Chapter 0680 Main Forces Deployed
A few days earlier, Emperor Jianwu had threatened Shen Ziyu with similar words, instilling a considerable trepidation in him. Now, Emperor Jianwu deliberately resorted to the same tactic, hoping to intimidate Pan into retreat with his words, just as he had with Shen.
However, Emperor Jianwu had underestimated Pan. With a cold smile, Pan said, "Lord Jianwu, spare yourself the effort. Trying to drive a wedge between us and Manager Chen with such petty schemes is futile. My demand for all of you to withdraw from the Saint's Tomb and to hand over the murderer of Shen Ziyu is essentially the same punishment. Do not attempt to separate one option as if it would make any difference. I demand once again that you immediately vacate the Saint's Tomb and leave its handling to us. By doing so, we may still impose a lighter punishment for your harboring of the murderer. However, if you persist in your obstinacy, do not blame me for my lack of courtesy."
