Impatient Hong Chen

Vermilion Imperial Sect

A man wearing a crimson robe with a Vermilion bird pattern on the back was sitting leisurely at his chair while reading a scroll, as he enjoyed a cup of herbal tea. Suddenly, he was surprised by the arrival of a woman with waist-length black hair, moreover she seemed to be in a hurry. He then asked the woman. "Why are you in such a hurry, Elder Meng Yao?"

*BAMM*

"What!?" Ding Yuan exclaimed in shock, as he abruptly rose from his seat, and his chair was thrown backwards. Then he took the broken jade, and asked in disbelief. "What did you just say, Elder Meng? Is this really Master Hong Li's life jade?"
