Chapter 63


    The rain pours down, falling with a force that could bow a man to the ground. It is an oppressive cascade, heavy beyond enduring.


    The shrieking of the wind among the small vige buildings is akin to that of thementations of the damned. It is painfully cold with a darkness that nket the sky.


    Thunder rolls from afar, foretelling worse yet toe on this small vige. Yet beneath this storm, three hooded silhouettes made their way across the deserted small town.


    "Remind me why do I have to wear this hideous cape?! And why can''t I use my cultivation base to repel the rain?!" Asked Le in a hushed angry voice as she red at both Omis and Addi''s hooded figures.


    "For the one-hundredth time, this is an undercover expedition. We do not unnecessarily engage in fights and wey low!" Said Addi.


    "Well, that didn''t work out too well for us thest time we were here..." Murmured Omis under his breath.


    "And whose fault do you think that was?" Growled Addi as he red back at him.


    "Ooh~? Last time?" Asked Le with a smirk.


    "Enough! this should be the tavern." Said Addi as they stopped near the door of an old inn, a wooden sign hanged above it that had a rough carving of a cultivator standing on a flying sword into it.


    "Alright, then what are we waiting for? Let''s go~!" Enthusiastically said, Le as she pushed the door open.


    The group was then immediately assaulted by the strong smell of alcohol, mixed along with body odor-causing Le to pinch her nose in disgust.


    "On second thought maybe we don''t need the tavern!" She said as she turned around to leave before Addi grabbed her by the cor and forced her in, following them was Omis.


    The group caused the half-full inn bar to turn and look at them in curiosity their suspicious hooded figures causing some of the people to unconsciously move their chairs back a little.


    The inn owner, a surprisingly pretty youngdy with brown hair tied neatly behind her back did not seem to mind their ambiguous dressings as she put down the ss she was wiping on the counter before turning to them.


    "Wee to the Flying Sword Inn how could I help you?" She gave a professional business-like smile as she waited for their replies.


    "We heard you are the right person toe to in search for information." Said Omis as he calmly stared at her.


    Keeping her same professional smile, she replied.


    "I have no idea what you are talking about sir, if you want to rent a room, I''ll be more then happy to amodate you and your friends or if it''s a meal you are looking for do please take a seat and I''ll be with you in a second."


    Leaning over the counter Omis brought out a shiny Gold piece and dropped it in front of her, causing her eyes to widen momentarily as her smile faltered for a second before she swiftly snatched it with such speed not allowing anyone to see what had happened.


    "Please call me Rae, follow me." She said with a much brighter smile as she walked from behind the counter and led the group into a door under the stairs that led to the second floor.


    Once inside, a thick mat of dust covered the entire room. The room was bare with only two long couches that were ced facing each other.


    Every movement the group made seemed to prompt ghostly clouds to rise in the air causing Le to frown.


    "Please excuse the mess, as you can see I do not usually get to use this room much anymore." Said, Rae as she proceeded to dust off one side of the couch before sitting down.


    "Do please sit." She ushered them, causing Le to almost startining yet a stern look from Addi was able to keep her in check as she reluctantly dusted her side before plopping into the couch causing another cloud of dust to rise up, followed by Omis and Addi.


    "Let''s cut to the chase, what do you know about the Schr''s sect?" Asked Omis impatiently as he started straight into Rae''s eyes causing her smile to falter.


    "The Schr''s sect? Is this perhaps the only information you are looking for?" She asked confused.


    Turning to look at hispanions Addi simply raised his eyebrows while Le gave a shrugged her shoulders.


    "Yes, I need all the information you can give me about them, their location, everything."


    Scratching her head Rae''s smile turned into a shrewd one as she spoke.


    "Ah, not a lot of people know where the sect is located but thankfully you came to the right person! It''s just that dear customer, the fees you paid would only cover their location nothing more." She said as she looked at Omis expectedly.


    Speak first, well see about the restter. This time Addi replied with a cold voice, yet Raes smile remained unaffected as she nodded.


    Please give me a minute.


    Saying that she stood up and left the room in quick steps, the trio simply looked at each other and shrugged. Not long after, she came back with a map in her hand, cing it on the table she marked a location in a mountain range a few hundred kilometers away from their location.


    This is their hideout, ordinary mortals should not be able to miss it, but Im sure you dear customers are not any simple mortals so I trust that you will not miss it. She said with a smile. Rae has been running her Inn for a long time along with dealing with information, and if there was anything she learned, that would be reading people, she trusted her instincts as it has never failed her, and her instincts was telling her that the three hooded figure in front of her were not normal.


    Interesting. Said Addi as he brought out another shiny golden coin and ced it on the table.


    What do you know? He asked.


    Swiftly pocketing the coin as if afraid he will take it back, Rae replied.


    The Schrs sect, one of the most mysterious sects of the mortal realm, even more so than the Void sect itself! Rumors say that all the knowledge about the world is contained in the sect, their library that holds books and cultivation techniques that would shake the entire realm itself! Some im that The Schrs sect is actually the strongest in the realm, otherwise, how are they able to keep all of their knowledge to themselves?


    How were they able to protect it if it''s so precious and why wouldnt these other sects just gang upon them? Asked Le with a raised eyebrow.


    Thats the interesting part dear customer, there was a sect long ago that was foolish enough to challenge them.


    What happened? Asked Omis.


    They disappeared overnight from the face of the earth! Solemnly said, Rae.


    Well this just got more interesting. Said Omis.


    For the love of the Abyss, why is everything soplicated. Tiredly sighed Addi.
