Chapter 3238: People from the Qinglan Sect Also Showed Up
He definitely doesn’t want everyone to know where he’s gone or what he’s done; otherwise, he’ll just wait to be caught by other major clan members and be forced to discuss matters regarding the Saintess Sect.
"You all can have these. Any recent developments?" He handed the late-night snack to the clan guards and asked.
"Thank you, Eldest Young Master."
The clan guard happily accepted the snack, and seeing this, another guard quickly went to call their Qing Family companions over.
"Returning to Eldest Young Master, we’ve been keeping watch here and haven’t discovered much, but recently, a massive-toothed rhinoceros beast came and disturbed us twice. We don’t know its purpose."
The guard recalled the massive-toothed rhinoceros beast, which nearly exhausted them during the second encounter.
"Everyone’s talking; maybe the Saintess Sect still possesses some kind of treasure, which attracted the beast. We don’t know what kind of treasure it could be, and will have to wait for the Family Head to return and check it out."
Of course, it would be the Family Head leading people up there, and they, who guard the Saintess Sect’s entrance, might not get to see for themselves.
Upon hearing the guard’s words, Min Yi rolled his eyes.
How could he not know about the massive-toothed rhinoceros beast? It came for the treasure, but not the Saintess Sect’s treasure; it was the Seven-Colored Lotus Seeds in the hands of the little baby.
"And what about the others? Are you saying there have been no movements from the major clans?" He looked toward the other clan guards sitting in groups in the distance and asked.
The guard also glanced at those sitting around the campfires and sneered.
"They would like to make a move, but we’re no pushovers. We won’t let other major clans get ahead. Rest assured, Eldest Young Master, we’ve kept a tight watch, and no one can enter the Saintess Sect."
Min Yi’s mouth twitched slightly.
No matter what they claimed about keeping a tight watch, they still managed to get into the Saintess Sect and stayed for two days without anyone noticing, didn’t they?
"Besides the massive-toothed rhinoceros beast, were there any other demonic beasts causing disturbances?" he asked.
They had just returned not long ago and were unaware if anyone had snuck in before them while the guards were inattentive and taken anything from the Saintess Sect.
After all, they could think of ways, and so could other major clans.
"No, there weren’t."
The guard immediately shook his head.
One massive-toothed rhinoceros beast was already enough to make them tremble. If a few more showed up, wouldn’t it mean the end of their lives?
"Recently, however, many people from small aristocratic families have come to inquire but have all been turned away," he said.
Small aristocratic families are even less than Sects and lack any notable talent. Naturally, the Saintess Sect never considered them worth targeting.
Thus, they had no way of participating in this operation and could only secretly send people to the guards to gather information.
They’d offer small bribes or gifts, and that happened daily.
But they understood the importance and would never risk such a significant matter for personal gain. Otherwise, if anything went wrong, even sacrificing their lives wouldn’t suffice.
"Oh, right, a few days ago, people from the Qinglan Sect also showed up."
"The Qinglan Sect?"
Min Yi furrowed his brows.
"Isn’t the Qinglan Sect the one that has the best relationship with the Saintess Sect?"
He remembered several Sects being friendly with the Saintess Sect, especially the Qinglan Sect. With the trouble at the Saintess Sect, how could the Qinglan Sect still have the mind to inquire about news?
Isn’t the Sect Master of the Qinglan Sect afraid that after the major clans finish dealing with the Saintess Sect, they’ll turn on their sect as the lackeys of the Saintess Sect?
