Fu Zongchen's flesh had congealed into a meatball, but without any support, it was hard to maintain its round shape and had already started to collapse.
Li Ming looked on, seemingly taking a long time to react. He tugged at the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to smile, but then he quickly sighed mournfully and through clenched teeth said, "How can someone be so brazen!"
"To actually assassinate a candidate member in such a grand manner, it's utterly lawless!"
His voice wasn't quiet and attracted several glances. Everyone seemed speechless and shook their heads in silence.
He's still just a kid, too naïve, almost laughing out there.
They didn't feel anything unusual, though. With Wu Yanqing and Fu Zongchen being enemies, as Wu Yanqing's student, feeling joy at Fu Zongchen's death was normal.
Even many knew about "Fierce Dragon" and "Ashes," so they found it even more understandable.
Many officials present also felt a secret joy but didn't show it.
