"This is impossible—!" The news was too shocking for the elders present to believe. Elder Wu shot to his feet. "The Patriarch never married. How could he have any descendants?"
"That's right, it can't be possible. The sect's records have never mentioned the Patriarch having descendants," Elder Qian chimed in.
"It is the absolute truth," Tu Buyu said from his position behind Su Yonghuang. "I was entrusted by the Elders to find the Patriarch's descendants. Although it is not in the sect's official records, one can still find clues in certain anecdotal tales."
At this point, Tu Buyu looked at Elder Gu. "Elder Gu, do you recall an audience with Elder Liu roughly sixteen hundred years ago? You accompanied the Elder Sect Leader. It wasn't just Elder Liu present at the time; I was there as well."
Gu Tieshou stared at Tu Buyu. After a long moment, he shot to his feet, his expression moved. "You... you're the young man who was helping Elder Liu back then!"
