With the fall of the middle-aged cultivator, Lu Qingshan did not breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, he frowned.
The ambush was decisive and ruthless.
This did not seem like an attack specifically targeting him, but rather because he happened to be in Tai'an City.
Was it a method arranged by someone behind the scenes to conceal the news of Tai'an City?
Leaving a powerful figure hidden in Tai'an City to eliminate all who came, thereby maintaining secrecy.
It appeared so.
But on closer thought, there were many bizarre and unreasonable aspects.
An entire city's population disappearing into thin air; no matter how exceptional the methods of those behind the scenes, how could they cover this up with such a crude measure?
They could hide it temporarily, but not forever.
This was completely different from their previous modus operandi.
Previously, they targeted inconspicuous small sects and erased traces of these sects from the world through their means.
