Within the large Immortal Sects, the relationship between fellow disciples also varies in closeness. In the Heavenly Gang Sect, Yun Chaoxian and Tang Shi's Master are fellow disciples, but not direct successors.
The deceased this time is Tang Shi's direct senior brother, the disciple personally taught by her master many years ago.
Despite the senior brother having left Heavenly Gang Sect over a decade ago, Heavenly Gang Sect is a sect that is extremely protective of their members. No matter how long you have been away, as long as a matter arises that concerns you, the sect will step in.
Actually, most Immortal Sects take on this responsibility, but the Heavenly Gang Sect has an unusually strong inclination towards it. It's unknown whether it has anything to do with the Heavenly Gang Sect sharing the same mindset.
When no leads could be found, Yun Chaoxian suggested seeking Chu Liang's help.
Initially, Tang Shi's master doubted, "Is that Shu Mountain disciple really effective?"
