How could Luo Qi kill the butler who had served him for so many years?
Luo Long wondered if Luo Qi had gone completely over the edge.
"Elder Luo Long." A subordinate called out after Luo Long who had begun to walk away. "Please be careful."
Something flickered in Luo Long's eyes. He nodded while his heart skipped a beat.
Without saying anything further, he hurried away.
Luo Qi was reading in his study.
He had not enjoyed reading in the past, but recently, he had been cooping himself up in the study all day. No one dared to intrude upon him. He had killed the butler who had served him for decades-he would kill anyone.
"I need to speak to the chief."
Luo Long was stopped by the guards outside the study.
"Elder Luo Long, the chief is reading now. He ordered us not to allow anyone to disturb him." The guard looked torn.
"Please don't make things difficult for us.”
Luo Long frowned slightly. "Why don't you tell him that I have something important that I have to speak to him about? It concerns the other sects."
"Yes, Elder Luo Long." The guard nodded. He needed a reason to speak to the chief, after all. He wouldn't know what else to say if Luo Long hadn't given him one.
The guard hurried into the room while Luo Long waited outside.
He watched as the guard dropped to his knee outside the study and informed Luo Qi of Luo Long's request. Something flickered in Luo Long's eyes. He didn't say anything, but simply pulled out a small bottle from his robes, poured a pill out and popped it into his mouth expressionlessly.
The guard approached him within moments.
"Elder Luo Long, the chief requests you to enter his study."
"Alright." Luo Long nodded and headed for the study.
In the past, he would have knocked on the door, then entered the room. But now, he stood outside the study, cupped his fists and greeted Luo Qi deferentially. "Chief, I need to speak to you about something."
"Enter."
Luo Qi's low and slightly hoarse voice travelled out of the study.
