In the hall, the lights shone brightly.
A few tables were filled with various delicacies, the aroma of fine wine wafted, and the sect's senior members, backbone, and elite were all present.
Before Carson Flores even reached the entrance of the hall, a welcoming disciple called out from afar, "Sect Master is here!"
"Whoosh!"
Everyone who had been seated stood up simultaneously, including the Deputy Sect Master, the various Hall Masters, and Deputy Hall Masters at the foremost table. They all walked to the hall entrance to greet Carson Flores.
When they saw Carson Flores, they all paused slightly.
They had counted Carson Flores' family in their invitation, although there hadn't been much contact in the past few years, they vaguely sensed this family's significant strength.
Inviting the Sect Master naturally includes the Sect Master's family, yet why did Carson Flores come alone, smiling and waving his hands?
Where are the others?
"Sect Master!"
