Chapter 50: Elders' Council: Plans and Preparations

"I've just received word from my spies observing the Qian clan's champ that the young blossom of that scoundrel Qian Huang has just arrived," Grand Elder Chuanli, a man known for his cunning, announced with a sly grin spreading across his weathered face. "It would be quite advantageous if we could manage to eliminate her; it would surely strike a heavy blow to Qian Huang."

"But are you certain this plan will succeed? We've attempted to harm the girl on numerous occasions before, only for that wretch Qian Huang to intervene each time," another elder voiced his concerns.

"Indeed, even if we were to launch a joint attack, the Qian clan still boasts formidable powers," chimed in yet another elder. "The strengths of both our clans are evenly matched, so expecting to overpower them with our current forces alone is nothing short of wishful thinking."
