"Are you sure, brother? If we don't do anything, your position will be taken by her," Xin Wuming said.
"If it happens, it happens," Amon replied. "Rank is not everything. I only care because I want the best cultivation environment provided by the first-rank residence. If I can get it without taking too many risks, I will. It is not the case now."
"You mean… it is risky to deal with Sima Fang?" Xin Wuming asked.
"Have you checked her background like I asked you to?" Amon asked.
"Yes, although I didn't discover much," Xin Wuming answered. "She came from a small clan in a border town called Cinder Ash Town. There is nothing noteworthy about either the town or her clan."
"I doubt a small clan can afford a group of skilled cultivators to protect their candidate here. There must be more to her than it looks."
