As Serena brought up the topic of the medicine cauldron, Master Vail was taken aback.

He wondered how Serena had come to know about it, since the previous head of the sect had explicitly instructed him to keep it a secret from everyone but the next head.

Master Vail tried to play it off casually.

“Serena, where did you hear about the medicine cauldron? I’m not aware of it…”

Serena’s tone became stern as she replied, “Master, the previous head of the sect told me about it a long time ago.

He mentioned that the Mystic Harmony Sect possesses a precious treasure, a medicine cauldron that is highly effective in refining medicinal herbs…”

“He also emphasized that only the head of the sect is qualified to inherit this treasure.

Now that you have passed on the position of head to me, the medicine cauldron should also be passed down.

Otherwise, how can I justify this to other Masters and my personal disciples in the future?”

Hearing this, Master Vail was stunned.

He had never expected that the previous head of the sect would reveal the secret of the medicine cauldron to Serena before passing on the throne.

He realized that he had been kept in the dark all along

Serena’s mind raced, and she couldn’t hold back her question any longer.

“Master, do you love me so much that you can’t bear to part with me, or do you distrust me so deeply that you refuse to share the truth with me?”

Her words caught Master Vail off guard, leaving him stuttering in response.

“Serena, I think you must be mistaken.

Mystic Harmony Sect doesn’t have any medicinal cauldrons.

I believe the Old Master was just teasing you.”

But Serena wasn’t convinced.

“No, the Old Master told me himself that the sect possesses a cauldron that’s been passed down for thousands of years.

You brought it here, didn’t you? Are you planning to keep it for yourself?”

Master Vail was at a loss for words.

“I swear to you as your teacher, I don’t have the cauldron you’re referring to.

If I did, I would gladly give it to you…”

Serena’s frown deepened.
