How much does he hate him, to actually bring him to such a plight!
"Huff!"
He took a deep breath, and his strength finally returned, allowing him to stand up, albeit shakily.
Such a commotion had ensued that nearly every guard at the Imperial Tomb was aware of what had happened; there was no chance of keeping it a secret.
But he was not willing to accept this, having served the Emperor for many years, guarding this Imperial Tomb without the chance to reunite with his own family. And now, because of him, was he to let his family pay with their lives?
No, he could not let his family die for him. Even if it meant conveying news of the Imperial Tomb to the Emperor, he had to make arrangements for his family to escape beforehand.
He could no longer allow his family to stay in Ziyan Kingdom.
"Immediately tally up the damages within the Imperial Tomb. I need to report to the Emperor," he ordered the Tomb Guards.
"Yes, General."
