"Yes!" A guard waiting nearby immediately stepped out.
The man with the demonic mark furrowed his brows, his scarlet pupils brimming with pure evil, if he caught Adam, he would definitely tear him into ten thousand pieces.
Silver Willow Dynasty, in front of Roan’s house, whether it was the royal family, the major aristocratic families, or the experts from the Nova and Ash Clans of the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm, every single person was kneeling on the ground, standing before them was an extremely young boy dressed in white, exuding peerless elegance.
"Roan is dead?" The white-robed youth spoke indifferently, his voice carried not a trace of emotion, and his eyes were like ancient, unrippling wells as he looked at the man kneeling at the very front.
Carrol trembled violently, burying his head against the ground, not daring to steal a glance at the white-robed youth.
"Dao Child, it is absolutely true."
"By the time we discovered it, it was already too late!" When Roan escaped, Carrol had fabricated the scene to look like accidental manslaughter by the guards, submitting that exact report to the Nova Clan, he knew they would send someone quickly, but never expected them to send the Dao Child directly.
The white-robed youth maintained a breezy, calm expression, quietly looking down at Carrol.
"Guard Captain Carrol, you have served my Nova Clan for nearly a hundred years now, haven’t you?" He walked right up to Carrol, asking from a commanding height.
Seeing the exquisite white boots with cloud patterns approach his face, Carrol shivered and buried his head even lower.
"Yes, Dao Child, fully counted, I have served in the guard for 101 years, I have dedicated myself entirely and am ready to die for the cause!"
The white-robed youth slowly raised his palm, looked at the back of Carrol’s head, and asked indifferently, "Then why did you lie to me?"
Carrol’s entire body went rigid. After a momentary pause, he spoke in a terrified voice, "Dao Child, I don’t understand, every word I spoke is the truth, I wouldn’t dare harbor any deception."
"If there is any deceit, I, Carrol, deserve death..."
"We made a Soul Lamp for Roan!"
Carrol’s voice had been sincere and emotionally charged, but in the very next second his words came to a screeching halt, bead-sized drops of sweat began rolling down his forehead.
"Carrol, I will give you one more chance to report Roan’s situation properly!" An extremely terrifying Dao rhythm surfaced on the white-robed youth’s palm, rendering his coldness utterly horrifying.
Kneeling on the ground, Carrol’s heart pounded wildly, feeling as if it would explode the next second.
That guy Roan actually had a Soul Lamp?! How is that possible? The clan valued him that much?!
It shouldn’t be, crafting a Soul Lamp consumed massive resources, even he didn’t have one, so how could they make one for an outsider? Could the Dao Child be bluffing? Highly likely, Carrol forcefully stabilized his emotions and opened his mouth. "Dao... Dao Child, every word I said is..."
Boom! A blossom of blood exploded right in front of everyone, warm blood splattered onto the bodies of the kneeling crowd.
Only the white-robed youth didn’t have a single speck on him, the man who had just been kneeling before him slowly slumped over, minus his head.
The white-robed youth stepped over the headless corpse and walked toward another violently trembling guard, his gaze still terrifyingly indifferent. "You. Speak!"
That guard didn’t dare look up, keeping his head bowed as he shivered uncontrollably. "Dao... Dao... Dao Child, I..."
His head instantly exploded as well, he collapsed before he could even die with remaining grievances.
The white-robed youth lowered his hand and walked to yet another guard. "You speak. If you stutter, you die too!"
That guard, whose body had been trembling uncontrollably, suddenly found courage from some unknown source and spoke with perfect fluency.
"Reporting to Dao Child, the sequence of events was..." He recounted the true, unvarnished story of what had actually happened.
After listening, the white-robed youth frowned slightly, then looked toward Roan’s house and slowly spat out a single name, Adam.
To possess such high-level formation mastery, it could only be Adam.
At this moment, a man in a long robe walked out of Roan’s room, he held a formation disc in his hand, long hair cascading freely down his back, his face carrying a hint of helplessness.
"Dao Child, the opponent’s formation skills are exceedingly high, I might not be able to track him down anytime soon!"
"How long do you need?" the white-robed youth asked.
"At least a month, although he left in a hurry, and there should be traces left despite the formation disc self-destructing, the formation traces were tampered with by these idiots, making it significantly harder!" The robed man shrugged, as if saying, look at the fine mess your subordinates made.
The white-robed youth said nothing, merely casting an indifferent glance at the robed man. "As soon as possible!"
Then he turned and left.
Behind him, the heads of every Nova and Ash Clan guard present simultaneously exploded, their bodies collapsed to the ground, fresh blood completely drenched the earth.
The Silver Willow Emperor, Oswin, kneeling behind them, saw his imperial yellow robes turn entirely crimson, his face completely painted in blood.
Yet he didn’t dare utter a single word, only cursing relentlessly in his heart.
Why is it that even as an Emperor, I have to suffer such stifling grievances?! This damn chaotic world!
On the ferry heading to the Central Continent.
Adam and Cecilia were cultivating in their cabin.
The Azure Cloud Hunt, just as its name implied, was a hunt, and the location was called the Azure Cloud Field.
What made it different was that this hunting ground wasn’t artificially designated, it was naturally formed, automatically opening every time the Heaven and Earth Upheaval arrived.
It was considered a special secret realm because there were no fortuitous encounters or hidden treasures inside.
There were only endless hordes of ferocious demonic beasts, demons, ghosts, and phantoms... Aside from humans, one could probably witness the greatest variety of monsters, demons, and evil spirits in history there!
