For a brief moment, no one moved after the sect leader vanished.
The wind blowing through the open doors of the hall only made everyone's hair sway, along with the banners bearing the symbol of the Verdant Sword Sect.
Feng Yuan had disappeared like a breath, leaving no trace behind.
The silence that followed was heavy, no one spoke first.
Kyrian kept his eyes fixed on the space where the sect leader had been just moments ago, thinking about the green shadow that had passed near him so quickly he couldn't even react.
For several seconds, the sound of the wind entering was the only noise in the hall.
Until Mei Ran suddenly spoke, turning to the elders.
"He really left… How long do you think he'll take to settle his matters?"
"I have no idea. But, a few weeks, or maybe even months. Still, I believe he'll return before the Gathering of Domains." one elder replied.
Mei Ran nodded, then took a step forward, looking at the others.
