The Heavenly White Tiger Clan's Leader swept the scene with a cold, calculating gaze, his eyes briefly lingering on Bai Ning before moving to Bai Xutao, who lay buried beneath a mountain of rubble and dust. Although Bai Xutao appeared to be a burned corpse, he was still alive.
Eventually, the Clan Leader returned to Yuan and spoke in an emotionless tone, "What are you trying to achieve here?"
Yuan braced for the Clan Leader to erupt in fury, certain he would attack in a blind rage over the devastation to his clan. But to his surprise, the Clan Leader remained unnervingly calm.
"I have two objectives here," Yuan said calmly. "First, to deal with Bai Xutao, who harmed my companion. And second, to acquire your Ancient Seal."
At the mention of the Ancient Seal, the Clan Leader's eyes narrowed, his expression betraying nothing. However, the elders couldn't hold back, their voices erupting in shock. "How does he know about the Ancient Seal?!"
