"I've always had a question, seems you know the answer."
"What is it?"
"The Emperor's Sword Ascension, has it always ascended to Biyuan Heaven and never changed?"
"... Good question." Li Hongzhao chuckled softly, "Seems you know quite a bit."
Chu Zhiyuan sipped his tea and asked leisurely, "Has there really been a change?"
He slowly deduced this from some fragments he obtained earlier; there was once an Emperor's Sword ascending to Outer Heaven, but it hasn't appeared since.
There must be changes; it could be a change caused by the world, or other factors.
The disciples of the Four Great Sects, such as those from Profound Yin Palace, relied on sect power to ascend directly to Outer Heaven.
But the Emperor's Sword, it seems, no longer reaches Outer Heaven and hasn't appeared for a long time.
This indicates that there once was an Emperor's Sword ascending.
