As expected, when Latis heard the words "Master," his expression noticeably panicked. He glanced nervously into the depths of the darkness, as if something there was holding his heart hostage.
Li Xin observed it all. She had been secretly watching Latis' every move, and seeing his unusual demeanor now, she immediately shouted sternly, "Latis! What exactly are you hiding?!"
Latis snapped back to reality, a trace of panic flashing in his eyes. He hurriedly defended himself, "Miss, don't listen to his nonsense. How... how could I possibly betray the great leader? I am faithful to the great leader, heaven and earth can testify!"
However, his words carried an undeniable hint of guilt. Li Xin stared at him intently, her eyes flashing with cold light. "Latis, the great leader has treated you like family, why would you do such a treacherous thing?!" Her voice was cold and firm, like a sharp sword piercing Latis' heart.
