Inside the only room on the topmost floor of the sword tower, Jiu Shen sat on his chair with a calm look on his face. Lying peacefully on his embrace was a little girl with short white hair. She had a wide smile on her face, a clear evidence that she was having a good dream.
Behind the two of them was a tall young lady with long purple hair. She was looking at the man in front of her with respect and admiration.
"I'm again one step closer to my goal..." Jiu Shen muttered under his breath. His indifferent eyes flashed intensely for a moment.
This wasn't the first time that Long Meili heard her master speak about this goal of his, but she always tactfully chose to remain silent during these moments. She knew that Jiu Shen had his reasons for suddenly establishing a sect after living an idle life inside his store. As Jiu Shen's subordinate, she would always remain at his side, ready to do his bidding...
"Knock. Knock. Knock."
