Rushed past the bend.
The disciples of the Nine Heavenly Palaces were all brimming with excitement. As they unleashed a vast wave of attacks behind them, they turned their gazes and Divine Sense toward the front.
Every face was covered with excitement and anticipation, along with deep wariness.
However... in the next second, the excitement and anticipation vanished from their faces completely.
"How could this be?!"
"This..."
"Di Qing, you deceived us?!"
"Where is the seal you mentioned?!"
"Damn it! You've made fools of us—hurry up and tell us the truth!"
The scene before them was completely different from what they had imagined. After a brief moment of bewilderment, their excitement turned to fury, and they vented it all on Di Qing.
This did not match what he had said! There was only one possibility: Di Qing had concealed the clues he learned through Soul Searching.
"How could this happen?!"
Di Qing was stunned as well, then his face paled. "Every word I said was true! Don't tell me you still don't understand me! If you didn't, why would you have chosen me to perform the Soul Searching?"
He still wanted to explain.

Instead, he transmitted through Divine Sense, "I, Di Qing, swear an oath here: the information I just told you, which I obtained by performing Soul Searching on Fifth Zhongmou, contains not the slightest falsehood."
"If that is untrue, may the thunder of world-destruction descend from the heavens, causing my true body and avatars to die and vanish, my True Spirit to be obliterated, and my soul to scatter!"
