As he spoke, the Celestial Emperor's face was shrouded with an aura of authority that brooked no defiance, causing Lu Zhanhao's heart to shudder. It seemed that killing this boy was not an easy task, even for him, a War Venerable with countless battle merits.
Consequently, Lu Zhanhao had no choice but to compromise: "Yes!"
"Go!" The Celestial Emperor waved his hand, and Lu Zhanhao left. Then, the Celestial Emperor spoke: "Prepare the writing materials!"
As his voice fell, an elderly eunuch came up holding a tray, which he placed before the Celestial Emperor. After drafting the imperial edict, the Celestial Emperor handed it directly to Di Xin.
Then, the Celestial Emperor said: "Go!"
Di Xin took the edict, her beautiful eyes flickering briefly, and left the courtyard.
Although Di Xin was proud and usually willful, she didn't truly want Xiao Tianyu's life. For her, it didn't matter whether Xiao Tianyu lived or died, as long as he was severely punished to save face.
