"Explore the secret realm? If I'm not mistaken, half of the key is still with me, right?"
There was sudden amusement in Dong Huang's voice.
"...Yes."
Feng Qing'an sharply sensed danger, but even if he had, it was of no use.
"What manner do you plan on using to steal the key from me?"
"Didn't you say to take it as I please?"
Feng Qing'an felt a chill sweep across his entire body, unable to stop his legs from trembling.
"Did I? I don't seem to recall!"
A cold voice sounded somewhat confused, as if the Ghost Nation monarch truly never said such a thing.
"You…"
Feng Qing'an was wide-eyed and speechless. He had never dreamed that Dong Huang would play such a hand, denying his words,
"For a respected monarch like you, how can you go back on your word?"
"My respectable consort, do you know the crime of slandering the king?"
