Official Zong felt listless looking at the interactions Between his illegitimate Son Zong Shen and Shi Xiaoya, out of nowhere a few years back Zong Shen came as an Owner of the world that was supposed to be under the direct Jurisdiction of Authority Lu Man Man, then his rights of command on her army of followers. Zong Shen's presence became so important that he has no choice but to bow his head at his illegitimate son, just the thought of it made him feel like his insides were twisted,
Official Zong grunted loudly before turning to the officials who were turned into a matter of joke by Official Fei and Official Fang, Zong Shen paid no heed to his behavior, he is patiently waiting for these Officials to bring up the topic he came for.
Official Gong faked his cough to stop the ongoing accusation of the rumors on the seal to bring the main agenda they gathered for. Official Zun in response to the abrupt halt in discussion pulled out 2 palm-sized jade bottles, except for t Zong Shen and Shi Xiaoya everyone's eyes shone in utter brilliance at the jade bottles.
Zong Shen narrowed his eyes at Official Zun "what's the meaning of this Official Zun?!"
"ohh please relax Master Zong, I promised to give you these jade bottles and I am certain of fulfilling it apart from that I never promised not to give these to you in front of everyone"
Official Zun's eyes shone looking at Zong Shen's frustration. he did promise to give the jade bottles but not without any witness to trap him with them.
This bastard brat came back as the owner and chief of the world their experiments turned fruitfully, as soon as Zong Shen found the state of his world is, he immediately took the matters in his hand and resolved more than half the troubles they created painstakingly from years in no time.
Official Zun Squinted his eyes in a smile as letting the officials around him pass the Jade bottles to Zong Shen one by one, then he stood up and said with a proud tone "you are one of us why bother the formalities, Master Zong"
Zong Shen coldly looked at the jade bottles in front of him, by Official Zun's implication if he were to accept them then he would be one of them, one of the Traitors that went against the Authority of Heaven but if he chooses to not take them his people in danger can't be saved,
His power and his people were Questioned alongside, he had to choose an option, that makes an indirect implication of his Authority, other Officials along with Official Zon's eyes were radiating the aura of menace on him as they were adamant about forcing him to choose the option in their favor,
Zong Shen obvious to the pressure they were excruciating glanced towards Shi Xiaoya, instructing her to take the bottles nodding her head Shi Xiaoya took the jade bottles before pulling a piece of cloth from her storage ring she cleaned the bottles in front of everyone and handed it over to Zong Shen then burned the piece of cloth she used just now to clean the bottles.
The Officials who were looking at their series of actions rose suddenly making a fuss scolding Zong Shen for abusing his power. Zong Shen laughed loudly, loud enough to halt all the Official's ruckus as they looked at him speechless Zong Shen stood up with Shi Xiaoya in tow he released his aura frightening all of them he spoke coldly,
"Abusing the power? HUH?! from centuries that's what you are doing to the lord and to the people who looked up to you people, if you all feel so sorry then don't bother asking for help on covering your tracks on the evidence of abuse you all had done" with that, he huffed loudly leaving the room.
All of their faces turned into a deep shade of embarrassment, Official Gong roared at Official Zong "Official Zong keep your son in control!!"
Official Zong mocked him saying "since when did we start paying attention to the bastards we created"
Other Officials started ridiculing him with our anger toward Zong Shen which is now directed at him, Official Fang interrupted them "enough the date of summoning is approaching all the wild beasts were in perfect reach for us to proceed further in our plan. Bai Qiuran and his daughter should die as our chess pieces to the last"
His voice loud and stern resonated throughout the inner walls of the room they gathered sending cold shivers to other Officials.
Official Zun "we can't afford to make any mistakes at this point, I advise every one of you to be extra cautious while proceeding with the plan, better don't forget that I have eyes on every one of you"
his voice of distrust made the realize the death of officials who died in Lu Tao Yan's at their plan on the last summoning.
