"Let’s go, teach them how to cultivate."
The older senior sister, seeing that the junior sister was silent, led them and a few kids away.
She couldn’t help but think, the kids they brought back this ti were really too poor in quality. No wonder Respected Master Liao disliked them, even she found them lacking.
But what could they do? Talented kids were few and far between, and those who had talent were being overly protected. They only managed to get these kids by promising the Saintess Sect would open up resources for them.
Hopefully, they could recruit a few more kids by tomorrow.
If no one cos to enroll, they would probably get a real scolding. Respected Master Liao was terrifying.
...
In the study of the Qing Family, with Qing Qiushi.
Qing Qiushi took a deep breath as he stared at the ssage brought by his subordinate, suppressing his anger as he placed the paper on the table.
"Uncle Qiushi, how is it?"
Min Yi had been with Qing Qiushi for the past two days, trying to get more information. Seeing his unhappy expression, he asked.
"In Yin City, children with even slightly better aptitude and talent were sent to the Saintess Sect," Qing Qiushi said, looking at Min Yi.
The key was, so families didn’t voluntarily send their children; they were forced by the disciples of the Saintess Sect, leaving them no choice but to send their children there to ensure their families’ safety.
This kind of behavior was no better than outright robbing them, at least that would be more straightforward.
"Take a look."
He pushed the paper towards Min Yi.
Min Yi didn’t hesitate, reached out for the paper, and upon closer examination, his eyes widened instantly.
"The Saintess Sect is making such a big move, aren’t they afraid of raising suspicion among the major clans?" It was akin to strong-arming, forcing families to break apart when they didn’t want to hand over their children.
"But, this also proves that these children are of critical importance to the Saintess Sect’s actions, right, Uncle Qiushi?"
"Yes."
Qing Qiushi nodded.
"Young Master, don’t co around for the next couple of days. Stay in the small courtyard," he suddenly said.
"Huh?"
Min Yi was taken aback, almost unable to react.
Was Uncle Qiushi annoyed that he was sticking around too much? He hadn’t even interfered with his work, just waiting for updates on the Saintess Sect, after all.
"There are people from the Saintess Sect in the Qing Family too."
Seeing Min Yi didn’t understand, Qing Qiushi explained further.
"The Saintess Sect must know that there are several new children in the Qing Family, and they are all highly gifted."
Upon hearing this, Min Yi understood what Qing Qiushi ant.
Indeed, Little Nuonuo and the others were at the Qing Family. If anything happened, who would he cry to? The inter-plane travelers from Huayan Peak and the High Priest Demon Heart from Wulong Mountain would co looking for him.
"I understand. I’ll be careful."
He wasn’t worried about Qian Yizheng and Qian Yizheng; if anyone dared to target them, it wasn’t easy to tell who would win.
He was worried about Little Nuonuo, who could co up with a hundred and eighty ideas a day. If the little guy found out they wanted to take him to the rciful Continent’s passageway, he would probably go willingly without any need for force!
"Yin City is going to be chaotic for a while," Qing Qiushi sighed.
Min Yi just raised an eyebrow without responding.
Of course, it would be chaotic; the Saintess Sect wouldn’t spare the children of major clans, who were their primary targets.
