"So you said that and left?"
"Yes. There is no need for further conversation with Xue Wang. He's indeed affected by either Eyes or Head's corruption, but that was his fault. He's a leader of the biggest faction in Central Plains. How could he allow their worst enemy to control his emotion and thought? This is beyond shameful."
Leo laughed as he sipped wine and enjoyed a rare moment of peace in the Royal Estate.
After walking away from Xue Yang, he went and met the Emperor, who asked him for his report on the bandit extermination. He didn't bother to disguise anymore and showed his insignia to the guard, who immediately led him to the Emperor.
Inside a luxurious room that was filled with golden decorations and expensive paintings, Leo explained the situation to the Emperor. He sat on a couch opposite of him and the servants began to put various dishes on the table.
The Emperor listened to him and nodded.
