The dark-skinned cultivator's five fingers curled like hooks, gripping True Monarch Red Refinement’s skullcap. The latter's brain matter turned into a pile of bloody mush.
True Monarch Red Refinement’s nearly shattered nascent soul, just barely regaining a thread of clarity, was instantly devoured by a mysterious force of law and vanished without a trace.
"Even a mosquito’s leg is still meat."
The dark-skinned cultivator smacked his lips. The nearly transparent mask on his face, thin as a cicada’s wing shifted and warped.
This scene bore an uncanny resemblance to how the Master of Unseen Gate had assassinated the Palace Master of Proud Moon Palace, both involved approaching under the guise of a familiar cultivator before erupting in a sudden kill.
Lan Chang'an lacked such professional stealth techniques or assassination arts.
However, his Evergreen Technique was excellent at concealing one’s presence, and with the assistance of a rare item like the Black Wind Cloak, the effect was not much inferior.
In addition, he possessed fourth-rank divination skills, and his spiritual sense perception far surpassed the Unseen Gate Master's.
At present, both “Xiang Dalong” and Lord Earthrock were stationed at the frontline fortress.
True Monarch Red Refinement had been monitoring from the rear, never expecting puppet master Xiang Dalong to also be skilled in infiltration and assassination.
