บท 216: Sect War

Lassim's eyes narrowed as he absorbed the disciple's words. The Endless Sun Sect's sudden aggression was a problem, but the timing was curious as the timeline didn't match up with how long he'd spent in Ava's God Trial.

"Wait," Lassim said, holding up a hand to halt the disciple's explanation. "You're saying these attacks started the day after the Lightning Sect sent its disciples into the God's Trial? That was only a month ago?"

The disciple nodded, wincing slightly as he adjusted the sling around his arm. "Yeah, the timing was almost too perfect. A lot of our strongest disciples were sent away for the trial, leaving us spread thin. That's when the Endless Sun Sect made their move."

"And you said it's because they implemented a reward system? What could they possibly be giving away that'd make the cultivators so crazy?" Lassim pressed, his mind racing.
