Jiang Xingyue nodded. "The Azure Void Region is something like a second home to me. Naturally, I wouldn't let anyone destroy it."
A faint sigh escaped her.
"The world has changed too much. There are very few things left in this era that still feel familiar to me."
Li Yun's heart stirred. He understood what she meant better than almost anyone could. Jiang Xingyue did not truly belong to this era, and neither did he. Li Yun had been reborn and had begun cultivating again in a completely different age. Although this new era offered opportunities he had never had before, much of the world still felt unfamiliar to him.
Jiang Xingyue's gaze suddenly shifted to the Profound Origin Sword in his hand.
"By now, you've probably started to guess where that sword came from."
Li Yun looked down, and Jiang Xingyue went on.
"The Profound Origin Sword once belonged to the Heavenpiercing Sword Emperor."
Li Yun's expression turned serious.
