Ning Fengzhi's sudden move left the experts and stewards of the other sects present at a loss.
To surrender—
Was there really any need to be this exaggerated?
To be honest, they too had considered throwing in their lot with the Red Assembly, but Ning Fengzhi had suddenly lowered the bar far too much!
What was he trying to do?
