Long Yue watched the Imperial Army soldiers, who swirled like a black dragon outside, and then turned to look at Duanmu Nan, her expression complex.
Back at the Zilan Palace, when Yu Pin said those words, she had asked her master if they should leave, but her master had said it wasn't necessary.
Long Yue knew his temperament, cold and aloof. Naturally, he wouldn't want to hide like a mouse; there were some things he preferred to face rather than evade!
"By the command of the Emperor, arrest the criminal Duanmu Nan!"
"Clang clang clang!"
Amidst the metallic tremor, a commander rushed in, shouting loudly.
"General Li, why are you arresting my master?"
The person who arrived was Li Yao, the Left Captain of the Imperial Army. He had been controlled by the Heart-devouring Gu previously, almost betraying the Emperor, but Long Yue had saved him, thus they shared some acquaintance.
