"In a way, it also means that I'm part of the Assassin Sect?" asked Xia Fei. Now that he was knee-deep, he might as well go along and try to save his life. Who was Bloodshadow? Xia Fei did not know, nor did he want to find out.
"Yes. Technically, you're one of us. Has your family ever mentioned anything about this to you?" asked Craneshadow.
Xia Fei shook his head and said in a pitiful voice, "I lost all my kin when I was young; I've never heard any of this."
Craneshadow nodded. Xia Fei's unfortunate past had him quite emotional.
"It appears that the stars lined up. Since you're already here, have you ever thought of joining the discipleship?" asked Craneshadow.
Xia Fei quickly nodded and said with a serious face. "I have the same idea as well. Since my techniques are highly related to the Assassin Sect, it makes sense for me to follow your teachings. I just wonder if the elders are willing to take me in?"
