"Thank you, Owner Liu Yun, for the apt description of your side of things. We will now move to you, Sect Master Han Qingling," Yang Qing said as he gestured toward the sect master of the Yellow Lotus Sect.
After hearing Liu Yun's account, something still felt off to him. The Yellow Lotus Sect was a sect with a long, storied history and deep foundations. It was a sect that had been around for over 10,000 years.
It seemed implausible for a sect of that caliber to risk its reputation over a few million middle-grade spirit stones.
Other than that, there were also other aspects that Yang Qing found suspect.
Why did the sect choose to take a loan from the Mountain Springs Pavilion in the first place? The interest rate they were offered was cheap, yes, but with the Yellow Lotus Sect's reputation, Yang Qing suspected they could have secured even lower rates from long-standing partners they had worked with for generations.
