Long Tao didn't manage to process the events for some time. "could you please repeat what you just said, princess?". Jiao Mingue could understand the reason for Long Tao's behavior. This was an even greater shock for her, but she couldn't bear to give up on the royal throne at the moment. "The king has been found dead in his chambers, with a knife sticking from his chest, lying on a blood pool. The assassination was carried out in cold blood, and managed to get the king while he was unconscious."
Long Tao took some time to digest the news. The king was found dead. He just confronted an assassin group leader who was as powerful as the king himself. But just now, someone managed to kill the king. It means someone who is at least as powerful as Qi master level 5. This was no joke. The plan of assassination seemed to be very elaborate. They actually managed to catch Jiao Sheng in his sleep.
