"Idiot!"
The cloaked figure cursed upon hearing his words.
That idiot really was disobedient, daring to defy the master's wishes—then he deserved to never return!
"I warn you, if you dare harm Sui Zimo again, I will send you to pave his way in hell first!"
His sinister gaze rested on the emperor as he spoke in a haunting tone.
The emperor was genuinely frightened by the cloaked figure's words, shrinking his neck and daring not to say a word.
Yet, in his heart, he felt quite indignant; after all, he hadn't done anything and had simply followed the previous cloaked figure's orders to strike at Sui Zimo when he was on his way to the border for a marriage alliance.
But now, in front of this cloaked figure, things seemed to have changed.
What on earth was going on!
"I... I dare not," said the emperor.
He knew that now was not the time to voice the doubts in his heart, so he quickly nodded, indicating that he would obey.
"Hmph!"
The cloaked figure snorted coldly.
