The Qingxu Sect was completely consumed by fire.
It was no ordinary forest fire. It was like a cloud of black smoke, or a gust of wind, and it set the people at the foot of the mountain talking.
Some said it was divine punishment, but everyone quickly silenced them.
The "immortals" on the mountain did good deeds and accumulated merit. All they brought the people was good fortune. What could they possibly be punished for?
Others said there was a great demon among the immortals, committing evil on the mountain and sparing not even his own sect.
In the end, though, no one knew the real reason.
On the third day after heavenly fire descended upon the Qingxu Sect, Gu Xiaoyou went down the mountain carrying two swords.
Hidden inside his robe was a purse with an ugly embroidered pattern and crooked stitches. It was obviously the work of a beginner.
His little junior brother had embroidered it for him by hand. It was also the only thing in this world he cared about.
