"Have you heard? The Hongyuan Holy Son has been ransomed back by his Protector."
"That Protector didn't storm in but opted for a ransom instead. It seems he is very wary of that native!"
The news of the Hongyuan Holy Son being ransomed back quickly spread among other Holy Sons and the Sealers.
Choosing a gentle ransom approach instead of coercion with force indicates no small issue.
Some said it's because of Ye Qiu's previous battle against the eight Descenders, making the Protector of the Hongyuan Sect very apprehensive of Ye Qiu, leaving them no choice but to resort to such means.
Many speculated on what price the Hongyuan Sect paid to make Ye Qiu release the person.
When this news reached the ears of the Hongyuan Holy Son and his Protector, they were all somewhat angry because exposing such matters, to be honest, was somewhat embarrassing.
A dignified Holy Son needing a ransom was completely diminishing the prestige of the Hongyuan Sect, but that was indeed the fact.
