When the five Grade 5 War Generals from the Nie family heard the old man's words, they froze in the same spot.
As a member of the Nie family, they knew very well the underlying meaning in the old man's words.
Although it was good that they could avoid the death sentence, the punishment meted out by the Nie family to those members who did not complete their missions or fail in their missions could be a lot worse than death.
When they recalled the methods the family used to punish those who failed in their missions, the five fellows broke out in cold sweat.
Looking at the trembling bodies of the five people, their forehead covered densely with sweat, the old man said indifferently, "If the five of you don't want to be punished, it's not impossible, but, well…"
As the old man's voice trailed off, he gave the five people a rather meaningful look.
