"The Snow Immortal sect?"
Alex couldn't hide his surprise.
"You know of it?" the woman asked, her smile widening a little.
"I do," Alex said. "I'm sorry to say this, but the Snow Immortal sect is no longer what it used to be. It's a tiny sect now that only continues to exist because of its name in the past. Otherwise, it has no reputation in the Northern Continent."
The woman's face fell.
"What?" she asked. "Why?"
Alex didn't immediately answer and instead thought for a moment longer.
Xue Yu'er. Xue Kuangren. He could see the similarity in their names now. Were they related perhaps?
Alex recalled the time when he was captured by the Mad Immortal, forced to make pills for him. He indeed remembered him talking about the founder of the Snow Immortal sect, and how she had once returned from the Immortal realms.
