Following the envoy from the Onyx Empire and his senior returning to the territory of the Onyx Empire, the surrounding empires soon realized that something had happened to their people. Not inside the Star Shattering Sect like they had expected, but instead on their way back from the Star Shattering Sect.
Given the information from the tracking formation inside the interspatial rings that their people had been using, it was obvious that they had been attacked shortly after they had left the Star Shattering Sect and had their things taken away.
Although they had no idea if any of their people had managed to survive, the different empires felt that this was highly unlikely considering that the people behind the attack seemed to be the Onyx Empire… And as if to solidify this reasoning, they also learnt that one of the Peak Domain Lord Realm Experts from the Onyx Empire had left his original position at the border between the Onyx Empire and the Sky Empire during this period of time.
