The fierce sun was obscured by thick clouds, and the woods gradually darkened.

Qi Yutai's chilling voice rang in his ear, "What does the Marshal mean by that?"
"Does Young Master Qi not understand?"
He smiled faintly, his gaze turning to Qi Yutai, as a murderous intent began to accumulate in his eyes, "I said, one should not kneel to a beast."
The sarcasm in his words was heard by everyone present, and Qi Yutai's face darkened, "You!"
"Young Master Qi," his fingers whitened as he gripped the hilt of his saber, cutting off Qi Yutai's words, "The Empress Dowager spends her years at Wan'en Temple praying and meditating on Buddhist teachings, her being clear and untainted. Yet you use the Empress Dowager's name to let beasts commit acts that harm the heavens and reason, ruining the royal family's reputation."
