Chapter 473: The Origin Of The Dispute (1/2)

-----

[Day 192]

Today in the morning we were decided, we were moving into the Jade Snake Sect now.

I had received reports from Belle, as she had finally came back this morning.

She told me that the Jade Snake was in a similar situation than the Winter Lotus Sect, they had been attacked after their war with the Winter Lotus, and were now resting.

The Dark Shadow Sect might try to attack them at any time, so we have to go there to help them out.

And as I help them, I will become their savior and gain their trust… and resources!

Actually, I had already interrogated all the souls I caught from the Dark Shadow Sect, and learned a few things, but the most essential things I wanted to learn were clouded in black smoke, as if I wasn't allowed to learn it.

Something was clouding their very memories from revealing crucial info, what a pain.

This must be an external power because I wasn't able to dispel it.

At the end, these guy's souls were released and purified to go back to the transmigration wheel.

But this was a nice time to ask Mikohime about the Jade Snake sect and what exactly happened between the two.

I had gathered with my family and friends in a lunch with Mikohime for this very reason.

”Well, it is fair to tell you what happened… We were in harmony back then…” she sighed.

She told me that everything seemed in harmony until the Winter Lotus Sect offended the Jade Snake Sect when one of their young masters ended killing a young man from the Jade Snake Sect who resulted to be the best friend of the Sect Master's daughter and her future husband too.

Whew…

”Really? Such a simple conflict…” I sighed

It really feels like those Cultivation Stories now.

”What happened raged a war right away as the sect master of the Jade Snake Sect couldn't calm the sorrow of his daughter and could only avenge her beloved childhood friend and her future husband, whose marriage he had even already arranged…” sighed Mikohime.

”Huh… I feel bad for them now.” Sighed Benladann.

”Drake, can you see his soul around?” asked Miranda.

”No… Not really.” I sighed.

”And the worst thing is that this spoiled brat that began it all was the grandchild of my brother.” Sighed Mikohime.
