"Precisely," Kaamen answered Reman's question with a nod.
He then spoke further in the lowest possible voice he could manage.
"How else could an ordinary Spirit farmer like him have the sect's token? He played it smart by giving the token to that kid Ruan. After becoming an inner disciple and coming under the protection of a sect elder, nobody would question that kid or his mother.
I was wondering why anyone would be so generous to hand over such a big chance to their neighbors. Even family members with blood relations would tear each other apart just for a shot at becoming an inner disciple of the Purple River Sect, you know."
Jasmine was shocked after hearing Kaamen's words. She couldn't believe that Aksai had the guts and power to kill someone like Lian Lakir, especially in the Wilben family's territory during such chaotic times.
Sometimes one needs to embrace the solitude, for within its tranquil depths lie the keys to inner peace and self-discovery.
