"His name is Zhou Liang," Li Qian said, his voice laced with frustration. "He's aligned with Chen Deshui, the third elder who's becoming quite powerful within the clan."
Rain's eyes darkened.
Chen Deshui. Him again? How much more does this man want from us?
Li Qian clenched his fists. "That man… when your father was alive, he followed him without question. But the moment your father passed, Deshui turned his back on us, faster than anyone. Over the years, he's used underhanded methods to take over much of our family's assets."
He paused.
"And now, he's after our last piece of spiritual land. It's like he wants to destroy us completely."
Rain's hands tightened into fists. His knuckles turned white as anger boiled inside him.
Chen Deshui… how long can I let this go on?
"Sooner or later," Rain muttered, his voice barely above a whisper, "I'll make them pay for this. Everything they took… I'll make them give it back with interest."
