Having acquired the Ice Armor, Xiao Yi made a bow and bid farewell to the Great Elder.
After leaving the Royal Capital, he found a secluded place on the outskirts to hide.
Not until then did he change his clothes and put on the Ghost Mask before returning to the Royal Capital.
Along the way, Xiao Yi pondered the matter of the Ice Armor.
It was a treasure of the Sect, and it surely wouldn't have been handed out lightly.
Xiao Yi had also asked the Great Elder about it.
And the Great Elder's answer was that it had always been a part of the Strongest Sword Master's inheritance.
And that it had always been in his possession, until now being passed on to Xiao Yi.
Honestly, Xiao Yi did not quite believe that answer.
He abruptly remembered the words spoken by the masked powerhouse he had encountered at Meteor County, who was also the Fourth Elder of the Sect.
"If it weren't for someone above looking out for you, do you think you'd still be alive to act recklessly in front of me?"
