Tang Yan felt relieved, as he had never intended to take away anyone's life or opportunity. His soul power was drained, and his body, which had once brimmed with energy, now felt dull. His eyes lacked the bright luster they had before. Du Zhiquan, with a superior demeanor, stood up to address the whole family present.
"Although the maid who was buried brought about her own demise, let us not mourn or fear," he said. "Our Du family are warriors with strong hearts and great minds, which is why we have risen to the position of power we hold today." He paused, giving an eye signal to one of the guards beside him, who nodded and left.
"We are gathered here today to celebrate the return of two talents who will elevate the status of the Du family," Du Zhiquan said with a smile. He waved at the two Tang siblings to come and stand beside him, and they did. He then asked them to introduce themselves individually.
