He Yuzhou took a deep breath and said no more.

「In Yunlin Prefecture, within the tranquil back garden of the Liu Residence.」
Liu Mingxuan, Patriarch of the Liu Family, was holding an exquisite birdcage, teasing the brightly-feathered, priceless bird inside.
The sunlight filtered through the sparse bamboo leaves, casting mottled shadows. It was a scene of leisure and peace.
Just then, the sound of slightly hurried footsteps shattered the tranquility.
Liu Mingyuan, the second master of the Liu Family, walked quickly through the moon gate, an irrepressible look of excitement on his face as he headed straight for Liu Mingxuan.
"Brother!"
Liu Mingyuan's voice was tinged with a slight pant; he had clearly rushed over.
Liu Mingxuan didn't stop what he was doing. Still teasing the bird in a leisurely manner, he asked without turning his head, "What's all the fuss about? Didn't I send you to the Xuanjia Sect for news? Could it be..."
"Brother, it's wonderful news!"
