"Yes, Grandfather!" Silvermoon opened her mouth a few times, finally swallowing back the words she originally intended to say.
Just as Ancestral Patriarch Ao Xiao was about to say more to his granddaughter, he suddenly turned his head, his eyes focused on the door.
A moment later, footsteps echoed, and a young maid appeared at the entrance, speaking respectfully.
"Reporting to my lord, two elders of this island seek an audience from outside!"
"Oh, they moved rather quickly. Let them come in." Ancestral Patriarch Ao Xiao's expression relaxed, and he nodded with instructions.
The maid naturally accepted the order with a sound and went outside again.
After a short while, a man surnamed Xu and an elder with white hair walked in from outside, and upon seeing Ancestral Patriarch Ao Xiao, they immediately stepped forward to pay their respects.
"Greetings, Senior. May we ask what matter Senior has summoned us for?" the fair-faced man asked solemnly.
