Hearing Ban Ze's report, Elder Ban's face darkened so severely water could practically drip from it. Suppressing his rage, he demanded, "Did you find out who was behind this? And what about that wretch, Xinrong?"
Ban Ze looked none too pleased himself. Lowering his head, he replied, "Reporting to the Elder, no clues have turned up yet. The disciples assigned to watch him have already fallen; their Soul Lamps went out right at the moment the immortal manor ejected us.
Xinrong has vanished without a trace as well. When the men we left behind went to the shop, they found some unsold pills still there, but the elixir shop was completely empty. Even the front door was left wide open, and the shop assistants hired previously had already been dismissed long ago, with no one knowing where they went!"
