The Hong family

Whoosh!

A candle suddenly went dark. The moment it did, suddenly, everyone in the room held their breaths.

That was because each one of these candles was more important than they were.

In this dark room, there were dozens of candles, and each one of them signified one person. Each one was for one person.

Only the pillars of the family had these candles dedicated to them. The young masters who were the future of the family, the heads of each division, and the Soul Evolution Stage cultivators. Almost every Xiantian expert also had a candle for them.

And these were not normal candles. They signified the life of the cultivator. If he or she was on death\'s door, then the candle would glow dim. If they were dead, then the candle would extinguish.

The entire family was in an uproar when the three candles in this room suddenly went dim, and after that, the family suddenly locked itself, not going out anymore.

But now, another candle was no longer lit. And this time, the candle was a little more important than the last time. That was because this time, the owner of this candle was the head of an entire division. This was the head of the shadow guards.

The man scrambled. He fell back with fear in his eyes as he turned around.

The others in the room stared at the candle as well, not knowing what to say.

"We have to inform the masters about this! We have to tell the family head!" he said.

"Good. You go then." the second man in the room said.

"Why should I go? I saw it first. My work is done. I don\'t want to be the one to go." the first man shook his head immediately.

No one wanted to be the one to enter the room with bad news. Especially after what happened to the last person who went there to inform the family head of the bad news.

"I don\'t want to go!" the man shook his head vehemently.

"Fine. I\'ll go." the third person in the room sighed and stood up.

"But if I die, then give Bing\'er a few spirit stones and take care of my kids will ya?" he said as he took a deep breath and sighed. He was almost sure that he was going to his death.

He walked out of the room, which was within the family head\'s mansion, and walked to the throne room, where the family head usually spent all of his time.

In a few minutes, he stopped in front of a huge door with two guards on the side.

"Bad news again?" the guard on the right sighed and asked.

"The last few days have been tough for us. Today is no different." the man who came from the room full of candles nodded.

"Who died this time?"

"The head of the shadow guards. I don\'t know how this happened. I thought that the shadow guards were the most powerful faction in the entire family, but it looks like even they are not invincible." the man said.

"It was the head of the shadow guards? We really are too unlucky." the guard on the right nodded.

"Now is not the time to have this discussion. Go in. The elders have been convened. I hope that you will come out alive. Well, with so many elders this time, you should be fine." the guard on the left said as he opened the door.

Calming himself, the man took a deep breath and walked in.

Inside, the hall was completely lit. The thrones on the sides were all full, and the throne at the very front was occupied by the family head.

He looked at the man who came walking in.

"What happened? Why did you come here when the elders have convened?" the family head asked with a deep voice.

"Forgive me, Family Head. But something terrible has happened. The soul lamp of the head of the Shadow Guards has been extinguished." the man said, sweat falling from his face.

In this place, with so many elders here, he was afraid that one of them would be angered by this news, and would show their anger on him.

But something shocking happened.

"I know. Leave us." the family head was sighing? Was this a sign of defeat in this madman that was their family head?

The man did not let this chance go. He ran back the way he came, through the doors, and away from this place. The guards saw him exit and run away, but they didn\'t stop him.

Too many times, they had to clean up the corpses of the people that went in. For once, someone came out alive, so it was best to let him celebrate.

"I wonder why the family head is so benevolent today. I mean, the head of the shadow guards is the only one who is directly under his faction. When that person died, I thought that the entire building would quake in his anger." the guard mused.

"You should focus on your job. If anyone overhears you, then it will be your head, and maybe even mine!" the guard on the left chided his peer.

Inside the throne room, the atmosphere was tense.

"So then. It has been confirmed. We lost another of our Xiantian realm experts. Two peak level Xiantian experts gone in the same city. And this time, this person actually had the chance to enter the Soul Evolution stage!" an elder on one of the lower thrones sighed and said.

"We must band together. Now, there is more than one Soul Evolution Stage expert who has a vengeance over us. And one of the new ones is in the seventh layer of the Soul Evolution stage?" another elder said.

"We need to take care of them one by one. Where are they now?"

"In Kaishi, I think. But they might be coming after us next."
