Eight Ancient Continent, Ice and Fire City.
After Liu Yi and Yang Mu returned from the headquarters of the Alliance, Liu Yi's face was very gloomy. The girls of the Lu Clan were all in Ice and Fire City. They knew that Liu Yi had gone to the headquarters and were waiting for her return. When they saw Liu Yi's face, their hearts tightened.
"How is it?" Beauty Yang asked. "Did you find the enemy?"
Liu Yi took a deep breath and looked at everyone. She nodded and said, "I believe that my judgment is not wrong. The enemy who captured Dong Huashun is … Hidden Sky Sect!"
When the girls heard this, their bodies shook violently!
Hidden Sky Sect?!
"How could it be Hidden Sky Sect?" Yang Mu said in shock. "We have not had any dealings with them until now!"
"Yeah!" Shuang 'er nodded immediately and said, "How could it be them?"
Liu Yi looked at the six girls' shock. Actually, she was also shocked. However, the truth was right in front of her. She believed in her judgment more. Song Wenyu's reaction was completely abnormal. She could not be wrong.
Looking at Liu Yi's face, the girls gradually calmed down. Even Beauty Yang admitted that she was not as good at judging people as Liu Yi. Since Liu Yi could say the result so confidently, she should not be wrong.
But … why was it Hidden Sky Sect?
Hidden Sky Sect was a sect that kept a low profile among the thirty-one sects. However, this kind of low profile was different from Misty Rain Sect and Flower Moon Sect who were really isolated from the world and did not want to participate in worldly affairs. Hidden Sky Sect's style of doing things was very secretive. They did not leave any traces behind. It was not that they did not do anything. According to the rumors in the sect, Hidden Sky Sect had the characteristics of 'concealment' and 'deceiving the world' at the same time. They were unpredictable.
Of course, the most important thing was Hidden Sky Sect's power.
Everyone had a lot of guesses about Hidden Sky Sect's power. Even the other sects could not figure out Hidden Sky Sect's power completely. The sect master of Hidden Sky Sect was called Zhan Tian. It was a very rare surname. As for his name, it was changed after he became the sect master. However, no matter if it was his power or the power of the three vice sect masters, it was a mystery. Even the four level nine Heavenly Masters of Hidden Sky Sect, Wang Yangcheng, who was a martial arts maniac, did not accept the challenge. An unknown power was always the scariest.
However … even though the Hidden Sky Sect kept a low profile, it did not mean that they did not have any conflicts with other sects. The reason why the Hidden Sky Sect was able to become the leader of the factions was not only because they had four Level Nine Heavenly Masters, but also because of their past battle results.
About 1,400 years ago, the Sect Master at that time was not Warsky. Another sect had killed the Sect Master's son, causing the two sects to become mortal enemies.
At that time, the furious Hidden Sky Sect's Sect Leader had completely mobilized the Hidden Sky Sect's power. The power that he had displayed had far exceeded everyone's expectations, even his enemies. The enemy did not expect the Hidden Heaven Sect to be so powerful. In just one day, the sect was annihilated. Even the three Level Nine Heavenly Masters were all killed.
Once the Hidden Sky Sect attacked, they would be extremely fast, accurate, and ruthless. They were like hibernating wild beasts that paid particular attention to killing with a single strike. No one knew what method the Hidden Heaven Sect had used at that time. Even a Level Nine Heavenly Master could not escape, but this kind of ability was enough to make all the sects afraid. It was also because of this that the Hidden Sky Sect had always been regarded as one of the top sects and was equally famous as the Yin Yang Divine Sect, the Earth Sect, and the Heaven Devouring Sect.
"If it's really the Hidden Sky Sect that attacked us, then it'll be very troublesome." Beauty Yang's voice was cold as she said, "The Hidden Sky Sect is the only sect that the outside world doesn't even know their characteristics. They have no idea what methods they have."
Beauty Yang was right. For example, the Yin Yang Divine Sect's characteristics were the Yang God Absolute and the Yin God Absolute. The Fire Mountain Sect's characteristics were the fusion of earth and fire. The Hidden Sky Sect's terrifying characteristic was that they did not have any characteristics. They were like a cloud of fog.
"But why would they attack us?" Kong Yan could not figure it out and asked, "We've never offended them."
"Offending them doesn't necessarily mean that they have to attack. Threatening them is also considered offending them." Liu Yi said in a serious voice, "However, for the Hidden Sky Sect to suddenly attack at this time and during this kind of operation, there must be a very big direct reason."
Then, Liu Yi said to Kong Yan, "Ask Madam Xu to come over. I'd like to hear her opinion."
Kong Yan nodded and quickly returned after leaving. Madam Xu naturally came along.
"Alliance Master Liu." Xu Ying bowed to Liu Yi.
"Madam Xu, please take a seat." Liu Yi raised her hand and gestured. After Xu Ying sat down, she said, "I've asked you to come over this time to ask about the Hidden Sky Sect. I wonder if you know anything about it?"
Although Xu Ying was only a Level Eight Heavenly Master, due to her special identity and position, the information she knew would definitely not be any less than a Level Nine Heavenly Master. She was slightly stunned, but immediately thought about it and said, "I don't know much. Just say whatever comes to mind."
"The Hidden Sky Sect's Sect Master, Zhan Tian. He's been the Sect Master for more than eight hundred years, but no one knows Zhan Tian's age." Xu Ying said, "Some sects even captured the Hidden Sky Sect's elders to find out about this, but even the elders don't know. According to the sect's speculation, Zhan Tian should be between one thousand and one thousand four hundred years old. "
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. If Zhan Tian was one thousand four hundred years old, it meant that more than half of his lifespan had passed. This was considered very old among the Sect Masters. Many Sect Masters at this age would even give up their power and travel around to enjoy the rest of their lives. Very few of them would persist.
"According to what the outside world knows, Zhan Tian only had one wife. It was a core elder he married after becoming the Sect Master. However, the good times didn't last long. After about two hundred years, this wife died in an operation. Since then, Zhan Tian became a loner and never married again. "
"Does he have children?" Liu Yi suddenly asked.
Xu Ying shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know. No one knows."
Liu Yi's brows furrowed even more. It was hard to imagine how secretive this information was. However, the more secretive it was, the more Liu Yi felt that something was amiss. Why would such a powerful sect be so secretive?
A Heavenly Master was not a scholar. Most of them would not pay attention to being gentle and refined. Most of them were straightforward and straightforward. If they were powerful, they would definitely be flamboyant, just like the Yin Yang Divine Sect, the Earth Sect, and the Heaven Devouring Sect. Why was the entire Hidden Heaven Sect able to keep their composure and conceal themselves for generations? They were so secretive that it made people feel wronged. What was the benefit of cultivating like this?
"Are there any conditions to join the Hidden Heaven Sect?" Liu Yi asked again.
"The Hidden Heaven Sect rarely accepts requests from outsiders to join unless they are extremely talented. Even so, they are careful and only accept them after they have figured out their background." Xu Ying said, "Most of the disciples are actively recruited by the Hidden Heaven Sect. Furthermore, they are nurtured from a young age. This is the only way to ensure that there won't be any problems."
Hearing this, Liu Yi felt that there was something wrong with this sect. Moreover, it was definitely a very big problem. This did not seem like the behavior of a normal sect. However, the Hidden Heaven Sect had gone through so many generations. It was impossible to say that they had other motives. Why was it like this?
"Is there any other information?" Liu Yi asked.
Xu Ying thought about it seriously. She did not know much about the Hidden Heaven Sect. Furthermore, the Hidden Heaven Sect had never been the target of the Myriad Light Sect. Xu Ying would not pay much attention to the Hidden Heaven Sect.
However, just as Xu Ying was about to shake her head, she suddenly remembered something and said, "I remember that there was once a fight between the Myriad Light Sect and the Hidden Heaven Sect outside. The Hidden Heaven Sect's people were stronger and killed all of the Myriad Light Sect's people. The Myriad Light Sect flew into a rage because of this. In order to settle this matter, the Hidden Heaven Sect once sent a core elder to the Myriad Light Sect. At that time, Wang Hong received him personally. The two of them chatted for a long time before leaving. The conflict between the two sects was settled because of this. There was no more trouble. "
Liu Yi frowned when she heard this. This was just a normal conflict. She asked, "Is there a problem?"
"Yes." Xu Ying nodded and said, "As far as I know, the Hidden Heaven Sect did not offer any substantial compensation. I even asked Wang Hong about this. However, he did not look like he was threatened. Instead, he was very satisfied with the Hidden Heaven Sect's actions."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. There was no substantial compensation, but Wang Hong was very satisfied. Why was that?
"When did this happen?" Liu Yi asked.
"Very recently. Just three years ago." Xu Ying said, "Usually, Wang Hong would tell me everything that I asked him. However, he refused to say a word about this matter. He even told me not to ask."
Liu Yi frowned when she heard this. It seemed that she had to gather as much information about the Hidden Heaven Sect as possible in the following period of time. As for Dong Huashun's revenge, she could not avenge him. She could only temporarily endure such a strong opponent.
