Black Brotherhood

Since the empire was very large and demonic attacks were on the rise, the Black Brotherhood allowed other righteous Qi factions to join them as outer factions of the Black Brotherhood. 

There were two ways to get accepted as an outer faction: first, if a group of Qi warriors performed very well against some demonic attacks, they were granted the title of outer faction members of the Black Brotherhood; second, using wealth and navigating through the bureaucracy of the empire, one could buy their way to the title of an outer faction of the Black Brotherhood. 

There were many advantages to gaining the title of an outer faction of the Black Brotherhood, but the biggest advantage was that once the title was received, the members could roam through any kingdom of the empire without giving any explanation to anyone. Wuyi planned to roam through the whole empire if needed until he found what he was looking for, which was the cultivation method that perfectly suited him.
