Lu Sheng took just a short while to figure out the old Sect Master’s intentions.
"And where is the Sect Master’s esteemed Master now?" He was somewhat moved. An expert that was the Sect Master’s master was surely of a realm even higher than Spirit Focus. It wasn't a bad thing for him to be his Master.
"My Master has already left this world for more than ten years," the old Sect Master replied somberly.
Lu Sheng was speechless. It seems like the Sect Master was trying really hard to tie him to the same boat as Crimson Whale Sect.
One must understand that in this world, once he formally entered the tutelage of a Master, his reputation would go down the drain if he ever rebelled one day in the future. This was akin to repaying kindness with enmity, or to do wrong by one’s benefactor--something frowned upon by all.
Therefore, the moment he joined the school of the Crimson Whale Sect Master, there would be no room for him to switch allegiance in the future.
