The investigation team had grasped Wen Yu's little tail and immediately left City M.
In a whirlwind of activity, they rushed off, blissfully unaware of the strange creature hidden in the sky above them, resembling a mass of energy.
They couldn't be expected to discover it; first, they lacked soul perception, and second, they couldn't possibly use origin power on such trivial matters.
Thus, just five minutes after their departure, this matter was already delivered into Wen Yu's hands.
The specific conversation details were unclear to the Cloud Puppet Clan member—after all, he wouldn't dare to eavesdrop on the intelligence of an eleventh level strongman. However, he had seen Amida's time reversal quite clearly.
From the very beginning, they aimed to uncover all of Wen Yu's secrets. At that time, Wen Yu was still young and not very guarded, treating his rebirth as a great fortune bestowed by heaven, unaware of the many twists and turns involved.
The loose lips back then had morphed into today's vulnerabilities... exposure was only to be expected.
"I didn't anticipate that the timing would be so fortuitous, coincidentally at level seven, and that these treasure land guardians would reach this point..."
Wen Yu pondered for a moment and realized that there was a benefactor assisting him. He was unclear about the intricate details but was already well-prepared for what lay ahead and what he needed to do.
So, Wen Yu stood up, calculated his strength one last time, and then left the secret chamber. He made his way through the teleportation node to a certain location in the Layered Battlefield.
Zone 7, Continent 0339.
The scenery was beautiful, with solitary smoke rising in the desert...
A fitting resting place.
Perhaps it was for himself, or perhaps for others.
...
A group led by the Cloud Puppet Clan entered the Layered Battlefield through a portal near Beijing.
Indeed—they walked in. The Layered Battlefield had no treasure land, so there were naturally no treasure land guardians. Likewise, these guardians did not have the authority to come and go freely in the Layered Battlefield; they could only enter the Main City of the Layered Battlefield through proper channels like normal immigrants.
Of course, they had their advantages—such as the main control system of the Main City of the Layered Battlefield.
Just like a computer system, developers always leave various backdoors. The sovereign who constructed the Main City of the Layered Battlefield and even the Eternal Sky City left hidden backdoors within the main control systems of these locations.
"I give you these main cities, and you may use them at will. However, if you truly treat it as your own little toy, that only proves you are too young..."
Treasure land guardians did not possess the same level of power and authority as the sovereign; they could not fully control the main control system of the Layered Battlefield, but using this tool to locate someone was incredibly simple.
The three, braving the strange gazes of the Earth's inhabitants, swaggered into the central control tower of the Main City of the Layered Battlefield. At the entrance, they were naturally blocked by the Mountain Puppet Clan members guarding the area.
"Treasure land guardian no. 7, visiting in accordance with the sovereign's order to see Sequence One—Lord Wen Yu."
A standard reason—They did not dare to act too recklessly, nor did their approach come across as domineering. Wen Yu had already informed the Mountain Puppets in advance, so upon facing the three, the Mountain Puppet Clan members merely bowed their heads respectfully and replied.
"The master is not here."
"Then where is he?"
"In Zone 7, Continent 0339."
The guard spoke the truth. After pondering for a moment, the Cloud Puppet Clan member remained half-convinced.
"I need to check the main control system of the Layered Battlefield."
"Certainly."
The guard nodded in agreement.
...
Ten minutes later, when the Mountain Puppet led the three out of the central control tower, their expressions were impassive, yet their eyes gradually sparkled with insight.
