The day after he brought Hua Ci and the others back, Lu Ye asked for their opinions and then, using the authority granted to him as Governor, took them back to the sect headquarters.
With her status as Seal Envoy, Shui Yuan branded Hua Ci and the other two with the battlefield marking of the Righteous Blood Sect. After paying respects to the sect master, Hua Ci and the others formally became disciples of the Righteous Blood Sect.
With that, including Yiyi, the Righteous Blood Sect now had five disciples within the Spirit Stream Realm.
Ruan Lingyu was very happy, and even the stoic Kong Niu had a few more smiles. Those days spent as independent cultivators were always tough, but from today onwards, they too had the backing of a sect.
As for Hua Ci... Lu Ye could sense that she did not have a strong personal desire to join a sect.
