195 Zhou Mei's Confusion

'But how could he get his hands on the only immortal technique of the sect that costs over 50,000 contribution points, as an outer sect disciple?' Zhou Mei wondered with her eyes still wide open.

'Could the disciples be correct and he is actually a son of an elder?' she wondered. 'But even then getting your hands on the technique should be impossible, unless…' her eyes turned wide at her own speculations. 

'Unless he is the sect master's own son. Besides, she is the only one that I know of that has fully learned the Flickering Shadows technique. Was she hiding him from us? Is he a secret love child with an outsider?' 

Numerous thoughts ran across her mind trying to make sense of how an unknown Outer Sect disciple could become a core disciple directly, and how that person could have learned an immortal technique. 

"Sister? Sister!" Zhou Mi called out trying to wake Zhou Mei out of her own thoughts. 

"Yeah? What's wrong?" she asked.
