The clattering footsteps halted followed by low pitched groans and a crackling sound like someone was choking. That's because a powerful long tail was protruding from behind the kneeling man.
Its black scales with mesmerizing golden patterns looked dazzling under the light making one want to stroke it. But right now that gorgeous tail was being used as a powerful weapon strangling the neck of the man who dared disturb him.
The man's body was dangling above ground his face red and the veins under the skin of his neck pulsing like they were going to burst with just a little more force.
Despite the distressing sounds coming from behind the Huishe clan leader continued to light up the rest of the candles his expression solemn. It was only after he was done did he let go of the man behind him.
