Among the people who joined Celestial Star Abyss, there were both outsiders and people from the Lingmu Sect. Many arrived late simply because they were too far away to receive the news in time.

But when the Lingmu Sect protected the heavily damaged Dragon Scale Tree, it was beyond anyone's interference—since Yi Jue and Tiegu had not determined a winner, they were not allowed to touch the Lingmu left by Elder Tiegu.
