That night, when Double Xie, the Immovable One, and Linghu Xiang hurried to Han Yu's Mansion, it was already too late.
They found only a corpse in the study, its face frozen in terror, its body ice cold.
Beside Han Yu's body on the ground, there also lay an array—not the Eight Trigrams Array, but an Octagonal Strange Formation that looked sinister at first glance.
No one knew where Han Yu had learned this Array, and there was no way to investigate further.
And so, the powerful young master Han Yu, in the summer of the twentieth year of Yong Tai, was found to have died mysteriously at home. As for the cause of death... using our modern terms, a heart attack.
Since there were no external injuries or signs of poisoning on Mr. Han's body, and many could attest to the "sealed environment" at the time of his death, the case was closed rather swiftly. The official statement was that he died of an acute illness.
