Soon, Lu Xiao's gaze fell upon the elders of the Recruitment Hall.
The five of them, upon meeting Lu Xiao's eyes, instantly dropped to their knees with loud thuds.
"Junior Sect Leader, please calm your anger; we didn't know it was you."
"Yes, Junior Sect Leader, ignorance is not a crime."
"Please consider our years of diligent service to the Xuanyuan Tomb and forgive our previous disrespect to you!"
The few men shouted loudly, begging for mercy.
"So, you still don't understand where you went wrong, huh?" Lu Xiao sneered.
Even in begging for mercy, you can't seem to get it right.
You still have the nerve to tell me 'ignorance is not a crime,' and ask forgiveness for your disrespect? Is that what has made me angry?
"Recruitment Hall, responsible for the selection and recruitment of Xuanyuan Tomb disciples."
"Shouldn't it be fair and just?" Lu Xiao asked.
The five nodded simultaneously: "Of course, this is the requirement from the ancestors, and we strive to uphold it."
