The middle-aged man nodded with a good-natured smile, "It is good to see that you all still haven't slowed down in your cultivation."
All six of the individuals sitting in front of him lowered their heads at once with expressions of reverence, respect, and awe, "Juniors thank Lord Emperor for his kind words," they spoke in complete unison, almost as if practiced a hundred times before.
The 'Lord Emperor' chuckled and waved his hand, "Don't stand on ceremony so much. It has been centuries since I last got to see your faces, let's not let formality ruin it, relax."
"Yes, Lord Emperor!" all of them replied once again like programmed robots, making the Lord Emperor let out a helpless sigh.
"You people are too tight. I told you to just call me Izak," he grumbled and laid back down on his chair.
