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

"Xu Yan is not one of the three major powers of Qinghua state; can he really provoke a conflict between the two sides?"

Someone doubted.

"The name of Sword God Xu Yan is renowned throughout Qinghua state, and he is the object of reverence for all sword cultivators there; his identity is not simple. Had I not gone to Qinghua state myself, I would probably be unable to confirm his significance.

"Now that Xu Yan has come to the Nine Mountain Realm and intends to transact Blood Heart Fruit with Wan Tianlin, it is an opportunity bestowed by heaven, not to be missed,"

said the person in the Ferocious Mask, full of confidence.

"What should we do next?"

Another masked person asked.

"Wan Tianlin currently urgently needs the Blood Heart Fruit, and as Xu Yan possesses it, he will inevitably engage in a transaction with Xu Yan. Our next move is much simpler—further intensify the conflict…"

The person in the Ferocious Mask said, laying out their following actions with chilling intent.

...

When the time arranged to meet with Wan Tianlin arrived, Xu Yan was surprised to find that the person who came was one of Wan Tianlin\'s guards from before.

Moreover, they indeed came to transact the Blood Heart Fruit.

"This is the treasure you require; check it,"

the guard said, getting straight to the point with a cold demeanor, as if both sides understood something had been done without saying it out loud.

Xu Yan nodded, not bothering with pleasantries, and began to check the items. After verifying there were no mistakes, he went ahead and traded away a Blood Heart Fruit.

Since the other party was so straightforward, Xu Yan considered himself someone who honors promises, and the transaction had to be conducted as agreed. As for the matter of killing Wan Tianlin, it could be dealt with after the transaction.

Besides, since Wan Tianlin had not come, it was clear that he wanted to avoid deepening the conflict. Given his status as the Wan Family\'s prodigy, it certainly wasn\'t out of fear, but rather because the Blood Heart Fruit was more important to him.

"I take my leave!"

The guard sighed with relief after successfully obtaining the Blood Heart Fruit. As for what came after, that was no longer his concern.

Xu Yan smiled without stopping him. Judging by the guard\'s expression, it probably wouldn\'t be long before someone came after him.

He would just wait.

Besides, this Divine Origin Avatar of his was incapable of retaining the guard.

Watching the guard depart, Xu Yan sneered inwardly, "Now that I have the Blood Heart Fruit, let\'s see what you will do, Wan Tianlin."

To Xu Yan\'s surprise, the people from the Wan Family never came.

He couldn\'t help but feel perplexed. Could he have guessed wrong?

Was Wan Tianlin truly sincere about the transaction, cancelling all previous conflicts?

Swallowing his pride over the killing of his guard?

"Considering the power of the Wan Family, it\'s strange that Wan Tianlin could swallow such pride."

Xu Yan was filled with doubt, now somewhat conflicted. Since Wan Tianlin chose to back down, should he still seek revenge?

After all, he wasn\'t at a loss!

"No, the Wan Family\'s assassination attempt cannot be simply forgotten. Wan Tianlin may have backed down, but he hasn\'t compensated me at all."

With that thought, Xu Yan decided he still needed to draw out Wan Tianlin to settle the score.

After the Divine Origin Avatar returned, Xu Yan held the needed heavenly materials and earthly treasures in his hands, feeling ecstatic. He was one step closer to accumulating sufficient foundation.

"There are still quite a few Blood Heart Fruits. Besides the Wan Family, the geniuses of other powers will certainly need them as well. Trading another one should almost give me what I need,"

Xu Yan calculated, deciding to find a spot to consume the Blood Heart Fruit and meditate on the Eye of the Minor Heavenly Path.

As Xu Yan left Yu Zhu Slope, the guard of Wan Tianlin had already died.

A peak True King Heavenly Venerable powerhouse was killed, and the transacted Blood Heart Fruits naturally disappeared without a trace.

The two clan elders who had followed the guard secretly were in turn obstructed by strong adversaries, preventing them from following the guard the whole way,

nor escorting the Blood Heart Fruit back.

Instead, they each suffered some minor injuries. After repelling the strong enemies and rushing over quickly, they only found the guard\'s corpse.

Boom!

Yu Zhu Slope was swept by a surge of immense force, reducing the bamboos to dust, and the martial artists who had been hiding and cultivating at Yu Zhu Slope all changed color, hastily fleeing for their lives.

The elders of the Wan Family went mad; this was not an enemy they could afford to offend.

Bang!

Wan Tianlin slammed the table, his killing intent chilling, his eyes filled with a desire to devour.

For the sake of the Blood Heart Fruit, he had originally decided to bide his time and directly proceed with the transaction, only to have the other party murder and rob him of his treasure!

Such an intolerable provocation!

"Find him for me, I want to tear his body into ten thousand pieces!"

Wan Tianlin roared with a deep fury.

The entire Wan Family was stirred by this incident, two of Wan Tianlin\'s guards had actually died, and with someone setting a trap using the Blood Heart Fruit, it was clearly targeted against Wan Tianlin.

This meant a challenge against the entire Wan Family, it was an attempt to strangle the prodigy of the Wan Family.

Even an Immortal Heavenly Venerable of the Wan Family took notice of this matter, and the entire Wan Family began to demonstrate their deep foundation and power.

Dahai Mountain was shrouded in a storm of activity.

Some martial artists who showed even the slightest trace of suspicion were captured, interrogated to confirm identities, and only then were they released.

Any who resisted slightly, were executed without mercy!

"What major incident has happened? Has Heavenly Grotto invaded, or is there a traitor lurking?"

"Apart from Heavenly Grotto infiltrators or traitors, the Wan Family wouldn\'t engage in such thorough scrutiny."

"This doesn\'t feel right, if it were truly infiltrators from the Heavenly Grotto or traitors, the Wan Family would certainly offer a bounty, not keep it so secretive, not disclosing anything."

The martial artists of Dahai Mountain were all in utter shock.

The Wan Family\'s massive mobilization to search Dahai Mountain only made sense if Heavenly Grotto infiltrators or traitorous martial artists of significant strength and status who sided with the Heavenly Grotto had appeared.

However, in the past, such matters would have been made public, and a reward announced, yet this time, the large-scale search was led by the Wan Family\'s Core Guard and core forces allied with the Wan Family.

Many martial artists suspected that some kind of drastic change must have occurred within the Wan Family, hence they were only deploying their core forces without offering a large bounty.

In a certain city of Dahai Mountain, two common-looking men resembling lower-tier Loose Cultivators, watching the Wan Family\'s guard forces searching the city, exchanged a glance, seeing the smugness in each other\'s eyes.

"We need to add more fuel to the fire, arrange for someone to attack Xu Yan and make use of the Earth Shadow from the Wan Family guard."

"The Earth Shadow within the Wan Family guard is already prepared to act, but with his strength, he\'s unable to kill Xu Yan."

"There\'s no hurry to kill Xu Yan. For now, we just need both parties to confirm the other\'s involvement, without a third party suspect, and leave Xu Yan to be killed by the Wan Family."

"Understood. We, Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow, only incite conflicts and fuel hatred without getting involved. We only need to provoke the hostility; they will naturally proceed with the killing. If we get too involved, it\'s easier to expose flaws."

"In the Thirty-six Realms of the Divine Realm, facing an invasion from the Heavenly Grotto, they are of one breath and branch, supporting each other. Let the conflict begin between the Nine Mountain Realm and the Qinghua state.

"Our Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow faction is probably not known to many, and that\'s a good thing."

The two men communicated through sound transmission.

Their eyes gleamed with self-satisfaction, as if stirring up the enmity between the Wan Family and Xu Yan was something to be proud of.

A day later.

Within a dark cave, several masked individuals gathered again.

"Haven\'t found Xu Yan?"

"Correct!"

"All the Earth Shadows spread out and the ones embedded in various forces brought back no trace of Xu Yan?"

"Yes, Xu Yan seems to have vanished into thin air."

The cave fell silent for a moment, a glitch had occurred in their plan.

Having lost track of Xu Yan, without his whereabouts, how could they assassinate Xu Yan, and how could they further escalate the hatred between the Wan Family and Xu Yan?

"Has Xu Yan been captured by the Wan Family?"

"The Earth Shadows lurking in the Wan Family have received no news of Xu Yan being captured by the Wan Family."

"What if an Immortal personally took action?"

"Nowadays, the Immortal Heavenly Venerables of the Wan Family can\'t easily leave their defensive positions unless Wan Tianlin dies. Otherwise, none of the Immortals would take action.

"Moreover, even if Wan Tianlin were dead, the Immortals wouldn\'t be able to act immediately. They would have to stabilize the situation to avoid being attacked by the Xuezhi at a critical moment before making a move."

The cave became quiet once again, everyone was perplexed. Since Xu Yan had not been captured by the Wan Family, and the Immortal Heavenly Venerables had not intervened,

How did Xu Yan just disappear into thin air?

"Search, find Xu Yan as quickly as possible."

The wearer of the Ferocious Mask spoke in a heavy tone.

As they saw it, the next step of their plan could have been perfectly successful had Xu Yan not disappeared!

How could this be acceptable?

They must spare no expense to find him!
