Lan Bing glanced at Black Shadow, who was sitting beside her. Seeing that Black Shadow had nothing to ask, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "Councilor Hou, how many years have you worked in Heaven's Pulse City?"
Hearing Lan Bing's question, Councilor Hou slowly replied, "Thirteen years."
Lan Bing nodded and coldly said, "That coincides perfectly with the Golden Sparrow Flower incident, doesn't it?"
Hearing Lan Bing's leading tone, Councilor Hou's face became even more sullen. He said in a deep voice, "I dare say I've been faithful to the federation, to Xida State! Every promotion I've earned has come from my diligent work, my accumulated achievements, without any aid from some semi-divine power!"
"Although I have many faults and public opinion of me isn't great, you can question my morals, my character, but you cannot question my ability, my loyalty!"
