Mr. Lu spoke thus, his eyes somewhat unfocused, and said, "In fact, the old house master also bears considerable responsibility for this matter."

The previous lord of the house, nearing loss of control, forcefully attempted Creation, ultimately failing and causing chaos in Prefecture City.

Lin Yan glanced and spoke, "The old house master was a smart man; he must have foreseen today."

"Leaving behind his personal Old God’s Magical Objects was to leave a glimmer of hope for future generations when disaster erupted in the Forbidden Land, and that could also be considered his selfishness."

"But after being confident about sealing the Forbidden Land, he commanded the removal of Old God’s Magical Objects, not leaving them for the future generations... It was to prevent the latter from acquiring these magic artifacts and instead causing a major disaster."
