Hearing what Xia said, the countenance of everyone present changed drastically. No one wanted to die, especially when most of them had completed the second transition. They could be said to have reached the pinnacle of their lives, and even if they did not do any more things in the future, they would be able to enjoy good fortune for their entire lifetimes. How could they possibly be unafraid to die?
However, Governor Devitt shouted furiously, "Xia, I don't care what feuds you have with Fang Xingjian. He's a second transition Knight conferred by the Empire, a student of the Great Western Region Regional Academy. If you wish to kill him, you'll be pitting yourself against the entire Empire.
"Take a look at what you're doing right now! If His Majesty were to know of this, he would definitely be overcome by fury and wipe out the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon completely!"
