Xue Fanxin suppressed her doubts and anxiety and continued to ask, “First Elder, the Flowing Cloud Sect has recruited so many extremely talented disciples, but I’ve never heard of any geniuses from the Flowing Cloud Sect. What’s going on?”
“This is what I wanted to tell you. Actually, it’s most likely my guess. I’m not too sure about the exact situation. The Flowing Cloud Sect never searches for those talented disciples in the aristocratic families, but they specially go to some remote places to recruit them. The disciples of the Heavenly Spirit Sect and the Flying Dragon Sect are often descendants or relatives of some aristocratic families, but the Flowing Cloud Sect prefers to recruit people from small places, especially those without any status or background. Even if such people die, no one will pursue them.”
Indeed, if people from a small place died, so be it. No one would pursue their deaths to the end.
However, aristocratic families were different. If the genius of the family died, they would definitely pursue the matter to the end.
“First Elder, what happened to the genius disciples recruited by the Flowing Cloud Sect?” Xue Fanxin could already guess the outcome of these people.
With so many geniuses, it was impossible for them to not cause any commotion with their disappearances, unless they were all dead or being controlled.
“I don’t know what has happened to these geniuses. I only know that none of them could make a name for themselves in the Flowing Cloud Sect. In the end, they all disappeared silently. Apart from Xue Feichen, the others didn’t even have a chance to stand out. After so many geniuses entered the Flowing Cloud Sect, it’s impossible for them to not make a sound. I suspect that someone in the Flowing Cloud Sect is stripping these geniuses of everything. As for how, I don’t know.
“Your father… might have been one of them.”
Actually, it was not only him. Some old fellows in the sect had long suspected the Flowing Cloud Sect of nefarious acts. However, these things had nothing to do with them, so they could not be bothered.
The Flowing Cloud Sect was meticulous and never provoked the aristocratic families and the royal family. They only harmed the interests of some small figures, so everyone turned a blind eye and let the Flowing Cloud Sect do their thing.
“The Flowing Cloud Sect, huh?” Xue Fanxin had obtained so much information from the First Elder and had come up with a solution. If she had not noticed the problem, she would have lived in vain.
Her father was only the son of a small general in the Nanling Empire. To the Ye Dynasty and the three great sects of the Tongxuan Continent, the General’s Estate of the Nanling Empire was really too small and insignificant. It was as small as an ant. Even if he died, no one from above would pursue the matter
With her father’s talent, if the Flowing Cloud Sect was really doing something to strip geniuses of their talent, her father would definitely not have been spared.
It seemed like she had to go to the Flowing Cloud Sect.
“Little girl, are you okay?” The First Elder could tell that Xue Fanxin was very angry now. Apart from hatred, there was also killing intent in her eyes.
If the Flowing Cloud Sect really did something they shouldn’t have done it to Xue Feichen, their good days would soon be over.
Just Xue Fanxin alone could make the Flowing Cloud Sect stumble, let alone the Ninth Lord.
The Flowing Cloud Sect was also unlucky. Of all people, they had to provoke the Ninth Lord’s father-in-law.
“First Elder, I’m leaving tomorrow. Thank you for telling me so much today. There are some pills, two five-colored spirit crystals, and a Rank Five crystal core here. Take it as a thank you gift from me.” Xue Fanxin placed the things in front of the First Elder and left.
“Little girl…” The First Elder still wanted to say something, but when he saw Xue Fanxin’s departing figure, he ultimately said nothing. However, he was not worried.
The Flowing Cloud Sect was the one in danger.
“This girl is really generous! Five-colored spirit crystal, a Rank Five crystal core. Haha… Good stuff.”
