It was the same kind of invisible triple-sigil she’d once placed on Lu Xianyu in her previous life.
She pondered for a while, but didn’t remove the sigil—she just sent him back.
Later, they secretly returned to the Sigil Sect and checked Nine Li’s trusted immortal attendant in his courtyard, only to find the same sigil inside him too.
Turns out, this whole Divine Guard siege on the Sigil Sect was caused by those two sigils.
"I think this is all a setup," Nine Li said. "The Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain probably wasn’t stolen at all—they just wanted an excuse to go after our Sigil Sect."
"It’s not that simple," Sean Shaw said.
"Then what is it?" Everyone stared at him.
"The Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain," Sean said. "Why that relic, specifically? Why not something else?"
Lily Bai suddenly understood. "They're targeting you!"
Sean nodded. "They saw me use the Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain and the Tenfold Annihilation Arrow to break the Dragon-Coiling Heavenly Gang Array. So now, in front of my brother, they’re saying I stole the chain just to free Lu Xianyu’s mother."
"I knew it! So it was the Primordial Dragon Lord and the Azure Dragon Lord leading their troops to the Sigil Sect together," Futi exclaimed, suddenly enlightened. "What a massive show of force!"
"Your Majesty, things had just started to calm down, and now they're pulling this stunt. It's obvious they're trying to force you into another showdown with Drake Abyss!" Baxa said to Sean.
Sean stayed silent.
Just then, Lu Xuanyang called Immortal Futi, saying he’d arrived too.
Lily Bai secretly let him into the Sigil Sect.
"Why are you here?" Lily Bai asked.
"Came to check out the drama!" Lu Xuanyang said. "The First Prince told Radiant Palace that Fifth Highness stole the Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain, so they're on guard in case Fifth Highness tries to bust out Senior Bai."
"Sean didn’t steal the Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain," Lily Bai said. "They're framing him!"
Lu Xuanyang looked thoughtful, then messaged Lily Bai and Sean: "Just now, outside, Azure Dragon Lord met me and said he still hasn’t found a way into the Divine Queen’s private vault. I thought it was weird—how did you guys get the Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain? Turns out it wasn’t you at all?"
"Honestly... I don’t think the Thunder-Heaven Void-Breaking Chain was ever stolen," Lily Bai messaged back.
Lu Xuanyang nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "So, what’s your plan?"
Lily Bai tried a divination, but for some reason, she couldn’t get anything.
It was just a blur of chaos.
For a Rune Master, that usually means the situation is deeply tied to you personally.
"What do we do?" Futi also looked at her.
Since it concerned the Sigil Sect, even he couldn’t figure it out.
Lily Bai narrowed her eyes. "Master, here’s what we’ll do..."
......
Outside the Sigil Sect, the Azure Dragon Lord and Primordial Dragon Lord were chatting.
