Chapter 1216 - 1077: Interception
"Ancestor Rui, Li Taichang requests an audience!"
The night before the secret realm was set to open, Li Taichang, looking anxious and deeply uneasy, arrived in front of Li Zhirui’s seclusion cave mansion.
"Hmm?"
Li Zhirui, who had been wholeheartedly focused on cultivation, immediately sensed something amiss upon hearing the clan leader’s voice. He halted his cultivation technique and, after half a moment, opened the formation to let Li Taichang enter.
"What is it? Has something happened?"
In his haste, Li Taichang didn’t even bother to salute. With a panicked expression, he said, "Ancestor Rui, according to intel unintentionally gathered by the Dark Department, two Great Vehicle cultivators learned a few days ago that our family obtained a seventh-order secret realm. It’s highly likely they are already on their way here."
Li Zhirui frowned slightly and questioned, "Where did this information come from?"
"In an Immortal City in Cave Abyss State, two Great Vehicle cultivators from a loose cultivator background heard about the secret realm in a tavern. Among the other patrons there was an undercover agent developed by the Dark Department."
