The Jade Scroll that Minor Metal had given him actually contained only a single sentence:
[The Zouyu Descendants in the Stain Sect joined the sect five thousand years ago.]
It was a sentence that seemed to come out of nowhere, but it instantly made Lü Yang recall a long-forgotten conversation he'd once had with a Zouyu Descendant.
What had the man said back then?
'The Zouyu Descendants, predecessors to the Celestial Wu, were forced to flee their homeland because the last millennial calamity was fated for the East. Their [Fruit of Rampart Earth] and their Fruit were lost together...'
The more Lü Yang thought about it, the more alarmed he became.
At some unknown point, dark clouds had begun to gather overhead, casting a deep shadow below, as if someone was looking down upon the world from the vault of heaven.
