The Luli Seven Saints stood there, stunned.
Seeing Sect Master Shangguan Hong with a blank gaze and a face full of excitement, they were at a loss for a moment.
Shangguan Hong, a formidable figure of his era, had led the Luli Sect for many years, seen much of the world, and weathered great storms. He had always been as unmovable as a mountain, no matter the circumstance.
But now, his eyes were reddened with excitement, nearly brimming with tears.
What on earth had happened?
Even Shangguan Linghui felt it strange; her father had always been dignified, never showing his emotions openly. What had gotten into him today?
Just as the Luli Sect was lost in confusion—
Shangguan Hong fell to his knees with a thud.
Bang!
His forehead touched the ground as he reverently said, "Shangguan Hong pays respect to the Ice God!"
Ice God?!
His Highness the Ice God?!
What the devil?
