Wushen Peak, the secret chamber for closed-door cultivation on the back mountain.
Xuan Ming Peak's Peak Master Wei Xuewen, Hou Tu Peak's Peak Master Huang Yutang, and Ju Mang Peak's Peak Master Gu Xingchao were standing in front of a stone cave on the back mountain.
"Protector, we indeed have an urgent matter that requires consultation with the Sect Hierarch, please pass on our message!" Wei Xuewen said anxiously and respectfully.
The Sect Hierarch's trusted aides, with their special status, amount to eight in total, also known as the Eight Great Blood Guards, who are loyal only to the Sect Hierarch and are independent of anyone else's authority, not involving themselves in the internal affairs of the Witchcraft Sect.
Although without actual power, the eight are deeply dreaded and respected within the sect.
