Later, when Zhong Kui sacrificed himself to protect her in the spirit realm, she forgave him, though she warned there would not be a second ti.
After that, he never betrayed her again.
In that instant, many thoughts flashed through Xiao Shou’s mind.
His earlier confusion faded, replaced by calm.
He began to carefully consider how to eliminate all traces of this matter.
It was this calmness that made him think of his Dissolution Pill.
Once it touched a body, it could turn the body into air. Contact with water would cancel the effect.
Back in the ancient cultivator’s cave, he had held the pill in his mouth before swallowing it, but it dissolved early because it ca into contact with his saliva.
But would it work on a corpse?
Xiao Shou decided to test it.
He took out a Dissolution Pill and tossed it onto the blood soaked ground.
In the blink of an eye, the blood, flesh, and bone fragnts on the ground completely disappeared, leaving not the slightest trace.
Seeing this, Xiao Shou felt a surge of relief.
He quickly used an array plate to seal off that portion of air, then attached a Tier 4 teleportation talisman to the array.
At the mont the talisman activated, he imdiately moved out of its range.
Only after watching the array successfully teleport away did he finally let out a breath.
The array plate was only a Tier 1 confinent array and the spirit stones within it could maintain its function for at most a quarter of an hour.
The Tier 4 teleportation talisman could instantly move about four thousand kiloters.
Taking into account the coastal wind currents, he deliberately chose a direction aligned with the wind.
In this way, the air ford from Xiang Yu’s dissolved remains was transported four thousand kiloters downwind.
After a quarter of an hour, the array’s effect would dissipate and releasing the confined air.
It would then scatter with the wind until it ca into contact with water, at which point the effect would end.
As long as no Deity Transformation expert from the Heavenly Void Sect personally investigated, even Nascent Soul cultivators would not be able to reach a location four thousand kiloters away from White Silver City within a single day.
This ant the soul would only linger near the site of the incident.
After two or three days, Xiang Yu’s remains could end up anywhere.
By the ti anyone traced it using a soul lamp, there would be nothing left to find.
Next, he had to deal with the remaining items.
Xiao Shou frowned as he looked at the storage belt.
He recalled how, in many cultivation stories, protagonists would take items from the storage bags of those they killed, only to be tracked down because of hidden marks left by the original owners.
He had no intention of making such a foolish mistake.
Useful or not, everything would be altered.
After being processed by his Absolute Fusion ability, any marks or traces would disappear, turning the items into completely new objects.
This was far safer than simply destroying them.
Besides, he was already wealthy enough and did not need to covet these things.
With that in mind, Xiao Shou took out everything from the storage belt.
He first gathered all of Xiang Yu’s clothes to one side and cast a fireball, burning them to ashes.
Careless as he was, Xiao Shou did not notice that beneath the pile of clothes was a bloodstained woman’s dress.
It was incinerated along with everything else.
That dress had been Xiang Yu’s keepsake, it was a nto from Xiao Ran.
Xiao Shou then casually took out his own storage bag while the fire burned and fused it together with Xiang Yu’s storage belt.
The storage belt was imdiately upgraded to a mid grade item.
Xiao Shou looked at it with so distaste. Throwing it away would be wasteful, so he simply set it aside for now.
He then copied all the jade slips that recorded techniques, manuals, and similar information and placing the copies into his own storage bag.
After that, he fused the originals together at random.
Once processed, even if the sect master of the Heavenly Void Sect personally ca, they would not be able to recognize them.
As for the identity token, he tossed it into a pile of miscellaneous items and fused it as well.
Xiao Shou who is completely absorbed in his work had no idea that after learning the direction he had left the city, the City Lord of White Silver City Wang Weizhong had imdiately rushed over.
From afar, Wang Weizhong first saw a tornado of wind and lightning rise into the sky from the center of the bamboo forest.
Then it transford into a storm of wind, fire, and lightning that shot upward.
He could not help but beco extrely curious about the "friend" ntioned by the Chen brothers.
What level of cultivation would be required to unleash such power?
He knew he could not achieve that himself.
Then he saw a golden sword energy soar into the sky, colliding with the storm and canceling it out.
His heart trembled.
That level of sword energy was not sothing a Golden Core cultivator could release.
At the very least, it had to be from a Nascent Soul cultivator.
He himself was only at the Golden Core stage.
If he went in, he would simply be throwing his life away.
Should he go or not?
A battle of that level was beyond him.
No wonder the Chen brothers dared to reveal the existence of an undiscovered secret realm and even offer entry slots in exchange.
Was it because their friend was strong enough to contend with cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage?
But if their friend was that powerful, why invite him here at all?
Unless they themselves did not fully understand their friend’s true strength.
It seed their relationship with this friend was not as close as he had initially thought.
