Haunted by the limits of his mortality, Liang devises a daring plan to shatter the confines of his destiny and achieve true immortality. But is he genuinely shaping a new destiny, defying the predetermined course of his life? Or is he merely walking a path that fate has already laid out for him? "Which is more ambitious: the heart of a mortal or the will of heaven?" You would probably have to read to find out (^_^)
Liang ascended to a high stone platform at the center of the grand hall, his presence commanding the attention of every expert present. He looked out at the sea of faces before him, a mix of excitement, curiosity, and respect evident in their gazes.
"Wandering Shadow Tavern members," Liang began, his voice projected with authority and confidence. "It's a pleasure to meet you all. Today marks the first step on our road towards hegemony."
The crowd erupted into murmurs and whispers, their excitement rippling through the hall.
Liang raised his hand to signal for silence, his gaze sweeping over the attentive audience. "From this day forward, we shall work together, unite our strengths, and overcome any obstacles that come our way."
With those words, Liang motioned for the gathered members to disperse, their excitement palpable as they hurriedly made their way out of the grand hall.
