Chen Lin Village, Blue Heart Mountain, Ancestral Hall side hall
Incense curled through the bluestone-paved side hall.
Chen Xun sat upright in the seat of honor, a great redwood chair, his gaze sweeping over the ten people below like cold lightning.
The ten wore different clothes—some in tight, short fighting gear, others in long robes and cloth shoes. The only thing they shared was an inconspicuous yet edge-concealing insignia pinned to their chests or cuffs—the Chen Family Seven Kill Sword.
"Are your destinations clear?" Chen Xun said flatly.
The ten bowed in unison, their voices ringing like clashing metal and stone. "Clan Leader, we understand!"
"Good." Chen Xun gave a slight nod, his fingertip tapping lightly on the armrest. "Then set out at once. Lead your teams to Heaven Dou City."
"Yes! We take our leave!" The ten bowed again and filed out of the side hall, their steps steady, their backs swiftly disappearing beyond the hall.
On this trip to Heaven Dou, seven of them were headed to the underground Iron Jaw Fortress.
Du Gu Han (Level 72 Soul Saint): Du Gu Fu's second uncle and Dugu Lin's second son, he would serve as Zuo Jinhua's deputy. The Underground World was damp, miasmic, deep, twisting, and riddled with killing intent—an ideal battlefield for his martial soul, the Azure Scaled Serpent!
In that kind of underground environment, the Azure Scaled Serpent's perception of the air was even sharper, and his poison was enough to become the nightmare of the underground forces. His assignment was also clear proof that the bond between the Dugu Family and the Chen Family had deepened another step.
