Before long, Yun Che returned to the Heavenly Domain. As soon as he stepped through the Star-Catching Ancient Sect's gates, a disciple responsible for the sect's communications hurried up to him.
"Sect Master, you're finally back! The Deputy Sect Master and several elders are waiting for you in the Discussion Hall. They seem to have something important to discuss." The disciple looked respectful, with a barely perceptible trace of gravity in his voice.
Yun Che nodded. Anything that had the Deputy Sect Master and the elders waiting together was probably no small matter.
Sure enough, the atmosphere inside the Discussion Hall was rather oppressive. Deputy Sect Master Yang Tao sat in the main seat, his brows slightly furrowed. Yuezheng Xiangling, Ye Qingshuang, and the other elders also wore solemn expressions.
When Yun Che entered, everyone's gaze fell on him at once, delight appearing in their eyes. Now that he was back, this matter probably would not be too difficult to resolve.
Yun Che walked forward and smiled. "What's wrong? Why all the long faces? Given the Star-Catching Ancient Sect's current standing, there shouldn't be much that could trouble us, should there?"
Yang Tao rose first, his tone somewhat grave. "Sect Master, three days ago, a disturbance suddenly occurred at the Heavenly Domain's border. According to the disciples stationed there, an unidentified force forcibly breached the spatial barrier. Their auras were far stronger than those of ordinary Spirit God Realm cultivators. We suspect this may be a sign of an impending invasion from beyond the domain."
Yuezheng Xiangling added, "And following this incident, the rule that prohibited Divine Realm experts from appearing in the Heavenly Domain disappeared as well. Those old fossils who had remained in the Pseudo-God realm have begun breaking through one after another."
Yun Che paused. No wonder
