"Have you never thought of killing him and taking his place?"
The Vermilion Bird Hall Master froze for a moment, then shook his head emphatically.
"The Young Venerable is our future. There is absolutely no possibility of replacing him."
"What's so special about him?"
"That... I cannot say."
Fang Shuwen nodded, letting the matter drop. He rubbed his fingertips together gently before asking another question.
"Can you tell me the location of Undying Island?"
"I cannot say that either."
"Then tell me about the Venerable One."
"...Matters concerning the Venerable One are even more taboo."
"The only thing I can tell you is that the Venerable One is currently unable to leave Dragon Emperor Hall. Otherwise, no one in the entire Jianghu would be his match."
He said this with conviction, but Fang Shuwen was unconvinced.
Undying Island was isolated in a remote corner of the world, and with its numerous masters, its people naturally looked down on the Eastern Domain Martial World.
