The Prince and the Old man looked around in fear, but they couldn't see who was speaking.
The Old man wanted to call for support, but then the voice came again.
"Calm down, there's no point in you shouting, it's not going to change anything. Do you think I'm someone who's afraid of those guys in here?"
The Old man was frightened, he knew the conversation he was having with the prince wasn't ideal, and it wasn't anything anyone else should hear. His entire family didn't know what he was up to, well, a few are aware, but not everyone. He has had this thought for a long time now, and after the Emperor took most of the top experts in the world into the God's tomb, he decided it was the perfect time to execute his plan.
The death of the Sixth and Third Prince made things easier for them since the number of people they needed to get out of the way reduced, but he didn't think anyone would find out even with how careful he was.
