All Luo Qi had wanted at first was to survive, for Tianlian Sect to survive and prosper and to groom more skilled and strong fighters in the sect. But now...
"Chief, Tianlian Sect..." Luo Long was on the verge of saying something when he felt a sudden breeze.
He turned and saw someone step out from the shadows in the corner of the study.
Luo Qi felt his heart pulse heavily as soon as he looked into the man's eyes, as if he had just taken a plunge into a bottomless abyss.
"Mr Lang is here." Luo Qi turned towards him. "There are still parts of the book that I don't understand. Explain them to me."
"You'll get them if you take the time." Mr Lang approached Luo Qi. His gaze swept past Luo Long's face and paused as he stared into the latter's eyes.
"Elder Luo Long is here. Are you discussing something?" said the man with a smile. "Should I leave?"
"It's fine." Luo Qi shook his head. "Mr Lang is one of us. You don't have to go."
"That's right. Mr Lang is one of our own. He can stay." Luo Long nodded expressionlessly.
His soul seemed to have been sucked out of him, leaving a shell of a body with no mind of its own.
Mr Lang nodded.
"Are you done talking?"
"We're done,” said Luo Qi. "Alright, Luo Long, you can leave us. There's no room for negotiation. If they dare to defy us, we won't show them any mercy."
"Yes, Chief." Luo Long left the room without saying another word.
The door slid shut.
Luo Qi picked the book up again and instantly immersed himself in its pages. "This is simply incredible. What an amazing book this is! Mr Lang, are there more books like this outside the mountain?”
"There are tons of them," said Mr Lang. "The map on the Extreme Fist Technique Manual points to a treasure trove of ancient books with contents more incredible than what this book has."
