Liang smiled and returned Han Zhi's greeting. "The honor is mine, Brother Han. I look forward to working alongside all of you."
With the introductions complete, everyone returned to their seats around the low lacquered table. The Go game that had occupied them earlier was temporarily forgotten as their attention shifted to the matter at hand.
Zhuo Li wasted no time getting down to business. His voice carried the authority expected of a senior member, though there was also a hint of excitement in his tone.
"Now that everyone is here, let's discuss the mission. I gathered you all not only to introduce our new members to one another but also to inform you of the date of our gathering."
He paused briefly before continuing.
"In three years, the Starry Sky Alliance will open a portal to the Devil Realm. Before that happens, however, we will meet with their representatives to discuss the mission in greater detail."
Zhuo Li then turned his attention to Gu Hong and Jiang Yan.
