Chapter 957 Have Something To Report Back
That was also one of the reasons the individual of the Lestrange family agreed to lend the secret technique to Gideon for his perusal back then.
He had planned to get it back from Gideon three days later. Unexpectedly, he was summoned back by the Lestrange family before that time, and once he returned, he and his family’s way of leaving was sealed off.
That lasted for more than twenty years.
Throughout such a long time, it was impossible to continue keeping the matter of him. having lent the martial arts technique to an outsider secret. As the truth came to light, he naturally became the sinner of the Lestrange family.
Actually, the Lestrange family cared not about whether their secret technique was leaked.
Outsiders without blood ties to the Lestrange family could never succeed in cultivating it,
no matter what.
Even if they succeeded in cultivating it, there were still significant drawbacks. Take Gideon, for example. He ended up going off the deep end. As such, no one would dare cultivate it casually.
But if they were to learn that not only had Emrys successfully cultivated it but also mastered more than just their family’s secret technique, the Lestrange family’s thinking would likely change drastically.
They would certainly figure out a way to eradicate him.
Perhaps that was why Stein and Cassius decided to join forces and scal off the secret clan. families back then. Their objective was none other than to safeguard Emrys‘ growth.
Naturally, the Lestrange family was unaware of all that.
They were merely concerned about saving face.
After all, that was the Lestrange family’s most precious secret technique. If it were to be widely disseminated, their reputation would be ruined.
The reason the secret clan families harbored such deep resentment toward the thieves of Heavenly Pilferer Sect was that the latter repeatedly snuck into their ancestral lands and unabashedly transcribed everything from their ancestral tablets into their notebooks.

Chapter 957 Have Something To Report Back
It was bad enough that the secret clan families couldn’t catch them, but they couldn’t even prevent them from doing so.
Once, a furious ancestor of the secret sect decided to personally guard the secret. technique’s ancestral tablet. However, he somehow fell into slumber. When he woke, he saw a slovenly friar stooped over, transcribing from the ancestral tablet.
He was furious, his temper flaring. His patience snapped on the spot, and he roared, “Transcribe! Transcribe as much as you want! Do you need my help to move the secret technique’s ancestral tablet to Heavenly Pilferer Sect so you can transcribe to your heart’s content?”
Chuckling sheepishly, Cassius said, “Oh, that wouldn’t be appropriate since it belongs to you, after all. I’m just here to seize an opportunity.”
After saying that, he crushed a talisman and vanished into thin air.
Such an act was nothing short of a hard slap in the face to the secret clan families.
So, in a sense, the secret inheritance techniques of the secret clan families had actually leaked out a long time ago.
The only silver lining was that although those of Heavenly Pilferer Sect transcribed all the secret inheritance techniques, they didn’t disseminate them widely, making their motive
unfathomable.
As for that individual of the Lestrange family, the Lestrange family’s ancestor was livid after the incident came to light..
He felt that the thieves from Heavenly Pilferer Sect were better as they didn’t leak the secret technique. Conversely, one of their own practically handed it over to an outsider on a silver platter.
He executed that sinner of the Lestrange family on the spot to serve as a warning to
others.
This time, the Lestrange family sent Zephyr to retrieve the rubbed copy of the secret technique for the sole purpose of salvaging their reputation. They couldn’t let outsiders. think that their secret inheritance technique was something to be casually viewed by others as it would undermine their dignity.
Hence, whether it was damaged didn’t really matter. It sufficed as long as it could still be recognized as the Lestrange family’s secret inheritance technique.
