Li Fan had encountered a guardian of the Divine Teachings nearby during yesterday's moon worship. It was likely that someone from the Divine Teachings was also helping the Xun Country's leader obscure the heavenly secrets, but they probably couldn't hide much longer. According to Li Fan's estimate, the leader of Xun Country must have been suppressing his own strength for quite some time, just waiting for an opportunity to break through.
Now, with the Immortal Palace and the forces of Xuanmen assembling to crusade against the Divine Teachings and their attention on Kun Nation, the timing couldn't be better. Otherwise, why choose this moment to meticulously incite internal strife and slaughter between the two palaces, drawing the attention of others? And why leave a lamb's offspring in the palace as a decoy to conceal one's whereabouts?
Therefore, Sun Zhonghu was just a little short of fully transforming and manifesting as the Taishu Dao Ancestor, but there wasn't much missing.
