Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Helplessness

"Has the mastermind behind the marketplace attack been found?" the Sect Master of Yuanming Sect asked with a composed expression.

It wasn't that he wasn't angry about the incident, but several days had passed since that night, and much of the fury in his heart had dissipated.

"No, we can't find any other clues." The clues that could be found all pointed to Demon Cultivators, which made people feel uneasy, as if the Demon Cultivators were being framed.

Although Demon Cultivators act on whims, that is just the surface; in reality, they value benefits greatly and seldom take unprovoked action unless there are sufficient benefits involved.

Despite Yunqing Marketplace's prosperity and bustle, it is only significant within the bounds of Yunping State; within ten thousand li, the marketplace doesn't rank at all!

Moreover, the most valuable Spiritual Object received by the marketplace in recent times was a tier-three Blood Essence Stone.
