A Bewildering Mystery!
Something major must have happened with Qi Province's World Sealing Formation. Otherwise, the Yunling Li Family absolutely would not have taken such a huge risk and sealed off Qi Province directly.
Sealing off a provincial border brought great disadvantages.
Most obviously... sealing the border would leave everyone within the province panicking, thinking that something major had happened. And if a group of martial artists with nothing better to do decided to stir up trouble, things within the province would only grow increasingly chaotic.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, no sect or lineage would seal off a provincial border.
Yet Li Xie had repeatedly guaranteed that Qi Province would return to peace within three to five days.
Lin Bai was not underestimating the Yunling Li Family's methods. But since matters had already reached the point where they had no choice but to seal the province, resolving this affair would inevitably be extremely troublesome. It was absolutely impossible for it to end within three to five days.
Jiang Xuansu had always been highly attentive to the sealing of Qi Province. After hearing Li Xie's words, she grew even more curious. What exactly had happened in Qi Province?
Several times, Jiang Xuansu wanted to ask, but each time Lin Bai glared at her, forcing the words back down her throat.
After the purple-robed old man escorted the members of the Tianheng Sect back to their quarters, he returned once more. Li Xie then arranged for him to take Lin Bai and Jiang Xuansu away to rest and ensure they were well attended. He also gave them a token, allowing them to move freely around South Yi City over the next few days to pass the time.
Lin Bai thanked him repeatedly before following the purple-robed old man away with Jiang Xuansu.
