Aksai's attempt to sow discord between Rumaal and Kanis had failed spectacularly.
He had hoped that the revelation about the Runiye Dominion's core inheritances would create a conflict of interest between the two factions.
Even if they didn't turn against each other outright, a disagreement over the distribution of spoils might have bought him some time.
Unfortunately, Kanis had resolved the matter with a simple Dao Oath.
As the dynamic Array Eye of the sword formation, Kanis possessed a degree of control over the barrier that nobody else did. He could temporarily modify certain restrictions within the formation, allowing himself to access the contents of Aksai's storage ring without removing the spatial lock.
And with the Dao Oath in place, Rumaal had no reason to object.
