The Devilish Shadow Lord

An eerie silence was filling the large hall. 

The 'guests' couldn't help but feel cold on top of it, as an oppressive aura spread.

~Creak~

The sound of a chair being pushed was heard, and the silhouette behind the wooden screen stop up.

"Welcome, my guests. I heard, you've been desiring to meet me." A man's voice could be heard.

The voice was a mix of enticing while also being unnerving at the same time.

The weaker guests were too scared to speak anything, so the elders decided to take the lead.

"Thank you for granting us this meeting. I am Lord Cao." An elder introduced himself.

This was the same lord Cao who was once in a cooperative relationship with Ji Xiaolian, the elder sister of Ji Shirong. 

"Ah, yes. Lord Cao, I know of you." The man's voice was heard again and his steps drew closer.

~THUD~

Finally, the silhouette reached the wooden screen and opened its doors.
