"I had not anticipated my premonition becoming a reality. This act was deliberate," Gu Chaoyan spoke earnestly. "Yet, there is a puzzling aspect.

If that's the case, it's possible that numerous disciples from various sects suffered a similar fate in Xuhai City."

The Supreme Sect had already taken this scenario into account.
