Chapter 2441 Heng Tianshous Intentions
Lin Xun couldn't help but frown.
The two assassination factions, Empty Hidden World and Between Water and Cloud, were famous in the Eternal True Realm for ‘assassination’ and ‘murder’ respectively.
With history that could be traced all the way back to ancient times, it was impossible to know how many Emperors had fallen victim to them over the years. Who in their right mind wouldn’t fear such mysterious factions?
Additionally, according to the green sparrow, the members of these two factions deeply immersed themselves in the art of killing and were freaks who grew up amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. As such, their assassination techniques were simply unrivaled.
It was basically a death sentence to be targeted by them!
A long time ago, Between Water and Cloud became a target of public outrage due to assassinating a few too many influential figures from the Immortal Imperial Clans. As a result, the Immortal Imperial Clans banded together to take a stand against Between Water and Cloud.
What followed was an extremely bloody war that spanned across many years, with the elusive assassins of Between Water and Cloud counterattacking as fiercely as possible. It was a dark and turbulent period where many mighty cultivator titans lost their lives.
In the end, Between Water and Cloud was nearly eradicated and the last few survivors were rumored to have gone into hiding.
After the event, news of Between Water and Cloud grew sparser and sparser, and memories of that dark and bloody period soon began to fade from the people’s minds.
On the other hand, Empty Hidden World, which was said to be on par with Between Water and Cloud, rarely provoked the Immortal Imperial Clans, and thus didn’t stir any public outrage.
However, there was no doubt that Empty Hidden World’s foundations weren’t the slightest bit inferior to Between Water and Cloud!
Even Immortal Imperial Clans would not carelessly mess with them either.
