The elders' breathing seemed to have grown faint as if they were making an important decision.
After a long pause, someone finally spoke up amongst the crowd.
"I believe that what Elder Long Xin said makes sense. Doing this doesn't mean that we are traitors to the Dragon Clan. We will be betraying the Clan Leader at most! If we do succeed in solving the Dragon Clan's reproductive issues, perhaps the entire Dragon Clan will consider us their benefactors. Hence, I'm willing to listen to Elder Long Xin's orders."
The elder who had made that remark looked stern and righteous as if what he was doing was exceptionally honorable.
Long Xin raised the corner of his lips and smiled complacently. He had long been able to guess how these people would react.
