Everyone was filled with despair. As the head of the family, Mi Quebi made the final decision: "This is all we can do. One person will leave every day. Whether you make it out alive will depend on fate."
Silence fell over the room. The communication jade had been activated hundreds of times, yet Mi Lan still could not be reached. While they could get through to Beilin City, even the people there had no idea where Mi Lan was.
Mi Quebi stood up, his gaze sweeping over the members of the Mi Family. His eyes lingered for a moment on Mi Shui, Mi Shan, and Lin Yan before finally coming to rest on Zhou Xuanzhen. With a bitter smile, he said, "Elder Zhou is not technically a member of the Mi Family, but over the years you have protected us and taught our younger generation with utmost dedication. I am deeply grateful. Today, you shall be the one to leave."
