Under the pitch-black night sky, a shadow agilely darted across the rooftops, leaping over the wide gaps between houses and over the broad streets below. 

Due to the Alchemist Grand Meeting, even though it was already late at night, the streets were still bustling with people. 

Fortunately, the figure in mid-air kept mysteriously vanishing into the space itself, and even if anyone noticed something, they simply dismissed it as their senses playing tricks.

Spatial travel? That was a technique only a Dou Zong could possess, and the Jia Ma Empire hadn't seen a Dou Zong in countless years.

Following closely behind the gray-robed man, Mo Yu used the power of his Flash Void Breaking Thunder, allowing him to make small-scale spatial jumps. Despite the gray-robed man's high level of vigilance, he didn't sense anything unusual at all.

"Is this the place?" Mo Yu murmured quietly as he saw the gray-robed man stop at a secluded inn.

"So, this is where he's staying," Mo Yu smiled slightly before vanishing again. In the next moment, a green silhouette appeared on the roof of a building some ten meters away.

Landing softly on the rooftop without making a sound, Mo Yu's eyebrows suddenly twitched.

"Oh? This guy is more cautious than I thought," Mo Yu muttered playfully. A thin black thread stretched out in front of him, barely noticeable in the darkness. Following the thread, he saw that both ends of it were connected to two small black bells.

"Too bad it's just a minor trick." With a wave of his hand, a flash of crimson thunder silently streaked through the air. The two small bells were instantly melted into nothingness without making a single sound.

Just as Mo Yu was about to use his spatial abilities to enter the room and investigate, several powerful presences suddenly appeared not far away, causing him to pause.

"Someone's coming... This familiar energy... it's them."

Muttering softly, Mo Yu concealed his presence completely using the spatial power of his Flash Void Breaking Thunder, then hid in a spot where no one could see him.

Just as Mo Yu had hidden himself, several figures silently appeared on the rooftop.

It was none other than Fa Ma, Elder Jia, and the duo of Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong.

Seeing these four, Mo Yu wasn't surprised. The identity of the gray-robed man had indeed drawn the attention of the higher-ups of the Jia Ma Empire, as well as Xiao Yan.

As the four appeared, the royal protector Elder Jia suddenly squinted his eyes, his gaze sharp as he stared in the direction where Mo Yu was hiding.

"What's wrong?" Noticing Elder Jia's odd behavior, Fa Ma followed his gaze but found nothing unusual and asked in confusion.

"Uh... it's nothing. I'm probably just getting old and losing focus," Elder Jia furrowed his brows slightly before shaking his head with a smile.

For some reason, he faintly sensed a subtle spatial fluctuation in that direction. If it weren't for the fact that he was a peak Dou Huang and only a step away from the Dou Zong realm, he probably wouldn't have noticed anything.

But controlling spatial power was something only those above the Dou Zong level could do.

In the entire Jia Ma Empire, aside from himself, the only other person who could possibly break through to Dou Zong was the former Sect Leader of Yun Lan Sect, Yun Shan, who had been in seclusion for several years.

Could Yun Shan have broken through to Dou Zong?

Shaking his head at the thought, Elder Jia dismissed it. If Yun Shan had broken through, he would have announced it to the world immediately rather than sneak around in the imperial capital, spying on others.

"Not bad for a peak Dou Huang. He almost detected me," Mo Yu sighed silently when he noticed Elder Jia's glance in his direction.

Using spatial power to conceal his presence was one of the abilities Mo Yu had gained after the evolution of his Flash Void Breaking Thunder. Typically, no one below the Dou Zong level would be able to sense him.

However, Elder Jia, having dwelled at the peak of Dou Huang for many years, had nearly noticed something was amiss.

Mo Yu wasn't ready to reveal his presence just yet, as he planned to seize the Emperor Origin Blood Essence Fruit from the gray-robed man and didn't want Fa Ma and the others to discover his whereabouts.

"Alright, stop overthinking. Let's find out exactly what this guy from the Chu Yun Empire is up to."

On the rooftop, Hai Bodong chuckled, extending his withered hand from his sleeve. A faint white mist swirled around his palm, and the surrounding temperature plummeted instantly due to the chilling aura.

With a gentle press of his hands, the white mist spread across the tiles, quickly expanding until it covered the entire rooftop.

"Ice Mirror!"

As Hai Bodong softly commanded, the mist condensed into a thin layer of ice, covering the entire roof.

"Show yourself!"

With another command, the thin ice layer became translucent. After a few moments, the image of a spacious room appeared on the ice, as though a film was being projected, revealing every object within the room.

Seeing this, Mo Yu raised an eyebrow. He had to admit, Hai Bodong's control over ice was impressive.

If he hadn't witnessed many grandmasters of ice manipulation in his past life, he might have been fascinated by Hai Bodong's skill.

As the Ice Mirror appeared, the group on the rooftop fell silent.

After nearly half an hour of silence, the door in the image projected by the Ice Mirror moved slightly, and a gray-robed figure slowly entered the room.

The gray-robed youth did nothing unusual after entering the room. He closed the door, washed up casually, and then sat cross-legged on the bed to meditate.

After a period of meditation, the gray-robed youth suddenly took out a red pill and swallowed it.

Not long after consuming the red pill, the youth's youthful face began to twist and contort frighteningly. At the same time, his body grew significantly taller. Within moments, the seventeen-year-old youth had transformed into a cold-faced middle-aged man, leaving those watching in shock.

Upon seeing the middle-aged man, a faint smile appeared on Mo Yu's lips.

The vice president of the Alchemist Guild in the Chu Yun Empire, Yan Li—so it really was you.

"Ah... It feels so much better to return to my original appearance. At least now I can exert my full strength," the middle-aged man said with a satisfied smile, feeling the surging power flowing through his body.

The middle-aged man touched his face, as if recalling something, and suddenly walked quickly to the bedside. From behind the bed curtains, he found a black string and gave it a gentle pull.

On the roof, seeing the man pull the string, Mo Yu raised his eyebrows.

As expected, the bell connected to that string had already been incinerated into ash by the Vermilion Burning Sky Thunder.

Sure enough, in the next moment, upon discovering the anomaly, Yan Li let out a furious shout: "Who's up there?"

"Make your move." Hearing the shout, Elder Jia sneered, waved his hand, and his body abruptly disappeared.

Following Elder Jia, Hai Bodong and the others also turned into a gust of wind and vanished from the rooftop.

Seeing this, Mo Yu hesitated for a moment, suppressing his impulse to act.

If nothing unexpected happened, even if Fa Ma and the others discovered the identity of the grey-robed man, they wouldn't immediately strike to kill.

After all, if a participant in the Alchemist Grand Meeting died at the hands of Fa Ma and the others, the reputation of the Alchemist Association in the Jia Ma Empire would be in ruins.

Therefore, Mo Yu was in no hurry; he only needed to watch the scene unfold.

At this moment, with the intervention of Hai Bodong and the others, Yan Li, with only the strength of a seven- or eight-star Dou Ling, was utterly no match for them.

In just a brief moment, he was sent flying, coughing up blood.

"Fa Ma, I know it's you! I, Yan Li, dared to come to your Jia Ma Imperial City, so I'm not afraid of you killing me. But if you do, your Alchemist Association will be done for!" Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the man sneered viciously at the approaching figures.

Upon hearing this, the figure paused, as if realizing something, and reluctantly withdrew. In a flash, they appeared by the table, casting a cold glance at the collapsed Yan Li.

"Fa Ma, so it really is you!" Spitting out a mouthful of blood-tinged saliva, Yan Li growled venomously.

A gentle breeze swirled in the room, and moments later, Hai Bodong and Fa Ma's figures appeared, staring icily at Yan Li.

Seeing that Fa Ma and the others hadn't struck a fatal blow, Mo Yu, hidden in the shadows, silently confirmed his suspicions.

Yan Li was the vice president of the Alchemist Association in the Chu Yun Empire, a position of considerable status. Since he dared to infiltrate the Jia Ma Empire alone, he must have had some significant backup.

Fa Ma's face was grim, and his murky eyes gleamed coldly.

"Huff." After a moment, in the tense atmosphere of the room, Fa Ma, whose expression had been fluctuating, finally exhaled and coldly said, "Fine, I won't kill you now. But don't think you can easily win the grand meeting championship."

"Hmph, that's none of your concern." Yan Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief but still sneered.

"Then we'll see." Fa Ma's lips barely moved as he spoke, his voice colder than ice.

"Let's go." With a wave of his sleeve, Fa Ma barked a command, his body transforming into a dark shadow as he left the room. Hai Bodong and Elder Jia, though reluctant, had no choice but to follow.

"Old bastard, daring to threaten me. Once I win the championship, my exposure will be too high. I don't believe you'll dare make a move against me then."

Gritting his teeth, Yan Li muttered coldly, his voice trembling with a hint of fear.

After all, with three Dou Huang experts targeting him, anyone would be scared.

However, in his fear-clouded mind, Yan Li failed to notice the strange spatial mark that had silently been placed on the back of his neck.

Seeing the spatial mark successfully planted, Mo Yu, hidden in the shadows, relaxed slightly before vanishing mysteriously from the scene.

With this mark, he could track Yan Li's position in the capital at all times.

Once the Alchemist Grand Meeting concluded, it would be Yan Li's time to die.
