"After the battle between the Azure Heaven Sword Domain and the Three Domains three months ago, the Upper Sect ruled that the Heavenly Dao Oath sworn by the Netherdark Sacred Domain, Yellow Springs Sacred Domain, and Star Sword Domain under the Azure Heaven Sword Domain's leadership was invalid. All constraints between the Four Domains are lifted as of today."
Yu Ningsui's expression changed sharply.
"What gives the Upper Sect the right to dissolve a Heavenly Dao Oath? How would you even do it? Does your word alone make it so?"
"By the authority vested in the Upper Sect to administer the Heavenly Dao Law of the Four Domains." Guan Heng looked at her. "All Four Domains swore Heavenly Dao Oaths of allegiance to the Upper Sect. The Upper Sect therefore administers the Heavenly Dao Law under its authority and has the right to rule on oaths detrimental to that allegiance. The Netherdark Sacred Domain's hundred-year pact with its Supreme Sacred Lord, the Yellow Springs Sacred Domain's hundred-year pact, and the Star Sword Domain's hundred-year pact are all dissolved. The Four Domains return to their old agreements. No new rules will be established."
Feng Qianjin remained seated. The corner of her mouth twitched, but she said nothing.
Yu Ningsui stood where she was, her fingers clenched tight.
With the oath dissolved, Netherdark Ancestor's hundred-year pact was gone. Nothing restrained the Netherdark Sacred Domain now. It could return at any moment.
The Azure Heaven Sword Domain and the Myriad Races had no one in the Tower-Ascending Realm. If Netherdark Sacred Domain came seeking revenge with all its might, no one could stop it. Who knew when help would come if they reported it to the Upper Sect? The daylilies might have gone cold before anyone arrived to save them!
