The Capital city underwent a full sweep in a single night and changed to a new face the next day.

The hustle and bustle had reduced now that the Tournament of the Four Guardians was over. All the cultivators that had come to watch it had started to return, with the Cross World Teleportation Array running nonstop.

Normally, people would stay a bit longer, with some even taking the chance to tour the world they had come to. But with the controversial and dangerous events that had happened during this tournament, they felt like it was no longer safe to be there.

Those who were a bit smarter and more experienced could sense the sinister undercurrents hidden behind the facade of security.

They knew better than to delay their stay and wished to leave as soon as possible. Not to mention, there were many who simply wished to return to their worlds and report all that had happened here. After all, not all worlds can afford real time transfer of information and news.

Someone interfering in the Tournament of the Four guardians and breaking its rules would be pretty big news that would surprise many worlds.

Not to mention, this hadn't just happened once, not twice, but thrice!

Dugu Shanhe with his unorthodox forbidden skills, Yao Changying with her attack of the temple members and rule break as well as the Third Prince Feng Baxing using a life saving talisman against the winner.

Then there was the sudden appearance of the Colossal Cloud Serpent that had crippled the Third Prince.

The latter was something that millions of people had watched and couldn't be hidden.

Thankfully, the three emperors and the Temple of the Four Guardians moved together to change the narrative.

Feng Baxing was publicly denounced by Emperor Feng and deemed a criminal by the Temple. As such, they gave the excuse that the Colossal Cloud Serpent was actually the punishment from the temple itself!

No one would question the ability of the temple to do something like this, as such it became an easy lie. Not to mention, it also gave the Temple a chance to save some face. It strengthened their authority again and showed their might.

With the three emperors of the Rust Sky world and the Temple confirming it themselves, there were no protests from anyone.

Of course, the excuse was only possible due to the fact that the Saintess herself had told them to hide her involvement. As such, they didn't mind taking the credit.

After they were 'restrained' by the being from the void, the Emperor and the other top powers of the Rust Sky world had been scared deeply. In fact, other than the Emperors the rest of the top experts literally chose to hide in seclusion and vowed not to go out for at least a hundred years.
