"Call for a meeting with all the family elders… immediately," the elderly man ordered.
"Y... Yes, Master," the young man named Yuan replied, bowing slightly before hurrying out of the room.
"So, the time has finally come, huh!" The old man muttered under his breath.
Within half an hour, inside a large chamber, five middle-aged individuals sat around a long table, four men and one woman. The seat at the head of the table remained vacant.
"What's this sudden meeting about?" the middle-aged woman asked, frowning slightly.
"No idea," one of the men replied. "Yuan just said the family head wants to speak with all the elders."
"None of you..." the woman began to speak again, but the door to the room suddenly swung open. Yuan entered hastily. "The Master has arrived!" he announced.
All five elders immediately rose from their seats.
