Over the next three days, the Lingxiao Sect symbolically sent people to investigate, then informed the Variant Sect that they had found no clues.
When the Great Elder learned of this, he was furious. But with no evidence proving that the Lingxiao Sect was responsible, he could only leave angrily with the disciples.
After the Great Elder left, the Sect Master breathed a sigh of relief. "We finally got rid of them. But this is only temporary. The Variant Sect will definitely look for a chance to retaliate against us."
"That's right. We need to strengthen the sect's defenses while we have time. As long as we find their lair, we can settle this once and for all."
The Sect Master nodded. "I've already had Qingxuan and Mochen continue watching Storm Valley to see whether the Variant Sect will rebuild its cultivation site. I've also sent people to investigate other places for Variant Sect strongholds."
Lin Taichu said, "There's also the Snake Shadow Cult. I heard from the Variant Sect disciples before that the Snake Shadow Cult Master was captured, and the people behind it were from the Variant Sect. We can start with the Snake Shadow Cult. We may be able to find more clues about the Variant Sect."
The Sect Master said, "I've already sent people to investigate the Snake Shadow Cult's situation. There should be news before long. Physician Lin, you've worked hard during this time."
"You're too kind, Sect Master. This is my duty. As long as I can help the Lingxiao Sect resolve the trouble caused by the Variant Sect, any hardship is worth it."
A few days later, Qingxuan and Mochen sent word back. As expected, the Variant Sect had sent people to Storm Valley again, intending to rebuild the cultivation site.
