Chapter 355: Western Crossing
The next day at the hour of chen, as the sky brightened, the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion's great hall was already filled with shadowy figures.
Chen Qing, wearing black robes, entered the hall.
Starlight flowed across the domed ceiling, illuminating the circular seating arrangement below. The atmosphere appeared even more solemn than usual.
His gaze swept across to see that elders from various lineages, powerful stewards, and top True Disciples had mostly already arrived, conversing in low voices.
Soon, he spotted Ruan Lingxiu.
She stood alone at the edge of the Jade Palace Lineage's area, her brows tightly furrowed.
"Senior Brother Chen."
Qu He quickly approached. Following Chen Qing's gaze and also seeing Ruan Lingxiu, he transmitted, "Junior Sister Ruan... Alas, it's said that Lineage Master Su fell into this ambush because the initial trigger was receiving a distress message she sent. He fell into the trap while rushing to rescue her. She feels extremely guilty."
Chen Qing nodded. Su Muyun had been ambushed and severely injured by the demonic path because of her. This matter had already been clearly investigated by the Jade Palace Lineage itself.
