Alchemy Peak.
In a dimly lit room with just some candles, men in masks knelt before Tan Fei, who sat on a chair in front of them.
Tan Fei sipped tea from his teacup.
He savored the tea and looked down at the men waiting for his instructions.
He put down his teacup and asked, "Has contact been made with the Storm Fist Thunder sect?"
"Yes, Lord Tan. Our messenger is already on his way," the masked man nearest to him replied.
Tan Fei nodded.
He would wait for their reply and execute his plans accordingly.
"Be prepared to execute the plan. The time should be near," Tan Fei said.
"Yes, Lord Tan. We are ready to lay down our lives for the Tan family," all the men replied in unison.
"Good. Remember, your families will be taken care of if anything happens to you."
Tan Fei stood up, turned, and left.
The masked men followed suit, returning to their respective places in the sect.
