Iron Sword Sect, Sect Leader's Hall.
Lan Tiejiang sat upright on the armchair. He was now over seventy years old.
Five years had passed, and time had left a thick trace of age on his face.
There were more wrinkles on his face, and there were many white hairs in his hair.
His eyes were no longer as intimidating as before, and instead, there was a hint of murkiness mixed within.
He was old!
He looked like a doddering old man.
Even if his internal strength was deep, it could not stop the fact that he was entering his later years.
"Master, according to reliable sources, Bai Zhirou will make things difficult for you on your seventieth birthday in seven days.”
A youth bowed towards Lan Tiejiang.
"Ha!"
"This Bai girl is really restless. It seems that she can't wait for this old man to die.”
"But speaking of which, this old master has underestimated this girl. I didn't expect that in a short five years, she would actually be able to grow to such an extent.”
Lan Tiejiang said in an old voice. He did not have any surprise on his face.
Obviously.
Five years passed.
Bai Zhirou's transformation was all seen by Lan Tiejiang. He had long expected this day to come.
" Master, it's not that I'm trying to boost others 'morale and diminish my own prestige. In recent years, not only has Bai Zhirou's cultivation soared, but she has also roped in many elders and disciples. I'm afraid..."
Before his personal disciple could continue, Lan Tiejiang waved his hand and interrupted him.
"This Bai girl has indeed made me look at her in a new light. However, she is still a little too inexperienced. The pugilistic world is not about fighting and killing, but the ways of the world. How much does this Bai girl know?”
"Don't worry about her. I know what to do.”
Lan Tiejiang spoke in an aged manner, as if he did not take Bai Zhirou's intention to make things difficult for him to heart.
"Master has a pearl of wisdom in his grasp. It's this disciple who is stupid.”
The young man hurriedly flattered.
"Don't worry about the Bai girl. I've asked you to look for clues about Chen 'er's disappearance these few years. Have you made any progress?”
Lan Tiejiang spoke again.
However, this time, his old face was twitching non-stop. He could not control his emotions at all, and the hatred in his eyes was even more condensed.
The pain of losing a son is like a fishbone in the throat.
Lan Tiejiang had been the sect master for five years. It could be said that he had a high position and great power. Power was really boring to him.
However, every time he thought of his beloved son who had disappeared into thin air, he would wake up in a nightmare at night.
Five years passed.
He would always dream of his beloved son's bloody death, and his eyes would bleed as he sobbed at him.
The pain of losing his son was like thousands of ants biting his heart. It made Lan Tiejiang sleepless day and night. He only wanted to find the murderer of Lan Chen and tear him into pieces. Only by eating his flesh and drinking his blood could he eliminate the depression and hatred in his heart.
Lan Tiejiang knew that he was old.
He could feel that his body was getting worse and worse, and he only had ten years to live at most.
He no longer had any desire for power.
His only wish was to find the murderer of his son before he died.
Otherwise, he would really die with regrets!
……
Looking at his master Lan Tiejiang's face full of hatred that seemed to have solidified, and the corner of his mouth that was twitching because of the hatred, this disciple shuddered all over. A hint of fear and nervousness appeared in his eyes.
Plop!
This person directly knelt down and kowtowed to Lan Tiejiang.
"Disciple is useless. After investigating for five years, there are still no clues.”
"I've let Master down, and I've let Senior Brother Lan down even more.”
This person kowtowed like pounding garlic, almost crying, and his face showed extreme shame.
"No clues at all?"
"Then what use do I have for you?"
"Ah?"
Bang!
Lan Tiejiang's turbid and aged eyes were as red as blood. With a bang, he slammed the table, and the huge wooden table directly shattered into pieces. This also scared this disciple so much that his entire body kept trembling.
In the past five years, Lan Tiejiang had been searching for clues about Blue Dawn's disappearance, but he had never obtained any useful information.
In the beginning, Lan Tiejiang was still able to control his emotions slightly.
However, as he aged year by year, his mood became more and more anxious, and his entire person fell into a crazy obsession.
"Disciple is useless, disciple is useless. Please punish me, Master.”
The young man kowtowed repeatedly to apologize, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.
He was really afraid that Lan Tiejiang would kill him on the spot in a fit of anger.
"Get lost, get lost for this old man."
Lan Tiejiang's eyes were bloodshot as he roared hysterically.
This also made this person hurriedly flee from the Sect Leader's Hall, afraid that Lan Tiejiang would lose his life in his rage.
As the disciple fled.
Lan Tiejiang's old body was trembling uncontrollably because of the hatred in his heart.
He hated it!
His hatred was higher than the sky.
However, they could not find the murderer of their beloved son.
The other party was like an invisible person, filling him with hatred but unable to vent it.
This kind of extremely aggrieved feeling really almost drove Lan Tiejiang crazy!
