At this point, Xia Ji looked at Fang Chen. "Is there any possibility that the fellow who wanted to harm your ancestor was actually wary of that female cultivator and the sect behind her?"
"You mean..." Fang Chen said thoughtfully. "The person plotting in secret actually belongs to the same sect as my ancestor?"
Xia Ji nodded lightly. "Other than that, I can't think of any reason why a sect in a top-tier empire would completely forget about a disciple of theirs. The person behind the plot must have some status and standing. Otherwise, your ancestor should have returned to the sect rather than going to such a remote place."
