The Third Old Ancestor craned her neck, looking unconvinced. "Isn't it perfectly normal that I didn't know?"
"M-My memories were sealed by Old Ancestor Di Xiu'er!"
The other Old Ancestors suddenly understood. "No wonder we didn't know the history of the Great Unification Era either. So the rot started with you!"

Everyone...
Everyone began descending.

No one knew how far they had descended when Di Yu'er and Phoenix Emperor
