After several days at sea, Miao Zhiquiao's ship finally approached the near shores of the East Sea.

The four noble clans in the Jianghu held lofty status, but the Dongfang Clan was particularly unique.
While the Xiahou, Xuanyuan, and Huangfu clans established sects, widely recruiting disciples whose young members traveled the Jianghu and earned fame, the Dongfang Clan resembled more a Hidden Sect, rarely accessible to outsiders, with its members seldom venturing out, leaving only true or false tales spread within the Jianghu.
With the Dongfang Clan being rumored to excel in Mystical Arts, it inevitably gave this noble clan an ethereal aura.
