan didn't follow Yunxi deeper into the clan. He let her go ahead. However, he did keep his eyes on her using his Divine Consciousness. His Divine Consciousness shrouded the entire Clan Premises. He was able to see everything, from the hidden rooms where people were getting intimate while getting worried about getting caught to the places where shady deals were taking place by corrupt elders. He had more or less understood the entire structure of this clan. The clan was quite poor. Even…

Xu Shan was quite surprised to hear that the Divine Queen was Yunxi's sister. However, he didn't even have the time to ask anything when she told him her request to kill the Divine Queen. This thing became more complicated for him. He knew that her identity wasn't simple, especially when the guards behaved at the entrance of the City. However, he never expected her identity to be so unique, which raised even more questions. If this girl was the sister of the Queen, who ruled over most of the…

"Do you know where the other half of the blade would be?" Xu Shan asked the Shopkeeper. The Shopkeeper shook his head. He didn't even know who put this sword here, let alone where the other half of the sword was. However, what he was certain was that he couldn't afford to offend the man, thanks to who he was accompanied by. "I only have that half. As for the other half, I doubt it can ever be discovered, except by great luck," he explained. "The Sword appears to be broken in a battle, a long…

While Xu Shan was looking at the broken sword, the Shopkeeper kept his eyes on him. In fact, the shopkeeper himself was slightly surprised. This was his shop, but it was his first time seeing that old rusted sword. He was convinced that the broken sword was never there the last time he saw it. He scratched the back of his head, wondering if he was getting old and forgetful. There was no way something like that would appear out of nowhere. "Must be some worker who placed it there," he thought,…

Along the way, Xu Shan came to know a lot of things about this world, thanks to the maid and the little girl. He didn't know how much of their words he could trust, but most of what they said appeared feasible. According to them, their destination was one of the main cities in the southern end of the Unified Kingdom. It was known as Yanxia City. The city was considered to be the five most important cities in the Kingdom. Branches of all main central organizations could be found in…

The door of the carriage opened, and a person stepped out. "I can help you with that..." A voice fell in Xu Shan's ears, making him divert his attention towards the carriage. There, he saw the person who was so vehemently being protected by the guards. Surprisingly, it was a little girl, who appeared to be eleven or twelve years old. Behind the girl was a woman, who appeared to be her maid. However, the maid was even stronger than the Leader of the Guards. It was as if she was the last layer…

After a long time, the Leader of the Guards was finally able to see Xu Shan, who appeared back at his original spot. However, at the same time, all the other assassins dropped to the ground, bleeding. There was not a speck of blood on his clothes, which appeared to be spotless. Xu Shan glanced at the Leader of the Assassins who gulped down. However, for some reason, he felt his body getting weaker. He wanted to run, but he knew that he couldn't escape with the kind of speed that Xu Shan had…

"I-i will help you! I will take you anywhere you want to go!" The Captain of the Guards spoke unconditionally, starting with trying to apologize for previously trying to drag him in this mess. However, he didn't stop there. "But if we don't kill them, it won't be good for anyone! The Assassins are from the Shadow Temple! Now that you've seen one of their faces, they won't let you live! No one who comes across them is allowed to live! This is their rule!" "They might pretend to work with you and…

The wound on his face further infuriated the Leader of the Assassins. "You said I need to walk over your dead body?! That won't be needed! There won't even be a dead body for me to walk over! I'll destroy you!" He roared. Far away from the battle, Xu Shan simply watched everything like a spectator. He just waited for the victor, to ask for directions. This battle had nothing to do with them. It was a cruel world. He had no reason to involve himself in other people's problems. Unfortunately,…

"Down on your knees!" The guards became extremely alert, getting down from their horses while pointing their swords at Xu Shan. "How did you find our travel route? Who sent you here?" The Leader of the Guards coldly asked. He didn't believe that there happened to be a man who was lost in a place like that. If anything, it appeared to be a trick by him to get close to them. They had intentionally taken such a barren and roundabout way to get to their destination, just for the safety of the…
