"How did it go?" a hoarse voice emerged from the black fog.
Upon hearing this, the Martial Emperor fell silent for a moment before responding, "I failed!"
As his words fell, the black fog shook violently, causing the entire chamber to tremble slightly. A terrifying power seeped out, pressing fiercely upon the Martial Emperor. In the face of this, the Martial Emperor dared not use his strength to resist and could only bow his head, silently enduring. Soon, his flesh cracked, and blood flowed from the wounds.
After a moment, the terrifying pressure vanished, and the hoarse voice spoke from within once more, "I demand an explanation!"
"The Demon-Subduing Division suddenly gained an expert of the Grandmaster Realm who could summon the power of heavenly thunder. I was caught off guard and heavily struck by the heavenly thunder. All the accompanying Demon Evils perished within it," the Martial Emperor explained, allowing his flesh to slowly heal itself as he spoke.
