Outside Helian Rong's room, at the end of the corridor, as Helian Rong entered the room, two figures appeared.
An old man and a young one.
The old man was none other than Duanmu Wugou, who fled after the great battle at Qingtian Sect and had been missing ever since. The young man was his great-grandson, Duanmu Lingfeng.
During the battle at Qingtian Sect, the Duanmu Family suffered a heavy loss, with Duanmu Wuwang and Duanmu Wuwo both dying in combat, and many of their masters also dead or wounded.
Even worse, Duanmu Cheng, who had been body-seized, colluded with Duanmu Wentong and Duanmu Song to split the Duanmu Family, rendering the family's overall strength to a minor power.
Every time Duanmu Wugou thought of these things, he was heartbroken, alternating between hatred, regret, resentment, and pain.
He felt ashamed before the Duanmu Family. How could he face the ancestors of the Duanmu Family when he dies one day!
