That night, as I walked through the sect's gardens, I sensed a presence watching me. I turned to see Master Lei standing in the shadows, his eyes fixed on me."Master Lei, what are you doing out here?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady. He stepped forward, his movements eerily silent."I'm just keeping an eye on things, Master Xiao. You have a talented group of disciples. I wouldn't want anything to happen to them." His words sent a shiver down my spine. What did he know that I didn't?
