There were some things you could do, but not openly.
Since Ye Zhen had decided to eliminate Zhao Shi, who was closely connected to Ming Tang and might know the secrets of the True Profound Continent, he naturally had to make a trip to the Heaven Temple's Shahe City Branch Temple.
Making a move against the abbot of one branch temple of a colossal entity like the Heaven Temple—if he openly charged in and killed him, then even if Ye Zhen could find himself a high-sounding justification, it would be no different from courting death.
Therefore, Ye Zhen had to act in secret. At the very least, he could not leave behind any evidence.
After all, before doing this, Ye Zhen had considered every aspect of the consequences it would bring.
Thus, Ye Zhen silently slipped into the Heaven Temple's Shahe City Branch Temple using the Innate Five Elements Divine Evasion.
According to Ye Zhen's plan, he would sneak in quietly. With the might of two Acquired Spirit Treasures, especially the Purple Spirit Immortal Sword under Zi Ling's control, an ambush would surely kill Zhao Shi, whose cultivation was only at the eighth layer of the World King Realm.
Even if he failed to strike successfully in one blow, with Ling Qianbi, Big Ear's innate divine ability, and the Demon Commander Avatar assisting him, he could still kill Abbot Zhao Shi in the shortest possible time—and slaughter the witnesses along the way to silence them.
Originally, Ye Zhen's plan had a success rate as high as ninety-nine percent. But just as he slipped beneath the Sun Moon Divine Palace of the branch temple, an accident occurred.
And the thing that went wrong was the Innate Five Elements Divine Evasion, the method least likely to go wrong.
