Yao Xi's words made Qin Sheng's gaze turn somewhat strange. He had not expected her to notice the existence of the Ruthless lineage again this time.
Was this a woman's intuition?
The Ruthless lineage had Ancient Saint Lin Youtian above them and Shaking Light, an unparalleled prodigy capable of contending with an Ancient Emperor's Son, below them. Even the Dragon-patterned Black Gold Cauldron did not reject them. Compared to them, the other lineages seemed utterly powerless.
If Shaking Light Holy Land was a towering tree, then the Ruthless lineage was the roots beneath the ground, seizing the nutrients that should have nourished the tree itself.
The Ruthless Successors' power would only grow with the passage of time. Shaking Light Holy Land looked like it was about to be finished.
Everyone knew that the Ruthless lineage was infamous, slaughtering people without restraint. If such a force controlled their holy land, what would their holy land become?
Yao Xi had no answer to that question. She truly could not think of any way to save Shaking Light Holy Land.
Thus, Yao Xi chose to pack up and run, fleeing Shaking Light Holy Land and abandoning her status as the Shaking Light Saintess. It could be considered treating wealth and glory like passing clouds.
When Yao Xi fled, she left behind one sentence: "Shaking Light Holy Land is like an old tree withering away. A mysterious sect has taken root upon it and been born from it. It will overturn the holy land!"
This was actually a warning to the Beidou Five Regions, but it was too obscure. No holy land investigated which mysterious sect had parasitized Shaking Light Holy Land because of it.
After that, Yao Xi secluded herself and cultivated. She did not appear before the world for thousands of years,
