Cumulonimbus laughed. He raised his glass and took a sip. He said, "Master Diego, you are dashing and generous too! The Sword Sect would truly prosper in your hands in the future."
"Thank you, Sect Master Swae, but you're the hero of our generation in the entire Nine Mainland!"
They were both praising each other and toasting each other. It was a lively time.
Soon, they had a few rounds of alcohol. Diego had drunk quite a lot of alcohol. His face was flushed red. However, he was still sober. He remembered the intention of his visit. He said, "Sect Master Swae, I have a favor to ask you, and I hope you can help me with it."
Sienna also put her glass down. She looked at Cumulonimbus with hope.
"What is it? Tell me." Cumulonimbus chuckled and nodded.
Diego took a deep breath. He looked somewhat guilty. "I'm embarrassed to say this, but a huge incident happened at the Sword Sect a few days ago. Our Deputy Sect Master, Khloris, betrayed us. She secretly took her disciple, Olive, and escaped. We have failed to bring her in."
Then, Diego glanced at Sienna and said, "We have been ordered to track Khloris and Olive, but we have searched around for two days without any clue. I hope that you can help us ask around. After all, we're in the New World. The Thunder Fire Gate is more familiar with this place."
What?
Cumulonimbus was stunned for quite a while before coming to his senses.
Khloris had betrayed the Sword Sect?
That was somewhat surprising to hear.
Even though Cumulonimbus had never been to the Sword Sect, as the Thunder Gate Fire's Sect Master, he was well-informed about the world of cultivators. He knew quite a lot about the Sword Sect too. He knew that Khloris, the Deputy Sect Master of the Sword Sect, was a gorgeous woman and a powerful woman. She was loyal to the Sword Sect. Also, she was aloof by nature. She practiced cultivation in seclusion all year round at the Sword Sect's altar. She rarely left the mountain.
