Zhao Layue paused, then asked, "What happened?"
Gu Qing and Yuan Qu looked equally bewildered.
De Se Se looked at them helplessly. "Cultivation is important, but could you spare a little attention for the major events in the cultivation world?"
Zhao Layue thought, According to the Blade Sage, the Snow Nation shouldn't invade the south within the next hundred years, and the Nether Department has been quiet in recent years. What major events could there be?

"Did he die?"
Zhao Layue rarely showed interest in anyone.
She had heard Su Ziye's name many years ago.
Rumors described the young master of the Profound Yin Sect's talent for cultivation in wildly exaggerated terms. Some even claimed that Luo Huainan was no match for him.

It was indeed something that left one sighing.
De Se Se assumed this was the
