Inside the capital of Tianlan Kingdom, the flames of war reached to the skies.
A blood-soaked figure rushed into the Golden Throne Hall, wailing, "Your Majesty, the Great General has fallen in battle, the city gates have been breached, we, we have lost..."
Boom!
As the current King of Tianlan Kingdom, Xu Zhengnan, sat on the Dragon Throne, upon hearing the news, his whole body violently shook, nearly toppling from his seat.
"Lost? We have lost..."
Xu Zhengnan abruptly stood up, his eyes bloodshot with fury, glaring at the silent ministers below, "Have you all gone mute? Huh? When you were all eager to persuade me to agree to Xue Yilou's demands, to send troops to attack Tianqing Kingdom and divide it up, weren't you very vocal then? Why are you all silent now?"
The ministers bowed their heads even lower.
Bang!
