Thinking about it carefully, this is normal.
Although he has reached the standard for discipleship by the Human Race Four Emperors and become their nominal disciple, he hasn't gained the acknowledgment from his senior brothers. The senior brothers in the sect are not obliged to help him.
In fact, even the Human Race Four Emperors cannot currently take him on personally; they rely on him to manage on his own for now.
Perhaps when he gains the recognition of his senior brothers through his own abilities, he will be able to leverage the power of the sect.
Naturally, Xiao Ye is very interested in the sect that Senior Brother Xing Shuo mentioned and tried to find out more indirectly.
But who is Xing Shuo?
He has been cultivating alongside the Supreme Empress for over eight hundred years and is a half-step Emperor. Xiao Ye's little schemes are easily seen through by him, and he effortlessly brushes them aside.
To this, Xiao Ye can only smile bitterly.
