"Father!"
After entering the hall, Fan Di found that only one person was present in the main hall of the Night Demon Clan's delegation. He recognized him at a glance—his father, Lord Di Sen.
"You're here?" The tall and handsome Night Demon looked very much like Fan Di, though his features were somewhat more gorgeous, carrying a few traces of the alluring aura of the Darkness Department.
"Is it really Grandpa...?" Fan Di glanced around the eerily silent hall. Unable to suppress his doubts and grief any longer, he finally asked.
The Night Demon Clan had come to Gnomeregan both to attend the opening ceremony of Bronze Academy and to discuss the alliance. Naturally, Lord Di Sen could not have come alone. Yet the hall was empty, which clearly meant the seniors of the other clans had deliberately left them some private space.
"You don't need to look at me like that." Di Sen gave his son a bitter smile. "Your father still can't accept it either, but there's nothing we can do. Facts are facts. The clan has already recovered your grandfather's star core. Our family's strongest Secret Sword has indeed fallen!"
After receiving a definite answer, Fan Di staggered backward!
"Your grandfather risked his life to test that everything the Little Celestial God displayed wasn't a bluff." Before Fan Di could recover from his grief, Di Sen continued, "Someone who can associate with Iluvatar isn't someone we can exploit casually. The higher-ups have decided to temporarily abandon the line connected to Ye Na. As for the mission involving that girl from the He Lan Family, our Na Ye Clan has already done everything we could. If they still want to do something, it has nothing to do with us."
"But..." Fan Di stared at his father in shock.
