Surviving the pagoda! 2

"Huo Li...my dear daughter," he reached out to hold her hand but she moved back.

"Father...what are you doing here?" she questioned with confusion and doubt on her face but the hate and anger burning in her eyes upon setting her eyes on him fanned trouble.

Outside the pagoda, the sect madam who was already getting impatient decided to go in, she took one step forward but the first elder held her hand back.

"Sect madam," all eyes turned to her.

"You mustn't do this," he warned

"Mother, what are you doing?" they all understood the situation and they had already expected it, they had already been waiting for a long time and now the sun is about to set but she still isn't out, her mother would never forgive herself if she disappears.

"I need to go in, I shouldn't have sent her in," she responded then she tried to snap her hand out of the first elder grip but he still held her back.
