"Don't mind what the others said. They've just been disappointed recently so they find it hard to trust people." The Family Head sighed, before gesturing all the Elders to sit down and to not intervene.
Gabriel also stopped, turning back to the Family Head. As long as these people weren't really going too far, he didn't mind working with them. In any case, he was also curious about this Shadow Garden that many powerful clans in the Upper World were interested in.
"Every five years, the shadow garden opens. And every major clan sends people inside the Shadow Garden. We also do the same. However, throughout the years, we've always been failing to even get to the inner area, let alone reaching the core." The middle aged man on the main seat sighed.
As he mentioned, the other Elders also showed frustrated expressions. This had been the great shame of their clan.
