Even without giving any attention to the two people whose faces had already turned ashen, Long Yan continued speaking.
"First, the days that Mingyue Sect travels to Moon City every year are fixed. Just now I learned from Yin Yue's mouth that normally Qiong Tian Gate wouldn't bother Mingyue Sect at this time, because recruiting new disciples is akin to a sect's lineage. If they were offended, it would result in an enmity akin to death."
Before going up the mountain, Long Yan had already asked Yin Yue, who, after thinking carefully for a while, gave a definite answer. Qiong Tian Gate generally wouldn't trouble Mingyue Sect at this time because they also recruit new disciples during this period.
As for Yin Yue herself, her injury occurred during a training against a Demon Beast. Normally, recruiting new disciples would not require Yin Yue's intervention, but at the insistence of the Second Elder, Yin Yue eventually led the disciples to Moon City to recruit new disciples.
