Square Inch Ancestral Home.
Inside the Council Great Hall of Lixin Sword House.
"Reporting to the sect leader, an enemy force has invaded Cangyu Continent!"
"Reporting to the sect leader, the forces of the Four Seas have sent requests for aid!"
"Reporting to the sect leader, news has arrived from Revere Heaven Pavilion. Thus far, the Fate Demon Lineage army has split into multiple routes and stormed into twenty-nine continent realms. Only four continent realms have yet to show any trace of the enemy."
"Reporting to the sect leader..."
Message after message drifted into the great hall like snowflakes, reported to Lu Ye, the sect leader.
He sat there, his expression as composed as ever.
Yet his tightly furrowed brow had not relaxed for a very long time.
"How could the Fate Demon Lineage be so terrifying? It is only one clan, yet it possesses the foundation to sweep across the world. It is simply... unimaginable..."
Lu Ye spoke while handling the unceasing stream of reports.
"Back in the early Primordial Age, the Fate Demon Lineage was already the undisputed overlord of the River of Destiny."
Not far away, Heavenly Venerable Yi casually said, "Not only are they numerous and powerful, but they also possess the most ancient combat heritage. Compared with the Heavenly Demon Lineage, this clan is even more troublesome, and its killing heart is heavier."
Then he raised his eyes to Lu Ye and smiled. "Feeling the pressure?"
Lu Ye nodded candidly and sighed. "A single war has dragged countless billions of living beings into it, plunging them into deep water and scorching fire. In the end, it still leaves a bitter taste in one's heart."
Heavenly Venerable Yi said gently, "You have already done well enough. Even if your master returned, he would not reproach you."
