Li Qingxian did not quite understand, so he sent a message to Song Yanxue, asking through the Night Guard what had happened to the Treasure Life Sect.
Song Yanxue replied helplessly, "The Enchanting City Fairy descended upon Treasure Life City and unleashed heavenly lightning, blasting the Treasure Life Hall, the Treasure Life God's main statue, and the Treasure Life Sect's leader into oblivion. Countless Evil Sects experts were killed or wounded.

They need to be built simultaneously, and we're short of hands. Could you second some people from the Ministry of Works? If the ministry doesn't have enough people, could you borrow some from Citrus Province or the Netherworld? I'd like to enlist upper-rank puppet cultivators to finish
