"What kind of family does this person come from? How come there is no information about him at all?"
An old man frowned in deep thought, stroking his beard, and said, "Any outstanding person cannot remain unknown, let alone a person like this? In particular, the demeanor of this East City Lord is incomparable to that of ordinary people. It can be seen that he must have been famous for a long time."
The middle-aged man sitting next to him said, "That's true. Not only did the people we sent out not inquire about the information about East City Lord Qi Kang, but the people from other forces were the same. No one had any information about him. It was as if he appeared out of thin air."
"Appeared out of thin air?" The old man paused while stroking his beard and shook his head. "No, it is impossible for a person to appear out of thin air. It's just that his origin is mysterious and we can't find out. But, what kind of origin could it be that we can't find out?"
"Unless..." The head of the main family spoke hesitantly, but did not say it out loud, with uncertainty in his eyes.
Everyone in the hall looked at the patriarch who was in deep thought. Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, they looked at each other. One of them asked, "Patriarch, unless what?"
The patriarch glanced at them, paused for a moment, and then said, "Unless, he is not originally from our continent."
When these words came out, everyone was slightly stunned. A middle-aged man said in astonishment, "He is not from our continent? How is that possible? He is right here, so he must be from here. Maybe he is from some mysterious family."
"Speaking of the word mysterious, it reminds me of those people on the bounty list a few months ago." A middle-aged man said thoughtfully.
Another person glanced at him and said, "Aren't the people on the wanted list the ones who killed the Immortal Sect's Peak Master and destroyed the cultivation of more than a dozen of their disciples? It is said that they later destroyed several families that put them on the wanted list. This incident caused a big fuss, and even the people on the wanted list didn't dare to accept the wanted notices about them. It is precisely because of this that, except for some people who have seen the portraits on the wanted list earlier, no one knows what those people look like, and no one knows where they are from."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the hall fell silent. No one spoke, and they seemed to be thinking about something.
"There is only one Lord of East City. He should have nothing to do with those people, right?" said another middle-aged man. He added, "Besides, when the Lord of East City was selected, the people of the Immortal Sect were all watching on the stage. If it was really Lord of East City Qi Kang, how could it be possible..."
Having said this, he suddenly stopped talking, as if he had thought of something. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out for a long time.
Everyone in the hall seemed to have thought of something. They looked at each other and thought of the scene when Duan Yunhe from the Immortal Sect was so shocked that he broke the teacup when he saw Qi Kang.
After a long while, the head of the main family took a deep breath and said, "Let's leave it at that! Just keep it to yourself, but don't tell anyone about it, or you'll get into trouble."
Everyone stood up with serious expressions and responded solemnly: "Yes, we know."
If it really was those people, then they could only keep this guess in their hearts and not tell anyone else. After all, the destruction of those families and the murder of the immortal sect's peak master were all still fresh in their minds, and no one dared to touch this bad luck.
