But now, the Thunder Emperor had mercilessly ripped away this final fig leaf, forcing him to confront the bloody reality...
Qi Chongshan's heart sank to rock bottom.
'It's been two days, and Gu Yuexi and her team still haven't come out. Could... could it be true, just like the Thunder Emperor said? Have they... have they already met with disaster?'
Zhang Chengye and the others nearby also turned deathly pale, a chill running through their bodies.
'If Gu Yuexi really died in Du Nan, every last one of them would be finished!'
Seeing Qi Chongshan's distraught expression, a flicker of contempt flashed in the Thunder Emperor's eyes.
'He'd stop at nothing just to protect his position!'
'A petty man like him is fit to rule?'
"When did that little girl go in?" the Thunder Emperor asked coldly.
"T-two... two days ago..."
"...Then she's most likely dead." The Thunder Emperor's expression darkened as he made his judgment almost instantly.
