"Please, everyone, stop hitting me. I'll talk."
Cui Xian became very obedient, his air of superiority completely gone.
He recounted everything that had happened above.
It confirmed what Yang Ling had said earlier.
"Our Crimson-Refined Fire Flood Dragon Sect was just... absorbed into the Great Dream Dynasty?"
Zhuang Xu murmured to himself:
"Why..."
Why? A barely perceptible sneer flashed through Cui Xian's eyes.
The Sixth Ranks present turned ashen. Of course they knew why.
The man had already told them that their First Rank Land Immortal had passed away long ago.
That was why the Great Dream Dynasty had joined forces with the other first-rate powers of the Martial Alliance to wipe out the Crimson-Refined Fire Flood Dragon Sect!
"A first-rate sect without a First Rank Land Immortal presiding over it becomes a succulent piece of meat, attracting countless predators."
A thought stirred in Yang Ling's mind, and he suddenly asked:
"Ghost Monkey Cui, is your Cui Family a family of beast tamers?"
Cui Xian looked at Yang Ling, his eyes filled with deep wariness:
"That's right. My Cui Family is renowned even in the Great Dream Dynasty. We have a Third-Rank Grandmaster presiding over our family."
"Steward Yang, Ghost Monkey Cui does indeed come from a distinguished background. The Cui Family's Third-Rank Grandmaster has quite a reputation in the Martial Alliance."
"Many Grandmasters of the same rank are no match for him. The beasts he commands are terrifyingly powerful."
The Sixth Rank who had recognized Ghost Monkey Cui earlier spoke with a somewhat respectful expression.
The other Sixth Ranks present also knew why his tone was so respectful.
Yang Ling had unobtrusively dealt with that ghost monkey, then stopped Cui Xian with a single throwing knife.
Such methods were clearly beyond the scope of a Middle Sixth Rank.
