The letter said
" My Lord, the empire was suddenly attacked by the Exiler empire's assassin guild. We were trying to rescue ourselves and the princess to the safest place but suddenly we lost track of the princess. And in this war type situation knights were killed by enemies, royal knights arrived for aid very late. Princess is nowhere to be found! I apologise for being responsible for such a loss!"
Zhong clenched the letter in rage. How can this happen? He clearly finished all the assassins guild last night and about entering the borders of the Tianxian empire. Also this letter sounded like Yu Yan is no more in this world. How naive!
He can still feel her soul's presence, if she should have died he would have been freed from the contract with the empire and burnt down the whole mortal world in his wrath of anger.
