The City Lord's Mansion was enveloped in a still-lingering blood mist, the atmosphere incredibly heavy. Outside the main hall, it was deserted; only inside stood six figures. These six were Li Ru, Zhang Jiao, Sima Yi, the Clan Leader of the Bai Family, Bai Peichu, Bai Xue, and Bai Shuang!
"Clan Leader Bai, it's time for you to make a choice!" Li Ru sat in the main seat with a pill beside him, emanating a black glow.
Bai Peichu remained silent, his expression exceptionally troubled. The events of this day had been a massive blow to him. The great elder Bai Wandou's betrayal had nearly sent him to Yellow Spring.
After that, Li Ru and his companions forcefully quelled the rebellion. Just when Bai Peichu was silently rejoicing, he was informed that he would have to join a mysterious organization specializing in intelligence gathering.
"Father, if it weren't for Lord Li, we would be dead. It's better to live poorly than to die well. Just take the pill!" Bai Xue weakly persuaded.
