From the time Zhouyang entered the Purple Star Pavilion until he swept away the treasures from the shop and left, the whole event lasted no more than one or two hours.
Due to the Purple Star Pavilion already being closed for business and activating the protective array beforehand, no one noticed that the situation inside had changed dramatically.
It wasn't until Zhouyang fled with the treasures and the cultivators he had knocked out reported the incident that the news began to spread.
By then, Zhouyang had already left the Immortal City, and no one knew where he went. Even though the Seven Glows Sect behind the Seven-Colored Immortal City investigated his origins, they couldn't locate his whereabouts. Ultimately, the matter remained unsettled amidst the bickering between the Seven Glows Sect and the Purple Star Sect.
On the other side, after leaving the Seven-Colored Immortal City, Zhouyang immediately headed south straight towards the "Cloud Mist Marsh".
