Chapter 173: The Murong Family's Shock
The moment those words fell, the voices in the council hall all died at once, and every face turned toward Murong Hong.
It was widely known within the Murong family that two elderly patriarchs of extraordinary martial Dao cultivation still resided within the family, and that their presence was in no small part the reason the Murong family remained Sheng Province's foremost martial arts lineage.
With the family's survival now hanging in the balance, the time to call on the two old patriarchs was clearly at hand.
Hearing this, Murong Hong swept his gaze over everyone present, his expression turning contemplative.
And just at that moment, a blurred figure flashed in through the council hall's entrance and came to a stop before Murong Hong.
The man wasted no time with pleasantries and immediately made his report in a low, urgent voice, saying, "Master, Bai Changfeng is dead."
The moment those words fell, the only sound left in the entire hall was that man's voice still echoing.
Everyone who had been looking toward Murong Hong froze simultaneously.
Very shortly, as the news sank in, the hall erupted into an uproar among the gathered Murong family members.
