Having felt the Fire Emperor's rage, the crowd turned towards him curiously.
The Water Empress had an extremely calm look across her face as she smiled out and shook her head, "Fire Emperor, you're mistaken. Hong Yan will not interfere with the feud between the both of you."
When the Fire Emperor heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He wasn't worried that the Water Empress would dissolve the spells of the Sacred Grounds. Instead, he was worried that the Water Empress would put a nail in the coffin by making an enemy out of the Fire Nation.
At this point, the Fire Nation's Dragon Veins had been disturbed and was at a point where the Nation was extremely weak. Thus, losing a powerful ally in the Water Nation would place them in a vulnerable state which could be potentially dangerous. Hence, he hoped that the Water Nation wouldn't turn against him, for that could be fatal at this juncture.
