The rain continued falling.
Neither Tian Yongheng nor Zhu Dong spoke for several moments.
The atmosphere between them became strangely quiet, with only the sound of rain striking mountains and rivers echoing throughout heaven and earth.
Just then, Zhu Dong suddenly smiled.
It was a somewhat mysterious smile, the kind that made people instinctively want to punch him.
"Tian Yongheng, do you know what truly caused all of this?"
His tone became deliberately profound.
"What changed the structure of the Heavenly Karmic Cycles, and what caused the Lower Realm to become what it is today?"
Tian Yongheng stared at him expressionlessly.
For a moment, both of them just stared at each other.
"..."
"..."
After a long moment, he finally spoke.
"If you're going to tell me, then tell me."
His voice remained calm, "If not, then stop acting mysterious."
Zhu Dong's smile immediately froze at these words, the atmosphere becoming somewhat awkward.
After a brief silence, he coughed lightly.
