Although he was filled with hatred, Qi Renjie dared not show any signs of discontent.
In fact, to put on a good act, he deliberately feigned a look of nervousness, causing his legs to tremble involuntarily.
"Greetings... to all the Elders..."
Temporarily discarding his dignity, Qi Renjie knelt and paid respects to everyone present.
Bowing deeply is also one of the most outdated traditions of the Qi Family.
Every New Year, descendants lucky enough to return to the ancestral hall all kowtow and pay respects to everyone present.
Qi Renjie sneered at this, yet never expected he would one day stoop so low.
"Rise."
The Elder sitting in the primary seat spoke in a wooden tone.
His name was Qi Xianyi, the Patriarch of the previous generation and currently the most powerful person in the Elder Council.
After Qi Renjie stood up, he did not dare to raise his head, but instead stared straight at the floor: "I presume all the Elders have received the message from my eldest brother."
