Not caring for Chun Xu's position, Zi Yao carried on. "The White Immortal sect's old fools think that what I want is an imperial clan scion. Nonsense. The imperial clan would never give us what we want. The grievances that led them to promulgate the ban in the first place run too deep. Thankfully, it is not likely that they can hold on to their authority for much longer. That man will soon become the undisputed master of the East—if he's not already. And if you can draw his attention, he will not mind giving us what we need. Xu'er, Master is counting on you," Zi Yao said, making Chun Xu's face grimace further.

But due to Dong Ling's purple taipans and other inconsistencies that she'd sensed in their repeated fights, the Sword Fairy had started to formulate her own conjectures regarding the Zi clan's secrets. However, it wasn't until Zi Yao mentioned this "imperial clan ban" that the fog unveiled.
