When Steward Hu said the mission's danger came from people, Zhao Lin's heart skipped a beat. He asked, "What people?"
Steward Hu didn't answer. He pulled Zhao Lin to a corner of the hall before whispering, "The mission briefing mentioned that Red Tail Island is a disputed island between our Chenghua Sect and the Earth Dark Sect. It's currently under our joint control."
"In reality, the Earth Dark Sect has more control. Whether on the island or in the surrounding waters, our sect is at a relative disadvantage."
"To avoid conflict and war, the two sects reached an agreement long ago to temporarily set aside the dispute and jointly develop Red Tail Island's cultivation resources."
"They also agreed that each side can only dispatch twenty Qi Refining Realm cultivators. Neither side can send a single person more, and they certainly can't send cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm or above."
