Luo Long knew that Jiang Ning was an incredible fighter. He had seen the limits of Luo Qi's abilities. But when it came to Jiang Ning... After all this while, he had not seen what Jiang Ning was truly capable of. None of the elders could force him to reveal all his cards. Luo Qi was being manipulated by Mr Lang. He didn't deserve to die for it. Tianlian Sect needed its chief.

"Did you hear what I just said?" Luo Long began to panic when Jiang Ning didn't say a word.

He was genuinely worried that Jiang Ning might kill Luo Qi.

"Yes," said Jiang Ning plainly as he nodded.

They had discussed earlier and agreed that Luo Long would get Jiang Ning into the ancestral hall while Jiang Ning would hide himself and find a chance to make a move later that night. Time passed steadily.

Soon, night fell.

Luo Long was the one who made preparations for the ancestral worship that took place every month. There were rules on whom could attend ancestral worship, where each person was to stand and who was allowed to speak.

The sky gradually darkened.

"Watch out, don't knock those wreaths over."

"Move a little to the side. You're standing in the way."

The servants were busy with the final preparations. Those who were supposed to attend the ancestral worship had begun to arrive. "Elder Huang, you're supposed to light the incense sticks tonight," said Luo Long as he looked at the other elder. "It's your turn to do it." Elder Huang shook his head. He looked terrible. "I don't deserve to do it."

Suffering a reprimand from Luo Qi at his age had been an utter humiliation to him. If he weren't afraid of dying, he would have killed himself.
