“Hmm?!” Upon hearing this, Abby Meskill’s pupils contracted slightly. Then, she looked at the other person with a surprised expression and asked, “How do you know my grandmother’s name?”
As one of the oldest four major families in Glavale, the Meskill family’s young members generally hold themselves with pride and often look down upon outsiders. Many young people of marrying age prefer to marry within the family.
Fortunately, the Meskill family is quite extensive, with tens of thousands of direct and collateral relatives, which can meet the marriage needs of most people.
“She is the current sect master of the Purple Cloud Sect!” Perla Beasley responded.
“What?” Abby Meskill exclaimed, then asked excitedly, “Is what you said true?”
“Yes!” Perla Beasley nodded.
“Abby, is your grandmother not within the territory of Glavale?” Harleen asked with a hint of surprise.
Not only her, but also Opal, Casey, and others were staring at Abby Meskill with astonishment.
“No, she isn’t!” Abby Meskill responded.
“I’ve heard my father talk about it. Before I was born, my grandfather and grandmother separated due to a misunderstanding, and my grandmother left home in anger.”
“Shortly after that, my grandfather realized his mistake and regretted it. He searched everywhere for my grandmother, but to no avail.”
“Is such a thing possible?” Azure Dragon exclaimed again.
“Yes!” Abby Meskill nodded and continued, “Back in the capital, I insisted on going to the Polar Domain with Boss just to try my luck and see if I could find my grandmother.”
“Later, when Boss came to the Forbidden Ruins Space, I followed for the same reason.”
“I see!” Harleen and the others looked relieved.
“If Abby’s grandmother is the sect master of your Purple Cloud Sect, do you have any token? You can’t just claim it without evidence, right?” Azure Dragon asked Perla Beasley.
“Lady, you should recognize this half of a jade pendant, right?” Perla Beasley took out a damaged jade pendant from her body and handed it to Abby Meskill.
Seeing her demeanor, it was obvious that she came prepared.
“Hmm?” Abby Meskill took the jade pendant and looked at it, then took out the other half of the jade pendant from her own body.
“This… this is really something of my grandmother’s…”
Seeing the two pieces of jade pendant seamlessly combined, Abby Meskill’s voice trembled.
From then on, she no longer doubted Perla Beasley’s words.
After a slight pause, she looked at her and asked, “Elder Perla, how is my grandmother?”
“To be honest, the sect master’s condition is not very good!” Perla Beasley took a deep breath and added.
“A year ago, the sect master was seriously injured in a major battle and has been recuperating ever since.”
“Although there has been some improvement now, she can only recover about sixty to seventy percent of her peak strength, and she still suffers from pain and injuries.”
“It’s been a year and she’s still not better?” Abby Meskill frowned tightly.
“The sect master was seriously injured at the time, almost at death’s door, and countless doctors said they couldn’t help.” Perla Beasley nodded and continued, “Fortunately, the sect master has special bloodline in her body, which saved her life. If it were an ordinary person, it would have been impossible to survive until now.”
“How did you know that Abby is your sect master’s descendant?” Ivy asked with some surprise.
“Half a month ago, there were people from your Purple Cloud Sect in that valley?” Without waiting for a response, Opal asked.
“That’s right!” Perla Beasley nodded.
“Then those masked people who helped us escape, were they also from your sect?” Amber asked next.
“Yes!” Perla Beasley responded, “At that time, due to the special circumstances, they couldn’t reveal their true identities.”
“Opal, what happened half a month ago?” Azure Dragon asked Opal.
“It’s a long story, I’ll tell you later.” Opal responded before turning back to Perla Beasley.
“Even if you know Abby has special bloodline, how can you be sure she’s from the Meskill family?”
“This question puzzled not only her but also everyone, including Billy. It’s not difficult to detect someone with special bloodline as long as the person has some knowledge of medicine and a certain level of spiritual power. But it’s not that simple to determine which specific bloodline a person has. It’s hard to distinguish without physical contact.
“This question is actually quite simple!” Perla Beasley said, then looked at Abby Meskill. “Lady, do you remember the old man with white hair who saved you?”
“Yes, I do. Who is he?” Abby Meskill nodded.
“He’s from your grandmother’s family!” Perla Beasley responded. “When your grandmother left the Meskill family, she only took him with her. He’s been with your grandmother all these years.”
Upon hearing this, Billy and the others finally understood.
If the other party was from the Meskill family, it would be natural to easily determine Abby Meskill’s lineage through physical contact with her.
“Lady, come with me!” Perla Beasley then looked at Abby Meskill.
“The bloodline in your body is the purest of the Meskill family’s lineage. To completely heal the sect leader’s injuries, only you can help her!”
“Furthermore, the potential of your bloodline has not been fully tapped. Once you return to the sect, we will definitely help you undergo a transformation!”
“Opal, Boss, I…” Abby Meskill took a deep breath before addressing everyone.
For her, this trip was imperative!
Her purpose in leaving Glavale was to find her grandmother, and now that she had news, she naturally had to go meet her.
However, she didn’t know when she would see Billy and the others again once she left.
“Go ahead!” Opal smiled and looked at Abby Meskill.
“After we finish our business here, I’ll take Billy and the others to the Purple Cloud Sect to see you.”
“Moreover, if you miss us, you can come directly to Skydragon City to find us. It’s just a few hours away.”
“Okay!” Abby Meskill nodded.
Then, she said goodbye to Billy and the others one by one.
“Two young ladies, the mechanism diagram of the ‘Star Secret Space’ is something coveted by countless martial artists. Take care of yourselves!” Perla Beasley then said to Opal and Amber.
“Thank you for the reminder!” Opal nodded in response.
Five minutes later, Perla Beasley led the people of the Purple Cloud Sect and Abby Meskill away in the air.
“Boss, what about him?” At this time, White Tiger still held Max Castillo, who was barely breathing, in front of everyone.
“Give… give me a quick death…” Max Castillo struggled to speak to Billy.
His bones and meridians were shattered, and he had lost all will to live.
“Answer me a question, and I’ll give you a quick death!” Billy said.
“W… what question?” Max Castillo asked.
“Is someone from the Ice Cloud Imperial Family colluding with you?” Billy asked him.
“Capturing Opal and Amber to the Slaydragon Sect, it shouldn’t be just your own idea, right?”
“Yes…” Max Castillo didn’t hide it anymore; he only sought a quick death now.
“As expected!” Casey replied, “What’s the specific situation?”
Max Castillo let out a heavy sigh.
Then, he briefly described the incident.
After listening to him, Billy and the others frowned slightly.
If what Max Castillo said was true, then the situation within Ice Cloud Imperial Family was far complicated than they expected.
