Chapter 269 269:- Chaos In Western Region
The sky was getting darker. It was the time of sunset. The people who lived in Sword mist city were returning home after a long day of hard work. Only 1% of the total population of the Mist Ocean Empire called the Sword mist city their home. The rest 99% mostly lived on other islands.
In the darkness, three assassins moved through the Sword city. Without wasting any time, the three assassins appeared in front of the royal palace. Unlike other royal palaces that are built at the center of the city, the royal palace was built on the northern edge of the city.
The three assassins easily managed to sneak inside the royal palace without anyone even noticing them. Not even the 5th-order guardian cultivator who always stayed in the royal palace to make sure that no one would be able to sneak inside couldn\'t sense these assassins\' presence.
When the assassins moved they moved without making any noise. When they jumped, they landed on the ground without making any noise. They communicated with each other in sign language. All three of them wore black clothes that almost made them invisible in the darkness. All three of the assassins was master at using dark magic. Three of the assassins were able to hide in the shadows of other people.
Without anyone noticing, the three of them were able to sneak into the bedroom of the princess of the Mist Ocean Empire. Not even the old Emperor who was known for his sensory abilities was able to sense these assassins.
When the three assassins entered, the Princess was reading a history book while one of her maids massaged her shoulders. Without wasting any time, the assassins appeared behind the maid. Before anyone could react or feel anything, a sharp dagger cut the Maid\'s throat. To prevent the maid from screaming or making any noise, the assassin covered her mouth with his hand. While the other two assassins knocked the princess out by striking on her neck.
"First phase of the job is done. Now, the second phase of the plan will begin." The first assassin spoke to the other two assassins using sign language. The other assassins nodded their heads.
"Only 10 more seconds remain." They communicated using sign language.
When 10 seconds passed, a huge explosion took place near the royal palace.
Boooooooooom!!!!!
The explosion was so big that it shook the entire Sword mist city for a second. The sky was lit up with crimson-red flames. The screams of the people were heard all over the city. Even those who had gone to sleep or the cultivators were just cultivating had to open their eyes and see what was happening.
Just as the explosion took place, the guardian and the Emperor both went out of the Royal Palace to see what happened. Just as this happened, one of the assassins picked up the princess on his shoulders.
Then the three of them nodded their heads and disappeared. The assassins avoided coming in the range of strong soldiers or people in the royal palace. Whenever they went past a maid or a soldier, they would swiftly kill that person.
While everyone was distracted, the princess of the Mist Ocean had been kidnapped without anyone noticing. By the time when the Emperor and others would know this, the assassins had long gotten out of the Mist Ocean Empire.
After kidnapping the princess, the next second, assassins went to the Ageless islands empire. Using their connections, they managed to enter the capital of the Ageless Islands Empire. The Ageless islands were the neighbor of the Mist Ocean Empire and also their rival. The relationship between both Empires had recently become worse after the Ageless Islands supported the Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Mist Ocean supported the Northern Frost Dragon Empire. Even the fifth-order commanders sent by both Empires were killed by each other side.
The alliance between the seven great Empires had put this rising tension between these two neighbors on hold.
According to what the client demanded, the assassins created a fake scenario where Ageless Island is responsible for the attack on the Mist ocean capital and the kidnapping of their princess. The assassins did not harm the princess. What they did was leave the princess in the bedroom of the Ageless island\'s commander with three dead bodies. These three dead bodies were wanted criminals belonging to the ageless islands. These three men were experts at sneaking and hiding.
The last task of the assassins was to inject a special kind of venom into the princess\'s blood. So that the princess would be killed 3 hours later. Later when the Emperor of the Mist Ocean found out that his daughter has been kidnapped, someone gave him the news of this was done by Ageless Island.
The furious Emperor instantly sent his prime minister to Ageless Island to demand their princess back with compensation.
Meanwhile, the Ageless Island Emperor found out that his commander had kidnapped the princess. But was refusing to admit it even though the evident suggested something else. The Emperor was furious that his commander\'s reckless actions had earned him the fury of the Mist Ocean emperor.
To make matters worse before the princess could be given back, she unexpectedly died. Even though the Ageless islands tried to cover this news, the news was somehow leaked to the ears of the Mist Ocean.
"That\'s we are going to war. I don\'t about anything anymore. This bastard not only dared to kidnap my daughter but also kill her. I will make him pay by killing all of his children." The Mist Ocean emperor only had a single daughter whom he greatly loved and now that his daughter was dead, he had no more family.
Meanwhile, at the Ageless Island Empire
"Someone is definitely trying to frame the Ageless Island." The Emperor understood after seeing the death of the princess. But he knew that at this stage no one would believe in his words. As previously he had put the blame on his commander and had put him in prison. But now what he will say to the Mist Ocean Emperor? How did the princess die? Even if he says that this was done to start a war, the Mist Ocea emperor wouldn\'t believe his words.
Even if he says that someone had poisoned the princess, the other Emperors would say that he purposely poisoned the princess to make it look like someone else had done it.
"Fuck it. I will just fight back. I am not afraid of that bastard and his pathetic army. Prepare for war." By midnight, the two Empires\' armies had been sent out. Both of them first attacked each other ports and trade routes. Both Emperors attacked the merchants of both Empires. In this situation, the remaining 5 other Empires had to take some actions.
In the end, three of the Empires chose to remain neutral and not get involved in this war. While the Storm Empires and the Cloud Earth Empires both joined the war and began to send their troops. Within just a single night, the western island Empires went through chaotic changes. The flames of war had spread throughout the Western region.

While all these were happening, the main culprit behind all this was having a peaceful dinner with Julia\'s family. Julia\'s family had come to meet Aditya this evening.

Really Thank you very much to all those who sends support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
(I wanted to show what was happening in the western region.)
I am thinking of making a discord server. I am little bit good at drawings. So in the future, I will upload the maps of the Istarin Empire, the Dying Isle continent and the whole world. This will help you all in better visualizing what the entire Istarin Empire looks. I already have a imaginary map in my mind. I just need to get a iPad which I am planning on buying very soon.
Who knows if I have extra bit of free time, I might even draw what the Azure city which is the capital of the Istarin Empire looks like.
