Xue Chen sat in the chair, his eyes slightly lowered, as if he was deep in thought, but he didn't reply to Ming Shu immediately.
Mingshu was stunned for a moment, then raised his voice slightly and asked a second time: "...the leader of the Xuechen Clan?"
Xue Chen's expression changed slightly, and he finally raised his eyes to look at him.
Mingshu didn't dare to look into those silver eyes and immediately lowered his head.
Everyone else sitting in the front hall also looked over.
After a moment, Xuechen nodded and said: "Wait."
There was silence all around.
In fact, everyone has already expected this answer, so it is not surprising.
But Yao Songbai spoke up at this time and broke the silence.
"Clan Leader Xuechen, actually I think we are basically all here now. It doesn't matter if we don't wait. Let's just start. As for Baili Goddess, we don't know how long we have to wait."
In fact, many people want to say this, but they just don’t dare.
There are so many people, but only Yao Songbai can be on an equal footing with Xue Chen, so only he can say this.
Xuechen smiled faintly, his tone calm but insistent: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate. After all, the Mingjian Sect first sought help from Shenfeng Cliff, and now that Baili Goddess has not arrived, it seems that it is inconvenient for us - not to mention
We’ve waited until now, it won’t hurt to wait a little longer, what do you think, Chief Yao?”
Yao Songbai rolled his eyes hugely in his heart.
What do I think?
You have said everything, how can I still have room to refute?
Yao Songbai leaned back in his chair and said: "What the leader of the Xuechen clan said makes sense, then - wait!"
…
Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere in the front hall gradually changed subtly in silence.
Ye Xiyue was the last one to arrive yesterday, but no one thought much about it, but now, she has not arrived yet.
What the hell is going on?
Even if it's just putting on airs, it's not like this.
What's more, before I could explain that it was a long journey and a lot of trouble, so it was too late, but now?
Everyone is in Mingjian Sect!
Everyone came, but Ye Xiyue didn't come. How could this not make people think too much?
Many people have already begun to secretly exchange glances.
Yao Songbai spoke again: "Clan Chief Xuechen, I think your face doesn't look very good. Is everything okay?"
This sound immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Xue Chen. Only then did they realize that the leader of the vampire clan did indeed have a look of tiredness between his brows and eyes.
Xuechen smiled: "Thank you, Chief Yao, I'm just a little tired recently."
Yao Songbai nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Xue Chen closed his eyes, as if he wanted to take a nap.
However, not long after, he suddenly opened his eyes!
There seemed to be a flash of blood in the depths of those silver eyes!
His hand holding the armrest suddenly tightened, veins popped out, and it took a lot of strength to restrain the urge to stand up suddenly.
Then, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, everything had returned to normal.
He stood up.
"I'm sorry, there is a sudden letter from the clan, why don't we send it off tonight -"
Before he finished speaking, a clear and smiling voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Sorry, I'm late."
Xue Chen was shocked and immediately looked up!
Under the moonlight, a slender figure floated up, her skirt was flowing, and her black hair was flying.
It’s Ye Xiyue!
She stepped over the threshold, her red lips slightly curved, and she smiled a little apologetically.
Then, she looked at Xuechen.
"Chief Xuechen, you said before that we have something important to discuss? Then - let's get started."
