Night had fallen.
In Qingmu City, at the entrance to the Secret Realm.
Here, the bustling noise of the daytime had ceased, leaving only two Cultivators originally tasked with guarding this place.
"Brother, do you think this Secret Realm will suddenly open again?"
One Cultivator stood to the left of the azure light screen, curiously waving his hand through it a few times before turning to his companion to ask.
"How would I know? We're just lucky we weren't punished, brother. Let's just obediently follow Lord Nan and Mr. Lan's orders and keep watch here."
The other Cultivator stood with his eyes closed, seemingly resting.
During the day.
The City Lord of the city and Lan Junyan, the lead scholar of Qingmu Academy, had both arrived at this place.
On Qingyun's instruction, they had calmed the Cultivators who hurried here, persuaded them to return, and assured that there would be no issues with Qingmu Secret Realm.
It would open as usual.
