Inside the Dugu Family's grand hall, Dugu Fengyun paced restlessly, hands clasped behind his back, his face etched with anxiety.
Xu Xiuping was equally unsettled, worried about whether her husband could return home safely.
Dugu Nian and Fang Lin were also present, but both were comparatively composed, unlike the others who were noticeably tense and anxious.
"I can't take it anymore, I should make a trip to Xuan City," Dugu Fengyun declared to those around him, no longer able to contain himself.
"Grandfather, please remain calm," said Dugu Nian gently.
Dugu Fengyun clenched his fists: "Your father and your cousin's life and death are uncertain, how can I sit still?"
Dugu Nian gave a slight smile: "It's okay, father and cousin will surely come back safely."
Dugu Fengyun was about to speak again when suddenly, something flew into the hall and rolled to a stop before everyone's eyes.
