Within the abode.
Sweeping aside the gray mist, Xu Xuan advanced alone, guided by Constant Light and bathed in starlight that filled the sky.
A disturbance suddenly arose in the Great Void. First, dark-red yin fire blanketed the surroundings, followed by Golden Scale Sword Qi, which cut down five-colored Poison Light. Its might surged so powerfully that he could sense it even without Tiantuo's secret art.
"They've started fighting?"
Xu Xuan's gaze darkened. For him, this could just barely be considered good news. The greater the chaos, the more opportunities he would have to muddy the waters.
"I wonder whether the True Lord left any means behind."
The discovery of Yaokong's residence was probably inevitable. Judging by what he had seen in the Scarlet Radiance Abode, these two spirit swords concealed secrets, likely connected to True Lord Constant Light's whereabouts and whether he was alive or dead.
Naturally, Xu Xuan wanted no part in such matters. But since these were things left behind by his ancestral lineage, he had no choice but to concern himself with them. Unless driven to the very last resort, he still wanted to preserve the two spirit swords. Even if he could not keep them himself, he must not let someone else take them away.
"The True Lord ought to have left some means behind. Otherwise, what could he expect a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like me to do?"
Once the two spirit swords awakened, the Purple Mansion cultivators would certainly be unable to sit still. Bing Fire excelled at Artifact Refining, and these two spirit swords had been forged at the True Lord's behest. That alone guaranteed they were extraordinary.
For beings at the Golden Core level, every movement already directed the course of heaven and earth.
