Wu smiled. “You must know that you can’t leave here alive today. What’s your question? I’ll tell you before you die.”
The servant said calmly, “Why do you do this to Tianji Sect? Even though it’s powerful, it can’t compete with the imperial court. You’re bringing disaster on our sect. Why do you do this?”

Hearing the servant’s words, Wu sneered. “Betray our nation? Haha. I just don’t like the present emperor. I didn’t betray our nation. I only hope that the emperor can be changed. As for Eastern Darkness… Haha. I’m just working with them. They won’t have the chance to invade our nation.”

The servant shook his head with a bitter smile. “Mistress, you are so naive. People of Eastern Darkness are ambitious. Working with them will just put you in great danger. Do you think you can stop them from invading our nation? Mistress, it’s not as simple as think! I believe that once our army is defeated, our nation will be controlled by Eastern Darkness! They have millions of troops. How can you stop them? Do you think some martial artists can stop them? If that really happens, who will suffer? Everyone in our nation will suffer!”

“No.” The servant interrupted Wu. “Mistress, something must have happened in the headquarters. If you don’t believe it, you can go back and have a look. Mistress, you have been used. Now, the imperial court has decided to eradicate Tianji Sect. I’m afraid that Eastern Darkness will also give up on us! It’s possible that they’re waiting for us to fight against the imperial court. Then both sides will suffer.”

The servant pled, “Mistress, I’m always here and you can kill me at any time. However, I’ve been living in Tianji Sect since childhood. It’s like my home. I don’t want it to be destroyed by others. Mistress, please go back and have a look. Something must’ve happened to our leader!”

“Spare her life?” Shi glanced at the servant indifferently. “You are so loyal, but it’s a pity that Wu Xiangyuan must die. She dares to plot against me, so I must kill her. As for Tianji Sect, it depends on your decision.”
