"My Esteemed Official Shangguan, please rise. I, too, am deeply saddened and outraged by what has befallen the Shangguan family. However, there are state rules to abide by, and that youth named Chu Feng is formidable indeed. It is with intention yet without power that I yearn to deal with him!"
"If it were a matter of a state oppressing the Shangguan family, then it would be a simple task. I would immediately mobilize troops and extinguish them. But now, the adversary is but a youth, what do you expect me to do?"
The Beixie Emperor showed a troubled expression, but his eyes betrayed a cunning glint.
His manner of speaking was not absolute, leaving no room for discussion.
Shangguan Yun, a creature who had lived for over a thousand years, saw right through the Beixie Emperor's deeper intentions.
He simply wanted to coerce the Shangguan family into paying a corresponding price.
Forget about getting the Beixie Emperor to help the Shangguan family seek revenge without any catch.
