He was tall and erect, with handsome features, yet he exuded an aloof arrogance and coldness that looked down upon all beneath heaven. His long silver hair draped loosely over his shoulders like flowing moonlight.

Gu Que paused before continuing, "Release the elder of my clan and the two elders of the Northern Nether Kunpeng Clan. For the sake of you taking one of my moves, I won't stoop to bullying the young today. I can spare your life."
