After exchanging pleasantries upon his return, Patriarch Shui Cang noticed that the expressions of the clan elders seemed somewhat unnatural.
He sought out the elder he was most familiar with, the only elder who had refused to change the position of Patriarch earlier, and inquired about what had transpired in the manor.
The elder didn't elaborate.
He only said that there would be a council meeting in the Clan Elders Hall that evening, where things could be discussed face-to-face.
Shui Cang nodded in agreement and did not press further.
The meeting in the Clan Elders Hall... it would be the strategy that these elders had devised.
By then, they would all be prepared, lying in ambush, waiting for Shui Cang to enter the hall. They planned to attack together with three at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation and two at the eighth level, aiming to take Shui Cang down in one stroke.
