"Thinking of leaving?" Xiao Yunfeng said sinisterly.
It was all because of this woman's restlessness that things had reached this point. With Xiao Ce gone, what support did he have left? As Emperor, he depended entirely on Xiao Ce.

Those who coveted their position were most wary of Xiao Ce, the former Emperor, who possessed both courage and strategy.
Ms. Yang met Xiao Yunfeng's bloodshot eyes. She shivered and quickly stepped back.
Xiao Yunfeng advanced a few steps, forcing Ms. Yang to retreat into Fengqi Palace.
