At the Chen Long Sect
"Who would have thought such a day would come? Looking back now, our decisions… perhaps they were wrong after all."Master Ming's voice was heavy as he sat in the grand conference hall, speaking to another elder at his side.
"What's done is done. No one can change the past. What is destined to happen will always happen," the elder replied calmly.
Just then, the guards announced the arrival of Lord Long Yuzhen. With his men behind him, Yuzhen—the ruler of the demon and dragon realms—stepped into the hall.
An elder escorted him respectfully to his designated seat. Though most of the sect's council had already gathered, the leader of the Chen Long Sect had yet to arrive.
Memories from long ago stirred warmth in Yuzhen's heart. The thought of seeing Zoe again made his pulse quicken. At the announcement of the sect leader's entry, anticipation rose within him.
