Huo Jiang couldn't wrap his head around what he was hearing.
In order to convince him, that other party gave him a price that was high enough to make him willing to take risks. The price was something that a disciple of a small clan would never get in their life.

But did he have a choice? From what she said, it proved that she was aware of the story. Once it got out, the reliability of the Qilin Festival would be affected, and, without a doubt, the king of Zhongzhou would definitely punish everyone involved. Not only would he get punished, he would drag his entire sect down with him. Between the sect's reputation and an ordinary disciple like him, it was obvious how the elders would react.
The sword-energy was wrapped around him. Huo Jiang felt chills run down his spin, and he sighed.
