Today seems destined to be an unsettled day.
Changning had barely managed to smooth things over with "Liua Ruoling" and hadn't had a chance to catch his breath when Wang Zongchang returned from the Outer Domain and immediately sought out Changning to report.
This time Zongchang's mission was quite important, and Changning was highly attentive to it.
In the study, Changning met with Wang Zongchang.
"Fourth Uncle," Wang Zongchang said apologetically, "Some time ago, during exploration in the Outer Domain, I was delayed by some matters, and thus couldn't make it back in time for the family's ascension ceremony."
Although Zongchang was a member of the "Zong" generation, he was actually only five years younger than Changning, and he was now in his early eighties.
Having been the first to awaken the Xunfeng Wind Element Bloodline through the Wedding Robe Blood Gu, he had always been Changning's right-hand man, one of the pillars of the family.
