Yellow Talismans filled the sky.
The moment the first explosion sounded, thousands of townsfolk at the Crossroads Intersection, who had come to witness the execution, were thrown into complete chaos, screaming in terror.
The County Lieutenant on the Execution Stage was the first to spot the figures on the eaves hidden behind the Talisman Papers.
There were dozens of them. After the first Talisman Paper, a plethora of Yellow Talismans descended, hitting the ground and walls, and exploding on impact.
Some of the Yellow Talismans contained strange forces, similar to gunpowder, exploding upon touching the ground. Others emitted yellow light and thick smoke, adding to the confusion at the scene.
Suddenly, in a flash, the scene became enveloped in thick smoke, fog, and twisting flames.
What about Chen Ku? He was right there when a few Talisman Papers, wreathed in yellow light and thick smoke, exploded above the vegetable stall to his left.
In an instant, Chen Ku disappeared.
