Inside the Golden Sun Pavilion, the venue for the Life Crane Sect's master-disciple banquet, the tables were already filled with guests.
These were all representative figures from the various sects and schools within Han State. It was a rare sight to see them all together, and they were currently engaged in lively conversation, creating a bustling atmosphere.
But just as the noise reached its peak, the sound of slow footsteps approached. Everyone turned to look at the entrance, and in an instant, the hall fell deathly silent.
CLACK!
As he stepped over the threshold, Elder Life Crane gave the room a cold, sweeping glance before retracting his gaze.
He Tou followed him into the Golden Sun Pavilion, a strange smile on its face.
「At the same time.」
WHOOSH!
Everyone in attendance rose from their seats in unison, their gazes fixed on Elder Life Crane. The atmosphere felt somewhat delicate.
Elder Life Crane's arrival signaled the official start of the master-disciple banquet.
