Yuan Tianming took a deep breath. His gaze was heavy as he looked at her and said slowly,
"One month ago, the Dao Sect was attacked... and Yuhang and Xiaojin were both captured..."
"What?!"
Qing Yueqiu's pupils contracted violently. She froze in place as if struck by lightning.
Her lips trembled, and the words were practically forced from her throat.
"Grand Ancestor... what... what did you say?"
Yuan Tianming shook his head and said softly,
"The one who took them was Ji Shenyun... The seal on the Kunlun Secret Realm has been broken, and the Asura Empress has been released.
"Perhaps she went to the Dao Sect looking for you. When she couldn't find you, she took Yuhang instead..."
Qing Yueqiu's face turned deathly pale in an instant. The light in her eyes wavered violently, as if her entire world was collapsing.
The joy of her recent breakthrough to the Void Refining realm vanished completely, leaving Qing Yueqiu feeling as though she had been plunged into chaos.
