Unexpectedly, the steward refused.
The reason for refusal was simple: Xiao Yi's talent for martial cultivation was far from qualifying for the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect.
It was beyond his reach.
Instead, the steward said that Xiao Zhen had enough talent for martial cultivation to decide to take Xiao Zhen to the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect.
Xiao Zhen could only agree. She felt that she had tried her best, but since her sister lacked the talent for martial cultivation, she couldn't be blamed.
What they really didn't expect was that upon hearing this news, Xiao Shouxing, Xuu Lanting, and Xiao Yi could not believe it.
They completely disbelieved it.
They were certain that it was Xiao Zhen herself being selfish, changing her mind at the last minute to seize this sky-high opportunity.
No matter how Xiao Zhen explained, it was useless.
Relations had thus become completely rigid.
Over the years, she rarely returned to the Xiao Family.
