What Xi Xian and the Ice Sea City Lord had said was something that had truly happened, but it had occurred a thousand years ago.∷ However, among the hundreds of books and scrolls Qin Fengming had read, there was no detailed record of what the two had described.
There was, however, some information in the ancient texts about the Ice Separation Palace once issuing a proclamation a thousand years ago to capture a peak Nascent Soul cultivator.
The record merely stated that the peak Nascent Soul cultivator seemed to have intended to assault a female cultivator from the Ice Separation Palace, and that this was why a proclamation had been issued across Ice Plains Island to capture him.
Now that he had heard the two speak this way, Qin Fengming could infer a thing or two even without knowing the details.
It was likely that this middle-aged cultivator named Xi Xian had once been on good terms with a female cultivator from the Ice Separation Palace, which was why he had been able to enter the palace. But for some unknown reason, after entering the Ice Separation Palace, this middle-aged cultivator had actually taken away several of its spirit beasts.
Several spirit beasts had been stolen from the sect's foundation by a peak Nascent Soul cultivator. Such a humiliating matter was naturally something the Ice Separation Palace did not wish to publicize. Thus, it had used the excuse that he intended to assault a female cultivator to issue a proclamation calling upon all of Ice Plains Island to capture him.
However, from what Xi Xian had said, it seemed that the Ice Separation Palace owed him an enormous debt of gratitude—one so great that he had rescued the palace from annihilation. Taking away several spirit beasts naturally amounted to nothing
