Xuanti Sect.
The atmosphere was extraordinarily somber, especially among the young disciples.
Other sects also had disciples in low spirits, but their morale was dampened due to the loss of their mentors and elders, their fellow sect members, their friends, and their family, all of whom had fallen into sorrow because of those deaths.
But the disciples of the Xuanti Sect were different.
During the domain wars, they were heroes resisting the Luoyang Domain; but as the war abruptly ended, they had been labeled as traitors.
This extreme reversal of identity was something the disciples of the Xuanti Sect could not accept.
At first they argued and even fought with the cultivators who were spreading rumors, but as the Elders collectively remained silent, and neither the Sect Master nor any Elder spoke out, the disciples realized that these were likely not just rumors.
The Xuanti Sect had truly betrayed the Chengshan Realm.
