The Divine Ceremony is about to take place. Li Beihuo, having received some information from an unknown source, secretly informed Lu Ping that Xu Chi seemed to have been slain by someone, but it is unknown which strong individual made the move.
The Soul Lamp left by Xu Chi in the Dark River Sect has long been extinguished, symbolizing that he has fallen outside.
This result also made Tai Yuming and the other two dare not pay more attention to this matter, for fear of bringing disaster upon themselves and being targeted by that powerful figure.
They all speculate that perhaps Xu Chi coveted Lu Ping's Storage Ring and attempted to seize it, only to be counter-killed by Lu Ping.
If this is truly the case, then they have nothing much to say, as it was Xu Chi who sought his own destruction.
Xu Chi's fall was just a minor interlude, quickly quieting the storm; no one was willing to discuss it further.
Two days later, Shanyang City, the Divine Ceremony was held as scheduled.
