I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

"Where did Xu Yan go? Why can't a single trace be found? Could he have simply vanished into thin air?"

The man in the Ferocious Mask spoke in a deep voice.

"Search, continue the search for me, we must find him!"

The man in the Ferocious Mask said through gritted teeth, "I refuse to believe that with the Earth Shadow's network, we still can't find him!"

As the plan progressed to the most critical juncture, just one more successful step, and the entire plan would be largely complete.

Yet now, Xu Yan, the piece in this game, was gone!

How could this be tolerated?

"Which power is covering up Xu Yan's tracks?"

Wan Tianlin asked with a cold gaze.

"I don't know!"

"Mobilize all the forces we can, we must find him, otherwise how shall the Wan Family save face?"

Wan Tianlin, with a murderous intent, then said, "Check out all those rumors, find out where they started from, maybe we can find a clue!"

"Yes, Young Master!"

The Wan Family was also taking action, mobilizing more forces just to find Xu Yan.

Besides Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow and the Wan Family, the several True King Heavenly Venerables from another party were also frowning in distress: where on earth had Xu Yan gone to?

Having almost turned over Dahai Mountain, they still couldn't find him. How could they lure him into the witch's Heavenly Grotto within Thousand Layered Mountain without finding him?

What made them even more uncomfortable was that while they hadn't found Xu Yan, the Wan Family mistakenly thought they were the power behind Xu Yan, and some conflicts had arisen as a result.

Engaging in conflict with the Wan Family, on Wan Family's turf, was an extremely unwise move. Therefore, they quickly conceded and made it clear that they too were there to search for Xu Yan's whereabouts.

The two parties even exchanged information, agreeing to notify each other if they found any trace of Xu Yan.

Xu Yan, oblivious to the outside world, focused all his attention on cultivating the Divine Skill, Destiny of the Heavenly Intent.

"I've finally succeeded in cultivating it!"

Xu Yan revealed a smile, a glimmer of light appearing between his eyebrows, resembling an eye, and atop this eye, a force seemed to linger, akin to the will of the heavens.

"The Eye of the Minor Heavenly Path, combined with the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent for casting, gives a higher success rate and makes it easier to immobilize the enemy's spirit."

Xu Yan thought excitedly to himself.

"With this Divine Skill, I can do a lot."

The light between his eyebrows disappeared, Xu Yan raised his palm, and it seemed as though a mighty heavenly will swirled within his hand.

It gave off a sense of vastness and undeniable power.

"It's time to leave seclusion."

Now that his Divine Skill was completely cultivated, it was time to continue gathering the necessary treasures, building up his foundation, and preparing for the breakthrough.

"Wan Tianlin, are you ready? I'm about to give you a little shock."

Xu Yan wore a smile on his face.

Even if Wan Tianlin had conceded, Xu Yan would not easily forgive. Daring to send someone to assassinate him meant being prepared to face the consequences.

With just a thought, landscapes vanished, formations retracted.

With a wave of his hand, Xu Yan erased all traces and aura, and in a single step, disappeared from the spot.

"Dahai Mountain is Wan Family's territory. Let's find a big city of the Wan Family, get to know more about the Wan Family, get to know how Wan Tianlin is doing.

"If he is in seclusion, comprehending cultivation techniques, then planning against him will have to wait."

Wan Tianlin, as the pride of the Wan Family, would be in a place with strict defenses, where ordinary Wan Family members could not get close.

"Choose a target and test out the Destiny of the Heavenly Intent."

Xu Yan decided to go to one of the big cities of the Wan Family to select a suitable target and control them to shock Wan Tianlin.

Walking on Dahai Mountain, Xu Yan followed a direction and headed for one of the big cities of the Wan Family.

Shen Kui was a member of the Earth Shadow in Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, lurking within the Wan Family, belonging to the martial artists close to the Core Guard.

This time, he received an order from Earth Shadow to find Xu Yan, assassinate Xu Yan, and conclusively pin the assassination on the Wan Family.

Although assassinating Xu Yan was a very dangerous task, as he was only at the early stage of the Truth Refinement Realm, a novice among True King Heavenly Venerables.

But as an Earth Shadow Member, dedicating everything to Earth Shadow was an honor.

Shen Kui was excited for the opportunity to serve Earth Shadow. If he survived by chance, his status within Earth Shadow would be elevated.

In the Wan Family, he would also have a chance to join the ranks of the Core Guard.

Even more, he might be granted the Wan surname, truly becoming a confidant of the Wan Family, or even a devoted retainer.

So, Shen Kui was very zealous in searching for Xu Yan, both for the glory of Earth Shadow and to show his dedication to the Wan Family.

Even if he failed to find Xu Yan, perhaps this performance would earn him a place in the Core Guard.

Shen Kui didn't know whether there were other Earth Shadow Members within the Wan Family besides himself; each member could not know the true identities of the others.

They couldn't even know each other's appearances.

Earth Shadow was responsible for lurking, waiting for opportunities, instigating conflicts, and so on, while Heavenly Slaughter led all this and was also the strongest fighting force.

As for how many Heavenly Slaughters and how many Earth Shadow Members there were in the Earth Shadow Organization, Shen Kui didn't know, as he was not the lowest, but also not high-level within Earth Shadow.

"Is that... Xu Yan?"

Suddenly, Shen Kui spotted a young man ahead – wasn't this Xu Yan, whom they were so desperately searching for?

Immediately, he was elated.

"My opportunity has come!"

Shen Kui moved swiftly, his aura fading slightly, and his figure seemed to be cloaked in a shadow, hiding him within nearby shadows to conceal himself.

This was an Earth Shadow technique, to conceal and ambush.

Xu Yan was very strong; the last people who attempted to assassinate Xu Yan did not return.
