Chapter 379: Dragon Striving
Deep within Dragon Hall, in a quiet chamber.
The interior furnishings were simple and ancient, the lighting somewhat dim.
Behind a wide rosewood desk sat an elderly man.
The elder had a gaunt frame, wide sleeves on his robe, hands folded and placed on his knees, the skin on the backs of his hands loose with visible light brown age spots.
His hair was sparse, nearly all white, bound behind his head with the simplest wooden hairpin.
He was the current Hall Master of Dragon Hall, Bai Yue.
A resounding name in the Eight Dao lands, and indeed throughout all of Yan Kingdom's southwest.
Decades ago, he was already one of Lingxiao Upper Sect's numbered experts. Since taking control of Dragon Hall, his methods had been fierce and his tactics superb. He had forcefully managed Dragon Hall to flourish even when Tiger Hall once held the advantage, suppressing Tiger Hall until they couldn't breathe.
