What had just happened

Yu Sui walked across the water without pause.

The river was sealed with sacred mantras, each one a divine lock meant to repel darkness

but none of them could touch him.

They failed

as if bowing before something far beyond their reach.

The boat had nearly reached the edge of Ming Jing Men Sect, when suddenly,

Yu Sui leapt into the air, soaring high

and landed firmly on the roof of the boat with the grace of a silent predator.

The boat slammed into the shore with force.

Some girls and boys managed to escape,

but most perished instantly.

The boat itself turned into a blackened ruin, crumbling under invisible pressure.

The survivors stumbled into the academy gates, screaming in terror:

"He's here... the Black Heaven King has arrived!"

The entire sect was thrown into chaos.

Even Master Shen Jichuan stood frozen, stunned at the name.

Two elders of the Clan...Elder Rong and Shen Jichuan himself...rushed to investigate the wreckage.

But what they found left them even more shocked.

The boat

was perfectly intact.

Floating calmly at the river's edge,

untouched.

And at the same time,

a message arrived from within their own Clan:

"Some of our children took a boat and fled. They're safe."

The elders looked at each other, utterly baffled.

What had just happened?

What they didn't know…

was that this had all been a trick.

Yu Sui

had shown the living world a glimpse of the future.

A prophecy made real.

A vision…

of what was to come.
