Chapter 253: Life 73, Age 48, Martial Grandmaster Peak
As soon as I returned to Mount Jiang, before waking YuanFei and his entourage up and getting them settled, I called an emergency meeting of my leadership council. After adding 76 new Disciples from this year’s training camp, adding over a hundred more was bound to cause headaches, but I was confident that my team would be able to handle it.
Once everyone was assembled, I addressed the room.
“I told you previously that another batch of recruits would likely be joining us soon. Well, they’re here, and we need to deal with them.”
Most of the people around the table showed little reaction to this news, but GuiMing slumped in his seat.
ShouLi took a calming breath and then faced me.
“How many?”
“A bit over a hundred in total… Twelve of them are Grandmasters, and they are led by YuanFei, the eldest son of the former Patriarch of the Su Clan.”
ShouLi was stunned speechless, but opposite her, on my left, Liang was a bit more animated.
“Patriarch, you can’t keep doing this! The group you brought last time was trouble enough. Their Disciples didn’t want to accept the enforcers’ judgments since they were ‘under Elder TaiZu’s protection.’ We finally got them in line, but that was just a small group, and we were only able to do so because we had the elder supporting us. If one of these new Grandmasters refuses to listen to an enforcer, we won’t be able to control them.”
