The robed elder looked at the bloodied Lu Kai in front of him and burst into laughter, his grin somewhat gruesome, "Kid, you've got quite the nerve, thinking of chopping me up to feed to the dogs? With you in your current state?" His voice was filled with mockery.
Lu Kai's eyes bloodshot, he gazed at the other man and said coldly, "He Hui, you mangy cur, you'd better kill me now!"
The robed elder He Hui chuckled, "Don't worry, tomorrow we will take you to the Imperial City Main Gate Square for beheading! This is your last night, so savor the night sky while you can." Saying this, he looked towards the window and smiled, "The night sky isn't too bad tonight."
Faint moonlight shone through the prison cell's iron bars, illuminating the ground, casting a hazy glow.
Just then, the prison cell door was opened, and a young man clad in a dragon robe walked in, followed by four Imperial Palace Guards.
This young man bore some resemblance to Lu Kai.
