Chapter 341 Error 404: Person not found
"I wonder, what is your business to come to this sect without any notice?" Xiang Bai asked carefully.
"I am sorry for our sudden appearance. After all, my daughter is a bit eager to come to this place." Cecilia said.
"Hoo… I wonder why your daughter wants to come to this place? If I am not wrong, your sect is still in alliance with Mount Hua Sect. So, I am curious about what you want from this place." Xiang Bai narrowed his eyes.
"Fufu, Sect Master Xiang Bai does not need to be that careful to us. The alliance is only a misunderstanding, and we have canceled the agreement between us. So, you don't need to be that careful." Cecilia said.
"What!" Xiang Bai and the first elder was shocked to hear that.
"But, I presume, we should not talk about something like this in this place, am I right?"
Xiang Bai looked at her calm face and said, "Please follow me."
He led them to the small island in the center of the mountain peaks. He invited them here.
"So, could you elaborate it a bit more, Sect Master Cecilia?" Xiang Bai looked at Cecilia with a serious expression.
"As I said previously, the alliance is truly a misunderstanding. I am sure that Sect Master Xiang Bai knows about the rumor that my daughter was in love with someone."
"Indeed. That is the reason why Rainbow Flower Sect made an alliance with Mount Hua Sect. But If I am not wrong, Rainbow Flower Sect's princess had yet to find the man."
"She has found the man. But it turned out that he was not in Mount Hua Sect. Instead, he came from Heavenly Sword Sect. That's why I said the alliance is a misunderstanding." She said.
"Hoo… Is this not just your excuse to see our sect? You can come to this place and openly investigate my sect with a justified reason. And later, you can say it is also a misunderstanding…" Xiang Bai narrowed his eyes.
"You!" One of the elders was triggered by his words. After all, Xiang Bai was accusing them of something that was not true. But Xiang Bai only said this with his information.
He did not know whether Letizia was truly in love with someone or not. So, he said it might be an excuse for them to check their sect. Xiang Bai also needed to be careful since the grand tournament was around the corner, and even Rainbow Flower Sect might resort to something like this to get as many information as they could.
Cecilia immediately stopped them from saying anything. She then looked at Xiang Bai, "I know your concern Sect Master Xiang Bai. I can guarantee you that we don't have that kind of intention. We truly want to have a sect alliance with marriage. And I truly think both of them are a couple, matched by heaven."
"Hoo… But I remember that she never said who he was and even his appearance. She never told anyone about that. Now, I am truly curious why Mount Hua Sect was a misunderstanding, and Heavenly Sword Sect is not.
"Or maybe, even our sect is also a misunderstanding later. And you will go to the Buddha Sect."
The elders behind Cecilia could hardly calm down. If not because Cecilia stopped them, they might throw another insult on him.
Cecilia only smiled, "I can guarantee you that this is true. We truly want to have an alliance with your sect. The reason why she never told his name was because she did not know his name. They were separated before she knew his name.
"She only knew about his appearance. But if she described him perfectly, there might be a possibility of an impostor. So, we could only let her search for her own in the Mount Hua Sect.
"And a month ago, she finally learned his identity. And it turned out he came from Heavenly Sword Sect, not Mount Hua Sect. So, I, as a sect master, was also forced to cancel the alliance. Before my identity as a sect master, I am also a mother.
"Since she also falls in love with him. We can match them together, and our alliance will grow even stronger with this marriage. It is two birds in one stone." Cecilia explained with flowery words.
Letizia indeed did not know Alex's name before Zwaka teleported her back. But even if Zwaka did not teleport her back, she would not know Alex's name because Alex never had any intention to give her his name.
Letizia also did not love him. She decided to sacrifice herself for her sect. Although her mother was a bit concerned about her, she could not persuade her about this. So, she could only make a claim that she was in love with him to make it more believable.
And when Letizia knew about Alexander's identity, she was shocked beyond belief. It turned out he was more powerful than her imagination. From her clash with him in Zwaka's place, she knew Alex was an Array Master and also the bearer of Pure Element like her.
Then, she met Alexander Sirius again in the Nemu Forest. After many rumors and information, she finally understood she still underestimated him.
She learned that Alex was an Alchemist, a rank 4 Alchemist to boot. Not only that, but he also could use both sword and spear in an unprecedented way. This also startled the elders and her mother.
She could only say that Alexander was still hiding his full ability, and it could blow their mind if she could say it. Unfortunately, because of the Heavenly Oath, she could not. After many debates, she managed to convince them.
Cecilia was worried about her. But she kept telling her it was her duty or something and chose to bear it alone. She was even a bit furious when she heard Alexander was staying at a peak full of women.
Luckily, they also found out that Alexander did not have any relationship with them. It meant in both a good and a bad way. They knew Alex was not an embodiment of l.u.s.t. But they also could not take advantage of it. So, the only way for them was to force this marriage between them in the name of the alliance.
"But you are still not answering my question. Why could she even misunderstand that he comes from Mount Hua Sect, not Heavenly Sword Sect?" Xiang Bai asked again.
"Well, she only knows about a portion of his ability, and that ability is a trademark of Mount Hua Sect. So, she misunderstood and thought he came from Mount Hua Sect. But it turned out he came from Heavenly Sword Sect."
"…!" Both Xiang Bai and the first elder pondered before realizing who he was. They looked at each other, noticing both of them thought the same person.
"It must be him…" Xiang Bai said.
"Yeah… It must be him." The first elder nodded his head.
"Ugh!" Both of them suddenly looked down, feeling a bit down. They knew it must be Alexander Sirius. From all of the disciples in the Heavenly Sword Sect, the only one that could be mistaken to be a Mount Hua Sect Disciple would only be Alexander Sirius.
They learned his identity as an Alchemist in his fight with Intan. And they found his other identity, which was Array Master when Maxwell appeared to fend off their enemy. If he did not use his sword or spear, it was normal for her to mistake him as Mount Hua Sect disciple.
But this was also a problem for them. After all, they knew they could not just accept this alliance and this marriage thing. They needed to ask Alex about it too, considering his master already gave them a rank 6 Array.
Even more so, Alexander's potential was monstrous. Just from his master alone, they could imagine him being a powerhouse in the future. They remembered when Alex said that his master could even kill Martial Emperors with ease. And when Maxwell truly appeared in front of them, they could imagine that.
And a powerhouse of that level would not just take some random guy to be their disciple. In other words, he knew about Alex's talent in Sword, Spear, Alchemy, and Array. He knew that Alex could reach far above Martial King or Martial Emperor, he might even become a Martial Monarch if not Saint.
There were a few possibilities if they decided to take this agreement. First, Alex might be chained down by something like this should he agree to accept Letizia as his wife. Second, Alex might not like it and left the sect.
If it were only leaving the sect and never came back, then it would be good since they could profit a rank 6 Array. But if he decided to come back to deal with them, there would not be any Heavenly Sword Sect again in the future.
They also could not kill him. It was the most foolish option to think of. If they decided to kill him, they would not even imagine how they could kill him. Alex might not be able to fight them currently, but he could just ask his Master to kill them like he killed the people from the Zhou Kingdom. Killing him was the same as asking Alex to kill them. It was not even an option.
Even if they could get the rank 6 Array. Ultimately, it was still Alex that held the control of it. Alex could activate it or deactivate the array whenever he wanted.
They were glad there were no other elders in this place. Since their memories had been sealed by Maxwell, they might even try to pressure them to accept this marriage.
Looking at their troubled expression, Cecilia said, "Sect Master Xiang Bai. This is my daughter's biggest secret that no one knows except the high-ranking people in our sect. But this also shows how much we are serious about this matter. My daughter, Letizia, is a Pure Ice Element."
"What!"
"Pure Ice Element?"
They were too shocked to hear that Letizia was a Pure Ice Element. It was a supreme element, and the rarest element a person could get. But to think Letizia had it all the time and no one knew about it.
She would also become a powerhouse in the future. And they thought that she indeed had the qualification to be Alex's wife. But Alex's element alone was almost at the same as her in the rarity, albeit they did not know about Alex's space element.
They only knew that Alex was an Alchemist, and an Alchemist should only have a Fire Element. They did not know his Space Element yet. Of course, it was the same as Letizia because she never saw Alex's space element. She only convinced them with his Pure Fire Element.
Xiang Bai and the first elder were confused on what to do. They did not know whether to reject them or accept the alliance.
"I think we should ask the person in question since this is his life we are talking about. Let me lead you to the ninth peak." Xiang Bai decided to leave it to Alex.
Cecilia did not mind about it, but Letizia was a bit worried. She did not know whether Xiang Bai would help them persuade Alex or forced him to accept the marriage.
Sadly, when they arrived, Only Charya, who was in the ninth peak.
"Elder Charya, do you know where we can find Alexander Sirius?" Xiang Bai asked.
Charya was confused by him. She looked at Cecilia and Letizia before turning back to Xiang Bai, "Why do you want to ask him, Old Xiang?"
"Nothing. I assume you know about them, right? They are Sect Master Cecilia from Rainbow Flower Sect and her daughter, Letizia La Scola, and it seems she is in love with him. So, we want to ask for his opinion about this." Xiang Bai said.
When Charya heard that, she immediately realized why Alex suddenly went ahead of his schedule and went to the Thiveapia Kingdom. He must know that these people were coming and immediately left the sect.
"Pu…Hahaha…" Charya laughed. The people were dumbfounded when they saw her laugh, even Xiang Bai was clueless. Charya said to Letizia. "Girl, I don't know what you did. But it seems he is avoiding you. He has gone somewhere just before you arrived. Haha…"
