Shui Yunling took the opportunity to apply for the usage rights of the Phantom Cloak. The Phantom Cloak is a powerful magical artifact of the Shui Family stored in cyberspace, and anyone with usage rights can temporarily wield it.
The black Phantom Cloak settled on Shui Yunling's back, fluttering without wind. Armed with the Phantom Cloak, Shui Yunling became elusive, hard to distinguish between real and illusion.
According to the pre-arranged plan, obtaining the Phantom Cloak meant she could leave the battlefield immediately.
The issue was that Gao Xuan had already fled; leaving now would render her actions pointless.
Having killed a bunch of Paladins, headquarters would surely demand accountability. Though it wouldn't affect her much, it was ultimately embarrassing.
More importantly, Shui Yunling grew intensely interested in the Deep Sea's Divine Crystal.
