Lin Mu opened one of the oldest records. Deng Siqi or rather the Heavenly Stream Immortal Daoist had apparently entered the sect as an ordinary disciple. His talent was described as decent but nothing exceptional.
His temperament, however, was praised repeatedly. He was hardworking and very reliable, known to be quite patient with his fellow disciples, juniors and elders alike. He also completed assignments without complaint and rarely caused trouble.
Lin Mu's brows furrowed. "This doesn't sound like someone who would eventually become the Heavenly Stream Immortal Daoist."
He continued reading and learned that the man had eventually advanced into the Inner Court. His records became increasingly sparse after that and then came a sudden gap.
Lin Mu searched several different archives but the same thing happened. His name disappeared from the local records. The next references were to a title: the Heavenly Stream Immortal Daoist.
Lin Mu's eyes narrowed. "They removed his name."
