When morning arrived, everything returned to its usual routine.
The disciples of the sect woke up, began their cultivation, attended their lessons, and went about their daily affairs as they normally would.
Nobody realized that something had changed.
Young Master Xiao Fengchen and everyone who had been serving him had completely disappeared.
There were no bodies.
No signs of a battle.
No bloodstains.
Nothing that could suggest that a violent incident had taken place inside Xiao Fengchen's courtyard.
By then, Xiao Fengchen and his people had already been completely digested inside Brandon's stomach.
As far as everyone in the sect was concerned, they had simply vanished.
One day passed.
Then another.
And another.
Because Xiao Fengchen was a somewhat arrogant young master who often kept to himself, his absence did not immediately attract much attention.
