As Tanya and the others were shocked by the Frostcloud Sword Empress's revelation, the latter opened her mouth.
"Since you're all precious disciples from my Aurora Cloud Gate, I'll at least save you the fate of becoming crippled."
"…"
Natalya couldn't help but blink. So she almost joined and even brought Iesha on a whim only to have a chance of getting crippled here as she wasn't truly intent on pushing over Tanya to gain the inheritance? She wondered if she should lower her self-esteem in order to be careful, but she then shook her head.
Just because the Frostcloud Sword Empress said that she would save them from the fate of being crippled doesn't necessarily mean that she would be crippled.
"Frostcloud Sword Empress, can you tell us more about the Aurora Cloud Gate?" Niel Bladeheart didn't even care about that statement and seemed more interested in something else.
