Chapter 948: Chapter 319 Is Anyone Home?_2 Chapter 948: Chapter 319 Is Anyone Home?_2 And then a figure shot out of the window like lightning, feet kicking off the frame, rising into the air like a bird.

Blades flashed brilliantly all around, as four knives came slashing toward the waist at the same time.

Feng Yin’s toes retracted, and his entire body turned into a stream of light, twisting his form into a rising dragon just as the knives almost grazed his garments.

He immediately deployed “Stealing the Sky and Changing the Day.”

With a whoosh, he conjured hundreds of afterimages.

In an instant, he was a hundred yards away.

Such speed was simply astonishing.

Hundreds of prepared experts all exclaimed in surprise.

They saw Feng Yin moving through the air, dodging left and right, his afterimages still flickering to the east while his body had already reached the treetop of a large tree a thousand yards away.

A purple-robed elder appeared like a specter.

With a long sword hanging at his waist, he chose not to draw it.

Instead, his palm, heavy as a mountain, came crashing down with ferocity.

Although the attack was powerful, it carried little killing intent.

Obviously, he intended to capture Feng Yin alive.

Just as Feng Yin’s form surged upward, his lean body spun in mid-air, and he slammed out with a palm.

Boom!

Their palms collided with full force.

The purple-robed elder let out a muffled grunt.

He flew backward like a broken kite, drifting unsteadily to the roof of a nearby building before coming to a stop, the roof tiles cracking beneath his feet.

His eyes filled with disbelief as he looked over and exclaimed in a lost voice, “He’s reached Cloud Top!?”

Feng Yin didn’t reply. After his palm strike and the rebound that followed, he stood as immovable as a deep pool or a towering mountain, unfazed by the intense force of the backlash.

He flew up gracefully, covering a hundred yards in the air with an effortless, quiet pivot.

Without pausing, his hand imperceptibly traced a tiny circle and beckoned.

On the other side, Feng Ying, who had been ready, exerted his strength!

Illusory Silkworm Thread!

Whoosh!

Feng Yin, like a sparkler attached to a rocket, shot diagonally into the air, flying as if he would never stop.

In an instant, he had reached the clouds.

It seemed like a coincidence.

A cloud drifted by, obscuring Feng Yin’s form.

And when the cloud leisurely floated away, Feng Yin’s body had disappeared from midair.

Under the clear blue sky, a living person had just vanished into thin air.

All over Yanhui Building, countless onlookers gazed upward, their jaws dropping in shock!

Could it be that in broad daylight, they had seen a ghost?

How could a man disappear immediately after soaring into the sky, with everyone watching?

The officials and experts from the Ministry of Justice stood there, dumbfounded.

They had never expected that not only had this person not cooperated, but he had also escaped so cleanly and without any bloodshed.

And just like that, the matter was over.

“City-wide alert!”

“This Dong Deduo must indeed be the Tender!”

“No matter what, we must arrest and bring him to justice!”

In an instant,

The entire Capital City sprang into action.

Meanwhile, Feng Yin had already assumed a new identity and appeared in the Northern City District, the area closest to the imperial palace.

The place was vast, home to nobles and high-ranking officials.

Feng Yin blended in like a drop of water into the sea.

Yet he couldn’t help but inwardly admire the efficiency of Great Qin’s government, extraordinary indeed.

Feng Yin had estimated that it would take at least two days to trace anything back to Dong Deduo.

However, he hadn’t expected to be pinpointed right from the start.

“A great empire, indeed teeming with outstanding talents, should never be underestimated,” Feng Yin sighed to himself.

Such efficiency was truly remarkable.

“Next, they’ll probably start a curfew…” Feng Yin pondered in his mind.

Almost as if in correspondence with his thoughts,

The order for a curfew was issued throughout the city just as he was considering it.

After the curfew, no one, no matter who, was allowed on the streets.

Violators would be treated as rebels.

Rebellion meant death, and not just death, but the execution that extended to one’s entire family.

Instantly, people scattered like birds and beasts.

Hurrying home, each to his own mother.

“They’re trying to force me to stay at an inn… Not staying in an inn and wandering around outside would make me more conspicuous. Hiding in some beggar’s den wouldn’t be secure either.”

“Staying at an inn would also lead to immediate discovery.”

“This move is quite ruthless. Oh my, I might have been in trouble…”

Feng Yin casually found a towering ancient tree, a Starlight Sandalwood. Judging by the age of the tree, it was definitely over ten thousand years old.

It was so thick that it would take seven or eight people to encircle it with their arms.

To know that such a tree, so hardy and robust, and still flourishing after growing so thick, speaks to its ancient lifespan.

He lightly tapped it once.

Waiting quietly.

After a brief pause, he tapped it again.

With both hands pointing down and his body slightly bent, as if gauging something…

The movements were exceedingly sneaky.

To an onlooker, it seemed this person had no decency… was he really hiding behind this big tree to urinate?

Are you that desperate?

To start hissing right at the edge of the imperial city?

People cast disdainful glances and quickly walked away.

Feng Yin didn’t care about being seen; he maintained the standard posture of urination for a moment. Then, he circled the tree, quietly converging energy into water, and poured it at the base of the tree.

Creating the impression that ‘the guy really had relieved himself here.’

Then he disappeared immediately.

No more than a quarter hour had passed,

Before someone came to check the place.

“You’re saying someone just urinated here?”

“And then disappeared afterward?”

“Yes, I saw it with my own eyes,” an observer confirmed.

A guard in black armor frowned as he examined the wet spot on the ground that hadn’t completely dried yet.

He looked around at the footprints,

Gauged the distances in various directions,

And then, with an almost revolted expression from the onlookers, he picked up some of the ‘urine’ with his finger and actually tasted it with his tongue.
