Nearly all the disciples of the Yao Guang lineage returned to the sect that night.
The disciples of the Yu Heng lineage likewise gathered that night.
Yet the killing intent on every one of them was countless times stronger than that of the Yao Guang lineage.
Faintly, they seemed to be carrying a battle that bordered on madness.
The changes in the Tian Quan lineage, however, appeared somewhat strange.
They too were gathering disciples, yet this lineage had assembled no fewer than two separate groups.
The greater portion naturally consisted of those summoned back by the Tian Quan Star Lord, but nearly one-third of the disciples had been recalled that night by another party.
That party was naturally Tian Quan's First Family, the Qiu Family.
That was right—the First Family.
The Tian Quan Qiu Family had once been the Star Lord family of the Tian Quan lineage, but for some unknown reason, more than half of its experts had died overnight several centuries ago.
From that night onward, the Tian Quan Qiu Family had fallen into decline.
Yet a starved camel was still bigger than a horse.
Even though the Tian Quan Qiu Family had merely become a Hidden Family of the Tian Quan lineage, the resources it received each year were enough to make the current Star Lord family green with envy.
Yet the Qiu Family had always regarded itself as a reclusive family.
They had even once declared that unless the sect reached a life-and-death crisis, the Qiu Family would remain secluded for all eternity and never emerge.
Such rumors had once been misunderstood as the Qiu Family harboring resentment toward the sect for refusing to help their Lineage, deliberately acting this way.
But now, it seemed there was another hidden truth behind it all!
Unfortunately.
