Squeak!
Under the public stare, the door of the Council of Elders was slowly pushed open, and an old man walked out. The old man was expressionless with a shrewd gleam in his eyes. Looking at the public's curious faces, he didn't say anything.
Finally, a young man couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Elders, what happened? Is that young man dead? Should we prepare for his funeral?"
However, no one believed that the young man was still alive, because in their heart if State Preceptor said someone would die, he would surely die.
First Elder didn't say anything. He pressed back against the left side of the doorway, exposing the entire room to the public. In the room, the young man was sitting in a daze, and his eyes were filled with confusion, astonishment, and excitement from the bottom of his heart.
He was not dead...
