"State Preceptor!"
Above the Imperial Court, the young Emperor displayed his sharp edge against the Elders' Power for the first time, and in an instant, excitement stirred within everyone present—save for Li Yankong, whose mind was completely elsewhere.
"I request you to explain this... exactly what is this?"
"Your Majesty wishes me to explain?" Master Zhang said with a smile, looking at the Emperor.
The Emperor was taken aback, and seeing the mockery in the other's eyes, a surge of malice sprouted within him as he gritted his teeth and said, "Does this matter not warrant an explanation from the State Preceptor?"
"The matter is indeed not trivial," the State Preceptor said with a laugh. "However, Your Majesty truly doesn't merit further explanation from me."
"Impudent!!"
The heads of the several Great Noble Families almost shouted in unison, their eyes revealing even greater excitement!
