The Tianyan Sect had remained inactive for fourteen years. Recently, its leader entered the capital, and she and her sister were assassinated by sorcerers.
Now that two Divine Martial Realm Xuanji Guards are involved here, Fengjing absolutely cannot send a third one, otherwise the safety of the capital will be in danger, and sending other fourth or fifth-rank guards would be useless.
