Transition

Murong Yan was surprised to hear this from me.

She turned to look at me with narrowed eyes, almost as if she thought that she had been betrayed, but she gave a nod in the end as she wanted to see what I would say.

With another cough, I said, "Ke, mother in law, don't you feel that it would be a shame if you suddenly quit as the elder?"

Everyone looked at me with surprised looks when they heard this as if they couldn't believe what I had been saying.

The one that was the most surprised was Liu Han since he never thought that I would back him up like this.

After a long moment of silence, Murong Yan narrowed her eyes even more to say, "Are you sure that you want to say this? There isn't anything else that you want to say?"

I gave another awkward cough before saying, "I think that it's a shame if you were to suddenly quit as an elder of this sect since it means giving up everything that you've worked for over these years."
