"They had some matters to attend to, I will be leaving and joining them very soon, I came back to notify everyone that the problem with Celestial Cloud Sect has been solved, they have suffered what they deserve" That was only semi-true but was a good reason for her to leave.

News traveled extremely slow so they hadn't got wind of it yet.

"Huh?" They were dumbfounded, at most they had thought that the girl would only be causing an internal conflict thus weakening them, giving the Lightning Purple Phoenix Sect the chance to threaten them for compensation, but who could've foreseen that Zi Hua would punish Celestial Cloud Sect herself.

"Thank you guest!" They didn't suspect Zi Hua to be lying and earnestly believed her, she had little reason to lie anyways.

"As thanks, guest you can request anything that is within our means" They couldn't go back on their word now.

"I won't hold back then, in fact, I had come here for something that is in your sect"

"?!" The elders had a confused look.

"Elders, you are dismissed, guest please follow me" A glint of light flashed in the Sect leader's eyes, the glance that Zi Hua had given her told her the answer of what she seeked.

Zi Hua followed the Sect leader to the inner part of the hall where the Sect leader's personal quarters were.

"Guest, I'm afraid I cannot give you the map, even if you were entrusted to us by our lord's descendant"

"Oh, I thought you said that he was your lord"

"My lord is the one who brought that map here"

That was the reason why Zi Hua didn't use Xiao Zi's ident.i.ty to get the map, she understood their mindset of only recognizing Xiao Zi's ancestor as their true lord, well, the Sect leader had that mindset.

"It seems that you have been quite protective of it even to the extent of which it's existence is kept from your elders"

"Of course, but it seems that it's still not enough prevention since you had gotten wind of it"

"Don't misunderstand, it was merely a speculation, Celestial Cloud Sect had a map so why wouldn't the other two sects have one"

"They had one too? But how?" The Sect leader was extremely perplexed, they and Deep Sky Dragon Sect had acquired the map through their lords but how did Celestial Cloud Sect get it, she immediately became cautious, she had thought that Zi Hua was no threat but for her to know about something which they did not know meant that she had quite the abilities.

"Who knows, but my speculation was right. Sect leader, did your lord say anything about it? Such as the rightful owner appearing" A red and blue flame floated above her hand.

The Sect leader's eyes widened in surprise.

"My apologies, I did not realize that you were the inheritor, please allow me to explain"

"A story is pa.s.sed down from Sect leader to Sect leader, the story of our lord. Our lord and the Deep Sky Dragon had been pursued due to the map, by the time they arrived here they had both gotten fatal injuries, thus they had handed it to two humans who then started a Sect each to protect the map. The lords said a phrase to us 'a inheritor shall appear, the inheritor is the rightful owner of the map, only the inheritor can take the power of the flame, others shall perish, those that seek the map are many but guard it until the inheritor appears, the inheritor of the Supreme Sovereign. However, the inheritor must do a deed for us before getting the map'. The lords then gave a carving of the flame so that when the inheritor appears we can distinguish them from fakes"
