Chapter 1137 What Exactly Happened That Year

Upon seeing Master Bai Mei's hesitant demeanor, Lin Dong quickly pressed:

"Master Bai Mei, do you find yourself struggling to speak?"

"It's not exactly unspeakable," Master Bai Mei sighed, "but thinking about it now, I feel somewhat remorseful towards your father. Ah... I have some misgivings."

He then revealed to Lin Dong the events involving his father, Lin Zhantian, when he had visited the Sovereign Witch Sect.

It turned out his father had come to the Sovereign Witch Sect over twenty years ago, attracted by the legacy of the Sovereign Witch.

At the time of his visit, the Sovereign Witch Sect was under attack by a highly powerful Master Azan from the East Sea, who single-handedly defeated them.

Master Azan demanded that they hand over all witchcraft scriptures from ancient times. If the Sovereign Witch Sect refused, he threatened to exterminate the entire sect.

The Sovereign Witch Sect was indeed facing an existential threat.
