Chapter 473 473: Assassin
The Undead Clan was very different from the other two great clans. They didn’t need to eat. They also didn’t need to rest or sleep. Since their bodies were already dead, they could do without food.
In fact, they only absorbed the aura of death from the Nether Realm to survive. That’s why, the Undead who protected the Soul Land didn’t work in shifts. That didn’t leave any gap in security since there was no need for shift changes, or the confusion it could’ve brought.
Twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, fifty two weeks a year, the same faces could be seen guarding the Soul Land. It also made the Undead more alert. That knew everything about this area and could instantly sense even the most minute of changes.
However, currently, even they couldn’t sense anything wrong.
Alion moved like a ghost. Not only did he not make any noise, but he also merged with the wind, as if he and the wind were one, to make sure no one could detect him.
Even though he wasn’t as strong as Gabriel, he had his own skills. To be able to survive for so long, even when so many people wanted to kill him, he had already honed his skills to the level of perfection.
He already had a rough idea about the position of the Silver Eyed Undead. Now all he had to do was kill the four of them without being detected and without making a noise. For that exact reason, he also brought a spatial treasure with him where he could store the bodies after killing them so the others couldn’t notice.
The Silver Eyed already lacked intelligence which made it slightly easy for Alion.
It wasn’t long before he located a silver eyes Undead. Since the silver eyed Undeads were important for the Undead Clan, they were kept in the back at some distance from the guards who stood at the front! As soon as Alion passed by the guards, everything else was much smoother.
He appeared silently behind one of the Silver Eyed Undead like a thousand year old ghost!
With his left hand, he closed the mouth of the silver haired undead while with his right hand, he stabbed his knife in his throat. The Silver Eyed Undead was stunned.
If he had his normal intelligence, he would’ve teleported away as soon as someone touched him. However, he wasn’t that smart. Instead, he just trembled as he was killed.
As soon as he killed the Silver-eyed Undead, Alion kept the body in his treasure storage before disappearing in the darkness as if nothing happened!
The guards who stood in the front didn’t hear anything strange. They just stood like statues, keeping an eye on their surroundings.
In fact, if it wasn’t for the fact that entering the Soul Land was going to make a loud noise, Alion could’ve already entered the Soul Land without being detected!
After killing a Silver-eyed Undead, Alion moved to his next Target. He followed the same method and killed his next Target as well. His Assassination Skills weren’t something that one could ignore.
Within the next ten minutes, Alion successfully killed all four Silver Eyed Undeads. It was only after that, he sent a signal to Jia! It was time for her to move!
Jia was standing at the entrance of the area that led to the soul land. She was already starting to get somewhat bored, wondering when it was going to be her turn to take action.
It was only when she received the signal that the corners of her lips crept upwards, revealing a smirk.
“Finally.”
She raised her sword. Her powerful aura covered the entire area! There was no need for her to wait anymore! Now all she had to do was attract all insects in her direction so that she could keep them busy, allowing Alion an opportunity to enter the Soul Land and save the two souls.
Feeling the unfamiliar aura, the Undeads who were guarding the Soul Land were stunned! This wasn’t a place where others were allowed to come!

Some of them decided to send someone to inform their main clan. At the same time, the rest went to intercept the enemy!
It wasn’t long before the Undeads realized that they couldn’t send information back! The Silver Eyed Undeads were missing! Not even a single trace of theirs could be found! It was as if they had disappeared into thin air!
This made them realize that something wasn’t right! The way to send information back went missing. Now the only path before them to send the information back was to take the long road and go back to the main clan physically!
However, the aura that they had felt before came from that direction exactly. It was clear that someone was blocking that path! Moreover, the aura was getting closer!
Over a hundred undead were alert at once. Someone was targeting the Soul Land and there was no doubt left in their minds!
All of them rushed toward the aura. No matter who it was, they couldn’t allow them to enter the Soul Land! They had to kill the intruder!
They didn’t realize that one of the intruders was already standing at the entrance of the Soul Land.
Alion came out of hiding, watching the Undeads go in Jia’s direction. He still didn’t enter the Soul Land, as if he was still waiting for something.
He had to wait for the battle between Jia and the Undead. He knew that once he entered the Soul Land, it was going to make some noise. He wanted that noise to be buried in the battle sounds of Jia!
In fact, he already told Jia what she had to do. Now all he had to do was wait.
He sighed deeply, glancing at the two blue stones in his hand. The two stones weren’t as precious as the red stone received from the Goddess of Light.
They couldn’t heal a soul that was broken into thousands of pieces. However, these step stones were enough to store an intact soul each, at least temporarily. This was also what Alion brought with him to save Novius and Cylix.
It wasn’t long before the sound of battle resounded. Alion clenched his fist. It was finally time for him to enter the Soul Land!
He was slightly curious about what the Soul Land was like. However, more than that, he knew that he had to be careful since this place was dangerous. If he made a mistake, even escaping that place was going to be impossible.
His eyes flashed with determination as he finally stepped inside the Soul Land!
