Chapter 394: Which Ancient Royal Clan?
"The Chaotic Star Domain?"
Inside the great hall, most people wore confused expressions.
After all, the Heavenly Evolution Sect was no longer what it once had been.
The Heavenly Island Ancient Domain was simply too vast, and over the years, most of the sect's ancient records had been lost.
As a result, the name "Chaotic Star Domain" had become completely unfamiliar to them.
Only Cui Yin's expression changed slightly, as though he had suddenly remembered something.
Curiously, he asked, "Senior... are you referring to the inheritance of the Desolate Dao?"
"The Desolate Dao?"
Li Xun raised an eyebrow.
He actually knew very little about the matter.
At the moment, Qin Xueyi appeared to be trapped somewhere under some kind of seal. The messages she had managed to send him were extremely limited, mentioning only the words 'Chaotic Star Domain.'
Earlier, he had secretly asked Huang Xi about it.
Unfortunately, while Huang Xi had indeed heard of the Chaotic Star Domain, it remained an extremely mysterious place even to her.
Although it was considered a region, it did not exist in any fixed location.
In other words, the Chaotic Star Domain was essentially a star domain drifting through the endless cosmos.
It could disappear at any moment and appear again just as suddenly.
Where it appeared was entirely random.
Simply finding the Chaotic Star Domain already required extraordinary luck.
As for entering it or obtaining one of the inheritances hidden within...
That depended entirely upon one's own fortune.
Throughout history, countless powerful cultivators had lost their lives inside the Chaotic Star Domain.
According to Huang Xi, even a Quasi-Emperor had once perished there.
That piece of information was astonishing.
It meant that even someone as powerful as a Quasi-Emperor could not guarantee their safety after entering the Chaotic Star Domain.
At the same time, it revealed another fact:
The inheritance of the Desolate Dao hidden within was so valuable that even Quasi-Emperors coveted it.
"So," Li Xun said with a smile, "it seems you know where the Chaotic Star Domain is."
"Well..."
An awkward smile appeared on Cui Yin's face.
He shook his head helplessly.
"To be honest, Senior, I don't actually know its location."
"The only reason I've heard of it is because of a rather minor incident."
"Oh?"
Li Xun raised an eyebrow.
"What incident?"
"About half a year ago, a young man offended one of the Ancient Royal Clans and was hunted by countless experts."
"In the end, that young man reportedly fled into the Chaotic Star Domain."
"However, a great expert declared at the time that the Chaotic Star Domain had not yet fully opened, making it impossible for outsiders to enter."
"Because of that, the experts of the Ancient Royal Clan have remained stationed outside the Chaotic Star Domain ever since, waiting for him to emerge."
"As for how that young man managed to get inside… I'm afraid I have no idea."
Cui Yin sighed softly.
"If the Heavenly Evolution Sect were still at its peak, we would have participated no matter what."
"But now… that is no longer possible."
The Heavenly Evolution Sect had declined too severely.
Setting aside whether they could even make it there...
Even if they could, they lacked the courage to involve themselves.
One careless move would invite disaster upon the entire sect.
Those Ancient Royal Clans were not opponents anyone could afford to provoke.
If things truly escalated, several Saints might emerge from their sealed lands at any moment.
A single finger from one of them would be enough to wipe out everyone in the Heavenly Evolution Sect.
'I never expected Qin Xueyi to cause so much trouble so soon after arriving in the Heavenly Island Ancient Domain.'
Li Xun thought to himself.
In his opinion, the young person who had fled into the Chaotic Star Domain was almost certainly Qin Xueyi.
She was the only one capable of provoking the pursuit of an Ancient Royal Clan.
Most likely, she had seized some opportunity that originally belonged to them.
After all, possessing memories from her previous life, Qin Xueyi had intercepted others' fortunes more than once.
As the saying goes:
"If you walk by the river often enough, sooner or later your shoes will get wet."
Perhaps this time, she had simply been caught in the act.
Once that happened, being hunted was only the natural consequence.
Li Xun asked calmly, "Which Ancient Royal Clan was it?"
In the Heavenly Island Ancient Domain, Ancient Royal Clans was a collective term encompassing countless ancient races.
Strictly speaking, Huang Xi's own Divine Phoenix Clan was also one of these Ancient Royal Clans.
The only difference was that, compared to the other clans, the Divine Phoenix Clan's population was far smaller.
"I'm afraid that's beyond someone like me to know," Cui Yin shook his head helplessly.
The beings from the unsealed Ancient Royal Clans could casually send out individuals with Divine Palace Realm cultivation.
How could a tiny sect like the Heavenly Evolution Sect dare investigate their affairs?
Suddenly, Cui Yin's eyes lit up, as though he had remembered something.
"Although I don't know which Ancient Royal Clan it was," he continued, "I believe I've heard the name of that young man."
"I think... his name was Ye Han."
"Hmm?"
Li Xun's expression shifted slightly.
Even the jade slip in his hand trembled faintly.
He had assumed the young person being pursued into the Chaotic Star Domain was Qin Xueyi.
Never had he expected it to be Ye Han instead.
For a moment, he was completely bewildered.
When did Ye Han come to the Heavenly Island Ancient Domain?
Previously, Li Xun had wondered where Ye Han had gone after leaving the Profound Sun Holy Land.
Judging from Ye Han's "protagonist's luck," it was impossible for him to remain unknown on the Desolate Ancient Continent.
After all, unlike Jiang Taixuan, Ye Han walked a completely different path.
Yet that had indeed been the case.
While Xiao Fan's fame had risen rapidly, Ye Han had seemingly vanished without a trace.
There hadn't been the slightest news of him anywhere on the Desolate Ancient Continent.
And now, without making a sound, Ye Han had somehow appeared in the Heavenly Island Ancient Domain, provoked an Ancient Royal Clan into hunting him down, and ultimately fled into the Chaotic Star Domain.
Even Li Xun couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
As expected of a xianxia protagonist.
Wherever there were great opportunities, they would somehow stumble upon them.
If nothing unexpected happened, once the Chaotic Star Domain fully opened, Ye Han would undoubtedly obtain numerous treasures.
And by the time he reappeared, those Ancient Royal Clan experts who had been trying to kill him would likely end up delivering themselves to their own deaths.
"This is becoming rather interesting."
Li Xun smiled faintly.
A single Domain had already gathered two protagonists.
Although Qin Xueyi had not revealed her exact location, Li Xun was almost certain that she had entered the Chaotic Star Domain even earlier than Ye Han.
After all, her attainments in formation arts were no joke.
The only mystery was exactly where she had become trapped.
