Throughout the journey back to the palace, Tie Butian could not stop frowning. As he sat inside his carriage, his expression was surprising… one of shock.
I merely wanted to be the first to know how he's doing in Great Zhao; whether or not he's in any danger and if his plans were taking place smoothly. Facing such immense pressure, I just wanted to know if he could handle it… That's all…

"Both are pitiful people." Tie Butian let out a sigh. Subconsciously, he had just mouthed these words out loud.
"What is His Majesty's order?" The two shadow guards asked in unison, "Both are pitiful people? Who are you referring to?"
"It's nothing." Tie Butian's quiet and embarrassed voice came from within the carriage.
The two shadow guards nodded their heads and disappeared.
