The simmering conflict between the Celestial Heavenly Store and the City Lord came to an unexpected halt. Every resident of Clear Wind City was surprised.
In their minds, the City Lord was the unrivaled overlord of the city, his power and influence beyond question. But the sudden silence from the City Lord's mansion left everyone confused.

It was as if they had vanished into thin air.
Ten Expert Martial Artists—gone without a trace.
Even a fool could see that something powerful was at play. How could the three clan masters dare to leave their homes now?
