Chapter 497: Spread

Back on the deep-space vessel, close to an hour had passed since Elder Wushing's departure. The Shadow Regent was still sitting in the same spot as before enjoying his tea when suddenly his expression changed.

He reached out into his robe and pulled out an old scroll. As he opened it, row after row of words started appearing on its surface.

It read as follows:

"Shadow Regent's treasure disk has arrived on the beast world but it was completely empty upon landing, apart from an unconscious body which belongs to Elder Wushing. After further investigation, we found out that the treasure disk initially landed at another location two empires away after arriving on the Beast World."

"Elder Kyria led a team there as soon as he found out but it was already too late. Two cities were wiped out in less than 20 minutes. The entire space was sealed off but reports of similar happenings came from 5 other cities nearby."
