"Unless this kid's contributions to the Great Xuan and the Northern Garrison Command surpass my own, I won't accept it! Worst-case scenario, I'll take this straight to the Northern Garrison Command! I'll ask Commander Li to pass judgment, I'll even ask the head of the Prefecture Bureau himself to weigh in!"
Li Lin gritted his teeth, his face flushed a deep red. Rage surged in his chest. With his future on the line, he chose to confront Gu Baichuan head-on.
He even went so far as to name his backer—a Prefecture Commander in the Northern Garrison Command, and a Leakless Level master at that.
'I'm telling you, don't think you can just walk all over me. We should both take a step back, or this will get ugly for everyone!'
He stood tensely before the coffin, his words tumbling out in a rapid, incessant argument.
However—
BANG!
"It's no use even if you appeal to the Celestial King!"
