Looking at the constantly appearing red dots, Tian Hualing's face became unsightly. Obviously, the attackers were at least a Divine Emperor level. Why would they suddenly attack the Heavenhold Realm?
While the sealing ability of the Heavenhold Realm could provide good protection, it naturally came with a downside—everyone inside the realm couldn't contact the outside world. Hence, Tian Hualing had no idea what was happening outside right now.
She took a deep breath and touched the Heavenhold Pearl. Immediately, several layers of protective barriers appeared around the Heavenhold Realm, preventing the attackers from going further.
Seeing the red dots disappear, Tian Hualing wasn't at ease. She knew it was a temporary relief and had to do something.
Her figure flashed and reappeared inside the Sacred Hall.
Tian Xiaodie and Tian Xiaowu looked at Tian Hualing worriedly, waiting for her instruction.
At this moment, Yue Qi appeared in the hall and said. "From the impact, there should be at least ten peak Divine Emperors outside. Do you have any idea?"
Tian Hualing shook her head. "To tell Senior the truth, I have no clue about it. Except for the conflict with the Dark Sea Palace, I cannot think of anything."
Yue Qi frowned, and his expression changed slightly as he thought of something.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"How did they know?" He muttered to himself in doubt.
"Senior?" Tian Hualing asked as she captured the change in Yue Qi's expression.
Yue Qi didn't explain directly. He asked. "How long can the seal last?"
Tian Hualing replied solemnly. "If there's no God Emperor coming, it should be able to last for half a year at most."
Yue Qi frowned deeply. "Then we got a serious problem here. There's no guarantee that a God Emperor won't appear."
"Do you know the reason behind this, Senior? Why would they want to attack us?" Tian Hualing asked.
Yue Qi went silent for a while and said. "They came here for someone. I cannot tell you in detail… Is there a way to send a message out?"
Tian Hualing thought for a moment and said. "Unless we open the seal, there's no other way."
"This is troublesome." Yue Qi frowned. He thought for a moment and said. "Let me try."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes and made a complicated hand seal. A moment later, he opened his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, I can contact my people through this method. We will wait for the news."
"Thank you, Senior." Tian Hualing was relieved a bit upon hearing this.

At this moment, ten people were gathered in the starry sky outside the Heavenhold Realm and looked at the layers of barrier around the realm annoyingly. These people were genuine peak Divine Emperors from various factions. They came here after getting the news about Yun Lintian.
"I have heard about the Heavenhold Realm's unique ability before. It's surely special, as they said." A middle-aged man in a green robe said. He was a Divine Emperor of the Star God Realm, Xing Juming.
"Indeed. Who would believe we couldn't break the seal with our combined strength? And now this troublesome barrier." A burly man said with a chuckle. He hailed from the Northern Divine Region's Martial God Realm, and his name was Wu Chang.
"What should we do now? Continue?" A Divine Emperor of the Holy Spirit God Realm, Ling Weimin, asked.
The other Divine Emperors glanced at each other and remained silent. While they wanted to break the barrier, they also needed to guard against each other. Once the seal broke, the real competition would begin. No one wanted to commit a mistake in front of such an opportunity.
"What about you, Brother Jian? Any idea?" Xing Juming glanced at a black-robed man with a long sword in his hand.
The black-robed man, Jian Ling, glanced at Xing Juming and said nothing. He was the first to discover Yun Lintian's trace and came here under his master, Qin Juehai's order. Unexpectedly, someone maliciously spread the news, leading everything to this situation.
If he failed the task, he would have no face to go back. Hence, he was waiting for an opportunity.
Xing Juming clicked his tongue. "Tsk. Are we going to stare like this?"
"Maybe we should wait for others to come. I believe they will be here soon." Ling Weimin said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe news had been spreading for many days, but it would take a period of time for others to arrive. These people came here first because they were relatively close and had a secret channel to the Eastern Divine Region.
Everyone glanced at each other and tacitly came to an agreement.
"Haha. So many guests came to my Eastern Divine Region. As a host, I am actually late. Please forgive me."
A burst of laughter suddenly echoed, and when everyone looked in the sound's direction, a middle-aged man clad in a violet robe appeared in their sight. With a glance, they immediately recognized this person. He was the First Elder of the Violet Thunder God Realm, Zi Yunlei.
"Why are you being polite, Brother Zi? It should be us who said this. After all, we came here without giving a prior notice." Xing Juming said with a smile.
Zi Yunlei halted his track and chuckled. "It's been a long time, everyone. All of you are still vigorous as usual."
"Haha. The last time we met has to trace back to three thousand years ago, right?" Wu Chang laughed.
"Indeed. How about we have a good drink while waiting?" Ling Weimin suggested.
"Have you brought the Holy Spirit Immortal Wine with you? I haven't had enough last time." Wu Chang asked.
Ling Weimin waved his hand, and two jars of fragrant wine appeared before him. "Come."
"Good!" Wu Chang was delighted and took his own cup out.
Just as everyone was about to distribute the wine, a bone-freezing cold aura gradually spread and enveloped the entire space, making them frown.
At this moment, a peerless beauty in a white robe appeared in the depths of the starry sky. Her icy eyes fixated on everyone as she spoke coldly. "Leave."
A simple word from her caused a chill to run down everyone's spine. If they didn't know her before, they would have thought they were now facing a God Emperor.
Zi Yunlei looked at the woman and said with a frown. "The Eastern Divine Region is not your Rain God Realm's home. You don't have the right to chase anyone away, Yu Zhilan."
