Chapter 75: Never Underestimate the Outer Sect Again (2)
The White Family, the predecessor of the White Dragon Sect, was originally a prominent clan that had produced generals and ministers for generations.
However, as the empire weakened and the court descended into chaos, they shifted course, transforming into a martial arts clan. Leveraging their existing influence over government offices, they rapidly expanded their power and walked a path of solid prosperity.
True to their noble lineage, the vast lands inherited through generations and the lands acquired when Gu Long Fortress was established brought them immense wealth.
Moreover, the treasures crafted using special techniques stolen from the imperial court still command high prices across the land, sustaining their wealth to this day.
It wasn’t merely about money.
Possessing three peerless masters including their leader, seven supreme masters, and a hundred first-rate masters, they were undeniably the second most powerful group in Nine Dragon City.
The Outer Hall was no match for them.
Yet, they had two reasons for confronting the White Dragon Hall.
First.
‘You have the Outer Sect Master and the Moksryongdang as solid backing. Through the recent Nine Dragons Contest, you’ve also built friendships with the Red Dragon Sword and the Returning Dragon Sword. Moreover, during the recent assault on the Ascension Pavilion, you risked your life to save the disciples, leaving their families indebted to you.’
As Yu Sopyeong explained, it was because of the connections he had built up over time.
